Mr. Kane Got cklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 284
Chapter 284
Arthur’s insult was mainly aimed at Albert. Ste then felt that he wasn’t a confused old man. Albert
smiled apologetically and said, “Keegan treats her very well. Ste is blessed to have married him.
How is she in a lion’s den?” The old man snorted and did not speak again.
Keegan’s appearance was rare at the Jewell residence. Albert wanted him to at least stay for a meal.
Initially, Keegan and Ste nned to pick Arthur up and leave, but Albert insisted on them staying.
After having lunch with the Jewells, they rested there for a bit before driving the old man back to their
ce. It was already 3:00 or 4:00 p.m. when they got in the car.
Ste asked her great-grandfather if he wanted to lie down for a while, but the man wanted to
He said he could not see from the window if hey down. Ste thought that it was funny, but she
obeyed his wishes.
Arthur had lived in his hometown all his life. But now, he was in Rivera, the farthest ce he had ever
traveled. Aldor intentionally slowed down to let him take in the view. Arthur’s golden eyes were fixed on
the slowly receding scenery outside the window. The rows and rows of buildings in Rivera looked
magnificent.
Arthur looked at the road for a long time and said, “The ce is developing really well. There are so
many skyscrapers here.”
Ste suddenly felt sad and whispered, “You can stay here longer if you like.”
Arthur smiled and joked, “I didn’t expect to have such a blessing at this age.” As he said that, he
suddenly put his hand into the pocket of his coat, rummaged it for a long time, and took out a piece of
Ferrero chocte. He handed it to Ste and whispered to her like a child, “I found this in Sophia’s
room. She said it’s chocte, and it’s super delicious. But, I can’t eat it since I have no teeth left. Can
you eat it and tell me if it’s any good?”
Ste was taken aback. She did not really have any impression of her great-grandfather since she did
not return to her hometown often. When she was younger, she only stayed there for a day or two and
left in a hurry. The only thing she remembered was that her great-grandfather took out a paper bag
from his coat, put his hand into it, and handed her a piece of candy. The candy was much more
unptable than the ones she ate at home. It tasted like artificial sweetener, but her great-grandfather
had asked her if it was good. So, she ate the piece of candy and said yes. Arthur then smiled so hard
that Ste could not even see his eyes.
Now that they had met again, Ste noticed that her great-grandfather looked even older than before
as his hair turned gray. However, when Arthur took out the chocte from his coat and handed it to her,
it reminded Ste of her childhood. And, it was a bittersweet moment for her.
Seeing the expectant expression on Arthur’s face, Ste took the piece of chocte and unwrapped it.
The chocte had been in his coat for too long, and it had already melted. slightly by the warmth of his
body. Ste said nothing about it and lowered her head to take a bite “It tastes wonderful,” she said
softly.
Arthur’s eyes curved into a smile as he said, “I’ll get you a few moreter so that your father won’t
seem biased.”
Keegan tilted his head and looked at the two with a thoughtful expression. The old man caught his
gaze and immediately covered the chocte in Ste’s hand. “It’s not for you!” he said.
Keegan was speechless while Aldor burst outughing. He immediately suppressed hisughter when
he met Keegan’s narrow eyes and continued to drive in a serious manner. Keegan had asked two
servants from thepany toe and take care of the old man. When Ste was not busy, she
would bring the old man to visit the scenic spots in Rivera. Keegan would tag along asionally, but he
was usually busy with work. So, it was difficult for him to find the time to join them. Moreover, even if he
did spare some time, the old man did not want to see him.
Every time he joined them, he was asked to carry a bag or run errands like buying drinks. At the same
time, Ste was not allowed to help him out.

Whenever Arthur was dissatisfied with what Keegan did, he would say, “Oh, the city folk…. They’re just
not good enough. They can’t do anything right. When I was young, I chased your great-grandma down
the street with a pig in my arms. The widows in the vige blushed when they saw me.”
Whenever Keegan got mad, the old man would say, “The city folks sure have a bad temper. No girls
from our vige would ever want him, even if he’s thest man alive. Even if he does end. up getting
married, his wife would surely run away with another man.”
Keegan then realized that he was not supporting Ste by bringing Arthur to stay with them; he was
just making his own life difficult.
