Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

"Do I need to remember something to be mad? You didn't call me to try on any of the clothes, yet you called me over for a
freebie!” Keegan exclaimed.
His reaction rendered Stella speechless.
“That shirt isn't cheap, you know? It's originally priced at 800 dollars,” said Stella.
“I'm not short of 800 dollars,” Keegan declared with a stern face. After that, he added, "Hurry up. I'll wait for you outside.
" With that, he left the store.
‘Why is he upset for no reason?’ Stella muttered to herself. The salesperson asked if she still wanted to redeem the shirt, and
Stella replied, "Yes."
As she walked out with her items, she saw Keegan talking on the phone.
Before she walked up to him, she heard Keegan say, “I'm free tomorrow night.”
It was then that Stella's ears perked up. Keegan happened to turn around and promptly moved aside upon seeing her.
Stella was in disbelief. ‘How dare he walk away to avoid me from hearing his conversation!’
With a stern face, she asked, "How much longer will you be on the phone? Are we leaving or not?"
Keegan paused and spoke into the phone, "I'm outside, buying some things. Yeah, okay, see you tomorrow.”
Stella no longer wanted to listen in on his conversation.
Based on Keegan's tone, she could guess who was on the other end of the line.
Stella walked briskly when Keegan caught up and whispered, "Slow down. It's crowded due to the holiday. Don't bump into
anyone.”
Stella's heart ached. Although his words were caring, they weren't the same. The old Keegan would have held her hand and
coaxed her. Perhaps it was the pregnancy hormones, but Stella couldn't help feeling sad when she thought of how different
Keegan was acting. Her once-loving partner had changed, and she wanted the old him back.
Just thinking about it brought tears to her eyes.

Initially, Keegan didn't notice her crying, but while waiting for the elevator, he suddenly saw Stella's shoulders quivering slightly.
Her breathing was also heavier than before.
He hesitated, and as Stella was about to enter the elevator, he abruptly let go of his things and held her hand.
As Stella turned around to face Keegan, her tear-filled eyes immediately tugged at his heart.
Keegan was suddenly at a loss. "Wh-Why are you crying?” he asked.
Stella suppressed her heartache and said, "I'm not crying.” Tears streamed down her face despite her saying that.
Keegan felt like his heart had shattered into pieces. There was a suffocating weight pressing down on him. He didn't know what
to say, his fingers trembling slightly.
