Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted Chapter 2440 - Vermont quickly responded, "I'm an old fox and won't be attracted to a young fox like you." Tatiana grinned at him and then said to Felicity, "I like people who are rich but simple-minded. If they're not too smart, even better." Felicity was stunned.

Tatiana, aren't you being a bit too blunt?

Tatiana smiled. With her ponytail and plain face, she looked innocent, but her words were direct. "Do you think I'm materialistic?"

Felicity quickly shook her head. "No." Worried Tatiana wouldn't believe her, Felicity added, "Only truly materialistic people call themselves that. Besides, when looking for a partner, who doesn't want someone with good qualities? Otherwise, we might end up digging wild vegetables to survive."

Tatiana smiled brightly. "Vermont, you're the first to say this and make me feel better. Others either avoid the topic or look at me strangely."

Felicity felt embarrassed. "Everyone has their own standards when choosing a partner. I used to think I'd end up with a calm, knowledgeable doctor or teacher. Instead, I found a chatterbox who talks more than I do." Vermont was caught off guard.

"I talk too much?" Vermont said, dissatisfied. "Then go find someone quiet who never says anything. With how much you love to gossip, you'd get sick holding it all in! I talk a lot, but have you ever seen me talk this much to anyone else? I do it because I want to share everything with you. Should I stay silent instead? You should worry if I stop talking to you. And what's wrong with talking? A couple should communicate more, not less. Do you want us to act out silent films at home?"

Felicity's mouth twitched. "You feel wronged when I say you talk too much. Look how many times you respond to my one sentence."

Vermont coughed and whispered, "I have to defend myself. Have you ever seen a debater say just one sentence in an argument?”

Felicity glared at him, making Tatiana laugh.

Felicity sighed, "This is what happens when you marry a chatterbox. You can't even win an argument!”

Tatiana stopped laughing and said, "You two love each other, so you're willing to compromise on your preferences. But for me, mutual affection isn't that important. I just want a financially stable man who's easy to manage, with a decent appearance and height. You can't have it all."

Felicity finally understood why Vermont called Tatiana practical.

Tatiana weighed both parties' conditions carefully when choosing a partner.

What does she have? Youth, beauty, a good education, a respected job, and parents with social status.

What does she want? A wealthy man without much wit.

If she asked for too much, it might not work out. But because she asks for so little, Felicity felt sure Tatiana would catch Aaron's interest at today's blind date and secure him.

No wonder "Stinky Cucumber" asked Tatiana for help. It gave her a suitable match and complicated things for Jaylene-a two-birds-one-stone scenario.

As they looked for a parking spot at the restaurant, Tatiana asked, "What's Aaron's type?"

Before Vermont could answer, Felicity said, "Dead green tea."

Tatiana blinked in confusion.

Felicity clarified, "The kind who pretends to be weak, asks men for help, sends private photos, and calls them 'giegie"!"

Tatiana stayed silent. Noticing this, Felicity asked, "Is that a problem?"

Tatiana replied, "No, I just didn't expect the bar to be set so high."

Felicity was surprised.

Vermont grinned and whispered to Felicity, "I'll show you the real pros in top-tier green tea."

He led Felicity out of the car, still puzzled.

When they arrived at the restaurant's private room, the entire Keller family was there. Mr. and Mrs. Keller were well-dressed, clearly taking this meeting seriously. Aaron sat next to Mrs. Keller in a plain white T-shirt, looking disinterested.

The moment they entered, Mrs. Keller noticed Tatiana following Vermont. Her eyes lit up, and she subtly nudged Mr. Keller under the table.

Vermont smiled and apologized, "I'm sorry for the delay, Mr. and Mrs. Keller. There was an emergency at the hospital when I was picking them up. I tried to hurry, but we were still late."

Mrs. Keller quickly responded, "No worries. We arrived early, and hospitals always have emergencies. It's out of your control."

Mr. Keller added, "No need to stand; sit down, and let's eat and chat."

Tatiana nodded politely, greeted the elders, and then pulled out the chair next to Aaron.

Aaron hesitated for a moment and subtly tried to shift the chair closer to Mrs. Keller, but she kicked it back.

Aaron was speechless.

Once seated, Vermont introduced Felicity and Tatiana to the Keller elders, focusing on Tatiana.

Tatiana was polite and confident, answering questions without any sign of shyness or nerves.

Mrs. Keller introduced Aaron to Tatiana, "This is my son, Aaron. He's two years older than you, studied business management, and has lived abroad."

She subtly urged Aaron to speak, but he stayed silent. Mrs. Keller looked a bit embarrassed. "He's a bit introverted, doesn't talk much..."

Tatiana smiled. "That's fine. Quiet boys are usually more stable emotionally. Sometimes, people who talk too much aren't as smart." Vermont's eye twitched. Was she indirectly talking about him?

Aaron glanced at Tatiana.

Tatiana lowered her eyes and smiled, tucking a stray hair behind her ear. Felicity's heart skipped a beat.

Why did Tatiana suddenly seem

more beautiful than she did in the car? Her clothes, hairstyle, and makeup hadn't changed, but that smile was captivating.

Aaron looked away, still saying nothing.

Mrs. Keller was thrilled and kept nudging Aaron to speak, but hem remained quiet. Tatiana smoothly took over the conversation whenever the room fell silent. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

After a few rounds of drinks, Tatiana stood up. "Uncle, Aunt, I'm going to step out for some fresh air. Excuse me."

Mrs. Keller saw her chance and

quickly said, "Aaron, why don't you join her? The restaurant's layout can be confusing, but Aaron knows it well and can show you around." Read

As she spoke, Mrs. Keller nudged Aaron, who nearly fell onto the table before reluctantly standing up.

Tatiana softly asked, "Is that okay with you?"

Under his mother's stern gaze, Aaron swallowed his refusal and mumbled, "Sure, I could use some air too."

Tatiana thanked him and followed him out like a shadow.

Mrs. Keller wanted to check on them, but Vermont gently stopped her. "Mrs. Keller, Mr. Keller, what do you think of Tatiana?"
