Chapter 171

At any rate, the housemaid had worked for the Kane family for many years. Hence, the words Keegan spoke were quite insensitive. Stella originally wanted to tell him to forget about it since she had taken the slap already. There was no meaning in pursuing this further.

Before she could speak, she heard the housemaid stutter out, “It was… It was the missus… The missus threw away the item and did not let me…”

“Who are you talking to?” Before the housemaid could finish, Dahlia’s voice came from the phone. Then, Dahlia took the phone.

“It’s Mr. Kane. He’s asking about the white truffles incident…”

There was no sound on the other side. After a few seconds, Dahlia took over the phone. “It’s just two boxes of white truffles. Do you need to call back home to interrogate people?”

Keegan pursed his lips. “I just want to figure out this thing.”

Dahlia was infuriated. “What will you do after you figure it out? Call the cops to arrest us? She doesn’t have any other talent, but her talent for snitching is the best! Forget about not seeing the item. Even if I did, I would not accept it! If you have time, control your wife properly. She’s married to the Kane family. Stop siding with outsiders all the time!”

After she finished, she hung up the phone. Keegan held onto the phone and did not make a sound for a long while.
