261 Help!

Taylor halted; he put down that bleeding hand and looked again at Mrs. Olsen, meeting her calm gaze, knowing that any further argument was useless.

He clenched his fists, letting out a bitter laugh. “Shirley, I did it all for you!”

Mrs. Olsen felt she was going insane. “For me, you wanted to kill my daughter? Taylor, you maniac! You…”

The next moment, Taylor was on top of her, pinning

down both of her hands.

Mrs. Olsen had been unconscious for two full days; she now lay there powerless, looking at Taylor as he suddenly leaned in, panic rising in her voice. “You, what are you going to do?”

“Shirley, we’ve been husband and wife for 22 years, and you’ve never let me touch you… I’m not going to do anything; I’m just exercising my rights as a husband!”

After saying this, he buried his head in the nape of her

neck!

261 Help!

At this moment, he trembled with excitement

throughout his body!

No one knew what it felt like for such repressed love, when it was finally about to be obtained, after so many years!

He took a deep breath, showing a twisted and satisfied smile.

Mrs. Olsen struggled. “Taylor, you’ve lost your mind! Let me go!”

“I haven’t lost my mind!”

Taylor said with suppressed agony, “To melt your heart, I’ve waited for 22 years! Even a stone should have warmed up by now, but you haven’t… Shirley, you’re the one who’s too heartless!”

Mrs. Olsen closed her eyes. “When you first wanted to be with me, I told you, my heart would never stir for

you…”

Taylor laughed. “I did say that all I wanted was to be with you, that seeing you every day was my greatest happiness. But Shirley, people change… When I got to see you every day, I wanted more… Especially when I

always thought how wonderful it would be if that child

was ours.”

Mrs. Olsen was pinned down by him, unable to move her body.

But hearing these words, she suddenly understood something. “You knew early on that Poppy had

switched the babies?!”

Eyery baby born would have a bracelet.

In theory, such an error was impossible in hospitals. Poppy was struggling even to afford meals back then, so how could she have had the means to do such a

thing?!

By now, Taylor had nothing to deny anymore.

He lowered his eyes. “I just hinted to her that only if the child was yours, I would acknowledge it; otherwise, hers was just a bastard. It was her idea to swap the babies, and I was just helping her cover it up.

Otherwise, with so many nurses in the hospital, what if they saw her?”

“Maniac, you maniac!!”

39

261 Help!

Mrs. Olsen was so furious she grit her teeth, tears. rolling down her face.

She could never have imagined that this man, who had always been so accommodating and seemingly devoted to her, who had been by her side for more than 22 years, taking up almost half of her life, could do such a thing!

“I am a maniac, but you drove me to this madness.”

After uttering those words, Taylor started to tear at

her clothes.

A chill passed over her body, and Mrs. Olsen felt an overwhelming sense of shame and rage.

She struggled fiercely, but was utterly unable to break free from his oppressive grasp…

Taylor seemed to be seeking years of retribution from her body, torturing her bit by bit…

Yet he never went through with the final act…

What was meant to be an intimate act between lovers

only made Mrs. Olsen feel wave after wave of coldness.

Taylor looked at her. “Shirley, it’s been many years

261 Help!

since you last did this. Do you… want it?”

In Mrs. Olsen’s eyes, however, there was no trace of

desire.

She was still so lucid.

She looked straight at Taylor. “I just feel disgusted.”

The word “disgusted” made Taylor stiffen slightly.

He let out a cold laugh and suddenly stood up.

Mrs. Olsen immediately breathed a sigh of relief, eeling that at least this man wasn’t completely heartless and deranged.

But in the next instant…

“Slap!”

A vicious slap landed across her face, leaving Mrs. Olsen feeling dizzy, and her vision blurred!

the Olsen family! Hahaha…”

10

261 Help!

Upon hearing these words, Mrs. Olsen’s vision flashed intensely with the situations Keira faced at home…

The glimpses she had occasionally caught…

Poppy would slap Keira without any reason, or withhold food just as arbitrarily.

