Chapter 956
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Keegan paused. âWho did you say found a girlfriend?â âMarshall. Marshall Moore,â Carter said, âYouâre so close with him. How could you not know?â
Keegan pursed his lips.
Vermont arranged a dinner together previously, and Keegan went there. But, Marshall did not show up because he said he had work to do. Then, they had not met each other since then.
Keegan thought about it and realized that it had been some time since he last saw him.
âMarshall has a girlfriend now? Itâs impossible for Vermont not to tell me that if thatâs true.â
Keegan felt strange as he asked, âDo you know which wealthy family sheâs from?â
Carter paused and said slowly, âI didnât ask that much. She looked unfamiliar, so sheâs probably not from a family that we know. Sheâs very elegant, and sheâs a music teacher.â
Keegan tried to think of a person who matched the description but to no avail.
He did not believe that Marshall would date a girl from an ordinary family as his family would never allow that to happen.
However, Keegan stopped asking and said, âThatâs good news, then.â
Carter could not help but laugh.
Keegan was puzzled. âWhatâs so funny?â
âItâs nothing. Lenaâs joking with me.â
Lena glared at him as if her eyes were saying, âHow rude of you.â
Carter wrapped his arm around her waist and gently pinched her as he said to the phone, âHurry up.
The wedding is about to start.â
âOkay,â Keegan responded and hung up the phone.
He looked at his phone and saw a few missed calls from Stella.
He tried to call her back, but her phone was unreachable.
There was a WhatsApp text from Stella, telling him to rest well.
Keegan replied, [Iâll talk to you tonight.] Then, he put his phone away and left the airport.
Stella had just switched off her phone and gave it to the staff at the entrance to keep it.
Marshall said that nobody was allowed to take any pictures at the wedding ceremony due to the identity of Duncanâs newlywed wife. So, every guest had to switch off their phones and give them to the staff before entering the venue.
The staff would immediately seal the phone in a bag and let the phone owners personally write their names on the sealed bag. That way, their privacy would not be compromised.
This was Stellaâs first time going to a wedding ceremony with such strict rules. She could not contain her curiosity as she asked Marshall, âWho exactly is this bride?â
Marshall smiled. âSheâs not someone particularly important, just the daughter of a government official.â
Stella was shocked. âIs that not important enough?â
Marshall smiled again. âI mean, my grandfather used to be a deputy minister.â
Stella was speechless.
âNo wonder he said that.â
Marshall did not tell Stella that even his father had been promoted to the head of the central administration department. That was also the reason why he did not think that an officer of a division would be someone important.
That was when Stella realized that Marshall was actually a very powerful friend to have.
Not only that he was outstanding himself, but he also came from a very powerful family.
However, that kind of power kind of scared her.
âI think the real reason taking pictures isnât allowed is because the bride doesnât want anyone to post any unedited pictures of her online. Sheâs pregnant and gained a little weight. After all, every girl wants to look perfect at her wedding, right?â
