My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

Chapter 241-250

It wasn’t like that!

“My sister, she couldn’t possibly be dead!”

Keira looked straight at Howard, her voice trembling. “Mrs. Horton passed away?”

Howard glanced at her and sneered. “Why are you so worked up? It’s as if you knew Mrs. Horton…”

Howard’s mother immediately asked, “The Horton family? The number one prestigious family in Oceanion? Weren’t they saying the family head is quite young? How could she just die?”

Howard immediately said, “I heard she was kidnapped, thrown into the sea, and drowned alive. I also heard that when the body was recovered, it was all bloated! It seemed to have been in the water for a full 20 hours!”

“What a pity, to finally marry into a wealthy family only to have such a short life. Howard, can our family attend this kind of funeral? We don’t really know the

“What a pity, to finally marry into a wealthy family only to have such a short life. Howard, can our family attend this kind of funeral? We don’t really know the

Horton family, do we?”

Howard immediately said, “Mom, you’re silly. There’s

no reason to turn away visitors at a funeral. I heard that Mrs. Horton was from an ordinary background, so at that time, we could just say Keera was her classmate, and we came to offer our condolences upon hearing the news. Wouldn’t we be able to get in then?” Howard’s mother immediately got excited. “I was wondering why you insisted on bringing this jinx; so that’s the reason. But why say Keera was her

classmate? Wouldn’t it be more convenient to say you were her classmate to get closer?”

“Keera and Mrs. Horton are the same age. I’m three years older than them!”

ard sneered. “Keera, you’re my wife, and you won’t me touch you?!”

Keira looked steadily at him, “I’m not Keera.”

Howard immediately started sizing her up, but after a look, he sneered, “Keera, what tricks are you playing now? If you’re not Keera, then who could you be?! Get up!”

After saying that, he stepped forward again, grabbed Keira’s hair, and jerked it forcefully!

Keira subconsciously tried to strike back, grabbing his wrist to throw him over her shoulder, but suddenly realized she hadn’t regained her strength; her hands couldn’t muster any force.

She was dragged down from the bed by Howard and fell straight to the ground.

“Mommy, Mommy!” Amy immediately rushed over. She

and shouted, “Daddy is a bad man! Don’t you touch Mommy!”

Howard sneered but ignored her and said to the middle-aged woman. “Mom, hurry up and help her get ready. I’ll go start the car!”

Howard’s mother cursed as she opened the wardrobe,

on the bed. “Elsewhere, having a daughter-in-law means blessings, but Howard married you! What a misery indeed! I have to serve you, this jinx, and that little loser too!”

…marrying into a family…

Keira keenly caught those words, but her fingers were held by a soft little hand; she looked up to meet Amy’s gaze, “Mommy, does it hurt? I’ll blow on it and it won’t hurt…”

The little one puffed up her cheeks and blew on her head.

This gesture made Keira sad.

She hurried to her feet.

At this moment, Howard’s mother came over,

Keira immediately helped the child up, only to see a

bruise forming on her arm. The little one’s eyes welled úp with tears, but she dared not let them fall.

Keira immediately glared at Howard’s mother.

Howard’s mother sneered. “What are you looking at? Who hasn’t fallen down when they were little?”

Leaving that comment, she then turned to Amy. “Cry, cry, cry! That’s all you know how to do. If you dare cry again, you’ll see how I beat you!”

Those words frightened Amy into hiccupping sobs, as

she stammered, “Amy won’t cry, won’t cry…”

Then the tiny figure trembled slightly, widened her eyes, and slowly lowered her head.

Keira followed her gaze and realized that a two-year-old child couldn’t control their bladder yet, s her pants slowly became wet and dampened the floor beneath her.

Keira had never cared for children before, and just as she was about to say something comforting, Howard’s mother’s roaring voice came over/ “Who let you wet yourself?! You useless trash! How shameless can you

be!”

