My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

161 Restored Photo

The night had deepened.

The moon was large tonight, hanging low in the sky.

After Keira stepped outside, a chill hit her, but she only felt exhilarated. The malice from being called an illegitimate daughter gradually dissipated without her noticing.

She looked ahead at Mr. and Mrs. Allen and

approached them. “What’s the matter? Is there an issue with Rebecca?”

“No,” Mrs. Allen said, “As we were leaving, we saw… that Poppy Hill woman creating a scene at the gate of the Horton family. We thought it would be better to intervene.”

Keira was startled, then promptly replied, “Right, okay.”

The Allens had returned after leaving, and she thought they had some important matter to discuss, but it turned out to be just that.

As she was pondering this, Mrs. Allen spoke again. “We just called Frankie, asking him to bring the repaired

photo over quickly. Do you have time tomorrow

evening? We would like to invite you for dinner and show you the photo.”

Keira was taken aback.

It was the second time tonight that Mrs. Allen had brought up that photo, asking her to see it…

Although she didn’t understand the reason, she knew Mrs. Allen meant her no harm, and she nodded right away. “I’m available.”

“Good, then Miss Keira, see you tomorrow evening.”

Mrs. Allen patted her hand and then turned to drag Mr. Allen out with her.

Mr. Allen asked quietly, “Why don’t you tell her your suspicion?”

“Without proof, what’s there to say? If the guess is wrong, wouldn’t that just upset Keira needlessly? Frankie will arrive tomorrow, and we can talk about it when we have the photo in hand in the evening. It’s better than anything. There’s no harm in waiting another day.”

Mr. Allen laughed. “Okay, whatever you say.”

11:40

Their low murmurs drifted faintly, making it hard for Keira to catch what they were saying. She didn’t know what they were talking about, but seeing them huddle together and whisper with laughter somehow gave off a sense of serene happiness.

Keira thought of how Taylor always carefully held Mrs. Olsen in his arms, going to great lengths to please her, all of which seemed too deliberate and servile.

Their relationship wasn’t harmonious like that of Mr. and Mrs. Allen.

In fact, from a young age, everyone could see that Taylor cherished Mrs. Olsen, treating her like a delicate treasure, yet Mrs. Olsen was rather aloof and didn’t seem to care as much about him.

Everyone said it was because of Keira and Poppy’s

existence that made Taylor feel guilty in front of Mrs. Olsen…

Keira shook her head, feeling that she might be overthinking.

The Olsen family’s interactions were indeed quite strange.

Mr Olson was proud yet she was able to tolerate the

11:40

161 Restored Photo

presence of Taylor’s illegitimate daughter and mistress. Taylor disliked Keira, feeling that her presence affected his relationship with Mrs. Olsen.

But Mrs. Olsen could be very gentle with Keira…

Keira was somewhat confused about the dynamics of their marriage.

“What are you thinking about?” Lewis’s deep voice came from beside her.

Keira then said, “What do you think we’ll be like when

we’re old?”

At that moment, Mr. and Mrs. Allen had already walked to their car. Mr. Allen opened the door and raised his hand to shield the top of Mrs. Allen’s head as she got in, seemingly worried she would bump her head.

Mrs. Allen turned back and gave him a slight smile.

Lewis saw their interaction, a trace of envy flickering in his eyes, “We’ll probably be like Mr. and Mrs. Allen then.”

Keira was about to say that Lewis didn’t have the good temper of Mr. Allen, but before she could speak, she

11:40 c

161 Restored Photo

heard him say, “A son and a daughter will be perfect. How many children would you like to have?”

Keira was perplexed.

That was a quick jump.

She coughed and quickly changed the subject. “Let’s go and take Grandma back first”

Lewis nodded.

The two returned to the banquet hall.

Nannies busied themselves around, cleaning up after the party, and the bustling cacophony suddenly quieted down, making the hall seem spacious.

Keira, however, preferred the silence that followed when the music had ended and the guests had dispersed.

She and Lewis approached old Mrs. Horton, and Keira held onto old Mrs. Horton’s arm, “Grandma, let’s go

home.”

“Okay.”

Old Mrs. Horton affectionately patted her hand, then glared fiercely at Nathan.

11:40

With a cold face, Nathan said, “Mom, don’t look at me like that. Your granddaughter-in-law comes from the wrong background and is an illegitimate daughter. Even if she escapes today, if she does anything in the future that shames the Horton family, I’ll show absolutely no mercy!”

After these words, he snorted and turned to go upstairs.

