Mr. Kane Got cklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 276
Chapter 276
Ste furrowed her eyebrows. “If Arthur wants to see Keegan, I could just bring him over. Since we
both work in the morning, no one would be home. Who would take care of him if you were to send him
here? Arthur’s mature in age, and if idents were to happen, won’t I be the target forints?”

She whispered in a low voice. “Keegan’s just like us. What part of him is so good to look at?”
Albert was not satisfied and reprimanded, “What are you trying to say? Have you forgotten the time you
returned to your great–grandparent’s home when you were young? Arthur, who loved you the most,
would give you the best of everything. Won’t you fulfill hisst wish since his days are already limited?
How will this trouble you since you’re living so well? Besides, even if Keegan has gone to work, you are
still idling at home, right? How would I answer your aunts and uncles if you disagree? Pass the phone
to Keegan so I can talk to him.”
‘He made a promise even before calling, and yet he mes me? Rather than Keegan, it would be
much better to speak to me. Keegan’s more vicious with his words and is very particr. Would he
even agree to let a stranger in if it would negatively impact his lifestyle?‘
Ste then thought, ‘Fine. I’ll let Keegan have the phone. Maybe his vicious tongue could make Albert
back off.‘
She then passed the phone to Keegan. “My father wants to speak with you.”
Keegan nced at her and took the phone. Ste could not get to sleep as she sat beside Keegan,
waiting for him to reject Albert viciously. Keegan waited for Albert to finish rambling before he said
indifferently, “Alright. I’ll arrange for someone to clean up the guest room.‘
Ste could not believe what she had heard. She waited for Keegan to hang up before asking,.” Why
did you agree?”
Keegan returned the phone to her. “Can I even reject it when your father has it all nned?”
‘Bullshit! Has he already forgotten how many times he had heartlessly refused? What’s going on with
Keegan today?‘
Ste pursed her lips, only to speak up after a long while, “You allowed him toe. If his being here
aggravates you, you’ll have to ept the consequences yourself. Don’tin to me since I never
agreed to it.”
Keegan’s lips twitched as he said, “Are you heartless? Who do you think I did this for?”
Ste curled up in her nket, closed her eyes, and mumbled, “I didn’t want you to agree. I’ll at most
get scolded by father since this is not the first time anyway.”
Keegan suddenly recalled the incident at the hospital, where Ste came home with a p mark on her
face after seeing Albert. It was all because Albert discovered Dahlia had not received the two boxes of
white truffles.
‘Albert would only treat her nicely when I’m around. Her days with the Jewell family might not have
been as easy as I had imagined.‘
His tossing and turning finally annoyed Ste, and she went outside with the nket to turn in for the
night.
Keegan took out his phone and pondered for a long while before he messaged Felicity, [What did
Albert do to Ste?]
Felicity was in a game when she received the message. Her hands identally jerked, causing her to
miss, and the opponent defeated her.
The teammates scolded her. “Are you trying to act like a newbie? You stole the jungle and bottom
lanes, yet you missed when the enemy was right in your face? Why fight for the mage role when you
don’t even know how to use it?”
“Aren’t you just throwing the game by picking Ang?”
“Your trashy ys wasted my chance for a rank–up!”
“I can’t believe I joined a newbie team! Quickly surrender so I can start the next game!”
The corners of Felicity’s mouth twitched. She turned on the mic and verbally retaliated. “I wanted to
help pick the heroes since I was the first to pick, yet no one replied on their microphone. Did I smear
your family name by picking a mage? How attractive is the middlene for everyone to steal it? Don’t
you dare spit at me if you don’t even know how to check the bushes as Yaria! The opponent jungler
had already stolen several minion waves from their middlene. Yet, our jungler was only leisurely
farming in the jungle while hitchhiking as Yaria. Are you even trying? Rank up? Go rank up somewhere
else! Get stuck in the Silver Order, you newbies! I’m not surrendering!”
Felicity was muted by the game when sheshed out in anger.
All her teammates were bbergasted. She responded in kind to all their remarks by cussing at them
respectively.
Only after releasing her anger did she reply to Keegan, [Mr. Kane, why don’t you ask your wife
directly?]
The current her was in awe, yet afraid of Keegan. She could only avoid offending him as much as
possible.
Keegan bit his lip. [She’s asleep.]
‘Why can’t you ask her tomorrow?‘ Felicity silently cursed. ‘How strange for Keegan to message just to
ask about Ste.‘
[Ste’s father favored male over female and had always been brooding over her mother’s inability to
bear another child due to her weak constitution. He never gave Ste the attention she deserved. It
was still bearable when her mother was still around. After her mother was met with bad luck, the family
business was in a crisis. The first thing on her father’s mind was to set her up in an arranged marriage.]
[What despicable man would refrain from taking a beauty like her as their wife? Ste’s father couldn’t
care less about the spouse’s age difference or their previous affairs. As long as they can help him tide
over the difficulties in his business, he would marry her off to older men. It’s good that she met you
though you aren’t perfect…]
Having slipped her tongue identally, Felicity paused and became cautious. She only continued after
noticing Keegan’s silence. [Anyway, it’s gotten better since the marriage these past few years. He’s
afraid of you, and he’ll treat Ste slightly better just for your sake.]
Felicity, having gained courage after writing all that, asked, [Mr. Kane, will you really give
Ste a billion dors after the divorce?]
Keegan’s vein twitched.
‘Damn it. Just how many people did she inform about the divorce?‘
Keegan maintained his poker face. [No.]
Felicity immediately panicked. [Haven’t you signed the divorce papers? You’re not fooling anyone.]
Keegan coldly replied, (When have I mentioned I wanted a divorce?]
[What?]
[Don’t let Ste know I looked for you. Otherwise,] Keegan paused, [I can end the copyright as quickly
as having you signed on for it.]
‘Keegan was the one to pull the strings for the copyright sale? Why did he help me in the dark?
‘thought Felicity as she pondered over the past. He framed her for stealing the rings, and she was sent
to the police station. After returning, her boss immediately told her that someone wanted to buy the
copyrights to her work.
‘Everything was going too fast then. Now that I think about it, good and bad things normally don’te
consecutively. Is Keegan trying topensate me? What would Keegan get out of all this?‘
In a moment of epiphany, Felicity came up with a weird guess. ‘Could Keegan be doing it for Ste?‘
If Felicity was jailed, Keegan would not get anything out of this, yet he contracted her scripts, giving her
a tidy sum. The only difference was that Ste had to move back with him.
‘He created such a huge fiasco so that Ste would return home on her own? This has to be a joke…‘
