How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 108 -

Chapter 108: Chapter 108

Keira Olsen stood still in place.

She clenched her fists tightly, the moonlight casting on her aloof face, coating her voice with a layer of ice, “No need.”

Lewis Horton pondered for a moment before speaking, “Actually, even if he’s not your father, Mrs. Olsen could still possibly be your…”

“Don’t say it,” Keira Olsen interrupted him.

That term “mother” would taint Mrs. Olsen’s reputation!

She lowered her eyes and said slowly, “Though Taylor Olsen may favor me less, he has always been consistent towards Mrs. Olsen, never changing. With such a husband, how could Mrs. Olsen possibly have an affair? Let’s not insult her.”

Lewis Horton’s jaw tensed, wanting to argue, but he remained silent.

Keira Olsen’s lips twisted into a self-deprecating, shallow smile, “I always thought the status of being an illegitimate daughter was already unbearable, but it turns out, it could get even worse…”

Lewis Horton wanted to say something comforting, but Keira Olsen waved her hand, “I want some peace.”

“…Okay.”

Lewis Horton said faintly, stepping back silently, giving her plenty of space.

…

Poppy Hill came to the hospital room nervously, and standing outside the door, she could hear the conversation between Mrs. Olsen and Taylor Olsen, mentioning Keira Olsen.

Mrs. Olsen said, “… after all, you and Keira have a father-daughter bond. She was very worried about you just now, perhaps you should be a bit nicer to her in the future.”

Taylor Olsen, whose bleeding had stopped and vital signs were stable, sighed, “Maybe you should be a bit nicer to Isla Olsen…”

However, Mrs. Olsen suddenly lowered her voice, “Taylor, don’t be like that, you know very well… that when I married you, I was already pregnant, and over the years I hadn’t been able to bear you any children, Keira is your daughter…”

“Don’t talk like that,” Taylor Olsen said with a smile. “When we married, I already said, your daughter is my daughter, Shirley. Over the years, I have kept my word.”

Mrs. Olsen’s eyes filled with touched tears, “You kept your word, but it’s so unfair to Keira, and unfair to you too…”

“Your willingness to leave the hustle and bustle of Clance and accompany me to the humble life in Oceanion has already been more than enough for me; there is nothing unfair about it. Let’s not speak of this again.”

Taylor Olsen chuckled, “Besides, haven’t you been so good to Keira Olsen these years, all in the hope of making amends? Shirley, she’s the result of Poppy Hill’s scheming, I’ve never treated her as my daughter, you really don’t have to do this.”

Mrs. Olsen was stunned.

At the beginning, she might have really had that idea to be good to Keira Olsen, but as time passed and they interacted more, she truly came to like Keira Olsen…

Outside the door, Poppy Hill’s face turned red with anger.

Indeed, she did drug Taylor Olsen to seduce him, and after getting pregnant, she even went forth to have amniocentesis, confirming the child was his. Yet, Taylor Olsen still would not agree to let her in.

It was Mrs. Olsen who took her into the Olsen household afterward.

Mrs. Olsen seemed so kindly, but in fact, her acceptance of her and the child into the home was only due to her guilt towards Taylor Olsen!!

She got all the benefits and the reputation for kindness!

Fortunately…

Thinking about how she just scolded Keira Olsen, and recalling Keira Olsen’s disbelieving face, Poppy Hill felt a perverse sense of relief swelling in her heart.

She wouldn’t let Keira Olsen off, she wanted Keira Olsen to live in pain and struggle brought on by her birth for her entire life!

She would not let Mrs. Olsen off either, she wanted Mrs. Olsen and Keira Olsen, this mother-daughter pair, never to recognize each other for a lifetime!

A crazed smile appeared on Poppy Hill’s face.

…

Keira Olsen didn’t know how long she had been standing.

This was the edge of the steps at the hospital entrance, her entire figure standing in a spot that the light couldn’t reach, watching people come and go at the hospital doorway.

Some joyous, others sorrowful, their faces so vivid.

Her mood, however, was as somber as ashes.

She didn’t know how much time had passed when suddenly, her shoulder grew warm.

Keira Olsen turned her head and realized that Lewis Horton had draped his suit jacket over her, that warmth isolating her from the world’s cruelty.

“Actually…”

Lewis Horton hesitated for a long while, finally speaking up, yet after only two words, he didn’t know how to comfort her.

As he was struggling with his thoughts, Keira Olsen spoke, “I’m okay, don’t worry.”

Lewis Horton was stunned, then saw the girl slowly lift her head, walking from darkness into light, the air of despondence around her gradually dissipating.

Appreciation flashed in Lewis Horton’s eyes.

What had initially attracted him to Keira Olsen was this tenacity of hers.

It seemed as though no matter what, even if she was knocked down, she would instantly get back up.

She wasn’t a frail and powerless dutchman’s pipe; it was as if her slender body harbored endless energy, making her overly enchanting shell seem unattainable and dazzling to the eye.

A barely noticeable smile curled up on Lewis Horton’s lips, as he found a topic, “Miss Olsen, what do you think is the secret that Finley Hill and Connor Hill keep talking about?”

“No rush.” Keira Olsen tilted her head, her expression wild, smiling unrestrainedly, “Connor Hill will tell us.”

Lewis Horton played along, “Oh, I would love to hear the details.”

“You don’t understand Isla Olsen,” Keira Olsen said slowly. “After this is over, she won’t allow a dangerous thing to affect her future.”

Lewis Horton was taken aback, “What do you mean?”

“Just wait and see.”

Keira Olsen teased, “Give it at most half a month, and Isla Olsen will bring about her own downfall.”

Lewis Horton nodded, “I’ll await the good news.”

Neither spoke again; they just quietly gazed at each other.

Tonight was probably the first time Keira Olsen hadn’t felt lonely in the dead of night, as if on the road of life, she didn’t always have to walk forward alone…

Not far away.

After Rebecca Allen had fallen asleep, Mr. and Mrs. Allen were also taking a walk in the hospital.

Quite coincidentally, they arrived at the emergency room’s door.

Just as they were about to walk past, Mrs. Allen suddenly turned her head, staring at Keira Olsen in surprise, “Eh?”

Mr. Allen was startled and followed her gaze.

The night was somewhat dark, and Keira Olsen stood under a streetlamp. The dim yellow light spilled onto the contours of her side profile, adding a halo that softened her sharp brows and eyes.

Especially the way she was looking at Lewis Horton right now, gentle and resolute.

Her neck was slender, her demeanor independent, carrying an air of distinct charm around her.

This scene left Mr. Allen frozen in his tracks.

His mind suddenly flashed back to over twenty years ago, the first time he saw Lady South, who was also aloof from the world.

The woman in her forties was standing sideways to him, gazing at the sky.

The two silhouettes gradually overlapped… And it seemed as if Lady South’s face in his memory became clearer!

Mr. Allen was instantly excited, he quickly took a couple of steps towards Keira Olsen, and instinctively called out, “Lady South!”

Keira Olsen, hearing this address, paused slightly.