251 She’s Not Keera

Amy’s face twitched as large tears rolled down.

Howard’s mother immediately extended her hand to slap her. “Swallow those tears! Who allowed you to cry? Do you feel wronged? What do you have to feel sad about? This jinx has been lying in bed for two days now, and it’s all been me taking care of you. Even a dog knows not to pee indoors, how are you worse than a dog!”

“Smack!”

Keira grabbed her wrist to stop her from hitting the child, feeling full of rage.

Amy was only two, still a child who understood nothing!

Howard’s mother, however, effortlessly threw her off

Keira’s gaze grew icy. “You wouldn’t dare!”

Howard’s mother sneered. “Why wouldn’t I dare?

wasn’t the first time she had been violent!

Shaking with anger, Keira hadn’t expected her sister to

be bullied to this extent by a loutish man and his

mother!

She took a deep breath, “I’ve said it, I’m not Keera! If you dare touch me, I’ll make you regret it!”

Howard’s mother sneered, “Keera, have you lost your mind? To come out with such nonsense, if you’re not

Keera, then tell me, who are you?!”

Keira was about to state her name when the door was pushed open again, and Howard appeared outside,

Howard’s mother cursed. “Isn’t it all because of this

Howard then sneered at Keira. “You don’t want to help,

After saying that, he picked up Amy and quickly walked out. “Follow me if you still want your daughter!”

Keira was shocked.

Narrowing her eyes, she glared at Howard from behind.

After a moment of hesitation, she followed.

Keira followed behind Howard and only realized it was a small villa after they exited the door.”

There was a seven-seater van parked in front of the villa, worth about a hundred thousand.

With no family driver, Howard tossed Amy onto the back seat before taking his place behind the wheel.

From this, it could be inferred that the Keera family belonged to the middle class, with a stable income, but not much. They had a slightly above-average lifestyle.

But they were not from a wealthy family.

As she pondered, she saw Howard’s mother catch up.

he threw her luggage in the back and sat down in the

assenger seat.

Howard looked at Keira impatiently. “Aren’t you getting in the car yet?”

Keira looked down quietly, got in the car, and sat in the back, holding the terrified and trembling Amy.

She rummaged through her luggage for a clean pair of pants, helped Amy change into them, put her in

11:30

252 Horton Family

diapers, and then placed Amy in the safety seat next to

her.

Amy sobbed, not daring to make a sound.

Keira felt around in her pocket and pulled out a mobile phone.

She turned on the screen and saw a photo of Keera and Amy together.

This was Keera’s mobile phone…

Keira paused slightly, finally having the time to sort through the events that had happened.

After chatting with Keera in the restaurant’s private room, she was knocked out by a strange fragrance, and when she woke up, she and Keera were on a sunken shin

at time, her and Keera’s luggage seemed not to be the boat.

After that, the two of them struggled desperately, escaped, and finally, when Keera pushed her onto a plank, it was certain that she had no mobile phone on

her!

Later, Keera sank into the depths, a big ship came

along, and after Keira was saved, she completely passed out.

When she woke up again, she had become Keera.

Her sister’s phone was in her pocket…

Amy mentioned the doctor, who had administered iron

to Keira so she wouldn’t die of iron-deficiency anemia. She also said that Keira had fainted in a swimming pool…

All of this was very strange!

At the time, Keera had said, “It’s them. It must be them

who found us! They want to kill us!”

She also said, “I’m already in such a wretched state. My life is so miserable. Why won’t they let me go? No, no, they want to kill you, Keira, it’s you… It was me who

knocking them out, they could have just tied her up on the sunken ship. There was no need to bring Keera as

well!

Moreover, she and Keera had a very distinctive feature on their faces, the mole at the corner of their eyes!

A discerning person could tell they weren’t the same

person.

So, who was behind the scenes?

Who wanted to kill them?

And who saved them?!

How exactly did she end up at Keera’s home?

