Chapter 1962novelbin

"Who do we have here? The heir of the Kane family. To what do | owe the pleasure?" Cyrene's tone was casual, but upon closerinspection, it carried a hint of sarcasm.

She still harbored resentment toward Keegan for reporting Jackson to the police earlier. Even though Jackson returned safely,Cyrene couldn't swallow her pride as a mother.

If it weren't for Chandler consistently advising him not to act impulsively, she would have had her whole family come over anddemand justice.

Keegan remained composed facing Cyrene's cold remarks. His tone was mild, "My mom got arrested."

Cyrene chuckled. "Well, what goes around comes around."

Keegan pressed on, "Chandler's not home, is he?"

Cyrene paused. "Why do you ask?"

Keegan explained, 'My mom needs reinforcements. Who else can she turn to in the Kane family besides Chandler?"Cyrene's expression darkened. "Are you calling to mock me?"

"No, I'm here to pick you up."

Cyrene was taken aback. "What did you say?"

Keegan explained calmly, "My mom could've found anyone in the Kane family for help, but she chose Chandler. | don't think it'sappropriate for him to go alone. What do you think?"

Cyrene clenched her hands, her face revealing a hesitant expression. After a moment, she asked, "Where are you?"“At your doorstep.”

This left Cyrene speechless.

"You can come out. Your friends are gone. No one will know about this," Keegan continued.

"He even considered my dignity.’ Taking a deep breath, Cyrene reluctantly admitted that Keegan, in many aspects, surpassedJackson. Dahlia's foolishness couldn't compare to Keegan’s sensibility.

Not long after Keegan's wait, Cyrene emerged. Donning a coat and vibrant outfit, she approached the car.

Keegan stepped out, opening the rear door with a courteous gesture.

As Cyrene settled into the car, she pursed her lips and asked, "Keegan, what exactly are you planning?"

Keegan closed the door, sitting upright. Half of his face was bathed in light, while the other remained in the shadows.

"I'm just upholding the Kane family's reputation for Grandma. If Chandler bails my mother out tonight, who knows what rumorsmight circulate tomorrow? Even if we decide to bail her out, it has to be in your presence. It would not look good if otherwise.”"Do you think | would help bail out Dahlia?" Cyrene sneered.

Keegan replied in disdain, "Whether you bail her out or not is your business. I'm just responsible for bringing you there. | don'twant my father's reputation to be tarnished by his brother and wife."

Staring at Keegan, Cyrene tried to decipher his expression. Yet, Keegan remained indifferent, even when discussing Dahlia'sarrest.

"Why don't you go bail out your mom yourself?" asked Cyrene

Keegan nonchalantly said, "She committed such an act under surveillance, and it was even broadcast live. No matter howcapable | am, | can't cover it up for her. | can't let the Kane family and Vinci Rivera suffer because of her, can |?"

Cyrene felt irritated. ‘He doesn't want to get involved in the mess, so he had my husband do it? Who would bear the blame ifDahlia were to be released, and it generated attention online?’

‘Considering Keegan's previous incident, my family had finally regained some standing within the company. We can't afford tolose it again because of this,’ she thought.
