Mrs. Jones looked at Lewis in confusion, then glanced at Keira. feeling like she must have misheard. “What?” a Lewis didn’t want to say anything more.

Keira just smiled and said, “Just listen to him, and have your husband take the contract to Horton Group first thing in the morning.”

Mrs. Jones was perplexed.

She couldn’t help but size up Lewis again, noticing the noble aura of a privileged young man. Despite his sports shirt, he didn’t seem like an ordinary person.

Could he be a member of the Horton family?

As Mrs. Jones thought about this, she saw Keira pick up Amy and sit in the back seat of the car, with Lewis behind the wheel.

Mrs. Jones was speechless.

This person seemed to be Keera’s driver, right?

Or possibly Keera’s husband?

She was really overthinking it.

11:24

321 Chapter 320

Mrs. Jones shook her head, bent down to pick up her son, and got into the car to return home.

On the way home, Amy wrapped her arms tightly around Keira; the little girl felt no sense of security at that moment.

In a weak voice, she asked, “Mom, did I cause trouble for our family?”

Hearing this, Keira’s heart melted, and hugged the girl. “No, Amy is the best-behaved.”

The little girl didn’t understand deceit and didn’t know her mother had changed, but she instinctively felt uneasy and clung onto Keira as she said, “Mom, will you abandon Amy?”

“Of course not.”

Keira gently patted her back, and Amy didn’t let go until they got home.

So, that evening, Keira had an extra attachment to her body.

During dinner, Amy insisted on sitting on her lap.

11:24

321 Chapter 320

When Keira was dealing with company matters that night, Amy also needed to be there…

When she had finished her work, it was already dark. Keira had just stood up when Lewis came over and stretched out his hand. “I’ll take Amy back to her

room.”

Keira didn’t think much of it and handed Amy over to him.

But perhaps sensing her mother’s scent, Amy immediately started squirming restlessly in Lewis’s arms as soon as she was in them, calling out with her eyes closed, “Mommy, mommy…”

Keira, feeling helpless, had to reach out again and t the child back into her arms.

She carried Amy to her bedroom and after placing he on the bed, the little girl still clung tightly to her sleeve, unwilling to let her leave.

Keira lay down beside her.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a noise at the door, and as Keira turned her head, she glimpsed

Lewis standing there.

11:24

321 Chapter 320

The bedroom lights were off, and the dim light from the hallway spilled over him.

The man had just taken a shower, his hair still dripping with water. He wore a robe that was slightly open at the neckline, his dark eyes fixated on her.

Though not a word was spoken, the invitation was clear.

Keira blinked, pointed at the sleeve Amy was pulling on, and didn’t move.

Lewis seemed to understand and walked away.

Keira thought he had got her message and found a comfortable position to lie down, ready to spend the night with Amy.

But just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard a faint noise again.

Slowly turning her head, Keira saw Lewis standing by the bed, bending over, doing something.

Then, she heard a click, and the arm that Amy was

pulling on suddenly felt lighter.

Keira was perplexed.

11:24

321 Chapter 320

Looking down, she suddenly realized that Lewis had taken a pair of scissors and cut open her pajamas and the place Amy was clutching!

Keira was shocked.

Just as she was about to say something, the man made a “shush” sound at her, and then a large hand enveloped her shoulders and legs. Before she knew it, she was being carried away.

Lewis moved quietly, not disturbing Amy, and swiftly carried her out of the nursery and back to the master

bedroom.

Keira asked, “What are you doing?”

“I’m letting you try out the new bed.”

Keira looked at him with a smile, “Really? Just trying out the new bed?”

Both being adults, Keira understood all too well how starving for affection a man like Lewis, after 28 years of singleness, would be once he started indulging.

Lewis’s face remained tense, yet his ears slowly turned

a shade of red.

He really couldn’t take a tease…

11:24

519

321 Chapter 320

While Keira was thinking about this, she saw Lewis suddenly shed his night-robe. “And try out the person again.”

Suddenly, the lights in the master bedroom were turned off, and rustling sounds filled the room.

Keira thought she was quite fit, but she simply couldn’t keep up with the man…

She didn’t remember when she fell asleep, only recalling the last moments of exhaustion, drifting off as Lewis asked in her ear, “Is the bed comfortable?”

She said, “It’s comfortable.”

