Seeing this person, Ellis was stunned, “Director Porter? What brings you here?”

He was none other than the head of the New Energy Development Department at Olsen Group!

Director Porter seemed to have just noticed him, stared in surprise for a moment, and then exclaimed, “Mr. Ellis, are you here also to compete for this project? That’s fantastic!”

Ellis was dumbfounded.

Brian scoffed. “Mr. Ellis looks down on our project, saying we’re deceiving people.”

Director Porter immediately became anxious. “Brian, is the project research outcome you just told me about on the phone fake?”

Brian said, “How could that be possible!”

“Then how could it be a deception?”

Director Porter was puzzled.

Brian handed over the project proposal to him.

“Because Mr. Ellis said, there’s no project worth several hundred million!”

Director Porter was shocked.

He instantly opened the project proposal and after a few glances, he immediately looked toward Ellis. “Quick, Mr. Ellis, sign the contract!”

This was Davis Corporation’s territory – what if they didn’t secure the contract, and it got snatched away?!

Ellis was utterly confused.

Staring at the contract, he was flabbergasted!

Even Ken’s expression changed as he looked towards Brian.

Brian immediately explained, “Director Davis, do you think I would deceive you? Porter and I have always been in competition; surely Porter wouldn’t be deceiving you either, right? But Mr. Wayne just said that they would no longer cooperate with Keera Technology in the future, so for this project, we can only collaborate with Olsen Group now!”

After saying this, he felt incredibly satisfied, releasing a long-held resentment with relief.

To be honest, working in such a large corporation,

with so many relatives in the company weighing down on him, he had long felt frustrated.

Now, seeing the expressions on Wayne and Ken’s faces, he felt indescribably thrilled!

Ken furrowed his brows.

Ellis then voiced what he was feeling inside. “Is this project really that important?”

Director Porter immediately said, “Mr. Ellis, let me put it this way. Everyone is working on new energy. In the future, who makes money will depend on whose technology is in the leading position. I can say that, among the things currently circulating in the market, this project is definitely the most advanced in technology. At present, apart from Dr. South’s company, there’s no other company in the country that can develop it!”

He leaned in close to Ellis and spoke in a lowered voice. “Mr. Ellis, I see Keera Technology is just a small company, why not spend a few billion to acquire them? This way, the technology will be ours!”

Ellis was shocked.

He coughed slightly and exchanged glances with Ken.

The next moment…

Ellis and Ken simultaneously said to Keira,

“I offer three billion to acquire your company!”

“I offer two billion to acquire your company!”

Ken, offering one billion less, quickly added, “I can also offer three billion!”

There were rules in the industry.

That was, malicious bidding wasn’t possible, so Ken and Ellis wouldn’t engage in malicious competition here. The price offered was the same, so what came next was to see each one’s sincerity.

Brian watched the two of them, his eyes smiling as h looked at Keira, “Miss South, who do you want to sell

to?”

Ken smiled. “Keera Technology, right? I know you’re Mary’s good friend. Although we had some unpleasantness in our cooperation, just now, I’ve withdrawn your family’s lawsuit, hasn’t he?”

The implication was, Ken had given her a break!

11:33

Ellis became anxious, saying, “That was only because of what I said, otherwise, how would you know about this today? Uncle Davis, please don’t compete with me on this project!”

Ken still smiled warmly. “My dear Ellis, it’s not that I want to compete with you, but from their recent conversation, it seems that Miss South was originally planning to work with us on this project, right?”

Keira heard this and glanced at Wayne, whose face had already turned dark, with a smile. “That’s right, but Mr. Wayne rejected it! He even said that he would never work with our company again in the future.”

Upon hearing this, Ken glared at Wayne. “His words don’t count; I have the final say, and besides, it’s all a misunderstanding.”

After finishing his statement, he turned to Brian.

“Brian, you’ve been with the company for over twenty years, and the company has treated you well, right? Now that you’ve found a new job, you can’t forget your old employer, can you? You’re familiar with Davis Corporation, and now that we’ve acquired it, won’t it be even more convenient to work together in the

future?”

Brian just smiled. “Director Davis, this matter still depends on Miss South. Actually, I don’t mind

cooperating with anyone; I’m quite familiar with Porter

too…”

“Right, right, right…

Director Porter nodded repeatedly while nudging Ellis.

He didn’t have the guts to argue with Ken over the project.

Ellis then twitched the corner of his mouth.

He came today originally to laugh at Keera and Mary, so how did it suddenly turn into him having to coax Keera to snatch the project?

How quickly his status had changed!

He coughed, and considering how he had always himself above Mary and Keera, he found it quite h to admit his new position.

He could only cough again and say, “Well, Keera, you have some connections with my uncle… Let’s be partners, and the price is negotiable!”

“The price on my side is also negotiable!” Both Ken and Ellis knew they couldn’t compete in price but needed

to make a statement.

If three billion wasn’t enough, they could add more

money!

