Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 2237

Chapter 2237

Keegan settled into silence, gently reaching out to touch his face, her palm moist with tears.

That evening, after the successful conclusion of the press conference, they huddled together, crying for a long while. Aurora Kane crouched outside the master bedroom, ultimately lacking the courage to knock on the door.

Her phone buzzed incessantly, Dahlia's messages flooding in one after the other, 'Aurora, have you spoken to your brother?"

"I was deceived by your uncle. Family ties run deep. Of course, I can tell the difference. I can't bear to see your grandfather's legacy being tarnished like this.

"I never intended to cut ties with Keegan. He's my son. How could I abandon him? Stella tricked me into writing that severance letter. I knew it held no legal weight when I signed it. Who knew she'd pull a stunt like this!

"Aurora, ignore the online chatter. Keegan is my flesh and blood. How could I not care for him? It's just that he's been under your grandmother's influence for too long. Your grandmother doesn't approve of me, so I always feel like Keegan doesn't either. Sometimes, distance is inevitable. But he's my son, my heart. He loves me, and I love him more."

Aurora pursed her lips, rising from the ground. As she descended the stairs, she dialed Dahlia's number.

Dahlia must have been waiting by the phone, promptly answering when it rang.

"Aurora, my dear, how did it go? Have you told your brother everything as I instructed?"

Suddenly, Aurora asked, "Mom, do you know what day next Wednesday is?"

Dahlia hesitated, "Why this sudden question? My memory isn't what it used to be. Just remind me."

Aurora stated, "Next Wednesday is Keegan's birthday, Mom. You remember your close friends' preferences, but do you remember Keegan's?"

Dahlia was speechless for a moment, then erupted, "Are you blaming me too? Haven't I been good to Keegan? Haven't I been good to you? What gives you the right to say such things to me!"

A pang struck Aurora's heart. "I have no right, because I'm the one who benefits. Similarly, you have no right to seek forgiveness from Keegan. If he forgives you, then the harm you've caused him is what he deserves.

Keegan is a good person, he deserves better. If you couldn't love him before, then don't disrupt his path in the future."

Dahlia paled, angrily retorting, "Aurora! You ungrateful child. I'd rather raise a dog than you!"

Aurora interjected softly, "I'll take care of you in your old age, but don't bother Keegan anymore."

With that, she hung up, ignoring Dahlia's hysteria on the other end.

Understanding someone else's feelings completely was impossible. Hearing about Keegan's past from others made her heart ache, but he had lived through it firsthand.

What right did she have to advise Keegan to forgive their mother? She was complicit in it all.

It was always Keegan who protected her. Now, all she could do was this small gesture.

Her phone buzzed again. Thinking it was Dahlia, she was about to silence it when she saw a message from Aldor Hart.

"Miss, are you asleep?"

Aurora replied, "Yes."

Aldor called, and as Aurora answered, amidst the sound of wind, Aldor's gentle laughter came, "Let's meet up, I want to see you."

Aurora was taken aback, her heart racing.
