My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire novel Chapter 321
321 Chapter 320
Mrs. Jones looked at Lewis in confusion, then glanced at Keira. feeling like she must have misheard. “What?” a Lewis didn’t want to say anything more.
Keira just smiled and said, “Just listen to him, and have your husband take the contract to Horton Group first thing in the morning.”
Mrs. Jones was perplexed.
She couldn’t help but size up Lewis again, noticing the noble aura of a privileged young man. Despite his sports shirt, he didn’t seem like an ordinary person.
Could he be a member of the Horton family?
As Mrs. Jones thought about this, she saw Keira pick up Amy and sit in the back seat of the car, with Lewis behind the wheel.
Mrs. Jones was speechless.
This person seemed to be Keera’s driver, right?
Or possibly Keera’s husband?
She was really overthinking it.

Mrs. Jones shook her head, bent down to pick up her son, and got into the car to return home.
On the way home, Amy wrapped her arms tightly around Keira; the little girl felt no sense of security at that moment.
In a weak voice, she asked, “Mom, did I cause trouble for our family?”
Hearing this, Keira’s heart melted, and hugged the girl. “No, Amy is the best-behaved.”
The little girl didn’t understand deceit and didn’t know her mother had changed, but she instinctively felt uneasy and clung onto Keira as she said, “Mom, will you abandon Amy?”
“Of course not.”
Keira gently patted her back, and Amy didn’t let go until they got home.
So, that evening, Keira had an extra attachment to her body.
During dinner, Amy insisted on sitting on her lap.

When Keira was dealing with company matters that night, Amy also needed to be there…
When she had finished her work, it was already dark. Keira had just stood up when Lewis came over and stretched out his hand. “I’ll take Amy back to her
room.”
Keira didn’t think much of it and handed Amy over to him.
But perhaps sensing her mother’s scent, Amy immediately started squirming restlessly in Lewis’s arms as soon as she was in them, calling out with her eyes closed, “Mommy, mommy…”
Keira, feeling helpless, had to reach out again and t the child back into her arms.
She carried Amy to her bedroom and after placing he on the bed, the little girl still clung tightly to her sleeve, unwilling to let her leave.
Keira lay down beside her.
After an unknown amount of time, there was a noise at the door, and as Keira turned her head, she glimpsed
Lewis standing there.

The bedroom lights were off, and the dim light from the hallway spilled over him.
The man had just taken a shower, his hair still dripping with water. He wore a robe that was slightly open at the neckline, his dark eyes fixated on her.
Though not a word was spoken, the invitation was clear.
Keira blinked, pointed at the sleeve Amy was pulling on, and didn’t move.
Lewis seemed to understand and walked away.
Keira thought he had got her message and found a comfortable position to lie down, ready to spend the night with Amy.
But just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard a faint noise again.
Slowly turning her head, Keira saw Lewis standing by the bed, bending over, doing something.
Then, she heard a click, and the arm that Amy was
pulling on suddenly felt lighter.
Keira was perplexed.
11:24

321 Chapter 320
Looking down, she suddenly realized that Lewis had taken a pair of scissors and cut open her pajamas and the place Amy was clutching!
Keira was shocked.
Just as she was about to say something, the man made a “shush” sound at her, and then a large hand enveloped her shoulders and legs. Before she knew it, she was being carried away.
Lewis moved quietly, not disturbing Amy, and swiftly carried her out of the nursery and back to the master
bedroom.
Keira asked, “What are you doing?”
“I’m letting you try out the new bed.”
Keira looked at him with a smile, “Really? Just trying out the new bed?”
Both being adults, Keira understood all too well how starving for affection a man like Lewis, after 28 years of singleness, would be once he started indulging.
Lewis’s face remained tense, yet his ears slowly turned
a shade of red.
He really couldn’t take a tease…
11:24

321 Chapter 320
While Keira was thinking about this, she saw Lewis suddenly shed his night-robe. “And try out the person again.”
Suddenly, the lights in the master bedroom were turned off, and rustling sounds filled the room.
Keira thought she was quite fit, but she simply couldn’t keep up with the man…
She didn’t remember when she fell asleep, only recalling the last moments of exhaustion, drifting off as Lewis asked in her ear, “Is the bed comfortable?”
She said, “It’s comfortable.”
She was so close to passing out!
Then she heard Lewis ask, “And what about me?
Comfortable?”
Keira didn’t know what to say.
While she had a good night’s sleep, Mrs. Jones was filled with concern the whole evening.
Her husband, hoping to be seen favorably by the Horton Group, worked late into the night before he

