She immediately tried to push open the door but found

it was deadbolted from the inside.

“Step aside.”

Following that command, Uncle Olsen kicked out fiercely!

“Bang!”

The door was kicked open, sending wood splinters flying, but the two of them didn’t care and rushed straight into the room!

They saw the master bedroom’s floor was wet, and Mrs. Olsen’s hands were tied to the bathroom handrail with a belt; the floor was strewn with a bath towel and

torn clothes…

Mrs. Olsen’s face was filled with anger and despair, her body trembling slightly.

Taylor was shirtless at the time, wearing only pants that were soaked through. Hearing the door open, he turned sharply, and upon seeing Uncle Olsen and

Keira, he was taken aback.

He had loved Mrs. Olsen for over twenty years and still loved her deeply, but that love had twisted into something else. Nevertheless, his first instinct was

concern for Mrs. Olsen’s embarrassment!

Especially in front of Uncle Olsen, he knew she would feel even more distressed, so Taylor’s first instinct was to grab a bath towel and cover Mrs. Olsen’s body!

And so, he managed to maintain Mrs. Olsen’s dignity in front of others…

Uncle Olsen only glanced once before he quickly averted his eyes, but his face suddenly turned ashen.

Mrs. Olsen’s hands were tied, her expression pained and hopeless, clearly not there by her own volition and although she was wearing a bath towel, one co see the scars on her exposed shoulders and legs…

Had she been a victim of domestic abuse?!

This revelation struck Uncle Olsen, making his eyes instantly blaze with rage!

She was the woman he had adored for over twenty years, whom he held dear in his heart and he had

longed for so ardently. She was someone he could have taken by force given his status, yet he had never dared to do such a thing, deeming it would defile his goddess. And now, had she been mistreated by that bastard Taylor?!

Fury taking over, he seized Taylor by the shoulder, dragged him forcefully out the door, and as soon as they were outside, his fist came crashing down!

He didn’t sneak a peek at Mrs. Olsen, maintaining his gentlemanly composure throughout.

Inside the bedroom.

Keira was also furious.

pect

The mother she had always wanted to have, the one who was gentle and strong, who taught her t herself and not to despair over her origins, ha abused by Taylor?!

Like Uncle Olsen and Taylor, she knew Mrs. Olse pride, so her first reaction was to close the door.

Then, she rushed to Mrs. Olsen’s side, just about to speak when Aunt South, who had followed in, exclaimed in shock, “Madam, how could, how could this hannen?!”

Mrs. Olsen closed her eyes in humiliation, tears rolling down from her eyes.

Aunt South immediately cried. “Madam, I thought the master just wanted to become true husband and wife with you. I’ve seen his kindness toward you over the years. How could he bear to treat you like this? Your injuries, these injuries…”

Mrs. Olsen clenched her fists, her body trembling slightly.

Keira immediately said, “Mom, don’t worry about that bastard. I’ll help you get dressed…”

She stepped forward, undid the belt around Mrs. Olsen’s wrists, then turned to look for clothes, but since she hadn’t spent much time with Mrs. Olse he could only look toward Aunt South, asking, “Wh

Mom’s undergarments kept?”

Aunt South, upon hearing this, became dazed, star blankly at Keira.

Keira decisively pulled down her mask, revealing her face.

Aunt South’s pupils contracted. “Miss Keira?”

Keira frowned. “The clothes!”

Then Aunt South snapped back to reality and quickly turned around. “Right, the clothes…”

She opened the wardrobe and took out some new clothes for Mrs. Olsen. Keira took them, eager to help the powerless Mrs. Olsen get dressed.

But just as she approached Mrs. Olsen, Mrs. Olsen clutched the bath towel fiercely. “Aunt South, please…”

Keira paused slightly.

She then realized that Mrs. Olsen had long been accustomed to Aunt South’s care, and moreover, in front of her own daughter, her current state was too disheveled and wretched for her to bear being seen…

Keira immediately stood up and stepped asid

Aunt South walked over, trying to pull off the towel from Mrs. Olsen.

