Mr. Kane Got cklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 458
Chapter 458
The mess that was the Jewell family had already been talked about in the social circle
like crazy. However, it was Rainee’s funeral today. Although everyone wanted to, they
did not say much. As the saying goes, “De mortuis nil nisi bene”, only the good should
remain for the dead. There was no need to cause a ruckus at other people’s funerals.
Yet Trevor seemed to not care for this. As soon as he entered, he heard Albert
reprimanding Ste and could not help but feel bewildered.
Based on the information Trevor had, besides the assertive personality of Rainee, she
was actually a very outstanding woman.
‘Why did she pick this heartless, ungrateful thing for a husband?’ Trevor thought to
himself.
Albert’s figure froze, and he turned around, slightly irritated. He saw the unfamiliar
face of a man and said with furrowed brows, “I’m talking to my daughter. Does an
outsider need to butt in?”
As Trevor was about to open his mouth, he heard Ste say, “Albert, it’s my mother’s
funeral today. If you’re here for herst moments, shut up and light an incense. If
you’re here to make a scene, you can leaver
Albert’s expression immediately turned ugly, and he said through gritted teeth, “How
can you talk to me like this? I’m your father!”
Ste pulled the corner of her lips into a sarcastic smile. She said with a very low
voice, “Don’t insult that word. I don’t want to argue with you here, but if you ruin my
mother’s funeral, I’ll make your children suffer a pain worse than death. If you don’t
believe me, you can try.”
After saying this, she paused and lightly spat out a few words, “Hillbank Primary
School, right?”
Albert looked into Ste’s eyes. His whole back was riddled with goosebumps, and he
was shocked to the core. Ste actually knew he had a son and even knew the school
the kid was studying at!
Remembering the methods she used to deal with Sophia, Albert could not help but
feel terrified. His expression was a mixture of rage and shock, but he dared not open
his mouth. With a sullen look, lit an incense before standing to the side.
Trevor passed a few pieces of incense to Jaylene. Both of them bowed and slotted
the incense before walking toward Ste.
“Our condolences, Mrs. Kane.”
Ste lightly nodded her head. “Thank you.”
Jaylene looked up at the woman before her. She was so refined that she seemed like
she had walked out of a painting. Thenguish expression could not falter the beauty
of her features. Jaylene was studying fashion design. She had seen her fair share of
supermodels and celebrities, but this was the first time she had seen anyone as
stunning as Ste at first sight, i
She walked to the side and scanned the scene. Just as she wondered why there was
no member of the Kane family present, she heard amotion outside.
The Kane family had arrived. Once the car had stopped, Baldwin came down and
opened the car door. An olddy exited the car and hurriedly walked into the funeral
parlor.
Behind her, Dahlia came down the car and quickly followed the olddy. Dahlia held

onto her and said in a low tone, “Cordelia, you should walk slowly.”
The old madam flung her hand away and said seriously, “It’s the mother-in-w’s
funeral, yet youe here now and didn’t help Ste arrange it?” There were many
people outside. Dahlia was being reprimanded by the old madam right in her face and
she immediately felt embarrassed. She quietly exined, “Ste didn’t inform me
beforehand. I also just knew about it.”
“If you had usually cared just a little and checked in once in a while, you wouldn’t have
known until thest minute!” Cordelia was furious. “When your parents passed away,
what did your grandfather and I do? After so many years, you’ve shown no growth!
Such a major event happened and you allowed Ste to endure it alone. Do you even
have the dignity as an elder?”
Cordelia was such a sharp person. She had interacted with Ste for many years and
naturally knew how thoughtful she was. With such a huge incident as her mother
passing away, why would she not have informed the Kane family if there were no
other reason? The incident had urred too abruptly. Cordelia had not had time to
look into the ins and outs of what happened. Still, it did not stop her from specting
who the perpetrator was.
Dahlia’s expression switched between flushed and ashen. She gripped her hands
tightly and could not say a word. Cyrene had enough of seeing Dahlia’s sorry state
and proceeded to hold Cordelia. “Mother, you should cool down. Dahlia had been
quite busy recently and may have neglected it.
I ordered some wreaths and elegiac couplets and I’ve already sent them beforehand.
We should go in to see Ste first. The child had been through a lot these few days
and it’s quite pitiful.”