Old Mrs. Horton, furious, pointed at him from behind and cursed. “You disrespectful son! You’re so biased toward your eldest son, so I’ll be on my youngest grandson’s side! Hmph!”

Having said this in a petulant, childlike manner, she grabbed Keira’s hand. “Moreover, marrying my granddaughter-in-law is like a blessing from our ancestors. My granddaughter-in-law would never bring shame to the Horton family! Lewis, tell me. Isn’t that right?”

Lewis laughed as he glanced at Keira. “Yes.”

As the three of them left the living room and walked toward the back courtyard, they heard the sound of a car horn from up front, followed by Fiona saying, “Miss

11:40

<

161 Restored Photo

Isla has been brought back.”

That was within their expectations.

Isla was pregnant, and the police couldn’t possibly detain her. They would only give her a verbal warning and a fine, then ask her to apologize to Keira and Lewis. With that, the matter would be over.

Keira didn’t care, but when she lay down at night and took out her phone, she found that Isla had sent her many insulting messages.

She must be pregnant and emotional and added to the huge embarrassment of the night, she was somewhat on the edge.

In the messages, she cursed Keira.

“Keira, you illegitimate daughter, you were born a bitch! What makes you think you can marry my uncle?! You did it on purpose, didn’t you, trying to be better

than me?!

“Let me tell you, it’s impossible! You’ll never surpass me in this life! You are an illegitimate daughter, and you can never become the hostess of the Horton family! The household management rights of the Horton family are still in my hands!

11:40

“Do you really think that by marrying my uncle, you can become someone else? No matter how capable you are, you can’t change your origins, or the original sin in your blood!

“And, you haven’t gotten pregnant after two years of marriage! I see it as the punishment for your low bloodline! I’ll soon be able to give birth to the genuine heir of the Horton family! You’ll never compare to me!”

Keira didn’t know what to say.

Looking at the phone messages with the glaring words “illegitimate daughter,” she clenched her jaw and typed back. “Are you sure that the child in your belly has the

surname Horton?”

The response promptly ceased, and there was no reply for a long time.

Keira lowered her eyes, suddenly feeling that those two words had affected her mood…

The night passed without incident, and time moved swiftly to the next day.

When Keira woke up, she picked up her phone to find a message from Rebecca. “Miss Keira, my brother has

now. Come find us when you wake up! Dad and Mom

say they have a surprise for you to see!”

Keira saw the message and replied, “Driving from Clance should take at least six hours, right? What time will your brother arrive?”

Rebecca’s message came back quickly, “Around noon! After my brother got the photo this morning, he sent it to our parents. They were so excited when they saw it and said they needed to talk to you in person.”

Keira was slightly startled.

With the advancement of mobile networks, much communication happened over the phone now, and personal contact had lessened.

What could they possibly need to discuss in person?

And it seemed the photo was related to Lady South…

Lady South was Mrs. Olsen’s mother…

This matter must be very important!

Keira responded to the message. “Okay.”

But just as she finished getting ready and stepped out, she heard a piece of news that surprised her.

11:40

“To the horse ranch?”

Keira was slightly taken aback.

Standing before her, Melissa said with a smirk, “Yes, there’s a business meeting taking place at the horse. ranch today. Lewis, as the head of the Horton family, is definitely going to attend, and as his wife, you should be there with him.”

After that, Melissa cheerfully took Isla’s hand. “Of course, Jake and Isla will also be there. Isla, you can ride horses, can’t you?”

Isla nodded with a smile. “Of course, I used to go horseback riding with Dad as a child, and I even raised a little pony… Keira has seen it too. I was scared to ride

back then, so it was Keira who led the horse around

the ranch for me.”

Keira’s expression darkened

Horse riding has always been a trend among the wealthy elites.

When Isla was seven years old, she finally got her own little pony. Wearing her riding outfit, she looked handsome and adorable as she circled her pony, every

11:40

And little Keira could only help by holding the leash.

Isla would ride and berate her at the same time. “Hurry up, run faster! You’re so slow. Did you not eat breakfast this morning?”

Keira really hadn’t eaten breakfast.

Since waking up, seven-year-old Keira had to serve Isla, carrying her schoolbag behind her, with Poppy never allotting her time for breakfast.

Her most hated activity was Isla’s horseback riding lesson every Saturday.

Isla felt like a little princess, while Keira herself was…

Just as these thoughts crossed her mind, Isla spoke again. “Keira, today we’ll go together. I’ll need your help getting on the horse. You have no idea how uncomfortable it’s been getting on a horse these past years without being at the Olsen family.”

Upon hearing this, Keira clenched her fists abruptly.

