Mr. Kane Got cklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 218


    Chapter 218


    Ste was a little surprised.


    ‘Why is dad calling me?’ Ste wondered. ‘Don’t tell me he regrets giving me that bracelet the night


    before.’


    In Ste’s perception, Albert was very stingy.


    Rainee said that he was probably afraid of being poor because he grew up in poverty. Even after he


    had the money, he was still stingy with it. His stinginess was not just toward Rainee and Ste but also


    himself.


    Rainee, on the other hand, was theplete opposite. She liked to spend money when she made it.


    Maybe it was because they had different values. They would argue about money all the time.


    Albert would criticize Rainee for spending money without restraint. Rainee would perceive that Albert’s


    mindset was too narrow and that he was too concerned with making or losing money. When they met


    big clients, he would not even buy a suit that cost over ten grand and would not book a decent hotel.


    He was afraid of losing money if the deal fell through.


    But, to say that Albert was penny-pinching was not entirely urate. At least when it came to his own


    rtives, he was pretty generous.


    Albert was the first person from his hometown to attend college and make it big in the city. So, he was


    quite famous back home.


    When news of his sessfulpany got out, all sorts of distant rtives starteding out of the


    woodwork and connected with him.

    Albert cared about his reputation. Whenever someone asked for a favor, he would everything he could.


    Hence, many of his rtives from his hometown were working for hispany.


    Although Ste’s grandparents had passed away early and she seldom saw them, she had a strong


    impression of her uncles and aunts, who had taken advantage of Albert’s status to act arrogantly in the


    company.

    He did not mind supporting these people who were not contributing to thepany, but he would


    comin for a long time when Rainee bought a purse.


    And now that Ste had grown up, she realized that apart from her dowry during her marriage, the


    most expensive gift Albert had ever given her was the piano in their home. And, even that was bought


    reluctantly only after Rainee’s insistence.


    Rainee used to say that Albert was ustomed to hardships and did not like to waste money, and


    Ste shared the same belief.


    However, ever since Rainee went into aa, Albert’s actions made Ste realize that he was not just


    stingy but heartless. Whether it was for reputation or profit, he would only spend money when it was


    advantageous to him. Once someone had lost their value, he would show no mercy in kicking them out.


    So, when Ste made him give her the bracelet, she had no guilt whatsoever and even felt that it was


    too little.


    Looking at the blinking name on the caller ID, Ste thought for a moment. Then, she answered the


    call.


    “Hello.”


    “Ste, how are you feeling today?” Albert’s voice was unusually gentle.


    Ste’s forehead twitched.


    Albert rarely spoke to her with such kindness. He usually only did so when he needed something.


    “I’m feeling better,” she replied calmly.


    “I heard about your food poisoning How’s your appetitetely? I had our cook make some pelmeni. I


    remember you used to love them. I can have someone deliver them to youter. Ste thought, ‘That


    was like a few years ago when I said I wanted to eat pelmeni. He must have gone to great lengths to


    recall that, so he could use it as an excuse.”


    “Thanks, dad. But, you don’t need to go through all that trouble. We have a housemaid who can make


    them for me if I want it.”
