Chapter 165
After exiting the ward, Albert stopped Dahlia. “Dahlia, you look great lately”
Dahlia replied without emotion, “I’m so-so.”
“I asked Stella to give you the white truffle a while back. Have you tried it? How is it?”
Dahlia frowned. “White truffle? I didn’t get it.”
Albert looked surprised. “That’s impossible. I handed it to Stella and asked her to give it to you. How can
you not get it?”
“What do you mean?” Aurora raised her voice. “Do you mean my mom denied after accepting your gift?
She has all the good things. Is the Kane family short of your piece of junk? Don’t think the Jewell family
can raise their standing by relying on Stella just because she married Keegan. She’s nobody in the Kane
family!”
Albert’s expression changed, looking unhappy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter Aurora finished, Dahlia said lightly, “Aurora, how can you talk to your elders this way?” Aurora
snorted coldly. She did not take him seriously at all.
Albert, a middle-aged man in his early fifties, was a little embarrassed to be scolded by a girl like this.
Dahlia spoke. “My daughter is blunt by nature. So, please don’t take her words seriously.” Albert forced a
smile. “It’s okay. How can I argue with a kid?”
“Actually, you don’t need to waste your energy on me. Keegan has a sense of propriety with the
company’s affairs. I don’t work in the company, so I can’t say anything.”
These words made Albert speechless for a moment. He then said with a smile, “Dahlia, you overthink it. I
didn’t mean that. You take care of Stella after she married into the Kane family. As her father, I gave you
a gift out of selfishness. I hope you guys have a harmonious relationship.”
Dahlia glanced at him, “It said a married daughter is no longer a member of her
parent’s household. Naturally, I’ll treat her well as long as she’s willing to belong to the Kane family. I’m
just worried that she can’t get the point.”
These words were full of underlying messages. Albert’s face seemed to change with every word.
There was a uniformed policeman getting water at the water dispenser. So, Stella had to stand aside and
wait. After the policeman finished, he turned around and paused when he saw her He nodded to her and
left with the water glass.
Stella was a little baffled After getting some water, she saw Felicity had sent her a message [Ten
numbers were chosen. Hope we can win the jackpot’]
Two lottery tickets with the selected numbers printed on them were on the bottom.
Stella sent an emoji that said, “May Fortune Smile On You” and put away her phone Then, she went to
the duty room. She planned to ask about Keegan’s conditi
The nurse in the duty room was the one in charge of Keegan. She told Stella about Keegan’s condition in
detail. “Yes, the wound is quite deep, but it’s okay. He can be discharged in the afternoon. Take good
care of it at home. The stitches can be removed within ten days to half a month. It’ll be fine once the
scab falls off. Just be careful, and don’t let the wound run into contact with water during this period.”

“It wasn’t a lot.” While talking, another nurse came in and said, “Zoe, the police took away the patient in
bed 32 after he woke up. Ask someone to clean up the ward. I’m off work.”
“So fast? The patient in bed 32 was seriously injured. Why did the police take him away? What was his
offense?”
The nurse took off her scrubs and said, “I heard from the person on duty last night that he drugged a girl
in a bar and was beaten. He also had an accomplice who had a worsened condition. His nose was
broken. He had an operation last night and wasn’t awake yet. Before the morning shift, the wives of
these two people came to the hospital and made trouble. You haven’t reached at that time, but I met
them. One of the women was pregnant. She was in tears, shouting and pulling the police, saying they
wronged good people. The surveillance was filmed clearly, but they just don’t believe it. What do you
think these women are expecting?” “That’s why so many policemen came to the eighth floor in the early
morning. So that’s the case? What about the people who beat them? Wouldn’t the police also arrest
them?”
Stella’s heart stopped. She thought of the police officer she saw just now. ‘Is he here to arrest Keegan?”
