How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 21 -

Chapter 21: Chapter 21

As soon as Tom Davis finished speaking, Lewis Horton had already opened the divorce agreement Kiera had sent over on his computer.

He quickly skimmed through the agreement, his eyes landing on the property division clause.

After seeing the contents, he was slightly surprised.

Seeing this, Tom Davis craned his neck to look at his computer screen and scoffed, “Isn’t that woman being ridiculous? She’s not letting you take any of her property… What can you take from her? Her Ant CreditPay debt?”

Lewis Horton looked down and asked, “What did you find out?”

“Boss, we found out that Kiera realized you were married only a few days ago when she and her boyfriend went to register their marriage. This divorce agreement seems to be for the purpose of getting a divorce as quickly as possible, as if she really had no idea.”

...

At this point, Tom Davis changed the subject: “But I actually think this is too deliberate. We checked her out, and after she left the Olsen Family, there’s a lot we can’t find! Boss, don’t you find that strange? Why would an ordinary person hide themselves?”

Lewis Horton’s eyes were half-closed, thoughtful, “So, you think this matter is related to her?”

“Exactly! As for her purpose, it’s unknown.”

Lewis Horton: “Anything else?”

Tom Davis scratched his head: “It’s been two years, and our whereabouts were unpredictable at the time, we really… don’t have any clue, maybe we can only wait for Old Mrs. Horton to remember something one day.”

Lewis Horton cast a glance at him.

Tom Davis hurriedly lowered his head: “It’s our incompetence, we will continue to investigate.”

Lewis Horton printed two copies of the divorce agreement, stood up, and walked out, “Have you made contact with Researcher Nora?”

It was said that Researcher Nora was close to developing a clinical drug for Alzheimer’s disease.

Lewis Horton wanted to use the medicine on his grandmother as soon as possible.

Tom Davis hung his head even lower: “Researcher Nora is elusive, and because of her research, she’s being watched by all the major biotech companies, making her even more cautious…”

Feeling the chill emanating from Lewis Horton, his voice got lower and lower: “Boss, rest assured, I will definitely make contact with her!”

…

Just after Kiera finished dinner with old Mrs. Horton, she received a WhatsApp message from Lewis Horton: “I’m downstairs. Come down.”

She used taking out the trash as an excuse to go downstairs and saw the familiar black stretched Bentley. She got in the car directly.

Lewis Horton handed her the divorce agreement: “I have no objections. Sign it.”

His dark eyes stared straight at her, thinking she would find an excuse to refuse.

But he saw the girl sign both copies of the agreement without hesitation and even asked him, “Shall we divorce tomorrow?”

Lewis Horton’s gaze deepened, “In such a hurry?”

Kiera: “I’m dying of urgency.”

The company was eager to go public!

Lewis Horton scrutinized her for a moment: “Okay.”

Kiera also reminded him, “Tomorrow morning then. Bring your ID card, household registration book, and marriage certificate. We’ll meet at the courthouse.”

Lewis Horton nodded, but his expression suddenly changed.

Suddenly, Old Mrs. Horton had come downstairs without them knowing, her face pale as she looked at them.

She clutched at her chest, her voice trembling, “Are you two getting divorced?”

Then her eyes closed and she collapsed to the ground.

“Grandma!”

…

Outside the VIP ward of the First Hospital.

“The patient is now out of life-threatening danger.” The attending doctor said solemnly, “Old Mrs. Horton can’t be subjected to any more emotional shocks. You must not make her angry!”

Hearing this, Kiera thought of the emergency measures that had just been taken on Old Mrs. Horton and still felt a little scared.

She looked towards Lewis Horton standing beside her.

The man’s face was expressionless, seemingly very calm.

But when the doctor said “out of life-threatening danger,” he unclenched and relaxed his shirt collar, slowly sitting on the hallway bench, his hands clasped on his knees, trembling uncontrollably.

At that moment, a nurse’s voice came from the ward: “Old Mrs. Horton, you’re awake!”

Lewis Horton rushed into the ward immediately.

When Kiera followed in, Old Mrs. Horton had already opened her eyes.

Looking at Kiera, she spoke in a hoarse voice, “My granddaughter-in-law, I dreamt you and the brat were getting divorced. It’s not true, is it?”

Keira Olsen didn’t speak, but Lewis Horton interjected, “It’s not true.”

“So, no divorce?”

“No divorce.”

“Give me your household registration book and marriage certificate.”

“Okay.”

Lewis Horton was always responsive to her requests.

Old Mrs. Horton then looked towards Keira Olsen, “Granddaughter-in-law, the brat isn’t lying, right?”

Keira Olsen thought of the doctor’s advice and fell silent for a moment, “It’s true.”

Only then was old Mrs. Horton satisfied.

Although she had been overcome with emotion for a while, she would still stay in the hospital for observation tonight.

Keira Olsen and Lewis Horton stayed to keep her company in the ward.

Dusk fell.

Keira Olsen lazily sat on the sofa browsing her phone.

She was writing a pure English document about clinical drug research on Alzheimer’s disease; she had been struggling with a technical issue in the concluding work.

She needed to consult some biomedical literature.

While pondering, a new message suddenly appeared on WhatsApp:

Puppy: [Miss Olsen, wait until grandma’s condition stabilizes before getting a divorce.]

This request was inescapable.

The divorce agreement was already signed, and their assets would have nothing to do with each other after this. Her marital status was still married, which wouldn’t affect the company going public, so it didn’t really matter when the divorce happened.

Keira Olsen: [Okay.]

Lewis Horton stared at these two characters on his phone and narrowed his eyes: [Do you have any other conditions?]

Keira Olsen: [As soon as grandma is well, we can proceed with the divorce quickly.]

Lewis Horton frowned and suddenly felt this woman was unfathomable.

Old Mrs. Horton on the sickbed looked at Keira Olsen and then at Lewis Horton.

The two of them barely exchanged words.

This wouldn’t do.

Old Mrs. Horton suddenly said, “Brat, I want to arrange a job for my granddaughter-in-law at Horton Group!”

If they went to work together every day and were constantly seeing each other, wouldn’t their feelings develop?

Lewis Horton paused slightly: “Okay.”

He was especially agreeable tonight.

But old Mrs. Horton was worried again: “What job should I arrange?”

Then, an idea struck her: “Granddaughter-in-law, I’ll make the arrangements! You’ll go to work with the brat tomorrow!”

Keira Olsen blinked her amorous eyes and said, “Okay.”

She suddenly remembered that Horton Group’s database was extensive, and it might just have the literature she needed!

Lewis Horton still had a meeting, so he left the room with Tom Davis.

Just as they reached the corridor, Tom Davis said, “No wonder that woman signed the divorce agreement so readily—it turns out she summoned old Mrs. Horton downstairs. This marriage is basically unbreakable!”

He then looked at Lewis Horton: “Boss, she’s even coaxed old Mrs. Horton into getting a job at Horton Group, there must be a plot! Why did you agree?”

“How can we expose the fox’s tail if we don’t keep her under our eyes?”

A sharp light flashed through Lewis Horton’s eyes.

For grandma’s sake, he couldn’t possibly get a divorce now.

As for whether that woman was innocent… let’s see what her purpose is for going to the company!

In the hospital room.

Keira Olsen lay on the sofa, when suddenly she heard old Mrs. Horton’s voice: “Granddaughter-in-law, let me tell you a secret…”

Keira Olsen immediately inquired, “What secret?”

Could it be that old Mrs. Horton had remembered something else?
