Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 2101

But the aunties were very friendly.

"Oh, Florence. Felicity's boyfriend is so handsome! I like him!"

"No wonder you said that you were not interested when I introduced my friend's son to Felicity before. It turns out that she already has a boyfriend, and they're even living together. They're such a good match. "Young man, how old are you? Where are you from? What do you do for a living?"

"Since you two already have a child together, when are you planning to have the wedding?"

Vermont awkwardly said, "What child? We don't have a child."

"You just mentioned something about a child on the phone earlier. Didn't you say that Felicity has a child already?"

At this point, Vermont gave up.

He was impressed by how that person heard just a word he said on the phone and came up with a whole different story on her own.

Facing his future mother-in-law, no matter how embarrassed he felt, he dared not to hang up abruptly again. After all, the happiness of his marriage would still depend on whether Florence approved of him. So, he cleared his throat and explained, "You heard it wrongly. I was saying that Felicity is still young, her career is on the rise, and there's no rush to have a child now. I want her to live her life first and only have a child when she's ready to do so.

"When she's with me, she can do whatever she wants and not be constrained by anyone."

Felicity's relatives did not understand a thing he said, but Florence did.

She sized up the young man on the screen, whose gaze looked genuine as if he was showing her his determination and sincerity.

Florence smirked and thought, 'Felicity's father looked just as sincere back then, but what happened?

'A man can sound as sincere as possible when making promises. Although they can be genuine, most of them can't walk the talk.' Then, Florence said flatly, "I'll call you back later. Bye."

Vermont felt uneasy as he could sense that Florence was not very satisfied with him, even though he had stayed in Felicity's hometown before and had brief interactions with her.

Florence was not exactly cold, but she was not very friendly either. She was strong-willed and sharp-minded, able to see through people with just one glance.

'It seems like the mother-in-law is going to be a lot harder to deal with compared to the daughter,' Vermont thought to himself.

Vermont twisted the doorknob to Felicity's room, intending to ask what Florence liked so he could cater to her preferences. But as soon as he opened the door, he saw Felicity hiding under the blanket, covering herself tightly.

He sat down on the edge of the bed and said, "Hey, miss bandit."

Felicity pulled the blanket down slightly and revealed her wide eyes. "Have you hung up?" she asked in a muffled voice. "Yeah," Vermont responded.

"I didn't expect you to be dressing like that!"

Then, he chuckled and flicked her cat ears. "Who are you supposed to be? The mouse from Ratatouille?"

"Are you an idiot?" Felicity angrily grabbed her tail and swung it in front of Vermont's face. "I'm a cat! A cat!"

Vermont touched the tail; it felt surprisingly soft.

Felicity noticed his lowered gaze and made a playful "meow."
