How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire -
Chapter 245 - Chapter 245 Chapter 245
Chapter 245: Chapter 245 Chapter 245: Chapter 245 Lewis Horton’s gaze was fixed intently on that last sentence, the name and phone number.
“My name is Kiera Olsen…”
His eyes widened suddenly, recalling what Kiera Olsen had once said at the hospital, that she too had saved an older brother when she was a child…
How had he not thought of it before?
Perhaps the older brother she mentioned was himself!
In that moment, Lewis Horton suddenly felt like laughing, yet he couldn’t help but feel tears welling up in his eyes as if he had finally seen a way out of a desperate situation.
No need for a divorce now.
He and Kiera Olsen could finally be together!
He took out his phone, intending to dial Kiera Olsen’s number, but after opening her contact, he paused slightly.
He wanted to prepare a surprise for Kiera Olsen.
Although their relationship was acknowledged by both, he had never actually proposed to her…
Even the photo on the marriage certificate wasn’t of her.
So this afternoon at the courthouse, he still needed to go, but not to divorce, instead to change the marriage certificate.
He wanted to make it official, to register Kiera Olsen as his partner for life.
He exited Kiera Olsen’s contact screen and immediately called Tom Davis, “Prepare some things for me…”
After he got everything ready, Tom Davis couldn’t help but speak hesitantly, “Boss, this looks like a marriage proposal? Doesn’t seem like you are getting a divorce… Are you trying to leave Miss Olsen with a lasting memory even in divorce?”
Lewis Horton’s response was one word, “Scram.”
“Okay then.”
“Come back.”
Tom Davis was about to hang up but then quickly brought the phone back to his ear, “Boss, any other instructions?”
Lewis Horton’s expression turned cold, “There’s still one thing unresolved!”
…
In the hospital.
Madeleine Davis was lying on the hospital bed, her complexion pale and her eyes somewhat vacant.
Lewis Horton looked through the glass window of the ward door at her dejected expression and pushed the door open somewhat woodenly.
Madeleine Davis turned her head at the sound and saw Lewis instantly, trying to sit up immediately, “Lewis, I knew you wouldn’t abandon me!”
Since her body hadn’t recovered yet, she failed to sit up and fell back down, but her expression was still joyous.
Lewis Horton, watching her still self-entitled demeanor, his expression darkened, “Miss Davis, I’ll ask you one last time–about the abduction back then , did you really save me?”
Madeleine Davis blinked, then nodded blankly, “Lewis, what do you mean by that? Of course, I was the one who saved you back then!”
Lewis Horton sneered, “Madeleine Davis, I was going to give you a chance to repent, but you’ve given it up yourself. It was actually Kiera who saved me. Why did you pretend to be her!”
Madeleine Davis’s face turned cold, and she quickly shook her head, “That’s not it, Lewis. Did that woman tell you something? She’s the one who’s stopping you from being responsible towards me, right? It was you who said you’d marry me to take care of me, you can’t just dismiss my kindness in saving you back then!”
Lewis Horton smirked, “You’re still living in a fantasy. Let’s check again; I want to see how exactly you deceived me back then!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Tom Davis led a group of doctors into the room.
Madeleine Davis was stunned and tried to struggle, but the doctors held her down firmly.
Lewis Horton watched it all coldly.
Ever since Madeleine Davis had lost that momento, he had doubted her authenticity.
But afterwards, Madeleine Davis had not only detailed his interactions with Little Bun precisely, even the lie detector didn’t show any fluctuations.
That lie detector was the world’s top lie detection equipment which normally doesn’t make errors, unless the person tested had undergone secret agent training to ensure they could pass the lie detector test.
How could Madeleine Davis, a psychiatric patient, have possibly gone through such training?
Soon, the doctors finished their examination and stood up.
Lewis Horton looked over authoritatively.
The doctor, however, looked troubled and hesitated before speaking, “Mr. Horton, we just conducted multiple tests on Miss Davis, and re-examined her brainwaves… she… indeed wasn’t lying.”
Lewis Horton’s expression hardened as he grabbed his collar, “Are you saying that Madeleine Davis really is that person from back then?”
