Chapter 204
When she said that, she handed the bracelet she had scammed from Albert. The marbling of the
bracelet was gorgeous, but since it was a million-dollar item, it looked inferior to the twenty million
bracelet. However, Stella could not care too much. Regardless of anything, she could not allow Dahlia
to bid for the bracelet.
“Mom, you should try it. If it’s not suitable, I can pick another one for you,” Stella said.
Dahlia’s expression could not be considered as happy. Stella gave her the bracelet right when she was
about to bid for the bracelet, not a moment earlier or later. If she did not accept it, it would spread
rumors about their terrible relationship as in-laws. If Dahlia took it with Cordelia present, as the mother-
in-law, Dahlia had to gift something back as a sign of affection. Otherwise, Cordelia would think that
she lacked etiquette as a daughter-in-law.
Besides, whether she accepted it or not, Stella had gifted her the bracelet first. So, if she went up to bid
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfor the bracelet, everyone would assume that she did not like the item Stella had given her. Hence, she
would bid for the bracelet.
After Stella brought out the item, sure enough, Cordelia said, “It’s a sign of the child’s sincerity. You
should try and see if you like it.”
Dahlia felt her pent-up frustration but could only smile and take it.
Coincidentally, the bracelet’s size fitted perfectly, and it seemed as though it was bought just for Dahlia.
Cordelia praised Stella. “Stella has a good eye. It really suits you.”
Dahlia gave an uneasy chuckle. “Her taste has always been good. I really like this bracelet.”
Since Cordelia had commented, numerous other madams also praised her. “Mrs. Kane, your daughter-
in-law is really filial, and her tastes are inexplicable. The bracelet you are wearing is stunning.”
“My daughter-in-law had married into the family for more than five years. All she knows is to send stuff
back to her family and never send me a good gift. Mrs. Kane, you are fortunate to have a daughter-in-
law like her.”
Dahlia was speechless. Cordelia heard all their praises and was delighted. However, it was apparent
that Dahlia’s smile was much stiffer. Stella knew that her mother-in-law would definitely hate her to
death at that moment.
However, she could not care too much. As long as Dahlia did not buy the jade bracelet, even if she
blamed her on the way back, she would only make her life difficult at most. Besides, it was not like she
had not done it before. Irene, on the other hand, finally took Stella seriously. She carefully scanned
Dahlia’s daughter-in-law and did not say a word for a long while.
“Is there anyone else who would like to participate in the bid?” The host’s voice resounded again, but
no one present would come forward.
Stella let out a breath of relief and heard Cordelia shout, “Wait.”
Everyone turned to look at her. Cordelia walked over to Stella and gently said, “Stella, you should go
and get a number.”
When she finished speaking, Stella could feel Dahlia’s cold gaze fixated on her. Of course, there were

Stella felt that she almost broke down. Just as she had gotten rid of the issue, Cordelia kicked the issue
back into her arms.
Stella did not dare to accept it. “Grandma, my luck is never good. I shouldn’t go up there and reduce
the chances of others getting it.”
Cordelia smiled. “My child, don’t say such discouraging statements before you try pulling for it. Who
knows, you might be the prophesied one that the Venerable Raphael Morghen was talking about.
When I looked for him and asked about you and Keegan’s compatibility in marriage, he told me that
you were a person with immense luck. Marrying you would reduce diseases and disasters while
making us prosper. Before you married into our family, Keegan would have headaches and fevers
frequently. After you married into the family, his conditions. have lessened. It’s obvious that what the
Venerable Raphael Morghen had said is very accurate.
”
Stella currently felt that the Venerable Raphael Morghen was probably a real scammer.
