Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 2056

Stella, fully immersed in her role, had neglected to eat properly.

She sat at her desk snacking on treats Keegan had packed for her while going through documents Aubrey had given her on Caline's different departments.

Since rebranding from Enchanted to Caline, the company had been growing steadily.

Darcie had orchestrated a big reshuffle among the core team members, and those who remained were probably her closest allies.

Stella understood that to infiltrate their circle, she and Trevor had to position their own people within the company.

"Is this new girl we're bringing in gonna be reliable? She's so young, born in 2002," Stella thought to herself.

Her phone buzzed, pulling her out of her thoughts.

It was Felicity, asking about Stella's first day at work.

Stella grabbed her phone, snapped a quick picture of her office, and sent it to Felicity, saying, "What do you think? Pretty big, huh?" Felicity replied in amazement, "Wow, that's massive! Need any help? Hire me!" Stella chuckled and replied: [Vermont offered you five grand a month to be his assistant, and you refused.

You think you'd like my salary?] Felicity typed: [It's different.

Earning his money is like moving it from one pocket to the other.

Earning yours is real profit.

The amount doesn't matter.

It's about sharing the wealth and facing difficulties together.] Stella was lost for words.

She responded: [You picked up bad habits fast.

Look at you now, you sounded just like that miser Vermont.] Felicity laughed heartily and asked: [So, first day in, did the motherdaughter duo give you a hard time?] Stella replied: [I sent Darcie away, and as for Jaylene, she poses no threat.] Felicity inquired: [Where did you send her?] Stella provided a brief explanation.

Felicity was astounded and typed: [You're really something, using your dad as a tool.

Doesn't his innocence matter?] Stella responded: [Actually, it's good for my dad to go out with her.

She definitely won't be at ease with Caline's daily operations in her absence.

I don't believe she can remain that composed.

We need her to slip up in front of my dad.

Once his trust in her wavers, it'll be easier to dismantle her defenses step by step.] Felicity pondered and asked: [Do you think she married your father for his personality or money?] Stella replied: [Hard to say. Definitely for the money, but as for liking him as a person, I'm not sure.] In Stella's opinion, Darcie was really good at hiding how she felt.

Stella couldn't figure out if Darcie genuinely cared about Wenham, but it seemed like she did, taking care of every little thing for him, even his blood pressure meds.

The doctor overseeing Wenham's health credited Darcie for maintaining his diet and routine, which, aside from hereditary hypertension, kept him healthier than his peers.

This indicated Darcie's dedication.

Stella even believed that if it were not for her unexpected return, Darcie might have genuinely planned to spend her life with Wenham.

But Stella's return messed that up.

Stella asked: [Let's not dwell on that.

How about you? Didn't you say someone bought your script recently? How's that going?] Felicity replied: [It's okay, I guess.

Whether it'll be adapted, I don't know, but I did make some money.] Stella asked: [How much?] Felicity sighed and replied: [Twenty grand before tax.

I used to think selling a script for a hundred thousand was the norm.

Now I realize only your husband is that generous.

He was willing to pay a hundred thousand for the scripts I wrote back then.]
