Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 143
Chapter 143
Stella could not help but feel disappointed. "Why didn't you say you were a voice actor during the audition?" Daniel asked. Stella shook her head and said, "Because there was simply no need to mention it. No matter how far I've made it in the voice acting industry, I'm still a rookie in acting."
'Plus, such experience may not benefit my career as an actor. On the contrary, it may even hinder my future development in the field since my previous achievements may overtake my current,' Stella thought. Daniel stared at her for a while, wondering what she was thinking. Then, after a long time, he said, "Let's keep in contact. What's your number?" Stella was taken aback when she heard that. "I have to give Robin something for introducing you to me," Daniel said lightly. Stella stayed quiet.
'There was no need to make it so obvious...' she thought. Daniel had asked for her number but did not give her his. Clearly, it was going to be a one-way contact. The only reason he wanted her number was to deal with Robin.
After dinner was over, Stella went back to the Kane residence. Although she remained calm on the surface when Daniel told her that the role had been given to someone else, she was devastated. Stella used to fantasize about achieving great heights in her career after her divorce and slapping Keegan right in the face. However, now that she thought about it, it was a stupid dream.
'How big does an actor have to get to be considered successful? Till they're on the big screen? I can't even secure a small role right now.' For a woman who got married as soon as she graduated, things were not as easy as she imagined. The competition in the acting industry was fierce. It did not matter if they cheated their way up to the top; all that mattered was that they reached it. Keegan had kept Stella in captivity for a long time, which caused her to be simple-minded. Hence, she did not expect someone else to take her role.
"Madam, it's time to take your medicine," Maya interrupted. Stella could already detect the familiar smell of the decoction without turning to look at her. Maya put the medicine bowl on the table and opened a pack of maple candy on the side. "Mrs. Kane sent over a box of maple candies. They're very sweet and can help counter the bitterness," she said.
Stella sighed in response. It was always a battle to take her medication. When she thought of what Dahlia had said in the hospital earlier, she decided to down the decoction. Maya was surprised. 'Eww,' Stella said to herself. She put the bowl down and drank a few sips of water to subside the bad taste. "I'm going to take my medicine on time now, Maya. You don't have to report every detail to Mrs. Kane anymore."
The expression on Maya's face changed. "I don't know what you mean, Madam."
Stella glanced at her and said, "Didn't my mother-in-law ask you to come and take care of us because she wanted to ensure that I took my medication on time? I assure you I'll do precisely
that. As for other things, such as Keegan and I arguing or even having sex, there's no need for you to report them back to her. These matters are between my husband and me. I don't care if you were sent here by my mother-in-law. This is an invasion of privacy. What's more, your current salary is given by the Vinci Rivera Group. You should know that my husband has the final say. Remember who you're working for. If you can't carry out such a simple task, I wouldn't mind asking my husband to hire a new housemaid."
Maya's face turned ugly. "Mrs. Kane sent me here to do her bidding. You have no right to do so, Madam."
Stella smiled and said lightly, "There are ten thousand ways for me to get rid of you, Maya. It's just that I rather us not go through it. All my mother-in-law would do is stay mad at me for a couple of days. But you? Six types of insurance, one housing fund, a high salary, and flexible leaves. Where will you be able to replace a job that has such a huge payout in Rivera at this age, huh? I heard your husband was laid off a while ago, and your son just went to college. So... I'm guessing this job must be very important to you right now."
