Female Novel
Chapter 829
Chapter 829If Felicity did not observe Stella's face, her soft tone alone was convincing enough that she was moved by Albert's words.Albert stuttered when he heard ‘publicly announce’.
"H-How do you plan to announce it?" “At least go through proper adoption application procedures, publish it on the media, andset a will. With all that. I'd at least get a share of the inheritance when you pass away.”
Albert's face was a little stiff. He only wanted to use Stella to create connections, not to give her rights to her inheritance.novelbin
"Stella, isn't it too early for us to discuss this? It's not very appropriate if | were to write my will when I'm still quite healthy.Besides, aren't you making it difficult for me since adults can't go through the adoption application? Don't worry, even withoutthese two, | will still treat you as my own biological daughter. In the public's eyes, you'd be the daughter of the Jewell family, mydaughter. It doesn't matter if you remarry Keegan or other families. The Jewell family will always be there for you."
Stella immediately realized the purpose of Albert's call as soon as he mentioned Keegan. Albert, who was self-serving wouldnever adopt her without a reason. He must have heard the rumors from somewhere. Stella meekly responded, "How can | trustyour words if there's no sincerity behind them?"
Albert frowned, knowing that she was not easy to fool. She would not be convinced if he doesn’t pay a price. "Of course, I'msincere about this.
Didn't your grandfather leave a villa that was mortgaged? I've already redeemed the mortgage, and it's currently under yourmother's name. Once you remarry to... another family, | will pass on the property over to you in my will. Of course, there wouldbe more | will give you once you become my adopted daughter.”
Stella tightened her grip as she softly asked, "Will Hylda agree to something as important as a deed transfer? You won't blame iton me if she had a miscarriage over this matter, will you?"
Albert was flabbergasted. "Miscarriage?" “Isn't Hylda pregnant? Why are you hiding such joyous news?”
Albert's face turned serious as he asked, "Pregnant? Who told you that?"
Stella acted surprised and replied, "Don't you know? My friend personally saw her visiting the gynecologist."
Albert scowled, “Maybe she wasn't ready to tell me." 'He really knows how to cover his own tracks. It's been almost more than amonth since Felicity saw Hylda go for the checkup, yet they need to prepare themselves before telling each other?1
After knowing about Hylda's pregnancy, Albert was no longer interested in pestering Stella. So, he said, "Stella, please carefullyconsider what I've told you. Having a proper status is more beneficial than being without one." "Alright."
After hanging up the phone, Felicity could not help but ask, "How thick- skinned can Albert be to ask you to be his adopteddaughter? Does he assume that the Jewell family is so well-liked by everybody? How dare he bring up the property when thatadulterous couple forcibly occupied what originally belonged to Ms. Spade? He even dared to swindle you by saying that youwould get it after you remarry. Who are you going to marry?” "Keegan."
Felicity was taken aback, "Are you remarrying Keegan?" "No. Albert must have thought that | was planning to remarry Keegan.That's why he eagerly wanted to take me in as his adopted daughter."
Samantha had mentioned to Stella that Albert was very stressed out recently. From what she overheard from his telephoneconversation with someone, the company was facing some issues.
