Chapter 456
Hylda gave Albert a glance. Rainee was still his wife, after all, and they married under the freedom of
love. Even if the process they went through was unhappy, at least they used to truly love each other.
Yet, he dared not ask this question now.
‘Should I go or not? Isn't this nonsense?' Hylda thought.
She suppressed her emotions and said lowly, "Of course, you should go. Stella's still your daughter.
With her mother passing away, the Kane family has someone visit. If the Kane family came, many of
Rivera's elite would want to go there. You're Stella's dad. If you don't go, the others will look at the
Jewell family as a joke."
Albert then said worriedly, "We've talked about this. What if Stella makes a scene during the funeral?
Then it wouldn't end easily."
"She wouldn't," Hylda said nonchalantly. "Stella respects Rainee a lot. She would never make a scene
with you at Rainee's funeral. Her mother would be turning in her grave."
Albert pursed his lips. Hylda looked at the man before her. How could she not know what he had in his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtheart?
The incident about his illegitimate child was just exposed, and he was already afraid that he would be
the butt of the joke if he went there by himself. However, he had to make this trip. If he did not go, how
could he make the mother and child's identities official?
"Albert, you don't need to worry. I'll accompany you there then. I'll wait for you outside. If something
happens, I'll endure it with you," Hylda said.
Albert’s thoughts drifted for a moment. This sentence reminded him of Rainee in the past. Whenever
the company was in a crisis, she would be at his side, comforting him when he was knee-deep in the
mess.
She would say, "It's fine. At worst, we'd be broke. If we can earn it back the first time, we can earn it
back the second time. Even if the sky falls and your plans fail, I'll always be there."
"Albert, sleep early. We will go there slightly earlier tomorrow and send Rainee off on her last journey,"
Hylda continued.
Albert came back to his senses. His throat constricted, and he answered in a low tone.
It was a flight for eight in the morning. Keegan rode a car to the airport at half past six. When he
reached the airport and waited for the flight, he could not resist turning on his phone. When the cell
phone connected to the internet, his Facebook app immediately popped up with numerous messages.
His eyes scanned the screen once and he noticed that Stella did not send him any messages. He could
not conceal his upset. Just as he was about to turn his phone off, one of Vermont's messages popped
up. [Keegan, if you don't fucking come back now, you're gonna lose your wife!]
Keegan's expression changed, and he immediately gave Stella a call. She did not pick up.
Keegan quickly called Vermont. Vermont had just arrived at the funeral parlor. He saw Keegan's return
call and almost cursed. He quickly accepted the call.
Keegan said, "What do you mean by that message you sent?"
Vermont said through gritted teeth, "Your mother-in-law just died. She's being buried today. If you don't
return now, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your wife anymore!"
Keegan's heart trembled, and he said thoughtfully, "When did this happen?"
The night before yesterday. She had a fever and passed away. Your wife had been acting odd these
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfew days. You should come back right now. Her mother will be buried at two in the afternoon." When
saying this, he could not resist complaining. "Where have you been running off to these few days? For
heaven's sake, leave a way for people to contact you. You caused this whole mess, and your wife
definitely assumed you went missing on purpose."
Keegan pursed his lips. "I'll tell you one day. What about Stella? Let her answer the phone."
"I wouldn't dare mess with her. It's best that you come back as soon as possible. I spoke up for you
yesterday, and she said if you don't come back, then should her mother not be buried? I didn't dare
answer her. It won't be enough if you spoke with her over the phone now. She might not even answer
your call. The main thing is that you should hurry up and come back. If you don't make it back in time
for your mother-in-law's funeral, I'm telling you... Based on my understanding of women, she'll hold this
against you for the rest of your life!"
Keegan took a deep breath and said, "You help arrange the venue. I'll get off the plane at ten minutes
past ten."
"Alright, you hurry a bit more," Vermont urged.
After hanging up the phone, Vermont saw Marshall pass him a bottle of water that he had taken.
"Who were you calling?" Marshall asked.
