Chapter 401
Parental favoritism could be very extreme.
"Since you think it's Keegan's fault, why don't you bring Sophia to our house and confront Keegan to
see if I said a single lie to frame her?" Stella said.
Albert was taken aback and glanced at Sophia, whose face had darkened beside him. He began to
doubt what she had told him.
He took a deep breath and said in a soft voice, "HI investigate it."
"Wait a minute," Stella stopped him and cut to the chase. "Dad, when are you planning to transfer the
donation to the welfare home?"
Albert paused for a moment and pursed his lips before he replied, "The company's revenue has
declined this year, and we can't support the welfare home anymore. I've already contacted the city

Stella's expression grew solemn. "The funds for the welfare home come from Mom's share of the
company's property. Even if revenue continues to decline, can't the company afford a monthly donation
of a hundred thousand dollars? If you can't manage it, why not consult a lawyer to transfer Mom's
shares to me? I can take on the responsibility of supporting the welfare home each month."
Albert's face immediately turned sour upon hearing this. "Your mother's medical expenses are tens of
thousands per month, and the cost is nearly tens of millions per year. Do you think our family is as rich
as the Kane family? Just paying for her medical expenses is already difficult enough for me. How can I
have spare money to support any welfare home?"
Stella sneered and thought, 'He didn't even mention the transfer of shares. If the company was in a
state where it really couldn't afford to donate the money, he would have quickly passed this hot potato
to me! The only reason he's reluctant to give me those shares is because there's profit.
Rainee worked so hard to get those incriminating evidence against Albert, and he signed an almost
clean break agreement. How can I watch him and his bastard child steal the company's wealth? If he
won't give it to me, fine, I'll take it myself!'
Upon seeing Stella remain silent for a while, Albert said, "Stella, your mother's health is the priority.
We're already struggling to take care of ourselves. Do we have the energy to worry about the welfare
home's survival? This is a matter for the government to handle. Do ordinary people like us have to
worry about it? I know you used to volunteer at the welfare home with your mother and have an
emotional connection with it, but we should consider our own abilities."
Stella thought to herself, 'When he got tax exemptions for his company by donating to the welfare
home, why didn't he say that it was the government's matter? He uses what benefits him and discards
what doesn't. How selfish! Why does he have to be my father?'
When Stella came out of the rooftop, Keegan had already finished tidying up and was in the foyer
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmputting on his tie.
"You're going out?" Stella asked him, as she thought to herself, 'It's already past ten. If Keegan is going
to work, he wouldn't go this late. At this hour, he'll mostly be in the study working.'
"Yeah," Keegan said flatly. "There's a recruitment talk at Trinity University this afternoon that I need to
attend."
"Recruitment talk..." Stella's expression changed slightly.
Suddenly, she approached Keegan and took the tie out of his hand, then wrapped it around his neck
while standing on tiptoes. As she tied the knot, she asked, "Can I come with you?"
Keegan looked down at her and asked, "You want to go?"
"Trinity University is also my alma mater. I haven't been back in so many years, and I have nothing to
do today. So, I want to visit the place," Stella said softly with a gentle voice and her eyelashes cast a
faint shadow on her cheeks. "Take me with you, okay?"
