Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Leighton: [Fool! Keegan is the one who should be calling you that!]
Trevor: [I'm going to talk to that scum now. @Dad, say something!]
Five minutes passed.
Wenham: [Could you all type a bit slower?]
Another five minutes later.
Wenham: [When did you become pregnant?!]
Trevor was speechless.
Trevor: [How about we have a video call instead?]
So, everyone initiated a group video call.
The once agitated group turned concerned.
Trevor was the first to speak. "Stella, when did you find out? Have you been to the hospital for a checkup? Is the baby okay?”
Wenham followed, "Stella, having a baby is a big deal.
Why are we only hearing about this now? You've seemed thinner lately. Is morning sickness affecting your appetite?"
Trevor added, “Maybe that scumbag upset her too much!
The baby will have our family's last name. Keegan won't have a say!"
Leighton chimed in, "Stella, you were in ice water for a while before. Will it affect the baby?”
Katherine said, “Stella, come back to Royalburgh. I have friends in maternal and child health care here. Your grandparents miss
you a lot. Why not come back to live here? You can return after you've recovered from giving birth.”
Daryl chimed in, "I'll adjust my schedule and fly a plane to you now. We'll be back here before you know it."
It was finally Noah's turn to speak, “Stella, I'm on winter break. I'll fly to see you and the baby! I also plan to visit Nicole.”

Leighton scolded him, "Brat, when did you start contacting that woman again? She might try to sell you to a human trafficker!”
Noah retorted, "Nicole said she'd only do that to you. She told me a kid like me won't fetch much, but a good- looking and
clueless guy like you will.”
"Fuck!" Leighton cursed.
"What did you just say?" His parents reacted
"What did you just say?" His parents reacted immediately. Leighton then muted his microphone and exited the group video call.
After that, everyone turned their attention back to Stella.
Stella explained, "I just found out about this, and I hadn't planned to share it yet. The doctor mentioned risks for the
Stella explained, "I just found out about this, and I hadn't planned to share it yet. The doctor mentioned risks for the baby, soI
want to keep it quiet. But I felt I should let you guys know.”
She then outlined her plans.
When Wenham heard she planned to stay at Keegan's house, he expressed concern, “He can't even walk properly. Who'll take
care of you there? Come home, let
Sandra look after you. She's got nursing experience and knows what to do in emergencies.”
Initially siding with Wenham, Trevor changed his stance, "I think it’s fine for you to stay with Keegan.”
Wenham was irritated, "Whose side are you on, stupid kid?"
Stella looked down, "Dad, Trevor's right. I don't want others in the house to know about my pregnancy.”
Her intention was clear; she didn't want Darcie and Jaylene to find out.
Wenham hesitated, considering Jaylene's recent Wenham hesitated, considering Jaylene’s recent closeness to Keegan. He
suspected that was why Stella made that decision.
After a pause, he said, “If Jaylene knows about your baby, she might react negatively.”

Stella looked away, "And if she doesn't?”
Wenham was taken aback.
This was something he hadn't thought about before. 'Is it possible that Jaylene wouldn't give up despite knowing about their
child?’ he pondered silently.
In fact, Stella did not want to speak ill of Jaylene in front of Wenham because, up to now, Jaylene had not done anything out of
line.
Jaylene had saved Keegan. Although Keegan relied on her, it was his own choice. Besides, the news of her saving
Keegan's life had spread like wildfire among the people they knew.
If Jaylene did not actively cause trouble, Stella would appear to be ungrateful for sabotaging her relationship with Keegan. It
would bring embarrassment to both the Saun and Kane families. '
Wenham had raised Jaylene for over two decades. Despite the recent unpleasantness, he couldn't see her as inherently
malicious due to their deep emotional bond.
However, Stella's perspective was different. After enduring the kidnapping, she was committed to considering worst- case
scenarios to protect her family's safety.
After giving it some thought, she found a suitable excuse. ” Dad, maybe my abduction and Mom's tragic death during childbirth
weren't just accidents. The truth hasn't surfaced until now. I'm really worried I might meet the same fate as Mom..."
