Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 2236

Chapter 2236

Stella didn't see Wenham's reply until she got home, and it brought a mix of laughter and tears.

With that response, Stella felt relieved. It meant her dad, though upset, was open to reconciliation.

Regarding the customization, she figured it was all about pleasing the father-in-law; Keegan would make it happen.

After replying to Wenham, she turned to Keegan lying on the bed.

With Aldor and the others' help, his suit was off. His tie hung loosely around his chest, and the top two buttons of his shirt were undone, revealing a flush.

His glasses still perched on his nose, his sharp features softened.

Stella leaned over and whispered, "Keegan, honey..."

Keegan, a bit annoyed, buried his head deeper into the pillow. His Adam's apple protruded, inadvertently enticing.

Stella reached for his glasses, gently stroking his forehead. "Honey, get up, shower, then sleep. I can't move you."

Keegan groggily opened his eyes, gazing at the blurry figure. Suddenly, he hugged her, planting a kiss on her cheek. "Stella..." He murmured her name, and Stella, unbuttoning his shirt, replied, "I'm here."

After calling her name, Keegan began to laugh, shedding his seriousness. He seemed more childish, saying softly, "Stella, I did it, I did it, Stella..."

Ten years...

Keegan had provided a satisfactory answer to his father, his followers, and every customer of the Vinci Rivera Group.

The hardships he faced were known only to him. Keegan never complained, not even to her.

She used to not understand his seemingly mechanical life, always busy. She thought his goal was to fight for the inheritance of the Vinci Rivera Group, underestimating his ideals.

In her previous marriage, she said he didn't understand her, but in fact, she didn't understand him. In the year since their divorce her experiences made her gradually understand his hardships.

Because he bore not only his own and his team's future but also his father's unfinished mission and his vision for the entire industry.

Her husband was ambitious...

Stella thought to herself as she embraced him, "Yes, you did it."

"Am I your pride?"

Keegan asked softly.

"Of course."

But Keegan seemed not to hear, pulling her close like a child, repeatedly asking, "Am I your pride?" No matter her answer, he kept asking.

His eyes became moist. Stella realized he wasn't talking to her; he was asking his father.

He no longer needed Dahlia's approval; he no longer hoped for the maternal love he never received. But his father, the one who left the world too early, was forever a regret in his heart.

Stella hugged him tightly, stroking his hair, and said hoarsely, "You always have been.'
