Chapter 134
The look on Albert’s face turned ugly. “Mr. Anne, I have no idea that this took place. I’ll ask my daughter
about it. I’m sure that it’s just a misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding? What could it be? My daughter explicitly told me that Sophia instigated her to do it.
I’ll give you two options now. Think of a way to return the bangle or pay me back the money! Otherwise,
you’ll be in big trouble!”
Then, Henry hung up the phone.
Albert’s face darkened as he put down his phone. Then, he lifted his head and asked Sophia, What
happened? A bangle that cost thirty million?”
Sophia cursed inwardly at Xianna before telling Albert about what had happened that day. Obviously, she
omitted the part where she hinted to Xianna to buy that bangle.

Then, she said pitifully, “I admit that I wasn’t thoughtful enough. I shouldn’t have followed Ms. Anne into
the shop when I knew that Stella didn’t like me. That shop belongs to Mr. Snyder, and he’s a very good
friend of Stella’s husband. Mr. Anne did not dare to offend Mr. Snyder or the Kane family, and that’s why
he blamed me for everything. Who do you think I am to decide what Ms. Anne should spend on?”
The woman sitting beside Sophia handed her a piece of tissue as she consoled her, “This isn’t your fault.
Why would she spend thirty million on a bangle just to prove something?”
That woman was Albert’s secretary, Hylda White. She was the person walking with Albert when Stella
bumped into them at the basement parking previously.
She had her loungewear on as she sat on the seat that supposedly belonged to Rainee, as if she was
Albert’s wife.
Albert frowned and glared at her. “What’s the point of talking about this now? That man clearly just wants
my daughter to pay for what his daughter bought!”
“Why do we have to listen to him?” Hylda scoffed. “Who does he think he is to make us clean up his
daughter’s mess? He only got what he has today because his sister chose the right husband! He really
thinks he’s something just because people address him as Mr. Anne!” “You’re such an ignorant woman. I
still need Henry’s help to get me that piece of land in Northon, and the bid hasn’t even started yet! He’ll
probably ditch me if I don’t get this right for him now. I can’t miss out on a project that’s worth billions
again.”
Hylda was puzzled. “Is Henry willing to give somebody else such a profitable project?” Albert sneered.
“Of course not. However, he’s unable to get himself involved. His brother-in- law is the head of this
project, so he can’t be a part of it due to legal reasons.”
Albert gifted Henry presents worth more than ten million just to secure that project. However, Henry just
could not get enough!

have to pay up?”
Albert was not willing to do that at all. So, he picked up his phone and said, “I’ll give Stella a call and ask
if she can get Mr. Kane to help us out.”
Hylda lifted the edge of her mouth without saying anything.
Stella’s phone rang as soon as she got into the car.
She did not feel like picking it up after seeing Albert’s name.
She knew that Albert would only call her if something bad happened.
However, she also knew that Albert was tenacious, and he would only stop calling once she picked up.
So, she had no choice but to accept the call, “Hello, dad.”
“Stella, are you okay? Why did it take you so long to pick up?”
“I was in the washroom and couldn’t answer my phone. Why did you call?” Stella lied.
“It’s nothing serious. Are you with Keegan now?”
“He’s at work. You should call his office’s number if you’re looking for him.”
