Chapter 596
Dahlia pressed her lips together and said, "| knew Grandma invited you. | just thought since you were having a hard time in yourfamily, you probably wouldn't be in the mood to come. Well, | underestimated your ability to handle your emotions."
Stella cast a look at her. 'She could have simply said that she misjudged my brazenness. Yet, she was tactful in her delivery."Stella replied, "I initially wasn't in the mood. But, Keegan kept calling me, and it drove me insane. So, | decided to show somerespect to him. After all, we were once husband and wife. Although | don't have to be considerate to you, | do have to showKeegan some consideration.”
Dahlia stared at Keegan with a stern face. Keegan did not attempt to refute it as if he had confirmed everything she said.Keegan's behavior jarred Dahlia's nerves. ‘What a spineless person!’
"Keegan is just being filial. He didn't want to upset his grandma on such a joyous occasion." Dahlia hinted that Keegan's phonecalls were for Grandma's sake and that Stella should not think so highly of herself.
Stella smirked. "He sure is filial. He even gave me a necklace because he was afraid that | wouldn't come," she said as shetouched the red diamond on her neck. "The charm of a 47 million was quite attractive."novelbin
Keegan looked at her in silence, watching her as she blabbered on and bragged. Dahlia was taken aback, and her expressionturned dark. The group of wives behind them went into a frenzy. They were discussing how genuine the diamond necklace onStella's neck was, but now she suddenly revealed the price. Along with that, Keegan was the one who gifted it.’ Didn't the two ofthem divorce? Or, did it turn out all in vain? And, Stella was completely different after the divorce. She used to be all timid andsubmissive around Dahlia and never dared to contradict her. How did she change completely after the divorce?’ The crowdthought.
No matter how stupid one was, everyone could tell that Dahlia and Stella were both aggressive in their remarks. However, it wasclear that Dahlia was slightly inferior. The 47-million-dollar necklace itself had knocked Dahlia out. In front of the 47-million-dollarworth necklace, her 7-million- dollar ring had instantly lost its luster.
Dahlia clutched her hand and suppressed her anger. "You left the marriage with nothing. It's normal for him to compensate you.Forty to fifty million is not a big deal for the Kane family.”
Stella turned her head and looked at Keegan. "Your mom said it's not a big deal. If that's the case, could you give me a fewmore?"
Keegan thought, 'Why do you need so much? To use it as a dog chain?”Keegan glanced at her and said coolly, "Alright."The group of wives was all speechless. Dahlia was so angry that she felt as if she was about to spit out blood. However, Dahlia
restrained her rage." Keegan, Aurora and Jackson had gone to wish your grandma a happy birthday. You should go too. Don'tmiss the timing and make a fool of yourself.”
Keegan looked at Stella and said, ‘Let's go together."Stella said lightly, "You are the eldest grandchild, while I'm just an outsider. You go first. I'll go when it's my turn."
Keegan frowned. He was not comfortable with leaving Stella there. Dahlia's scheme had gone beyond his expectation, andStella would be at a disadvantage if she stayed there.
Stella softened her voice to coax him. "Hurry up and go. I'll wait for you." Stella was worried that Keegan would defend hismother if he stayed.
