Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 217
Maya could not utter any more words. She gritted her teeth, got up, and left with reddened
eyes.
Stella had not returned that night. The next morning, when she came back after buying breakfast, she was bombarded with calls.
When she saw that it was Dahlia calling, her eyebrows instantly furrowed. She took a deep breath and tapped her phone to
answer.
But, before she could speak, Dahlia asked, “Stella, did you ask Keegan to fire Maya?”
Stella was confused. “Fire what? What are you talking about, Dahlia?”
“Keegan fired Maya. Maya came crying to me early in the morning. What did Maya do wrong that you have to fire her?”
‘Did Keegan fire Maya?” Stella frowned. “Dahlia, I was caring for my mom in the hospital last night. I don’t know what happened
at home”
“You don’t know?! Keegan blew up at Maya because of you! He’s still recovering from his injury, and yet you ran to the hospital to
take care of your mom. She’s been bedridden for years. Do you really need to be there for her? Seriously, who do you think has
been providing for you and taking care of you all this time? It’s time you realize that you owe everything to the Kane family and
stop being so ungrateful.”
Stella’s face turned grim. “Stop being ungrateful? So, are you saying that you, yourself, have ignored the well-being of your own
parents after marrying into the Kane family
Dahlia was taken aback. This was the first time Stella had ever talked back to her. When she came back to her senses, she
became enraged. “How dare you speak to me like that?! What happened to your manners?
“Dahlia, manners are not just words we say. If I neglect my mother, imagine how I’ll treat you when you’re old.” Before Dahlia
could erupt in rage, Stella added, “And one more thing, your son has always handled things with bias. If he fired Maya, it must be
because she crossed a line. Instead of arguing with me, you should go plead with Keegan. He might reconsider out of respect for
you.”
With that, Stella hung up the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Dahlia’s facial expression was terrifying.
Maya sobbed as she said, “He must have fired me because of the birth control pills. He and his wife quarreled because of it. Last
time, after I told you she hadn’t taken the fertility drink on time, she warned me that she would fire me. I thought she was just
joking. I didn’t expect...” She then started to cry again.
Maya did not care if Keegan had fired her because of Stella. What she wanted was to make Dahlia believe it, which proved that
she was incriminated for serving Dahlia. So, Dahlia would undoubtedly support her.
Dahlia’s face was gloomy as she snarled inwardly, ‘Maya is someone I sent, yet Stella blatantly asked Keegan to fire her.
Apparently, she doesn’t respect me.”
When she was reminded of Cordelia’s attitude toward Stella at the jewelry exhibition, Dahlia tightened her grip on the glass of
water.
“I really can’t live without this job. My husband is still unemployed, and the whole family is living on my salary. If I lose my job,
how can we live? I have always acted based on your orders, and I did not dare to neglect them in the slightest.
Dahlia’s head was throbbing as she listened to Maya. She pursed her lips before she said, You’ve worked for our family for so
many years. Don’t worry. I’ll give you an explanation on this matter.”
Meanwhile, after hanging up on Dahlia, Stella had been wondering the reason Keegan fired Maya.
Although Maya was calculative and was someone Dahlia had sent to spy on them, she sure knew how to get the job done.
Keegan was such a finicky person, who had tons of quirks, that even Cordelia’s housemaid, Corrin, could not stand him. It was
said that Maya used to take care of him before his marriage. She was like an elder in the house, yet Keegan had just fired her
like that. Stella pondered for a long time, but she could not figure out what was going on. She hesitated whether she should call
Keegan or not. But then, Albert’s call came in.