Melissa already asked, “Can Keira still help you mount the horse?”

Isla nodded. “Yeah, when I first learned to ride and couldn’t get on it was Keira who knelt down and

11:40

162 Photo?

served as my mounting block…”

Keira turned sharply toward her, a sharp look flashing

in her eyes.

That was her humiliating past.

It wasn’t out of her own will that she knelt down. It was Poppy pushing down on her head, letting Isla trample on her pride time and time again, grinding the

defiance in her bones underfoot…

She tensed her jaw, about to speak, but Isla had already lowered her head. “When I think about it, I was young and naive back then, Keira, I hope you won’t

mind it…”

Keira scoffed.

Young?

Indeed, Isla was young then, but she had been a bad apple right from the start!

She was very aware of what Poppy’s sore spot was and understood precisely how to make Keira’s life more difficult.

Just like now, while Isla was apologizing, her eyes seemed poisoned with hatred for Keira, which was

why she would say such things.

Keira looked at her sharply. “You misspoke, didn’t you?”

Isla bowed her head immediately. “Keira, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have poked at your childhood pain. It wasn’t

intentional. It just reminded me of when we were

kids…”

Melissa immediately said, “Keira, Isla didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t be so aggressive! Besides, as a child, you were an illegitimate daughter, so wasn’t it natural for her to despise and bully you?”

These words made old Mrs. Horton smack the table hard. “From now on, in this family, I forbid anyone from uttering the words ‘illegitimate daughter’ again! My granddaughter-in-law isn’t an illegitimate daughter!”

Melissa pouted. “The state doesn’t care what I say. Does the Horton family no longer have freedom of speech? Or does it mean that Lewis’s wife is so

precious that we ordinary people can’t even utter the words ‘illegitimate daughter”?”

This left old Mrs. Horton at a loss for words.

11:40

But Keira suddenly laughed. “Sister-in-law, I didn’t mean to stop you from using those three words.”

Melissa scoffed. “Then when you said Isla misspoke, wasn’t it because she mentioned your childhood? Isn’t

that the same as not allowing her to say it?”

Isla immediately said, “Keira, I’ve apologized. and it

wasn’t intentional. You…”

“Slap!”

Suddenly, Keira raised her hand and landed a forceful slap on Isla’s face, leaving the latter immediately covering her face in shock.

Melissa was the first to react, her voice rising sharply. “Keira, what are you doing? The Horton residence isn’t a place where you can act recklessly!”

Isla, too, teared up. “Keira, was it necessary to hit me just because I said something wrong? You…”

Keira scoffed. “You said something wrong? Every sentence you’ve spoken is wrong. Isla, the Horton family values manners above all. Calling me by my name so directly, is this how you show respect to your elders?!”

11:00

Isla was suddenly speechless at her words.

Keira then turned to Melissa. “Sister-in-law, it’s fine for you to defend your daughter-in-law, but even I, the ‘illegitimate daughter, know not to call elders by their names. As a lady of your standing, you should be clearer about that, right? So, as the elder, I was right to discipline the youngster to give her a lesson, to prevent her from making mistakes in front of outsiders. You shouldn’t take issue with that, should

you?”

Melissa was left speechless as well.

Keira sneered again and looked at Isla. “What were you trying to say? Say it again, correctly!”

Isla was so furious that her chest heaved, but Keira ha the upper hand. Although reluctant, Isla could only say spitefully through gritted teeth, “…Auntie Keira, at the riding club today, please help me onto the horse again!”

After she finished, a deep voice came from upstairs. “Since you know she’s your auntie, you should

understand even more that there is no reason for a senior member of the family to help a junior onto a

11:40

729

horse!”

Lewis looked somberly at Isla, a hint of menace

flashing in his eyes.

Isla stepped back in fright.

Only then did Lewis turn to Keira. “You don’t have to go to the event if you don’t want to.”

Melissa immediately said, “That wouldn’t be good, would it? You only revealed her identity last night, and if she’s absent from such an important event today, those who don’t know any better might think Mrs. Horton isn’t presentable, which could embarrass you!”

Lewis said sternly, “Apparently, my brother’s

reputation depends on my sister-in-law. That’s your business. At least, my reputation doesn’t depend on my

wife!”

He looked again at Keira. “Do you want to go?”

Keira was about to speak when her phone vibrated.

Opening it, she discovered a message from Rebecca. “How infuriating! After my brother arrived in

Oceanion, he didn’t come home. Instead, he said that a bunch of young masters from Clance had come, and

11:40

162 Photo

he went to the riding club! He also said he arranged to meet you in the evening, and it would be the same if he returned later tonight, which is too much!”