And that was only what she had seen; she had heard from the servants that, in private, Poppy was even more ruthless!

She had also heard about a whip Poppy owned, used specifically to lash Keira…

The helpless child, devoid of self-preservation, would curl up, hoping only for Poppy to be in a good mood and spare her…

Those painful memories made Mrs. Olsen clench her fists tightly. “Taylor, you monster!”

She tried to rise from the bed, aiming to rush to the

door.

But Taylor caught her around the waist!

The door to the ward was right before her eyes, yet she couldn’t get out at all!

14:49

261 Help!

Mrs. Olsen yelled toward the door, “Help! Nurse, help!”

Taylor just laughed and said, “You were so agitated just now; I’ve already informed everyone that you couldn’t handle your daughter’s passing and that you’re not in a good mental state. Shirley, keep yelling; even if you scream your throat raw, no one will come…”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Olsen felt her strength leave her, and she collapsed to the floor.

Taylor loomed over her from above.

In the past, he had always looked up to her, but now, this woman had finally fallen from her pedestal.

A flicker of excitement arose within him.

If he could tame her…

Just then, a cell phone rang.

Mrs. Olsen turned her head sharply, looking toward her own phone-it was a call for her!

As she moved to grab it, Taylor snatched her phone, finding that Sam had sent her many messages on WhatsApp.

“What’s up?

1449

261 Help!

“Talk to me.

“Are you okay?

“I’m going to the hospital to see you!”

Seeing she hadn’t responded for a while, Sam sent her a voice message on WhatsApp, but she didn’t pick up, and now he was calling her.

He turned fiercely to Mrs. Olsen. “After all these years, you still have his number!”

ar came to a screeching halt, and he jumped anning frantically toward the upstairs ward!

262 Something’s Wrong

Uncle Olsen’s face was etched with urgency as he rushed upstairs to the hospital room without pause.

Mrs. Olsen never asked for his help.

The last time she did, it was because her daughter was

in trouble.

And now she was asking for help again… something must have gone wrong again!

He had been frequently sending her messages and calling her, but Mrs. Olsen hadn’t replied or answered. Was the killer who murdered Keira back to kill her

too?

This thought accelerated Uncle Olsen’s pace even

more.

He pushed open the doors to the hospital room with both hands and just as he was about to enter, he saw Taylor blocking the doorway.

Uncle Olsen stopped in his tracks.

Taylor slowly said, “Sam, what brings you here?”

14:40

262 Something’s Wrong

Uncle Olsen asked anxiously “Where is Mrs. Olsen?”

Taylor coughed before responding, “She’s taking

shower.”

Uncle Olsen was taken aback.

Taylor then showed an embarrassed expression.

a

“Shirley has been sick for a long time and hasn’t bathed in days. She just woke up and is now taking a shower. It’s not convenient for you to enter…”

Uncle Olsen’s gaze fell upon the VIP room’s bathroom.

Through a frosted glass door, the sound of running water could faintly be heard.

He couldn’t see inside the bathroom.

Mrs. Olsen, in disarray, had her hospital gown torn to

shreds. Her mouth was stuffed, and her wrists and

ankles were bound, making it impossible for her to

move.

Hot water poured down, soaking her entire body.

She tried to emit faint cries for help, but they were drowned out by the sound of the water.

Outside, Uncle Olsen hastily withdrew his gaze, but

14:49

262 Something’s Wrong

something felt off. “She just sent me a message asking

for my help.”

Taylor nodded. “Right, we sent the message to you together.”

He pointed outside.

Uncle Olsen took a step back.

After Taylor stepped out and closed the door, he looked straight at Uncle Olsen. “You and Shirley had agreed to never see each other again. The last meeting was already a violation of that agreement. Shirley has just lost her daughter, and she’s not in a good state of mind. She asked me to tell you, can you please go back to Clance immediately and never come to Oceanion again?”

Uncle Olsen was stunned by these words.

