Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel 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.
