Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1304
Once Stella put on the dress, she emanated the aura of an elegant and refined lady. She looked at herself in the mirror for some
time and suddenly said, "This dress makes my butt look big."
Everyone was left speechless.
"Can you just be quiet for a moment so I can admire your appearance?" said Felicity.
Meanwhile, Hylda looked ashen as she stepped out of the police station. Sophia's car was waiting not far away. When Hylda
entered the car, Sophia asked urgently, "How did it go, Mom?"
Hylda's expression was strained, "They said they have to wait for all the children's medical results before making a decision. The
school has been ordered not to stay closed, and we can't work in the education industry anymore."
"And Auntie Lydia?"
"Things wouldn't have turned out like this if she wasn't greedy for the money. She deserves to be locked up," said Hylda.
Sophia fell silent. After a while, she whispered, "Mom, did you know Stella donated the land and house? She never intended to
keep it. She wanted it back just to make our lives difficult."
Hylda frowned as she replayed the recent events in her mind. "What's her end game? Why does she keep targeting me?" She
murmured. Something flickered in her mind, but before she could grasp the idea, her phone rang and disrupted her thoughts.
Hylda found it weird that someone was calling her since only a few people knew this number. She answered the call and asked,
"Who is this?"
"Congratulations on getting your wish, Mrs. Jewell," a hoarse voice sounded from the other end of the phone, followed by a few
coughs.
Hylda froze upon hearing that voice. She promptly opened the car door and stepped outside to continue the conversation.
Sophia was taken aback by Hylda's behavior. 'Who's on the other line? Why is Mom being so secretive?' She thought.
Hylda moved to a quiet spot before speaking again, "You didn't call just to congratulate me, did you?"

The person chuckled dryly and said, "There's something I'd like to discuss with you, Mrs. Jewell."
"What's there to discuss? I've treated you well all these years, haven't I?"
"I wouldn't put it that way, Mrs. Jewell. Especially since I've kept your dirty secrets all these years. Remember Rainee's
depression medication, the truth about her miscarriage, her car accident, and that man's identity? Any one of these
secrets could have cost me my life, yet I never said a word about them."
Hylda's expression darkened. She gripped her phone so tightly that her fingertips turned white. She paused and said, "What do
you want?"
The voice on the other end chuckled again. "It's nothing much. I'm not feeling well and would like to 'borrow' some money for my
medical expenses."
'Money? Again?' Hylda composed herself and calmly asked," How much?"
"Two million dollars."
The person's answer left Hylda dumbfounded. "Two million dollars? Do you think that my money grows on trees?!"
"It's not too much for you, is it, Mrs. Jewell?"
"I don't have that much money. I can only give you a hundred thousand dollars at most."
The man's voice turned stern, "A hundred thousand dollars? Are you kidding me?"
Hylda became irritated. My money is tight right now.
Haven't I already given you a significant amount over the years? Plus, didn't we settle everything last time? These one hundred
thousand dollars is purely a kind gesture."
"I don't care if you're in a tough spot. I need the money for surgery," said the man.
Hylda's expression turned darker, "I told you I don't have two million dollars. Where do you expect me to find it?"
"That is none of my concern," the voice sneered. "Didn't one of the Jewell family's daughters marry the wealthiest man in Rivera?
I'll ask her for the money if you won't give it to me. I bet the secrets I've kept are worth more than two million dollars to her."
