Chapter 133
Keegan looked at her confusedly.
Then, Stella took her wallet out of her bag and said flatly, “However, I’m not as heartless as you. Even
though I’m the reason you were hurt, it was you who provoked me first. So, I’ll pay for your medical bills.
However, there’s nothing else I can do if you think it’s not enough. This is everything I can afford to pay
you before the divorce.”
After that, she handed him a signed check. Keegan looked at it and saw twenty thousand
written on it.
Keegan’s face turned ugly as he tore the check in half. “Stella Jewell, cut it off!”
Stella looked at the torn check on the floor and said calmly, “I’ll just take it as you accepted it. As for the
divorce, I hope you can settle everything as soon as possible. I don’t think I can hide that I’m infertile

Stella’s shoulders dropped dispiritedly as soon as she left the hospital.
She felt so awful because nothing went her way at all.
She knew that she had done something wrong. Clearly, she did something wrong. Yet, she took it all out
on Keegan for no reason.
However, she just could not get over how Dahlia mistreated her.
Stella gazed downward at the back of her hand and saw a very long and thin scratch. It came from
Dahlia’s ring when she brushed her aside just now.
Dahlia had never liked her. Even though she hid her hatred toward Stella very well, she could tell how
much she despised her just by the look on her face.
Neither Stella’s character nor her family background matched Dahlia’s expectations.
Besides, Stella never contributed anything to the family despite getting married to Keegan for many
years. Dahlia just could not find a reason to like her. How protective Keegan was of her also contributed
to their conflict.
Stella wondered to herself. ‘Do all mothers hate it when their sons get too close to their wives? Or is this
just happening because Dahlia lost her husband when she was still so young, so she’s very possessive
over her son?’
Even though her relationship with Keegan was not exceptionally good, she could feel Dahlia would hate
her a little bit more whenever Keegan defended her.
That scratch mark was a perfect example. The scar would not be so deep if Dahlia did not do that on
purpose.
Keegan could never keep himself out of what happened, as he was why Dahlia hated her so mucis!
In the Jewell residence.
Albert was eating, with his family in the dining hall when his phone suddenly rang.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe picked up the call and said with a bright smile, “Mr. Anne, why are you calling me at this
hour? Have you eaten?”
“Cut the crap! Albert Jewell, do you know what your good daughter did?! You’re so shameless for making
us pay for you!”
The smile on Albert’s face disappeared as he said in a deep voice, “Mr. Anne, what are you talking
about? What did my daughter do?”
“Quit pretending!” Henry was still very mad. “My daughter has always been very sensible. However, she
spent thirty million dollars on a bangle when she went out with your daughter, Sophia, yesterday! She
even used my company’s money! I confronted her about it, and she told me she only did that to stand up
for your daughter and that the bangle can’t be returned! I have more than a hundred employees on my
payroll. I’m really curious about what your daughter did until Xianna had to spend thirty million just to
make her feel better. Do you think this is logical?”
Sophia’s grip on her fork got tighter as she sat opposite Albert.
