Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 201
Chapter 201
Aurora's face turned red, and she coquettishly said, "Godmother, what are you saying?"
Marshall furrowed his brows and pushed Aurora's hand away." Mom, you shouldn't make these jokes on a whim. Aurora is much younger than I am. She's like a sister to me."
Aurora interrupted hastily. "I'm not your biological sister..."
"Aurora!" Dahlia yelled out. "Go help support your grandmother."
Aurora initially did not want to let her hand go, but she saw Dahlia's heavy expression and could only let go and leave with gritted teeth.
When Aurora had left, Dahlia sighed, "She just can't grow up."
A few times, Stella had met the pretty woman, which was also Marshall's mother. Although she was slightly plump, she still was very elegant. Her features also showed that she was quite beautiful when she was younger.
Marshall's mother and Dahlia had an excellent relationship with each other. Otherwise, she would not have accepted Aurora as her godchild.
It was apparent that both of them wanted to make this marriage come true, but Marshall seemed unwilling.
Dahlia could clearly see it and naturally would not want her daughter to seem cheap by being so unrestrained. Hence, when Marshall said those words, she directed Aurora to the side. Although Keegan and Aurora were her children, Stella always felt that Dahlia would put more thoughtful consideration into Aurora. Meanwhile, Keegan and Dahlia, despite being mother and son, were slightly ceremonious and estranged.
"They're still young, and they're just kids. There is no need for such harsh demands,"
Marshall's mother gently replied. She then looked at Keegan, and her gaze softened. "I envy you for having both a son and a daughter." Dahlia replied, "What's the use of having both a son and daughter? When it comes to their marriages, none of them will listen to me."
Marshall's mother heard the hidden meaning behind her words, as Dahlia was never satisfied with her current daughter-in-law. However, Marshall's mother did not continue the conversation since it was the family affairs of others. It was not up to an outsider like her to give an opinion. She could only smile and say, "The kids have their own destiny and happiness to grab hold of; there is no need to be so controlling."
Stella lowered her gaze and was used to the subtle ridicule from Dahlia. As both of them were chatting, Mrs. White arrived late while being escorted by the other madams. Mrs. White was Marshall's aunt, Irene and the organizer of this private jewelry exhibition. Irene wore a white gown, and her whole body was bejeweled. No one knew whether it was due to her having a younger husband. Hence, she looked much more youthful than the other madams of the same
age.
She held hands with a young man who looked like he was in his thirties. He was tall and slim with very nice-looking features. However, he seemed slightly feminine, which made him look odd. That man should be Irene's husband.
"My sister-in-law, Mrs. Kane, why are you all standing here? Aren't you going to see if something suits your fancy?" Irene asked.
Dahlia replied, "We're all waiting for the grand finale you were talking about. When does it show?"
'Grand finale? The Luminous Pearl isn't even the grand finale?' Stella thought.
Irene chuckled. "Is there even a rare item that you, Mrs. Kane, haven't seen before?"
"I haven't seen the jade blessed by the Venerable Raphael Morghen yet," Dahlia replied. Stella, too, had yet to meet the Venerable Raphael Morghen, but she had heard numerous rumors about him. Most of them were about how accurate his predictions and foresight were, as well as how powerful he was. Aside from that, the Venerable Raphael Morghen had his own temperament. It was said that he always stayed in his abode and was rarely seen. Regardless of how powerful or wealthy a person was, he would only see to guests once it was time for him to leave his dwelling. Hence, forget about blessing a jade. Even if one wanted their fortune to be told, one must wait in line.
Although he acted that way, the Temple of Abawo was always busy. The incense in the temples would always burn, thankfully due to the contributions of the wealthy madams. That was why when the madams heard that the jade was blessed by the Venerable Raphael Morghen, they were naturally interested in it.
Irene said as she laughed, "It was blessed by the Venerable Raphael Morghen, but the jade doesn't belong to me. It belongs to one of my friends. The Venerable Raphael Morghen said that my friend's aura would not be able to handle such a spiritual jade. Forcefully wearing it would ruin her destiny, so she gave it to me to sell it."