He instinctively looked toward the hospital room

again.

Taylor, however, blocked his way once more, “Sam, this is her only wish and request now. She hopes you won’t stay to revel in her misery.”

Uncle Olsen clenched his jaw tight, gripping his fists.

14:49

262 Something’s Wrong

Taylor continued. “You just promised her that you

would agree to any request. Sam, are you going back on your word?”

Uncle Olsen immediately looked at him. “You saw the messages between me and Mrs. Olsen?”

Taylor said, “I’ve been married to her for 22 years, and our relationship is deep-seated. We have no secrets

Even to know if she was doing well, he had to ask

Lewis to check for him.

Olsen felt Mrs. Olsen was truly heartless…

she had always been this way.

e hadn’t changed.

hinking of this, Uncle Olsen took two steps back and

forced a bitter smile, his voice tinged with a hint of

262 Something’s Wrong

loss. “Alright, I’ll leave this place. If Mrs. Olsen needs any further assistance, feel free to ask.”

Taylor nodded. “Thank you, Sam, for your care. Now that Keira has met with misfortune, Shirley is

extremely worn out. As long as you don’t come to

disturb her peaceful life again, my wife and I will be

satisfied…”

My wife….

Uncle Olsen felt as if an arrow had pierced through his heart once more.

He managed a faint smile, nodded, and turned to leave.

Watching him leave, Taylor revealed a meaningful smile. Only then did he go back inside, locking the

door behind him.

Next, he walked to the bathroom door, pushed it open, and turned off the tap. He took a bath towel from the side, and began drying Mrs. Olsen’s hair.

“Shirley, make sure you’re dried off thoroughly. Don’t catch a cold…”

His voice was as gentle as it had always been, yet Mrs.

14:49:

262 Something’s Wrong

Olsen shivered intensely!

Taylor carried her out of the bathroom and then placed her on the hospital bed, removing her damp nightgown and tossing it into the nearby trash can.

After drying her off with a bath towel, he noticed the startling whip marks on the pristine skin of Mrs. Olsen’s back.

He immediately took out the ointment and gently started to apply it on her.

He said tenderly, “Shirley, does it hurt? Let me blow on it, and it won’t hurt anymore…”

Mrs. Olsen closed her eyes in pain, and the cloth that

had been in her mouth was removed. She asked in a

low voice, “Taylor, why don’t you just kill me.”

“How could I bear to kill you when I love you so much! Shirley, everything I do is to prevent you from leaving

me…”

Taylor meticulously treated the wounds on her back and then took out her regular clothes. “Shirley, I’m taking you home. It’s inconvenient here at the hospital with so many people around…”

262 Something’s Wrong

Mrs. Olsen’s eyes suddenly lit up.

If she could leave the ward…

Just as she thought about this, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her arm!

Mrs. Olsen turned her head and saw a syringe there, then felt her body go limp and fell into Taylor’s

embrace.

“What have you… done to me…”

Her tongue felt heavy, too weak to force the words

out.

Taylor smiled. “Shirley, this is a muscle relaxant. It’ll help you relax so you can be a good girl and listen to

me…”

Mrs. Olsen’s pupils constricted.

She watched helplessly as he dressed her like a puppet on strings and then picked her up and strode out of the room.

A nurse saw them and immediately asked, “Mr. Olsen, what’s wrong?”

Taylor sighed. “Shirley just woke up and said she

262 Something’s Wrong

wanted to go home. She doesn’t want to stay here, so I’m taking her back…”

The nurse nodded. “Mr. Olsen, your love for Mrs. Olsen is so deep. Mrs. Olsen, you should cheer up. If something were to happen to you, what would Mr. Olsen do? You have no idea, last time when you fainted and almost didn’t wake up, Mr. Olsen stayed by your side without eating or drinking. Je moved everyone in the hospital!”

After that, she looked at Taylor. “Mr. Olsen, you must also take care of yourself.”

