Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 512

Chapter 512

Wenham's expression suddenly turned grim, as he was oblivious to the mastermind of the incident.

Keegan looked toward Stella, but her poker face remained and she did not look back. She was waiting to see how Keegan would cover for Aurora. Sure enough, Keegan responded without wasting another second. "Uncle Wenham, this matter was truly caused by Aurora. The fault is on our part for not disciplining her. I'll make sure she personally comes and apologize for the trouble she caused."

Stella was astonished. She was hoping that Keegan would stand up for Aurora. She did not expect he would admit Aurora's wrongdoing so straightforwardly. 'Is he trying to feint ignorance?' she thought. Since Keegan had apologized, Wenham did not try to shame Keegan in front of everyone anymore. He said with a frown, "Aurora is too disrespectful. Jaylene's issue aside, she shouldn't have locked Ms. Jewell in the ladies' room just because they were at odds with each other. How was she even brought up?"

Keegan scowled and said, "Our family has given too much leeway to her."

Darcie, realizing that the conversation became stiff, warmly said, "Let bygone be bygones. Let's talk about something happy."

Stella looked at Darcie in surprise. 'From how Trevor and Jaylene called Darcie, Jaylene should be Darcie's biological daughter. The Saun family patriarch and heir treated Jaylene like a treasure. On the other hand, her mother is quite open-hearted. Despite that, one word from Darcie is enough for Wenham to drop the case with the latter grunting "Outrageous"."

Stella was slightly disappointed that her provocation had failed but was glad to know that the Saun family was quite cultured. If the roles were reversed, she would have already sought vengeance. She lifted her glass and said to Jaylene, "Ms. Saun, you should use an alternative and not push yourself too hard with the alcohol. Here's a toast to you." She downed the glass as she finished speaking.

"I like your straightforward attitude, Ms. Jewell." Trevor smiled and poured Stella another glass. "This glass is for the successful signing of the contract."

Stella did not reject and reciprocated Trevor's toast. Trevor, who was surprised to find out that Stella could hold her ground even after two glasses of white wine, poured her another glass. Without waiting for her response, Keegan interjected. "I'll drink to you in her stead. She's a light drinker."

Stella was flabbergasted. 'He can't even handle two glasses worth of wine, yet he dares to say I can't handle alcohol?!'

Not waiting for her to speak up, Trevor interjected. "If it's toasting between men, we'll use the mug instead." Picking up the mug as he finished speaking, he poured Keegan a mugful of white wine and said, "Here's to our reunion."

Keegan's eye twitched from seeing the white wine in front of him.

Stella frowned. Aren't Trevor and Keegan friends? Why is he toasting to Keegan as if he hates him? Don't tell me it's because Keegan introduced to him a girlfriend.

Will Keegan ever get up if he drinks the wine?'

Stella lowered her eyes, and her fingers slowly stroked the chopsticks, not uttering a sound. Wenham immediately brought up his own mug. "Here, let me toast to you as well."