The doctor was startled and immediately replied, “No, that’s not what I meant. We were just discussing it, and I think Miss Davis… she didn’t deceive you, she deceived herself!”
Lewis Horton was taken aback, “What do you mean?”
The doctor sighed, “Miss Davis has been monitoring her mental state for many years, but actually, she was already mentally ill when she was a child. Over the years, the reason she always passed the lie detector test is because… she believed that she wasn’t lying.”
Lewis Horton’s expression faltered.
Tom Davis stepped forward and said, “Mr. Horton, I have just reviewed all of Madeleine Davis’s records from the past to the present. Back then, she was indeed kidnapped with you, but at that time, she was frequently abused by her parents and was already mentally disturbed.
“I think she quietly observed your interactions with Miss Olsen among a group of children, saw the mutual redemption between you and Miss Olsen, saw all that Miss Olsen did for you, and saw your promises to Miss Olsen.”
After being rescued, when she went back home and was abused by her parents again, she always felt that you would come to save her too.
Gradually, she assumed the identity of Miss Olsen, truly believing that she was the one who had saved you back then and really saw you as her only savior, which is why her treatment for so many years was ineffective.”
Hearing the results of Tom Davis’s investigation, Lewis Horton was slightly stunned.
The anger he initially felt suddenly seemed to have nowhere to vent.
He had thought that everything was Madeleine Davis’s deception, and that he was foolish for not recognizing it was a lie for five years.
But he hadn’t expected this scenario…
Yet now, everything seemed to make sense.
Lewis Horton’s expression cooled.
He remembered…
Among the kidnapped children back then, there seemed to be a dirty little child whose face was hidden under her hair, always secretly peeping at him and Little Bun…
Little Bun was different.
No matter how bad the environment was, every day when Little Bun woke up, she would wash her face clean…
Such different personalities, which was why he sensed something was wrong when he first found Madeleine Davis.
That’s why he used the lie detector.
Only at that time, he thought her mental abnormality was caused by her condition.
Now, however, he just wanted to slap himself, wondering how he could have mistaken someone else? If he hadn’t made the mistake, if he could have found Keira Olsen sooner…
What was Keira Olsen doing five years ago? She had left the Olsen Family, working part-time to support herself…
Thinking of her many part-time work documents, Lewis Horton suddenly felt a pain clutching at his chest and looked at Madeleine Davis coldly, “You heard it, the person who saved me is Keira, and the person I promised to take care of for a lifetime is also Keira!”
Madeleine Davis shook her head, her eyes wide with disbelief, “It can’t be like this, they are lying, they just want to tear you and me apart!”
^With that, she tried to rush forward to grab Lewis Horton.
Lewis Horton stepped back coldly, “Madeleine Davis, if you hadn’t hurt Keira, I would have still considered your pitiful situation and not cut off your treatment fee… but you went too far, take care of yourself from now on!”
Having said that, Lewis Horton decisively turned and strode away.
Madeleine Davis watched his retreating figure, struggling frantically, “Lewis, no, don’t leave! I am the little girl who saved you! It can’t be wrong…”
She hugged her head tightly, pulling at her hair, curling up tightly in the corner, “I am Little Bun, come and save me! Save me… ah, don’t come over, dad, mom, I was wrong… big brother, save me!”
When the truth was revealed, she broke down completely, the doctors rushed over to control her, and someone did an examination, looking at Tom Davis, “Mr. Davis, she’s completely lost her mind now.”
Tom Davis stared at her, finding her pitiful but pathetic, but ultimately, she brought this upon herself!
“Deserves her right!”
Tom Davis coldly instructed the doctors, “Handle it as you should, there’s no need to report her case to the Horton Group anymore.”
Leaving these words behind, Tom Davis walked away. Behind him was Madeleine Davis’s piercing scream of despair.
…
Elsewhere.
After Keira Olsen easily dismissed the reporters, she received another message. It was from the person last night: [Keira, I’ll be waiting for you at Fairy Groove Cafe at 11:30.]
Keira Olsen rushed over immediately.
She had just entered, found a seat, and suddenly, someone appeared in front of her.
Keira Olsen looked up, her pupils shrinking slightly, “It’s you?”
