Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 324
After Aurora had sent Stella to the room, Stella never came out of it. She could not have entered Jackson’s room unless Aurora
had led her there in the first place.
It was Stella’s first time at the Kane residence after she got married. She did not even know where Keegan’s room was. So, it
was clear that Aurora had led her in there. But, no matter how she tried to explain herself, Dahlia believed she had too much to
drink, and her memory was
skewed.
Stella was young and energetic back then and was determined to prove her innocence. She even said that she would go to
Cordelia and ask her to investigate this matter clearly.
Dahlia’s expression changed upon hearing this. She told Stella that this incident was ridiculous and embarrassing. If she were to
bring the problem to Cordelia, she would only find that she had an affair with Jackson on her wedding night. She told her that no
matter the truth, the incident would be a great shame and humiliation to Keegan, and no one would look good if the issue got out
of control:
Stella was too young to fight back at that time. She retreated once Dahlia mentioned Keegan’s name. She feared that he would
think of her badly like these people did. Stella did not care about other people’s opinions, but she cared about Keegan’s.
Dahlia told her that it would embarrass the family if she told anyone about it to ensure that she would stay quiet. Jackson, of
course, did not speak out about molesting his sister-in-law.
When Stella thought about it later, she suddenly realized that Dahlia did not want her to raise the matter because she wanted to
protect Aurora. The truth was bound to come out if someone investigated the case.
Stella wanted to tell Keegan about it multiple times, but she was unsure if anything would happen since Aurora was his younger
sister. He would be defensive at most and deny it, or he would probably blame Stella for the incident, just like Dahlia did.
Both endings made no difference to her. Slowly, the more time passed, the lesser she wanted to mention it. So, when Keegan
asked about it in the present, she only brushed over it lightly. Keegan frowned. He could clearly see that Stella’s expression had
changed when he asked about Jackson, but she did not want to tell him about what happened. This made Keegan a little
unhappy. He did not like it when Stella refused to tell him what was on her mind. Cordelia’s room was huge, and this was Stella’s
first time in it. It was clear that she and Keegan had similar preferences since they both had wall shelves for their books.

Keegan rummaged around in the cabinet and found the ointment Cordelia was talking about. He then took Stella to the second-
floor sunroom to help him with the medication.
Stella applied the ointment on him with a cotton swab and said, “Grandma loves you so much that she doesn’t forget to take care
of your wound even when you guys argue. You are much more pampered than Jackson. Look up.”
Keegan tilted his head upward and calmly said, “Isn’t it always like this with old people? How many days has your grandpa
treated you for your stiff neck?”
Stella’s eyes softened a bit when Keegan mentioned Arthur. “Grandpa just called and said he
made chicken soup again. He asked when we would be back.”
The corners of Keegan’s eyes twitched. “I have to do overtime tonight.”
“Grandpa will be disappointed,” Stella sighed. She was about to screw the lid back on the ointment when Keegan took her arm
and stopped her. “Come here,” he said.
“What?”
Keegan then pinched her elbow and asked, “Does it hurt?”
