Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 947

The next morning, Keegan woke up with a hangover and a throbbing headache. He wanted to rub his temples, but

he noticed someone was pressing onto his arm as soon as he tried to raise it. Keegan froze and turned to find Stella

lying beside him with her head resting on his upper limb.

Keegan's expression relaxed as his thumb gently stroked against her cheek. Stella found it itchy and reached out to

scratch her face. Keegan skillfully dodged her hand and continued rubbing her cheek once she went back to sleep.

Stella frowned. She got mad after not being able to catch what was grazing her face. All of a sudden, she opened

her eyes and met Keegan's gaze. The ambiance in the room was awkward yet romantic.

Stella licked her lips and explained, "You were drunk last night and wouldn't let me leave, so I stayed."

"Mhm," Keegan replied in acceptance of her statement, but his expression showed otherwise. His half-smile

seemed to be saying, "You're making this up."

Stella pursed her lips and said, "I'm telling the truth. Ask Aldor if you don't believe me.’

"Sure," Keegan gently stroked her hair and said. His eyes were drawn to her. Stella could not stand him looking at

her like that, so she reached out and covered his eyes.

"Whatever!" She gritted her teeth and said.

Keegan chuckled, pulled her hand toward his lips, and kissed it. "Were you worried that I would choke on my vomit

in my sleep?"

When Keegan opened his eyes that morning, he saw the things that Stella had placed next to him. It was not the

first time she had done something like this. Whenever Keegan came home drunk from social gatherings in the past,

Stella would take care of him even though she said she disliked it.

"Yes. I don't have a name or place in your family yet. I'm not even qualified to inherit your estate right now. It would

be a waste of my time if you died," Stella paused and said in a serious manner.

Keegan was not angry when he heard that. He even muffled a laugh for a while before he said, "Then, let's go get

that marriage certificate. You'll have a secure future with that thing if I di-"

Stella immediately put her hand over Keegan's mouth and glared at him." Please stop with the nonsense. It's still

early." She never thought that Keegan would suggest getting married since she was only joking.

Stella used to think that Cordelia was superstitious when she accompanied her to the temple to pray for blessings.

However, she realized that some things should not be joked about when it came to the people she cared for,

fearing that the worse would come true.

Keegan kissed her on the palm of her hand before taking it away. He then whispered, "I want to get married again."

Stella did not want to talk about it.

"We haven't gone through everything in a marriage the first time we got married," Keegan added.

"I've done my part in the marriage, Keegan. You're the one who didn't do yours," Stella glanced at him and said.

Keegan was taken aback. "That's why I need to make up for it," he said.

"You know how people in ancient times would use a rooster to replace a groom who can't show up for his wedding?

Yeah. You should just buy a hen and marry it." Stella sat up and replied.

Keegan was speechless. He sat up and froze. 'Why are my pants halfway to my knees?' He looked up at Stella, and

his confused state turned into a burning gaze. "Stella," he called out.

"What?" The woman turned her head and asked.

Keegan coughed, and his eyes wandered around as he said, "What happened last night was... consensual?"

Stella did not understand what he was asking.

Keegan seemed to be a little embarrassed. "I don't remember what happened. I didn't hurt you, did I?"

Stella was at a loss for words. "You thought we had sex last night?"

Hearing that, Keegan's ears turned red. He wanted to tell Stella off, but he was worried that she would get mad at

him. So, he held his tongue. "Can you be any more subtle?" He said after a long time.

"Okay," Stella replied. "You thought we did THAT last night?"

Keegan did not know what to say. 'She might as well just stick with what she said earlier,' he thought but ultimately

decided not to talk about it." Didn't we?" he asked.

"Of course not!" Stella immediately denied but Keegan did not fully believe her. "Why am I shirtless then?"

"You took it off yourself last night," Stella responded.

"Why would I take my shirt off for no good reason?’ Keegan doubted her claim. He thought that Stella was afraid

that he would take it to the next level, so she denied it on purpose.

Stella glanced at Keegan and said, "You even took off your pants to show me your..." She stretched out her finger

and pointed to his crotch area.

Keegan was flabbergasted. 'Nonsense! I would never do such a thing!" He embarrassingly said.

"Why would I lie? You can always ask Aldor if you don't believe me. You were literally running around the room

without any pants on."

Keegan paused and widened his eyes. "And, Aldor knows about it?!"

"I wouldn't be able to carry you to the bed alone, would I?" Stella blinked and said.

Keegan felt uncomfortable at that moment.

Stella bit her lip, trying not to laugh. She then tried to comfort him by saying, "Don't worry. Aldor is one of us. I’m

sure he wouldn't spread the news. Besides, what's wrong with him seeing you naked? Other males would only feel

insecure about themselves if they saw you."

Keegan glanced at her with a nasty look on his face. 'Is that supposed to fucking make me feel better?'

After teasing Keegan, Stella went to the bathroom happily to wash up. 'I love drunk Keegan. He's so always so dumb

and confused the next day. He never gets mad no matter how much I tease him, and he'd immediately try to coax

me if I pretended to be angry. Even though he's not good with his words, he sure makes me want to tease him

more. I must get him drunk again someday and pry out some deep and personal answers from him. He never talks

about his feelings unless he's drunk. Alcohol is fun.'

When Aldor came to pick them up, he noticed that Keegan's face was sullen, and his gaze was as gloomy as ever. It

looked like someone owed him a million bucks. Aldor did not know the reason behind Keegan's expression, so he

acted more cautiously than before.

Stella was scrolling through Facebook like she always did after getting into the car. She then saw the trending

headline of the day. [Yolanda Fenley in Critical Condition]
