Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 194
Chapter 194
Sophia blurted out, “It’s so unfair! What right does Stella have!
“She married into a wealthy family and has the Kanes backing her up. She is useful to the Jewells now. So, of course, your father would take her side,” Hylda replied calmly. “Put more effort into getting a good match. Then, your father would pay more attention to you.”
“No family in Rivera could compare to the Kanes,” Sophia said nonchalantly.
Hylda frowned. “Don’t target the Kanes. The only marriageable option left is Jackson Kane. In all aspects, there is too much of a difference between him and Keegan. Plus, he has a bad reputation. He’s a womanizer, not a good choice for marriage.
Sophia scoffed. “What about Keegan Kane?”
Hylda’s heart sank. “Don’t even think about it. Keegan wouldn’t take any interest in you. Even if he does, he would just fool around with you. He won’t marry you. Do you really want to go through what I’ve been through?”
Sophia pursed her lips and remained silent, but she was unconvinced. ‘If Stella can be his legal wife, why can’t I? Why would I only be someone he toys with?’ she thought.
“A while ago, I asked Mrs. White to scout for potential suitors. She picked out some with great qualifications, and I will arrange for you to meet them once you settle in at work.
Meanwhile, after Keegan teased Stella, the salesperson enthusiastically recommended them some diamond cufflinks.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
Keegan thought that Stella would stingily argue back, but she began to go through the cufflinks carefully instead.
In the end, Stella picked out a pair of quadrate cufflinks embedded with melee diamonds. She lifted Kegan’s sleeve up next to the cufflinks and looked up. “What do you think of this one?”
Keegan looked at Stella’s gleaming eyes and felt a part of his heart sink.
He looked away and nonchalantly said, “It’s acceptable, I guess.”
As Keegan spoke, a man’s voice piped up from beside him. “The cufflinks really go with your look, Mr. Kane. Mrs. Kane has good taste.”
Stella looked up and was surprised to see Carter and Lena.
Keegan did not have many close friends, so even though Stella was not that close to the couple, she was still acquainted with them.
Among Keegan’s friends, Stella has the best impression of Carter.
Of course, the biggest reason Stella took a liking to Carter was because of his twin brother,
Zane.
‘Carter’s wife, Lena, who works in a Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) team, is involved in the forensics department,’ thought Stella. ‘Anyways, she is an impressive individual from a regular family. Unlike me, I married into the Kane family by chance, but her marriage with Carter was out of love.
‘For Carter to go against the pressure his family puts on him and marry Lena, who has a mediocre background, he must be deeply in love with her.’
Carter was around the same height as Keegan. In comparison, Carter’s personality was gentler than Keegan’s. It was not that Carter was as good-natured as Marshall, but Carter was gentle in the way he talked. As for his appearance, he looked as aggressive and dominant as Keegan.
Lena had extremely beautiful features. She looked stern when she was not smiling, more or less due to her profession. She was taller than Stella by a bit above 5.8 feet.
When attending the jewelry exhibition, other women of wealthy families tried their best to wear their prettiest dresses and accessories.
Lena, on the other hand, looked more casual. She had silky, shoulder-length hair and wore a simple white shirt with a pair of black slacks. Her shoes were a pair of white flats, and the only accessory she wore was the wedding ring on her ring finger.
Even though she wore informal attire, she still looked good, thanks to her tall and well- proportioned figure.
“It’s been a while, Mrs. Lowe,” Stella greeted gently.
“Hello,” Lena nodded.
Lena was a quiet person, and she was not close to Stella. After greeting and exchanging pleasantries, Lena stayed silent.