Upon arriving home, he saw Mrs. Jones’s worried face and immediately asked what had happened. Mrs. Jones recounted the day’s events at the kindergarten and began apologetically. “I’m sorry. I might have hindered something important for you.”
life.
Mr. Jones was quite reasonable. “She saved your We can’t just watch her predicament without helping. What you did was right.”
Mrs. Jones felt a warmth in her chest and became even more apologetic.
She nestled in her husband’s embrace. “What happens if we can’t secure the project?”
Mr. Jones comforted her. “If we can’t get it, we’ll continue to be a second-rate wealthy family. What’s wrong? Isn’t the company earning enough for us?”
Mrs. Jones chuckled. “But Keera and that man with her said you should take the contract and sign with the Horton Group tomorrow…”
Mr. Jones couldn’t help but laugh. “How is that possible? I haven’t received any news from my side… Besides honestly, we might not have been chosen

anyway, there’s another company with stronger capabilities that might be a better fit for the Horton Group.”
Mr. Jones sighed, which was why he had to work urgently late into the night.
Mrs. Jones simply nodded in response.
After the two lay down, having only rested for three hours, Mrs. Jones sat up. “Why don’t you try going to the Horton Group? Miss Keera seemed quite certain, not like someone who would speak flippantly…”
Mr. Jones responded with a wry smile to her words. “Without a call from the Horton Group, what’s there to
try?”
Mrs. Jones pushed him. “Just take the contract and give it a try. What harm could it do? Just go and see!”
Half an hour later.
Mr. Jones stood at the Horton Group’s temporary office in Clance, chuckling at himself.
He really was bewitched, why had he listened to his wife and come all the way here?
Mr. Jones looked down at the contract and was about

322 Chapter 321
Mr. Jones was slightly startled and turned around abruptly.
There before him was Tom who, just yesterday, had been giving them the cold shoulder but now
approached him with a full-faced smile, extending his hand. “Nice to meet you!”
Mr. Jones looked at him in a daze, “Mr. Davis?”
Tom said, “Did you bring the contract?”
Mr. Jones said, “…Yes, I did.”
“Good, let me take a look at the contract. If there’s nothing wrong, let’s sign the agreement today!”
Mr. Jones followed Tom into the office in a daze and still felt like he was dreaming when he walked out with the signed contract.
He returned home in a daze.
Mrs. Jones saw his expression and thought the deal hadn’t gone through, so she immediately asked, “What happened? You weren’t chased out by the receptionist,
were you?”
11:24