A horrific scream from Taylor came from outside door!

Mrs. Olsen immediately frowned, then said, “Keira, go out and take a look. Don’t let Uncle Olsen commit murder..”

Worry showed on her face.

It wasn’t that she feared Taylor would be beaten to death, but rather that if Taylor were beaten to death, it would bring trouble to Uncle Olsen.

Given Uncle Olsen’s volatile temper, he would surely strike ruthlessly.

Keira looked at Mrs. Olsen with concern, “What about you…”

Mrs. Olsen lowered her gaze. “I’ll put on my clothes and go out.”

Keira clenched her fists, her gaze sweeping over the interior of the bathroom. Even though it was a mess, what had just happened could still be deduced from the clues left behind.

Thinking of what Taylor had done to Mrs. Olsen was so angry she wanted to kill him!

Yes, she would go out…

To help her mother get this revenge!!

Keira left with a dark expression and thoughtfully

closed the door for Mrs. Olsen, only to see that Taylor was already gasning for breath!

Uncle Olsen indeed had a heavy hand.

He didn’t let others help him but was beating Taylor with his own fists, punch after punch. Taylor’s face was swollen and bruised, as Uncle Olsen grabbed him by the collar again.

He raised his fist, ready to bring it down on Taylor.

Keira stepped forward. “Stop!”

Uncle Olsen’s brows furrowed, looking at her.

Keira’s eyes were cold. “Don’t kill him carelessly! I’ll return the injury he inflicted on the lady tenfold, a hundredfold!”

After that, she pulled out several pieces of paper, went to the side of the basin to wet them, and then d

Taylor immediately found it hard to breathe!

A minute later, Keira lifted the paper towels to se Taylor collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath he were a lump of rotten meat.

Keira crouched down beside him.

Having nearly suffocated just before, Taylor saw Keira’s face and finally realized something, his pupils

shrinking, “You… are Keera?”

Keira didn’t deny nor confirm, only staring at him. “Are you surprised?”

“Of course, I’m surprised!” Taylor forced a smile. “I’m surprised. How did you manage to escape? You were in the vast sea, and yet you’re still alive!”

His words made Keira clench her fists tighter, “So it

was indeed you. You actually wanted to kill the two of

us?”

“Of course…”

Taylor, battered and trembling, glanced at Uncle Olsen. He slowly straightened up his body a

close to Keira’s ear.

In a voice only the two of them could hear, he “Uncle Olsen is here, and I’m finished today, so

you a secret…”

ned

272 “Their” Secret

Secrets…

Keira knew that Keera carried a secret and so did Jodie

South.

She furrowed her brows.

Then she heard Taylor say softly and slowly, “Keera, the reason I wanted to kill you both was simple. I couldn’t let your mother find out that she gave birth to twins that year!”

Keira was puzzled. “Why? Wasn’t I… wasn’t I supposed to have died and been abandoned at birth? Even if she

found out, so what?”

Taylor was stunned by her words, and he burst into laughter. “Is that what they told you? Ha…”

“They”? Was he referring to Keera’s adoptive parents or someone else?

Taylor continued. “You weren’t abandoned. You were taken away as soon as you were born. I didn’t have the ability to protect you then, but if I had revealed that you were taken, your mom would have gone back and

272 “Their” Secret

searched for you desperately, so I’ve always hidden

your existence from her! How could I possibly let her risk her life for… someone else’s child?”

At this point, Taylor glanced at Uncle Olsen.

Upon hearing this explanation, Keira felt like her head was going to explode.

Although she had found the murderer, the situation seemed to have gotten even more complicated…

Taylor continued to speak softly. “Keera, why did you come back? Without you, my life with her would have continued to be peaceful, but you found Keira, and if the truth was revealed, Shirley would surely blame me and leave me! So, the moment you found Keira, I made up my mind to let you both die!”

