Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1023

Chapter 1023

Felicity would not have run away from her home if it was not because of the endless blind dates her mother arranged for her.

With her twenty-sixth birthday approaching in two weeks and nothing bad happening to her, her head got big. She even texted her mother to make fun of her superstitious belief and told her to be more practical.

Unexpectedly, karma hit her right in the face.

The disaster had caught up with her right before turning twenty-six.

And she could even be jailed.

Felicity got more anxious and scared as she thought about that. She even wanted to swap places with Vermont.

Vermont heard her coming inside, but not talking at all. His back was starting to feel stiff. He was about to stretch for a bit, and he heard Felicity say, ‘I’ll take care of your medical bill and all your expenses during your recovery period, including your lost wages…” She paused and continued with her red eyes, “I probably can’t afford to compensate you for your lost wages for now. Can you write me an I0U instead?”

Vermont looked at her. He ignored her question and asked, “What did the doctor tell you just now?”

Felicity paused. “Didn’t he talk to you about it?”

Vermont replied, “It hurt too much when he was treating me, so I didn’t pay attention to his words.”

Felicity kept quiet.

‘What am I going to tell him? That he’s probably going to be permanently injured? And his reproductive ability could be affected?”

Seeing that Felicity remained silent, Vermont asked tentatively, “Is it very serious?”

Felicity nodded slowly.

She felt even guiltier as she thought to herself. ‘Even if you’re mentally prepared, you probably can’t accept the fact that you’ll be important, right?’

Felicity quickly went to pat his back to soothe him.

It took Vermont a while to finally stop coughing. Then, he looked at Felicity and said, “I’m not worried about that. I’m just afraid that when this gets out. I’ll be a laughingstock of everybody.”

Felicity immediately assured him. “Don’t worry, I’m not going to spill a word about this. If you ever heard anyone else talking about this, you can cut my tongue off.”

Vermont sighed and said, “It’s not as simple as you think. Even if you don’t say a word about it, people would become suspicious of me if I still couldn’t get a girlfriend at my age. It’s impossible for me to hide this forever.”

Felicity thought about how other people had been paying so much attention to Stella’s belly all these years after she married Keegan, so she believed in what Vermont said without a doubt upon hearing it.

“What should we do then?” Felicity started pondering. “Why don’t you find an actress and pay her to be your fake girlfriend? In that way, people won’t be suspicious of you anymore, right?”

Noticing that Felicity had fallen into his trap, Vermont sighed and said,” That could work, but only temporarily. Especially with a person that we don’t know, we can never trust her entirely. If I can never recover from this, no one will be my fake girlfriend forever and how can I live without being with my true love?”

Felicity frowned and hesitated for some time before she finally said in a low voice, “l-l’ll be your fake girlfriend then.”
