Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49

“You can’t make accusations like that, Mrs. Wood,” said Mrs. Chapman.

She intended to remind Mrs. Wood that Stella was still Dahlia’s daughter–in–law, no matter what. While it was usually acceptable for them to banter around, going overboard was a little inappropriate.

However, Mrs. Wood thought that Mrs. Chapman did not believe her.

“I’m not making accusations. Back then, one of my nephews worked at the Department of Transportation and took part in this accident’s investigation He said the car was badly damaged, and the two supposedly shouldn’t be alive. After they were rescued, it turned out only her mother was badly injured while she only had some cuts.”

She continued, “She doesn’t die easily. Women like her can easily cause the death of the people around her. They kill their husband, their sons.

“Mrs. Wood!” Mrs. Chapman kicked Mrs. Wood under the table when she saw Dahlia’s expression.

Mrs. Wood finally realized that she had inadvertently spoken ill of Dahlia.

Since Dahlia had lost her husband at a young age, bringing up how some women caused the death of their husbands and sons insinuated that Dahlia caused her husband’s death.

Mrs. Wood panicked, and she quickly explained, “Th–That’s not what I meant…”

Dahlia lifted her gaze coolly. “Then, what did you mean?”

Mrs. Wood’s hand froze. She stumbled over her words and could not answer.

Then, Mrs. White smiled and said, “Don’t be angry, Dahlia. Mrs. Wood didn’t mean what she said. You know how that brain of hers is.”

Dahlia took a sip of tea and cynically said, “You’re so naive even at this age. Mr. Wood is a fortunate man.
