Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 276

Chapter 276

Stella furrowed her eyebrows. “If Arthur wants to see Keegan, I could just bring him over. Since weboth work in the morning, no one would be home. Who would take care of him if you were to send himhere? Arthur’s mature in age, and if accidents were to happen, won’t I be the target for complaints?”

She whispered in a low voice. “Keegan’s just like us. What part of him is so good to look at?”

Albert was not satisfied and reprimanded, “What are you trying to say? Have you forgotten the time youreturned to your great–grandparent’s home when you were young? Arthur, who loved you the most,would give you the best of everything. Won’t you fulfill his last wish since his days are already limited?How will this trouble you since you’re living so well? Besides, even if Keegan has gone to work, you arestill idling at home, right? How would I answer your aunts and uncles if you disagree? Pass the phoneto Keegan so I can talk to him.”

‘He made a promise even before calling, and yet he blames me? Rather than Keegan, it would bemuch better to speak to me. Keegan’s more vicious with his words and is very particular. Would heeven agree to let a stranger in if it would negatively impact his lifestyle?‘

Stella then thought, ‘Fine. I’ll let Keegan have the phone. Maybe his vicious tongue could make Albertback off.‘

She then passed the phone to Keegan. “My father wants to speak with you.”

Keegan glanced at her and took the phone. Stella could not get to sleep as she sat beside Keegan,waiting for him to reject Albert viciously. Keegan waited for Albert to finish rambling before he saidindifferently, “Alright. I’ll arrange for someone to clean up the guest room.‘

Stella could not believe what she had heard. She waited for Keegan to hang up before asking,.” Whydid you agree?”

Keegan returned the phone to her. “Can I even reject it when your father has it all planned?”

‘Bullshit! Has he already forgotten how many times he had heartlessly refused? What’s going on withKeegan today?‘

Stella pursed her lips, only to speak up after a long while, “You allowed him to come. If his being hereaggravates you, you’ll have to accept the consequences yourself. Don’t complain to me since I neveragreed to it.”

Keegan’s lips twitched as he said, “Are you heartless? Who do you think I did this for?”

Stella curled up in her blanket, closed her eyes, and mumbled, “I didn’t want you to agree. I’ll at mostget scolded by father since this is not the first time anyway.”

Keegan suddenly recalled the incident at the hospital, where Stella came home with a slap mark on herface after seeing Albert. It was all because Albert discovered Dahlia had not received the two boxes ofwhite truffles.

‘Albert would only treat her nicely when I’m around. Her days with the Jewell family might not havebeen as easy as I had imagined.‘

His tossing and turning finally annoyed Stella, and she went outside with the blanket to turn in for thenight.

Keegan took out his phone and pondered for a long while before he messaged Felicity, [What didAlbert do to Stella?]

Felicity was in a game when she received the message. Her hands accidentally jerked, causing her tomiss, and the opponent defeated her.

The teammates scolded her. “Are you trying to act like a newbie? You stole the jungle and bottomlanes, yet you missed when the enemy was right in your face? Why fight for the mage role when youdon’t even know how to use it?”

“Aren’t you just throwing the game by picking Angela?”novelbin

“Your trashy plays wasted my chance for a rank–up!”

“I can’t believe I joined a newbie team! Quickly surrender so I can start the next game!”

The corners of Felicity’s mouth twitched. She turned on the mic and verbally retaliated. “I wanted tohelp pick the heroes since I was the first to pick, yet no one replied on their microphone. Did I smearyour family name by picking a mage? How attractive is the middle lane for everyone to steal it? Don’tyou dare spit at me if you don’t even know how to check the bushes as Yaria! The opponent junglerhad already stolen several minion waves from their middle lane. Yet, our jungler was only leisurelyfarming in the jungle while hitchhiking as Yaria. Are you even trying? Rank up? Go rank up somewhereelse! Get stuck in the Silver Order, you newbies! I’m not surrendering!”

Felicity was muted by the game when she lashed out in anger.

All her teammates were flabbergasted. She responded in kind to all their remarks by cussing at themrespectively.

Only after releasing her anger did she reply to Keegan, [Mr. Kane, why don’t you ask your wifedirectly?]

The current her was in awe, yet afraid of Keegan. She could only avoid offending him as much aspossible.

Keegan bit his lip. [She’s asleep.]

‘Why can’t you ask her tomorrow?‘ Felicity silently cursed. ‘How strange for Keegan to message just toask about Stella.‘

[Stella’s father favored male over female and had always been brooding over her mother’s inability tobear another child due to her weak constitution. He never gave Stella the attention she deserved. Itwas still bearable when her mother was still around. After her mother was met with bad luck, the familybusiness was in a crisis. The first thing on her father’s mind was to set her up in an arranged marriage.]

[What despicable man would refrain from taking a beauty like her as their wife? Stella’s father couldn’tcare less about the spouse’s age difference or their previous affairs. As long as they can help him tideover the difficulties in his business, he would marry her off to older men. It’s good that she met youthough you aren’t perfect…]

Having slipped her tongue accidentally, Felicity paused and became cautious. She only continued afternoticing Keegan’s silence. [Anyway, it’s gotten better since the marriage these past few years. He’safraid of you, and he’ll treat Stella slightly better just for your sake.]

Felicity, having gained courage after writing all that, asked, [Mr. Kane, will you really give

Stella a billion dollars after the divorce?]

Keegan’s vein twitched.

‘Damn it. Just how many people did she inform about the divorce?‘

Keegan maintained his poker face. [No.]

Felicity immediately panicked. [Haven’t you signed the divorce papers? You’re not fooling anyone.]

Keegan coldly replied, (When have I mentioned I wanted a divorce?]

[What?]

[Don’t let Stella know I looked for you. Otherwise,] Keegan paused, [I can end the copyright as quicklyas having you signed on for it.]

‘Keegan was the one to pull the strings for the copyright sale? Why did he help me in the dark?‘thought Felicity as she pondered over the past. He framed her for stealing the rings, and she was sentto the police station. After returning, her boss immediately told her that someone wanted to buy thecopyrights to her work.

‘Everything was going too fast then. Now that I think about it, good and bad things normally don’t comeconsecutively. Is Keegan trying to compensate me? What would Keegan get out of all this?‘

In a moment of epiphany, Felicity came up with a weird guess. ‘Could Keegan be doing it for Stella?‘

If Felicity was jailed, Keegan would not get anything out of this, yet he contracted her scripts, giving hera tidy sum. The only difference was that Stella had to move back with him.

‘He created such a huge fiasco so that Stella would return home on her own? This has to be a joke…‘