Ellis coughed again, ready to speak, when Ken looked towards Mary,” Mary, Miss South is your best friend; you should come and help persuade her!”

Mary was perplexed.

Who was going to tell her what had happened?

Just a moment ago, she was still immersed in the joy that Keera finally didn’t have to repay the massive debt and worried about being pressured and lured by Wayne’s threats when returning to the company. How suddenly, the eldest uncle from the first branch of the family had become so pleasant toward her?

She felt a bit overwhelmed by the sudden favor, “U

Ken, I…”

Keira slowly began. “Actually, if Mary were to be in charge of this project, it wouldn’t be impossible…”

Understanding dawned on Ken, and he immediately said, “Of course, Mary will take charge. You two are good friends; it’ll be easier that way…”

11.23

His tone was quite affectionate now…

Keira then looked at Director Brian. “But Director Brian, you’ve resigned. The person coming to coordinate this project should at least be a director, right?”

Ken instantly burst out laughing. “Well, Mary, Director Brian has resigned, and since you’ve also been with the company for two years now, you should be promoted to that position!”

Wayne’s expression changed.

Mary was so young, but she had become a director, and from now on, he could never press down on Mary’s family again!

Keira was pleased with this. Then Director Da shall we begin…”

Just as the negotiation was about to succeed, D Porter from Olsen Group was becoming frantic, nudging Ellis urgently.

Ellis came to his senses and immediately shouted,

The others all turned to look at him.

Ken said with a smile, “Dear Ellis, why not? We already have a partnership with Keera Technology, and Mary and Keera have this relationship between them; we’re closely related!”

Ellis immediately retorted. “Keera, my uncle and you also have a close friendship as well…”

“What friendship can compare with a bestie from childhood?”

Ken laughed triumphantly. “Right, Keera?”

Keira didn’t know what to say.

She pulled a face, exchanging glances with Mary, and could see the joy in Mary’s eyes.

Seeing this, Ellis became anxious, and for the sake of the project, he blurted out, “Keera and our family ha an even closer relationship! She’s my cousin!”

As soon as Ellis spoke, Keira immediately narrowed her

eyes.

Was Uncle Olsen truly her father?

She had suspected as much early on, but it wasn’t until Jodie South said she never wanted to see Uncle Olsen again that Keira had confirmed it.

After Ellis finished speaking, he slightly tilted his chin up, feeling certain he would have shocked everyone.

He looked at Keera, expecting to see her overwhelmed with joy – after all, a powerful father had appeared out of the blue! But what he saw was the woman standi

there indifferently, looking at him without any expression.

Ellis was perplexed.

He turned his gaze to Ken, wanting to say something, but Ken laughed and patted him on the shoulder. “How clever, you’re really going all out for this project! Isn’t it common knowledge that in the pursuit of a

from?”

Ellis wanted to say more, but Ken cut him off. “Alright, I know you want this project too. Since it’s such a good project, why don’t our two families work together? Miss South, do you have any objections?”

It wasn’t necessary for the Olsen family and the Davis family to fall out over a project worth several hundred million; a partnership was the best model.

When Keira heard this, her gaze swept over Mary and Ellis, and she raised an eyebrow. “Then let Mary handle the business between the two companies.”

“Deal! That settles it!”

Ken smiled and turned again to Ellis. “Since you brought the contract, shall we discuss the details

“Sure, then Miss South…”

Keira looked down to check the time, “I’ve got some

“Got it!”

The newly appointed Director Brian suddenly tilted his chin up, feeling a surge of pride.

Since Mary had to stay to discuss the partnership, Keira nodded at her and prepared to leave for a taxi.

She had an appointment with Howard to get a divorce.

Best get the certificate quickly and avoid further complications.

She had barely taken a few steps when she heard footsteps from behind. Turning around, she saw Ellis following her; he was sizing her up. “Keera, you really are my cousin.”

Keira said, “You must be mistaken, right?”

Ellis thought she didn’t believe him. After all, wh could reject such a family background? He then “Forget it. Next time I’ll bring you the DNA test re

Keira immediately displayed Keera’s characteristic gentleness and timidity.

302 Keera and Keira

Looking at those familiar features but unfamiliar expressions, Ellis thought of the valiant woman he had met in Oceanion and momentarily lost focus.

He suddenly asked, “Did you ever attend Mrs. Horton’s funeral service?”

Keira looked down. “Yes, Howard wanted to build connections, so he took me there and even claimed to others that I was Mrs. Horton’s high school classmate.”

This statement silenced Ellis!

After a while, he suddenly sighed. “Then have you ever

met Lewis?”

Upon hearing this name, Keira felt a tightness in her chest as if an invisible hand had gripped her heart tightly.

For the past month, she had been forcing herself mimic Keera’s demeanor, looking after Amy diligen and reading Keera’s diary at night in hopes of findin traces of the “South family” to save her mother…

She had tried to make herself forget that name.

