Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1961

Stella suppressed laughter and spoke warmly, "It's hard to tell with kids.

I used to spend a lot of time outdoors as a child, and I didn't get fair right away.

As you grow up and take care of yourself, your skin will naturally lighten over time.

But even if it doesn't, that's perfectly fine.

What matters is that you're healthy and confident.

All skin tones are beautiful." Coco perked up when she heard that.

She then set a time to meet up with Stella and turned off her phone.

Stella looked at the photos Coco had sent her.

She couldn't quite pinpoint who Coco resembled, but it definitely wasn't Marshall.

'Marshall must have seen Coco during Keegan's "funeral".

At that time, he didn't seem to have any particular reaction,' thought Stella.

'Am I overthinking things?' she sighed.

Meanwhile, Cyrene and her friends were playing poker.

"Cyrene, your luck is really something today.

How much did you win?” asked one of her friends.

Cyrene grinned and replied, "What do you mean? I just managed to recover what I lost earlier.

You all better not leave.

We're having supper after we're done playing." "We're fine with that, but we don't want to disturb Chandler," another friend teased.

Cyrene enjoyed the lively atmosphere, often inviting people over for card games.

Chandler, on the other hand, preferred peace.

Every time Cyrene's friends came over, he didn't bother with greetings and just went upstairs.

So, the group of women rarely played too late.

"He can rest while we play.

It won't be a bother," said Cyrene.

As soon as she finished speaking, the study door suddenly opened.

Chandler grabbed his jacket and hurriedly walked out.

Puzzled, Cyrene stood up and asked, "Honey, where are you going so late?" Chandler put on his shoes as he said, "Something urgent came up at the company.

I need to go handle it." "What could be so urgent at the company this late at night?" "You wouldn't understand even if I told you." With that, Chandler opened the door and left.

Cyrene mumbled a couple of words and continued the game.
