Chapter 591
Dahlia's expression indeed did become much better. Her ideal daughter-in- law had to be a prestigious heiress such as the one
in the Saun family, i
She initially had already looked down on Stella's background for coming from a commoner. Now that she knew Stella was
actually the illegitimate daughter born from Rainee's disloyalty, she felt even more disgust for her deep down.
Thankfully, Keegan had finally divorced her. When the marriage union between him and Jaylene was successful, he would have
the Saun family as his support. Then, he would eventually understand Dahlia's well intentions.
"Are the fireworks ready?" Dahlia asked.
Mrs. Chapman nodded and said, "The custom-made fireworks contain Cordelia's portrait and the birthday wishes. I can ensure
that this will be the only one made especially for tonight and definitely please Madam Kane Sr."
"You do things so properly," Dahlia praised.
Mrs. Chapman said humbly, "You have helped me so many times, Dahlia. This is a given. About Erick's matter, could you..."
Dahlia paused and said, "Keegan had recently just divorced. There are some things I cannot mention for now. You can still rest
easy. After the moment passed, I will definitely resolve it for you."
The actual situation was that, besides Keegan stopping her from withdrawing money every month from her account, the
production line of the Crosby family had encountered some issues. This led to the shrinkage of the dividend that she had.
However, Dahlia thought that all of this would be temporary. Keegan was married to Stella for more than three years. One would
develop feelings even when they kept a dog, so Keegan was expected to still have some anger. It would be fine after a while.
She did not believe that a low-status woman could withstand their relationship as kin by blood.
Since Dahlia had said so, Mrs. Chapman's heart was slightly at ease.
"Aurora, have you gotten skinnier recently?" Someone asked.
Aurora wore a tiny red gown and made a princess braid. Due to being beaten to a pulp by Stella before this, she was unable to
eat initially. She had to nurse her injuries for quite a long time. Now that her wounds were healed, her physique had significantly
slimmed down.
Her face, which used to be chubby in the past, had slimmed down. And, it made her features much sharper. She seemed more
and more similar to Dahlia. Dahlia used to be a beauty during her younger days, so Aurora's looks naturally would not be that
terrible. It was Cordelia's birthday banquet today, so Aurora had dolled herself up because Marshall wanted to come.
Aurora rubbed her face and asked in a low tone, "Is it that obvious?"
"It's very obvious," Aurora's female friend answered. "You look even more gorgeous now. As long as Stella doesn't come, you
would definitely outshine everyone."
Aurora's smile immediately was about to fall. Stella was a true nightmare to the socialite's circle. If she did not come, the
socialites would be able to show off during these types of occasions. When she did come, she was guaranteed to outshine
everyone.
Regardless of her delicate features, her skin was also fair. Whoever stood next to her would become a foil to her and look darker,
less fashionable, and lacking in grace.
Someone spat out, "She would dare to come here? Doesn't she think it's embarrassing?"
"When she wasn't divorced, she would flaunt herself everywhere. When she participates in a banquet, she badly wants to hang
every piece of jewelry in order to brag to no end. Now that she is divorced and is an illegitimate daughter, I'm afraid she wouldn't
even have a suitable piece of jewelry to attend this banquet. Based on her love for boasting, she wouldn't have the dignity to
show herself, right?" Another person ranted.
"The Jewell family is truly amazing. Both sides were cheating on each other and having an illegitimate daughter in the mix. They
are truly a match made in heaven," Someone continued.
"Thankfully, your brother had the foresight to divorce her. It would be disgusting to be stuck with a wife like her," Aurora's close
friend said.
Aurora’s lips pulled into a smile while her gaze was filled with smugness." Then, you should put in some effort. The spot for my
sister-in-law is still vacant."
Her female friends were filled with glee, and one of them replied, "Then, we will still need you to pull some strings for us."
As they were speaking, Aurora saw Jaylene holding onto Trevor when they appeared at the scene. Trevor whispered a few
words to Jaylene before taking a glass of alcohol and walking to the men's side.
Jaylene was in a light purple satin dress, and she stood majestically with her slim physique. A curtain of long black hair draped
on her shoulders. Her gaze was clear and innocent while her dress was very simple and elegant.
