Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1290
Stella gritted her teeth and swallowed her word, "-forked
Keegan was a little taken aback when he heard that.
"@ShilohTalks is like a mad dog! She's completely unhinged and attacks people at random. Despite the presented evidence,
she's resorting to playing the emotion card. How is the kindergarten’s performance related to my family's land? We're talking
about one thing, yet she's talking about another. It's all just a deliberate attempt to confuse and manipulate the people while
trying to stir up conflict!"
When Stella finished her rant, Keegan finally chimed in." What kind of soup would you like?"
Stella raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you gonna join in and say a few words?" she asked.
"Why waste time evaluating such trash? It's not like it'll change things." Keegan responded calmly.
Stella blinked in surprise.
'If I understand this correctly, Keegan is saying no matter how much we analyze @ShilohTalks's post, it won't change the fact
that it's rubbish,' she thought.
"So, What kind of soup do you want?" Keegan asked for the third time.
"Corn chowder, please," Stella finally responded.
Keegan added two soups to the order on the tablet and pressed confirmed. Soon after, a serving staff brought out their dishes
and told them to enjoy their meal before leaving the private dining room.
Keegan draped a napkin over his lap, picked up his knife and fork, and carved his steak skillfully. His dining etiquette was
impeccable, as his knife never grazed the plate. Stella, however, made various sounds when she cut her food.
Keegan quickly finished cutting his steak, handed it to Stella, and said, "Here, take this one. I'll take the other."
Stella looked up and chuckled, "Oh. I'm not used to getting this treatment from you."
Keegan grabbed the other plate and nonchalantly responded, "I've always been this considerate. You just never noticed."

Stella was confused by his statement. "Since when were you ever considerate to me before the divorce?"
"I peeled shrimps for you, didn't I?" said Keegan.
"You handed me shrimp shells!" Stella immediately retorted.
Keegan paused for a moment before he countered, "Well, you said you enjoyed sucking on the shells."
Stella could not believe her ears. She did not see it as a thoughtful gesture. "Remember how I would ask you to deshell
sunflower seeds for me, and you never did?"
Keegan scoffed and said nothing else.
"Lost for words, huh?" Stella snorted.
Keegan glanced at her and said, "Seems like your memory is failing you."
Keegan had deshelled sunflower seeds for Stella before. One New Year's Eve back at the old house, he had peeled a bunch of
seeds for her while they were watching TV. She took one look, claimed that he had gotten his drool on them, and refused to eat
them. 'This ungrateful woman!' he thought.
They savored their leisurely meal uninterrupted. Once their appetites were satisfied, Stella could not resist grabbing her phone to
check what was happening online. To her surprise, her attention was soon grabbed by a trending hashtag.
