Chapter 47
Albert spoke sanctimoniously.
‘Others have lovers because they seek the thrill, but he’s doing it because of his comatose wife. He has no choice but to look for other women since he can’t satisfy himself. It’s as if his actions can be justified after he changes the reason. Humans are not animals. What does he mean by biological needs? Or, are men this shameless in the face of infidelity and shirk the blame to women?’ wondered Stella.
“If your mother was alive and well, I would’ve never gone to find other women. She and I went through thick and thin together to establish the company. Our relationship can’t possibly be replaced by others.”
‘If he hadn’t hastily wanted to divorce my mother soon after her accident, I would have believed his nonsense! Besides, would he care if my mother’s dead or alive if I weren’t married to Keegan and still useful to the Jewell family? He hasn’t divorced my mother only because he’s pinning me down in the name of taking care of her,‘ Stella thought.
Stella had little emotions on her face.
She merely asked, “What’s that woman’s name?”
Albert froze momentarily. “What her name is doesn’t matter. I won’t see her if you don’t like her.”
He obviously did not want to continue the topic because he quickly changed it and asked, “Did you send the things I told you to previously?”
Stella pursed her lips and answered.
“Mhm.”
“You came out with Keegan?”
“Nope. With a friend.”
Albert frowned, “You’re a married person; don’t just fool around all day long. You should use the time to think of a way to impress Keegan instead. You’ve been married for years now, yet you don’t even have a child. How will you make the Kane family like you?”
