MR. KANE GOT BLACKLISTED - Season 2 Episode 1

Just as Stella was about to reach out and accept the glass, Keegan quietly said beside her, “I thought

you couldn’t drink right now?”

Stella was at a loss for words.

‘I can’t tell him I said that because I didn’t want Bella’s drink, right? It’ll look like I care about him,‘ she

thought.

“Who said I’m drinking?” she moved her hand away and grabbed the juice she was drinking just now.

Then, she smiled at Marshall with her eyes. “You don’t mind me drinking juice instead of wine?”

Marshall’s gaze softened. “Go ahead.”

Vermont saw Keegan’s darkened expression. He quickly grabbed a glass of wine and stuffed it into his

hands. Then, he moved closer and said with a smile, “It’s only fun to drink wine when everyone’s drinking

together. Here’s to you, Stella.”

Stella glanced bewilderedly at Vermont.

‘It can be said that Vermont and I usually can’t stand the sight of each other. Keegan’s friends all look down on my background and have always complained about how I managed to marry Keegan. When

Keegan’s around, Vermont will pretend to say hello for his sake. But, when I’m alone, and he sees me on

the street–forget about saying hello–he completely pretends like he didn’t see me. As for me, I don’t like

Keegan’s rich, elitist friends, especially Vermont Snyder. A large part of why I dislike Vermont is because

of Bella. It’s all thanks to this pimp that Keegan and Bella’s relationship is well–hidden, and she can stay

out of scandals. Everyone usually finds me an eyesore, yet they’re now calling me by my first name. Can

they not make my skin crawl?‘ she thought.

Bella watched as the few chatted as if no one else were there and completely ignored her presence. She

finally could no longer sit still and initiated a conversation.

“Mr. Snyder, is this man your friend?”

Vermont seemed to just notice her. He was momentarily stunned. “What are you doing here?”

Bella’s lips twitched in annoyance.

‘I’ve been standing here since forever!‘ she thought.

Bella feigned a smile, “Didn’t my manager tell you? I’m here for a charity performance.”

“Oh, I think I remember now. This is Attorney Moore,” said Vermont.

Then, he said to Marshall, “This is an artist from my company–Bella Young.”

Vermont was not that close with Bella, so his introduction of her was slipshod.

‘I wonder if it’s because I’m also here,‘ Stella thought.

Once Bella learned that Marshall was a lawyer, the expression on her was no longer as friendly

as before.

Meanwhile, Marshall was gentlemanly as usual. He proactively reached out and greeted her. Nice to

meet you, Ms. Young. I’ve heard a lot about you.”

“Hello, Attorney Moore.”

Bella spoke with a smile on her face but shook Marshall’s hand half–heartedly. She practically retracted

her hand the moment Marshall touched her hand. It was as though she was worried that he would touch

her.

Marshall froze and looked Bella up and down. Suddenly, he said, “Your voice doesn’t sound quite like

your voice in the dramas, Ms. Young.”

Bella was a little unhappy. She had been a hot topic several times because of the voiceover, so she was

really sensitive when it came to the issue of dubbing in dramas. She constantly thought people were

ridiculing her whenever they brought this up.

“Dramas undergo sound processing post–production.”

Her words implied that it was normal for voices to sound different in real life compared to TV.

“That’s true,” Marshall laughed.

He said warmly, “Could you give me your autograph, Ms. Young? I really like your work.” Vermont was

shocked. “I couldn’t tell, Marshall. You like dramas with idols?”

Marshall said earnestly, “Ms. Young’s dramas are pretty good. You should watch some when you’re free.

It builds character.”

Vermont twitched his lips speechlessly.

‘Have I gone crazy, or has Marshall gone crazy? Watching cliché dramas can build character? What in

the world?‘ he thought.

Bella noticed Vermont’s tone and attitude while he was speaking to Marshall. She figured that Marshall’s

identity was not as simple as just a lawyer. So, she immediately changed her

attitude.
