    Albert frowned. “What nonsense are you spouting?”

    Sophia coldly harrumphed, ‘That respectful daughter of yours not only got back together with Keegan


    after the divorce, but she also hooked onto the Saun family’s sole heir. She even wanted me to tell you


    to return her mother’s dowry and the Kane family’s betrothal gift. She will find a time to pick it up, and


    she will sue if you don’t give it back.”


    Albert’s expression turned grotesque, gritting his teeth as he said, “Why is she biting the hand that fed


    her now?”


    Having been humiliated by the p along with the addition of Hylda’s presence, Sophia sarcastically


    whispered, “Why wouldn’t she dare? Anyone would hate you to the core if you divorced their mother


    immediately after she turned vegetative.’


    Hylda frowned and shouted, “Shut up!”


    Sophia stopped speaking even though she was unhappy about it. Hylda continued,


    “She’s really funny. Who is she to want us to return the betrothal gift when she is already divorced?


    Only the Kanes have the right to ask for the gift to be returned. As for the dowry, did she honestly think


    that Rainee left her with a lot of money when Rainee’s hospital bills already cost so much?”


    Albert naturally would not bring out the money since he couldn’t fork out any. His funds had shrunk


    from buying the shares for Semiconductor Technology, and a lot of major long-term customers left due


    to Ste and Keegan’s divorce. It shrank more than half of the business’s turnoverpared to the first


    quarter. Some from the management level had already started to lose their confidence and privately


    sold off their shares.


    He might face the possibility of bankruptcy if he did not get more sales and bring in more cash flow.


    He did not dare to even tell Hylda about these since she had warned him about being greedy when


    they were just starting to see returns. His avarice caused him to lose most of his funds when he bought


    Semiconductor Technologies.


    He did not have the courage to tell Hylda about this and was afraid that she would scorn him for acting


    on his own. He should not have soured their rtionship earlier on. Thepany’s turnover could


    easily breach the hundred million mark with Ste’s support.


    He had no idea that Ste could still hang onto Keegan even after the divorce. Only with Keegan’s help


    would thepany be able to tide over its current predicament.


    This was his chance since Ste and Keegan were together once again.


    After she finished her meal, Ste went back home to take a shower. Felicity called out to her the


    moment she came out of the bathroom.” Ste, your phone has been ringing for some time. I didn’t


    dare to pick it up since it was an unknown number.”


    Ste acknowledged that and went to pick up her phone when the number called again. She then


    picked up the call.


    “Ste, it’s me.”


    The moment Albert opened his mouth, Ste hung up the phone and cklisted his number. Felicity


    saw her decisively hanging up the phone, so she asked, “Is it a promoter?”


    “Yes.”


    ‘Why does that whole disgusting family have to appear consecutively? First, it was that gut-wrenching


    Sophia, and now it’s Albert who called.*


    Albert did not give up and changed a few numbers within the hour just to get through to Ste. Even


    someone like Felicity who was slow to realize could feel that something was off. “Who called?”
