Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1234
"Don't you have an important meeting this afternoon?" Stella inquired.
Keegan hesitated for a moment and said, "Then, I'll go with you tomorrow."
"Alright.'
Keegan was surprised at how compliant Stella was today. But then, she continued, 'Do you know where to go for the paperwork?
Do you know the process of these things? Do you have anyone on the inside who could help us? It can be tricky to deal with the
authorities in that department, you know? What if they say something you don’t like? Can you guarantee that you won't lose your
temper there and then?"
With each question Stella raised, Keegan's expression turned grimmer." Are you saying that I'm not as capable as Marshall right
now?" he asked.
"I didn't mean it that way. You're undoubtedly the best in your industry. No one can beat my man at building robots," Stella said
softly.
Keegan was flattered by her praise, especially when she referred to him as her man. However, he did not let those words sway
him. "How can you acknowledge my abilities yet still want his help?"
"Everyone has their own expertise, Keegan. Sure, you excel at making money, but you're not that skilled in handling
interpersonal relationships like Marshall."
Keegan frowned. "What do you mean I'm not as skilled as him?'
"See? I'm just explaining the situation, and you're already getting defensive. You're too stubborn, Keegan. Even though your
research team puts in the most effort and makes the most money in the company, you still can't win people's hearts like Uncle
Chandler."
Keegan was about to refute, but Stella continued, "I know you don't like those who suck up to powerful individuals just to boost
their status and those who only befriend people who agree with them. But, our society is built on personal connections. You cant
always think that way.

"I asked Marshall for help because he's adept at dealing with people. As a lawyer, he knows the ins and outs of interpersonal
relationships and has interacted with all sorts of individuals, especially those in political circles. He also knows how to navigate
conversations with those people, which will make things easier."
Although Keegan was not happy to hear that, he knew what Stella said was true. He might have argued back if Stella compared
both of them in other aspects, but he had to admit that Marshall had far more connections than he did. Getting the land patent
would be a piece of cake for Marshall.
"Is it urgent?" Keegan pursed his lips and asked, believing that he could help Stella obtain the necessary paperwork if he was
given a few days.
"I don't want to drag this on for too long. The kindergarten on that piece of land is generating income for Hylda. I must get the
patent as soon as possible to cut off her financial resources. That way, she and Albert will teareach other apart.’
Keegan fell silent for a moment. "Do as you wish," he said and hung up the phone.
Stella was speechless at how childish he was acting.
After the call ended, Keegan thought about the situation and dialed Felicity's number.
Felicity had been preparing for her new job for the past two days. When she saw Keegan's name come up on the screen of her
phone, she hesitated before picking it up.
"Hey, Ms. Thompson, are you busy at the moment?" Keegan's tone sounded polite, which made Felicity nervous.
"Wh-What's up?"
"The person who bought the script last time said it was good and wants to get another customized copy from you. Are you
available to take it?" Keegan asked.
"Yes!" Felicity blurted out. Suddenly, she remembered that Keegan gave her the first job because he wanted to compensate her
for getting her arrested. 'There's no way this guy is introducing me to another job for no reason,' she thought.
"Why are you suddenly offering me a job? What do you want this time?" Felicity asked with caution.
