Chapter 491
Stella did not know, but Dahlia clearly knew about it. The thumb ring itself was not valuable, but the emerald thumb ring
represented the position of the matriarch of the Kane family.
The origins of the thumb ring were ancient. They seemed to be passed on by the Kane family ancestors and ultimately arrived in
Cordelia's hand. When Cordelia made her name, the emerald thumb ring had already become her hallmark, symbolizing her
identity as the Kane family matriarch.
Cordelia had two sons and a daughter. The daughter was married off to a faraway land while her two sons stayed with her.
Logically, after the two sons were married, she had to select a new owner for the thumb ring. By convention, it should belong to
the eldest daughter-in-law.
However, after her marriage with Quentin, Cordelia did not give her the emerald thumb ring as of late.
In the past, she was pregnant out of wedlock when she married Quentin. Due to this layer of elements. Dahlia always felt that
Cordelia was quite critical of her. Thus, Cordelia had been reluctant to hand over the emerald thumb ring to her. Luckily, Cordelia
also did not give it to Cyrene.
If things had stayed that way, it would have been fine. Since no one could get it. Dahlia did not feel upset. However, once Stella
married into the family, Cordelia gifted her the emerald thumb ring. It was even during the tea ceremony for serving tea, and she
gave it to Stella as though it was a casual gift.
Keegan was not close to Stella, and he did not follow her wishes when he married his wife. And, Dahlia despised Stella, but the
person she disdained easily obtained the emerald thumb ring she could not ask for. So, how could she not hate Stella?
Now that Stella had divorced Keegan, naturally, she would want that item back. As long as she could get it from Stella here, she
was not afraid that Cordelia would ask for it back.
Stella glanced outside the window while her hand was holding her phone and dialing a number. She then stuck the phone onto
the table and raised her gaze.
’On what grounds do I have to apologize to Aurora? She ran to my workplace to make a fuss, destroyed my makeup room, and
even injured my arm. If an apology is needed, it's Aurora who should apologize to me. Why should I apologize to her?’
Dahlia had a somber look on her face. "You splashed boiling water on Aurora! Do you think you're innocent? If it weren't for me,
considering that we were mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, I would have called the cops on you!"
’Speaking of cops..." Stella raised her gaze. 'Madam Dahlia, you should be worried about yourself instead. You think I wouldn't
know about the dirty things that you did?"
Dahlia furrowed her brows. "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Stella took a bottle of medicine out of her bag and put them on the table. She asked, "Look familiar?"
Dahlia said with a normal expression, ' What do you mean?’
Stella then put a list of the medicine's ingredients on the table before she asked, "This should be more familiar, right?’
Dahlia stared at the names of the alternate remedies on the list, and her expression was slightly serious. "I don't know what
you're talking about?"
Stella coldly pulled the corner of her lips into a smile. ’ Safflower, wisteria, deer musk, ephedra, sophora... These herbs sound
familiar?"
Dahlia stared at her and did not speak.
’You didn't want me to get pregnant, so you drugged me. You made me not being able to bear children. Dahlia, did you really
think you could fool everyone?"
On the other side of the phone, Keegan pursed his lips tightly while his expression was extremely sullen. Aldor, who was at the
side, did not dare to breathe too hard.
Keegan had actually gotten dressed for quite some time at home and happily attended the appointment. When he arrived at the
coffee shop, Stella's phone call came. Keegan was overwhelmed when he received the call, yet the sound of Stella and Dahlia
chatting came instead.
