Chapter 591
Dahlia's expression indeed did become much better. Her ideal daughter-in- law had to be a prestigious
heiress such as the one in the Saun family, i
She initially had already looked down on Stella's background for coming from a commoner. Now that
she knew Stella was actually the illegitimate daughter born from Rainee's disloyalty, she felt even more
disgust for her deep down.
Thankfully, Keegan had finally divorced her. When the marriage union between him and Jaylene was
successful, he would have the Saun family as his support. Then, he would eventually understand
Dahlia's well intentions.
"Are the fireworks ready?" Dahlia asked.
Mrs. Chapman nodded and said, "The custom-made fireworks contain Cordelia's portrait and the
birthday wishes. I can ensure that this will be the only one made especially for tonight and definitely
please Madam Kane Sr."
"You do things so properly," Dahlia praised.

matter, could you..."
Dahlia paused and said, "Keegan had recently just divorced. There are some things I cannot mention
for now. You can still rest easy. After the moment passed, I will definitely resolve it for you."
The actual situation was that, besides Keegan stopping her from withdrawing money every month from
her account, the production line of the Crosby family had encountered some issues. This led to the
shrinkage of the dividend that she had.
However, Dahlia thought that all of this would be temporary. Keegan was married to Stella for more
than three years. One would develop feelings even when they kept a dog, so Keegan was expected to
still have some anger. It would be fine after a while. She did not believe that a low-status woman could
withstand their relationship as kin by blood.
Since Dahlia had said so, Mrs. Chapman's heart was slightly at ease.
"Aurora, have you gotten skinnier recently?" Someone asked.
Aurora wore a tiny red gown and made a princess braid. Due to being beaten to a pulp by Stella before
this, she was unable to eat initially. She had to nurse her injuries for quite a long time. Now that her
wounds were healed, her physique had significantly slimmed down.
Her face, which used to be chubby in the past, had slimmed down. And, it made her features much
sharper. She seemed more and more similar to Dahlia. Dahlia used to be a beauty during her younger
days, so Aurora's looks naturally would not be that terrible. It was Cordelia's birthday banquet today, so
Aurora had dolled herself up because Marshall wanted to come.
Aurora rubbed her face and asked in a low tone, "Is it that obvious?"
"It's very obvious," Aurora's female friend answered. "You look even more gorgeous now. As long as
Stella doesn't come, you would definitely outshine everyone."
Aurora's smile immediately was about to fall. Stella was a true nightmare to the socialite's circle. If she
did not come, the socialites would be able to show off during these types of occasions. When she did
come, she was guaranteed to outshine everyone.
Regardless of her delicate features, her skin was also fair. Whoever stood next to her would become a
foil to her and look darker, less fashionable, and lacking in grace.
Someone spat out, "She would dare to come here? Doesn't she think it's embarrassing?"
"When she wasn't divorced, she would flaunt herself everywhere. When she participates in a banquet,

is an illegitimate daughter, I'm afraid she wouldn't even have a suitable piece of jewelry to attend this
banquet. Based on her love for boasting, she wouldn't have the dignity to show herself, right?" Another
person ranted.
"The Jewell family is truly amazing. Both sides were cheating on each other and having an illegitimate
daughter in the mix. They are truly a match made in heaven," Someone continued.
"Thankfully, your brother had the foresight to divorce her. It would be disgusting to be stuck with a wife
like her," Aurora's close friend said.
Aurora’s lips pulled into a smile while her gaze was filled with smugness." Then, you should put in
some effort. The spot for my sister-in-law is still vacant."
Her female friends were filled with glee, and one of them replied, "Then, we will still need you to pull
some strings for us."
As they were speaking, Aurora saw Jaylene holding onto Trevor when they appeared at the scene.
Trevor whispered a few words to Jaylene before taking a glass of alcohol and walking to the men's
side.
Jaylene was in a light purple satin dress, and she stood majestically with her slim physique. A curtain of
long black hair draped on her shoulders. Her gaze was clear and innocent while her dress was very
simple and elegant.
