Chapter 168
Stella pushed his hand away and said, “You still remember that you’re my dad? If you could believe in the words of strangers, why couldn’t you believe in the words of your own daughter? If I had said I had sent the item, I would have already sent it. If you suffered humiliation from Dahlia, what makes you think you can throw them back at me?”
Albert did not believe her statement at all. “If she did receive the item, why would she have told me she didn’t get it? Previously, we told you to mention the project at Cavalry City to Keegan, and you keep putting it off. Did you think that by having Keegan as your patron, the Jewell family would be pointless to you? Did you assume the wind would sweep away the yearly payment of millions of dollars for your mother’s hospital bills? In the end, who were these things I told you to do for? If the Jewell family can’t stand on its own two feet, do you think the Kane family would still respect you?!”
Albert spoke with so much grandiose as if the things he did were done for the sake of Stella and her mother.
‘Does he think that the money and status he acquired through this means would make the Kane family think highly of him? The Kane family would only despise him more!’ Stella thought.
“I have already said this. I have already sent the item. If you don’t believe me, then it would be unnecessary for you to entrust me with any task in the future. In terms of ass kissing, I am definitely not as skilled as you are,” Stella retorted.
“You…” Albert’s anger flared up again. At the same time, a few people walked out into the balcony. He abruptly suppressed the words he was about to spit back.
Stella, on the other hand, just left.
In the sick ward, Vermont mentioned the recent incident of Stella crying due to having someone else mistaken for Keegan’s funeral. He was rolling on the floor laughing.
Keegan furrowed his brows and said, “That’s quite enough.”
Vermont withheld his laughter and teased Keegan, “You are now considered to have fully experienced having someone crying at your funeral. How do you feel?”
