Chapter 190
Those few contracts were from companies that the Kane family had linked him up with, so he could not help but suspect that Keegan did that on purpose because he knew something.
‘Whether he knows or not, the biases in his words were just too obvious. No matter how cold Keegan is toward Stella, he won’t stand by idly and watch her get wronged,’ thought Albert. Albert felt a little annoyed.
‘I should’ve known. But, how could Stella come to the jewelry exhibition alone when Keegan’s still injured?’ he thought.
At that thought, Albert immediately changed his tone.
“What are you saying, Mr. Snyder? Stella’s my only daughter, so I obviously love her. It’s just that Sophia was adopted. I feel bad that she’s all alone with no one to rely on, so I can’t help. but sometimes take better care of her. Since you’re not a father yet, you obviously wouldn’t know how hard it is to be one.”
Vermont smiled. Suddenly, he said, “I heard Sophia got a new car a while ago. It cost around 2 million. Keegan, I recall that your father-in-law gave your wife a little Cayenne as a part of the dowry when you,two got married back then. How much did it cost again?”
“890 thousand,” Keegan responded coolly.
Stella was a little surprised.
‘Keegan usually doesn’t even bother looking at that car, which was a part of my dowry, but he actually knows its price,’ she thought.
Albert had a bad feeling the moment Vermont brought up the car. As expected, he heard. Vermont say the very next moment, “The car that’s a part of your biological daughter’s dowry costs 890 thousand dollars, but a random car for your adopted daughter costs around 2 million? Mrs. Jewell’s been in a coma for six years, and you don’t pity your own daughter for not having a mother at a young age. Instead, you made your own daughter suffer because of an orphan. You’re right; I don’t understand.”
No one else spoke up for Sophia after hearing Vermont’s words.
Not only was Sophia wearing her sister’s three-million-dollar dowry and driving a more expensive car compared to her sister, she even threw shade at her sister online despite having all these advantages. What Sophia did was practically bite the hand that fed her.
“The incident was so trending so much online. Turns out, she was just biting the hand that fed her.”
“When Keegan got married, he sent carts and carts of dowry to the Jewell family. I heard it cost nearly a billion. Albert only gave a car worth less than a million? How did he have the cheek to do so?”
