Chapter 458
The mess that was the Jewell family had already been talked about in the social circle like crazy.
However, it was Rainee's funeral today. Although everyone wanted to, they did not say much. As the
saying goes, "De mortuis nil nisi bene", only the good should remain for the dead. There was no need
to cause a ruckus at other people's funerals.
Yet Trevor seemed to not care for this. As soon as he entered, he heard Albert reprimanding Stella and
could not help but feel bewildered.
Based on the information Trevor had, besides the assertive personality of Rainee, she was actually a
very outstanding woman.
'Why did she pick this heartless, ungrateful thing for a husband?’ Trevor thought to himself.
Albert's figure froze, and he turned around, slightly irritated. He saw the unfamiliar face of a man and
said with furrowed brows, "I'm talking to my daughter. Does an outsider need to butt in?"
As Trevor was about to open his mouth, he heard Stella say, "Albert, it's my mother's funeral today. If
you're here for her last moments, shut up and light an incense. If you're here to make a scene, you can

Albert's expression immediately turned ugly, and he said through gritted teeth, "How can you talk to me
like this? I’m your father!"
Stella pulled the corner of her lips into a sarcastic smile. She said with a very low voice, "Don't insult
that word. I don't want to argue with you here, but if you ruin my mother's funeral, I'll make your
children suffer a pain worse than death. If you don't believe me, you can try."
After saying this, she paused and lightly spat out a few words, "Hillbank Primary School, right?"
Albert looked into Stella's eyes. His whole back was riddled with goosebumps, and he was shocked to
the core. Stella actually knew he had a son and even knew the school the kid was studying at!
Remembering the methods she used to deal with Sophia, Albert could not help but feel terrified. His
expression was a mixture of rage and shock, but he dared not open his mouth. With a sullen look, lit an
incense before standing to the side.
Trevor passed a few pieces of incense to Jaylene. Both of them bowed and slotted the incense before
walking toward Stella.
"Our condolences, Mrs. Kane."
Stella lightly nodded her head. "Thank you."
Jaylene looked up at the woman before her. She was so refined that she seemed like she had walked
out of a painting. The languish expression could not falter the beauty of her features. Jaylene was
studying fashion design. She had seen her fair share of supermodels and celebrities, but this was the
first time she had seen anyone as stunning as Stella at first sight, i
She walked to the side and scanned the scene. Just as she wondered why there was no member of
the Kane family present, she heard a commotion outside.
The Kane family had arrived. Once the car had stopped, Baldwin came down and opened the car door.
An old lady exited the car and hurriedly walked into the funeral parlor.
Behind her, Dahlia came down the car and quickly followed the old lady. Dahlia held onto her and said
in a low tone, "Cordelia, you should walk slowly."
The old madam flung her hand away and said seriously, "It's the mother-in- law's funeral, yet you come
here now and didn't help Stella arrange it?" There were many people outside. Dahlia was being

reprimanded by the old madam right in her face and she immediately felt embarrassed. She quietly
explained, "Stella didn't inform me beforehand. I also just knew about it."
"If you had usually cared just a little and checked in once in a while, you wouldn't have known until the
last minute!" Cordelia was furious. "When your parents passed away, what did your grandfather and I
do? After so many years, you've shown no growth! Such a major event happened and you allowed
Stella to endure it alone. Do you even have the dignity as an elder?"
Cordelia was such a sharp person. She had interacted with Stella for many years and naturally knew
how thoughtful she was. With such a huge incident as her mother passing away, why would she not
have informed the Kane family if there were no other reason? The incident had occurred too abruptly.
Cordelia had not had time to look into the ins and outs of what happened. Still, it did not stop her from
speculating who the perpetrator was.
Dahlia's expression switched between flushed and ashen. She gripped her hands tightly and could not
say a word. Cyrene had enough of seeing Dahlia's sorry state and proceeded to hold Cordelia.
"Mother, you should cool down. Dahlia had been quite busy recently and may have neglected it.
I ordered some wreaths and elegiac couplets and I've already sent them beforehand. We should go in
to see Stella first. The child had been through a lot these few days and it's quite pitiful."
