Keira was perplexed but quickly rushed to untie the

person.

Lewis watched her, a smile lurking in his eyes. “Keera may have kept a low profile from a young age, but indeed, she never learned martial arts. Keira, you’ve given yourself away.”

Keira untied the tie from the man’s hand, her eyes teasing as she looked at him. “Mr. Horton, I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”

“Is that so?”

Lewis moved his wrist and walked over to sit on the

sofa in the master bedroom, his gaze still fixed on her

Keira felt somewhat uncomfortable under his scrutiny

and lowered her head, continuing. “Mr. Horton, isn’t it inappropriate for you to come here so late?”

Lewis’s eyes drooped, yet a smile crept into them. “Miss South resembles my late wife, and I miss her terribly, so I came for a visit. I hope you don’t mind.”

Keira said, “Do as you please!”

11:20

She ignored Lewis and started searching the master bedroom, eager to find the diary Mary mentioned.

However, having lived in this master bedroom for a month, she had never seen it. How could she possibly

find it now?

Keira stood in front of the desk, staring pensively.”

Where would Keera hide a diary?

She had already looked through the wardrobe, and nothing was there.

The desk and various drawers were also empty.

This past month, she hadn’t only been caring for Howard’s mother and diligently cleaning the house every day, but she had also been searching for any information about Keera.

She wanted to uncover her secrets.

But she had already cleaned and cleared out everything in the house, looked through Keera’s more mundane diaries, and found nothing out of the ordinary!

If it hadn’t been for Mary mentioning today that Keera had a locked diary that she never showed to anyone.

11:21 –

2/9

she wouldn’t even know such a thing existed.

She felt around on the bed and checked under it… still

no clue.

While she was pondering, the deep voice of Lewis

suddenly filled the room. “When I was a child and wanted to hide something, I would usually bury it in the ground.”

Bury it in the ground…

Keira abruptly turned her head, her gaze landing on the small garden of the villa.

The villa had its own small yard, and Keera liked to plant flowers, so in a corner of the yard, she kept som different varieties of flowers and a tree…

Keira abruptly stood up and strode outside.

Amy and the maid had already gone to bed, as for Mary, she hadn’t come out from the guest room.

Keira took the garden shears and went to the tree, stepped around arbitrarily, and suddenly noticed that the soil in some area wasn’t as soft, feeling rather hard!

She immediately started digging with a small shovel.

11:21

3/9

After just a few digs, she saw a metal box.

The box wasn’t large, just the size of a book, and there was no lock on the box.

Keira dropped the shovel, took out the metal box,

dusted it off, and then opened the box to find a notebook with a floral cover, the kind readily available in stationery stores, lying quietly inside.

The notebook had a small lock on it, but the key wasn’t

inside the box.

Keira fell silent for a moment, reburied the box, then went back upstairs to the bedroom. She was about to close the door when she realized Lewis was right

behind her.

Keira almost forgot about that damn man.

She rolled her eyes and went inside.

Lewis then said, “The key might be quite difficult to find…”

Keira couldn’t help but glance at him. “Who said I’m looking for the key?”

11:21

Lewis was taken aback.

Then he saw Keira take scissors from the side and with a “snip, snip,” cut the notebook free from the locked

part.

Lewis was speechless.

After Keira did all of this, she opened the notebook and found everything was intact, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

But she didn’t look at the things her sister had left behind right away; instead, she turned to Lewis. “Mr. Horton, aren’t you planning to leave? Breaking and entering is a crime, you know.”

“Is that so?”

Lewis took a step forward, coming up to her.

Suddenly, he bent down, lowered his head, and

embraced her into his arms.

Keira wanted to struggle, but Lewis said, “If you push me away, that will prove you’re Keira, not Keera because Keera wouldn’t have the guts.”

Keira was perplexed.

11:21

5/9

She stopped moving.

Indeed, if Keera were in her shoes, given the mismatch in their status with Lewis, she would only try to please him, fear him…

As she was thinking, the man suddenly lowered his head and buried it in the nape of her neck, his breath spraying on her skin, making her itch. She felt as though ants were crawling all over her body, stirring her heart into chaos.

She pushed at Lewis, pretending to be like Keera. “Mr. Horton, don’t do this…”

But Lewis spoke again. “Don’t do what? Last time at the Oceanion Hotel, you didn’t reject me like this…”

Keira stiffened.

Then Lewis reached out and caressed her cheek. “Keira, last time, this is how I undid your clothes…”

With a tug at her waist, the robe instantly fell to the

floor.

Keira’s pupils contracted, and she instinctively covered her body, but Lewis grabbed her arm. “You didn’t

refuse me last time either…”

11:21 C

6/9

After saying that, he bent down, pressing Keira back, step by step, they reached the bed, and he looked down at her. “You were very cooperative…”

Keira said nothing.