But now, as Ellis brought it up, she realized that the name “Lewis” were like a thorn embedded deep in her

11:34

marrow.

A pang of pain would ensue whenever it was prodded.

She lowered her gaze. “Yes, I’ve seen him.”

“Has Lewis seen you?” Ellis asked curiously.

He had had people dig into Keera’s background

thoroughly, so he was sure that the person before him

was Keera and not Keira.

Keira, however, asked back, “Mr. Ellis, what do you mean by that?”

Ellis noticed her displeasure and explained, “I don’t

know how to say this, but ever since Mrs. Horton

passed away, Lewis has been immersed in pain and

hasn’t come out of it.”

Keira was slightly stunned.

She tensed her jaw.

He hasn’t come out of it, probably because it hasn’t been long enough!

There was no wound that time couldn’t heal.

Moreover, he still had to be with his old flame and his

savior…

Ellis sighed. “Forget it, it’s no use telling you. You don’t know them. By the way, where are you going now?”

Keira looked down and said nothing.

But Ellis realized something. “Are you getting a divorce

from Howard?”

Keira paused and nodded.

Ellis misunderstood her expression. “You can’t still be hung up on that scumbag, can you? Keera, I’m really speechless, can’t you be a bit stronger?”

Keira remained silent.

Ellis said disdainfully, “Can’t you hold your head up high? What do you have to be ashamed of? You look like a victim every day… Seeing you with Keira’s face and putting on this act, I’m really not used to it!”

Keira was perplexed.

Ellis continued. “Can’t you be a bit more assertive? After all, your surname is also Olsen. You should be Keera Olsen…”

His words were cut off as he suddenly froze.

Keera Olsen… Keira Olsen?

Keira held back and finally couldn’t help saying, “Mr. Ellis, are you bored?”

Ellis said, “No, I’m not… Are you calling me nosy?”

Mid-sentence, Keira already hailed a taxi, entered it, and drove off, leaving Ellis shouting angrily on the

spot.

“Am I not doing this for her own good? And she talks to me like that!”

He assistant said, “Mr. Ellis, the car is here.”

Ellis got into his own car, huffing. “Follow that car.”

The assistant was dumbfounded.

Ellis couldn’t help saying, “She’s my only cousin, and I can’t just watch her go get bullied by others!!”

The taxi soon arrived at the courthouse.

After getting out of the taxi, Keira walked in and

immediately saw Howard and Cindy waiting for her impatiently.

Howard stepped forward, “Keera, what’s the matter with you? Why are you so late? You don’t want a divorce, do you?”

Cindy quickly said, “Can you be quick about it? Howard doesn’t love you anymore. Why are you still clinging on? You really have no shame!”

Keira took a deep breath.

Be patient.

She must bear with them.

Once she got the divorce certificate, everything would be perfectly resolved!

She didn’t speak and went with Howard to the serv

window.

The divorce certificate was processed quickly.

When the official stamped the certificate, Keira even felt her hand itching…

She finally fulfilled her sister’s first wish. She got

03 Keira, I Know It’s You

Keira looked at the freshly issued divorce certificate in

her hands, feeling that her patience over the past month had not been in vain!

The house remained hers, and Amy was hers too…

If her sister were still alive, she would have surely been overjoyed at this moment.

Thinking of this, Keira’s eyes began to tear up…

Howard saw her like this and suddenly felt a bit reluctant to let go.

After all, with their college romance and her face that evoked such sympathy, it was really hard to let her g now that she was no longer his wife.

He looked at her and couldn’t help but say, “Don’t cr I’ll visit you and the child…”

However, his words displeased Cindy, who immediately tugged at his arm and scolded Keira. “Keera, who are you trying to seduce with that act? Stay away from Howard after the divorce! Do you hear me?!”

303 Keira, I Know It’s You

Howard frowned, wanting to say something, but Cindy glared at him. “What? Can’t bear to leave her? Want to go pay off debts with her?”

Howard immediately shut his mouth.

Cindy then pointed at Keira and said, “Scram, don’t be an eyesore here. It’s all because of you that you’ve spoiled the perfect time for me and Howard to get our marriage certificate!”

Keira knew she couldn’t get physical, as it would not fit

Keera’s character.

But that didn’t mean she couldn’t take revenge.

She immediately stepped back and abruptly raised her voice. “Howard, are you planning to do divorced marriage all in one go today?!”

Sure enough, her words drew the attention of around them, and everyone started to look over

They saw Keira and Howard each holding a divor certificate, and then noticed Cindy standing beside Howard. With a bit of deduction, they understood

“How can someone who’s clearly the mistress still act so arrogant? What are you showing off for?”

Everyone here had come to get divorced.

There were all kinds of reasons for divorce, including infidelity, so there were always people who loathed mistresses. One auntie even rushed up and spat viciously at Cindy. “I despise mistresses like you the most. Proud of stealing someone’s husband, are you How can you have the face to scold the rightful wife
