Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173

A familiar voice came from the other end of the line when the call patched through.

To his surprise, it was Marshall

Keegan clenched his jaw and pursed his lips, not saying anything

Having received no reply from that end, Marshall hesitated for a while before he called out, Keegan?”

Keegan then gave a short “Yes” as a reply.

Marshall said, “Why can’t your phone be reached?”

“No battery left “Keegan paused. “Are you looking for Stella?”

”

Marshall smiled. “I’m looking for you. I could not reach your phone, so I tried calling Stella instead ”

‘Stella

Keegan pondered over the name as he pressed his lips.

“Is there anything you need?”

Marshall’s cleared his voice. “I’ve been busy these few days. When Aurora brought up the topic of your injury when I chatted with her this morning, I went to Vermont for further details. How are you feeling? Are you better now?”

Keegan pinched his eyebrows and said, “I’m fine.”

“Vermont said the person had been caught. Do you need my help?”

Marshall’s connections would definitely be able to let those two face prosecution.

“I’ll contact you again if there’s a need to.”

As soon as Keegan finished speaking, Stella drowsily opened her eyes. “Who is it? Why are you on the line for so long?”

Her voice had a coarse undertone from just waking up, startling Marshall.

Keegan looked at her and said indifferently, “Marshall.” After a pause, he asked, “Do you want to speak with him?”

She then said, “I don’t think I’ll be going. I have to stay home to take care of my husband’s broken arm.’

The corner of Keegan’s eyes twitched.

Who was it that said his wounds were not severe?

Marshall did not force the matter. “Alright, then. Take good care of Keegan. I’ll come over once I’m finished.”

After hanging up the phone, she saw Keegan looking at her quizzically.

Stella, in hindsight, moved sluggishly toward him as she recalled yesterday.

‘I really shouldn’t have drunk last night. I became indecisive once Keegan started teasing me. To think I came onto him when Keegan let me, using his injured arm as an excuse!’

It was better to forget about the past.

Right now, all she wanted to do was discard all the embarrassing moments from last night.

“Why is Marshall called Fifty Million?”
