My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！ - Chapter 372
Chapter 371
Indeed.
….
Just now, Uncle Olsen had all but confirmed that the Keera was indeed Keira.
He had already had people investigate Keera and found that for over twenty years, she had been extremely timid.
A person’s character couldn’t change overnight.
Moreover, if he wasn’t mistaken, the young man driving the car for “Keera” was actually Lewis.
He couldn’t believe that Lewis would fall out of love so quickly. That brat was stubborn to a fault and couldn’t possibly get over Keira that fast.
So, this “Keera” had to be Keira.
Yet, his smile slowly faded away.
His heart was filled with joy, yet also with sorrow.
The joy was because Keira was still alive.
The sorrow was because if Keira was alive, then the one who had died had to be the real Keera.
Either way, she was his biological daughter.
Uncle Olsen cast his gaze downward and said softly, “Let’s go home.”
They still had to find a way to locate Jodie South…
The car quickly returned to the Olsen’s estate.
In the Olsen mansion, Victoria and Christina were shivering in their room.
Christina was getting anxious. “Victoria, do you think Keera really is Uncle Olsen’s daughter? If she comes back, will there even be a place for us here?”
Victoria was even more upset. “Stop talking! Even if she comes back, we’re still adopted daughters of the Olsen family. Our place is secured. It’s just that our status might decline!”
Without any biological daughter in the family, they were the privileged women.
With Keera around, they instantly became common and unvalued.
Currently, they were treated like princesses and more pampered than real heiresses like Rebecca and the Davis family girls, but if Keera returned…
Victoria clenched her fists and suddenly said, “The Horton and Olsen families still have a marriage alliance…”
This thought seemed to give Christina a pillar of strength. “Right, the Horton and Olsen families have a marriage alliance, and the only one in the family who’s not married is you! Although Keera is divorced, she comes with a child, and the Hortons definitely won’t accept that. Victoria, I’ll be relying on you in the future!”
Victoria withdrew her hand, looking disdainfully at the fool before her.
When they finally heard the sound of a car downstairs, Christina immediately gestured to Victoria with her hand. “Shh…”
Both of them opened the door and quietly went to the corridor, looking down at the floor below.
Indeed, Ellis had already gone to greet the person. “Uncle, how did it go? Are you going to announce to the public that Keera is your biological daughter and my cousin?”
Uncle Olsen shook his head, “Not yet…”
After all, the banquet wouldn’t be held until a week later!
Yet this exchange made the two people upstairs feel relieved.
Christina whispered, “It must be because of the disgraceful things Keera has done. Uncle is afraid of bringing her back and losing face, right?”
Victoria had the same thought.
After all, a divorced woman with a child… it would sound terrible if word got out that the Olsen family had such a daughter!
No one would ever want to marry her!
Even if Uncle Olsen adored this daughter, he wouldn’t acknowledge her and turn the Olsen family into a laughingstock of Clance; at most, he would give her some compensation.
While they were thinking, they heard Uncle Olsen say, “Has that Horton brat come to Clance yet?”
Ellis immediately replied, “He’s been here for a while. Why? Uncle, are you thinking of rekindling the marriage alliance between the Horton and Olsen families? Should this alliance continue?”
Upon hearing this, Uncle Olsen finally broke into a smile. “Yes, of course!”
Keira and Lewis were supposed to be a perfect match, weren’t they? What else was there to continue? It was already a done deal!
However, Ellis misunderstood Uncle Olsen as endorsing the union between Keira and Lewis, so he nodded. “Okay, then I’ll continue to push this matter forward. When two big corporations engage in a marriage alliance, it needs to be publicized.”
Marriage alliances between large conglomerates were of a commercial nature. Announcing this news would benefit not only the Olsen family but also the Horton family, which had just entered the Clance market!
Moreover, this comment had already spread throughout Clance. The two families hadn’t yet responded, and now that they were about to respond, it was akin to building momentum in advance!
As they talked, they walked side by side toward the study next door.
Suddenly, Uncle Olsen said, “Last night was your wedding night. Why weren’t you at home? Where did you go?”
Ellis paused slightly.
Uncle Olsen asked again, “And your wife?”
Ellis paused once more.
He quickly changed the subject. “Uncle, you’ve been away from Clance for a month, and there are many matters in the company that I need to report to you…”
“Don’t bother. You can make the decisions. I’m getting old, and sooner or later the company will have to be handed over to you. Go bring your wife back home now…”
Ellis hesitated.
Uncle Olsen’s gaze dropped as he patted Ellis’s shoulder. “Ellis, you’re still young, and you don’t understand. Cherish everything you have. To be together is fate.”
Ellis’s steps faltered slightly.
But Uncle Olsen entered the study by himself without looking at Ellis.
Ellis pursed his lips, then let out a silent sigh and turned to leave the house.
It really wasn’t acceptable that Mary disappeared from home on the second day of their marriage. The stock of Olsen Group must not fluctuate because of him.
It wasn’t until Ellis also left that Christina and Victoria finally straightened up.
Christina smiled ingratiatingly at Victoria. “Victoria, did you hear that? The marriage alliance between the Horton and Olsen families is still going ahead… It’s settled! Once you become Mrs. Horton, you’ll never have to worry about being an adopted daughter of the Olsen family again!”
Victoria’s lips curved up in a smile.
Christina breathed a sigh of relief as well. With Victoria backing her in the future, she wouldn’t lead such a miserable life.
Just as she thought of this, her phone suddenly rang.
She picked it up, and the voice of a kindergarten teacher came through. “Hello, is this Bobby’s parent?”
Christina immediately said, “Yes, that’s me.”
“Please come to the kindergarten immediately!”
Christina’s fingers clenched. “What do you mean? Who asked you to call me?”
The call seemed to be snatched away before she could finish, as Keira’s cool voice came through. “It’s me. Come here right now!”
“Keira?! What did you do to my son!”
Christina cried out in alarm. “Are you trying to get back at me out of sheer malice? Don’t you go too far! I’m not someone you can bully! I’m on my way!”
After shouting these words, Christina’s eyes reddened. She turned to Victoria. “Victoria, I’m going to the kindergarten!”
Victoria nodded.
Christina was, after all, Bobby’s mother and anxious about her son. She drove straight to the kindergarten.
As soon as she entered, she saw Bobby standing in the yard as punishment, crying so hard that his whole body was shaking.
Keira said, “You arrived just in time. Take him and leave immediately.”
