My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！ - Chapter 312
Chapter 312 Chapter 311
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 found him shameless.
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 the little boy from her childhood?
The ring was made of jade, its emerald color indicating it was expensive. How did it end up in Lewis’s possession?
Furrowing her brows, she heard Lewis’s voice.
“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 remembered everything from our childhood clearly and claimed she was that girl. I asked her for the ring as a token. She told me she lost it. She was abused by her parents, suffered 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 a lump in her throat.
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 forward and embraced her tightly. “Keira, do you know how much I regret it?! I just wanted to surprise you, to tell you the truth at the courthouse, to tell you I’ll marry no one but you in this life, to tell you that you are my lifesaver. But I never imagined that you would be in an 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.
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 breathe!
Until today, until this moment, until now!
He was still filled with remorse and regret, questioning why he hadn’t just explained everything over the phone, why he had to come up with such a lousy surprise…
Keira felt the slight tremble of his body and suddenly understood his intention.
She reached out and hugged him.
The response was an intense, trembling 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…
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 the scene inside was only visible every now and then.
Here’s the revised and connected version of the passage:
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 was already ten in the morning. She was startled, quickly glanced at the man lying next 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 mopping the floor.
Keira exclaimed, “Where’s Amy?”
Mary grinned teasingly at her and said, “Knew you wouldn’t be getting up today, so I sent her off to the early learning center!”
Keira was perplexed. As she puzzled over this, Mary cheekily leaned in and bluntly said, “Keera, good for you! I was wondering why you finally agreed to divorce that scumbag Howard; turns out you’ve got a new flame! Last night was pretty intense…”
Keira’s cheeks immediately turned a burning red. Thinking about the excitement from last night, she felt a bit embarrassed. She hadn’t expected Lewis, who seemed so restrained, to have such a variety of moves. As she leaned against the door, she couldn’t hold back and let out a moan…
Keira hastily put a stop to the R-rated scenes in her brain, trying hard to forget the details of last night. She coughed and said, “Well, I…”
But Mary cut her off, speaking very seriously. “Keira, 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 to get a sandwich the maid had prepared. As she ate, she heard Mary click her tongue twice. “Keera, plans are 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 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 five 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 freak; he wouldn’t wear yesterday’s clothes, so Keira could only find an unworn set of lounge wear that belonged 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, you’ve got 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 name?”