Taylor nodded gently. “Don’t worry, I won’t be so foolish. I need to take care of Shirley, so we can grow old together…”

Listening to these words, Mrs. Olsen suddenly understood something.

The feelings Taylor had for her over the years might be real, and that was why he managed to deceive

everyone so well!

X

He didn’t only fool the outsiders, but even she had failed to see through the darkness in his heart!

So how could anyone suspect that he was the

262 Something’s Wrong

murderer of Keira?

All he could do was watch in dismay as Taylor carried

her downstairs and into the car.

Nobody noticed, but in the parking lot, Uncle Olsen

frowned as he watched them leave.

After a while, Uncle Olsen opened WhatsApp and found his young friend. “Little friend, something doesn’t feel right about Mrs. Olsen! Can you please pay her another visit?”

263 Meeting Again

Ellis saw Uncle Olsen’s expression and couldn’t help himself from asking, “Uncle, since Mrs. Olsen said she didn’t want to see you, why don’t you just go back? She’s heartbroken now, and your presence here is not making things any better.”

Uncle Olsen glared at him.

Ellis immediately realized that his comment might have

been too harsh.

He coughed and then said, “You just mentioned something was amiss, so what is it that’s not right?”

Uncle Olsen lowered his eyes. “Miss South has always been strong-willed. Her daughter has died, and the murderer hasn’t been found. Would she ask me to leave? When she sent me the message, my first thought was that she would want me to avenge her daughter.”

Jodie South was never a weak character.

Her health wasn’t good, and she was fainting frequently, but a person’s nature wouldn’t change.

263 Meeting Again

Ellis couldn’t help but ask, “Then why don’t you just barge in and ask her directly?”

Uncle Olsen gave him a sideways glance.

Ellis immediately understood something. “No way, no way, have I stumbled upon something? Ha! Uncle, you’re not afraid of anything, but you’re afraid of Mrs. Olsen getting angry?”

Uncle Olsen was speechless.

He wondered what he should do with this idiotic

nephew.

He did fear that it was Jodie’s wish for him not to

interfere, and if he disobeyed and barged in, Jodie might end up hating him.

Uncle Olsen silently sighed and looked down at his phone.

Unexpectedly, after sending out the message, there was still no response from the other side.

It was just like last time when they made plans but he had to rush off with Jodie to the sea to search for someone, and while waiting for the retrieval process, he remembered the appointment and sent her a

203 Meeting Again

message.

The young friend also didn’t reply at all.

At the time, he thought the young friend was angry, but now that he thought about it, when they met at the Horton family’s condolence visit, she didn’t seem to hold a grudge against him!

Uncle Olsen was puzzled and scratching his head, but he quickly thought of something, opened WhatsApp, found “Howard,” and sent a message. “Where are you

staying?”

Howard indeed replied immediately. “Four Seasons Hotel. Uncle Olsen, is there something you need?”

Uncle Olsen. “I’m coming to find you. I’ll take your whole family to dinner tonight.”

It was a gesture to make up for missing the appointment with the young friend last time.

After seeing Mrs. Olsen, Keira gave several orders to Samuel to find the murderer as soon as possible.

When she ultimately parted with Samuel, and he asked, “Boss, when will you be able to reclaim your

14:50

263 Meeting Again

identity?”

Keira knitted her brows and said, “We’ll talk about it

after the murderer is found.”

Only when she knew who the murderer was and why they wanted to kill them, and could ensure her own safety, could she live under her true identity again.

Keira arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel.

Just as she found the private room where Howard and his family were staying, she saw Howard and his mother excitedly preparing clothes. Howard’s mother even took out Amy’s dress to dress her up beautifully.

Glancing at Keira, Howard lifted his chin and scoffed. “You’re just in time to come bac for dinner. Hurry up and change into something more formal. Don’t embarrass me tonight!”

Keira paused slightly. “Dinner?”

