Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 1680

Chapter 1680

Felicity had mixed feelings after hearing Vermont's words." While it may not have been your intention to manipulate my emotions, did it ever occur to you that using a fake illness to garner sympathy meant that my feelings for you were driven by pity and guilt? You say you were just giving me more time to get to know you. But, wasn't it an attempt to sever any potential connection between me and Dr. Steven? Doesn' that fall under the category of deception, Vermont?"

Vermont's face turned pale. "Well, it's true I didn't want you to be with Corbin. He's not right for you."

"And, you are? You went to great lengths just because you liked me. You allowed me to walk into your trap like a fool willingly. What happens when you stop liking me? Do you treat me the same as how you treated your ex-girlfriends? Are you going to give me a house or a car in hopes that it'll get rid of me?"

Vermont's heart ached. He felt as though he had wasted the past half a year pouring his heart and soul into a lost cause." Is that really how you see me?"

Felicity looked bewildered. "I can't figure out what qualities I have that would make you go through all this trouble. I'm average in looks and physique, and I'm barely scraping by financially. The only noteworthy thing I have is my mother who spent half her life accumulating a generous dowry for me. But, you're not short of money. The only thing I can think

of is that I'm simple-minded, clumsy, and amusing. I bet you found pleasure in fooling around with me."

When she finished speaking, her phone rang. She answered the call and a male voice on the other end said, "I'm downstairs. Do you need help with moving anything?"

"No, I'll be down in a moment."Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates...

Felicity hung up the phone and was about to get up when Vermont suddenly grabbed her wrist. "Are you leaving?" he asked.

Felicity lowered her eyes. "This is your home. I can't think clearly if I'm—"

Before she could finish her sentence, Vermont suddenly grabbed the back of her neck and kissed her.

The kiss was more passionate than usual. It reminded

Felicity of the night at the police station when Vermont was somewhat intoxicated. He had kissed her like this, using his skills to manipulate her emotions and trying to please her.

Felicity was a novice in the dating world. She quickly found herself defenseless against the kiss. However, in a whirlwind of sensation, their positions swapped.

Felicity began kissing him gently and proceeded to deepen the kiss. She alternated between the two, and the kisses finally turned into a series of pecks. All of a sudden, her body stiffened from feeling Vermont's growing member against her.

Sensing her tension, Vermont stopped kissing her lips. He

then lowered his head and pecked her nose. In a husky voice, he said, "You're not silly or clumsy. You've just never touched my body, so you never caught me getting hard. No matter how much I try to hide it, my body has a mind of its own.

"You have many great qualities. You know how to cook and write scripts. You stand up for your friends, and you're easy to coax when you're angry. Not to mention, you have a big heart. Miss Bandit, your looks are the least important thing to me. Your personality is what makes you attractive.

"You can be mad at me for deceiving you, but don't question your self-worth. And, you don't have to leave. At least not tonight. It's not safe for a girl to go out at night. I'll stay somewhere else. We can have a proper chat tomorrow, or whenever you feel like it, okay?"

Felicity kept her eyes down and remained silent.

Vermont instinctively raised his hand to pat her head, but Felicity dodged his touch. This broke Vermont's heart. He withdrew his hand with a sense of desolation, as he was shocked by her action. After some time, he said, "I'll go grab some clothes and leave."
