Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1554

Chapter 1554

Back then, Keegan's memory was a blur after a few too many drinks. He could not recall what had happened.

When he saw Stella in tears, he had no choice but to take her words at face value.

Keegan was not one to offer apologies to smooth things over. Instead, he sent Aldor a snapshot of the Clivia and

asked for his assistance in procuring a replacement that matched as closely as possible.

"Didn't you try transplanting it?" Aldor asked.

Keegan replied, "I think I might've stepped on it. It didn't look salvageable."

His words left Aldor at a loss for words. Aldor distinctly remembered that it was Stella who accidentally knocked

over the plant. 'Since when did it become Mr. Kane's doing?'

At that moment, he could not help but think that his boss was a little gullible. Keegan seemed to believe everything

Stella told him.

As Keegan reflected on bringing back the new plant, he recalled gauging Stella's reaction and noticing that she did

not seem entirely pleased. So, in a misguided attempt to make amends, he even gifted her a bag. Now that he

thought about it, he was furious with himself.

Keegan ground his teeth and asked, "Was that potted flower really a birthday gift from Madam Spade?"

Stella responded meekly, "I got it for a couple hundred bucks online."

Keegan's anger increased. "Is there anything else you've kept from me?"

Stella softly admitted, "Actually, my dad didn't paint you in such a bad light. He said you're handsome, reliable, and

capable. He praised you for being the CEO of a company at such a young age. Not to mention your remarkable

work in robotics. He even noted your considerate nature. He said I'd be in good hands with you."

Keegan could not believe his ears. He struggled to maintain a stern expression. "I'm still upset. What are you

getting at by saying that to me?"

Stella reached up and gently caressed his chest. "Didn't you ask if there was anything else I hadn't been entirely

truthful about?"

Keegan held her hand firmly. "Flattery will get you nowhere."

"I messed up. Will you please forgive me?" Stella's tone lacked a certain sincerity. It leaned more toward

playfulness. However, against his better judgment, Keegan fell for it.

He shot a quick glance at the sly woman and huffed, "No more next time, got it?"

Stella gave him a thumbs-up. "You're quite forgiving, Mr. Kane."

Keegan then cast a glance at Aldor. "You too. No more

stirring the pot.."

Aldor remained quiet. 'Damn. He let himself be swayed again by a few sweet words.'

Stella recalled Aldor's recent suggestion and suddenly had an epiphany. "I think I've figured out how to handle

Chris."

"What do you have in mind?" Keegan inquired.

Stella planted a soft kiss on his cheek. "I'll fill you in over dinner."

In apartment 902 at Clouditude International, Felicity stood before the bathroom mirror, assessing herself.

'Is it really that obvious I'm not wearing a bra beneath this pajama top? This feels a tad too daring of me.' She

picked up her bra and intended to put it on when a knock came at the bathroom door.

"Miss Bandit, are you done in there?"
