Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 2051

Chapter 2051

After the crowd dispersed, Aubrey led Stella upstairs to her office.

Reflecting on her situation, Stella considered, 'Darcie is sneakier than Jaylene. Darcie would plant traps in unexpected places but wouldn't openly make things hard for her target. Like this office, it rivals Keegan's office in quality. It's spacious and brightly lit.

"Ms. Hall, this is your office. We've prepared an office for your assistant and the secretarial team next door. If you need anything, they're just a call away," Aubrey explained.

Surveying the space, Stella inquired, "And where is Darcie's office?"

"It's one floor up from here," Aubrey answered.

Stella dismissed Aubrey with a wave. "Okay, you may leave now. I'll explore the area myself.'

After Aubrey had left, Stella turned to Xavier and requested, "Xavier, could you get me a boba tea? Choose any flavor, just ask for less sugar."

Xavier nodded and left the office.

Once alone, Stella swiftly locked the door and retrieved a bug-detecting device from her bag, a gift from

Keegan, to search the office for any hidden surveillance.

Keegan had informed her that the detector would buzz upon detecting any eavesdropping tools. She diligently examined the office but initially found nothing, leading her to wonder if they were being overly cautious.

After wandering around without discovering anything, Stella placed the detector on the coffee table, whereupon the detector immediately buzzed. She paused, then traced the buzzing to a plant pot. Stella found a cling film-wrapped item under the moss in the pot. She smirked, re-covered it, and texted

Keegan: [You were right. Found a bug in a plant pot.]

Keegan responded promptly: [Leave it.]

Stella replied: [I've not touched it. Is Darcie being too cautious? Did she feel threatened by a newcomer like me after decades in this field?]

[It may not be her doing.] Keegan suggested.

This made Stella pause, contemplating, 'If not Darcie, could it be Jaylene? After all, Jaylene lives in

Royalpark Villa and uses hypnosis to get Keegan's attention. Even if Keegan says he can't remember anything, wouldn't Jaylene still worry a bit?'

With determination, Stella messaged: [Send Jaylene a coffee.]

Keegan objected: (Absolutely not.]

Stella responded with a playful gif. [Is that a request for a divorce?]

Keegan, frustrated, thought, 'Stella knows how to push my buttons. If I ordered the coffee, it might help her now, but she'd surely hold it over me in any future disputes. She was utterly unreasonable!'
