Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Chapter 1226

Leighton was different from everyone else in the room; he had never met Freesia, so he did not share a deep relationship with her. That was why he had not paid much attention to this cousin, who seemed to appear out of nowhere.

However, he was quite pleased to have a new cousin in the family. It meant he now had someone to use as a shield if his father ever complained about him again in the future. After all, this cousin did not grow up in his family, so he figured she could never be more outstanding than him. In that way, he would no longer have to be the worstperforming member of the family and be despised by his father.

Leighton pushed the door open after adjusting his clothes. Then, he saw his crush sitting in the middle of his family.

He was shocked.

Stella was stunned too. She paused and was unsure whether she should put the piece of prawn into her mouth or not. Keegan had previously told her about the relationship between Leighton and Trevor, so she already knew that Leighton was her cousin a few days ago.

She did not see him anywhere when she arrived and thought that he could not make it because he had something else to do. She was not expecting to see him there.

She immediately put down her fork. To be honest, she still felt a little embarrassed. After all, they had acted as a couple before and even almost kissed each other. Come to think of it; she was actually grateful for that troublemaker, Keegan’s interference. Otherwise, things would have been even more awkward.

Leighton’s eyes were filled with shock. Daryl frowned and said, “Why are you just standing there? Come inside. We’ve been waiting for you.”