She was so close to passing out!

Then she heard Lewis ask, “And what about me?

Comfortable?”

Keira didn’t know what to say.

While she had a good night’s sleep, Mrs. Jones was filled with concern the whole evening.

Her husband, hoping to be seen favorably by the Horton Group, worked late into the night before he

11:24

Upon arriving home, he saw Mrs. Jones’s worried face and immediately asked what had happened. Mrs. Jones recounted the day’s events at the kindergarten and began apologetically. “I’m sorry. I might have hindered something important for you.”

life.

Mr. Jones was quite reasonable. “She saved your We can’t just watch her predicament without helping. What you did was right.”

Mrs. Jones felt a warmth in her chest and became even more apologetic.

She nestled in her husband’s embrace. “What happens if we can’t secure the project?”

Mr. Jones comforted her. “If we can’t get it, we’ll continue to be a second-rate wealthy family. What’s wrong? Isn’t the company earning enough for us?”

Mrs. Jones chuckled. “But Keera and that man with her said you should take the contract and sign with the Horton Group tomorrow…”

Mr. Jones couldn’t help but laugh. “How is that possible? I haven’t received any news from my side… Besides honestly, we might not have been chosen

11:24 –

321 Chapter 320

anyway, there’s another company with stronger capabilities that might be a better fit for the Horton Group.”

Mr. Jones sighed, which was why he had to work urgently late into the night.

Mrs. Jones simply nodded in response.

After the two lay down, having only rested for three hours, Mrs. Jones sat up. “Why don’t you try going to the Horton Group? Miss Keera seemed quite certain, not like someone who would speak flippantly…”

Mr. Jones responded with a wry smile to her words. “Without a call from the Horton Group, what’s there to

try?”

Mrs. Jones pushed him. “Just take the contract and give it a try. What harm could it do? Just go and see!”

Half an hour later.

Mr. Jones stood at the Horton Group’s temporary office in Clance, chuckling at himself.

He really was bewitched, why had he listened to his wife and come all the way here?

Mr. Jones looked down at the contract and was about

and for this chapters

322 Chapter 321

Mr. Jones was slightly startled and turned around abruptly.

There before him was Tom who, just yesterday, had been giving them the cold shoulder but now

approached him with a full-faced smile, extending his hand. “Nice to meet you!”

Mr. Jones looked at him in a daze, “Mr. Davis?”

Tom said, “Did you bring the contract?”

Mr. Jones said, “…Yes, I did.”

“Good, let me take a look at the contract. If there’s nothing wrong, let’s sign the agreement today!”

Mr. Jones followed Tom into the office in a daze and still felt like he was dreaming when he walked out with the signed contract.

He returned home in a daze.

Mrs. Jones saw his expression and thought the deal hadn’t gone through, so she immediately asked, “What happened? You weren’t chased out by the receptionist,

were you?”

11:24

11

322 Chapter 321

Mr. Jones handed over the contract to her.

Mrs. Jones glanced at it and she, too, was stunned.

Mr. Jones looked at her. “Tell me, what kind of person is your lifesaver from yesterday, exactly?”

Mrs. Jones touched her chin, pondered for a moment, and couldn’t help looking at him. “Is it because I did a good deed, and this is my reward for being a good person?”

Mr. Jones nearly rolled his eyes. “Do you believe that?”

“No.”

Mr. Jones then said, “Forget it. Whatever their background is, our dealings with them aren’t for personal gain anyway!”

Mrs. Jones was also open-minded. “That’s right!”

The next day, Keira didn’t take Amy to the early

education class.

Before, Keera had sent her there to avoid Howard’s mother, who was always scolding her at home, and later she also sent the child there as a trap for

11:24 –

279

322 Chapter 321

Howard’s mother.

Now that she and Howard were divorced and the house had quieted down, she simply withdrew Amy from that school.

A two-year-old child, who lacked a sense of security so much, needed to stay close to her mother.

Furthermore, since Christina’s scheme hadn’t worked out, she was afraid something else might come up, and she didn’t want Amy to always be aggrieved.

Hearing that she didn’t have to go to school anymore, Amy’s face blossomed into a smile, and Keira stayed home to play with her for a while before receiving a video call from Mary.

Mary placed her phone on the coffee table. “Amy, c give your godmother a kiss!”

