Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 776
Dahlia's expression changed minutely. "Stella, don't be ungrateful."
Stella chuckled. "First of all, Aurora has nothing to do with me. Don't pretend you know what happened between the two of us
when we were sisters-in-law. Secondly, she failed to hit me, her real target, and hurt someone else. Do you think I'm dumb? Why
should I plead for her? Thirdly, this is my boss's house, it has nothing to do with your son. You don't have the right to argue about
the house. Fourth-"
Stella paused, and her eyes turned cold. "I'm unable to have children because of you. Did you really think I'm magnanimous
enough to overlook our past grievances?"
With every point Stella made, Dahlia's expression became more disapproving. Dahlia had underestimated Stella. 'After she
divorced and cut ties with the Jewell family, she was supposed to fall to the ground with no hopes of getting up. However, not
only is she not in a mess, her life is getting better. So much better than the past that the once submissive and timid person now
dares speak to me like this!'
Dahlia clutched her hand, took a deep breath, and suppressed her frustration. "What do you want in exchange for your help?’
Stella paused. After they became mother and daughter-in-law for so many years, she could not say she knew Dahlia completely,
but at least fifty percent. Dahlia was an extremely egoistic, selfish, and snobbish person. She would try every trick in the book to
get close to people who had a better family background and were beneficial to her. However, she would not bother to be polite to
those who were not advantageous to her, like Stella and the Jewell family, let alone beg.
Dahlia's abnormal behavior clearly showed how much she spoiled and indulged Aurora. Stella had never seen Dahlia's
protective behavior toward Keegan. Two years ago, Keegan was on a business trip to Sresport and was detained by the local
police after getting into a conflict with a group of local gangsters. The police called Stella to get Keegan bailed out of jail.
Stella went to Dahlia's to get his household registration permit, took the necessary documents, and rushed to Sresport. After she
got Keegan out, he asked, "Why were you the one who came here?" Only then did Stella find out from Aldor that they had given
Dahlia's contact to the police. It was more convenient for Dahlia to come since she already had Keegan's household registration
permit.
Stella was confused since the police had called her as well. After some investigation, they found out that the police had indeed
contacted Dahlia. However, Dahlia replied that she was out of town and gave Stella's number to the police. That was why the

police called Stella.
Stella kept quiet after hearing this. Dahlia was at home playing Mah-Jongg with some ladies when Stella went to get the permit.
Dahlia told the maid to give Stella the permit without asking much when she wanted to do so. Stella thought Dahlia had no idea
that Keegan had been detained.
However, many outsiders were present at the time, so she did not mention Keegan's situation to Dahlia. She did not expect that
Dahlia was aware of Keegan's situation but lied that she was on a trip to play Mah-Jongg.
After they figured everything out, Stella found it unbelievable. Then she thought that maybe it was Dahlia's way of parenting, a
hands-off method. But this was completely different from how she treated Aurora.
When Stella kidnapped Aurora and injured her, Dahlia foamed at the mouth in anger and hit Stella right after she got to the
hospital room. This time, Dahlia begged her after knowing Aurora could not be bailed. 'How could she treat her own flesh and
blood so differently?’
Seeing that Stella did not reply, Dahlia thought there was still room for her to negotiate. "Or you could name a price."
Stella came back to her senses. She looked at Dahlia and said, "You don't even have a million to buy a thumb ring. I don't think
you could afford the price I'd name."
Dahlia's expression distorted with fury as she struggled to control her rage. 'Aurora's still a kid. She'll be ruined if she stays in
that place. If you still want to get back with Keegan, then you shouldn't make things difficult. I don't have to remind you how much
Keegan spoils Aurora, right?"
Stella furrowed her brows. 1
