How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 95 -
Chapter 95: Chapter 95
Keira Olsen hurriedly stopped them, “Don’t say it, don’t break any rules.”
Holly Sims paused.
Then, she coughed to cover up her embarrassment and said, “Actually, I listened to the recording, and it’s not related to the case, so I can tell you about it. At that time, I just…”
She fell silent, and then admitted frankly, “I just wanted to make things difficult for you.”
Keira Olsen: “…”
Helplessly, she placed a hand on her forehead, “Then go ahead, tell me.”
...
Holly Sims, still looking somewhat embarrassed but with a serious face, said, “The will mentioned ‘the eldest grandniece, the secret is also known by Connor; you must make sure his tuition is covered!'”
“…”
The room fell silent for a moment.
Keira Olsen furrowed her brow. Although she had suspected that Finley Hill wouldn’t mention any secrets in his message, and also speculated that Connor Hill must know something, she still found the message very strange.
She approached Finley Hill intending to buy the secret for five million.
If she knew the secret, why would she still need to pay for Connor Hill’s tuition afterwards?
Or could it be that Finley Hill never planned to sell the secret to her?!
Keira Olsen shook her head, grateful for her own arrangements.
She hadn’t pointed the finger at Connor Hill as the murderer right after the crime took place because that would have likely sealed his lips forever.
Now, she was just waiting for Connor Hill to not withstand the media pressure.
However, Holly Sims was somewhat worried, “Keira, don’t mess this up. If he throws away his phone, you’ll lose the most crucial evidence, and then you can’t turn this case around!”
Keira Olsen frowned upon hearing this.
She was taken into custody right after the incident and didn’t have time to instruct Samuel Morgan on what to do. She wondered if Connor Hill had already changed his phone…
“He won’t.”
The deep voice belonging to Lewis Horton suddenly chimed in, followed by him nonchalantly saying, “After the incident, Connor Hill immediately discarded his phone and replaced it with an identical one. That phone, I’ve already had someone retrieve it.”
Keira Olsen’s eyes lit up, and the corners of her lips curved into a smile, “Mr. Horton is impressive.”
Since Lewis Horton had taken over the company, he had heard countless flattering remarks. However, at that moment, the girl’s simple and straightforward praise made his cheeks turn slightly red.
He, too, raised a faint smile, “Miss Olsen flatters me too much.”
Holly Sims looked at one and then the other, suddenly saying, “You two, one calls him Mr. Horton, the other Miss Olsen. I thought you two weren’t familiar with each other, but you seem to be so in tune. So are those terms of address your way of showing off your couple’s intuition?”
“…”
The room suddenly went quiet again.
Keira Olsen saw Lewis Horton’s gaze withdraw and a suspicious blush spread across her cheeks.
It was one thing for others to call her Miss Olsen, but the man’s low voice seemed to brush lightly over her heart, stirring a tingling sensation…
She didn’t see that Lewis Horton’s ears had also turned red.
…
At this point, Connor Hill still hadn’t realized what he was about to face.
He left the hospital and quickly returned to school.
Upon arriving at the dormitory, he handed the twenty thousand in cash he had received to his roommates with a beaming smile.
One of them who took six thousand quipped sarcastically, “I told you, when you borrowed money, where did that confidence come from that you could pay it back in a few days? Turns out, you had someone to back you up!”
Connor Hill hadn’t yet grasped the meaning behind their words when another wealthy classmate who had taken the money threw it on the ground, “Pah! I don’t want this dirty money. The money earned by betraying one’s own father, Connor Hill, do you really have the nerve to spend it?”
Connor Hill was stunned, “What do you mean?”
“What do I mean?” The person handed him a cellphone, “See for yourself!”
Connor Hill took the phone and saw the footage Josh had captured of Samuel Morgan giving him the money, which had already gone viral online. Now everyone was denouncing him as an unfilial son who agreed to a letter of forgiveness for money!
Connor Hill waved his hand, “It’s not like that, I didn’t take her money. This twenty thousand was originally borrowed from you guys, but the police were holding it. She just gave it to me for emergencies…”
“Hahaha.” His roommates didn’t believe him, “If you want to say that, then let’s just go with that!”
Connor Hill thought they believed his explanation and heaved a sigh of relief.
One of them looked at the few thousand dollars thrown on the ground by the rich kid and picked it up, saying, “Don’t throw it away, treat us to a meal!”
The rich kid said in disdain, “Fine, let’s go.”
Connor Hill followed them, ready to leave together. But when he reached the door, he was stopped, “What are you doing?”
Connor Hill was stunned, “Aren’t we going to have a meal?”
“Ah, forget it, we wouldn’t feel at ease eating with you. We might be disturbed by reporters. You just stay in the dorm, ha~”
The rest of the roommates left arm in arm, leaving Connor Hill alone in the dorm.
His gaze grew somewhat gloomy.
He pursed his lips and didn’t make much of it; after all, with a father like that, he was used to the strange looks from others.
He took out his cell phone and dialed Isla Olsen’s number.
As soon as the call connected, Isla’s gentle voice came through, “What’s wrong?”
Connor Hill didn’t speak, feeling low.
Isla sighed, “I saw the comments online. Actually, it’s good. It can force Keira Olsen to confess sooner, and then you’ll be safe.”
Connor Hill just hummed in response.
Isla consoled him, “Connor, hold on. If you can’t bear it, the whole thing will be exposed. You can’t go to jail. If you went to jail, what would I do?”
Connor Hill’s eyes softened.
Having such a father, he indeed suffered immensely. The neighborhood and his classmates all looked down on him.

Only Isla had been like a ray of light shining into his world since middle school.
She would bring him breakfast, tutor him when he struggled with his studies, and tell him not to mind the gazes of others.
His admission to Oceanion University was all thanks to Isla!
Her gentle and generous nature, like a girl-next-door, inspired his youthful admiration.
So, when she appeared before him, saying his father had threatened her, demanding five million, that was why he became unusually furious.
His father could bully anyone in the world, just not her!
That was why Connor Hill had planned to kill Finley Hill and frame Keira Olsen for the murder!
Connor Hill had always sought Isla’s affection in vain, but now things were different. He had killed for her, so…
Connor Hill looked down, asking, “When can we be together?”
Isla was silent for a moment, then spoke softly, “Soon. The Horton family is about to call off the engagement with me. When that happens, as a woman who’s broken off an engagement, my parents will be able to accept us being together…”
“Really?”
Connor Hill’s eyes lit up, “Can you come see me now? I miss you…”
Isla, “Connor, I’m still busy…”
“What’s so important that it takes precedence over me?” Connor Hill looked at the empty dorm, his gaze growing fierce, “Isla, before my dad died, he told me your secret!”
Meanwhile.
In the hospital, Keira Olsen and Lewis Horton were eavesdropping on their conversation.
Hearing this, Keira Olsen raised an eyebrow, Finley Hill really did tell Connor Hill the truth.
The next moment, however, Isla spoke in disbelief, “Connor, don’t talk nonsense. What kind of secret could there be between your dad and me?”
Connor Hill scoffed, “Of course, it’s about you and Keira Olsen!”
