Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 2230

Chapter 2230

Marshall idly spun the glass around before finally offering a light smile." Maybe he's seen it, or perhaps it was all just a joke." Stella lowered her gaze and remained silent.

Glancing at a group of children nearby, Marshall suddenly inquired, "Is the little girl from the memorial service still with the Kane family?"

Stella nodded. "Keegan brought her to the mansion."

Marshall appeared somewhat surprised. "Weren't they supposed to hand her over to her relatives?"

Stella explained, "Aldor mentioned that the child lost all her immediate family, and no other relatives were willing to take her. Keegan was worried about sending her to an orphanage, so he decided to keep her by his side for the time being."

Taking a sip of tea, Marshall asked, "Have you all not considered putting her up for adoption?"

Stella chuckled softly. "I did bring it up once with Keegan, and we ended up arguing. He accused me of not being able to accept a child. If it weren't for the paternity test I arranged between him and the child, I might have believed she was his biological daughter. He treasures her immensely.

Well, she's a sweet and sensible girl; well just continue to care for her."

Marshall smiled faintly. "You're quite open-minded about it."

Squinting as she glanced at someone in the distance engaged in conversation but occasionally casting glances her way, Stella remarked lightly, Actually, Keegan mentioned this child to me before his accident. But at that time, I hadn't met her. The name Keegan told me wasn't Coco; it was Heather Morrell. He said this name was given to her by Coco's mother, and she and Coco's father met when scotch heather was in full bloom."

Sighing, Stella continued, "It was supposed to be quite the romantic story, but unfortunately, the ending wasn't a good one." Marshall didn't say anything, but ripples spread across the glass in his hand, revealing his inner turmoil.

After a while, he set down the glass and said softly, "Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."

Stella nodded absentmindedly, sipping her juice.

Without the name Heather, Coco was just Coco, but Marshall first met Willow Jenning under the heather tree.

Marshall must know that Coco wasn't his child, but upon hearing the name Heather, he must have thought that Willow still had feelings for him back then. Then he would surely investigate the matter between Willow and Jayson Morrell, unraveling the mysteries surrounding Jayson. Then, the truth might not be far off.

She rubbed her forehead; regardless of whether Marshall's actions were genuine or not, he had genuinely saved her. If she had really fallen, she didn't dare think about the consequences.

Marshall was a cunning and contradictory person; he wished Keegan dead yet still saved him. He knew she was Keegan's weakness, yet he showed leniency toward her time and again.

If only he were more ruthless, she wouldn't have to worry about Keegan.

"Why are you still staring when the person is already gone!"

She heard someone gnashing their teeth beside her. Stella paused, meeting Keegan's irritated gaze, then couldn't help but chuckle, "You're so close to me; be careful not to get caught feigning amnesia."

Keegan gritted his teeth, annoyed. "I no longer want to pretend. It's all because you wanted me to 'seduce' Jaylene!"

Stella laughed and subtly hooked her fingers around his under the sleeve,■' Okay, okay, it's my fault. I made you feel wronged. I apologize. Don't be angry. Do you know that you're a godly figure in the eyes of netizens now? If they knew you threw tantrums like a child in private, they'd mock you."

"As if I would care."

"Then shall I post about how you fought for a $99 gift sock, or got jealous and had a tiff with your wife online? Or maybe share the story of how you treated your uncle as an imaginary enemy and put your father-in-law's leg on a stretcher for exercise?"

Keegan glared at her. "You wouldn't dare!"

Stella raised an eyebrow. "You said you wouldn't care."

Keegan's lips twitched slightly. He didn't want his wife to bring up his past embarrassing deeds. He quickly changed the subject, "What did you talk to him about?"
