Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted Chapter 1622 [Eleven Jewell]
Stella did not have a good memory. She only had a few numbers memorized in
her mind. Aside from close family members, Keegan, and Felicity, the only
number she remembered was Vermont’s. So, she gave the man his number.
The man had restrained Keegan with one hand while he called the number with
his other hand.
Vermont was driving toward the location that the police had mentioned at that
time. He picked up the phone when he saw that an unknown caller was calling
him.
Stella was afraid that he might inadvertently reveal his identity, so she
immediately spoke up as soon as Vermont answered. “Mr. Moore, it’s me.”
Vermont was taken aback and slammed on the brakes. He quickly turned on the
phone’s recording function and spoke in a low voice, “Where are you? We’ve
been searching everywhere for you!”
Stella breathed a sigh of relief. She was worried that Vermont would not play
along. She had overheard the kidnappers talking, and it seemed like the police
were already involved. Clearly, news about the abduction had spread among
friends and family. The kidnappers would catch on immediately if Vermont acted
like he did not know about the kidnapping.
“We’re safe for now, but we can’t go back just yet.”
“How’s Keegan?”
“He…” Stella started to choke up at the mention of her partner’s name. “He’s not
doing well. Can you come over? A friend wants to see you. He might have
mistaken something, and he needs you to come over to confirm it. Please, I’m
begging you.”
Vermont’s heart sank. ‘Keegan must be in bad shape for Stella to act like this,’
Vermont to take winding routes to evade potential police surveillance.
Stella was anxious and worried about Keegan’s injuries. “Mr. Moore is on his
way. Can you let him go now? He’s injured. Put him aside, and hold me hostage
instead.” She paused and gritted her teeth. “Mr. Moore has feelings for me. You
can use me to threaten him. The chances of success will be higher.”
Keegan’s face turned pale. “What the hell are you talking about?!”
“I’m not…”
“Shut up!” Keegan snapped. “We’re divorced. Stop trying to save me. I won’t be
moved by your actions!”
“I…”
Stella wanted to retort, but she suddenly heard the sound of an engine.
The kidnapper heard it too, but he found it weird since Vermont was still far
away from the destination.
