Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Stella smacked the back of his hand and glared at him. “I texted you on WhatsApp. Didn’t you check your phone?”

“You asked me to take a good rest, right?”

Stella paused. ’I sent you a few messages. I told you I needed to do a favor for Marshall, and I was going to see you after your rest.”

Keegan frowned. “I only read the message about resting.”

The other messages were probably erased or delayed because he had to switch off his phone.

So, he lied about having a girlfriend. But, Duncan asked him to bring his girlfriend along to attend his wedding. He couldn’t find a girl, so he came to me and asked for my help. I was afraid that you’d misunderstand anything, so I called you. But, your phone was switched off.

‘Can’t find a girl?’

Keegan scoffed.

“Do you have no principles? You’re a married woman. How could you do a favor like this?”

“You’re just my boyfriend on probation.’ Stella corrected him. She paused for a moment before she continued, “Marshall was the one who handled my mother’s funeral arrangement. I just couldn’t refuse him.”
