Semua Bab Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted: Bab 2301 - Bab 2310

Leighton fell silent."Can’t think of anyone?" Stella asked."It’s not that," Leighton coughed. "There are too many."Stella was rendered speechless.Previously, Leighton had clashed with a somewhat influential host on a variety show. Although the host was being offensive and Leighton’s retort was praised by netizens, he was still new to the industry. The host, with his connections, caused Leighton to lose some job opportunities and subjected him to plenty of difficulties.Leighton's rebellious and righteous nature made him intolerant of some people’s vile behavior, leading to many conflicts in the entertainment industry over the years. It wasn’t impossible that someone might want to take this opportunity to drag him down.The entertainment industry was already a place with too many people competing for too few resources. The top artists monopolize over ninety percent of the resources. Taking him down could free up opportunities to benefit dozens of other artists.After listenin

Leighton suddenly remembered what the woman who caused a scene at the previous press conference had said. That woman claimed Nicole was “seducing her own brother.”Was she talking about this guy?Nicole seemed to read his mind and laughed. "I don’t like him, and I never will. He’s not good enough for me."Leighton’s eyelid twitched. He muttered, “Thick-skinned.”He was used to hearing people say they weren’t good enough for someone else. This was the first time he’d heard someone boldly declare that the other person wasn’t good enough for them. How could Estelle call him narcissistic? This crazy girl was way more self-absorbed than he was!Before long, they arrived at Nicole’s place, only to find a crowd already gathered, waiting to corner her.Estelle didn’t even stop the car, simply detouring around the crowd.Leighton frowned. “How did your address get exposed?”“No idea.” Nicole was puzzled too. When she and Leighton had gone public with their relationship, the reporters ha

Leighton was speechless.After ten minutes, the car finally came to a stop.The house was a villa, but the entire villa area had been abandoned previously. The developer went bankrupt, and the assets were liquidated. A few years ago, a new developer took over and completed the final touches, finally making it available for use. However, this place was quite remote, and being close to the crematorium, property prices had sharply declined. There were listings everywhere online, offering low prices. Those purchasing villas here were generally not short of money. Due to the unfavorable location of this house, not many people chose to live here.The house was far from the city center, and with the overcast sky, darkness had already descended by the time they arrived. There were scarcely any lights on the road. Leighton glanced out the window, observing the willows casting eerie shadows under the dim streetlights. The more he stared, the more unsettled he felt. Quickly averting his gaze,

Kaden visibly bristled at Leighton's words, taking a full two seconds to compose himself before responding, his face contorted with anger. "Who do you think you are? What do you know about her and me?"Leighton silently mused, "I couldn't care less about their dynamic, but if a woman who can handle me is getting bullied by someone else, how embarrassing would that be if it got out? I need to assert myself in front of this domineering guy so she knows I've got her back—it's not that I can't hold my own against her, but I'm cutting her some slack because she's a woman."Leighton impatiently retorted, "You talk too much! Wrap it up and get lost already. A non-blood-related big brother hanging around his stepsister's place in the dead of night— even if she's okay with it, I’m not!"Since Leighton joined the conversation, Nicole remained silent. She stood there, observing Leighton with a peculiar expression, and even at the last sentence, a hint of amusement flickered in her eyes, tinged

Nicole remarked, "You ran quite a distance, and I had to wander around searching for you for what felt like ages."Leighton, with a hint of discontent, retorted, "I was just behind your house. Who do you think you're kidding?"Nicole was surprised, "I thought you headed toward the main gate, so I searched for you along the main road. I never imagined you could circle around the back. I ended up walking in the wrong direction and making a full circle before I finally found you."Leighton felt a bit relieved and quipped, "Who would've guessed you'd be this clueless? Why didn't you check the places with seating first?"As for Nicole... She did indeed check places with chairs. Who would've thought he'd end up in the children's area with his long limbs?"Wait, if I hadn't found you, were you planning on spending the whole night there?"Leighton shot her a glare. "If you had made me wait all night, I would've tweeted tomorrow accusing you of cheating with a college student! Trying to f
