Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Jaylene understood the situation perfectly. Even though she didn't particularly like these cold, mechanical devices, she put on a pretense of surprise, saying,

"Really, Keegan?"

Keegan nodded. "Choose one you like."

"Keegan!" Before Stella could finish her sentence, she couldn't hold back her sharp voice, "With your pile of junk that I can't even touch normally, she takes a look and now you want to give it to her? What's the meaning of this?!"

Keegan frowned, apparently not comprehending her current anger at all." Jaylene gave me a gift, and I'm giving her one in return. What's the problem?"

"What problem?" Stella's eyes started to redden. "I can't touch them, so why should she be able to? Have you forgotten, or do you have inappropriate feelings for her?"

Keegan's expression darkened. "This makes no sense!"

Jaylene secretly delighted in this, hypocritically trying to calm things down, "Forget it, Keegan. Since Stella minds so much, I don't want it anymore. You've strained your relationship with her because of me."

Keegan replied coldly, "These things are mine. I can give them to whoever I want. What right does she have to interfere? Pick whichever one you like."

"Keegan, let it go. Stella seems quite upset."

Stella glared angrily at Jaylene. "If you know that I'm unhappy, then just leave!"

Jaylene's eyes immediately reddened. "Keegan..."

Keegan's face darkened, "Stella! This is my home, and you are a guest here. It's not your place to dismiss people!"

Stella stiffened all over, looking incredulously at Keegan. Her eyes were red, tears pooling but not falling as she clenched her fists stubbornly.

"Keegan, say that again."

Her voice was hoarse, with a hint of trembling if one listened closely.

Keegan's breath caught, jaw tightening. He avoided looking at her and turned to Jaylene. "Ignore her, Jaylene, pick one."

Jaylene felt elated inside but appeared very hesitant, "Keegan, don't argue with Stella because of me. I don't want it anymore."

"I'm not arguing with her," Keegan said, eyes lowered. "I promised your mother not to contact you anymore, but because of my uncle and my mother's situation, it indirectly involves you. You still sent me a birthday gift, and I actually feel quite guilty about it. These things bring you joy, and I'm happy about that."

He lifted his eyes to meet Jaylene's, "No matter how valuable these things are, they're just objects for admiration. It's a good thing for them to be taken by someone who appreciates them."

Jaylene's heart soared. Somewhat shyly, she said, "Keegan, I don't really understand, but I just think they're beautiful. Why don't you help me pick one?"

Keegan glanced at the display case, pointing to the third slot in the om second row on the left How about this one? I got it during my college years; it's probably discontinued now."

Stella glanced over, her eyelids twitching. That... if she remembered correctly, it should be a gift model worth hundreds of thousands.

She had thought he was willing to let go, but unexpectedly, he chose a gift model. Though Jaylene was infatuated, she wasn't ignorant; once she investigated, everything would be exposed. NôvelDrama.Org content.

Jaylene's eyes lit up as she reached out to pick it up and examine it, "This one looks really nice, Keegan. Can it be remote-controlled?"

Before Keegan could respond, a cup flew over with a "smack" and landed near Jaylene's feet, startling her. She screamed, the item in her hand. slipped and shattered on the ground, pieces scattering everywhere.

Keegan reacted first, raising his head angrily, "Stella!"

Unafraid, Stella sneered, "If I can't touch them, then no one else can either. She picks one, I smash one. Try me if you don't believe it!"
