Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 2220
The pre-meeting interview was brief, and all the journalists were professionals; none of them mentioned the online news. It was Keegan's debut in the public eye, and for many journalists, it was their first encounter with him.
It was astonishing to see the person leading the formidable team at the Vinci Rivera Group not only young and talented but also remarkably handsome. He outshone many celebrities in the entertainment industry, yet his demeanor was entirely different from that of a star. He exuded composure, reserve, and even a hint of subtle dry humor in his speech, which contradicted the rumors.
When faced with professional inquiries, he responded fluently. Unlike previous occasions where questions were coordinated with the Vinci Rivera Group beforehand, this year's questions were collected online by journalists. They ranged from inquiries from professionals to the expectations of ordinary product enthusiasts. Keegan earnestly and substantively addressed each one.
During the interview, the hostess accidentally stumbled while fetching water, falling into Keegan's arms. Keegan swiftly raised his hand to assist her, and as their eyes briefly met, he paused before releasing her and continuing to field questions. The embarrassed hostess was then escorted away, her face flushed red.
Meanwhile, in the lounge on the other side, Stella observed this scene on the live broadcast, calmly sipping her cup of herbal tea without a trace of concern on her face.
Aurora felt incredulous and bluntly asked, "Are you blind?"
Stella shot her a glance and retorted, "Got a loose tongue?"
After a momentary glare from Aurora, she finally stated, "That woman clearly deliberately bumped into my brother. Who falls for no reason?"
Stella responded calmly, "Her heels were high, so it's normal to stumble. Every aspect of the Vinci Rivera Group's press conference is crucial. Trying to play tricks in such a situation is like gambling with one's own future."
Aurora stared at her in disbelief. "I can't believe you're being so magnanimous."
Stella remained silent and instead sent a message to Aldor, "Look into the hostess who stumbled into Keegan's arms just now."
She didn't believe the girl was that clumsy, but that didn't mean she didn't suspect someone was trying to cause trouble. It was better to investigate and eliminate any potential risks.
As the clock neared ten o'clock, the opening ceremony was about to commence, and Stella had everything arranged on her end.
Just before entering, she received an audio clip from Keegan. Putting on her earphones, she listened as she made her way in.
The press conference was more grandiose than ever, with thousands of people gathered at the entrance. Keegan had ensured that she had a frontrow seat.
As Stella settled into her seat, she noticed that many of Keegan's friends had also arrived. Marshall Moore was among them, seated in the row behind her.
It had been a while since they last met, and he seemed slightly thinner. Clad in a white suit, he maintained his gentle and courteous demeanor.
However, when their eyes met, his eyelashes trembled slightly before he greeted her, "Stella, long time no see."
Stella couldn't quite describe her emotions and simply nodded in response before taking her seat.
Vermont leaned in and asked her in a hushed tone, "Why aren't you addressing the online news? The comments under Keegan's Facebook posts are vile."
Last night, the little scoundrel had dragged him into a few arguments with fake accounts. The dogs didn't get banned, but they did. They were in for it!
Stella whispered back, "The Luna II pre-sale is about to begin. Would you like to place an order?"
Vermont was speechless.
Vermont's ears had perked up, awaiting her response, but she ended up pitching business for her husband?
A slight twitch appeared at the corner of Vermont's mouth. "Can't afford it."
Stella offered, "I'll ask Keegan to give you a 10% discount, three years of free upgrades, eight years of free maintenance, and a lifetime warranty. If you bring in
clients, you'll receive a commission."
Vermont inquired, "How much of a commission?"