Amy then shyly smiled and buried her head into Keira’s

embrace.

Mary couldn’t help but complain. “Look, my goddaughter isn’t even close to me anymore. Keera, it’s all your fault for blocking me for half a year…”

Keira wanted to make some excuses for her sister but

11:24

322 Chapter 321

wasn’t sure what to say when she heard Mary say, “But that’s okay, in the half-year you blocked me, I reflected on myself. I wasn’t considerate enough. Only a person starved of love could be deceived by that scum Howard.”

Mary then looked at the phone. “In the future, I’ll love you even more!”

Keira suddenly laughed, feeling that the friendship between her sister and Mary wasn’t so easily fractured. She really didn’t need to explain anything.

Keira wanted to speak but suddenly heard through Mary’s video call the sound of a door being kicked open with a “bang”…

Immediately after, Mary’s parents rushed in.

Mary was also stunned, and before she could end the

video call, she turned her head just as a slap landed heavily on her face!

“Slap!”

This was from her mother.

Mary covered her face, disbelief in her eyes as she

11:24 –

322 Chapter 321

looked at them. “Mom, what are you doing?”

Her mother’s face was livid, and upon hearing this, she immediately retorted, “What am I doing? Why don’t you tell us what you’ve done?!”

After that, she threw a pregnancy test report in Mary’s

face!

Upon seeing the report, Mary’s pupils constricted slightly, and she looked toward her mother, trying to explain, “I, I…”

“Who’s the father of this bastard child?!”

The angry voice came from her father.

He took a step forward and glared at Mary intensel “Haven’t we taught you to respect and value yourse You cannot do such things! You got pregnant and messed around outside! How are you supposed to get

married now?!”

Mary’s mother began to cry. “That’s right. Are you not going on a blind date with Mr. Horton because of this man?! Are you

confused?!”

Mary looked at them and suddenly clenched her fists. “Dad, Mom, it’s foolish to date and get pregnant, but

11:24

322 Chapter 321

it’s not foolish to marry Lewis, an old widower?!”

Keira, who was beginning to worry for Mary, was dumbfounded.

She silently turned back and glanced at Lewis, who

was quietly watching her and Amy. The “old widower’s” lips twitched.

That was indeed an unmerited disaster.

Keira coughed and continued to watch the video.

Mary had always had a strong presence at home, and her parents lived under her protection, so Keira didn’t think much of it at the time.

But unexpectedly, after Mary said those words, Mar father took a step forward and slapped her again. “Ungrateful creature! Is Mr. Horton the same as ordinary people? If you are so capable, why don’t you sleep with Mr. Horton or Mr. Ellis and have them take responsibility for you?!”

Mary was stunned.

Her father continued to point at her and shouted, “Who will marry you now, looking like this?! If we can’t marry into a wealthy family, how will your mother and

11:24

BAX

322 Chapter 321

I stay in this house in the future?! Even your grandmother will be driven out! She won’t be able to be buried with your grandfather! Mary, do you even understand?!”

Upon hearing this, Mary suddenly laughed. “So, what am I in your eyes? A commodity to trade for glory and wealth?!”

Mary’s mother’s expression froze. “How can you speak of me like that?”

Mary’s father’s face darkened. “No matter what you say, this child must be aborted! And you mustn’t tell anyone about this, understand?”

Mary’s mother then took out an abortion pill from pocket. “We’ve already bought the medicine for you Take it now, Mary. Just do as you’re told. Once you take this medicine, in less than two hours, this

creature will be gone. Then you’ll still be our pure and pristine girl…”

Mary’s eyes widened.

She couldn’t believe what she was seeing, just feeling chills run down her spine.

She had never thought that her own parents would

11:24

74

322 Chapter 321

treat her like this one day…

Mary looked at them in shock, her hands

subconsciously resting on her belly. “Mom, I won’t take it… I want this child!”

Her mother frowned upon hearing this. “Why can’t you just obey?”

Her father also stepped forward. The man who was always frightened by bodyguards and Mary’s uncle suddenly grasped Mary’s arm tightly. “Mary, don’t blame us. We have no choice. You must take this medicine… You have to marry into a wealthy family…”

Mary, in terror, tried to break free from his grip, but how could a girl’s strength compare to a man’s?

