My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！ - Chapter 489
Chapter 488
Austin was taken aback.
….
He was confused. “As in the Horton Group’s Lewis Horton?”
Keira nodded.
Austin took another glance at Lewis and smiled at him. “Lewis?”
Lewis didn’t speak, which was as good as a confirmation.
Austin pulled a face and then said to Keira, “Are you kidding me? Do you honestly think Lewis has nothing better to do than to drive you around?”
Keira didn’t know what to say.
Lewis, who apparently had nothing better to do, didn’t know what to say either.
Just as Keira was about to explain, Austin stood up. “Alright, you don’t have to tease me anymore. Don’t ignore the warning my mom just gave you. There’s a mole in the Olsen family, so be careful! And as for the Horton family’s banquet, take it seriously and remember to bring a gift.”
Leaving these words behind, he stood up and left.
Lewis was speechless.
“Can’t you, like, clarify things before you go? What gift?!”
Keira, on the other hand, shook her head and smiled.
After they finished eating, Keira seemed to be growing impatient with shopping and said, “Do you find shopping boring? Let’s just go home.”
Lewis’s steps faltered slightly, and he coughed and loosened his tie. “It’s not boring, why would it be boring?”
Keira had wanted to find an excuse to leave and didn’t expect such a reply.
She coughed. “I think it’s boring.”
“…”
Lewis looked at her with an expression that was hard to describe. “How about we go buy a gift for the Horton family’s banquet? Austin just reminded you to bring a gift.”
Keira waved her hand. “That won’t be necessary. The Olsen family will prepare it for me.”
Lewis was speechless.
He felt that getting a birthday gift was turning out to be really hard!
He trudged behind Keira, both hands carrying bags. It was a pity none of the things inside were for him.
Lewis followed Keira all the way to the underground parking lot.
Seeing that Keira was really about to leave, he decided to ask for the gift himself and to clarify things.
Lewis coughed. “Keira, actually, that Horton family’s banquet is about…”
“Shh…”
Keira suddenly turned around, placing a finger on his lips.
Lewis was slightly startled.
Keira immediately pointed ahead.
Following her finger, Lewis saw a man and a woman embracing and kissing…
The man’s hand had slipped into the woman’s clothes…
The woman let out a shy moan, sounding as if her body had gone limp.
Keira craned her neck further, wanting to see, but Lewis covered her eyes.
Keira immediately glared at him.
Lewis chuckled softly. “That’s not appropriate.”
Keira rolled her eyes and continued. “Is it spring already? These two are getting frisky in a public place…”
Although this was a parking lot, there were many people coming and going.
They were in a corner, and a kiss might have been fine, but the pair was clearly doing more than that… definitely not a pretty sight.
As Keira and Lewis turned to leave, they heard the couple’s conversation.
“Honey, does it feel good?”
The woman moaned softly, her voice sounding almost intoxicated. “It feels good. You’re amazing.”
“It can be more exciting, do you want it?”
“Sure…”
“But I’m not in the mood. I can’t muster the energy.”
“Fine, I know you’ve been eyeing that watch. I didn’t have enough balance in my card just now, so I’ll ask my boyfriend for money later and buy it for you…”
“Thank you, Honey!”
After the young man joyfully said this, things got more excited.
The woman’s voice was obviously suppressed, but by the time Keira got into the car, she couldn’t hold back anymore…
Keira pursed her lips and looked at Lewis. “Can you believe how nice she is to that man? She’s actually tricking her boyfriend into spending money on him!”
Lewis smiled and said nothing.
Today, Keira had completed the cooperation with the Gill family, which meant she had managed to cooperate with all five great families of Clance. The South family should have sent her instructions for the next step by now.
But no message had come.
So she was anxious.
Otherwise, why would she criticize others like that?
Seeing Keira about to speak, Lewis suddenly moved closer to her.
Keira was startled by his movement. The next moment, he was looking at her seriously, then suddenly chuckled. “Honey, can you use your fiancé’s money to buy me a gift?”
Keira didn’t know what to say.
The man’s handsome face was close at hand, and his breath sprayed on her cheek, making her heart flutter for a moment…
His feigned innocence only fueled Keira’s desire to tease him…
She couldn’t help but swallow hard and coughed.
Lewis had no idea that he was unintentionally flirting with her, and he was still thinking about his birthday present, so he continued. “Honey, can you buy me a gift?”
He spoke word by word, with utmost seduction. “After all, soon it will be my birth…”
Before he could finish saying “day,” he was suddenly pushed away.
Keira’s face flushed as she scolded him in a soft voice, “Just drive!”
Lewis was speechless.
He tugged at the corners of his mouth and could only start the car with great force!
It seemed he was destined to miss out on birthday presents this year!
All because of that South family!
And why hadn’t the Gill family signed the contract sooner?! It had distracted Keira!
Lewis complained in his head while driving Keira back to the South residence.
As soon as she entered the doorway, Keira shared the things she had bought with everyone.
There were Amy’s clothes, Amy’s toys, and maternity clothes for Mary, radiation protection suits… and so on.
Everyone received gifts except for the birthday boy himself!
Lewis felt heartbroken.
Watching her, who immediately started playing with Amy and Mary, he couldn’t help but take a deep breath. “Keira, I still have work to do. I’m going upstairs.”
It was supposed to be a statement made in anger, but Keira dismissed him without even looking back. “Sure, go ahead!”
Lewis thus went upstairs feeling gloomy and dejected.
As a result, that afternoon, both the Horton Group and Lewis’s international powers felt a stormy rage from their boss.
“If you can’t even handle this small matter, what’s the use of keeping you? You must work overtime tonight and give me an answer!”
After Lewis finished a meeting and hung up the conference call, he received a message from Tom. “Boss, are you in a bad mood today?”
Lewis replied coldly with a question mark.
Tom said, “You’ve been speaking in rhetorical questions all day, taking it out on people.”
Lewis sent another question mark.
Tom said, “If you’re in a bad mood, it’s one thing to vent at us, but don’t take it out on Miss Olsen. She’s already under enough pressure.”
He hoped the young couple wouldn’t get into trouble over some trivial matter.
Seeing this message, Lewis paused for a moment.
Then he gradually calmed down.
Tom was right… He certainly couldn’t vent his frustration on Keira!
He took a deep breath and then headed to the bathroom for a shower.
After a busy afternoon, they had a dull dinner in the evening.
Afterward, Keira turned to Mary. “Mary, there is something I want to tell you…”
The two of them retreated to a separate room.
Lewis was speechless.
He felt like he was an adopted husband!
He went upstairs in low spirits and lay in the empty bedroom, quietly staring at the ceiling.
He didn’t know how much time had passed and had almost fallen asleep when the bedroom door was finally pushed open, and Keira slipped in.
Lewis rolled over.
He was still feeling slightly frustrated.
Then he heard a sneaky sound behind him, followed by Keira’s voice, “Are you asleep?”
Lewis didn’t answer, indicating he was very angry.
Keira asked again, but Lewis still didn’t reply.
He decided he wouldn’t pay attention to Keira today!
After all, in two minutes, it would be tomorrow.
While he was thinking about this, the sound behind him stopped.
Lewis was perplexed.
Couldn’t she try harder?
As he wrestled with these thoughts, suddenly a faint exclamation came from behind, “Ouch!”
Lewis immediately sat upright and turned to look!
At that moment, he was completely frozen in place.
