Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Chapter 12

a little more honest?’ The value of all the business deals that Keegan was involved in was at least ten billion. It was not surprising that his business partners gifted him expensive luxury goods. Last year, someone even gave him a pair of opal earrings. It was not cheap. Stella was quite happy when Keegan gifted her the earrings. When she lost the earrings at a party, she was so sad that she could not even eat for a few days. And, she was even lampooned by Keegan as a disappointment. But, he did not know that she cared so much about the earrings because they were gifted to her by him. ‘Now that I think about it, to Keegan, this box is just a useless thing that was given to him. And, he just simply tossed it to me. It was not his intention to gift this to me. And, he doesn’t care about giving me a present either.’ Stella closed the box and slipped it back to him. “We’ll split these during the division of matrimonial assets when we divorce. That way, I don’t need to return these back to you.” Aldor was shocked! Keegan’s face suddenly darkened. “Stella! What are you talking about? Who are you to request a divorce? Who are you to get a split of my assets? I’m the one who feeds you, clothes you, and houses you. After we divorce, you can’t live a comfortable life like this anymore. Can you adapt to it? Even staying alive would be a problem for you!” Stella’s fingers trembled. Whenever she thought she would not care about what Keegan said anymore, he would hurt her with harsh words again.

Stop this insulting behavior immediately!” “Thank you, Mr. Kane, for being so forgiving and giving me this chance. But, I’m too lowly and not worthy to accept it. You should give this opportunity to someone else who needs it.” Keegan’s anger spiked. “Stella! I’ve been spoiling you again and again. Enough is enough. Don’t push your luck!” “I’m a person who likes to push my luck. Keegan, why don’t we make a bet?” Stella raised her eyes to stare into his eyes. She looked unprecedentedly calm. “Let’s see if I have the ability to survive after we get a divorce.” “Sure.” Keegan laughed sardonically. “I’d like to see how you suffer without me! Aldor, stop the car!” Aldor’s hands trembled. He immediately pulled over. “Get out!” Keegan’s voice was cold and ruthless. Stella looked at the windy, lifeless, and empty road. Her heart sank.  The atmosphere was suddenly tense. Aldor quietly advised, “Mr. Kane, it’s hard to get a cab here. Let’s go to the city before
