Mr. Kane Got cklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 6
Chapter 6
After seeing Ste, Keegan was no longer in the mood to discuss business. He did not stay for long
and left soon after. Just as Vermont returned to the lobby, he saw Andrewing downstairs. Vermont
looked around and asked, “Where’s Dusk Gxy? Why didn’t shee down with you?” “She left a
while ago. Didn’t you see her downstairs?” Vermont was confused. He peered at the front desk. The
receptionist whispered, “She’s the one who just came out of the elevator. The one who looked
exceptionally pretty and nodded at you.” Vermont was stunned. ‘Ste Jewell is Dusk Gxy?! The
world looks a little magical now. Keegan’s for-show wife—the parvenu who’d asionally show off her
riches and love life on social media—is actually a top-tier voice actor. So, Keegan spent money to
snatch his wife’s job and gave the job to Be? This is…spicy!’ he thought. Seeing Vermont’s
expression, Andrew frowned. “You’re squinting your eyes again. Who are you trying to set
up?” Vermont smiled. “It’s a secret.” … ‘Keegan Kane, you impotent son of a bitch! Who wants your
stupid bracelet? Save your money and use it to see a doctor! I don’t want it!’ Ste thought. The more
Ste thought of the man’s words, the angrier she felt. While scrolling through her phone, she suddenly
saw the fertility clinic’s slogan on the application homepage. She paused momentarily before booking
an appointment. Right after she finished filling out her information, her phone rang. Ste nced at
the iing caller ID and subconsciously frowned. Then, she took her time before epting the
call. “Hey, dad.” “Where are you?” Ste could not tell what Albert wanted, so she lied, “I’m at a private
lesson. What’s wrong?” “Nothing. Come over with Keegan once your lesson is over. My friend gave me
some white truffles. Doesn’t your mother-inw like truffles a lot? You two shoulde over and take
some.” ‘I’ve lived for 26 years, and I dare say that Albert Jewell doesn’t even know what I like. Yet, he
knows what my mother-inw likes. How ironic is that?’ Ste thought. “Alright.” Albert felt relieved after
hearing Ste agree. He asked her a few perfunctory questions and hung up. Ste went to the
automobile service center and retrieved her Porsche Cayenne. The car was a part of the marriage
dowry the Jewell family gave her, costing nearly a million. After changing its bumper, one could not tell
how seriously damaged it was before. ‘Looking back, I still feel upset. Once I get a divorce, I’ll probablyN?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.
only get this car,’ she thought. Ste could not help but feel regretful at that thought. ‘I should’ve driven
Keegan’s Bugatti that day. If I can’t stab him in the chest, I’ll stab him in the wallet!’ she thought
again. Ste purposefully called her tutor and booked ast-minute private lesson to make her lie seem
more realistic. Ste dawdled until six in the evening before she finally drove to the Jewell
residence. Once she arrived at the door, sheposed herself and rang the doorbell. Sophia opened
the door. She was the adopted daughter of the Jewell family. “Ste, you’re here,” she said happily.
Then, she peered behind Ste, “Where’s Keegan?” “Something came up at thest minute, so he
couldn’t make it.” Sophia’s expression evidently turned disappointed. She grumbled slightly, “Then, why
didn’t you say so earlier?” Ste nced over Sophia’s dolled-up look and countered, “You’re all dolled
up tonight. You got a date?” Sophia froze and avoided Ste’s gaze. She vaguely responded, “No. I
was just practicing.” However, Ste had already entered the house. Sophia gritted her teeth and
followed her. Albert thought that Keegan would surelye, so he got the servants to prepare many
dishes. In the end, only Ste came. Naturally, Albert did not look happy. He stared at Ste and
studied her expression. Ste’s facade was wless. Even experienced people like Albert could not tell
if she was telling the truth. Momentster, he finally spoke, “Let’s eat.” Ste breathed a sigh of relief. ‘I
can’t let Albert know about the divorce before I get the divorce certificate. Otherwise, things might go
south,’ she thought. The dining hall of the Jewell residence was enormous, yet only the three of them
ate there. As a child, Ste had never been quite close with Albert. After her mother—Rainee Spade—
got into a car ident and fell into a vegetative state, she and Albert’s rtionship grew even stiffer.
Their stiff rtionship only got a little better after her marriage with Keegan. However, it was only on
the surface. The father and daughter seemed more like blood-rted strangers whenever Keegan was
not around. On the other hand, he and Sophia—the adopted daughter—seemed more like the
biological father and daughter. Compared to Ste’s dull demeanor, Sophia was lively and a sweet-
talker. While they ate, Sophia made jokes from time to time to entertain Albert. Even though Ste
found that Sophia’s jokes wereme, Albertughed along. The way the two showed affection as if no
one was around made Ste lose her appetite. “I got a new job recently, dad. Since the clients I usually
meet are of pretty impressive status, I want to change to a better car. It’ll be more convenient for
work.” After entertaining Albert, Sophia started making requests. “Sure. What kind of car do you have in
mind?” “Well, I don’t necessarily have to get a new one, just one that’s slightly better than this one. An
old one will do,” Sophia said while shifting her gaze toward Ste. However, Ste lowered her gaze
and ate her food. She had no intentions of joining the conversation. In the end, Sophia had no choice
but to address her directly, “Ste, could I use your Cayenne in the meantime?” Ste still did not
speak. Sophia continued, “You don’t drive it often, anyway. Even if somethinges up, Keegan has
plenty of cars at home, so you’re not short on cars. Won’t you lend it to me for a while? Ste, you’re
not that stingy, right?” “You don’t know me well.” Ste looked up and nced at her, “I’ve never been
generous. Cars are like husbands. How could one simply let others borrow their husbands?” Sophia
choked, and her face reddened in embarrassment. Albert frowned. “Did you have to say that? We’re
family. What’s wrong with letting Sophia use your car for a while?”
