Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1214
Although everyone was holding up their phones, the dim light made it hard to see clearly in the darkness. Vermont skillfully
blended into the crowd with Felicity alongside him.
It was the weekend, and the people in Greenwood Grove were supposed to be having a relaxing evening. However, they could
not binge-watch their favorite shows or play any video games due to the power outage. The residents were annoyed and
gathered in front of their homes to engage in lively chatter.
Vermont whispered a few words in Felicity's ear, and she immediately said, "Hugo, why are you out here?"
As soon as she finished speaking, another female voice said, "Hugo! Who said you could come out? Where are you, you
rascal?"
Vermont grabbed Felicity's hand and led her toward the source of the voice. The woman continued calling Hugo's name,
searching outside and inside the building until she finally found him in one of the rooms.
Infuriated, she scolded the child for not listening to her and wandering around.
After giving the child a piece of her mind, the woman stormed out of the room and slammed the door behind her. Vermont seized
the opportunity to enter the room, picked Hugo up, and walked out of the kindergarten with Felicity.
Felicity's heart was pounding as they slipped through the crowd. Though, Hugo remained calm in Vermont's arms, seemingly
unfazed by the commotion around him. No one paid them any attention. With that, Vermont and Felicity succeeded in taking the
child away.
After entering their car, Vermont dialed 911. “Hello? I found a child on the side of the road."
Felicity was baffled. 'Isn't he afraid that the kid would blow his cover if he gets questioned?' she thought. However, she was
overthinking things.
Hugo was autistic, which meant he had difficulty concentrating on his surroundings. He was often immersed in his own world.
So, they managed to take the child to the police station without arousing any suspicion and were even praised by the authorities.
Felicity felt bothered by the situation, but Vermont was not. "We’re just doing our jobs as good citizens. I'm sure anyone would do
the same if they saw a kid alone on the road," he said.

His words left Felicity speechless. 'I guess I'm not as shameless as I thought,' she said to herself.
Knowing Hugo would likely wander off at times, the Jewell family placed their contact information in his pockets in case anyone
found him. So, the police were able to make a phone call to Albert. Once they confirmed Hugo's identity, they allowed Albert to
pick him up from the station.
Initially, the police on duty wanted to take a photo of the incident and post it on their social media pages. However, when he
looked up, he realized the two helpful citizens had already left.
While they were on their way back. Felicity empathized with the child. "I feel sorry for Hugo," she said.
"For having autism or for having parents like Albert and Hylda? Though there's no exact cure for autism, there are still a lot of
ways to help improve his situation. But I don't think his parents really care that much. They should enroll him in a special
education program that can accommodate his needs," said Vermont.
However, Felicity could not help but feel bad that they had to involve Hugo in their affairs. Vermont noticed this and gently patted
her head. "Don't worry. It's not your fault. I'm the one who carried out the plan."
Felicity felt better upon hearing that and pushed away his hand. "Hands on the wheel," she said.
After a whole night's worth of turmoil, Stella woke up the next day around noon. When she opened her eyes, she recognized the
familiar ceiling above her head and slowly recalled what happened the night before.
Various explicit images flashed across her mind, and she remembered yelling Keegan's name as they had sex.
She rolled over, wanting to bury herself under the covers, only to find Keegan lying next to her on his side with his head propped
up. Keegan smiled as their eyes met and said, "You're up."
