Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 10

Stella clenched her fists and suddenly lost the courage to push the door open. She turned around and went to the washroom.

‘Whoever he marries is the same. I wasn’t chosen because I was special, but because anyone is fine for him since they’re not her,’ she thought.

Stella stood outside for over ten minutes and only returned after she had composed herself.

She opened the door and saw that all the dishes had arrived. Keegan lifted his head and glanced at her. However, he did not speak.

Dahlia beckoned her to sit down. “What took you so long?”

Stella answered quietly, “Sorry, my stomach wasn’t feeling so good.”

Dahlia paused. When she saw Stella’s genuinely pale face and the slightly faded lip color on her lips, she asked, “Why wouldn’t your stomach feel good? Have you gotten it checked at the hospital?”

“No. It’s nothing. It’s probably something inveterate.”

Dahlia responded, “You should still get it checked at the hospital after this. What if you’re pregnant and you confuse it with something else, then something happens?”

‘Earlier on, I was surprised at how Dahlia was worried about my health. Turns out, she was just worried that I wasn’t aware of my pregnancy and wouldn’t be able to keep the Kane family’s child,’ Stella thought.

Stella smiled slightly. “Alright.”

Dahlia stopped talking to her. The family of three would occasionally speak to each other, making Stella feel as if she was an outsider who had invaded their family luncheon.

Suddenly, there was a piece of pork ribs on her plate. Stella turned to Keegan. However, he did not look at her and merely indifferently said, “Take whatever you want yourself.”

‘No, I’m not an outsider. I’m just a temporary actor at this family luncheon. Keegan and I are just exchanging favors,’ thought Stella.

At this thought, she promptly felt rebellious.
