Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Chapter 2352

Her fingertips trembled with a mix of horror and excitement. Just as the teapot was about to slip from her grasp, Keegan suddenly said, "Jaylene, don't move."

Jaylene froze, instinctively thinking Keegan had regained his memory. She had barely twitched when Keegan loudly stopped her again, "Don't move, absolutely don't move."

Jaylene wanted to say something, but then felt an itching sensation on her neck, as if something was crawling slowly. Goosebumps erupted all over her body.

By now, Stella had turned around and saw Jaylene standing stiffly with the teapot in hand. Her eyes quickly assessed the situation and then she noticed the beetle crawling on Jaylene's neck.

It was an unknown species, not overly tentacled but as long as a little finger, its mouthparts slightly twitching, genuinely alarming in appearance.

Stella murmured, "It's so big."

Jaylene couldn't see what was on her neck, unsure if it would bite or if it was venomous. She stood frozen in place, her voice trembling, "Keegan, what exactly is it? Please get it away, don't scare me."

Keegan reassured her, "Don't speak, don't startle it. I'll come over slowly and help you get rid of it."

Jaylene muttered an "Okay" and dared not make a sound.

Keegan moved slowly, incredibly slowly-step by step, shuffling as if he had a leg problem.

Stella nearly burst out laughing; his acting was too fake. Thankfully, Jaylene had her head covered, or she would have definitely seen through it.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

After a distance of seven to eight meters, Keegan took two minutes to walk over.

Though not long, every second was agonizing for someone facing an unknown fear.

Finally behind Jaylene, Keegan hesitated, not making a move.

Unable to wait any longer, Jaylene choked up, urging, "Keegan, please get rid of it quickly, I'm scared."

Keegan looked uneasy, "I've never seen such a big bug before, I'm scared too. Let me think of a way."

Jaylene was speechless.

Jaylene was close to tears. It was the first time she felt the man she admired was so spineless, afraid even of a bug.

"Keegan, don't tease me. I'm really scared of bugs. Please get rid of it quickly."

Keegan said, "Jaylene, don't move. It might crawl into your clothes."

Jaylene's back stiffened, the hand holding the teapot trembling uncontrollably. Drops of water splashed on the back of her hand, stinging painfully, her eyes turning red.

Sipping her coffee casually, Stella remarked, "Is it a locust? Or a dung beetle? I've never seen such a big bug in all my life."

The more she spoke, the more Jaylene shivered. Stella knew Jaylene was as afraid of bugs as she was, even more so. Once, while living at the Saun's house, a moth flew into Jaylene's room, and she screamed so loudly it almost attracted wolves.

Now faced with an unknown bug that might or might not bite, Jaylene had every reason to be terrified.

Stella couldn't help but wonder, though-Jaylene had driven all the way here, where did she pick up such a huge bug?

Suddenly, she recalled how Coco had affectionately hugged Jaylene earlier. Did she...?

She looked up towards the second-floor railing, where a piece of cloth quickly disappeared.

Stella was struck speechless.

There was no escaping it now; it had to be her.

A little girl as small as a matchstick, actually had the courage to catch catch such a big bug. Stely would definitely have to educate her not to catch bugs outside; what if she caught a poisonous one?

It was fine on Jaylene, but she couldn't take it to scare other kids.

Keegan wasn't one to play tricks, but today he seemed unusually human, consoling Jaylene there for over ten minutes without making a move to help her.

From Jaylene's angle, Keegan's eyes were ice-cold.

Stella probably guessed why.

With the teapot so blatantly pointed, she couldn't pretend she was oblivious.
