Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 97
Stella really wanted to splash her drink on Bella’s face. To be honest, three years of marriage without kids was nothing special.
The fact that Dahlia went all over the place for a doctor to force her into having a boy was revolting. Dahlia made it a widely
known piece of news. Apparently, people would not say anything about it. However, they would gossip that she could not have
children behind the scenes. This was why even though they were married for many years, people still shoved girls into Keegan.
Everyone began to inquire as soon as Bella raised her head. Evidently, they weren’t concerned about Stella’s pregnancy. Since
everyone knew that she could not get pregnant, all they wanted to know was if there was a joke to laugh about.
Bella wanted to enrage Stella and make her lose her temper out of embarrassment. However. Cordelia was most concerned
about the Kane family’s reputation. ‘Would Cordelia protect Stella if she lost her temper on such an occasion and brought shame
to the Kane family? If Cordelia rejected her, how long could Stella stay in the Kane family?‘ Bella was expecting things to play out
this way.
Unexpectedly, Stella was not provoked. She even smiled at the crowd and said, “We will tell it when the time comes. Some
things would be jinxed if said in advance.”
The crowd was stunned at her seemingly response to the pregnancy. After all, there was indeed a tradition to keep unstable
pregnancy a secret during the first three months. Keegan was sipping tea not far away. He could hear what Stella said, but he
did not express his opinion about it. This led the crowd to confirm Stella’s pregnancy.
The jokes turned into congratulations, and Bella turned green with anger, as Stella became the center of attention. Bella
pretended to congratulate Stella with the crowd. “Congratulations to Mrs. Kane. You finally got what you wanted. I really can’t tell
when you’re wearing high heels and makeup.”
Bella was close to directly pointing out that Stella was lying. Stella, however, was not an easy target either. She took a glance at
Bella and sneered, “As an unmarried woman, you seem to know quite a lot about pregnant women, Ms. Young. I would have
thought that you experienced being pregnant before.”
Bella was shocked and nervously stared at Keegan. However, Keegan was not even looking at her. Keegan had been setting his
attention on Stella even though he was chatting with others. His gaze was dark with waves of emotions. Stella had no time to
pay attention to Keegan and found that Bella’s reaction was odd. ‘Why is she so nervous?‘

Just as Stella wanted to probe more about it, a voice interrupted, “Ms. Young was just concerned. Don’t you think that that was
something very rude to be said, Mrs. Kane?”
Stella was startled and looked over to see Mrs. Chapman speaking. She was the one who won all her money during the Mah–
Jongg game at Dahlia’s place and ended up defeated when Keegan won all the money back. Mrs. Chapman was good friends
with Dahlia. She was smooth and slick in establishing social relations, and she was a senior. The ladies were respectful to her.
Mrs. Chapman was all things to all people. It was surprising that she helped a celebrity and publicly accused the Kane family’s
eldest daughter–in–law.
Stella knew that Mrs. Chapman was not helping Bella. Others would not be sure, but Stella
knew her hidden intention. Mr. Chapman once knocked up a celebrity before. Mr. Chapman’s family had a preference for sons
and had been looking forward to one, but Mrs. Chapman gave birth to three daughters. She was worried that the celebrity would
threaten her position by giving birth to a son. Hence, she took the initiative to negotiate with the celebrity. In the end, the celebrity
agreed to abort the child for ten million.
Mrs. Chapman looked shiny on the outside, but she did not hold the purse strings. She did not have the money. Her own family
was rich in assets, but after her parents passed away, she was left with one property. The rest were all inherited by her two
brothers. Besides, she was not on good terms with her siblings because of her husband. Therefore, no one was willing to lend
her the money, so she borrowed the money from Dahlia.
The celebrity took the money and sent her the bill for the abortion the next day. Mrs. Chapman was worried, so she asked
someone to check the abortion for her. In the end, she found out that the abortion was not only fake but so was the pregnancy.
