Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Chapter 2353

The standoff lasted for over twenty minutes before Keegan grabbed a book and knocked the beetle off Jaylene's neck. The beetle fluttered twice and suddenly flew up, landing on Jaylene's face. Jaylene screamed, rolled her eyes, and fainted.

As she collapsed, the bug flew off again.

"Jaylene?"

Keegan called out to her.

He looked up at Stella and said, "You go start the car, I'll carry her to the hospital."

As he spoke, he signaled to Stella.

She understood and coldly grunted, "So troublesome."

Walking over to Jaylene, she squatted down beside her and slapped her face twice.

Jaylene immediately opened her eyes and reached out to push her away." What are you doing!"

Stella was prepared and had already moved back before she could be pushed.

She shook her tingling hand and innocently said, "Jaylene, you fainted because of the bug. I was just saving you. Don't believe me? Ask Keegan."

Jaylene nearly ground her teeth. Did she think she hadn't heard? She was intentionally exposing her private revenge!

Keegan frowned disapprovingly. "Just press her acupoint; why hit her?"

It sounded like he was defending Jaylene. Jaylene felt a hint of triumph, cleverly saying, "I misunderstood Stella. I thought she was still blaming me for saving you back then." With one sentence, she pointed out Stella's "immaturity" and reminded Keegan of her debt of gratitude.

Keegan glanced at Stella with a hint of blame in his eyes.

Stella's face darkened, perhaps afraid that her actions would further alienate Keegan. She gritted her teeth and held back from saying anything, only grunting. Keegan ignored her, bowing his head to ask Jaylene,' How are you? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"I'm fine, just a scare." Thinking of the huge bug just now, Jaylene still felt a lingering fear.

Keegan reached out. "Get up."

Jaylene was stunned, joyfully extending her hand and then looking at Stella, a hint of triumph in her eyes.

Stella's face turned cold, slamming the coffee cup heavily onto the table.

Jaylene sat on the sofa, took a moment to compose herself, and casually remarked, "Keegan, why don't you use those cups on the table? They look quite nice." It had begun.

Keegan glanced up briefly, saying lightly, "They're not mine, I don't like them. It

Jaylene responded with an "Oh," her lips curled. It seemed she had misunderstood.

Maybe anticipating her arrival, those cups were deliberately placed there to maintain the illusion that Keegan still liked her.

Jaylene noticed a display case with models inside and turned to askm Keegan Keegan, can I take a look at that?"

Keegan nodded, "Of course."

Jaylene got up and walked over to the display case, which contained some of Keegan's mechanical models. Each one was covered with a glass dome, obviously meticulously cared for by the owner.

"So impressive," Jaylene exclaimed as she looked around, "It's my first time seeing such beautiful models. Keegan, where did you buy them?" Keegan replied, "I made them myself."Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

"Wow, you're so talented to make them so exquisitely."

Keegan smiled, seeming pleased. "If you like them, pick one as a gift."

Stella suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with disbelief.
