Mr. Kane Got cklisted Chapter 1627 [Eleven Jewell]
’Is there any chance he’s still alive?” Felicity’s voice trembled, as she asked.
Vermont didn’t know what to say. Although he was adept atforting others, he did not feel as
optimistic as usual at that moment. The odds of Keegan surviving that night were slim. First, he did not
know howto swim. And, secondly, the conditions of the water were nearly impossible to swim in,
especially while injured.
The body of the man who had plunged off the bridge with Keegan was recvered the next afternoon. Yet,
there was still no news about Keegan. Vermont let out a sigh. “No news might just be good news. Ste
didn’t suffer any severe injuries when she jumped into the water. But she’s been unconscious for a long
time.

Meanwhile, Marshall told us that Keegan was heavily injured. It’s possible that someone saved him, but
he’s still out due to his injuries.”
Felicity’s face turned pale. “What will Ste do when she wakes up?” she asked.
For the past few days, Ste had been in and out of fever. Her family had been constantly taking care of
her. Felicity could not bear to stay in the hospital room
for too long, but she visited at least twice a day. She would witness Ste having nightmares and
mumbling Keegan’s name every time she came over. Felicity found it hard to ept the fact that Keegan
was gone. She understood that it must be an even more painful experience for Ste, who had lost a
lover. “The perpetrator is dead, but what about the other two kidnappers? This happened right before the
election for chairman at Vinci Rivera. There must be a mastermind behind this. Maybe Keegan’s uncle is
the one orchestrating all this!”
Felicity said in frustration.
Vermont’s eyes grew colder. “When the two men were found, they were both severely injured. With the
main culprit dead, they naturally ce all the me on him. We currently have no evidence. There’s
nothing we can do, even if Chandler was the one behind the incident. Plus—” Vermont did not finish his
sentence.
Felicity despised it when people left sentences hanging. So, she asked, “Plus…?
What? Why did you stop? Go on!”
“Plus, even if it really was him, it would be considered an internal family conflict. There’s a chance that
Mrs. Kane Sr. might not pursue the matter any further.” Felicity could not believe her ears. “What do you
mean she might not pursue the matter any further? He’s her grandson!” No matter how close their bond
is, once a person is gone, the focus shifts to the living,” Vermont exined. “We haven’t found Keegan’s
body yet. No one knows if he’s alive or dead. If Mrs. Kane Sr. sends her son to prison, who would take
charge of Vinci Rivera? The only people left to inherit the position are Jackson and Aurora, who, in my
opinion, are useless pieces of shit. With no one to take over, Vinci Rivera will inevitably be handed to
someone else. I’m sure Mrs. Kane Sr. won’t allow a situation like this to ur.”
Moreover, it was very likely that Cordelia was feeling cornered right now. As soon as Keegan was in
trouble, she shut herself in and refused to see anyone. This was most likely because of Quentin’s death.
Cordelia had seen all sorts of storms in her lifetime. She had lost her husband and her eldest son. Even
though she was grieving, there was no reason she would close herself off at such a crucial time.
Vermont could not help but feel sad, as he thought about the death of his best friend. ’With that sharp
tongue of his, why would God want to take him away this early?’
Felicity was deeply distressed. “So, are they going to pretend that nothing happened? The cops have to
investigate and close this case at some point, right? Are they going to stop all operations just because
the Kane family doesn’t want to pursue the matter?”
Vermont fell silent for a moment before he said, “Actually, the police have found something in their
investigation.”
Felicity perked up. “What is it?”
The perpetrator who died, also known as the man you and Ste fought off when rescuing Marshall,
suffered from prosopagnosia.”