322 Chapter 321
Mr. Jones handed over the contract to her.
Mrs. Jones glanced at it and she, too, was stunned.
Mr. Jones looked at her. “Tell me, what kind of person is your lifesaver from yesterday, exactly?”
Mrs. Jones touched her chin, pondered for a moment, and couldn’t help looking at him. “Is it because I did a good deed, and this is my reward for being a good person?”
Mr. Jones nearly rolled his eyes. “Do you believe that?”
“No.”
Mr. Jones then said, “Forget it. Whatever their background is, our dealings with them aren’t for personal gain anyway!”
Mrs. Jones was also open-minded. “That’s right!”
The next day, Keira didn’t take Amy to the early
education class.
Before, Keera had sent her there to avoid Howard’s mother, who was always scolding her at home, and later she also sent the child there as a trap for
11:24 –
279
322 Chapter 321
Howard’s mother.
Now that she and Howard were divorced and the house had quieted down, she simply withdrew Amy from that school.
A two-year-old child, who lacked a sense of security so much, needed to stay close to her mother.
Furthermore, since Christina’s scheme hadn’t worked out, she was afraid something else might come up, and she didn’t want Amy to always be aggrieved.
Hearing that she didn’t have to go to school anymore, Amy’s face blossomed into a smile, and Keira stayed home to play with her for a while before receiving a video call from Mary.
Mary placed her phone on the coffee table. “Amy, c give your godmother a kiss!”
Amy then shyly smiled and buried her head into Keira’s
embrace.
Mary couldn’t help but complain. “Look, my goddaughter isn’t even close to me anymore. Keera, it’s all your fault for blocking me for half a year…”
Keira wanted to make some excuses for her sister but
11:24
322 Chapter 321
wasn’t sure what to say when she heard Mary say, “But that’s okay, in the half-year you blocked me, I reflected on myself. I wasn’t considerate enough. Only a person starved of love could be deceived by that scum Howard.”
Mary then looked at the phone. “In the future, I’ll love you even more!”
Keira suddenly laughed, feeling that the friendship between her sister and Mary wasn’t so easily fractured. She really didn’t need to explain anything.
Keira wanted to speak but suddenly heard through Mary’s video call the sound of a door being kicked open with a “bang”…
Immediately after, Mary’s parents rushed in.
Mary was also stunned, and before she could end the
video call, she turned her head just as a slap landed heavily on her face!
“Slap!”
This was from her mother.
Mary covered her face, disbelief in her eyes as she
11:24 –
322 Chapter 321
looked at them. “Mom, what are you doing?”
Her mother’s face was livid, and upon hearing this, she immediately retorted, “What am I doing? Why don’t you tell us what you’ve done?!”
After that, she threw a pregnancy test report in Mary’s
face!
Upon seeing the report, Mary’s pupils constricted slightly, and she looked toward her mother, trying to explain, “I, I…”
“Who’s the father of this bastard child?!”
The angry voice came from her father.
He took a step forward and glared at Mary intensel “Haven’t we taught you to respect and value yourse You cannot do such things! You got pregnant and messed around outside! How are you supposed to get
married now?!”
Mary’s mother began to cry. “That’s right. Are you not going on a blind date with Mr. Horton because of this man?! Are you
confused?!”
Mary looked at them and suddenly clenched her fists. “Dad, Mom, it’s foolish to date and get pregnant, but
11:24
322 Chapter 321
it’s not foolish to marry Lewis, an old widower?!”
Keira, who was beginning to worry for Mary, was dumbfounded.
She silently turned back and glanced at Lewis, who
was quietly watching her and Amy. The “old widower’s” lips twitched.
That was indeed an unmerited disaster.
Keira coughed and continued to watch the video.
Mary had always had a strong presence at home, and her parents lived under her protection, so Keira didn’t think much of it at the time.
But unexpectedly, after Mary said those words, Mar father took a step forward and slapped her again. “Ungrateful creature! Is Mr. Horton the same as ordinary people? If you are so capable, why don’t you sleep with Mr. Horton or Mr. Ellis and have them take responsibility for you?!”
Mary was stunned.
Her father continued to point at her and shouted, “Who will marry you now, looking like this?! If we can’t marry into a wealthy family, how will your mother and
11:24
BAX
322 Chapter 321
I stay in this house in the future?! Even your grandmother will be driven out! She won’t be able to be buried with your grandfather! Mary, do you even understand?!”
Upon hearing this, Mary suddenly laughed. “So, what am I in your eyes? A commodity to trade for glory and wealth?!”
Mary’s mother’s expression froze. “How can you speak of me like that?”
Mary’s father’s face darkened. “No matter what you say, this child must be aborted! And you mustn’t tell anyone about this, understand?”
Mary’s mother then took out an abortion pill from pocket. “We’ve already bought the medicine for you Take it now, Mary. Just do as you’re told. Once you take this medicine, in less than two hours, this
creature will be gone. Then you’ll still be our pure and pristine girl…”
Mary’s eyes widened.
She couldn’t believe what she was seeing, just feeling chills run down her spine.
She had never thought that her own parents would
11:24

322 Chapter 321
treat her like this one day…
Mary looked at them in shock, her hands
subconsciously resting on her belly. “Mom, I won’t take it… I want this child!”
Her mother frowned upon hearing this. “Why can’t you just obey?”
Her father also stepped forward. The man who was always frightened by bodyguards and Mary’s uncle suddenly grasped Mary’s arm tightly. “Mary, don’t blame us. We have no choice. You must take this medicine… You have to marry into a wealthy family…”
Mary, in terror, tried to break free from his grip, but how could a girl’s strength compare to a man’s?
Mary’s father held her fast, even prying her mouth open, not giving her a chance to speak again, while Mary’s mother opened the medicine and forced it into her mouth…
Upon witnessing this, Keira panicked and screamed, “Uncle, Auntie! You can’t kill this baby!”
Mary struggled, tears streaming down, but she
couldn’t break free from her father’s restraint and her
mother’s suppression…
11:24

322 Chapter 321
Mary’s mother, hearing the voice from the phone, said sternly, “Keera, I know you and Mary are good friends, but you don’t understand. It’s a mistake one makes in youth out of impulsiveness, and you’ll regret it later! This bastard child cannot stay!”
Keira saw the pill about to enter Mary’s mouth, wishing she could travel through the video call to get there, but it was already too late…
She could only yell, “This child is Ellis’s!!”

