Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 211
“But, that doesn’t guarantee a hundred percent protection,” said Stella. “With our divorce impending, I don’t want to take any
chances. The thought of having an abortion at the hospital and the pain it would cause just terrifies me.”
Keegan felt uneasy. He cleared his throat and said, “When that happens, no one will force to get an abortion. We can keep the
baby.”

Stella paused and turned to face Keegan. She then spoke in a serious tone. “Keegan, I don’t want my child to share their father’s
love with anyone else. If I do end up pregnant, I won’t want to have the baby.” Stella did not want her child to go through the
same thing that she had experienced.
Keegan’s heart suddenly constricted. His face suddenly turned sulky, as he said, “Then, that would be great. I wouldn’t want a
burden during the divorce either!”
With that, Keegan walked away with a serious expression. His arm accidentally knocked over a plant, and a pot of freesia
tumbled to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Stella watched him leave the rooftop before picking up the broken pot. Suddenly, her movements stopped when she noticed a
few drops of blood on the spot where Keegan had been standing.
Only then did she realize that Keegan had not fully recovered from the injury, and the strain from holding her all the way back just
to put up a show with her must have reopened the wound on his arm.
Stella’s heart tightened. When she was about to go after him, she heard the sound of Keegan’s car engine starting and driving
away. So, she paused her step and ultimately stayed put.
That night, Keegan did not come home, and Stella was unable to sleep peacefully.
The next morning, she rose from her bed upon hearing some commotion downstairs. Keegan, who had just stepped into the
house, saw her. He had a blank expression on his face as he walked straight past her and headed to the refrigerator to grab a
bottle of water.

Stella noticed that Keegan was not wearing the same clothes he had worn the night before, indicating that he did not stay at a
hotel.
She hesitated and softly asked, “Have you had breakfast? What would you like to eat? How’s your wound? Have you changed
the bandage?
Keegan tightened his grip on the bottle and sneered, “Mrs. Kane, there’s no need to put on a show with just the two of us here.”
She masked her sadness and acted nonchalant as she responded, “Your quick recovery means you can return to work, gain
control of the company, and ultimately, I can divorce you sooner and receive my share. So, I assure you, this is not just an act.”

Keegan’s expression turned dark, and after a long pause, he said, “You’re so selfish, Stella Jewell. All you ever think about is
yourself!” He threw the empty bottle into the trash can and went upstairs with an impassive face.
Stella felt a pang of sadness. She sniffled softly as she opened the refrigerator and took out a
container of pelmeni that she had made a few days ago. Then, she started cooking them on the
stove.
When Stella was almost done cooking the pelmeni, she received a notification on her phone. It was a post from Bella on social
media. Stella hesitated before tapping the screen to view it.
The post showed a picture of a bloody bandage with the caption, “Feeling sad.” Stella could see a rabbit hairpin on the bandage,
which she had used to secure the bandage in place so it would not come loose. She pursed her lips, and her emotions welled up
inside her.
‘So, he has someone to care for him,’ she thought as she chuckled bitterly to herself. She then turned off the stove, changed her
clothes, and headed out.
At Stella and Felicity’s agreed meeting place, Stella was absentmindedly stirring her coffee. Suddenly, Felicity rushed in with a
companion. Stella only became aware of their presence when they approached her table.
“What’s wrong? Did you have trouble sleeping last night?” Felicity teased Stella before turning to the woman next to her. “She’s
Stella, the bestie I told you about, the one looking for an assistant.”

Stella snapped out of her thoughts and gestured for them to take a seat.
Felicity introduced, “Stella, this is Shea Cheel. She’s four years older than us. I’ve been calling her Shea.” She added, “You
called me early in the morning to make an appointment. Luckily, Shea is available. Why did you get up so early?
“I couldn’t sleep last night, so I woke up early,” said Stella before looking at Shea.
As Felicity had previously mentioned, Shea was thirty years old, which was not that old. However, the stress of raising a child
might have taken a toll on her appearance, making her look haggard for someone her age.
Shea was petite, standing around five feet tall. Her skin tone was not particularly fair, and she was average in appearance.
However, she was well-groomed, which made her quite pleasing to the eye.
