Chapter 1558


    Mr. Kane Got cklisted Chapter 1558 [Eleven Jewell]


    “Scripts that don’t turn a profit won’t keep selling, no matter how many favors you owe. No one’s in the


    industry for


    charity,” Vermont factually stated.


    Felicity seemed to grasp the concept, but there was still a hint of confusion in her expression. She cut


    to the chase and


    asked, “Can you be more specific?”


    Vermontughed and said, “The average price for an apartment in the neighborhood we just left is only


    slightly lower than


    Clouditude International. She’s a screenwriter with an average family background and who hasn’t


    written a blockbuster.


    How do you reckon she affords a ce like that?”


    This caught Felicity off guard.


    Her supervisor’s ce was anything but small. It was around 4000 square feet, with an average price


    of over ten grand


    per square foot. It was a mansion worth nearly half a billion and definitely not within financial reach for


    a screenwriter like


    her superior.


    “Why did security let those people in? Have you considered that perhaps the house is registered under


    the married


    couple’s name? Maybe even those script offers she gets are all thanks to her boyfriend’s connections?”


    Felicity’s expression turned serious. “Are you suggesting she knew about the affair?”


    Vermont replied calmly, “I can’t say. But, for a house this expensive, how could she not have done a


    background check on


    her boyfriend? Moreover…”


    He paused. “When you both came out of the bedroom, her facial expressions didn’t seem quite right


    after she heard that I


    called the police. She clearly didn’t want to involve the authorities, but maybe she didn’t say anything


    because I was


    there.”

    When the police arrived and asked Felicity’s supervisor some questions, the woman’s responses were


    all very vague. She


    did not seem like someone who had suffered property damage and a threat to her personal safety, nor


    someone who was


    eager to seek justice. This was particrly odd to Vermont.


    Felicity tried to recall the situation upon hearing that. After a while, she said, “She doesn’t seem like


    that kind of person.


    She has always been good to us at work, especially to the neers. One time, a neer messed


    up some


    documents and caused a problem in thepany, but my supervisor stepped in to take the me.


    She’s also rather low key when ites to her personal life. I just can’t imagine her ruining someone


    else’s rtionship.”


    ording to Felicity’s understanding, the other woman was usually conniving like Hylda. Her superior


    did not fit the mold


    at all. She could not fathom how someone who seemed so elegant, sessful, and gentle could be a


    homewrecker.


    Vermont chuckled and said, “That’s because you haven’t met many people. Humans are inherently


    complex. One’s


    professional abilities and adept social skills don’t entirely represent their morality.”


    In the early days of his business, Vermont often mingled in various social circles. He had met people


    from all walks of life.


    Some of them had the worst personalities. However, once they were in public, they were known as


    good fathers, good


    husbands, and good leaders. This went on as long as they kept up with their facade.


    Vermont thought about the circumstances. He could not help but feel uneasy and worried for Felicity.


    “Why don’t you pretend like you know nothing about what happened today. Don’t ask any questions


    and don’t discuss the


    situation with anyone. Just continue to do what you’ve been doing. Try to have as little contact as


    possible with your


    supervisor outside of work.”


    Felicity still found it hard to believe that her superior would ruin someone’s rtionship. “Maybe she


    was tricked by that


    asshole,” she whispered.


    “Even so, that’s her business. You should stay out of it. I know you have your principles and morals, but


    when ites to


    other people’s private matters, I think you shouldn’t get involved.”


    Although Felicity still believed that her supervisor was fooled, she was willing to heed Vermont’s advice.


    After all, he would


    not harm her.


    However, Felicity was feeling a bit resentful. “It’s all those despicable men’s fault. They act like a hot


    shot and trick girls


    into falling for them. They’re all liars and master maniptors! I’m not gonna go easy on any of them if


    we ever cross


    paths!”


    Vermont did not know what to say. He cautiously asked,” What if he genuinely liked the girl, but she


    didn’t like him back?


    And, because he felt desperate, he told a little white lie so that he would have a chance?”


    “Huh? Why would he deceive her into liking him if he genuinely likes her? How can you trust a man like


    that? I bet he just


    wants to get her into bed with him!”


    Vermont pursed his lips. “…Well, they haven’t had sex yet.”
