Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 271

The effect of Jurisdiction’s broadcast was beyond expectations. Besides the story’s merit, this was

mainly due to Stella’s interpretation of the character. The producer clearly knew this and naturally wanted

to shoot a sequel to it. The rate still had space for negotiation.

Stella thought about it and said, “I can help you shoot a few more, and I still wouldn’t need any paycheck.

However, I need you to help me do something.”

Lena was surprised, “Me?”

Stella nodded and leaned in to whisper two sentences into her ears. Then, she asked, “Is that okay?”

Lena looked at her thoughtfully. After a long while, she said, “Sure.”

A breeze flowed through. A waft of soft fragrance rushed to their noses.

Lena furrowed her brows. “This floral fragrance is odd.”

“It’s devil’s snare.” Stella gave the few stalks of flowers on the balcony a look. She said quietly, “It’s not

good if you inhale too much.”

‘This store is too much. They even put this type of flower on the balcony. They seem to not be afraid that

the guests would ingest it,‘ Stella thought.

“You seem to know a lot about this flower. You knew what it was just from a glance,” Lena noted.

“I planted some at home. Devil’s snare is quite beautiful. It’s just that they’re poisonous, so you need to

be diligent when keeping them,” Stella said as she scrolled through her phone. She tapped open the

picture of her dual–colored devil’s snare that had bloomed.

Lena was utterly amazed. “It’s quite pretty.”

“If you like them, I can gift you a few later.” Both of them chatted while walking back. Just as they

reached the corridor, they heard a voice.

“Carter, are you nuts? What did you mean just now?” It was Molly’s voice. Her tone was slightly angry,

but she tried to suppress her volume.

Carter pushed her hand away and tidied his attire. His expression was laid back. “Ms. Moore, have a

little self–respect. I’m a married man.”

Molly sneered. “Why are you pretending in front of me? Didn’t you marry the coroner just to get back at

me? Why? Did you put too much emotion into your act? You would let me lose face just for her?”

Stella was speechless.

‘What’s this shocking news?‘ Stella thought.

She discreetly glanced at Lena. She had a nonchalant expression, but the hand holding the yogurt

tightened, and her knuckles were white. She could not leave, yet she could not stay, which made it

awkward.

Instead, Carter had a lackadaisical expression and sneered out, “Ms. Moore, you might have

held yourself on too high a pedestal. We’re all grown–ups. If you like each other, you stay. If you don’t

like each other, you break up. What’s there for me to take revenge on you for? It’s just the truth.”

Molly could not believe his words. “The wedding band on her hand. It was the one you used to propose

to me. Aren’t you doing this purposely for me to see?”

Carter’s body froze, and his expression fell. Then, he chuckled, “It’s just a ring. However, I felt it would be

a waste if I threw it away. You sure like to fantasize, Ms. Moore.”

Molly grew frustrated. “It better not be! You better keep your mouth shut tight about our thing in the past.

If my reputation is affected, you won’t get away happy!”

When her sentence ended, they heard a flurry of footsteps from afar. Molly probably left. Stella licked her

lips and wanted to say something to ease the awkwardness. Then she saw Lena just walk ahead.

Carter was still tidying his attire when he saw Lena suddenly appear. He was stunned for a bit, then

naturally walked over to hold her hand.

“Your hand is cold.” He softly rubbed her fingertips. He then put them in his palm to warm them. “Why did

you go to the balcony?”

Lena did not refuse and said softly, “I went to discuss some stuff with Mrs. Kane.”

Carter turned around to give a look, and Stella hid.

Carter gripped Lena’s hand tightly. As they walked, he asked, “What did you talk about?”

“Mrs. Kane showed me the flowers she planted. They were gorgeous.”

“You like them?”

“Mhm.”

“Then, we should plant them.”

“No, your parents wouldn’t like them.”

“Who cares if they like it? As long as you like it.”

Lena thought about it. “Then, I’ll plant one pot of them. I’ll put them on the balcony of the study.”

Carter closed in to peck at her cheek. He then whispered, “As you wish.”

Stella’s emotions were conflicted. If not for the scene she saw just now, the two would be a match made

in heaven. Yet, for some reason, after seeing that scene, the lovey–dovey act tasted like poison and

burned her throat.

She stayed outside for a while and then entered the room. As a result, she discovered that Keegan, the

idiot, had drunk himself into a drunken stupor.

Vermont was not better off, but at least he could still speak normally. It was understandable that the

others were drunk, but was Molly not outside arguing with Carter just now? How did she end up in

Trevor’s arms?

Stella and Vermont used all their strength to put Keegan in the car. The three of them left first. Molly got

into Trevor’s car. Stella initially thought they would have more development in their relationship but did

not expect Trevor to change his ride after the vehicle left not long

after. He got into a Ferrari and got his driver to send Molly home.

Just as he got into the car, he was given a document. A male voice said, “All the information for Mrs.

Kane since birth.”
