Chapter 1082
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Stella woke up immediately after hearing Trevorâs voice and was no longer sleepy. She quickly sat up and signaled Keegan not to say anything inappropriate to her boss. She did not want to pay for breaching the contract because of her relationship with Keegan.
Keegan glanced at her and calmly said into the phone, âSheâs sleeping.â
Stella was speechless at his response.
Trevorâs face darkened at that, and his tone changed, âShe slept with you?â
Stella quickly sat up and covered Keeganâs mouth. The expression on her face looked like she was trying to tell him, âDonât you dare.â
Keegan looked at her naked chest and suddenly reached out to give her a squeeze. Stella immediately withdrew her hand to shield herself, her face full of disbelief. âHe was rather conservative before the divorce. What happened on the bed stayed in bed. He never did anything indecent after sex. It was like he graduated first class from the Academy of Male Virtues. But what kind of immodest behavior is this?
Did he lose all his male virtues after getting the vasectomy?â
Satisfied with Stellaâs reaction, Keegan pinched her stunned face and said to the person on the other end of the phone, âWe had dinner with Leighton last night. She got drunk, so I brought her to a hotel.â
âAnd you stayed?â Trevor asked.
Keegan pursed his lips and said, âWas I supposed to leave her here alone when sheâs unconscious?
You think thatâs safe?â
Trevor choked when he heard that. âNo, it isnât safe. But itâs not any safer with you there!â He thought.
From Trevorâs standpoint, Keegan was like his neighborâs dog, who kept looking at his parrot through the yard fence, wanting to take his pet away. No matter how hard Trevor tried to keep them apart, his bird still flew next door to play with the dog when he was not home. He felt bad being unable to keep an eye on the parrot or his sister.
âDo I need to remind you that the two of you are divorced, Keegan? Can you behave yourself? Why didnât you just send her home if it wasnât safe? Her career is just starting to take off, and youâre messing around with her. Are you afraid that sheâd have a better life without you?â
Stella frowned, thinking Trevorâs words were slightly over the line. âHe never talks like this in front of me. Why is he so harsh toward Keegan?â Afraid that Keegan would get mad and argue with Trevor, Stella quickly said, âTrevor, I was the one who asked Kee- Mr. Kane to bring me to a hotel. Donât worry.
I was wearing a mask, so no one saw me. Please donât blame him.â
Trevor stayed quiet. âDamn it. Did Keegan say that earlier just to provoke me? Why does it seem like Iâm the bad guy now?â
Keegan, who was sitting on the side, teasingly said, âTrevor was just concerned. Just let him say what he wants. This isnât the first time he said something like that to me. Iâm used to it.â
Trevor wanted to grab the insole of his shoe and gag Keegan with it at that moment. âGod! This guy always says the wrong things at the wrong time!â Though Trevor was furious, he could not bring himself to be mad at his baby sister. He swallowed his anger and decided to ignore Keegan.
âGrandpa and Grandma arrived at Rivera yesterday. They initially planned to meet you on the weekend, but they couldnât wait to see you. So they called me to ask if we could bring the meeting forward to this afternoon. Iâve asked the crew about your schedule, and you donât have anything going on at that time. What do you say?â âHow am I supposed to reject you when youâve already checked my schedule?â Stella said to herself. âBut whatever. Itâs going to happen sooner or later since Iâve agreed to the meeting.â