As soon as Keira shouted these words, the person on the other side immediately stopped their actions.
Mary’s mother was stunned, looking at her phone with disbelief. “What did you say?!”
Mary’s chin was grasped tightly, her body held down, forcibly seated in the chair, unable to speak. Tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
Keira then said, “The child is Ellis’s. If you kill the baby, Ellis won’t let you off!”
That was the only way to protect Mary at the moment.
Mary’s mother threw away the medicine in her hand.
Mary’s father also hurriedly let go of Mary, then, shocked, he looked at her belly and exclaimed with joy, “Is this true?!”
Mary felt completely drained and collapsed on the bed.
Her mother quickly stepped forward. “Mary, are you okay? Was your dad too rough? Did he hurt you? Does your stomach hurt?”
00:20

323 Chapter 322
Mary’s father also nodded. “Right, right, the baby is okay, right?”
Mary, still terrified, clutched her belly and looked at the phony faces of her parents who were now expressing concern, and she found it utterly laughable!
She clutched her belly and backed away a bit, putting some distance between herself and them.
Seeing her reaction, her father immediately furrowed his brows. “Mary, don’t blame us. We were afraid you were going down the wrong path. With your looks and your family background, it would be a pity not to marry into a wealthy and influential family! Why didn’t you tell us earlier? If you had told us this was Mr. Ellis’s child, I definitely wouldn’t have treated you like that!”
Mary’s mother was equally oblivious of her wrongdoing, nodding along. “Exactly, why didn’t you tell us the truth? When did this happen? Does Mr. Ellis
know? What’s his current stance on this?”
Mary’s father immediately said, “Does he not want to take responsibility? Mary, don’t be afraid. I’ll go to

your uncle right away and demand accountability from the Olsen family! We’ll make Mr. Ellis marry you!”
His hands rubbed together excitedly, as if glory and riches were already within his grasp.
Mary’s mother was even more overjoyed. “Yes, yes, besides, we’ll demand an ample dowry from them. Our Mary is marrying Mr. Ellis… Indeed, Ellis is a better choice than Mr. Horton’s second marriage! Mary, you really do have great foresight!”
Mary watched as her parents were about to leave and suddenly cried out in alarm. “You must not go to him!”
Her parents were taken aback and turned their heads.
to look at her.
Mary was trembling, overcome with a sense of shame
She could almost imagine Ellis hearing this news, the mocking smile on his lips, and that disdainful look in his eyes…
How could she have such parents?
Her eyes reddened as she looked at them. “If you dare to tell Ellis, I’ll immediately terminate the pregnancy!!”
Her father immediately frowned. “What are you talking

323 Chapter 322
about, Mary?”
Mary’s mother also said bluntly, “You’re not allowed to abort this child! How else will you marry Mr. Ellis?! Mary, do you have something wrong with your head?!”
Mary felt there was no point in talking with them
anymore.
She glared angrily at both of them, feeling deeply powerless, and sat defeated on the bed, saying, “In any case, if anyone goes to Ellis, I’ll terminate the pregnancy immediately!”
Mary’s mother was hesitant as she exchanged a look with Mary’s father, both of them asking with
puzzlement, “What do you mean by this? Is it not Ellis’s baby?”
Upon hearing this, Mary saw her mother glance again at the abortion pills, and Mary clenched her fists tight
How ridiculous she felt now!
All she wanted was to pick up the dignity she had once shed, piece by piece, to regain her self-respect in front of Ellis, but her parents were always pulling her deeper into the abyss.
00:20

323 Chapter 322
She let out a bitter laugh and remained silent.
She looked at them stubbornly.
Keira, worried that Mary would be at a disadvantage, quickly said, “It is Ellis’s child. She’s still in the early months of pregnancy, and Ellis won’t acknowledge the baby. Even if you go to him, it’s no use. You’ll have to wait until she’s three months along before you can perform amniocentesis.”
Mary’s parents immediately scowled, “Mr. Ellis doesn’t acknowledge it? This is troublesome… What did you do? How did you make Mr. Ellis not acknowledge it? Did you mess up?”
Why wouldn’t he acknowledge the baby?
Why did Ellis think she was a loose woman? Wasn’t it because to secure her parents’ status, she had to drin with men at the dinner table again and again to pull in projects…
And now, here they were, questioning what she had done.
Mary’s tears finally spilled from her eyes as she closed them in despair. “Get out, get out!!”
09:20

