Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 745
Stella had no tears left to cry after Rainee passed away. She thought that she would never cry again in her life if not required by
work.
However, Keegan repeatedly apologizing made broke her down.
What happened that night had never stopped bothering her. She was afraid she would find somebody else sleeping beside her
after switching off the lights at night. So she would always leave a light on in her bedroom every night.
She was scared that Keegan would touch her and get rough in the sheets with her as even a tiny movement could remind her of
the night that turned her stomach upside down. She just could not forgive Keegan for leaving her alone on their wedding night,
and it was impossible for her to let it go.
Keegan stoked Stella's back as he felt like his heart was being stabbed many times.
Material things that he gave Stella were something worth the least to her. She wanted affection, trust, and protection. Yet he
failed to give her any.
Keegan finally knew why she gave him a negative score. He could not expect her to forgive him easily after he and his family
hurt her. He wanted to ask why Stella did not tell Cordelia about it since she was always reasonable.
Then, he figured out the answer himself.
Stella came to the Kane family all alone. To her, everybody else was a part of the family, and she was the only outsider who did
not share the same last name as them. So, there was no way she could be sure that Cordelia would be on her side.
She was so isolated and helpless in the Kane family, full of threats.
The Jewell Group was in crisis, and Albert wanted to stop paying for Rainee's medical bills in the year when they got married.
So, she did not dare to make a scene out of what happened. Also, Stella would have no idea what to do if Keegan chose his
family's reputation over her and dumped her.
Keegan repeatedly thought about the past and felt a dull ache in his chest.
He let go of Stella and bowed his forehead to touch Stella's forehead. Then, he wiped away the tears in the corner of her eyes
before saying in a hoarse voice with his red eyes, "I'm not going to let this slide. I swear."

Stella pushed him away. She recollected herself and said after a while, "That's your business. It's your choice to do whatever you
want, but please don't get me involved. I don't want you to blame me for instigating you to take revenge on Aurora and your mom
when you regretted doing so in the future. I'll get them back by myself. It's entirely based on your ethical perspective if you want
to defend and punish
them. It should not have anything to do with me."
Keegan replied softly, "I understand."
Stella gave in anyway and did not cut ties entirely with Keegan. She wanted him to judge those people based on his moral
compass and not do anything to avenge her just because he felt guilty.
Stella said those things to give Keegan a heavy blow and let him know what kind of person Aurora was, but emotions got the
best of her after talking about it.
She had been keeping it to herself for too long. She hurt Keegan's feelings as she told him about what happened, but she also
twisted the knife in her own wound.
Keegan reached out, brushed her hair at the side of her face, and said in a low voice, "I'll drive you home now."
Stella said, "I need to call Mr. Moore first."
Keegan frowned and said in a slightly unhappy tone, "He doesn't have time for you now."
Stella paused. "Do you know where he is?"
Keegan pursed his lips. "How would I know? I just want to take you home as soon as possible. Didn't you say staying late is bad
for your skin?"
"But I still have to call him." Stella glanced at the jealous man. "Mr. Moore tried to protect me too. I don't know if the boiling water
splashed on him."
Keegan was very upset. However, something else popped into his head.
'Would Stella still be calm enough to listen to my words if Marshall really did save her from getting burned by the boiling water
just now?'

Keegan eyes darkened.
Stella dialed Marshall's number, and it took him some time to pick up.
Mr. Moo-Marshall, it's me. Are you not at the hospital?"
Marshall sounded a little tired. "I had something else to do back home and went back. I'm sorry for not letting you know earlier.
How's it going over there? Is Leighton okay?"
