Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1136
"Says the one who wasn't even there," Trevor grunted. The anger in his heart subsided after seeing that Keegan did not have a
comeback. He even tried to add more fuel to the fire by saying, "Marshall's a reliable man. Not to mention, my grandparents like
him. He'd be a much better candidate for marriage than you."
Keegan's eyelids twitched at the sound of that. "Don't you even... Stella doesn't like him like that!"
"She's just saying that because you're here. I bet she would fall for Marshall if you broke things off with her and let them spend
one-on-one time together. What do you say?"
Trevor's suggestion did not provoke Keegan. "No," the man said in the firmest tone.
"You wimp!" Trevor berated him. As soon as he said that, he could hear Stella's voice coming from the other line. "Why is Mr.
Saun scolding you again?"
Keegan looked up, and his tone immediately turned soft, "I don't know... Maybe because he doesn't like me..."
Trevor was at a loss for words. 'What an asshole!' He thought. However, Trevor did not poke fun at Keegan anymore. Instead, he
asked, "Stella, how are you? Why can't I reach you on the phone?"
"I'm fine. I was receiving too many messages and incoming calls, so I turned it off. I've replied to Kaiden, though. Didn't
he tell you?"
"He did, but I was still worried and had to hear you say it."
Stella laughed and said, "I'm not a weakling. But... I'm sorry for causing trouble to the company again."
"It's no trouble." Trevor's face darkened at the thought of the person who started the whole thing. "Get some rest. We'll handle
the public."
"Mr. Saun," Stella called out. Trevor paused and asked," What's wrong?"
Stella opened her mouth and hesitated for a moment. After a while, she said, "Nothing. I just wanted to say that you should get
some rest."

Trevor smiled and said, "You too."
After hanging up the phone, Keegan gauged Stella's expression and asked in a low voice, "Were you going to tell him about your
plan?"
Stella nodded.
"Why didn't you tell him?"
"I can't. No matter what, Bella is still the top actress in Elegant Media. My plan is going to compromise his interest.
I just know he wouldn't agree to it."
'He'd probably give you the moon and the stars if you ask for it. What's a little loss of profit?' thought Keegan. 'But... the less
people know about the plan, the better. I mean, what if someone on Trevor's side leaks it to the media?'
Stella was a very responsible mentor for teaching Keegan how to cook even though she was injured. Keegan was confident in
his skills, but Stella's frantic voice filled the kitchen.
"Are you throwing the fish into the pot or shooting hoops? Why are you standing so far away from the stove?"
"Turn it over, turn it over! It's going to burn! What are you doing?!"
"Ahh! I told you to add water! What did you put in there?!"
Stella could not help but ask a soul-crushing question at the end of the day, "How did you have the confidence to say that you're
a good learner?"
Keegan stayed quiet. 'Let's just say that learning to cook and learning to do other things are completely different.'
Not long after, the fish stew was done. The dish was placed on the table, and the couple sat across from each other. Keegan
grabbed a ladle and filled up a bowl of stew for Stella, but she politely pushed it toward him and said," You've worked really hard
cooking this. You first."