323 Chapter 322
Mary’s father was startled, “Don’t be agitated. It’s not good for the baby if you get agitated. I’m leaving now…”
Mary’s mother also said, “Mary, even if Mr. Ellis doesn’t acknowledge the baby, it’s his, and he won’t be able to deny it. Don’t worry, and don’t get excited… I’m leaving
now.”
Mary’s parents left her room and helped her close the door.
Mary lowered her head and covered her face with her
hands.
Keira called out to her, “Mary, are you okay?”
Mary buried her face in her knees, and her muffled
voice came through. “I want to leave this place. I want to go to your home…”
“Okay, I’ll come pick you up right now.”
Keira stood up immediately and handed Amy over to the nanny.
The clingy Amy was very sensible and knew by her expression that she was busy, so she didn’t cling to her.
<
323 Chapter 322
Keira then put on her outerwear and went straight
downstairs.
Lewis followed her. “I’ll take you there.”
He was worried about Keira driving as it could cause problems, especially since he had never seen her drive a car before.
But Keira suddenly stopped and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Can you… go?”
Lewis clenched his jaw and pursed his lips.
That place was the Davis residence, where his mother’s. family resided. Although Mary had moved out after splitting from the family, they still lived not far from each other. The Davis family’s ancestral home was right next to theirs.
People from the old house would often come over…
Worried that Lewis might feel uncomfortable seeing the Davis family, Keira opened the driver’s door. “I’ll go by myself.”
But before she could get in, Lewis stopped her.
He held her shoulders and took her away, seated her if the passenger seat, and only then did he briskly
09:20
O
323 Chapter 322
walk to the driver’s side and get into the car.
Keira was about to say something when Lewis said, “I don’t feel safe with you driving.”
Keira was taken aback for a moment before realizing that Lewis was afraid that those people would come after her again. No wonder he was acting like a bodyguard, staying by her side every day, and even neglecting his work.
She no longer opposed his kindness and nodded.
The car started quickly and arrived at the Davis family’s home.
At the entrance of the Davis family’s home, a graceful figure appeared.
Mary’s parents stood up quickly when they saw the visitor and asked respectfully,” Shirley, why are you here?”
Shirley was a person of Mary’s father’s generation, the legitimate daughter of the first branch who had married into the Horton family of Oceanion. The marriage was initially arranged as an alliance, but Nathan, that old man, had a secret child outside, and knowing this Shirley decisively had the
323 Chapter 322
seven-month-old child in her womb delivered by
Cesarean section, abandoned the child at the Horton residence, and returned alone to the Davis family.
She was Lewis’s mother!
Her status in the first branch was exalted, and even Ken had great respect for his older sister.
Upon hearing this, Shirley replied indifferently, “I heard Mary was unwell; I’ve come to see her.”
Mary’s parents nodded and watched as Shirley climbed the stairs.
Before she reached the upper floor, the sound of a car stopping suddenly came from outside, followed by Keira and Lewis getting out of the car.
Shirley’s gaze swept over Keira and Lewis, and just she was about to look away, she froze, her eyes lock
onto Lewis!
Keira had originally intended for Lewis to wait in the car, but Lewis had just witnessed the obstinacy of Mary’s parents, he worried that Keira might not be able to bring Mary out by herself, so he decided to accompany her inside.

