Mr. Kane Got cklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 49
Chapter 49
“You can’t make usations like that, Mrs. Wood,” said Mrs. Chapman.
She intended to remind Mrs. Wood that Ste was still Dahlia’s daughter–inw, no matter what. While
it was usually eptable for them to banter around, going overboard was a little inappropriate.
However, Mrs. Wood thought that Mrs. Chapman did not believe her.
“I’m not making usations. Back then, one of my nephews worked at the Department of
Transportation and took part in this ident’s investigation He said the car was badly damaged, and
the two supposedly shouldn’t be alive. After they were rescued, it turned out only her mother was badly
injured while she only had some cuts.”

She continued, “She doesn’t die easily. Women like her can easily cause the death of the people
around her. They kill their husband, their sons.
“Mrs. Wood!” Mrs. Chapman kicked Mrs. Wood under the table when she saw Dahlia’s expression.
Mrs. Wood finally realized that she had inadvertently spoken ill of Dahlia.
Since Dahlia had lost her husband at a young age, bringing up how some women caused the death of
their husbands and sons insinuated that Dahlia caused her husband’s death.
Mrs. Wood panicked, and she quickly exined, “Th–That’s not what I meant…”
Dahlia lifted her gaze coolly. “Then, what did you mean?”
Mrs. Wood’s hand froze. She stumbled over her words and could not answer.
Then, Mrs. White smiled and said, “Don’t be angry, Dahlia. Mrs. Wood didn’t mean what she said. You
know how that brain of hers is.”
Dahlia took a sip of tea and cynically said, “You’re so naive even at this age. Mr. Wood is a fortunate
man.
It was not apliment.
Even if Mrs. Wood was stupid, she could detect Dahlia’s sardonicism. Her face turned red in anger, but
she did not dare to retort Dahlia.
‘Dahlia initially nned to invite Mrs. White only. The two of us were invited to keep thempany.
But, I ended up publicly humiliating her. I’m lucky she didn’t publicly have a fallout with me,‘ she
thought.
Ste stood at the corner of the corridor and listened to their conversation while nibbling on cherries.
‘Turns out women of high society are gossipy too. They went to such lengths to discuss my insignificant
little matter; I’m ttered. I’ll lead to my husband and son’s death? If that’s true, I better lead to
Keegan’s erectile dysfunction! We’ll see what woman will dare to take him in!‘ she thought.
Keegan was absent–mindedly looking through the documents at the Vinci Rivera Group.
‘I suspect the boss didn’t pay much attention to my report just now. In the past, he rarely spaces out
during work. He was so strict with work efficiency that he utilized his time to the very second. He’s like
a machine with precise calctions. He would clearly organize. If one asked the people around Mr.
Kane what came first to him, everyone would unanimously think that it was work,‘ Aldor thought.
‘But, he’s been zoning out recently. It makes me feel like this workaholic machine has developed a bug,
and this bug is very likely caused by his wife,‘ he thought again.
Aldor contemted for a while and said, “Mr. Kane, Mrs. Kane went to your mother’s ce today.”
Keegan nced at him and did not respond.
Aldor continued, “Your mother invited a few of her friends over today. Mrs. Kane also went to keep
thempany.”
“What kind ofpany can she give? Her words alone can make someone choke to death. Does my
mother find thosedies too chatty, so she asked her over to make things awkward?”
‘Mrs. Kane only speaks aggressively in front of you. When she’s facing outsiders, she’s very polite and
refined. But, if I said this to the boss, he’ll get angry. An outstanding assistant must know how to read
the room,‘ he thought.
“Thosedies have the reputation within the circle for being crafty. Mrs. Kane is young and naive, so
she might be at a disadvantage.”
