Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 934
Stella's hand that was holding her phone paused as she immediately noticed Keegan's jealousy.
'Does this dumb man really think I have a crush on Trevor?'
Stella rolled her eyes and suddenly started acting.
She sighed and said, "I'd be lying if I said I have absolutely no feelings for him. He was once my crush, after all."
Keegan kept quiet.
Then, he said in a deep voice, "Why did you reject him and come with me then?"
"Because..." Stella drawled before whispering into Keegan's ear, "Because someone looked so sad and disappointed, as if he
would start crying if I didn't come with him. I couldn't bear to see that."
Keegan paused and was delighted. He wrapped his arm around Stella's waist and held her chin with another. Then, he gritted
his teeth and said," Who's going to cry?"
Stella chuckled and pinched his ear. "Were you worried that I'd go with him? N
Keegan turned her head and kissed the back of her hand. 'I'll understand if you go with him because of work." He paused before
continuing, "I suddenly realized how you felt when I couldn’t make it to our date because of work after waiting for me last time."
Stella was a little surprised. "How did you feel?"
Keegan said softly, "From filled with joy to completely empty inside. From feeling excited to feeling disappointed."
"How poetic of you." Stella chuckled. "Actually, waiting isn't scary, but waiting for nothing is."
Keegan paused and hugged her tighter. "I won't make you wait anymore."
Stella said, "Let's see how well you'll do. After all, I can still terminate you after your probation period ends."
Keegan kept quiet.
"What do you feel like eating?"

Keegan asked Stella.
Stella thought for a while. "Why don't we just stick to the lie? Julian is leaving soon anyway. Let's buy some gifts and pay him and
Ms. Cooke a visit. What do you think?"
Keegan said, "Sure. You're the boss."
Stella took her phone and dialed Julian's number. She told him they would bring some food and have a barbecue tonight. She
also asked him to clean the yard and prepare the tools.
Julian replied with an "OK" emoji very soon after that.
Then, Aldor drove them to a nearby mall.
They bought some ingredients at the supermarket, and Aldor carried the bags back to the car. Then, Stella grabbed Keegan's
arms and took him to shop in the mall.
They dressed very casually. Stella was wearing a ten-dollar dress that Felicity bought from an online shop. It was too tight for
Felicity, and she could not wear it. She did not return it because the shipping fees were costly, so she gave it to Stella.
Even though it was a cheap dress, its material was surprisingly soft and cooling. Stella wanted to wear it to sleep, but it looked
good on her after she put it on, so she kept wearing it out.
Keegan was not wearing anything fancy too. He had a shirt and a pair of long pants on. Stella bought them for him, and they cost
around a hundred dollars. His outfit was not considered very expensive because any working person would be able to afford
that. However, he made them look like expensive garments because of how good-looking he was.
Stella wanted to buy some gifts for Shelley and those kids in the welfare center, but she could not stop herself from going to the
women's section after circling around for a while.
Women just could not get enough clothes, and Stella was no exception.
She walked past a shop and could not take her eyes off the plastic mannequin inside. Keegan was talking to her, but he felt she
was not listening. He finally realized why.
"Let's have a look inside, shall we?" Keegan asked.

Stella refused. "It's okay. We're supposed to be buying gifts for the kids."
Keegan said, "But the big kid here hasn't bought new clothes in a long time."
