Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted Chapter 1623 [Eleven Jewell]
Before Stella could process the situation, the kidnapper angrily hurled the phone
into the river. “You lying bitch! How dare you trick me?!”
Stella panicked. “I didn’t lie to you! I wouldn’t dare to deceive you when you’re
holding him hostage!”
Vermont was still on his way. The approaching vehicle was clearly not him.
‘We’re in the middle of nowhere. Who would venture here in the dead of night?
Could it be that the police had tracked our location?’
onto Keegan tightly, and his hands were trembling. It was evident he was
terrified that the approaching car might belong to law enforcement.
Keegan had lost a lot of blood at that point. He was ghastly pale and barely able
to stand on his own.
Stella’s heart ached for him. She feared that the kidnapper might impulsively
push Keegan off the bridge. “I swear I didn’t lie to you! Please release him. He’s
too injured to escape. Use me as your hostage. Please…”
Keegan could not bear to hear her pleas. The last thing he wanted was to
witness Stella bending over backward for him, and yet, it had happened twice
on this very day.
All of the kidnapper’s attention was focused on the approaching vehicle. He
stared intently at the illuminated area until the car reached the bridge, and its
engine fell silent.
Instinctively, he pressed down on Keegan’s shoulder, preparing to act at any
moment. At that critical moment, a woman’s voice sounded from the car.
“Landon Havoc!”
The kidnapper’s body tensed up, and he was in disbelief.
Shortly after, the door of the car swung open. A woman clad in a down jacket
and slippers stepped out of the vehicle. She was none other than the man’s exwife.
By her side stood Marshall, donned in a black windbreaker, nearly blending into
the night.
Hope ignited within Stella, and her eyes welled up with tears.
growing emotional. “You believed them when they told you I was involved with
other men. You wouldn’t even listen to my explanation. Which one of those socalled friends of yours actually treats you with sincerity? They’re all just using
you for favors. How many of them came to visit you when you fell ill and got
demoted? They only think of you when alcohol is involved. They don’t really
care about you. You’re just a form of entertainment to them! They’d be thrilled to
see you miserable!
“Look at you now. What have you become? They reveled in your misfortune the
moment your situation came to light on the news today. They even called my
parents with feigned concern. They could not wait to learn how the once mighty
man was reduced to a wretched state!” the woman continued.
“Bullshit! I saw you coming out of a hotel with another man with my own eyes.
Are you telling me that’s fake?” Landon raged.
His ex-wife explained, “My friend came to Rivera for a business trip. He and his
mentor are researching a topic related to your condition. I was simply seeking
his advice!”
