Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1826
Felicity hesitated before finally voicing her concern, "But what if Keegan falls for Jaylene during this time?"
Her question amused Vermont. He answered, "Baby, Jaylene and Keegan go way back. They're childhood friends. If Keegan
had feelings for her, he wouldn't have gotten together with Stella. I will personally show Jaylene the way out if Keegan ever
betrays your best friend."
Vermont's response left Felicity surprised. He certainly had a way with words.
Despite Felicity's initial resentment, she somewhat agreed with Vermont after his persuasive spiel. Finally, she pressed her lips
together and said after a while, "If you don't follow through—"
"I'll never be able to have children," Vermont interjected, completing the latter half of her sentence.
Felicity’s anger toward him dissipated.
Vermont took her hand and said, "Let's go. It's time to see why Keegan is hanging out with Jaylene."
Jaylene handed Keegan a glass of wine, "Keegan, try this. It's a special selection from a winery abroad. It tastes exceptionally
good."
Keegan took the glass and gently swirled it around. The sweet fragrance of the red wine wafted out gradually."
Smells good," he complimented.
Holding her wine glass, Jaylene smiled and clinked it against his, "Give it a taste."
Keegan lowered his eyes, holding the glass as if he was about to take a sip. Just then, Vermont's voice came from nearby, "Ms.
Saun, Keegan, what a coincidence."
Jaylene turned around and saw Vermont with Felicity by his side. They were standing a short distance away, smiling.
Vermont glanced at the red wine next to Jaylene and said," If I remember correctly, the aroma of this wine is one of Caline's
blends. It was even showcased at a famous wine auction."
Jaylene smiled faintly, "You're so well-informed, Mr. Snyder."

Vermont shrugged, "It's all useless knowledge." He paused momentarily and added, "Could this be your creation, Ms. Saun?"
"I'm not that talented, just fortunate enough to be involved," Jaylene appeared modest, but the slight raise of her chin and her
hand resting together revealed a hint of superiority.
Felicity felt a sense of disdain. She lifted her eyes only to catch Keegan discreetly pouring the red wine from his glass into the
dark-colored napkin beside him. He then raised the glass and took a small sip, saying, "The wine tastes excellent."
Felicity was puzzled. She had only seen Stella do this to avoid drinking back in the day.
'What is Keegan up to? Why did he pretend that he drank it?'
Her mind filled with questions. But she could only puff up her cheeks and observe the situation from the sidelines.
Seeing Keegan finish, Jaylene was delighted and poured another glass of white wine for him, "Keegan, this one is good too.
Why don't you give it a try?"
