My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire! - Chapter 294
Chapter 294 She‘s Keira
Howard wrote two waivers, indicating that he had no relation with Amy from then on, before turning to Keira. “You, sign this!”
….
Before Keira had a chance to act, Howard’s mother stepped forward and grabbed her hand. “When we tell you to sign, you sign. Don’t even think about clinging to Howard. Once you’re divorced, you and that loser better stay far away from us!”
Keira seemed intimidated. She signed her name mournfully.
Howard immediately picked up the divorce agreement and the waiver, then excitedly stood up. He exchanged a look with Cindy, and the two, along with Howard’s mother, promptly walked out.
Howard’s mother said, “Are we leaving in such a hurry?”
Howard said, “Absolutely, to prevent this woman from demanding any more living expenses from us!”
Howard’s mother felt a bit reluctant. “Once we leave here, where will we live?”
Cindy said with a smile, “Auntie, move to my place first. I have a three-bedroom apartment.”
“Alright, Cindy, I’ll take care of you in the future. You’re pregnant and shouldn’t be overworked!”
Howard’s mother immediately picked up her suitcase and followed behind the two.
Just as they reached the door, they encountered the ashen-faced Ellis.
Howard was terrified. “Mr. Ellis? When, when did you get here?”
Ellis coldly looked at him.
Then his gaze shifted to Keira, who had her back to them.
Keira seemed to be weeping, with her shoulders trembling slightly, fueling his anger helplessly.
He said, “Howard, is this how you treat your lawful wife?”
Howard was stupefied, then swallowed hard. “Mr. Ellis, my divorce from Keera is mutual. We…”
Since it was all out in the open, there was no point in hiding it anymore. He immediately smoothed things over with a grin. “Everything on the divorce agreement is also what she agreed to…”
“Agreed to?”
Ellis strode toward Keira and said bluntly, “I saw with my own eyes that you and your mother were pressuring her. When did she agree… uh…”
With that sentence, he also got a clear look at Keira’s face.
Yet it wasn’t the tear-streaked face he had expected. On that makeup-free face, there was not a single trace of tears, and there was even a hint of a smile!
Her shoulder movements were due to suppressing laughter, not at all because she was crying.
However, none of these were the point!
The point was… the person in front of him, wasn’t this damn Keira?!
He stood there, stunned!
Keira, afraid that Howard would change his mind about the divorce once he saw her appearance, still turned her back to Howard but glared at Ellis.
She was annoyed that this man had almost ruined her plans and feigned grievance as she said, “Mr. Ellis, my divorce from Howard was indeed voluntary. It’s beyond his control how he treats me. Blame me for not seeing through people, being calculated against by a close friend…”
Ellis was dumbfounded.
Howard, unable to see the change in their expressions but noticing that Keera was willing to cover for him, immediately breathed a sigh of relief and cautiously dragged his suitcase towards the door. “Mr. Ellis, you heard her. She agreed of her own accord. We… we’ll be leaving now!”
After leaving that statement behind, he feared that Ellis would settle scores with him, so he took his mother and Cindy and immediately ran out, driving away from the place at a breakneck speed.
Once he had left, Ellis was still in shock.
He gazed at Keira in astonishment and only after a while did he find his voice again. “Keira? What… what are you doing here?”
Keira feigned confusion. “I’m sorry, but I am Keera. Keira is Mrs. Horton, right? I attended her funeral…”
Ellis was dumbfounded.
He stared intently at that face. “No, you’re Keira, what are you playing at? Don’t you know that after you ‘died,’ Lewis Horton nearly tortured himself to death? Since you’re not dead, why aren’t you hurrying home?”
Keira lowered her head. “I know her. It seems I look very much like her, but really, I am Keera.”
She turned her head, pointing to the picture frame of her and Amy that was hanging on the wall, and then looked at Ellis. “I’ve always lived here. I truly don’t know the person you are talking about…”
Ellis looked at the picture frame, puzzled.
The assistant immediately stepped forward from behind. “Mr. Ellis, the Keera we investigated indeed looks like this. I have all her photos from childhood to adulthood right here…”
Ellis immediately looked at the files on the assistant’s phone, going through the photos one by one, and realized that the person in front of him was truly Keera. But… Keera and Keira looked so similar that they could only be twins!
Keera was the daughter of his third uncle… Did that mean Keira was also his daughter?! Upon further thought, Ellis was stunned. So, the daughter of Mrs. Olsen was the daughter of Uncle Olsen? His mind felt a bit chaotic, and he couldn’t sort out these relationships for a moment…
Keira, fearing he might spout nonsense, lowered her head and pretended to be weak. “Mr. Ellis, why have you come?”
It took a moment for Ellis to react and understand, and then he looked at her with disdain. “Why have I come? Isn’t it to support you? Keera, right? If you and Keira are twins, how come you don’t have her spirit?! Look at the state you’re in!”
Keira kept her head down, not speaking. Ellis, observing her timid appearance, felt a surge of anger welling up inside him. He cursed, “This husband you’ve found, just look at him. He only cares about outsiders. And your bestie, she’s schemed against you behind your back. Keera, to live the way you have, that’s really something!”
Keira was startled. Only then did she realize that Ellis had investigated her. And just then, her phone vibrated. She opened it to find a WhatsApp message from Mary. “Keera, have you divorced yet?”
Keira replied, “Divorced. Where are you? Let’s celebrate.”
Mary said, “I’m busy tonight, let’s do it tomorrow.”
Keira suddenly had a bad feeling. “What are you doing tonight?”
Mary, however, didn’t reply again. Keira furrowed her brows when she heard Ellis speak. “But don’t worry, I’ll get back at your husband for you. As for your bestie Mary, I’ve already taken care of that!”
These words made Keira’s pupils shrink. She rushed to Ellis and grabbed his arm forcefully. “What have you done to Mary?!”
Ellis, seeing her anxious demeanor and recalling that Keera wasn’t crying before but laughing… Suddenly, the things Mary had said flashed through his mind… Ellis abruptly realized something and grabbed Keira’s wrist. “You wanted the divorce yourself? Mary was just going along with your plan?!”
“Yes.”
Ellis’s hand slightly loosened. Then he abruptly turned to the assistant. “Where is Mary staying tonight?”
The assistant didn’t react immediately. “Who?”
“Mary Davis!”
Meanwhile, Mary had already turned off her phone, took a deep breath, and walked to the door of a private room in the hotel. She gently pushed it open and walked in. As soon as she entered, Mr. Lynch grabbed her hair, and then his disgusting breath was sprayed by her ear. “Tsk tsk, you dare to play me? Tonight, you’ll know what I’m capable of!”
Having said that, he tugged at Mary’s clothes and dragged her into the bathroom!