The man lowered his head, coming closer, his hot breath making Keira’s heartbeat speed up.

However, he made no further move and stopped at her neck. “Keira, are you that cruel? Won’t you talk to

O

His voice was filled with grievance, bewilderment, and incomprehension.

It was heart-wrenching.

Keira knew she couldn’t hide it anymore.

She slowly lowered her gaze

After a long while, she chuckled softly, pushing Lew away, and put her robe back on. “Even if I do that, wh

then?”

When Lewis heard that, he saw her finally admitting it, and he was stunned in place.

He chuckled softly, but his eyes reddened again.

11:21

7/9

He was certain the person before him was his beloved, but as long as Keira refused to admit it, he was filled with dread, afraid that he had mistaken someone else

for her.

That was why he kept coming to look for her.

This past month, he had also watched her from afar countless times.

Watching her play Keera with flawless precision, there were moments when he wondered if he really had mistaken her identity.

Until this very moment.

The heart that had been hanging in suspense finally

settled down.

It was her…

It truly was her…

He was about to say something when he saw Keira’s back turned to him; her gaze was filled with strands of complexity and reluctance. “You couldn’t bear to watch your old flame die, and I couldn’t possibly tolerate you being with other women like some might. Since that’s the case, why are you so persistent about

Upon hearing this, Lewis took out the ring from his

pocket…

Divorce?

Lewis’s joyful expression stiffened momentarily.

Then he quickly realized what was going on and couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity of the

situation.

Keira didn’t come back to him because of that?

His eyes had tears in them, yet he started laughing

again.

Stepping forward, he took Keira’s hand with his right hand and led it to touch his left hand.

Keira frowned and thought this man was shameles

She had already said they were getting a divorce, and yet he dared to seduce her?

Just as she was about to pull her hand back, she suddenly touched something cool; she looked down and was stunned.

Wasn’t this the ring she had sent to that young man?

The ring was made of jade, its emerald color clearly

11:21

1/10

indicating it was expensive. How did it end up in Lewis’s possession?

Furrowing her brows, she heard Lewis begin to speak slowly.

“When I was a child, I was kidnapped. A four-year-old little girl helped me by feeding the traffickers sleeping pills. She saved me but had to go home to suffer. Crying, she hugged me and asked me to marry her…”

Upon hearing this, Keira was shocked and looked at

him.

Lewis gave a bitter smile. “After I returned home, I searched for her, but the little girl didn’t have a name back then. When I found Madeleine, she remem everything from our childhood clearly and claim was her. I asked her for the ring as a token. She t me she lost it. She was abused by her parents, suff from mental illness, and had been waiting for me to

save her…”

Looking earnestly at Keira, Lewis continued. “Later, when I received this ring, I realized I had been blind for years and talking to the wrong person. I never found that little girl. All these years, she’s been

suffering…”

Keira’s eyes were filled with tears, and her throat felt choked up.

Looking at Lewis, she suddenly didn’t know whether to cry or to laugh.

After a long while, she calmed herself down. “When did you receive the ring?”

Lewis looked at her, “On the day of your accident.”

Keira looked down. “And yet you still asked me to meet for a divorce! Saying ‘Don’t miss the 2 o’clock

appointment.”

Upon hearing this, Lewis quickly stepped forwar embraced her tightly. “Keira, do you know how n regret it?! I just wanted to surprise you, to tell you truth at the courthouse, to tell you I’ll marry no on

accident… Carrying the news that we were to divorce, you had an accident…”

Since Keira’s accident, he had refused to believe that the victim was her. He couldn’t accept that reality,

partly because of this.

11:21

He had wanted to give her a surprise but never thought it would leave her departing in pain and

regret.

The mere thought of that moment on the boat, when she was suffocating, and she thought he still wanted to divorce her, made his heart ache so much he couldn’t

the

He was still filled with remorse and regret, questioning why he hadn’t just explained everything over phone, why he had to come up with such a messy

surprise…

Keira felt the slight tremble of his body and sudde understood his intention.

She extended her arms and hugged him.

The response was an intense, shaking kiss…

The clothes she had just put on slid off once again…

Both were not good with words, so they could only act, expressing their joy and passion at recognizing each other…

Time and again…

11:21

47303

Lewis wished he could meld Keira into his body, wish they could become one and never be apart again…

The night grew deeper.

The white sheer curtains were blown by the wind,

swaying, and making the scene inside appear intermittently.

Even the moon in the sky seemed bashful, hiding behind the clouds, yet it couldn’t help peeking through

a slit…

A night of fiery passion…

A night of unrestrained indulgence…

Lewis released his repressed longing time and

again…

As a result, when Keira woke up the next day, it already ten in the morning.

