How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire -
Chapter 233 - Chapter 233 Chapter 233
Chapter 233: Chapter 233 Chapter 233: Chapter 233 Keira Olsen looked at Lewis Horton in surprise.
When he came, he casually mentioned that Madeleine Davis had saved his life but didn’t go into detail.
Was it also about trafficking and kidnapping…?
Except unlike her, he was nearly killed that year?
In that case, it indeed counted as saving his life.
No wonder Lewis Horton was so accommodating toward Madeleine Davis.
As she was thinking, Lewis Horton had already spoken, his voice deep and carrying a tinge of lingering tenderness, “Sorry, it was careless of me to speak.”
He still clutched Keira Olsen’s hand tightly, his gaze complex as he looked at Madeleine Davis, earnestly explaining, “I thought a promise made in childhood is still a promise. Although I don’t like you, I could stay unmarried for my entire life, be there when you needed me, but I never expected to be engaged to Keira, nor did I expect to fall in love with her. During this time, I’ve thought about it a lot.”
He slowly, pausing between each word, said, “Between you and her, I am destined to let one down, so I choose her.”
“Miss Davis, I won’t come anymore, and you don’t need to call me again. I won’t stop covering your medical expenses; you can ask the director if you need anything else. Aside from companionship, I will try to fulfill all your material needs!”
Upon hearing this, Madeleine Davis’s face turned pale.
After leaving these words, he didn’t give Madeleine Davis a chance to speak, and directly pulled Keira Olsen away, turning around to leave.
Keira Olsen followed him out of the hospital room, and suddenly behind them came Madeleine Davis’s hoarse and desperate calls.
Unfortunately, Lewis Horton never looked back.
Keira Olsen was no saint; she didn’t think Madeleine Davis pitiful, just pathetic.
The way Lewis Horton was so decisive now with Madeleine Davis was because he was deeply committed to her.
She looked at Lewis Horton holding her hand and firmly grasped back.
She thought, as long as Lewis Horton doesn’t let go of her hand, she might never let go of his for the rest of her life…
The two left the hospital and drove away.
On the road, Lewis Horton’s phone kept ringing.
Lewis Horton took a glance at it and then directly blocked Madeleine Davis.
A moment later, the director called again…
When Lewis Horton answered, the director’s voice came through, “Mr. Horton, Miss Davis is trying to harm herself again!”
Lewis Horton just responded indifferently, “The patient is yours; I’m not a doctor.”
The director was taken aback.
Lewis Horton’s gaze fixed ahead: “Don’t contact me anymore…”
“Ah? Okay, okay,”
The director seemed taken aback by his cold response but afterward immediately nodded.
Keira Olsen didn’t speak; instead, she just went home with him.
After parking the car, the two sneaked a peek at old Mrs. Horton, and seeing she was sound asleep, they confidently returned to their bedroom.
Keira Olsen intended to go to the guest room, but was held tight by Lewis Horton.
His eyes deeply gazing at her: “Keira, let’s be a real couple tonight.”
Keira Olsen’s pupils dilated, her heart starting to beat rapidly!
Both being adults, she of course understood what Lewis Horton meant…
But to start sharing a bed with him tonight?
Keira Olsen suppressed the shyness in her heart, coughed lightly, and then, turning her head slightly with a red face, said, “Okay.”
She entered Lewis Horton’s room a bit awkwardly.
As she entered, the door behind her was forcefully closed and the man immediately embraced her tightly.
Keira Olsen was startled.
Was the man already so impatient?
Just as she thought this, she sensed something was off.
The man was just holding her close, burying his head in the nape of her neck without any further action.
She breathed a sigh of relief and heard the man say with a laugh, “Keira, I am very happy today.”
Keira Olsen was also very happy.
She hadn’t expected Lewis Horton to be so decisive. She hadn’t even mentioned Madeleine Davis, yet he had already made a decision.
That was quite good…
Thinking this, Keira Olsen hugged his waist and felt his heartbeat, “I am very happy too.”
Had Lewis Horton confessed his feelings for her today?
That night, they didn’t make any substantial progress but just slept in each other’s arms.
Keira Olsen could feel the man’s restraint and self-control and couldn’t help but stifle a laugh.
She actually was not yet mentally prepared and felt that it was better to take things slowly.
…
Early the next morning.
Mr. Horton came to join Old Mrs. Horton for breakfast.
Hearing that Lewis Horton and Keira Olsen hadn’t yet gotten out of bed, Old Mrs. Horton immediately grinned broadly.
They had both gone out together last night and upon returning, they both entered Lewis Horton’s room, as Fiona had informed her early this morning.
She was truly delighted!
Mr. Horton couldn’t help but frown, “Elder Sister, with elders at home, isn’t it improper for your granddaughter-in-law to get up so late? Does she respect you ordinarily?”
He was concerned about Keira Olsen neglecting Old Mrs. Horton.
Old Mrs. Horton immediately replied, “Brother, your words are too much, haha. Young people need more sleep, they should sleep more! Besides, I’ve told you, my granddaughter-in-law is impressive. She’s filial, kind, and not someone who can be easily bullied. She usually protects Lewis too. I am one hundred percent satisfied with this granddaughter-in-law!”
Seeing Old Mrs. Horton say this, Mr. Horton was reassured, “It’s good that she’s filial. But there’s one thing I don’t like about your granddaughter-in-law.”
Old Mrs. Horton disapproved, “What’s not to like?”
“Her background isn’t very strong, I heard she’s just from a middle-class family in Oceanion?”
Mr. Horton sighed softly, “On the first branch of the family, that illegitimate daughter, though she flatters you, is now engaged with the Cobb family in Clance. If the Cobb family supports the first branch, it would put more pressure on Lewis’s side. It’s not that I hope Lewis’s wife comes from one of the top five families in Clance, but if she were from any top-tier family, it could really help Lewis. On this point alone, this marriage is at a disadvantage!”
Old Mrs. Horton knew Mr. Horton wasn’t mocking Keira Olsen, just expressing regret, yet she still scolded, “You shouldn’t say such things in front of your granddaughter-in-law. No one is perfect. Do you think your grandson is without flaws? My granddaughter-in-law is good in every way, which compensates for her less impressive background!”
Mr. Horton sighed again but didn’t take it to heart.
Marrying into a wealthy family is also a form of alliance.
If only Keira Olsen came from a higher background…
As they spoke, Keira Olsen and Lewis Horton came out of the bedroom after cleaning up.
Just then, Fiona walked in from outside with a box in her hand and gave it to Keira Olsen, “Ma’am, this was sent over early in the morning by Uncle Olsen…”
Keira Olsen looked at it and was immediately taken aback.
The logo on the box belonged to a luxury jewelry brand.
But… just yesterday she had told Handsome Uncle that pacifying the younger generation could involve giving jewelry, and today Uncle Olsen sent a box of jewelry?
Could this really be such a coincidence? Or maybe…
