Semua Bab Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted: Bab 1831 - Bab 1840

Having been in the circle for so many years, Vermont thought he had seen it all. When the woman embraced him, he sensed trouble brewing.Several accusations were thrown at him without him being able to defend himself.His expression turned icy. Just as Vermont was about to address the situation, he noticed Felicity in the crowd, looking at the scene. He felt a tight knot in his chest.'Oh dear. Is she going to overthink this?'Vermont was in a panic. He almost pushed through the people to provide an explanation when Felicity suddenly sank to the ground and burst into tears."Ah!" She clutched her stomach, appearing distressed. "Vermont, my belly hurts. Is something wrong with the baby?"Her cry drew everyone's attention.The woman who had hugged Vermont turned pale and confronted Felicity, "Who are you? What's your relationship with Vermont?"Vermont's eyelid twitched, and he forcefully pushed Elsa away. He approached Felicity, crouched down, and helped her up.Before he could

Vermont was unconcerned. "Keegan is a grown man, not a fool. I'm sure Jaylene won't be able to snatch him away.""Did you not see what happened at the banquet? She kept filling Keegan's glass. It's clear she has ill intentions," Felicity persisted.Vermont giggled, "What? Are you worried she'll get him drunk and take advantage of him?"Felicity glared at him and said, "Well, it's not entirely impossible, is it? What if Keegan gets drunk, loses his judgment, and does something inexplicable? Stella will never forgive him.."Vermont laughed heartily. He held Felicity's hand and said, "Miss bandit, you're inexperienced in love. You don't understand men well."Felicity did not understand what he meant."Using alcohol as an excuse for inappropriate behavior is just a lame attempt by men with ulterior motives. If a man wants to misbehave, even a sip of vinegar can make him drunk. If he's not interested, no amount of alcohol will work. Judging from Keegan's character, he wouldn't stoop t

Jaylene dismissed Aurora's claims, finding them more reflective of Dahlia's opinions of Stella.She smiled and commented, "You're reading too much into it. Stella genuinely cares about Keegan's well-being. Growing up in the Jewell family, surrounded by individuals like Albert, whose character is questionable, may have shaped her demeanor. And Keegan, well, he's quite straightforward. Disagreements are bound to happen."Aurora scoffed at the mention of the Jewell family. "She certainly learned a lot from Albert's never-ending greed."Without delving deeper into the conversation, Jaylene asked, "Aurora, I heard you're living in Keegan's house now. Is that true?"Aurora nodded. "If Stella can help my brother regain his memory, then so can I. If she's living there, I'll be there too. I need to keep a close watch on her and prevent any chance of her trying to reignite old feelings with my brother."Jaylene chuckled, "You're such a child."Aurora took her hand and said, "Jaylene, while

The figure on the couch remained unresponsive. Stella decided to undo the remaining buttons without hesitation.Keegan's chest was red; it seemed he was genuinely under the influence of alcohol."Keegan?" Stella called his name again, "Do you remember what I told you the day you picked me up?"As she spoke, the knife had slid down to his belt. Keegan's body stiffened momentarily.The chilly blade gently tapped his lower abdomen while Stella wiped the thin sweat from his forehead.She exhaled and said, "With your excellent memory, you shouldn't have forgotten, right?"Keegan tensed all over, and a particular phrase crossed his mind, "Regardless of whether you can recover your memory in the future if you have any involvement with Jaylene, I'll make sure you can never have children."Feeling the blade sliding downward, he tensed even more."Are you really drunk?" Stella frowned, reaching out to touch his face. "How much did you drink?"She set the knife aside and sat next to Keeg

Keegan was stunned to hear that Stella was drinking vinegar.Stella slid a cup toward him and said, "Try it. The vinegar arrived last night. Go on and see if it has the right kick."Keegan waved it off. "You enjoy."Stella smirked and brought it to her lips, taking a sip.Since her pregnancy, her palate had evolved, steering away from the spiciness she once favored to a penchant for sweet and sour flavors. However, her doctor recommended she cut back on sweet treats to ensure a healthy weight for the baby.Hence, Cordelia had a friend make some homemade fruit vinegar that carried a subtle sweetness and a strong fruity fragrance. Stella tried it for the first time today, and it suits her tastebuds perfectly.As Keegan finished putting on his shoes, Stella called out to him once more, "My brother is returning tomorrow."Keegan halted, asking, "What time is he arriving?""He mentioned catching a flight tonight and reaching tomorrow morning. He said he'd get in touch with me before
