Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1751
"Are you listening to what you're saying?" Stella said with a mocking face. "Even if you want to throw yourself to him, you should
consider if that person is interested in you."
Although Stella had also fallen for Keegan at first sight when he saved her, she did not think too much of it at the moment. If it
were not for Albert forcing her into marrying someone else and meeting Keegan, she figured the car accident would probably
have been their only encounter.
Jaylene's expression did not look pleasant. After all, she had been loving Keegan for more than ten years, and it was just
described as one-sided by another person.
She then took a deep breath and said, "Keegan is a person who will be very loyal once he commits to a relationship. He used to
be loyal to you, but now he doesn't even remember you. How can you be so sure he won't be attracted to me?
"On the day he woke up, he actually didn't remember a lot of things, but he recognized me at a glance. When people are at their
most helpless and vulnerable times, they tend to rely on the first person they see after waking up. And it's perfectly normal for
him to be attracted to me after relying on me for such a longtime." 1
Stella scrutinized her expression as she asked, "Are you suggesting he'll fall in love with you?"
Jaylene stopped talking about it. Instead, she smiled and flatly said, "Marshall is still waiting for you downstairs. Won't you go
down and walk him out?"
With that, she turned around and left the room.
Stella frowned while staring at her receding back. She could not help but feel puzzled by her unusual confidence while saying
those words.
After fixing her appearance, she decided to go downstairs to send off Marshall.
Marshall was playing chess with Wenham downstairs. The game was so intense that neither of them noticed that
Stella was there.
She stood there and watched the game for a while. Then, she noticed that Marshall was genuinely good at dealing with people.

Wenham loved playing chess, but his skills were not particularly good. However, he was just like Stella; he loved playing it
despite not being very good at it. At the same time, he had a strong sense of self-esteem.
In simpler words, he would be unhappy if he lost, thinking his skills were not good enough. However, if his opponent let him win,
he would feel even more unhappy, thinking that his opponent looked down on him.
Stella played chess with him twice and then refused to play more. She would always find excuses to turn him down.
On the other hand, Keegan would always let him win. However, his actions could never bring joy to Wenham.
If Keegan deliberately let him win, it would only suggest that his skills were inferior, a notion that Wenham, who valued his
reputation as highly as Stella, found intolerable.
Therefore, he would often express his displeasure with Keegan's actions.
However, Marshall did not deliberately let him win. More precisely, he did so subtly that no one could tell, i
Stella had been observing Keegan's game for years now and noticed that Marshall could get a checkmate several times.
However, he did not make the move, causing the game to end in a draw, i
Wenham was delighted, Marshall, you're just a casual, huh?"
Marshall smiled, "I haven't played for a long time, and I've tried my best."
"But being able to play me to a draw is already good enough. If
Stella was speechless.
'Dad, please stop boasting. Even I'm cringing for you.' She thought to herself.
Marshall then said humbly, "Uncle Wenham, you played so well. Is there any tip you can give me?"
"Oh, it's all about practice. You'll eventually become better once you play more," Wenham said enthusiastically. "But I did study
how to break certain formations."
Marshall replied earnestly, "I'd like to hear the details. I'm very interested in this, too."

Wenham was about to share his knowledge with Marshall, but Stella cut him off, "Dad, Marshall has work to do. Let's not waste
any more of his time."
"Do you have to leave now?" Wenham felt a little reluctant as it was rare for him to find such a worthy opponent. He even wanted
to have another "battle" with him.
Marshall nodded, "There's something I need to take care of in the office."
