Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1662
Stella disregarded Jackson and attempted to walk around him. However, he promptly positioned himself in her path. “ Your
loyalty to my cousin is truly admirable, Ms. Hall. Who knew you would put everything on the line just to shield his team? Let me
remind you that he's already dead. All you're doing is only delaying the inevitable. There's no point in doing this."
"Are you done?" Stella coldly glanced at him. "If you are, step aside."
Jackson chuckled. "Keegan is dead, Stella. Vinci Rivera will eventually be under my father's control. I'm his only son. When he
passes, Vinci Rivera will be mine. I'm not that concerned about a woman's marital history, and our families are compatible. You
should consider marrying me. You'll still get to be the woman of the house in the Kane family."
Jackson was attracted to Stella's looks. The memory of her being intoxicated on her wedding night lingered in his mind.
Previously, he was afraid of Keegan and only dared to harass Stella discreetly. Now, with Keegan out of the picture, he had
nothing to be afraid of. His lustful gaze held no pretense.
Stella found the situation infuriating. But she remained composed and stared at the man before her. Suddenly, she said, "I doubt
your father would agree to that."
Jackson then grabbed her hand. "And, how would you know? Being in-laws with the Saun family would surely make him happy."
Stella pulled her hand from his grasp, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Your father looks like he's in good health. You might have to
wait until he's old and frail before inheriting the company. Why not actively pursue the position now? Winning would grant you the
freedom to marry without needing his approval."
Jackson was momentarily stunned. He had never considered this aspect before.
He sized Stella up and suddenly laughed, Are you trying to create conflict between my father and me?"
Stella chuckled. "If you want to marry me, that's the precondition. Why do you think I chose Keegan? There's no reason for me to
take a chance on a future with you if you're not willing to fight."
Jackson seemed unconvinced. Stella sidestepped him and walked away, showing no interest in continuing the conversation.
Aldor and Stella had initially intended to invite Jasper for dinner, but he was busy with work at Semiconductor Technology
following Keegan's accident. He politely declined the invitation and briefly asked about Keegan before leaving.

Both Stella and Aldor were taken aback by his inquiry.
Meanwhile, Jasper got his answer from their silence. He did not know how to offer any consolation, so he exchanged brief
pleasantries and left.
Aldor looked at Stella and asked her the question that was lingering in his mind. "Mrs. Kane, how did you find Mr.
Kane's experimental data?"
Aldor was well aware of the progress made by the research and development team. The circle of people privy to this information
was limited. Keegan held all the data, and these crucial details became untraceable with his disappearance.
Aldor considered using the data against the board, but he did not know where Keegan had stored it. He then talked to Stella
about it without expecting much outcome. However, he could not believe that Stella had found it.
Stella lowered her gaze and said, "He put it in the box of our engagement ring." She had only discovered it when she was putting
the ring away.
This left Aldor stunned. 'Only someone as love-struck as Mr. Kane would do something like this. But it was certainly a secure
spot. No one would have thought that such crucial information would be stored in an engagement ring box.'
Stella exited Vinci Rivera and stood by the roadside while she called Felicity.
When a white sedan passed by, Stella met a pair of familiar eyes through the windows. Upon seeing that, her heart tightened
abruptly. 3