She was startled, quickly glanced at the man lying n to her, then immediately jumped out of bed, flung open the bedroom door, and dashed out, only to see Mary playfully texting on the living room couch downstairs.

The maid was monning the floor.

11:21

Ceira exclaimed, “Where’s Amy?”

Mary grinned teasingly at her and said, “Knew you u wouldn’t be getting up today, so I sent her off to the he arly learning center!”

eira was perplexed.

s she was puzzling over this, Mary had already heekily leaned in and bluntly said, “Keera, good for ou! I was wondering why you finally agreed to divorce hat scumbag Howard, turns out you’ve got a new lame! Last night was pretty intense…”

eira’s cheeks immediately turned a burning red.

Keira hastily put a stop to the R-rated scenes in her ›rain, trying hard to forget the details of last night. She coughed and said, “Well, I…”

But Mary cut her off, speaking very seriously. “Keira,

11:21

6/10

there’s no need to say anything, I understand. It was Howard who cheated first, so you finding a gigolo is nothing to blame.”

After that, she added, “But in the future, you should still temper it down. We have a long way to go! You don’t want to exhaust him so soon, do you?”

“Pffft!”

Keira was drinking water and when she heard the last sentence, she sprayed it out.

Mary dodged away in disgust, then her phone started to vibrate intensely again.

Keira drank some water and walked to the kitchen get a sandwich the maid had prepared. As she ate heard Mary click her tongue twice. “Keera, Clance changing!”

Keira was taken aback. “What do you mean?”

“Today, news came from the Horton family in Oceanion that they were going to make their presence known in Clance! Turns out they’ve been planning this for a month in Clance. They’re the wealthiest in Oceanion, no less influential than the five major families of Clance. Their arrival might just change the

11:21

7/10

landscape in Clance!”

Lewis’s move to Clance was something he told her about last night.

He wasn’t leaving.

Keira didn’t show much reaction and just listened as Mary continued. “I heard that the family head of the Horton family, Lewis, isn’t even thirty yet, and now he’s stepping up to compete on par with the heads of the fiye families. That’s impressive… Though it probably has nothing to do with me.”

After saying that, the door to the master bedroom suddenly opened.

Lewis was particularly fastidious and a neat frea he wouldn’t wear yesterday’s clothes, so Keira co only find an unworn set of lounge wear that belon to Howard for him.

Lewis was now wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, and the cotton trousers were a bit short. The man who usually had a strong and steady presence now looked like a college student.

Upon seeing his face, Mary’s eyes lit up, and she

sneakily nudged Keira, whispering “Keera vou’ve got

8/10

good taste. Which school is he from? This gigolo is a whole lot better than that scum Howard!”

Keira was speechless.

She, too, ogled Lewis along with Mary.

The man always used to dress sharply in suits, which overshadowed his handsome face, but now, with his hair in disarray, that face was truly stunning.

Without a word from her, the playful Mary approached him and said, “Young man, you know how to take good care of my sister, right? Do it well, and you might just get to marry into wealth – you could end up on the list of rich wives.”

Lewis stiffened.

Mary then asked, “By the way, what’s your nam

Lewis instinctively looked toward Keira, asking with his eyes: can I tell her?

After a night of unreserved conversation, Keira told Lewis about Keera’s cause of death and incidentally mentioned her mother’s situation.

Lewis had said at the time, “I’ve been helping out with Mrs. Olsen’s issue, but so far, there’s no news.”

Setting aside the cordial relationship between Lewis and Uncle Olsen, the fact that Mrs. Olsen was Keira’s mother meant that Lewis had always taken the matte seriously.

However, he hadn’t understood the reasons before,

but now he did.

After sharing information, they realized that, given the backgrounds of both the Horton and the Olsen

families, the fact that they couldn’t find the “South family” indicated just how mysterious the South family actually was.

The only way to save her mother was to lure the

11:21

1/10

snakes out of their hole!

www

The South family would be in touch with Keera, so Keira couldn’t resume her identity for the moment; she had to continue posing as Keera to entice them to

make contact.

Lewis, wanting to avoid his appearance linking Keera with Keira, decided after some thought to conceal his identity and stay by Keira’s side.

He coughed and was about to conjure up a name or something when Mary laughed. “No way? Keera, have you finally turned things around? Your little boyfriend, he’s really under your thumb, isn’t he? He doesn’t dare utter his name?”

Lewis was speechless.

He said nothing.

Mary didn’t fuss over this and instead felt happy for

Keira.

At that moment, her phone buzzed again.

She glanced down at it, and her brows knitted together, “Damn it!”

Keira asked casually, “What’s wrong?”

11:21

Mary sighed. “My uncle is really something… Hearing that Lewis came to Clance, he told me to find an opportunity to ‘bump into’ him, to try…”

“Ahem!”

Keira instinctively glanced at Lewis.