Keira narrowed her eyes.

She hadn’t expected Frankie Allen to attend this gathering at the riding club.

She thought of the photo the Allens had mentioned several times, and taking into account Rebecca’s message that insisted she must see that photo…

Keira suddenly curled her lips into a smile. “Then let’s

go.”

Isla’s eyes immediately flashed with a hint of gloom!

She lowered her gaze to hide the excitement within and exchanged a look with Melissa, both of their eyes glittering with shrewdness.

What was something that poor ordinary people couldn’t even come into contact with, but for the upper class, it was as commonplace as household meals?

Of course, it was the equestrian club!

Equestrian lessons were prohibitively expensive, and an average family simply couldn’t afford them. Moreover, a batch of foals was worth hundreds of

thousands. Even after purchasing, there were still costs of keeping them in a ranch, with the minimum annual expense being in the region of two hundred thousand or more.

Ordinary middle-class families simply couldn’t afford

Therefore, only those who were wealthy and powerful

could afford horseback riding lessons!

Today, they had to make Keira lose face at the equestrian club, giving Nathan an excuse to pull Lewis down from the position of family head!

For today’s gathering, which consisted of a group of young people, Melissa and Oliver wouldn’t attend. She patted Isla’s hand and gave her a warning look.

Isla clenched her fists, thinking of Melissa’s disdainful and warning look when they left the house that morning, and felt waves of shame and anger!

What Melissa said was still ringing in her ears. “Marrying you was the worst thing that had happened to Jake! You were taken away by the police last night, making the first branch of the family lose all its face! If you don’t regain our honor today and give Lewis and his wife a piece of our mind, I’ll have Jake divorce you!”

Isla bit her lip and followed Jake toward the direction of the parking lot.

Jake was indifferent to her all the way, his gaze firmly fixed on Keira, who was walking ahead, his expression inscrutable.

After the groun arrived at the parking lot. Isla was

about to go to the car she shared with Jake when a bodyguard stopped her. “Mr. Horton has asked you to

see him.”

Isla was surprised and walked over to Keira and Lewis,

clueless.

Today, Keira was dressed in a white equestrian outfit, looking poised and graceful. The white attire

accentuated her tall, slender figure, making her look vibrant and commanding.

Lewis, on the other hand, hadn’t changed his clothes

and was still in a black suit. His cool demeanor and

firm contours added a certain charisma to him.

Isla clenched her fists, her face smiling. “Uncle, did you need something from me?”

Lewis’s narrow eyes fixed on her, the darkness of his gaze harboring feelings that were difficult for Isla to decipher, making her feel intensely uncomfortable.

Then, she heard Lewis speak. “Since you have been disrespectful to your seniors on several occasions, it’s time I taught you some manners. Now, open the car door for your aunt.”

Isla’s pupils constricted sharply at these words!

She looked incredulously at Lewis but saw no hint of jest on the man’s face.

Turning to look at Keira, she saw an expression of surprise as well.

Her last hope was to seek help from Jake, but he only

frowned and remained silent.

Isla clenched her fists.

A surge of intense humiliation welled up inside her.

How could this be….

Ever since they were young, Keira had always been her little slave. If she told Keira to go east, Keira wouldn’t dare go west… Keira had no dignity in front of her and had to keep her head lowered.

Isla was always high above, firmly pressing down on

her.

How dare that woman climb over her head now?!

Isla wanted nothing more than to tear Keira’s face apart, eat her flesh, and suck her blood!

But she dared not…

She could only forcefully suppress all her humiliation,

11:41

bow her head, walk to the side of the car, and barely squeeze out a few words through gritted teeth. “Aunt Keira, please get in.”

Keira, with her gaze lowered, went straight into the car

and sat down.

Isla finally closed the door for her.

The car slowly started, leaving the angry Isla behind. Only then did Keira turn to look at Lewis and say, “Thank you.”

She knew that when Isla spoke just now, Lewis must have heard her from upstairs, and that was why he had deliberately humiliated Isla a moment ago-to restore Keira’s dignity.

Her gaze dropped as she said slowly, “Actually, she just learned to ride a horse and had me lead the horse for her. Once she could gallop, she didn’t need me anymore.”

After all, she couldn’t run as fast as the horse…

She smiled, “I was quite envious of her riding at that time. Later…”

Before she could finish, Lewis took her hand, his tone

11:41

filled with indulgence. “If you think horse riding is fun, then I’ll teach you today.”

Keira blinked, swallowing the rest of her words, and just curled her lips into a slight smile, “Okay.”
