Semua Bab Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted: Bab 1731 - Bab 1740

Felicity and Stella were left speechless by Garrett's assumption.Vermont felt embarrassed. "Enough with the jokes. She's just a friend."Drawing Felicity closer, he clarified, "And this is my girlfriend. The one here for a check-up is her best friend."Felicity shoved him away, saying, "I'm not your girlfriend! Don't talk nonsense!"Garrett felt surprised that Vermont had a girlfriend. But as a doctor, he focused on the main thing. "Everything's ready. Dr. Lyle will guide you today."Stella nodded thankfully and left the room with the doctor. Worried about Stella, Felicity went along.After they left, Garrett turned to Vermont and asked, "When did you get a girlfriend? Why didn't Mom and Dad tell me? They even wanted me to introduce you to my colleague some time ago."Vermont leaned against the windowsill, saying casually, "If I told them, they'd dig deep into her family's history. It'd seem like a political background check."Garrett chuckled. "You're their top kid. They'd wa

Keegan's leg wasn't seriously injured; it was just weakened from prolonged immobility. His recovery had been swift over the past few days with proper nutrition and rehabilitation training.Although his body had improved significantly, Jaylene noticed that Keegan had become less talkative. When she initiated conversations, he would respond with minimal enthusiasm, appearing disinterested.This change in demeanor left Jaylene somewhat uneasy. Seeking to lighten the mood, she decided to bring up Stella."Stella hasn't been home these past few days, and it feels quite empty. Despite her hating me for saving you, I actually like having a sister at home."Keegan did not react when he heard Stella's name.Jaylene continued, "Dad mentioned that she went out with her friend to unwind. She has quite a number of friends. Last time, she went out with Marshall. This time, I'm not sure."Keegan seemed unfazed and said, "Jaylene, Grandma suggested I formally express my gratitude, considering my

Startled, Coco quickly jumped off her chair and dashed to the door. She stuck her head out to see what was going on.There was no one in the hallway other than the cleaning lady polishing the handrail on the stairs.Spotting some scattered dirt near the entrance where a flowerpot was, Coco held the phone and called for Stella. After receiving no response, she lowered her head and realized the call had been unexpectedly disconnected.Coco was thinking of redialing the number when she heard Keegan's voice asking, "Did I leave my phone in your room?"In response, Coco swiftly withdrew her finger, contemplating a condition before returning the phone to him. "Give me Aunt Stella's number, and I'll return your phone."Keegan shot her a glance. "I'll give it to you, but she won't answer your call.""Aunt Stella isn't as petty as you," Coco mumbled. "I don't care if she doesn't answer. Just give me the number."Keegan observed her briefly before stating, "If you don't give me the phone,

Marshall paused, a moment of youthful charm flickering in his eyes.Feeling guilty for the lie she concocted, Stella dared not meet his eyes. "Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be going in now.""Wait," Marshall called after her.Stella stopped and turned to look at him.Marshall stepped out of the car, opened the back door, and pulled out a bouquet of flowers. "I passed by a flower shop on the way here and thought of bringing you some flowers. It's been a while since you stayed here, and I thought your room could use a touch of freshness."The gesture left Stella stunned.Marshall certainly knew how to make a move.If this had taken place before she got to know Keegan, Stella would have probably fallen for someone as outstanding as Marshall. It wasn't about the romantic aspect of the flowers, but Marshall's attentiveness that touched her heart."Don't you like it?" Marshall asked softly as Stella remained silent.Stella accepted the flowers and smiled. "No, I love it. Thank

Keegan looked puzzled, glancing at Jaylene for an explanation.She clarified, "Dad, Keegan told me he was coming. It was my bad for not keeping you in the loop. I wanted to surprise you."Wenham did not understand her thought process. 'It sure is a surprise.''Stella is coming home for lunch. She wouldn't be pleased if she found these two together. Why does Jaylene have a crush on Keegan of all people? This isn't good, especially considering he's dealing with amnesia and doesn't even recognize Stella.'The more Wenham thought about it, the less he liked Keegan.While Jaylene was preparing some fruit in the kitchen, Wenham turned to Keegan and asked, "Do you really not remember Stella?"Keegan lowered his gaze and replied, "Mhm.""What's Jaylene to you then?""She saved my life." Keegan explained."That's all?" Wenham doubted his response, his sharp gaze piercing through Keegan. "You were missing for a month, and you showed up with Jaylene after that. What happened between you
