Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 189

Kevin snorted icily and said, “We’re talking about how you ill-treated your sister. Why are you avoiding

the topic?”

“Ill-treated?” Stella ruminated over the word. Suddenly, she asked Sophia, “Sophia, in our family, did

mom and dad or me mistreat you?”

She immediately feigned a terrified expression “N-No. Everyone’s really good to me. Stella always

shares whatever she has with me and is kind to me. Stop it, Kevin.”

The more she continued her act, the more Kevin thought he was punishing the evil and upholding

goodness. His sense of heroism was off the charts. “So kind to you that she made. you wear her old

clothes and eat cake that’s close to being expired? Stella Jewell, did you think no one would remember

these incidents just because Sophia deleted her Facebook account?

“That’s what I was wondering too,” Stella suddenly said with a distressed expression.

Then, she continued in a sorrowful tone, “Sophia, I genuinely treated you like my own sister since you

came to the Jewell family. Whenever I got something, I’d immediately share it with you. As long as it was

something I liked, I would give it to you, including the dress I liked, the cake I liked, and even my

marriage Right now, aren’t you wearing the jewelry set my husband gave me?”

Sophia was startled and retracted her hand as a reflex.

The necklace on her neck, the bracelet on her wrist, and even the earrings she was wearing were all a

part of the dowry the Kane family gave Stella.

Obviously, Stella did not give these things to Sophia. Instead, it was Albert who gave them to her

because Stella thought they did not look nice.

Sophia hated Stella but also adored the jewelry set.

It cost over 3 million in total.

‘I usually can’t bring myself to wear them, but I purposefully took the set out and wore it for the sake of

looking good in front of the wealthy circle. Who would’ve thought that Stella would recognize the jewelry

set and use it as leverage? Sophia thought.

Sophia turned pale. “There are people from the Kane family here, and this jewelry set is the real thing.

So, I can’t deny it. That bitch Stella. I really underestimated her!’ she thought.

Sophia gritted her teeth and swallowed her anger. Then, she quietly said, “I remember all of Stella’s

kindness to me.”

“If you remember my kindness, why did you say such things on Facebook?” Stella asked sharply and

skillfully changed the subject.

Sophia panicked and immediately realized that she had fallen into Stella’s trap.

However, Stella did not let go and continued to pursue the issue.

“You can tell me directly if you’re unhappy with anything. Why did you post such things on Facebook?

Back then, I was alienated in school because of the things you posted. Even my college admission

recommendation went south because of this incident. I don’t blame you for any of this. I just don’t

understand why you did all this.”

Stella made up the matter about the college admission recommendation. While she was one of the

shortlisted candidates for the admission recommendation back then, she did not like the selected

college, so she voluntarily gave up on it.

However, the genuineness of the incident did not matter as long as the bystanders bought it.

Stella’s questions immediately changed the narrative of the incident.

“I did hear about this incident that happened back then. I have a cousin who was classmates with Stella

back then, and they were pretty good friends. Whenever they went out together, Stella would buy two of

whatever she bought. My cousin asked Stella why she bought two sets, and she said her little sister had

just joined her family. So, she’s someone who has a little sister now. When the Facebook incident

happened, my cousin was really shocked because just a week before the incident, she and Stella went

to buy Stella’s little sister’s birthday present. together.”

“I don’t think Stella graduated from some random college. She went to Trinity Film Academy, so it’s very

likely the college admission recommendation incident is true.”

Everyone knew how hard it was to get into Trinity Film Academy. The academy had high requirements

for the student’s cultural studies even though they were art students, so those who got into the academy

were all outstanding individuals.

Since Sophia’s school was not even one of the top five in the state, this was a slap in the face for those

who said Sophia was better than Stella.

“Besides, she gave her jewelry worth several million. Not even my mother is that generous to me.”

“If what Stella said is true, doesn’t that make Sophia an ungrateful person? Stella’s so nice to her, yet

she made thoughtless remarks online that ruined her reputation.”

“Normally, when a person is in extreme fear, they will usually recognize the first person who saves them

from their suffering and get attached to them. But back then, after the fire, Sophia. only recognized the

Jewell family for some reason. I thought it was weird. She’s a crafty child, so it’s not surprising for her to

do such a thing.”

The situation had completely changed. Compared to Sophia’s baseless rumors, Stella’s claims were

well-grounded.

Stella had everything from witnesses and evidence, so Sophia could not even find any reasons to refute

it.

Sophia was shocked, resentful, and angered. She had an incredibly furious expression.

Seeing how Stella wanted to continue speaking, Albert quickly said, “All of this is in the past, so why

bring it up?”

Stella glanced at Albert.

His eyes were filled with worry for Sophia. However, he did not even look worried at all when others

uttered slander at Stella.

“Dad, I’m not the one who brought this up. Besides, I just wanted to get the story straight. Didn’t you

always want the two of us to be in harmony? This is something that’s been bothering me for years. Isn’t it

good for us to settle it today?”

Albert frowned. “Sophia didn’t know any better when she was younger. Besides, didn’t she delete those

posts after that? What’s the use of holding onto the past?”

“So, what you’re saying is that the things Sophia said online back then were nonsense?” Albert realized

that Stella was discreetly getting him to admit the truth.

“Sophia was adopted, so she’s already sensitive, to begin with. Back then, she only posted. those things

on Facebook to vent her feelings. As her older sister, can’t you just go easy on her?”

Stella’s heart sank.

‘Who knew that Albert would continue to defend Sophia even at this point?’ she thought.

Just as Stella was about to speak, someone chuckled behind her.

“Your father-in-law is so biased that it’s making me speechless. Is your wife even his biological

daughter?”

Albert was startled. When he lifted his head and saw the person speaking, his expression changed.

Keegan was standing nearby with an indifferent expression. Meanwhile, the person who had spoken

earlier was Vermont, who stood next to him.

Judging from their stance, the two seemed to have stood there watching them for a long time.

The moment Keegan appeared, the people who were criticizing Stella instantly fell silent.

Stella glared at Keegan in annoyance.

‘Why is this bastard here right now? He’s going to hinder my performance!’ she thought.

On the other hand, Albert felt uneasy. Previously, he had hit Stella at the hospital. That very night, he lost

a few big contracts.
