Chapter 1394
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Nicole could not stop glancing in Stellaâs direction as she touched up her makeup. Seeing Stella quickly regain her composure, she murmured, âNot bad.â
Lindy immediately stepped in front of her and blocked her view of Stella. âFocus on your acting. Donât let your heart wander!â She warned.
Nicole was stunned to hear that. âIâm not interested in her, okay?â Nicole shot her manager a glance and said. âIâm just a bit surprised she managed to keep up with me.â
With all the rumors circulating, she had genuinely believed that Keegan had married some random eye candy. Though, it seemed that he had found a hidden gem.
Just as Nicole was thinking about this, Leighton suddenly walked by her, and she extended her leg subtly. As expected, Leighton tripped over it and almost fell flat on his face.
âHahahaâ¦â Nicole burst out laughing.
Once Leighton steadied himself, he glared at Nicole, his face dark. âWhy the hell did you do that?â He asked.
Nicole innocently shrugged. âItâs not my fault you donât watch where youâre going. My leg hurts after you tripped over it, you know?â
She shook her legs and playfully teased him, âOr did you trip over them on purpose because you find my legs attractive?â Leighton laughed in exasperation and said, âSorry. Iâm a man with taste. Whatâs there to find attractive about your skeletal- looking legs?â
Nicole paused and stepped up to him. âWho are you calling a skeleton?â
Leighton looked at her and firmly said, âYou.â
Nicole then grabbed his hand and placed it on her breasts.
Leightonâs face burned up instantly. He pushed Nicole away and began heaving heavily. The veins on his forehead were about to pop. It took him a while to grit his teeth and say,â You should be ashamed!â
It was a good thing that they were indoors and away from fans. At the same time, everyone else was too busy with their own tasks to pay attention to them.
Nicole put on an innocent look and said, âI was just providing proof that Iâm not all skin and bones.â
Leighton knew just how shameless this woman was. He also knew he could not possibly win over their argument and might end up getting played again like before.
So, he swallowed his frustration and walked away with a dark expression Nicole felt a bit disappointed seeing that the Tiger was not biting back like he used to. âDid he get a rabies shot or something? Why is he suddenly so docile?â
Lindy could not help but say, âItâs best you donât provoke him. His fans will literally kill you.â
âI have a fanbase too, you know? I know theyâll fight backâ¦â Nicole shrugged.
Hearing that, Lindy scoffed and said, âMost of your fans are middle-aged and busy taking care of their kids. Whoâs got the time to fight for you online?â
Nicole was rendered speechless.
Meanwhile, Keegan was not in a good mood after the call with Luke. He went straight home once he finished his work. He could smell some alternative remedies as soon as he entered the house. Keegan pursed his lips and headed for the kitchen without a word.