A hint of madness flickered in his eyes. “Anyone who dares to disturb me and Shirley must die!”

Keira, furious, slapped him!

To conceal the past, had Taylor kidnapped her and Keera? He then threw them into a sunken ship at sea…

If she hadn’t acted decisively, waking Keera and breaking the window, if Keera hadn’t desperately

272 “Their” Secret

dragged her from under the water to the surface, perhaps what the Horton family would be burying today would be two corpses!!

Although Keera’s appearance was unexpected, she felt very gentle to Keira.

Even though they had only spent a little time together, Keira had already acknowledged this sister…

While she was thinking about this, Taylor laughed again. He leaned close to Keira’s ear and whispered, “Also, do you know? The fact that Poppy had switched the two children, I implicitly consented to it because I didn’t want Shirley to raise that man’s child! One of her daughters was taken, the other was switched… and this way, Shirley would have no more affection left for the children, and she would only have eyes for me…

Keira clenched her fists tightly and stared hard at him upon hearing his words.

She suddenly picked up the tissues from before and pressed them against Taylor’s face again, enraged, and with tears welling up in her eyes, she smothered him…

Taylor struggled for air, fighting hard.

11:45

3/11

272 “Their” Secret

But Keira only wanted him to pay with his life! He would pay for her sister’s death and the abuse inflicted on their mother, as well as her own miserable life of the past 22 years!!

Her eyes were red with rage as she stared at Taylor.

Her hands were forceful as if to vent all her years of

grievances.

She remembered as a child, every time she enviously watched their family of three…

She not only longed for a normal mother, she had also hoped countless times in her heart that her mother wasn’t Poppy but Mrs. Olsen…

She had even wished that her father, Taylor, would

notice her.

She had dreamed that he would descend like a god when she was wronged, taking her away from Poppy’s

torture…

She remembered before she was sold to human traffickers at the age of four, after being beaten severely by Poppy, she once hid at the door. When she saw Taylor coming home from work, she deliberately

neared in front of him

She gently called him “Daddy”…

But Taylor simply glanced at her indifferently, then told Poppy to keep her from running around.

Poppy took her back to the basement, where she faced more brutal beatings! It was then that Poppy sold her

to the traffickers…

All these years, Poppy was just the wicked executor.

Taylor was the mastermind!

Memories of her miserable childhood…

The body of her sister Keera…

And the traces of abuse on her mother’s body…

All of it drove Keira to a blind rage as she pressed down on Taylor, just wanting him to die!

Taylor, whose mouth and nose were covered, slowly stopped struggling…

But Keira kept applying pressure.

Tears slowly filled her eyes…

The next moment, her wrist was grabbed, and she was pushed aside by Uncle Olsen. He quickly removed the

Uncle Olsen glanced toward the person beside him,

who immediately squatted down to start emergency aid on Taylor.

Keira, however, stared fiercely at Uncle Olsen.

It seemed that if anyone dared to stop her from taking her revenge, she would kill them too!

But how could a person like Uncle Olsen be intimidated by her?

Uncle Olsen only knitted his brow and spoke in a deep voice. “Why are you so agitated? Why are you more fierce than me? Why do you hate him so much?”

Uncle Olsen was also angry, so his punches landed on flesh with no mercy.

However, seeing Keira even more crazed, he calmed down instead.

Keira didn’t answer his question but said hoarsely, “He killed people, so he deserves to die!”

Uncle Olsen thought Keera and Keira were very good classmates and didn’t think much of it. He only

frowned and said. “I have a thousand ways to kill him.

11:46 (

6/11

272 “Their” Secret

There’s no need for you to do it.”

After saying this, Uncle Olsen suddenly looked toward the bedroom door. “Moreover, Miss South is the one who’s most entitled to deal with him.”

Taylor began to breathe.

He coughed and looked toward Keira. “Why didn’t you

kill me? Kill me!”

Keira finally regained her sanity.

She realized that Taylor had deliberately said those things to her because he didn’t want to live anymore.

