Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Chapter 26

Only then did Stella recognize the man she had met on the rooftop of Rotona Pinnacle Hospital. She shook her head in response to his question. The pregnant woman’s eyes turned red with anger. “You bitch! Do you think I’m scared of you now that someone has come to your rescue? Try me!” Stella wanted to respond, but Marshall stopped her.

He took his phone out and said, “I have proof of you hitting her on my phone. Although you’ll only be sentenced to a minimal crime punishment because you’re pregnant and you have nothing to fear, what do you think would happen if I put this on the internet? Do you think people would let you go just because you have a baby in you? Your child is going to be criticized before they’re even born. Do you think they could live safely after that?”

The woman’s face changed, as she was scared. Marshall handed her a business card and said, “Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I’m a journalist, which also means I have the power to spread this news around.” The woman did not dare to retaliate, so she just bit the bullet and said, “You got lucky.” She walked away while holding her belly after saying that.

Marshall turned around, and his dominating manner dissipated in an instant. His gaze turned somewhat warm. “You’re hurt,” he said, pointing at Stella’s neck. She opened the camera app on her phone to look at it and saw that there were bloody scratches on her neck.

“Let’s take care of that. I have a first aid kit in my car.” Stella felt like she could not reject his kindness, so she said in a low voice, ” Alright. Sorry for the trouble.” Marshall smiled and said, “It’s nothing.” After the both of them got into his car, Marshall dug out some disinfectant to clean her wound. “I’ll do it,” Stella softly said, unnaturally avoiding his help as Marshall handed her the kit.