Mary’s father held her fast, even prying her mouth open, not giving her a chance to speak again, while Mary’s mother opened the medicine and forced it into her mouth…

Upon witnessing this, Keira panicked and screamed, “Uncle, Auntie! You can’t kill this baby!”

Mary struggled, tears streaming down, but she

couldn’t break free from her father’s restraint and her

mother’s suppression…

11:24

810

322 Chapter 321

Mary’s mother, hearing the voice from the phone, said sternly, “Keera, I know you and Mary are good friends, but you don’t understand. It’s a mistake one makes in youth out of impulsiveness, and you’ll regret it later! This bastard child cannot stay!”

Keira saw the pill about to enter Mary’s mouth, wishing she could travel through the video call to get there, but it was already too late…

She could only yell, “This child is Ellis’s!!”

As soon as Keira shouted these words, the person on the other side immediately stopped their actions.

Mary’s mother was stunned, looking at her phone with disbelief. “What did you say?!”

Mary’s chin was grasped tightly, her body held down, forcibly seated in the chair, unable to speak. Tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

Keira then said, “The child is Ellis’s. If you kill the baby, Ellis won’t let you off!”

That was the only way to protect Mary at the moment.

Mary’s mother threw away the medicine in her hand.

Mary’s father also hurriedly let go of Mary, then, shocked, he looked at her belly and exclaimed with joy, “Is this true?!”

Mary felt completely drained and collapsed on the bed.

Her mother quickly stepped forward. “Mary, are you okay? Was your dad too rough? Did he hurt you? Does your stomach hurt?”

00:20

1/10

323 Chapter 322

Mary’s father also nodded. “Right, right, the baby is okay, right?”

Mary, still terrified, clutched her belly and looked at the phony faces of her parents who were now expressing concern, and she found it utterly laughable!

She clutched her belly and backed away a bit, putting some distance between herself and them.

Seeing her reaction, her father immediately furrowed his brows. “Mary, don’t blame us. We were afraid you were going down the wrong path. With your looks and your family background, it would be a pity not to marry into a wealthy and influential family! Why didn’t you tell us earlier? If you had told us this was Mr. Ellis’s child, I definitely wouldn’t have treated you like that!”

Mary’s mother was equally oblivious of her wrongdoing, nodding along. “Exactly, why didn’t you tell us the truth? When did this happen? Does Mr. Ellis

know? What’s his current stance on this?”

Mary’s father immediately said, “Does he not want to take responsibility? Mary, don’t be afraid. I’ll go to

your uncle right away and demand accountability from the Olsen family! We’ll make Mr. Ellis marry you!”

His hands rubbed together excitedly, as if glory and riches were already within his grasp.

Mary’s mother was even more overjoyed. “Yes, yes, besides, we’ll demand an ample dowry from them. Our Mary is marrying Mr. Ellis… Indeed, Ellis is a better choice than Mr. Horton’s second marriage! Mary, you really do have great foresight!”

Mary watched as her parents were about to leave and suddenly cried out in alarm. “You must not go to him!”

Her parents were taken aback and turned their heads.

to look at her.

Mary was trembling, overcome with a sense of shame

She could almost imagine Ellis hearing this news, the mocking smile on his lips, and that disdainful look in his eyes…

How could she have such parents?

Her eyes reddened as she looked at them. “If you dare to tell Ellis, I’ll immediately terminate the pregnancy!!”

Her father immediately frowned. “What are you talking

323 Chapter 322

about, Mary?”

Mary’s mother also said bluntly, “You’re not allowed to abort this child! How else will you marry Mr. Ellis?! Mary, do you have something wrong with your head?!”

Mary felt there was no point in talking with them

anymore.

She glared angrily at both of them, feeling deeply powerless, and sat defeated on the bed, saying, “In any case, if anyone goes to Ellis, I’ll terminate the pregnancy immediately!”

Mary’s mother was hesitant as she exchanged a look with Mary’s father, both of them asking with

puzzlement, “What do you mean by this? Is it not Ellis’s baby?”

Upon hearing this, Mary saw her mother glance again at the abortion pills, and Mary clenched her fists tight

How ridiculous she felt now!

All she wanted was to pick up the dignity she had once shed, piece by piece, to regain her self-respect in front of Ellis, but her parents were always pulling her deeper into the abyss.
