Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 146
All the words that came out of Stella’s mouth were uttered seriously. Albert even began to wonder if he was overthinking it.
Finally, after pondering for a moment, he whispered, Didn’t you see the headlines today?”

“What headlines?” Stella asked blankly. “I just woke up and saw that you called. I had no time to look at anything else. Why?
What happened?”
“Mr. Anne’s purchase of the platinum bracelet is on the news,” Albert replied with a sullen face. “Isn’t it normal for such an
expensive piece of jewelry to make the news?” Stella did not seem to understand the severity of what was going on. “What’s the
problem?”
“How will Mr. Anne get a refund now that everyone knows about it?” Albert frowned. “Why don’t you ask Keegan to talk to Mr.
Snyder again? Ask him if it’s possible to say that there was something wrong on the manufacturing side and that they need to
take it back.”
‘How could I possibly ask Keegan to do such a shameless thing? He never thinks about what it’s like for me,’ Stella sneered.
“I’m afraid I can’t do that, dad. You asked me to talk to Mr. Snyder about the matter, and I did. he agreed. Now that Mr. Anne is
trending on the internet and feels embarrassed to return the product, you want the seller to lie about the bracelet’s quality?
Would you agree to that if you were Mr. Snyder?”
“I helped you to save your friend’s face and allowed him to return the bracelet, but now you’re asking us to lie? Vermont is not
dumb. He would never agree to be taken advantage of. God, 1 can’t even bear to ask Keegan about it.”
Albert was getting a little nervous. “Why can’t you do it? We’re family. Shouldn’t we be helping each other at times like this?
Didn’t I work hard to let you marry into the Kane family? Do you not care about this family anymore now that your life is better?”
‘How dare he say that! Not only did he work his way through the Kane family, he even wiped out the entire company that he and
mom built. All the leading people in the company workforce left within two years. He wanted me to marry into the Kane family
because he needed the money to rebuild the company that was destroyed in his hands. He searched high and low for a sponsor
cum husband for me way before I finished my studies. It did not matter if the person had a bad reputation or if he was much older
than me. All that mattered was that

the money. He was willing to give her daughter away for his interests!’

‘He doesn’t even remember what I had to go through to get him the money for the company. Now that he’s in need, I’m the one
who’s being an ungrateful and vicious b*tch?’ Stella suddenly felt ridiculous for thinking that Albert was capable of change.
“Was what I did all these years alongside Keegan not enough, dad? When have I yet to try my best to fulfill your requests? No
matter how difficult you were, I never uttered a single word of complaint. On the contrary, I’d tell myself, ‘Oh, but he’s family.
There’s no harm in helping.’ But what about you? Did you ever think how hard it was for me to be your perfect little princess?”
Stella took a deep breath, and her voice trembled as she continued, “Keegan and I almost got a divorce not long ago.”
“What?!” Albert raised his voice. “What happened? Why did you guys almost get divorced?”
“Do you remember the last time you asked me to talk to Keegan about the production line?” Stella sniffled. “I lied about not
talking to him because he got very mad at me. He said that I was selfish and overreaching. We had a big fight over this. If
grandma hadn’t stopped him, we would have been separated by now. Keegan and I don’t really have a deep emotional
foundation. There are some things that I can’t talk about too much with him. I can’t anger him any further, dad. Dahlia already
didn’t like me because I couldn’t get pregnant...”
Albert seemed to be moved by Stella’s sincerity. But, on the other hand, Keegan, who was having a meeting, suddenly felt a chill
down his back.
