Semua Bab Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted: Bab 2281 - Bab 2290

Stella was puzzled.Felicity's voice came through Keegan's phone, "Stella! You've become the other woman! And with your cousin at that!"Keegan was confused, and Stella was even more confused. What was this about exes and current partners? And why did the voice sound so familiar?"Did you... did you call the wrong number?" Stella asked quietly.There was a moment of silence on the other end, followed by a hesitant voice, "Ste… Stella?"Stella was taken aback. Did she know her?"It's me. May I ask who this is?"The person on the other end didn't respond immediately, but Stella could hear her breathing getting erratic.Keegan took the phone back from Stella and put it on speaker. "Do you need something?"Joe Esper gritted his teeth. "Who just answered the phone?"Keegan said, "My wife.""Impossible!" Joe ground his teeth. "You obsessed fan! Did you find a voice double to mess with me on purpose?"Keegan replied calmly, "I'm not that childish, and no one can replace her."Joe

Stella was speechless."Are the standards for hiring entertainment reporters this low now? Can even the blind get the job?"Joe was speechless.Was his idol really this sarcastic in private?Felicity, who had been listening on the phone for a while, finally couldn't help but speak up, "Aren't those pictures of you and Leighton?"Stella replied, exasperated, "That's me and my brother.""But these photos really do look like Leighton, and isn't your brother driving Leighton's car?"Stella hadn't noticed what car Trevor was driving. If it was indeed Leighton's car. It was no wonder the paparazzi got it wrong.She reinstalled Facebook and checked the trending topics, feeling numb.The top entertainment headlines were all about Leighton's "affair."Things like #NewStarInvolvedInLeightonHallLoveLife#, #LeightonHallLoveLifeInCrisisOnAndOffScreenLoveTriangle#, #LeightonIsEatingWell#, #LoveAndIndifferenceAreSoObvious#...All sorts of absurd tags.Stella opened her Facebook, seeing 99

Estelle paused before speaking, then finally said, "There's been some unpleasantness regarding the contract termination, and the company doesn't want Leighton to leave without consequences."It was evident that Estelle wasn't being entirely truthful with her. Estelle was smart and cautious. The chances of him confiding in Stella were slim as Leighton was still drunk.Stella pondered for a moment before saying, "I'll post a clarification on Facebook later. You can reach out to Nicole and have her explain the messy news online too. I'll handle the lawyer coordination from my end. The sooner we address this, the easier it will be to clear things up."The "affair" scandal surrounding Leighton was fabricated. However, what was true was dragging Leighton into the mud with allegations of "sexual harassment."Stella felt it wasn't solely the work of Leighton's agency.If she were Leighton's boss, a top-tier talent she had nurtured, she believed that even if he terminated his contract, his

When Nicole's request to join the stream came through, "Little Sweet Potato" hesitated for a moment, glancing instinctively to the side before quickly averting her gaze.Most people didn't pick up on this detail, but Stella did.It appeared that "Little Sweet Potato" wasn't alone in the livestream; someone seemed to be coaching her from the sidelines.Onlookers and fans eager to uncover the truth flooded the chat with messages."What a coward! Who hides behind their girlfriend when things get tough? I regret ever being his fan!""A person who can't handle a little heat—Leighton Hall is trash. What does Nicole see in him? Accept the request, let's hear her side of the story.""Sis, bring out the evidence and expose him! This guy doesn't deserve to be called an idol!""As long as we don't see that official statement in black and white, I'll always stand by him!""Being a fan has completely eroded any sense of morality."-Encouraged by the crowd, @Little Sweet Potato finally co

Leighton's brief feeling of gratitude disappeared in an instant.After finishing the police report and stepping outside, they were greeted by a throng of reporters and fans. The police presence at the station helped keep things orderly, maintaining a relatively stable situation.As Leighton guided Nicole to the car, someone suddenly called out his name, "Leighton!"Leighton glanced up.An egg-sized stone came hurtling toward him, catching him off guard. But before he could react, a figure leapt in front of him, shielding him from the blow—it was Nicole.The stone struck the back of her head, causing her to wince in pain as she stumbled forward. Instinctively, Leighton reached out to steady her.Nicole furrowed her brow, reaching up to touch the spot where she'd been hit. Her hand came away warm and wet, stained with blood.Leighton's hand trembled as he held hers, his face drained of color, looking ghastly.The assailant shouted angrily, "You mongrel! We worked hard to make you
