Chapter 251
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
âMr. Moore was taking photos on the rooftop, and I mistakenly thought he was secretly taking photos of me. I snatched his phone away, and this is the first meeting you speak of! Youâre making accusations at me, but have you ever respected our marriage yourself?â
Stellaâs pent-up anger had almost dissipated, but Keeganâs words once again stirred up the frustration she had experienced today.
âOther husbands respect and love their wives, but how about you? Maya went to your company and caused trouble. Yet, you were worried that youâd take things too far, causing you to lose your support and damage your reputation. And so, you asked me to come and made me the scapegoat. You let me become the bad person and take the blame while you get the good reputation of someone who treasures his old employees. How cunning of you.â
Keeganâs expression darkened, âIn your heart, Iâm a villain who shirks my responsibility to a woman?â
Stella was furious, so she said without thinking, âYouâre not only a villain, youâre practically not a man! You donât want a child, yet youâre not telling your family. You passed the buck of being infertile to me, so I have to drink that disgusting decoction daily. Iâm even being treated as a sinner for taking contraceptives. Which part of you resembles a man or a husband?!â
Keeganâs expression darkened even more. He looked so furious that Aldor did not even dare to breathe too loudly.
âMrs. Kane mustâve gone mad! Howâd she dare to speak to Mr. Kane this way?!â he thought.
He hurriedly defended Keegan, âMrs. Kane, what happened today was my fault. I took the liberty and called you, so Mr. Kane was uninformed.â
Stella sneered, âYou donât even dare to admit it now.â
Aldor was speechless.
âMrs. Kane, Iâm telling the truth. Mr. Kane doesnât knowâ¦â
Keegan cut him off, âStella, youâve gone through over ten years of education, yet getting have pregnant is the only thing you have in mind? Do you think you can keep everything you right now once you have a child? If this is your intention, let me tell you. I will never want to have a child with you for the rest of my life!â
Stella seethed with anger.
âWhat a fucking load of bullshit! I was saying he passed the buck of being infertile to me. Now, heâs secretly changed the narrative to me wanting a child because I have ill intentions. Heâs easily pushing my buttons,â she thought.
Stella sneered, âLet me also tell you something clearly. Iâd rather give birth to a litter of pups for a dog rather than have a baby with you!â
Keegan went purple in the face, âYouâre simply unbearably vulgar!â
âEye boogers blind you; you canât tell the good from bad!â Stella glared at him. Then, she turned and said to Aldor, âStop the car! I want to get out!â
âMrs. Kane, please calm down. Mr. Kane didnât know about it. Besides, the pregnancy matter-
âStop the car! Let her scram!â
Keegan cut Aldor off. He rarely used coarse language like âscramâ unless he was utterly enraged.
Stella added fuel to the fire, âDid you hear him? He asked me to scram. I need to be observant. Otherwise, how will I earn that 10 billion from Mr. Kane?â
Keeganâs gaze looked like he wanted to rip her to shreds. Aldor kept quiet and quickly pulled over. Stella got out of the car. Then, she disappeared into the crowd without turning back. Since Keeganâs anger remained unappeased, Aldor felt unusually awkward.
He apologized quietly, âMr. Kane, this is my fault. I took the liberty to contact Mrs. Kane. I was worried she wouldnât come, so I didnât tell her what happened over the phone.â
âStella was not remotely prepared when she came to relieve the situation; thatâs why sheâs so angry,â thought Keegan.
He replied icily, âDid you think we could walk away from company matters by relying on a woman to protect the company? So what if she did jump? If I had backed down today, in the future, every person who gets dismissed with follow suit. If all of them came to the company and did the same thing, am I supposed to back down every time? Since I dared to do so, Iâm not afraid of being criticized by others! Youâve worked for me for many years, yet you still donât understand this?â
Aldor paled, âMy apologies.â
Keegan closed his eyes tiredly and stopped talking.
Felicity had followed the film crew to Hampford, so Stella had nowhere to go. So she went around and eventually went to Rotona Pinnacle Hospital.
For the past few days, Stella had been frequenting the hospital. So naturally, this led the nurse to wonder and ask if she had gotten into a fight with her husband.
Stella gave the nurse a vague answer. She said that she did not have much to do for the few days and wanted to spend more time with her mother.
Then, the nurse did not ask any more questions.
It was boring at the hospital. Stella helped the nurse clean Raineeâs body and occasionally massaged it. Other times, she just sat around.
âTo be honest, sometimes when I see Rainee lying there half-dead, Iâve considered following the doctorâs advice and pulling the plug. Itâll let her pass on peacefully. Itâs been years, and her organs are severely damaged. Even if she were conscious, she wouldnât live long and only suffer. However, I donât have the heart to do it. When Raineeâs still around, whenever Iâm sad, I can still find solace as I sit by her bed. If sheâs gone, Iâll truly be alone in this world Rainee had spent her entire lifetime on Albert. Even though they quarreled constantly, she knew that she loved her husband.
Rainee grew up in a well-off family. If she had listened to grandpa back then and married someone with similar family background, she probably wouldâve lived a much easier life. However, she chose Albert She endured grandpaâs discontent and started a business from scratch with Albert Even though she suffered a lot, Albert still did not love her the way he loved himself. Rainee probably never imagined that the man she deeply loved would give up on her treatment the moment she got into an accident. Thankfully, she wasnât conscious; if she were conscious, she wouldâve been so furious with Albertâs heartlessness,â thought Stella. While Stella was deep in thought, Lena suddenly called her. She was a little shocked but accepted the call.
