Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 116
Chapter 116
Xianna was infuriated. "Which eyes of yours saw that I was introduced by her?"
"Weren't you the one who said to gift this jewelry to Mrs. Kane? You wouldn't be here if you were not acquainted, right?"
That one reply was enough to turn Xianna speechless. She pointed at the crowd, gritted her teeth, and said, "What a horrible shop this is. I'm going to expose you to the media!"
She then stared at Stella and hatefully said, "Just you wait, Stella!"
Stella held the check between her fingers, waved at her smilingly, and said, "Until we meet again."
Sophia silently cursed Xianna for being an idiot. As she was about to stand up for Xianna, she saw that Keegan was at a spot not far away. Her heart sank, and she followed Xianna as they both dejectedly left the jewelry shop.
"Mrs. Kane, would you like to look at the other jewelry?"
The manager politely asked.
The jewelry shop belonged to Vermont, and Keegan had patronized it together with Stella a few times until the manager knew them. Otherwise, they would not be able to stage the act together so cooperatively
When all was said and done, she was only using Keegan's name to act all high and mighty.
"Please wrap up that small leaf engraved rosewood bracelet for me. I'm gifting it to someone."
"Alright, please wait a moment."
"Who is this for?"
Keegan's voice suddenly came from beside Stella's ear and freaked her out. She rubbed her ears as she impolitely replied, "It's for your grandmother." Keegan remained silent.
Stella, realizing that her answer was a little aggressive, coughed and added, "Of course, I'm giving this to grandma."
"You've earned more than ninety thousand dollars' worth of commission, yet you're only giving grandma something worth around ten thousand?"
'He actually knew everything that has transpired just now.
'Asshole,' Stella thought.
"So what if it's ten thousand? I still bought it with my own ten thousand dollars without reaching out to you for money. Besides, grandma is not as calculative as you are." Keegan took a glance at Stella. "Aren't you the one being calculative here?"
"I don't want to be calculative, but what else can you provide for me apart from money? Children? You don't want it. Marriage... Forget it. You don't care about it anyway," said Stella as she took the bracelet that was just wrapped up and headed outside. "I'm better off having
money. At least money can give me a sense of security."
Keegan, feeling heart-stricken, said, "Will having children give you a sense of security? Stella, if we can't even be sure that our marriage will last, don't you think that having a child will just be a burden?" 'If that's the case, isn't his child with Bella a burden as well?' Stella thought.
Stella could not help but ask herself, yet she could not broach the subject. After all, something left unsaid would create less embarrassment for oneself.
After being deep in thought, she cooled down and said, "You're right. A child will only be a burden. I'm lucky I'm not pregnant. That way, there's nothing to tie us down after the divorce, and I won't have to see you again."
Before leaving with big strides, Keegan pulled a long face and irritably said, "Glad you understand."
Stella was puzzled.
'Why is Keegan acting like a madman nowadays and getting angry for no reason at all?'
Keegan's pace was very fast. He was still fuming, especially after hearing Stella say, "I won't have to see you again." His anger and frustration from then were akin to a rock pressing on his heart.
"The word "divorce" is like her catchphrase as if this marriage is not important to her at all. 'She's always pestering me whenever she pleases, yet she sees me as an eyesore when she's not in the mood. 'Vermont is right; a wife shouldn't be too young. They have no patience at all.'
His sleeve was suddenly tugged at.
Keegan halted and stopped in his tracks. "What now? Are you biting your own words now?"