Uncle Olsen had many ways to make life worse than death for him, so he wanted to die by her hand.

Keira took a deep breath and said nothing.

Taylor lay sprawled on the ground, his arms and legs outstretched. His whole body seemed to relax as he

suddenly sneered. “I wanted to teach you one last lesson before I die, but it turns out you don’t even have the courage to kill someone. Keera, you are truly

weak!”

After finishing this sentence, he abruptly closed his

mouth and bit down hard.

11:46

7/11

“He’s attempting suicide!”

The moment Uncle Olsen said this, people around him immediately rushed over, only to find that Taylor had already swallowed the poison hidden between his

teeth!

The poison acted quickly; almost immediately upon ingestion, he vomited a mouthful of black blood.

Taylor turned his head toward the bedroom, extending his hand with a flicker of struggle in his eyes as if trying to grasp at something. “Shirley…”

The person beside him checked and sighed. “It’s a poison that kills instantly. There’s no saving him.”

Uncle Olsen then turned toward the bedroom and

to Keira, “Please ask Miss South if she wants to see

for the last time…”

After all, he was a man who had accompanied her for more than twenty years and protected her.

Jodie might want to send him off.

Though Keira felt it was unnecessary, it was her

mother’s choice, so she walked to the door and

knocked.

11:46

8/11/

But there was no response from inside the room!!

Keira was slightly stunned, knocked again, but still no one answered from inside.

She suddenly realized something!

That’s right…

When Taylor kidnapped her and Keera and attempted to murder the two of them, he had accomplices, but their entry into the Olsen home had been too easy,

faced with no resistance.

So… where were his accomplices?!

Uncle Olsen also realized this, and the two of them violently pushed open the bedroom door, rushing in only to find the bedroom empty. Jodie South and Aunt South were gone.

“Search, the surroundings immediately. Lock down the entire complex!”

Uncle Olsen ran out and shouted at the people around

him.

The dying Taylor on the ground suddenly shouted, “It’s them. They’ve taken Shirley! Hurry, save her, save her!!”

11:46)

9/11

His expression was anxious, clearly not expecting this

outcome!

The dying man seemed to regain vigor, sitting up from the ground and pointing next door. “The master bedroom has a secret passage that leads to the house next door. They must’ve taken Shirley there!”

No sooner had these words fallen than Uncle Olsen was already charging out the door with his men.

As Keira was about to follow, Taylor suddenly grabbed her pants, “Keera, save Shirley! Please save her!”

Keira immediately looked at him, grabbing his collar. “Who are they…exactly?!”

Taylor’s eyes widened, “They are…

The words weren’t finished when suddenly, from the rooftop of the next villa, the sound of a helicopter starting up was heard.

Through the window, Keira watched helplessly as a helicopter suddenly took off

Her vision was very good, so she saw Jodie and Aunt South bound hand and foot by two men, lying inside the helicopter.

Jodie seemed to notice Keira. Her face was pressed against the glass, and her mouth opened and closed, seemingly trying to say something…

Uncle Olsen had already rushed over, but he could only stand there, watching as the helicopter quickly flew away, with everyone watching it helplessly.

But Uncle Olsen didn’t give up. He immediately got into his car and chased after the helicopter.

Keira was weak now and not as robust as before, so

she didn’t chase after them. She turned to look at

Taylor.

In his face, she saw deep concern.

Keira asked him once more. “Taylor, who are they

exactly? How am I to save my mom?”

Taylor was already extremely weak.

If it weren’t for the last gasp of breath, he should have

been dead.

His mouth opened and closed as he tightly grasped Keira’s hand, bitterly spitting out, “It was you, Keera, it was you who recognized Keira that brought them to me. They sought my partnership and killed Keira! A it was you, you had to see your mom, which led thei to abduct Shirley!”

He coughed up blood in great gushes, his emotions running high, his gaze at Keira now filled with hatred.

“Having been taken by them, why did you have to come back? Why did you bring them back…”