323 Chapter 322
As soon as they entered, they suddenly came face to face with Shirley.
Her aloof aura was so distinctive that one couldn’t help but take a second look.
Lewis’s gaze met hers unexpectedly and without
warning…
324 Chapter 323
Lewis’s footsteps came to an abrupt halt as if he were spellbound. He stared in shock at the woman before
him.
She left soon after he was born.
This was the first time that the mother and son had
ever met since then…
As a child, Lewis had longed for his mother and once secretly looked at her photos. Though he no longer needed her as he grew up, his exceptional memory
hadn’t let him forget her.
He recognized her at first glance.
In that moment, Lewis felt as if the world was spinning, and a nameless gloom and ferocity sudder surged into his heart. His gaze fixed on her, filled wit
resentment…
But in the next instant…
The woman he was staring at simply shifted her gaze indifferently and turned to go upstairs.
Her attitude made Lewis feel a stifling sensation in his
0020
324 Chapter 323
chest, even more upsetting than before.
She probably didn’t care about his persistent
memories at all.
Indeed, she didn’t care about her son at all.
She didn’t care about his fragile body when he was born at seven months and heartlessly abandoned him at the Horton family. He almost died on the sick bed.
The violence and gloom that imbued Lewis started to fade away, leaving only a profound silence.
In this world, it seemed he was neither cherished by his father nor loved by his mother…
Keira sensed the change in his emotions and was hesitating over why this was happening when Mary’s mother also sensed Lewis’s abnormality and ste forward, blocking his line of sight.
Mary’s mother said, “Keera, is this your friend? Wh are you staring so intensely? You can’t look at peop like my sister-in-law in that way. She’s of such high standing…”
Sister-in-law…
Keira suddenly understood something and saw the
<
<
324 Chapter 323
lonely aura covering the man before her, a wave of pity and anger rising in her heart.
She was angry that Shirley didn’t even recognize her
own son…
She felt sorry for how distressed Lewis must be feeling at this moment.
Without regard for Keera’s public persona, she walked straight to Lewis and took his hand.
Lewis was slightly startled and turned to look at her.
Keira nodded at him.
Lewis looked away, his voice hoarse. “I’m fine.”
His restrained demeanor was hardly that of someone who was fine.
After patting Lewis’s hand, Keera turned to Mar mother. “I’m going to find Mary.”
Mary’s mother nodded. “Alright, Keera, you’re a go friend of Mary’s. Please go and persuade her so she doesn’t do anything rash. It would be foolish. This ch can help her marry Mr. Ellis, and her future will be bright!”
09:21

324 Chapter 323
Keira maintained a stern face upon hearing this and then turned to Lewis. “Wait here for me.”
But Lewis stubbornly followed behind her, reiterating, “I’m fine.”
Keira had no choice but to take him upstairs.
As soon as they arrived at Mary’s room, they heard Shirley’s cold voice come through. “Mary, if you don’t want to marry Ellis, then don’t keep the child. You can’t let a child tie down your life.”
Right after she spoke, Keira heard a low snort of laughter beside her.
She couldn’t help but feel a surge of pity for Lewis again.
Then she knocked on the door, not looking a ley but speaking directly to Mary. “Mary, I’ve com
you.”
“Okay.”
Mary had already packed a few clothes and came straight out upon hearing the words.
Keira took her suitcase, about to carry it downstair when Lewis took the suitcase from her hands and

turned to go down.
It was then that Shirley suddenly said, “Stop.”
Lewis stiffened.
Shirley approached, her gaze sweeping over him once more, before settling on Keira. “Thank you for taking care of Mary.”
“It’s no trouble. She’s my good friend.” Keira’s voice carried a hint of hostility. “I wouldn’t be so heartless as to leave Mary behind.”
Her words carried an unspoken implication.
Whether Shirley caught the hint or not, she merely nodded slightly.
Keira then helped Mary downstairs.
The three of them, each with their own thought the house without uttering a word.
With Shirley present, Mary’s parents didn’t dare to make too much of a scene. Seeing that Mary was goi to move out, they didn’t do much to stop her; they jus looked a bit sheepish.
Keira left with Mary, feeling relaxed, and they heade

back to the South family residence.
This small villa of the South family might only have
three floors, but it had five bedrooms.
After cleaning out one of the guest bedrooms, Mary moved straight in.
Looking at Mary, then at a downcast Lewis, Keira
found herself at a loss for whom to comfort first.
While she was still hesitating, Lewis suddenly said, “I’m fine.”
He repeated “I’m fine” three times, making Keira feel that she had thought too much.
She said to Mary, “Mary, you should get some good rest first.”
Only then did she take Lewis back to the m bedroom. After closing the door, she went st his arms, attempting to drive away his loneline her warmth.

