Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 145

Chapter 145

Stella did not answer Albert’s calls. Finally, after more than an hour, Albert asked someone to remove the

search entry, but a new one popped up after the old one was deleted. The trending searches on the

matter were like a ticking time bomb; there was no way to suppress it.

Albert paced back and forth when he thought of what would happen to him if he did not settle the

problem. “Is she still not picking up?” Hylda put a cup of warm milk on the coffee table and asked. Albert

frowned, shook his head, and said, “No, she’s not.”

Hylda glanced at the time and said, “She should be awake by now. Is she not answering on purpose?”

“But she has no reason not to answer my calls.”

“Maybe she felt guilty and dared not pick up,” Hylda snorted coldly. “I mean, you called and told her to

ask Keegan to talk to Vermont yesterday. Don’t you think it’s too much of a coincidence that something

like this happened today? ‘Merchant gave Hermes bag as a gift.’ He only gifted her the bag two to three

days after her purchase. Who does that and parades it around on a flag?”

Albert frowned. He also found the whole incident strange but believed Stella had no reason to do so.

“You’re overthinking. Stella is the only heiress in our family. Why would she want to sabotage her own

family? What benefit would she reap from it?” Albert pursed his lips and said.

But Hylda dismissed him, “Don’t forget who gave birth to her. She is just as ruthless as Rainee Spade.

Did you forget how she questioned you the last time we met in the parking lot? If she knew what

happened back then, she would rather die in honor than live in disgrace with that personality of hers. You

say she’s the heiress of the Jewell family, but she’s also the daughter- in-law of the Kanes. If Keegan

becomes Vinci Rivera’s successor, she will be the lady of the family. Do you really believe she would

want anything to do with the Jewell family then?” Albert’s face darkened. He had clearly thought about

that as well. Stella had not been close to him since she was a child. Their relationship became worse

after what happened between him and Rainee. It was only when she got married to Keegan that there

was an apparent change in their connection.

However, in the past two years, Albert had felt that Stella was gradually getting out of his control; she

became more dismissive of his requests. He even wondered if she had found out something that she

was not supposed to. ‘If she is really going to be the lady of the house in the Kane family, what would

become of me?’

Just as Albert was thinking about it, his phone rang. It was Stella.

He signaled Hylda to be quiet and answered the phone.

“Hey, dad. I just woke up and saw that you called.” Stella’s voice was a little horse; it indeed sounded like

she had just gotten out of bed. “I was about to call and tell you that Mr. Snyder agreed to do it.”

Stella managed to stop Albert’s suspicion of her with one sentence. “He did?”

“Well, Keegan came home last night and told me that he had to go for drinks with Mr. Snyder to get him

to agree. He came home when it was well past midnight. I wanted to tell you there

and then, but I was afraid of disturbing your sleep. So, I decided to call you first thing in the morning.

Who knew that you’d be the one who called me first.”

“Mr. Snyder said he would ask Mr. Anne to return the item with the shopping invoice. He also explained

to the manager that a refund would be issued if there were no problems with the goods.”
