Big Novel

Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 784
Dahlia's expression froze. She was aware of it, but having stayed there for so long, it already felt as if it was her own. After her
husband's passing, Cordelia took over and fostered Keegan while she alone had to take care of Aurora. Her love for Aurora was
real, but it was also to secure her own future as well. It was clear to her that she would not be able to find another family as good
as the prestigious Kane family if she were to remarry.
That was why she refused and chose to take custody when Cordelia proposed to give her a big lump sum of money along but
the custody of the children would go to the Kane family. She even declared that she would follow her husband's will and not
remarry until the children have grown up.
The sum Cordelia mentioned would naturally not be small, but what Dahlia lacked was not merely money. Her heart's deepest
desire was the reputation and status that came along from marrying into the Kane family.
She chose to bring up Aurora because she would definitely not want to lose her current status and return to her mundane and
mediocre life.
Cordelia respected her decision and did not mistreat her. This property was bought for Dahlia and Aurora to stay in. Cordelia was
no less on guard against her. That was why the land title was under her name until Keegan was an adult.
This caused some discomfort with Dahlia, but it was just a passing thought since Keegan was her son, and it made no difference
if her name or Keegan's was on it.
Dahlia could not imagine at that time that Keegan would one day dare to kick her out of the house.
Aldor, who did not care if she was recalling her past, turned his head toward the men and ordered them, "Let's begin, then."
Dahlia returned to reality, turned her head toward the group of people, and shouted, "Don't you dare!"
Aldor politely said, "Madam, this was an order from Mr. Kane. Please do not add more to our troubles. You'd have to pay for the
hospital bills if your esteemed self gets hurt from getting roughed up."
He paused a moment before he continued, "Oh, right. Mr. Kane also said that your two million dollars in alimony would be paid
annually on the 11th of every year. The eleventh of this year from now is..."

Aldor looked at his phone and added, "Fifty-seven days. You might need to consider reducing your expenditure. The hospital bill
may not be a lot, but it would be wise to be frugal."
Dahlia was angered until she almost could not breathe. She pointed her trembling fingers at Aldor and said, "Don't you know who
you are? You're just Keegan's lapdog, and yet you dare to speak to me this way?"
Those that came with Aldor could not help but worry that he would take the swearing to heart, even though they would
occasionally make fun of Aldor by saying he bootlicked Keegan at all the right instances.
Jokes aside, Aldor's position in the company was quite high since he understood Keegan's habits and thoughts, was very
capable, and had a very wide range of connections. Keegan was very strict and disciplined when working and may sometimes
omit the worker's feelings. It was a good thing that Aldor was there to fill up that weakness. He would request holidays from
Keegan on behalf of everyone when a big project was just recently completed and would discuss everyone's bonus with Keegan
whenever the project profits exceeded expectations.
