Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 2160

With red eyes, Jaylene said, "What about you? You tried to arrange a marriage between me and Aaron without even telling me. Are you giving your daughter away for the sake of your career and client?"

Darcie was furious. "Sometimes | really wonder if you have a brain or not. It was just a simple meal. How was | giving you away? Do you realize what year it is now? Could | possibly hold a knife to your back and force you to marry Aaron?

"If | didn't do this, do you think Mrs. Esper would agree to meet US? She and Mrs. Depp are good friends, and she treats Aaron like her own son. Aaron has feelings for you; if you'd just played along with me, | could've definitely won Mrs. Esper back as my client!

“But what did you do? You offended both of them at the same time! Do you know how many ongoing projects the Esper family has with our company? Mrs. Esper is only going to deal with Stella now. Do you realize how much money we're going to lose?"

Jaylene muttered while still crying, "Even so, the projects are still under Caline’s name, and all the earnings will have to go through the company's account first. You won't lose a lot of money.”

Darcie paused, glanced at Jaylene with a disdainful look, then sneered without saying anything.

Jaylene knew she was in the wrong for lying and coming to see Keegan while pretending to be sick, so she apologized softly, “Mom, I'm sorry. | shouldn't have lied to you. But Keegan has just recovered, and he can't drink much alcohol now.

"| was just too worried about him. He didn't call me to help him; | came on my own. You shouldn't have said those things to him just now."

Darcie scoffed. "He didn't call you, but you still threw yourself at him? How shameless can you be? Are you still thinking that Keegan will someday marry you?"

Jaylene clenched her fists, looking very angry. Darcie had never said such harsh words to her before, and she could not help but retort, "Why wouldn't he? He and Stella are divorced now. He can't even remember who she is. Why can't | marry him?

"Just because your husband's daughter was once married to him, you're afraid that Dad will be angry with you after | marry him? Are you going to sacrifice my happiness just because you don't want your marriage and your status as Mrs. Saun to be affected? How could you be so selfish?"

Darcie was burning with anger. ’Did you just call me selfish? Jaylene Saun, I’ve spent so much effort raising you over the years, and now you say I'm selfish? Are you capable of thinking about anything else besides your romantic fantasies?

"If Keegan really has feelings for you, why didn't he stop Mrs. Depp from hitting you when he was right beside you? He was willing to risk his life to save Stella, but when it came to you, he didn't even bother stepping in to stop you from getting slapped.
