Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 169

Chapter 169

His voice was getting smaller as he continued, and in the end, he shut up.

'Alright, who knew I would come up with such a crappy idea?' Vermont thought. As he was thinking, Stella returned.

Vermont knew how to read the room and immediately said, "Mrs. Kane, I have some business at my company and will be leaving first. You take good care of Keegan. If anything happens, you can call me anytime."

Keegan gave him a sidelong glance and then said, "How unfitting of you to leave empty. You can take the fruit basket with you."

"I'm not the patient. Why should I eat the fruits

"Vermont cut himself off. He suddenly

realized that Keegan was not letting him bring the fruits with him. This fellow was just using another way to subtly hint that Vermont had come empty-handed.

"I won't be taking the fruit basket. Mrs. Kane, you should keep this card. There are 500 thousand dollars in it. It's the payment that I promised you. The extra will be counted as compensation for Keegan's lost labor and reparations for your mental health since both of you had to encounter such a terrible incident because of me."

Stella looked at it but did not accept it. "My husband's daily income is quite high. It would take at least a week's rest after his elbow had suffered such a hit, right, hubby?" She was implying that more money is needed.

Keegan was pleased by her calling him hubby and lifted his gaze slowly to look at Vermont. "It depends on the recovery of the injury. At a minimum, a week while at most, half a month."

Stella then gave an 'I told you so' look at Vermont. Vermont's lips twitched. These two were definitely made for each other. Under these circumstances, they can still join together to scam him out of his money. To think that he wanted to help Keegan before this. Where did he need his help? Both husband and wife have already reconciled, and the first person they want to deal with is him.

Actually, Stella did not want to screw him over on purpose. She was slightly resentful of Vermont. He was at the scene last night; how could he watch Keegan be slashed by someone like that? Hence, she made him lose a bit of money, or else she would not be able to swallow her anger.

Based on Keegan's stance, if he did not lose this bit of money, he would probably make him pay it back in double. Vermont had always been sensible, so he quickly admitted defeat. He immediately signed a two-million-dollar check and gave it to Stella. "It was thoughtless of me, Mrs. Kane. You can keep the check and cash it in at any bank in Rivera. This should be enough for your husband's lost wages, right?" Stella took the check and grabbed the card he had given previously. "Although it's still lacking, we're friends. This should be enough. Being too calculative would hurt our relationship." Vermont was at a loss for words. 'Just die in chains, you stingy wife and husband!' He cursed in his head.

After Vermont left, Keegan said, "Two million and five hundred thousand doesn't sound good.

Stella initially thought Keegan was complaining that she was too greedy for taking the check and the card. The next second, she heard him say, "You should have gotten five million in total." Stella was speechless. She definitely had thought of Keegan too kindly, but he was actually even more ruthless than she was. Keegan said casually, "He got the bracelet for less than 20 million." Stella, at that moment, felt that Vermont was the most wicked person they knew!

"Never mind, since it is a windfall" Stella then gave the check to Keegan. "I'll have the bank card, and I'll give you the check."

Keegan did not accept it and looked at the left side of her face. He furrowed his brows. "What's wrong with your face?"

When Stella entered, the right side of her face was always facing him, so he did not notice it. When she passed the check, she turned her whole body around, and the handprint on her left cheek became more evident. Stella pulled some of the hair on her left side to block the handprint and said softly, "Nothing's wrong."
