Chapter 1195
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Stella pursed her lips and placed the glass of mango juice on the table.
Spencer swirled the glass of red wine in his hand and suddenly said, âOn the night of our high schoolâs farewell banquet, I asked someone to pass you a message to meet at our usual spot. Why didnât you come?â
âUsual spotâ¦â
Keeganâs grip on the wine glass tightened as he shot Stella a cold glance.
Stella kept quiet. She knew that it was a tricky question.
âThereâs no why. I just didnât want to go. Iâve told you everything I needed to tell you, and there was no point for us to pester each other anymore.â
Spencer lowered his gaze. âI waited for you the whole day that day.â
Before Stella could say anything, Keegan interrupted coldly,â You shouldâve known what would happen that night. Who are you trying to blame now?â
âHow dare he act pitiful here. I knew her ex-boyfriend isnât someone decent!â
Spencer was speechless.
âMr. Kane, this is just between me and Stella,â Spencer said, implying that Keegan should not get himself involved.
However, Keegan did not seem to get it as he continued to speak. âDidnât Stella tell you that sheâs signed with my company? Not only that I have the right to interfere with her affair, but I can also get rid of anyone who might cause rumors around her.â
Spencer frowned. âIsnât she with Elegant Media? Mr. Kane, I donât remember you owning Elegant Media.â
Keegan swept his gaze across him. âThe good thing about running a conglomerate is having a stake in various industries. Mr. Graham, do you not know I also have shares in the movie theater operated by your family?â
In other words, Keegan was telling Spencer that he was simply rich.
Stella tried to hold back her laughter.
Showing off was not something that Keegan would normally do; that was usually her doing.
He was born and raised in a prestigious family, so he always had a different perspective on money.
From his habit of spending money on herself, his mother, and his sister without blinking an eye, Stella could tell that he was the type of person who did not love money and had absolutely no interest in it either.
He never desired to compare his wealth with other people, and he rather focused on his capability and mental strength.
This was Stellaâs first time seeing him flaunting his wealth to other people, and it was out of jealousy.
However, she knew very well that the only reason why Keegan did not claim to be her boyfriend was because he had a mission to carry out. Otherwise, with how possessive he was, he would not need to flaunt his wealth like that.
Keegan only restrained himself to ensure her plan could go well. A man who could set his priorities right like him was simply irresistible.
Spencer was clearly taken aback by what Keegan said.
However, he quickly recovered from it and chuckled softly.â Weâre just two friends chatting. Thereâs no need to get so nervous, Mr. Kane.â
Keegan swept his gaze across him without saying anything.
Spencer then shifted his gaze to Stella. âThereâs a class reunion in a few days. Do you want to join us?â
âIâm sorry, but I donât have the time to,â Stella replied coldly.
Spencer smiled, unclear whether it was out of anger or not. He turned around and was about to walk away but suddenly stopped. Then, he turned back to Stella and said, âIâll be staying in Rivera from now on. Youâre going to fulfill your promise now, right?â
