Semua Bab Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted: Bab 1311 - Bab 1320

Vermont threw his bag on the bed and grumbled at Keegan."Seriously, what's wrong with you? Why would you even think that your brother-in-law was your rival in love back then? And you kept picking on him too! Look at the situation you put us in now. I can't believe that you are making me suffer the consequences of your actions with you!"Keegan was very annoyed that he could not stay with his girlfriend too. So, he glared at Vermont and retorted, "You're not paying anything for this trip. What consequences are you suffering exactly?"Vermont glowered back at him. "My large bedroom is gone!"Keegan responded, "So what if you could have that room? I'm sure Ms. Thompson will make your lie come true immediately once you perform some medical miracles. You're only being treated like a national treasure because you're 'impaired.' Do you really think that you're her real boyfriend?"Vermont kept quiet.'What an asshole! He's just venting his anger on me at this point!'Vermont sprawled

Keegan lightly traced his fingers across Stella's palm. She looked at him and saw his nonchalant face. Then, he gently pinched her fingers.Stella lowered her gaze and smiled.Trevor patted Jaylene lightly. "We've been here for a while. The journey was long, so I took everyone upstairs to rest before coming down."Jaylene looked at them and said politely, "Mr. Snyder, Ms. Thompson, thank you for attending my birthday celebration today."She noticeably paused when her gaze fell on Keegan. Then, she continued softly, "Keegan, thank you for coming."Keegan could clearly sense a piercing gaze from his girlfriend on him as soon as Jaylene thanked him.He could not figure out why Jaylene had to thank him separately. Then, he replied flatly, "Don't mention it. I didn't bring any expensive gift today anyway."He felt the need to clarify things before his girlfriend misunderstood anything. So, he purposely emphasized the word "expensive."Jaylene smiled. "It's the thought that counts."

That person got so angry that she laughed. "Oh, you're acting superior now just because you're in a play, huh? Is money all you care about?"Stella laughed too. "I can't believe one can be so entitled while asking for free stuff. I'm impressed. Ms. Dunphy, does your family have problems affording a ticket? Are you always trying to watch free plays wherever you go? Is your family... bankrupt?"Indeed, Ms. Dunphy's family was facing some financial issues, and Stella's words struck a nerve in Ms. Dunphy's heart, regardless of whether Stella said that intentionally or not. She got so angry that her face immediately turned red.Jaylene quickly chimed in, "Stella, Ms. Dunphy is just a straightforward person. She means no harm."Stella smiled. "That's why I was just joking as well. Why isn't anyone laughing?"Everyone kept quiet.Molly swept her gaze across Stella and said, "A joke is only funny when the person being joked about finds it funny. Otherwise, it's simply impolite."Stella

Stella did not know how much the cake cost, but she knew that custom-made cakes like that were expensive. During Keegan's birthday, she contemplated ordering a Luna-shaped cake for him. However, after inquiring about the price, she had second thoughts and ended up settling for a black swan design.Although it was still costly, Stella decided to splurge a little for the special occasion. After all, Keegan had worked tirelessly to earn his income, which he mostly spent on her. Now, looking at Jaylene's intricately designed cake, Stella suddenly felt she was frugal.Everyone in the room clapped after Jaylene made a wish and blew out the candles. Trevor wanted to capture the moment on his phone, but it suddenly rang. He asked his friend to record the scene and stepped away to take the call.Following that, one of Jaylene's friends initiated a game. "Alright, everyone, let's play a game. Jaylene will throw this handkerchief, and whoever catches it will have the honor of sharing the first

Jaylene was stunned after hearing from Vermont that Keegan was not single.Seeing that she pursed her lips, Vermont chose not to push the matter further. He did not know Jaylene well and was not particularly close to Trevor either. Therefore, he could not accurately judge Jaylene's character. However, he was aware that her feelings could cause complications for Keegan. Since Keegan found it hard to bring up the subject, Vermont decided to offer Jaylene a subtle hint.After the dance, Vermont left the floor to find Felicity.Felicity was sitting in a corner, eating some lobster. When Vermont walked over, she glanced at him and decided not to acknowledge him.Vermont leaned closer and said, "Hey, baby, why the long face?"Felicity shot him a glare. "Don't call me baby! It's gross!"Vermont chuckled and sat beside her. He put his arms over her shoulders and asked in a warm voice, "What's wrong? Why are you in such a grumpy mood?""How does it feel to have your hands all over the wo