But Lewis had always been someone who could control his emotions. He had been this way since childhood and was accustomed to that pain. Aside from some initial emotional turbulence, he had already calmed
down.
There were already too many pitiable people in this
house.
First, there was Amy, and now Mary had arrived.
If he didn’t act a bit more pitiable himself, where
would she find the time for him?

slowly say, “I’ll go too… is that okay?”
Mary didn’t know what to say.
She couldn’t help but poke Keira. “Your little boyfriend here seems to be a bit too clingy.”
Keira was caught between laughter and tears.
In the evening, after handing Amy over to the nanny, the three of them got dressed up and attended the celebration banquet.
Lewis didn’t bring a suit and was still dressed in his casual sportswear. They pulled up to the banquet,
Keira and Mary got out of the car, and Lewis went to park.
He was treated just like a driver.
Yet he didn’t look the slightest bit offended.
Keira and Mary waited at the entrance for a mom until Lewis parked the car and came over, then the three of them entered together.
The celebration banquet was attended by people from the Olsen Group, the Davis family, and Keera
Technology, so there was no requirement for evening
gowns, and both women wore business attire.

Upon entering, they needed to sign in with the staff.
Keira wrote Keera’s name.
Just then, a luxury car pulled up brashly at the entrance, and two uninvited guests emerged. They were Christina and Victoria.
Dressed in fancy evening gowns, they instantly became the center of attention as soon as they stepped out of the car.
Employees of the Olsen Group who hadn’t yet entered immediately surrounded them, exclaiming, “Miss Christina, Miss Victoria, long time no see!”
Victoria responded with a slight smile.
Mary whispered to Keira. “This Victoria was prously low-profile, but now she’s taken a high-rankin
position in the Olsen Group. It’s amazing how fortunes can rise. I heard it’s because there was marriage contract between the Horton and Olsen families years ago. I bet she’ll eventually marry tha divorcee, Lewis.”
Keira didn’t know what to say.
She had just finished signing her name and stepped

aside.
Mary was still craning her neck, looking at the spectacle, when she said to Lewis, “Your turn to sign.”
The “divorcee” Lewis gave her a cold glance and then quickly signed his name at the registration.
Now it was Mary’s turn.
She finally averted her gaze back to the registration area, casually scanning upward.
She still didn’t know the name of Keera’s little boyfriend…
But when she saw the signature above, she froze.

What was that name?
Why did it look so familiar?
Was that “Divorcee”?
Mary was stunned.
What kind of nonsense was that?!
Who would have such a name?
It couldn’t be right, could it? The writing was so cursive, like some kind of artistic script. It was completely unrecognizable!
Confused, Mary simply scrawled her own name below the messy signature and followed Keira and Lewis
inside.
Once the three of them entered, Lewis found a secluded corner to quietly observe the surroundings.
After the incident where Keira was harmed last time, combined with the mysterious kidnapping of Jodie South, he was now very worried about Keira’s safety.
He wished he could attach himself to Keira’s leg-

wherever she went, he would follow!
Thus, he was constantly observing the situation
around Keira.
Keira and Mary weren’t far apart; both holding champagne, they left the crowd to find a quiet place to
stay.
Christina and Victoria entered surrounded by a throng of people, their gazes landing on Mary and Keira.
Christina said resentfully, “Do you see them? Those two, relying on some collaboration, act like they’re above everyone! And my brother tells me to tolerate it! A small company’s boss should be coming to us, right? Why should I hold back?”
Victoria was younger, but she seemed more comp than Christina. She smiled and said, “I’ve inquired about this project. It turns out Keera Technology h indeed come up with advanced research that no one
the scientific community has surpassed yet, which is why our brother is asking you not to offend them.”
Christina was taken aback. “They’ve got some skills? Then what do I do? Just swallow my pride like that?”
Victoria laughed. “If you don’t want to do that, there’s

actually another way.”
“What way?”
Taking a sip of red wine from her glass, Victoria suggested, “Keera Technology is indeed too small to fit
big-time researcher, huh? If we could poach that
research bigwig to Olsen Group or to your company, wouldn’t Keera Technology be nothing but an empty shell?”
At that, Christina’s eyes lit up. “Right, why didn’t I think of that? How much salary can Keera Technology offer him? I’ll offer double… no, ten times!”
After saying that, Christina asked, “Do you know how to contact their big-time researcher?”
Victoria laughed. “I do.”
She took out her phone immediately. “I looked at contract and took photos for you.”
Christina’s excitement grew as she browsed through the photos, spotting the name of the research personnel: N.
That must be a code name, right?
But there was also his email and phone number.

Christina entered the phone number into her phone, thought for a moment, and sent a message. “Hello, I am from Olsen Group. Tonight is the signing banquet of Keera Technology, Olsen Group, and Davis Corporation. Are you here?”
On the couch next to her, Keira’s cell phone vibrated slightly.
She picked it up and saw the message.
