Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 2176

The Crosby family had been declining ever since Dahlia tied the knot. The Crosby siblings, all looks and no brains, would have disappeared from high society long ago if not for the support of the Kane family in recent years.

After Keegan cut ties with Dahlia, who was using Cordelia's name to manipulate and deceive for her brother's business, the already struggling company took a further nosedive.

But Blake's wife running off with the money? Stella wasn't buying it.

They hadn't even gotten a divorce, so where could she possibly run off to with two children in tow? If she was going to leave, why not do it when Blake had money? Without money, where could she possibly go?

And Keegan's aunt wasn't that naive.

Blake was a gambler, blowing through half of the Crosby family's fortune despite his good looks and respectable background. None of the well-mannered girls wanted to marry a gambler like him.

Blake's wife, Kanrara Kent, was introduced to him by someone from the Crosby family. She came from an average family, looked plain, and had a fiery temperament.

Blake didn't tie the knot until he was well into his thirties. At the time, Keegan was almost done with middle school, so he remembered the events vividly.

With Keegan's maternal grandfather already gone and his maternal grandmother not in great health, the responsibility of arranging the marriage fell on Dahlia's shoulders.

Dahlia strongly disliked Kanrara, finding her crude, uncultured, unattractive, and from an average background. Despite her objections, her mother was determined to have Kanrara.

Seeing that persuasion was futile, Dahlia decided to make a statement at the wedding by swapping Kanrara's red envelope, traditionally given to the bride, with one containing only a coin.

She thought this would put Kanrara in her place, but during the toasting ceremony, when Kanrara was chatting with Cordelia and Keegan nearby, the coin rolled out of the open envelope.

Everyone knew it was a red envelope from the Crosby family. Even if Dahlia wanted to assert authority over the new bride, humiliating her with a mere coin was too much.

Despite the Crosby family's decline, they couldn't afford such embarrassment. Mrs. Crosby, Keegan's maternal grandmother, immediately claimed it was a mistake and gave Kanrara a substantial red envelope.

Keegan said the Crosby grandparents had no boundaries when it came to spoiling their children. Blake ended up a mess because of it. The only thing they got right was marrying Blake to Kanrara; otherwise, the siblings would have squandered the Crosby family's fortune.

Dahlia thought Kanrara's actions

were an embarrassment to the Crosby family, so they argued in front of the funeral parloiXBut Kanrara retorted, "A daughter who is married to another family should no longer meddle in their maiden family's affairs. If you want to meddle in the Crosby family's affairs, you might as well move back to the Crosby family." The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest chapter there!

By then, Dahlia was already a widow and couldn't bear to give up the prestige and wealth of the Kane family, so she had to relent.

Kanrara was tough. Every time Blake went gambling, she would drag him back home with a knife and lock him in his room without food. At first, Blake would argue and threaten divorce, but after a few days without food, he became

compliant.

After a few such incidents, several underground gambling dens in Rivera blacklisted Blake, and he finally straightened up.
