Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 2066
Vermont did not answer Stella's question but looked at her from head to toe. After a moment, he suddenly chuckled and asked,
"Is that a new way to make money?"
Stella nodded and exaggeratedly recounted the short drama market that Felicity had told her about earlier that day.
"It may take long for regular dramas to break even, but not for short dramas. They don't require much investment, and the return
is high. There aren't any strict regulations on short dramas yet, and the possibilities are endless.
"If you don't seize the opportunity now before it's too late, you might never have a chance to get a piece of this big pie."
While feeding Ed, Vermont smiled. "Stella, if it's so profitable, why aren't you venturing into it?"
Stella sighed. "It's not that I don't want to, but look at my belly now."
Vermont seemed to be convinced by Stella's reason. He stroked the cat with his gaze lowered and asked, "It's not a bad idea,
but it's difficult to find a good script nowadays."
Stella said, "Have you forgotten about Felicity? She's an excellent scriptwriter. If you were to hire her, not only would you get to
spend more time with her, but you could also showcase your work abilities.
"Felicity is different from me. She's particularly fond of men who are capable in their work."
Vermont chuckled and said, "That's a pretty good suggestion."
However, Stella did not know if Vermont really agreed with her. She asked,"

So, what do you think?"
Vermont answered, "Stella, you can film whatever short dramas you want. I'll invest in it, but I have a condition."
Stella paused for a moment before she chuckled and said, "It's just a suggestion for you to make money. What does this have to
do with me?"
"Oh." Vermont nodded. "I see. Well, then, forget it. I'm not interested in making money now. I'm different from Keegan. He has a
wife and children to support, so he has the motivation to earn more. Why would a single man like me want so much money? It's
just going to make me feel lonelier."
Stella quickly tried to persuade him. She said, "Hey, hey, hey. Why feel lonely? You still have Felicity. How are you going to marry
her if you don't have a lot of money? How will you raise your children?
"Do you know how expensive it is to raise a kid nowadays? Besides all the tuition fees, you still have to take them all over the
world to broaden their horizons. What if your kid wants to be an entrepreneur? How are you going to support them if you don't
have enough money? It's better to be prepared now, isn't it?"
Vermont sighed. "I do want to marry her, but fortunately, she doesn't want to marry me. There's no need to think so far ahead
because she doesn't even want me to meet her mother. She'd find all kinds of excuses whenever I brought this up. Do you think
she's just toying with me and never thought about marrying me?"
"That's impossible. Felicity isn't that kind of person. If she were, she would've dated a lot of men before you. The more serious
someone is, the more cautious they are about marriage. If she hasn't taken you to meet her mother, it might just be because she
isn't ready for marriage yet.

"After all, Felicity grew up in a single-parent household, and she was raised by her mother alone. Perhaps she doesn't trust
marriage, so she's reluctant to introduce you to her mother."
"Then help me,” Vermont immediately said. "Felicity listens to everything you say. If you give her some advice, maybe we can tie
the knot. Forget about filming just one short drama; we can do ten.
"You don't have to spend a penny, and I'll give you the title of producer.
We'll split the profit fifty-fifty. Consider it as pocket money for my two little nephews. How about that?"
Stella's eyes immediately lit up upon hearing Vermont's proposal.
Then, she spoke earnestly, "Why talk about money? My wish is for you two to settle down. I'm just doing what I can to make that
happen."
Vermont smiled. "I'll take that as a yes then."
Stella made an "OK" gesture with her hand.
After a while, Felicity came back.
Vermont stood up to grab her clothes and bag and handed her the slippers. He did everything automatically, and Felicity's
response was just as natural. It seemed like they had unconsciously formed this habit, coordinating seamlessly.
Stella paused and thought, 'They look like a married couple living together. Do they really need my help?'
Felicity was indeed very busy. She did not get a lot of sleep since New Year and had been going to the set every day. She had
even lost a few pounds, making her chin look pointier.
