My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！ - Chapter 409
Chapter 408
Howard was also looking at Keira.
….
He had been unable to find a job for a long time and had been drinking and smoking every day recently. Hence, he looked so haggard.
Ever since he learned that Keera had revived the company and even started cooperating with the Olsen and Davis families, he had thought about reconciling with Keera several times.
Unfortunately, just like his mother, he was stopped by the security guard every time.
On a few occasions, he had snuck into the neighbourhood at night, but as he approached Keera’s house, he was suddenly knocked out and thrown outside.
Fortunately, it wasn’t snowing anymore; otherwise, he could have frozen to death outside.
But since then, he had realized that Keera must have gotten involved with some influential person, and he would never get to see her.
A few days ago, someone sought him out and told him that Keera was actually the illegitimate daughter of the Olsen family!
This revelation stunned him!
How could that be possible?
She was an orphan adopted by the South family. How could she have such a powerful background?
Yet, the person gave him an address and told him to come today to see for himself…
When he arrived at the banquet entrance, a waiter grabbed him and let him and his mother, who lacked an invitation, in.
Now, he was finally able to see Keera again…
The woman in front of him was still standing tall and graceful, her face as beautiful as a flower, making him wish he could slap himself!
How could he have ever found such a Keera boring and got lured away by another woman?
He was so blind!
Therefore, when his mother rushed forward, trying to make Keera reconsider, he didn’t stop her; he also wanted to remarry Keera!
But to his surprise, his mother hadn’t even touched a hair on Keera’s head when she was grabbed by bodyguards who came from nowhere.
Two bodyguards stood in front of Keera, looking toward Howard.
It seemed that if he dared to make any move, they would act immediately.
The bodyguards emanated a deadly aura, and they were people Howard wouldn’t have dared to even look at in the past… and now they were here protecting Keera…
Howard smiled ingratiatingly. “Keera, it’s me. Would you let me come over and have a proper talk with you?”
Keira just gave a cold smile, not saying anything.
Howard’s mother continued. “Keera, you can’t just ignore your mother-in-law. I can’t get enough food or clothing living in Cindy’s house. I am your mother-in-law, and you have to take care of me!”
Keira only said, “I am divorced. How are you my mother-in-law?”
Howard’s mother suddenly yelled, “Oh, so now that you’ve climbed the social ladder, you want to disown us! We’ll go to Amy, then. I’m Amy’s grandmother, and this is Amy’s father. She has a duty to provide for us!”
Keira only found Howard’s mother shameless.
She scoffed. “Amy is only three years old. You want her to provide for you? Sure, why don’t you try to live until she’s eighteen and become independent?”
Howard’s mother was shocked.
She struggled, trying to break free from the bodyguards to give Keera a good scolding. “Keera, don’t go too far! We have come back to give you a chance! You should be satisfied now! Make the bodyguards let us go so that we can take our seats at the banquet!”
Then she looked toward Uncle Olsen. “Dear in-law, we’re family!”
Uncle Olsen was speechless.
He simply couldn’t bear to watch.
He really didn’t know how Keera usually dealt with these two people…
He lowered his eyes, hiding his anger.
The real Keera had died, and he didn’t know what had happened or why Keera had died under the name Keira, and Keira was living under the name Keera.
But he knew that these two bastards had bullied his deceased daughter! Even the humbled life his daughter once lived was because of them. Yet, perversely, they were indeed the grandmother and father of his daughter’s child, and they were going to ruthlessly exploit Amy in the future…
If that was the case, then they didn’t need to be alive after today!
A murderous intent began to rise in Uncle Olsen’s chest. Howard and his mother, however, failed to read his expression, only thinking that this high and mighty man hadn’t spoken because he might be tacitly approving their actions.
Howard immediately turned to Keira. “Keira, I know I was wrong. I’ll break up with Cindy and come home with you!”
Keira found it laughable. Victoria then said, “Keira, they are Amy’s father and grandmother, after all. You…!”
“Shut up!” Victoria’s words were not yet finished when James and Charles jumped up, angrily staring at her.
Victoria immediately became aggrieved, and with a pitiful expression, she said, “I… I was just thinking that in Crera, people encourage reconciliation rather than separation. There’s a saying, ‘It is better to demolish ten temples than to destroy one marriage.’ So I…”
“That’s for others. Does this man deserve that consideration?” James frowned and rebuked.
How could they let that happen when Keira had finally stopped doing stupid things for love?
Victoria dared not speak further, lest her intent become too obvious and be discovered. Joseph’s daughter, however, let out a cold laugh. “Keira, Howard has merely made a mistake that any man could make. Why did he cheat on you? You should look for reasons within yourself. Are you not good enough? Is that why you couldn’t keep your husband?”
Keira didn’t say anything. Howard then knelt on the ground. “Keira, I’ve realized my mistake. Please forgive me! Can’t we go back to being the happy family of three we once were? I promise, if we remarry, I’ll take good care of you and Amy…”
Listening to these words, a faint light flickered in Keira’s eyes.
“Sister, can you hear this? This scumbag has admitted his faults. If it were you, would you forgive him?”
At the thought, Keira began to laugh, a sense of relief washing over her. Keira wouldn’t. She had never been infatuated with him. She had only married him to use that useless facade to deceive the South family, in hopes of gaining her freedom.
Keira said, “Get lost!”
At these words, Uncle Olsen waved his hand, and bodyguards stepped forward, grabbing hold of Howard and his mother. The two of them suddenly shouted.
“Keira, if you throw us out, who are you planning to marry?”
“Guys, listen! Keira is second-hand goods I’ve been with. I’m such trash; do you really want to pick up what I’ve discarded?”
Howard was like a madman, completely disregarding the setting. He knew that the moment Keira remarried, he would lose all opportunities. He was playing the scoundrel now and would later coax Amy. He believed he still had a chance!
Joseph’s daughter also sneered with a swollen face. “Keira, I think you should give him another chance. Remarry him! After all, besides Howard, no one else would marry you!!”
Almost immediately after these words were uttered, a voice suddenly came from the entrance. “Who says no one would marry Miss Olsen?!”
With that, the Horton family’s betrothal gifts finally made their entrance!