Howard then excitedly opened his mouth. “Yes, today Uncle Olsen and I hit it off immediately. Do you know who Uncle Olsen is? He’s the one in charge of the Clance Olsen family, one of the five major families of Clance. He just sent me a message saying he is inviting us to dinner tonight!”

14.50

263 Meeting Again

Howard’s mother chimed in right away. “Son, you are so capable, to think that coming to Oceanion we could encounter such distinguished people, and you’ve managed to get connected! My god, that’s the Clance Olsen family! Normally, we could only see such people in financial magazines, and he has taken a fancy to

you!”

When Keira heard Uncle Olsen’s name, she was slightly

stunned.

Before, Uncle Olsen had frequently wanted to meet her, but she hadn’t gone to see him, and now that she had become Keera, she suddenly got the opportunity.

But how could someone like Howard ever get in touch with Uncle Olsen?

She glanced at Howard and saw that he was indeed handsome, with a refined and scholarly appearance-a truly good-looking fellow. It must have been this handsome face that had charmed Keera!

Little did anyone know he was just an empty suit!

The look of disdain in Keira’s eyes made Howard chuckle. “I told you, I’m really good at business. Today, I had a chat with Uncle Olsen about the future

34:50

263 Meeting Again

economic trends, and he listened patiently throughout.

Now he has invited me to dinner, which must mean he thinks highly of my insights! Alright, let’s go, we can’t keep Uncle Olsen waiting!”-

Keira didn’t bother with idle chit-chat.

Since she had decided to investigate her sister’s death under the guise of Keera, she would play along with them to avoid complications.

She bowed her head and changed into a suitable tweed

coat.

Then she went into the bathroom to carefully wash off

the iodine on her face…

Although the color wouldn’t fade immediately, at least it wasn’t as yellow as it had been during the day.

Once they were dressed, they headed downstairs.

Howard chose Fragrance Hall on the car’s navigation and started the vehicle.

Howard’s mother asked, “What place is Fragrance Hall?”

Howard immediately replied with pride, “Fragrance Hall is a famous private restaurant in Oceanion. I’ve

19:00

263 Moeting Again

just heard about it. It seems to be owned by Mrs. Horton, and it’s hard to get in without a reservation!

The elites of Oceanion love to dine here. Uncle Olsen inviting us to eat here shows he really values me!”

Howard’s mother immediately glared at Keira. “Son, I have always known you are destined for great things. You’ve always been the most impressive in our village. What a shame to marry Keera! Speaking of which, your status don’t sound good when you mention it. Keera, on, say you have married into our family, got

Keira ered inwardly but didn’t speak.

was going to assume her sister’s identity, she d reclaim everything that belonged to her sister!

263 Meeting Again

But for now, she couldn’t be bothered to argue about these things.

Seeing Keira’s lack of response, Howard’s mother became irate. “What kind of attitude is that? You are eating Howard’s food, living in Howard’s house, and even dining in a private restaurant like Fragrance Hall, all thanks to Howard’s connections! You must change your name once we return! Have you heard me?”

Keira’s expression turned cold, and Howard intervened. “Okay, Mom, that’s enough, we’re here.”

Howard’s mother gave her a fierce look, “Take care of that burdensome girl, and make sure to behave properly later. Don’t get dazzled by the wealth and humiliate my son. If you do, I’ll punish you and that burdensome girl severely afterward!”

They parked the car and had just gotten out when someone greeted them, “Is this Mr. Smith’s family? Uncle Olsen has been waiting for you in the private

room for a long time.”

Howard immediately smiled. “Yes, that’s us, please lead the way…

The assistant smiled and walked ahead.

Howard and his mother entered the grand Fragrance

Hall first.

The place was elegantly decorated with a classic feel, and there were little streams and bridges. The whole atmosphere was distinct.

Howard and his mother cautiously surveyed their surroundings, and his mother even whispered a warning. “Keera, hold that burdensome girl tight. Everything here is incredibly valuable, and if you accidentally break something, selling you wouldn’t

Keira snorted to herself.
