Chapter 2184
Dahlia didn't bring up Blake's gambling issues at all. She simply mentioned problems with the company's production line, orders on hold, and a cash flow problem.
Keegan was swayed by Stella and wasn't willing to lend a hand. With no other options left, she had to turn to Stella for help.
Dahlia understood Jaylene's deep affection for Keegan. Unable to reach Stella, Jaylene was her last hope. That was why she was adamant about not telling Jaylene about Stella's pregnancy. If Jaylene found out, she'd likely lose hope in her relationship with Keegan, so why would she want to offer assistance?
She grabbed Jaylene, tears brimming in her eyes. "You've always been the daughter-in-law I favored. You and Keegan grew up together. If it weren't for you going abroad for treatment, Stella wouldn't even be in the picture. I strongly opposed Keegan marrying her. She's held a grudge against me for years, and now that she's become the golden child, she's constantly at odds with me. At my age, I couldn't care less. All I want is for my children to be happy and stable." "But Blake is Keegan's uncle, his only one. If something really happens to him in the future, fingers will be pointed at Keegan; how could she be so heartless as to discourage him from helping? Isn't she putting Keegan in an unfair position?"
As she spoke, she choked up once more.
Jaylene handed her a tissue. "Stella is too much! Aunt Dahlia, please don't cry. I'll call Keegan and help you explain the situation. Keegan values relationships the most; he'll definitely help his uncle."
Dahlia's eyes widened, looking at Jaylene strangely, momentarily forgetting to cry.
Where did she get the confidence that Keegan would listen to her?
Jaylene held her phone, about to dial Keegan's number, when Dahlia suddenly stood up. "Jaylene, don't call. Just forget I came. I'll think of another way."
With that, she grabbed her bag and made to leave. Jaylene was taken aback, quickly catching up. "Aunt Dahlia, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly leaving?" "Jaylene, you don't understand Keegan's temper. If he finds out I've brought this family disgrace to you over this little money, he'll hate me." "What will you do then? If there's any other way, why would you come to ask Stella for help?"
Dahlia clenched her fists, unable to speak.
Jaylene remained silent for a moment before speaking again. "Aunt Dahlia, how much of a shortfall are you facing?"
Dahlia, with red eyes, said, "Not much, just twenty million."
Jaylene's forehead twitched. Twenty million was still considered not much?
