How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire
Chapter 258 - Chapter 258 Chapter 258

Chapter 258: Chapter 258 Chapter 258: Chapter 258 Mrs. Olsen’s speech was frantic and incoherent as she pointed at her phone and burst into tears.

Taylor Olsen was slightly taken aback and set down his phone, patting her back, “The person in this video is completely unrecognizable, it’s not necessarily them, don’t get worked up, I’ll go investigate for you!”

“Good, hurry up…”

Mrs. Olsen pushed Taylor Olsen, urging him to leave.

Taylor Olsen furrowed his brow and stepped out the door.

Mrs. Olsen thought it over and felt that given Taylor Olsen’s capabilities, it might not be possible to find out who the girl was, especially since she was wearing a duckbill hat and a mask.

Her daughter had clearly returned but did not acknowledge her… It must be because Kiera knew that the killer was nearby!

Mrs. Olsen clenched her fists and reached for her phone on the nightstand.

She opened WhatsApp, where she had just added Uncle Olsen two days ago.

She had been low-key over the years, without much self-protection in Oceanion, so even though she never wanted to see Uncle Olsen again, she still knew what was urgent and important.

She sent a direct message to Uncle Olsen, “Can you help me with something?”

Uncle Olsen replied instantly, “But for your ask, there is no nay, speak.”

Looking at those eight characters, Jodie South’s expression hesitated for a moment.

She pursed her lips, feeling a complex mix of emotions she could not quite pin down.

All that had passed was already buried in her heart, and she never wanted to have anything to do with him again in her life, but for her daughter…

Jodie South took a deep breath and slowly began to type, “I have information on my daughter here, I would like to ask your help…”

While she was typing, the door to the hospital room was suddenly opened.

Jodie South was slightly startled and looked up, only to see Taylor Olsen entering.

Jodie South casually asked, “Taylor, did you find out anything?”

Taylor Olsen walked over to her, his brow furrowed, “I’ve already sent someone to investigate, Shirley, don’t be anxious…”

As he spoke, he looked at Jodie South’s phone, “Who are you messaging?”

Jodie South had nothing to hide from Taylor Olsen regarding her interaction with Uncle Olsen, so she handed the phone to him, “I was thinking that our combined influence might not be enough, so I decided to ask Uncle Olsen for help since it concerns Kiera’s life.”

She let Taylor Olsen glance at the chat screen before taking back the phone to continue typing, “With his involvement, we should be able to find Kiera more quickly…”

As she was speaking, her hand suddenly became empty.

Jodie South looked up in surprise to see Taylor Olsen had snatched her phone away, a trace of sorrow in his eyes, “Shirley, don’t you trust me?”

Jodie South paused for a moment, sensing that Taylor Olsen’s mood was off.

After a moment of silence, she finally spoke, “Taylor, that’s not what I meant. Someone wants to kill Kiera, and I want to protect her, which is why I asked Uncle Olsen for help…”

“And then?” Taylor Olsen sat in front of her hospital bed, his eyes filled with sadness, “Uncle Olsen finds Kiera, sees her face so much like his mother’s, and immediately understands that Kiera is the child of you and him. Given his personality, he will take you and the child away immediately… I’m not strong enough, Shirley, I can’t compete with him for you…”

Jodie South was silent for a moment, then gave a bitter smile. “I won’t go with him,” she said.

“But he’s domineering, and once he finds out about Kiera, he will definitely snatch you away!”

Taylor Olsen hesitantly spoke up.

Jodie South could sense his insecurity, so she took his hand. “I’m older now, faded and not the young person I once was. The foolish things from my younger days won’t continue to now, Taylor, you’re overthinking this…”

“I’m not!”

Taylor Olsen stood up. “Shirley, you’re not old, in my eyes, you’ve always been so beautiful, just like a Fairy out of reach, I can’t even touch you! The way Uncle Olsen looked at you that day, it was the same. He’s unmarried after all these years, clearly he still has you in his heart!”

Jodie South furrowed her brows, clenching her fists.

Seeing her like this, Taylor Olsen couldn’t help but his eyes turned red. “Shirley, I want to ask you something.”

Jodie South gently said, “Go ahead.”

“We’ve been together for twenty-two years, Shirley. Even though you’ve never let me touch you, in my heart, you are my wife, and I love you more than myself. What about you? Shirley, have you ever loved me?”

Jodie South was taken aback.

Continuing to stare at her, Taylor Olsen said, “When we got together, you said it was just to give a child a surname, and I said I wouldn’t hope for any emotional response from you, that just being with you was enough to make me happy… but human hearts are greedy. Shirley, tell me, all these years, have you even a little bit loved me?”

Jodie South sighed. “Taylor, we are of a certain age now, why should we hang love on our lips?”

“But I love you! For so many years, my love for you has never diminished one bit! I always thought it was fine to continue this way, even if my daughter got locked away, I didn’t care, as long as you were by my side…”

Taylor Olsen ran his hands through his hair, agitatedly pacing around the room twice. “But everything changed when Uncle Olsen showed up! Shirley, you changed! Ever since you woke up that last time, you’ve often zoned out looking out the window, you look at your phone, wanting to call Uncle Olsen! Even… your gaze towards him is different. When you saw him, that fleeting glance betrayed so much…”

Suddenly, Taylor Olsen charged up to Jodie South. “The situation was unexpected, and when you looked at him, there wasn’t a trace of hatred in your eyes, such intense longing, as if you were about to be with him at any moment!!”

Taylor Olsen’s eyes reddened, his whole body shaking nervously. “Now that you’ve faced trouble, the first you think of is him, do you still intend to tell him, that she is also his daughter? Shirley, I’ve protected you for 22 years, four months, and three days, all these nights and days, can’t they warm your heart?! Have you truly, even for a moment, loved me?”

He looked very sad, like someone who had been abandoned.

Jodie South was stunned; her jaw clenched tight, yet she was not moved by his words.

Her expression gradually grew colder. “Taylor, back then I had agreed to meet Kiera with a stranger, I didn’t know it was Uncle Olsen at all, how did you know how I looked when I saw Uncle Olsen?”

Taylor Olsen choked.

But it suddenly dawned on Jodie South. “Have you been spying on me?”

She remembered when she had met Uncle Olsen, they were supposed to introduce themselves to each other, but the phone call that interrupted and claimed her abduction came too timely…

Jodie South’s pupils shrank, she looked at him incredulously. “Could it be you…?”

Before she could finish, Taylor Olsen lunged forward, covering Mrs. Olsen’s mouth with his hand. “Shirley, don’t say it!”

Jodie South, however, looked at him in astonishment, struggling to push Taylor Olsen away, but the man in front of her wouldn’t budge. She bit down hard on his finger, forcing Taylor Olsen to finally let go.

Taylor Olsen gasped in pain, looking at the bite mark and blood on the back of his hand. He was about to say something when he heard Jodie South say with certainty:

“It was you, you’re the one who killed Kiera!”
