Chapter 1721
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Keegan looked coldly at her and sneered, âWhy would your blows improve my injuries? Who do you think you are? A goddess?â â âYeah,â Stella replied, poker-faced. âYou used to say that Iâm a goddess, so I guess that makes my blows extra special.â
Keegan was stunned, âThatâs absurd! Iâd never say something so cheesy!â
âTsk. This is nothing compared to the cheesy things you used to say to me. For example, youâve told me you canât live without me. You also said Iâm the only one you love and want us to be together forever. Youâre especially cheesy duringâ¦â
âDuring what?â
Stella wanted to lean in and whisper in his ear, but Keegan stopped her, âDonât come closer. You can say it right there.â i âBut itâs inappropriate to say out loud.â
Keegan unscrewed his water bottle and said, âJust say it!â
Stella smirked and said, âYouâre especially cheesy during⦠sex. You love calling me baby, saying that Iâm soft and sweet. You said youâre willing to do anything for me.â
âPfft- Cough, cough-â Upon sipping water, Keegan involuntarily sprayed out half of it and choked on the remaining portion. His face and neck turned red.
Stella walked over, worriedly patting his back. âI told you I couldnât say it out loud. I know you donât remember me. You probably still think youâre a virgin. This topic is too much for you,â she said, somewhat aggrieved.
Keeganâs ears reddened as he coughed. He glared at Stella, embarrassed and annoyed. âYouâre soâ¦
vulgar!â
Stella rolled her eyes, thinking Keeganâs amnesia had turned him into an innocent college boy. The banter between them used to be much more efficient, i âYeah, yeah,â Stella accepted the comment.
âStop coughing, or your wound might split open.â
Keegan was not in a good mood. He glared at her and said,â Youâre the one to blame if that happens!â
âI am. I am.â Stella was extremely patient. She felt that arguing with Keegan, even if he did not recognize her, was a more favorable outcome than him never coming back.
âAre you okay? Tell me if it hurts.â Keegan looked at her with a mixture of unease and annoyance. His lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but Jaylene showed up, âKeegan, Iâm ready.â
Keegan pushed away Stellaâs hand coldly, saying, âDonât bother.â
As Jaylene approached, she noticed the unusual atmosphere between the two.
She asked softly, âWhat happened, Keegan?â
âNothing,â Keegan replied with a stiff expression.
Stellaâs face did not look good either. It seemed like something unpleasant had happened between them.
Seeing this, Jaylene did not ask further. She turned around, smiled, and said, âIâll take Juno for a ride.â
Keegan nodded, âBe careful.â
Stella lowered her eyes. âEither he forgot how challenging Juno could be, or he is overly confident of Jayleneâs skills,â she thought. âIt was surprising to see Juno let her touch him, though.â 2 Jaylene mounted Juno, and it trotted into the racetrack. Its new horseshoes made a loud and rhythmic clinking sound.
Juno moved at a leisurely pace. It was more of a stroll than a run. Jaylene did not experience the thrill of riding a horse. She noticed Keegan seemed to be talking to Stella again and started to feel worried.
She fiercely whipped Juno, hoping to speed up and divert Keeganâs attention to her. i Juno winced in pain and, indeed, began to accelerate. Seeing Juno running faster, Keegan turned his head to look.
