Semua Bab Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted: Bab 1861 - Bab 1870

Darcie's expression eased, "Don't say things like that. Just talk to me before making any decisions next time. Don't take matters into your own hands. I know you have good intentions, but what you did might end up causing trouble for Jaylene."The man responded, "I understand."Darcie was about to say something more when the door suddenly pushed open, startling her. Jaylene rushed in and said, "Mom, Trevor is safe!"Darcie glowered at her, "Where are your manners? How could you barge in here without knocking?"Jaylene apologized but still felt very happy. She walked over to hold Darcie's hand and said excitedly, "Trevor wasn't in the private plane. He took a commercial flight back instead. I knew that such bad things would never happen to him."She paused momentarily before asking, "Mom, why are you not surprised?"Darcie said helplessly, "Your dad called and told me about it already."Why didn't you tell me? I've been crying for so long," Jaylene complained as she glanced at Da

Aldor couldn't help but burst into laughter this time.Keegan glared at him. Aldor, smiling, said, "This kind of reminds me of when you and Mrs. Kane first got divorced."This implied that everyone had turned against Keegan.Keegan kept quiet.Ultimately, Aldor still ended up taking Keegan to Cordelia's house. Of course, Cordelia had been joking earlier. How could she not welcome her grandson home for dinner?Baldwin was waiting at the door for Keegan. As the car came to a stop, he walked over, opened the door, and said, "Aldor, wait a moment. Mrs. Kane Sr. wants to speak with you."Surprised, Aldor stayed nonetheless.Chandler had been on a business trip a few days ago where a severe flu outbreak occurred. Unfortunately, he caught it and couldn't make it back home.Cyrene, still holding a grudge against Keegan for calling the police on Jackson, didn't make an effort to come over and pretend to please Cordelia, especially with her husband away.Fearing Cordelia, Dahlia chose t

Aldor spoke in a firm tone, laced with a hint of sarcasm, not too loud but clear enough.Aurora was taken aback. She had always seen Aldor as someone who rarely lost his cool.He had always been the epitome of politeness at work, even when Aurora, in a fit of anger, had once scornfully called him the Kane family's lapdog. Aldor never snapped back.She had little regard for people like Aldor, who, in her eyes, would bend over backward to please their superiors.Not long ago, when she was relegated to a lower-tier department, her confrontations with Aldor, both overt and covert, had been frequent. Keegan, their boss, had tasked Aldor with supervising her.Aldor always seemed to assign her more challenging tasks than others. Whenever she submitted a report, he would scrutinize her work far more than anyone else's. His criticisms were sharp. "How is this data analysis? Where's your month-to-month, year-to-year comparison?""The title is catchy, but the content? It's incomprehensible.

Aldor, feeling a mix of sadness and understanding for Sylvia, had his suspicions about why Cordelia insisted on their dinner attendance.He deduced that his earlier rejection of Cordelia's marriage proposal might have prompted her to arrange this impromptu "blind date" with Aurora. Cordelia had been vague, mentioning only that their presence would make the dinner more joyful.Sylvia, visibly worried about Aldor's job security, masked her discomfort with a forced smile. This deepened Aldor's sadness, and he couldn't help but cast a colder gaze toward Aurora.Aurora shivered slightly, sensing the tension. She realized that her past arrogance might have led Aldor to believe she was deliberately trying to embarrass Sylvia.But that wasn't her intention.Apologizing wasn't Aurora's strong suit. She nervously offered Sylvia some buffalo wings, her voice wavering, "Mrs. Hart, I... I think your gray hair might be genetic. My aunt, who's only in her forties, has lots of gray hair too, and

The room was filled with an air of tension.Thankfully, Cordelia eased the atmosphere, agreeing with Sylvia's views on work-life balance. "You're right. Work is important, but it's not everything. What's the point of earning so much if we can't enjoy life?"Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief. "Exactly."Then, Cordelia shifted the conversation toward Aurora. "Sylvia, what do you think about my granddaughter?"Sylvia, with genuine admiration, replied, "Ms. Kane is absolutely stunning, like someone out of a TV show. And her personality is just as impressive. She's very respectful and obedient toward you."Cordelia, with a hint of mischief, asked, "And what about the idea of her and Aldor together?"Sylvia was taken aback. "A-Aldor?"Cordelia clarified, "Yes, Aldor."The idea of her son and the wealthy heiress becoming a couple initially overwhelmed Sylvia. It took her a moment to process.Cordelia did not just invite her over for a chat, but to discuss a potential match between Aur
