Semua Bab Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted: Bab 1921 - Bab 1930

Vermont could not help but spurt the tea in his mouth all over. He coughed for some time as his face turned extremely red. However, he still teased Felicity, "If my name is Doggy, does that make you Bitchy? It doesn't sound too bad. We can call ourselves the Night Howlers, and our children can be called Cute Puppies. What do you think?"Felicity's face turned red from anger, "Only your children will be called puppies!""Yeah," Vermont smiled. "You'll be the one giving birth to them for me."Felicity punched him. When the two started fooling around, the atmosphere at the table became much happier. Keegan took advantage of the situation and pulled Stella closer, whispering, "Please don't be mad at me, okay?"Stella glanced at him, pursed her lips, and sat back down. Then, she "reluctantly" said, "I'm only staying because I don't want to ruin someone else's wedding."Keegan lowered his eyes, seeming to chuckle. He continued softly, "Thank you, Coach Hall."'Coach Hall...'Stella su

"Unfortunately, the retirement age has been changed now. When it's our turn to retire, we'll probably be sixty years old by then. I might not even receive my pension before I kick the bucket. I can only get a portion of what I contributed to the pension scheme all those years. It's pretty sad to think that after working so hard for so many years, I'll be gone before even I can enjoy them."So, after thinking about it, I've decided to get married after thirty-five and preferably have a child after forty. By the time my child is twenty and heading to college, I'll be officially retired and too old to be walking around, which means I won't have to babysit my grandchildren and still get to enjoy my pension. It's not that bad, right? Even if I don't live to sixty, the money in my pension account can be passed on to my child. They won't go to waste," Felicity added.Vermont's lip twitched, "Why do you care so much about your pension?""What? Without it, how am I supposed to get money when

Dahlia said gently, "The ceremony hasn't started yet, and we've been here for quite some time now. Mrs. Chapman is getting hungry, and the food will only be served later. It's not nice to carry a plate of food around in front of so many people. It might seem a little inappropriate."Aurora was unsure why Dahlia could not just ask a kitchen staff to do the same, but she did not question further as she was lost in her fantasy of a happy family. Instead, she said softly, "I specifically picked the desserts you like. Try them."Dahlia gently touched her face, "I have raised you right. You're always so thoughtful."Aurora heaved a sigh of relief inwardly, 'I'm glad that Mom finally thought this through.'Suddenly, the sound of footsteps echoed at the door. Dahlia paused, raised her head, and said, "Aurora, you should go back to the banquet hall. The ceremony will begin soon. I'm going to go speak to Mrs. Chapman for a while.""Okay, sure."When Aurora was about to leave, Dahlia stoppe

The manager was also shocked and quickly asked the on-duty staff about what had happened.However, none of them had a clue.Keegan told Olivia to prepare a room and had Lena take Stella inside to check on her.Dahlia was not surprised to see what happened at all.They had been hiding the news of Stella's pregnancy from the public. It was very unlikely that they would disclose it at a time like this.However, Dahlia figured that the baby in Stella's belly had no chance of making it, given how much blood she had lost.Dahlia felt very happy upon thinking about that.Then, she stepped forward and spoke in a gentle tone, "Keegan, it's Mrs. Chapman's daughter's big day and the ceremony will begin soon. Stella looks fine. Someone probably accidentally dropped an oil bottle, covering the stairs with oil. We should put this aside and investigate it later. Let's not delay the ceremony because of this."Felicity could not hold back her temper upon hearing that, "Are you hearing yourself?

Aurora froze in place.She looked at Dahlia with both shocked and fearful eyes and stuttered, "M–Mom, wh–what are you saying?"Dahlia put on a heartbroken expression on her face, "I know that you don't like Stella. You'd always tell me about it, but I thought you were just ranting. I never thought that you'd actually do something like this at Mrs. Chapman's daughter's wedding. I've spoiled you too much, and you have no sense of right or wrong! You'd better hope that nothing bad happened to Stella, or the entire Kane family will never forgive you for what you did!"With her still pale face, Aurora stared blankly at Dahlia. Every word she uttered felt like a cold knife stabbing her in her heart.Compared to the suspicious and disdainful look of the outsiders, Aurora was more troubled by Dahlia's attitude.Just moments ago, she had said that she would not target Stella anymore for the sake of her grandchild and wanted them to live happily as a family. But now, she became the first to
