Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 2286

Chapter 2286

Estelle paused before speaking, then finally said, "There's been some unpleasantness regarding the contract termination, and the company doesn't want Leighton to leave without consequences."

It was evident that Estelle wasn't being entirely truthful with her. Estelle was smart and cautious. The chances of him confiding in Stella were slim as Leighton was still drunk.

Stella pondered for a moment before saying, "I'll post a clarification on Facebook later. You can reach out to Nicole and have her explain the messy news online too. I'll handle the lawyer coordination from my end. The sooner we address this, the easier it will be to clear things up."

The "affair" scandal surrounding Leighton was fabricated. However, what was true was dragging Leighton into the mud with allegations of "sexual harassment."

Stella felt it wasn't solely the work of Leighton's agency.

If she were Leighton's boss, a top-tier talent she had nurtured, she believed that even if he terminated his contract, his popularity wouldn't vanish overnight. Moreover, Leighton had gotten involved with someone like Nicole, a movie star. No one could predict how far his career might go in the future. There was no need to escalate things to the point of cutting ties forever. In the entertainment industry, there were only permanent interests, no permanent enemies.

This seemed more like someone manipulating things against Leighton.

After ending the call, Stella posted a photo of the three siblings online, blurring out Trevor's eyes.

Caption: "My brother and my cousin don't really look alike, do they? @ Nicole"

In the photo, Stella stood in the middle, with Trevor on the left and Leighton on the right; Noah Hall, Leighton's younger brother, had been cropped out.

Although Trevor's eyes were blurred, the lower half of his face still bore a striking resemblance to Leighton. However, in terms of stature and build, Leighton was taller and more muscular. After all, as an idol, body management was very strict, so Trevor appeared more refined.

As soon as the Facebook post was published, Nicole promptly reposted it, saying, "Not alike at all. Clearly, your cousin is more handsome."

These two Facebook posts quickly gained traction.

Someone commented below, "What's the point of blurring the eyes? The mistress and the legitimate girlfriend are doing a good job collaborating on their public relations."

"The entertainment industry's top opportunist. When something happens, he lets the ladies respond. Is the man himself dead?" "In the paparazzi's photos, doesn't that guy also wear sunglasses? How can you all identify him as Leighton at a glance?" "Isn't the main point here that Stella calls Leighton her cousin? If this were a PR stunt, wouldn't it be more appropriate to call him a friend? Why tell such a lie? If it's false, won't it be exposed with a simple check?"

"Have you ever noticed that Leighton and Stella actually look quite alike? They even share the same last name, Hall."

"Seriously, looking at the three people in the photo, when you cover their eyes, they all seem like the same person. The lower half of their faces look too similar."

As the debate continued, someone released another set of photos online, this time showing Stella and Trevor's faces clearly captured in the lobby of a hotel. This time, there were no blurred faces, and it was immediately obvious that it wasn't Leighton. Stella thought the hotel might have leaked customer information and quickly contacted Trevor.

Trevor said, "I know, I had someone release it. How dare they mess with me and bully that stinky brat on my behalf. I'm being kind to them already!"

Stella had initially blurred Trevor's face to avoid exposing his information unnecessarily and causing any trouble, but since Trevo didn't mind himself, it didn't matter anymore.

She chuckled and said, "Leighton once told me you used to beat him up a lot when you were young. I guess you do care for Leighton after all, huh?"

Trevor snorted, "Care my foot! The brat only remembers me beating him up. How about all the game consoles and cars I bought him? Ungrateful little rascal!"

After a momentary pause, he continued, "I've already contacted his agent. You don't need to worry. Get some rest and take care of yourself."
