However, the machine beeped after the card got swiped.
The staff member said, "Your card got frozen.”
Stella paled slightly. Then, she pursed her lips and took out a different card.
"This one's also frozen."
Stella took out her third card, fourth card... When she finally tried all of her cards, her expression hadcompletely darkened.
All of the accounts under her name had gotten frozen by the bank.
‘Is this Keegan's doing? No. If it were Keegan, he'd only freeze his subcards. Why would he freeze myown cards? Then, who is it? Who has this ability?’ she wondered.
Stella racked her brain and set the target on Dahlia.
"Are you paying or not? Hurry up."
The dependents of other patients who were queueing behind her again urged her. Stella hurriedlyapologized.
"Sorry."
Then, she grabbed her cards off the desk and went aside. Stella first called the few banks where sheapplied for her cards. They gave her vague answers and said someone took relevant procedures andapplied for an asset freeze. However, they did not have the liberty to disclose who the specific personwas.
‘Someone they do not have the liberty to disclose; it's most likely Dahlia,’ she thought. Stella clenchedher fingers and called Dahlia's number. It did not take long before someone picked up.
"Hello?"
Dahlia's icy voice sounded from the other end of the line.
Stella suppressed her emotions and said in a low voice, "Mom, it's me."novelbin
Dahlia asked nonchalantly, "What is it?”
Stella pursed her lips.
"When I was paying the hospital bills, the counter said my bank cards got frozen."
"Oh," Dahlia said indifferently. She continued, “I froze them."
Stella's heart sank.
"Why'd you do that?”
Dahlia laughed icily.
"Stella Jewell. You and Keegan will get a divorce once he returns from his business trip. So I have toprevent you from transferring assets, right? It now appears that being cautious is right. He just left forhis business trip, and you're rushing to transfer the money in the account to your mother. Do you thinkthe Kane family does charity work?"
Stella did not even have the time to dwell on how Dahlia found out that the two were getting a divorcewhen Keegan returned.
However, her blood ran cold when she heard Dahlia say, "prevent you from transferring assets.” In aninstant, she flew into a rage.
"You can freeze Keegan's sub-cards, but who are you to freeze my own cards? I earned money the inmy cards myself; it has nothing to do with the Kane family!"
"Watch your tone when you're speaking, Stella Jewell! What do you mean you? You're insolent!" Dahliasaid angrily.
She continued, “Your money? What money do you have? From your clothes to what you're using,which one wasn't bought using Keegan's or the Kane family's money?"
When Dahlia thought of the bruise Stella caused on Aurora's face, how Stella had snatched away theopportunity to organize the birthday banquet, and how Keegan even limited her expenses because ofStella, she was furious.
"Who knows if the money in your card is from Keegan's bank account? It's not like you've neverbackstabbed us while living on us. Since you two are divorcing, what's the matter with applying forasset protection when I'm Keegan's mother?"
Stella's lips trembled in rage.
"Dahlia Crosby, do you know the money you froze is the money to save my mother's life?"
Dahlia snorted sardonically, "The money I froze is the Kane family's money. If anything happens to yourmother, it's because she has bad luck and has a daughter like you."
After Dahlia finished talking, she hung up. Stella paled. The next moment, Zayla called.
"Stella, your mother can't make it anymore. Quickly come up!"
