"Who do we have here? The heir of the Kane family.
To what do I owe the pleasure?" Cyrene's tone was casual, but upon closer inspection, it carried a hint of sarcasm.
She still harbored resentment toward Keegan for reporting Jackson to the police earlier.
Even though Jackson returned safely, Cyrene couldn't swallow her pride as a mother.
If it weren't for Chandler consistently advising him not to act impulsively, she would have had her whole family come over and demand justice.
Keegan remained composed facing Cyrene's cold remarks.
His tone was mild, "My mom got arrested." Cyrene chuckled.
"Well, what goes around comes around." Keegan pressed on, "Chandler's not home, is he?" Cyrene paused.
"Why do you ask?" Keegan explained, 'My mom needs reinforcements.
Who else can she turn to in the Kane family besides Chandler?" Cyrene's expression darkened.
"Are you calling to mock me?" "No, I'm here to pick you up." Cyrene was taken aback.
"What did you say?" Keegan explained calmly, "My mom could've found anyone in the Kane family for help, but she chose Chandler.
I don't think it's appropriate for him to go alone.
What do you think?" Cyrene clenched her hands, her face revealing a hesitant expression.
After a moment, she asked, "Where are you?" "At your doorstep." This left Cyrene speechless.
"You can come out.
Your friends are gone.
No one will know about this," Keegan continued.
Keegan replied in disdain, "Whether you bail her out or not is your business.
I'm just responsible for bringing you there.
I don't want my father's reputation to be tarnished by his brother and wife." Staring at Keegan, Cyrene tried to decipher his expression.
Yet, Keegan remained indifferent, even when discussing Dahlia's arrest.
"Why don't you go bail out your mom yourself?" asked Cyrene Keegan nonchalantly said, "She committed such an act under surveillance, and it was even broadcast live.
No matter how capable I am, I can't cover it up for her.
I can't let the Kane family and Vinci Rivera suffer because of her, can I?" Cyrene felt irritated.
'He doesn't want to get involved in the mess, so he had my husband do it? Who would bear the blame if Dahlia were to be released, and it generated attention online?' 'Considering Keegan's previous incident, my family had finally regained some standing within the company.
We can't afford to lose it again because of this,' she thought.
