Chapter 371
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
âBam!â William suddenly tapped the table.
Everyone was frightened, âMr. William, whatâre you doing?â
William tapped his leg as he said, âI remember now! I thought he was familiar. That Mr. Kane is the Mr.
Kane from the Vinci Rivera Group. I was there that day when the agreement of the library was signed. I glanced at them from afar. He was the one who signed the agreement.â
Everyone was shocked!
âNo wonder Mr. Harrison slipped this time. He buttered up the wrong person. The other party has a stronger background.
âCome to think of the married coupleâs vibe, all of this suddenly feels strange but justifiable. âFinally, there are people who can control the mother and son of the Chapman family.â
Stella was extremely happy after solving the serious matter. She was humming along the way. Julian still felt a little unreal, âThis issue was resolved so easily. Not to mention that we didnât have to compensate them. We even received some money for medical expenses.â
He took a look at Stella. He then glanced at Keegan. He hesitantly asked, âStella, why was Raymondâs father so afraid of you two?â
Stella glanced at him, âDid you forget?â
Julian was confused.
Stella kept a straight face as she said, âMy husband has a black belt in Taekwondo, tenth Dan in Jiu-
Jitsu, and a kickboxing champion. How can they not be afraid?â
Julianâs lips twitched, âI shouldnât have asked her!â
Stella put her hand around Julianâs shoulders. She smiled as she said, âLetâs go. I asked for a half dayâs leave from Ms. Ada. Letâs go and buy some presents for Ms. Cooke, Tevin, and the others, and visit them later.â
Kids did not have to know about the dirty business in the adult world. She then turned her head to say to Keegan, âTake a taxi home on your own. Iâll visit the welfare center.â
Keeganâs forehead twitched, âSheâs getting rid of me as soon as Iâve done my part?â
Stella had already grabbed Julia and walked away.
Keeganâs phone vibrated twice. He then took out his phone and answered the call, âMr. Kane, your flight is booked. We probably need to go there a few days earlier. We have to run the entire testing once more to make sure nothing goes wrong.â
âGot it.â Keegan stared at Stellaâs back as he faintly said, âYou help arrange everything. I must be back before the birthday party.â
âOkay.â
At the shopping mall, Stella swung the sneakers in her hand, âWhat about these?â
Julian stiffly stood inside the shop. His shabby shoes were reflected on the spotlessly clean ceiling. It constantly reminded him that he was incompatible with this luxurious store.
The shop assistant immediately walked forward, âMiss, you have such good taste. This pair of sneakers is the latest model in our store. It has very good customer feedback. The shoes are very light.
Itâs very comfortable when you run or jump wearing it. Handsome, whatâs your size? Let me take a pair of them for you to try.â
Julian pursed his lips. He softly said, âI donât want to try.â
âWhy donât you want to try? Iâm not buying the sneakers for you.â Stella then turned her head to say to the shop assistant, âGet me a pair of size eleven and a half.â
Julian coyly removed his shoes. There was a small hole on his left sock. His toe was awkwardly exposed.
âYour socks are quite unique,â Stella smiled as she teased him. She then twisted her head to ask the shop assistant for new socks.
The shoes were exactly like what the shop assistant said. They were very comfortable. This was the first time Julian wore such light sneakers. He looked surprised and happy.
Stella asked the shop assistant, âHow much is it?â
âThereâs a five percent discount for new products. Iâll calculate the price for you.â She pressed the calculator as she said that. She raised her head and said, âItâs three thousand one hundred and sixteen dollars after the discount.â
Before Stella could speak, Julian blurted out, âSo expensive?â
He regretted saying it. âThis shop is nicely decorated. How can the sneakers be cheap? Itâs like I entered a world in which I do not belong. Iâm not used to everything here.â
