Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 1571

"Alright. Just keep an eye on him. Don't take any unnecessary risks. Otherwise, the consequences-" The man in the cap abruptly ended the call before the person on the other line could finish. He pulled out another cigarette, lit it, and squinted at Keegan's photo on his phone. The face was blurry, leaving only a faint resemblance.

The person on the other end could not help but curse, "That fucking idiot!" He then dialed another number to report the situation. "Boss, this guy is unpredictable. I'm worried that things might go south." "He can't even remember someone's face. What kind of trouble could he possibly cause? Just keep a close eye on him,"

came the dismissive response.

The man hesitated and spoke in a low voice. "Understood."

Stella did not waste anytime. The next day, she approached Vermont to discuss the possibility of opening a company together.

Vermont was in his office, as he listened to the plan. Stella painted an optimistic picture of their potential collaboration. It was a concept that amused him.

"I..." Vermont began to respond but was interrupted by a cough from Keegan.

He immediately bit his lip and thought, 'Am I being forced into this collaboration? These two are shameless!'

While Vermont was not entirely uninterested in the idea, he admittedly had not paid much attention to his jewelry store with his diverse business interests. The leftover materials from his store were usually sold off at a low price. It was indeed a waste.

Moreover, since the incident with Bella, he had not found a suitable spokesperson for the jewelry store. If he collaborated with Stella and managed to convince Leighton to come on board, it would be a major win.

The influence Leighton had over the masses was something he greatly valued.

Vermont's eyes darted around the room, as he smiled and said, "Let's not rush into this matter, Stella. If I'm not mistaken,

Leighton has an upcoming concert, right? My nephew really likes him. Could you check if he's available these days? I'd like to invite him for a meal. We can discuss it further at the dinner table." Stella's eyebrows raised slightly. She immediately caught on to Vermont's intention. The promises she had made earlier were now being cashed in by Vermont.

Truth be told, Stella was not entirely sure if she could convince Leighton. Despite being her cousin, he was, after all, a high-tier celebrity. His superstar status made her wonder if he would even agree to the request.

As Stella pondered howto respond, Keegan interjected the conversation. "There's no need to discuss the matter further. The new company's revenue will be split 70-30, with Stella getting the larger share. If you can accept that, I'll call Leighton and have him sign the contract."

Stella was shocked to hear that. She quickly grabbed Keegan's hand and whispered, "We haven't even discussed this with Leighton yet. How could you make the decision for him?"

Keegan patted her hand and said, "Don't worry. I'm sure he won't reject the idea."

'That kid would definitely be enthusiastic to do a favor for his cousin, who is his idol.'

And, Keegan had found a top-notch game optimization expert for Leighton. He was not doing all this for nothing.

Vermont's eyelids twitched when he heard that they were splitting the profit 70-30.

"Isn't 70-30 a bit disproportionate? Let's make it 60-40."
