Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted - Chapter 2229
Chapter 2229
Why did Marshall bother dragging Keegan upstairs when he was already drunk?
Couldn’t he just place Keegan downstairs?
Even if it was for Keegan’s comfort, why did Marshall wait downstairs for her?
There were only two elevators going up; could she really have missed them?
Keegan always had a disdain for the Jewell family. He wouldn’t give Sophia a chance to get close to him while sober. And Sophia
wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed. If she had the capability, she would have succeeded long ago.
So when Marshall drank water, it wasn’t because of a headache, but to stall for time, making sure she could catch them in the
act.
The more Stella thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. What was Marshall feeling when he came to aid the person
responsible for his first love’s death?
“Stella?”
Seeing her silence, her face still somewhat pale, Marshall gently called her.
Stella’s fingers trembled slightly, then she clenched them, steadying her emotions. She reached out and took it, “Thank you.”
She seemed okay, but her complexion wasn’t great at the moment, with a layer of cold sweat on her forehead, possibly from
being frightened.
Marshall had a lot on his mind, but when he spoke, it came out as a simple greeting, “How have you been lately?”
Stella nodded. “Pretty good.”
She paused and added, “A while ago, someone contacted me from your phone, saying you were drunk. | wasn’t feeling well at
the time, so | didn’t go. Did you return after?”
She brought up the topic almost as if she feared he would question her absence. This distance between them left a bitter taste in
his mouth.
He smiled. “Yes, | did. Kayla was kind enough to escort me back.”
Stella nodded. “That’s good.”
She fiddled with her cup, choosing her words carefully, “Mr. Moore, when we parted that day, | said some things that were a bit
harsh. You’ve helped me a lot, and | was too suspicious of you. I’m sorry.”
Marshall shook his head. “It’s because | didn’t clarify things before sharing ambiguous information with you. It’s natural for you to
blame me.”
Stella lowered her eyes. “You and
Keegan have been friends since
childhood. | should trust that you
have his best interests at heart, just
as he has yours. oe

always mentioned your childhood
together. That model cruise ship he
placed on the bookshelf, he said it
was handmade by you and given to
him. The housekeeper accidentally
broke the sails while cleaning before,
and he was really upset. | even felt a
pang of jealousy at the time, thinking
it was a gift from his ex-girlfriend, but
it turned out to be from you.” The

Stella chuckled, “He didn’t cherish anything | gave him as much.”
Marshall’s expression was

“Yeah, he’s always been sentimental,” Stella said softly, “Do you know why he created Luna?”
Marshall paused for a moment and remained silent.novelbin
Stella continued, “He said he hurt his
back playing basketball in school. He
was bedridden the whole time. Every
day, he felt like a piece of dead meat

félt he-had no dignity, was very
ashamed, and had a friend who
encouraged him, saying that in the
future, he should create a robot butler

jokes into reality, but | don’t know if
