Dahlia pressed her lips together and said, "I knew Grandma invited you. I just thought since you were
having a hard time in your family, you probably wouldn't be in the mood to come. Well, I
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, I decided to show some respect to him. After all, we were once husband and
wife. Although I don't have to be considerate to you, I do have to show Keegan some consideration."
Dahlia stared at Keegan with a stern face. Keegan did not attempt to refute it as if he had confirmed

"Keegan is just being filial. He didn't want to upset his grandma on such a joyous occasion." Dahlia
hinted that Keegan's phone calls 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 I wouldn't
come," she said as she touched the red diamond on her neck. "The charm of a 47 million was quite
attractive."
Keegan looked at her in silence, watching her as she blabbered on and bragged. Dahlia was taken
aback, and her expression turned dark. The group of wives behind them went into a frenzy. They were
discussing how genuine the diamond necklace on Stella's neck was, but now she suddenly revealed
the price. Along with that, Keegan was the one who gifted it.' Didn't the two of them divorce? Or, did it
turn out all in vain? And, Stella was completely different after the divorce. She used to be all timid and
submissive around Dahlia and never dared to contradict her. How did she change completely after the
divorce?' The crowd thought.
No matter how stupid one was, everyone could tell that Dahlia and Stella were both aggressive in their
remarks. However, it was clear that Dahlia was slightly inferior. The 47-million-dollar necklace itself had
knocked Dahlia out. In front of the 47-million-dollar worth 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."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStella 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 few more?"
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't miss 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, and Stella 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 his mother if he stayed.
