My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！ - Chapter 384

Chapter 383
Keira was about to turn 23 years old.

….
Trevor dispatched someone to Oceanion a few days ago to bring her back and let everyone meet this rumored senior sister.

He was very fond of this disciple.

Trevor was a very earnest person. After becoming the Sect Leader, taking in disciples was extremely important, as it related to the selection of the next Sect Leader for the Freeman Sect.

Yet after assessing the talent and bones of his own family’s offspring, including his own son, as well as children from Clance coming to seek martial arts training, he found none to his satisfaction.

As a result, he delayed the decision for many years.

He would rather go without than make do with a substandard substitute, so he refused to take on any disciple. His own younger brother, who was also James’s master, became very sought after at that time.

Everyone was speculating that James might marry into the Freeman family, inheriting the Freeman Sect and becoming the next Sect Leader.

Trevor thought so too.

However, this was the worst-case scenario. Given the choice, of course, he wanted the best in the world.

He began traveling around the country, trying to find the most suitable child, until seven years ago when he arrived in Oceanion.

Back then, he was watching children running around in a park, but he somehow took a liking to a little girl who was selling balloons.

The little girl must have just finished school, so she arrived late and could only stand selling balloons in a corner.

The vendor next to her bullied her, telling her to sit down so that she wouldn’t block the other people’s view.

The little girl didn’t bring a chair, so she simply stood there in a squatting posture.

Trevor found it amusing.

Those who practiced martial arts knew how tiring holding that position was. He wanted to see how long the little girl could withstand, and an hour went by… two hours went by…

The little girl had persisted in that half-squatting position for a whole three and a half hours!

And the key was that she did so without changing her expression.

Trevor immediately began observing her bone structure, and upon seeing it, he was drawn to her like a starving wolf that had spotted meat.

Thus followed his insistence on teaching her martial arts and having her call him master.

It was only later that he discovered the little girl had a formidable mother who, from a young age, subjected her to beatings and scolding; the reason she was so resilient and had such a strong physique was due to that torment.

Even though the child was already fifteen years old, her body’s age was around ten due to chronic malnourishment; she hadn’t missed the optimal age to begin martial arts training.

No normal child would grow up in such an extreme environment, so her inhuman mother, in an indirect way, had actually done her a favor.

Seeing her potential, Trevor wanted her to quit school and follow him, but Keira insisted on continuing her education. Finding no other choice, he settled down in Oceanion for her sake.

Keira started from practicing an hour each day to two hours, and finally, she managed to defeat him!

After Trevor had taught her all he could, he decided to leave, telling her he would come to take her home after she graduated from university at the age of 23.

How could the senior sister of the Freeman Sect be left to wander outside?

After he returned to the Freeman Sect, he mentioned this to his younger brother and the sect’s disciples, and since then, everyone was joyfully awaiting the senior sister’s return at the age of 23!

After a long wait, Trevor was unable to leave due to sect affairs, so he sent someone to fetch Keira. However, when the person returned, they reported that the Keira, also known as Mrs. Horton, had drowned!!

Trevor couldn’t believe this and made a personal trip to Oceanion, where he indeed saw her tombstone and the photo on it.

It was his dear disciple!

Trevor found it incredibly hard to believe. Shaken, he returned to Clance and became despondent, shutting himself in his room.

Sure, I’ll correct and refine the text as requested:

Now, the entire Freeman Sect still didn’t know that the eldest senior sister had met with an accident.

He didn’t dare to think about it. How incredibly sad, distressed, and pained the entire Freeman Sect would be if he revealed this news.

He looked at the photo of himself together with Keira on the phone, at the girl’s clear, bright, and beautiful expression as if her voice and smile were still in front of him, making his eyes redden.

His beloved disciple probably didn’t know until her death that she was actually the eldest senior sister of Crera’s greatest martial arts sect, the Freeman Sect, did she? Nor did she understand her importance to the Freeman Sect.

Trevor thought of this and once again clutched his chest, his eyes reddened from crying, becoming teary once more.

So, when he heard James’s words, he suddenly felt a bit panicked and blurted out, “This is not a good time!”

In front of others, he had always been the stern Sect Leader; how could he face anyone when he was crying like this?!

James’s footsteps paused slightly. Sensing something off in his voice, James asked, “Master, are you feeling unwell?”

Unwell? His heart was practically breaking apart!

Who could have imagined that the future of the Freeman Sect, his disciple, would be drowned to death? Wasn’t she able to swim?

Trevor, with tears in his eyes, sobbed and said, “I’m fine.”

James was perplexed. Outside, James and Keira looked at each other, both a bit confused about the situation.

However, Keira glanced at the door, feeling that the voice inside sounded slightly familiar. But her master was always smiling; the voice inside carried a crying tone, rendering her unable to recognize it.

Yet James, concerned and flustered, asked, “Master, are you sure nothing is wrong? My…”

In the split second when the word “aunt” was about to escape his lips, James realized Keira had just now preferred not to be called that in public, so he quickly changed his way of addressing her. “My friend knows a bit of medicine, why not let her check on you?”

James felt that since Keira managed to diagnose Bobby’s brain tumor, she must be a very skilled doctor.

Keira tried to stop him, “I’m not…”

However, James didn’t listen to her at all. “You don’t need to explain further; just help take a look at my Sect Leader. He’s usually very healthy, rarely even catching a cold. What’s wrong with his voice today?

I’ve heard that there’s a new virus going around, targeting people’s throats specifically. Master, you haven’t been infected by this strain, have you? You can’t ignore it; you need timely medical diagnosis and treatment!”

Trevor thought, “How could this brat be so annoying?!”

He hastily took out a tissue, wiped his tears, and then tried to speak with as much dignity as possible. “I’m fine! Go away! I can’t meet anyone today!”

James didn’t want to leave just like that. What if Keira complained to his uncle, claiming he wasn’t diligent in his duties?

He coughed lightly. “Master, please don’t say that. You sound strange, so there must be a problem! I’m coming in now.”

Leaving that statement, he stepped forward and pushed open the door. Then he winked at Keira, striding into the room with her!

“Master, my friend here is quite capable, so let her have a look at you. By the way, could you give my friend a little help with something?”