All of it was like a tangled mess, making Keira’s mind muddled, unable to think clearly.

Amy said, “Mommy, it’s June 26th.”

Keira promptly entered “0626” on the lock screen, and sure enough, she unlocked the phone!

She opened Keera’s text messages only to find the inbox empty, not even a single spam message.

But her sister had clearly exchanged messages with

her…

So, her sister would delete each message after sending

one?

Keira then opened her sister’s WhatsApp, but aside from some daily life chats, there were no clues either.

Keira threw the phone aside, disappointed.

Howard was driving and didn’t notice her action.

Howard’s mother, however, was sitting in the

ger seat, looking at her through the rearview r, and upon seeing this, she sneered. “The mpany belongs to you, and Howard is helping you make money. Why do you look so reluctant? Why is it so hard for you to do something when asked?”

Howard gave a snort. “Keera doesn’t like socializing.

She felt it was beneath her!”

“Beneath her? Acting as if she’s some kind of noble

heiress? She even dared to get you to join her family through marriage, boasting herself so highly, but in the end, it’s just a small company-does it even make two million a year in profit?”

Howard’s mother looked toward Howard. “You marrying into the family was such a loss! She must have deceived you!”

Keira narrowed her eyes, countering sarcastically, “Howard, did Keera really deceive you when you got

married?”

Howard choked, changing the topic. “Enough! Why bring up the past?”

Seeing his reaction, Keira knew she had guessed correctly.

Although she didn’t have much contact with Keera, she

a gentle and kind woman.

The year she took a husband into the family, she surely must have made her family circumstances clear to Howard!

She had already checked; the place they were in was Clance, and although the small villa was in the

suburbs it was still worth twenty million.

252 Horton Family

If the company’s annual income was two million, that would be enough to support their family expenses.

Keera had no reason to exaggerate when she wanted to take a husband into the family.

Howard’s mother was relentless. “Keera, when we get to the Horton’s home later, make sure you behave well. Don’t be cold to everyone. Otherwise, what’s the point of Howard taking you out to socialize?! Remember

that!”

Keira looked down.

“Look, there’s that deadpan face again!” Howard’s mother complained to Howard. “Useless in everything! She just knows how to make me angry!”

Howard coffed. “Mom, don’t worry. She comes from a

ckground and has never seen what a real amily is like. She thinks she’s the best. Such a a well! Once she sees the luxury of the Horton ly, she’ll know how to ingratiate herself with thers!”

Howard’s mother heard this and laughed, looking at Keira. “That’s right. She’s always cooped up at home. How could she be worldly?”

Their ridicule didn’t bother Keira in the slightest.

They soon arrived at the Horton residence.

Outside the Horton residence, white cloth hung everywhere, and many had come to pay their respects.

The car hadn’t even entered yet, as the road outside was already clogged with vehicles.

Howard could only slowly move forward with the flow

of traffic…

Howard’s mother stared enviously at the large estate ahead. “My God, is this entire community owned by the Hortons? Their family is so wealthy!”

Howard’s eyes also shone, “Yeah, it’s also my first time seeing such an illustrious household. Today is a rare opportunity to have a look inside.”

Seeing that she wasn’t looking around everywhere, but seemed to be making a fuss over nothing, Howard became angry, “Keera, let me tell you, if you don’t behave later, don’t blame me for not being polite to

you!”

No sooner had he spoken than Amy, who had been asleep for most of the trip and had just woken up, immediately said, “Daddy, don’t hit Mommy!”

Keira’s gaze sharpened in an instant upon hearing this.

Amy had a pair of pretty eyes, very similar to hers, and there was a flash of timidity and panic in them when she spoke, which was especially heart-wrenching.

Keira touched her head. “Don’t worry, Amy, no one will ever hit… Mommy again in the future.”

She didn’t want to tell the little child that her mother

might have already passed away…

Howard’s mother just scoffed. “Oh, that sounds so
