Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1593
After some convincing, Stella managed to drag Marshall and Kayla out for food. She had messaged Keegan to come to the
gathering, but he was busy with work.
Upon hearing that she would be out with Marshall, he could not help but feel a pang of jealousy. However, knowing that Kayla
would be there, Keegan begrudgingly swallowed his anger. He advised Stella to leave promptly after the meal and return to the
Royalpark Villa, saying he had something to discuss with her.
Stella could guess what Keegan had in mind. It was her birthday tomorrow. He probably wants to give me a birthday gift,' she
thought.
Wenham had initially planned an elaborate celebration, but Stella declined the effort. She was not close with many of the people
in her social circle. Considering the recent banquet thrown to announce Stella's return to the Saun family, throwing such a huge
event might not only be unfavorable but also be seen as excessive.
After much persuasion, Wenham settled for a smaller gathering with family and a few of Stella's close friends." This is the first
time we're celebrating your birthday,” he said.
Stella did not want to throw a party. However, she could not help but feel a bit sentimental hearing those words and eventually
agreed to the plan.
'Even with a reduced guest list, there would still be people to entertain. This means I wouldn't spend much alone time with him
on my birthday. There's no doubt he wants to spend some extra time with me beforehand.' With this in mind, Stella could not
help but eat faster.
Kayla watched as she devoured her food and asked, "Are you trying to eat more to get your money's worth?"
"Pfft-"
Upon hearing that, Stella choked on her food and coughed while covering her mouth, 'She literally shares the same humor as
Keegan.'
Marshall kindly handed her a tissue and said, "I saw on your social media that your audition was successful. When do you start
filming?"

Stella became enthusiastic at the mere mention of work," Probably after New Year’s."
The new movie adapted from a novel was called The Enclosure. The narrative unfolded during an era of strict social boundaries
that placed significant limitations on women's freedoms.
The female lead of the movie was not allowed to remarry following her husband's passing. Instead, she had to keep up with the
mourning rituals within the confines of an enclosure. All the women in the town who lost their husbands were sent there. Those
who tried to escape would be severely shunned by others.
Should a woman bear a son who was willing to look after her, she could avoid confinement. If the son did not want to take
responsibility for his mother, she would be left there.
The story was narrated from the perspective of a child who lived in the enclosure. Her mother had given birth to her after the
passing of her husband. This led people to think that the woman had the child with another man. When the woman's husband
passed, his family tried to claim his property and refused to acknowledge the child.
In order to clear her name from the cheating accusations, the child's mother took her own life. The child was then raised by the
women inside the enclosure.
Over the years, the main lead witnessed the struggles and resistance of every woman within the enclosure.
The novel was exceptionally well-written. Stella could not fall asleep the first time she read it. Her mind was filled with the tragic
destinies of each character, burdened by the chains of their time.
Although the story mainly revolved around the fourth wife of a wealthy man, every character in the story had their own detailed
fate. The narrative intricately showcased the experiences of the women of that era.
Stella really liked the script of the movie. However, since Trevor had bought the rights to the film for her, the director did have
some reservations about her. He did not even invite her to audition in person but rather had her send a video where she recited a
few lines of dialogue.
The director also had a liking for the script. However, Trevor secured the rights to the film before he could. So, the director
approached Trevor, proposing to buy the rights from him.
Trevor was very gracious. He offered to let him direct the film and even stated that they could share the box office revenue. The
only condition was that Stella had to be the lead.

The director was rather famous in the industry and found it annoying when sponsors insisted on putting an actor into a film. But
he was particularly fond of the script. After much contemplation, he eventually relented.
The director did not think it was necessary for Stella to audition because she would be getting the part either way. So, he did not
bother to put her through the rigorous process.
Stella genuinely loved the concept of the movie. Though she knew that the director did not particularly favor her, she boldly
accepted the role.
"I'll work hard to play my part when the time comes. If the director still thinks I'm not suitable for the role, I'll step down. That way,
the director would be happy, and I won't have any regrets."
Marshall replied, "The director might have some bias because you were put in the movie by a sponsor. It's normal. Actually, I
don't think he dislikes you. It's just that most recommended actors who lack talent tend to act all high and mighty. There's nothing
wrong with using your connections if you truly can play a role well."
Stella felt comforted by his words and smiled, "You're right. I'll do my best and win over the director."
