Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1250
Felicity took it as just something that a playboy would typically say, so she curled her lips and said, "Well, this has got to be tough
for you then."
Just as she was speaking, her phone rang. It was a call from Stella.
"Are you coming back tonight? Or are you staying at Vermont's place?"
Felicity immediately stood up, "I'm coming back!"
Then, she grabbed the iPad and left. Vermont froze in place.
'Keegan is such a useless guy. When is he going to marry Stella and take her home? He’s literally the reason why I’m still
single!”
Keegan told Stella that he would find a lawyer for her, and he did. The next day, someone contacted Stella and told her that
Keegan had given him her number.
Stella told the lawyer to meet her at a secluded cafe nearby. She pushed the door open and was a little taken aback.
It turned out that the lawyer was someone she had seen before. It was Ted Eldrich, the same lawyer who represented Bella in
the previous defamation case.
Ted stood up as soon as he saw Stella coming in and greeted her politely, "Hello, I'm the lawyer appointed by Keegan. My name
is Ted Eldrich."
Stella recollected herself and nodded. "Nice to meet you."
"Have a seat, Ms. Jewell," Ted said warmly. "Keegan had briefly told me about what's happening, but can you walk me through it
again so I don't miss out on any details?"
Stella quickly snapped out of her confusion and carefully explained the situation to Ted.
Ted was very professional. He seemed to be calmer and more indifferent as compared to a more empathetic lawyer like
Marshall.

However, this sense of indifference came from maintaining a professional distance from his clients. It did not affect the way he
handled the case at all. He would raise doubts and questions regarding Stella's statements to note them down.
They finished three cups of coffee each before Stella could finally clarify everything.
Ted closed his notebook and lifted his gaze. "I understand the situation now. I'll issue a notice as soon as possible to demand the
other party's eviction."
Stella was taken aback. "They're not going to obey, right?"
Ted smiled. "It doesn't matter. This is just a part of the protocol. We can only proceed to the next step after issuing a warning.
However, you have to be prepared."
"Prepared for what?"
"This case is very straightforward but tricky because we're dealing with a kindergarten. Hundreds of children would be left
without a school to attend if we were to evict the kindergarten. I'm sure the parents will be against this, and the opposing lawyer
will exploit this point to provoke the parents. It's not going to be easy dealing with this situation."
Marshall had already told Stella about this previously.
The kindergarten was the biggest uncertainty in this case.
Stella knew she could not expect the parents who paid their children's tuition fees to understand the dispute between the
kindergarten and the landowner. Undoubtedly, their primary concern would be their personal interests.
Stella pursed her lips and said, "Mr. Eldrich, my intention is not to evict the kindergarten. I just don't want the founder of this
kindergarten to take advantage of this and keep earning money from it."
Ted understood what she meant. "Well, I have a rough idea of what to do now if that's the case. Rest assured. I'll do my best to
safeguard your interests."
Stella nodded. "Thank you."
Ted placed his belongings back into his bag. Stella stared at him for a few seconds before she suddenly asked, "Mr.
Eldrich, can I ask you a few questions outside of work?"

Ted looked at the time. "I charge based on hours, and Keegan's payment is not used up yet. Go ahead."
Stella was speechless.
'What a money-minded man.'
Then, she cleared her throat and asked, "Are you a very good friend to Keegan?"
Ted lifted his gaze. "We went to the same college. We were in the same dorm, but we studied different courses."
"Hm... So, were you appointed by Keegan too, when you represented Bella for the defamation case back then?"
