How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire
Chapter 288 - Chapter 288 Chapter 287

Chapter 288: Chapter 287 Chapter 288: Chapter 287 Ellis Olsen approached Howard.

Howard immediately bowed and smiled ingratiatingly, “Young Master Olsen, I went to the Olsen Family to find Uncle Olsen and couldn’t see him, so I came to try my luck with you…”

Ellis’s eyes narrowed slightly, “What do you want from me?”

“It’s like this, last time in Oceanion, I got along with Uncle Olsen quite well, and later he asked my wife, Keera, to help visit Mrs. Olsen. So, the relationship between our couple and Uncle Olsen is very good. I have a favor to ask Uncle Olsen, I wonder if you could pass on a message for me?”

He had sent a message to Uncle Olsen, only to discover he had already been blocked on WhatsApp.

Ellis squinted his eyes, “What’s the message?”

Howard smiled and said, “We are encountering a small problem with our cooperation with Davis Corporation. Could you, or maybe Uncle Olsen intervene, giving us a little greeting? Ask the Davis Family to give us an extension, just another month, no, half a month, and I’m certain I can submit the proposal!”

Ellis looked down, laughing coldly, “Alright, I’ll deliver your message.”

With that, Ellis got into his car.

Howard and Cindy Lloyd dared not stop him any longer as Ellis’s car sped away.

After Ellis left, Cindy Lloyd asked, “Will this work?”

Howard responded directly, “Last time Keera did Uncle Olsen a big favor, and afterward, he said we could come to him if we needed anything. It should be no problem for such a trivial matter.”

The two of them talked and left the place.

It was after they departed that Mary Davis emerged from a corner.

She had just descended to the parking lot and hadn’t found her own car when she saw Howard and Cindy Lloyd stopping Ellis. She then hid nearby and eavesdropped on their conversation.

If Ellis really conveyed the message to Uncle Olsen, wouldn’t Keera’s plan be ruined?

Thinking of this, Mary Davis hastily took out her phone, found Ellis on WhatsApp, and hesitated for a moment before making a direct call to him.

The sky had already darkened.

At this moment, Ellis was leaning back in his chair, resting with his eyes closed.

His mind was filled with the memory of Mary Davis’s delicate skin… so unforgettable!

However, remembering her words “not the first time,” Ellis couldn’t help but scowl.

It was his first time…

In that case, didn’t it mean he was at a loss?!

He loosened his tie, feeling irritated again.

Just then, his phone suddenly rang.

He glanced at it and saw it was a message from Mary Davis.

He couldn’t remember when exactly he added Mary Davis on WhatsApp, but she had been mingling in their circles since she was young.

Back then, Mary was still the granddaughter of the head of the Davis Family, so people would give her some respect.

But after Mary’s grandfather passed away, and as the first branch of the family took over Davis Corporation, leaving her family’s second branch in decline, Mary became more and more invisible in the social circle…

Ellis thought this over and answered the call.

He spoke, “What is it?”

Mary’s voice came through, “Did you just say that as long as my requests aren’t excessive, you’ll agree to them?”

Mockery spread across Ellis’s face, “So, you were playing hard to get just now? Miss Davis, there’s really no need to be so manipulative with me!”

Mary choked up.

Ellis simply said, “Go on.”

He thought Mary would ask him to marry her, take responsibility for her, or take the chance to secure some benefits for her family’s branch within Davis Corporation, at least to help stabilize her position. But unexpectedly, he heard Mary Davis say:

“Could you not help Howard and Keera?”

Ellis Olsen instantly furrowed his brows.

He scoffed, “The thing you’re asking me to do, is that it?”

“Yes.”

“Impossible.”

Having said these three ice-cold words, Ellis Olsen immediately hung up the phone.

He was extremely angry.

The assistant beside him noticed and couldn’t help but speak up, “Young Master Olsen, Miss Davis didn’t know of Miss Keera’s identity either…”

“So what if she’s not Uncle’s daughter? Can you do this to just a regular friend?!”

Ellis Olsen snapped back, then scoffed again, “If she really can’t stand the sight of someone like Keera, then she should stay away. It was Mary Davis who approached her, and what for? Just to make her look bad?! Is that what their friendship of over a decade was? All fake?! If Uncle found out about Keera’s identity and Mary Davis’s actions, I’m afraid Mary Davis will no longer be welcome in Oceanion!”

Upon hearing this, the assistant fell silent for a moment before asking tentatively, “Young Master Olsen, are we still not telling Uncle the truth about the DNA test?”

This question caused Ellis Olsen to frown again.

The results of the DNA test had come out a while ago.

He was so convinced by what Uncle had said, he had even thought that Kiera was his father’s illegitimate daughter, which led to him not showing his father any good graces at home for those two days.

He even got a good scolding from his father.

But when the results came back, it turned out Keera was Uncle’s daughter!

At that moment, he was stunned.

He had planned to tell Uncle immediately, but after hearing the assistant’s report on Keera’s life, Ellis Olsen began to hesitate.

Uncle had always been a proud man.

For many years, not a single woman had caught his eye, and he once asked, “Why don’t you find someone, so that you have a companion?”

But Uncle’s answer was, “Kinship isn’t something to settle for; better to have none than a poor choice.”

If Uncle knew that his daughter was living such a miserable life, being toyed with by a phoenix man from some small place, Uncle might just explode from anger.

His life, illustrious and revered, would be ruined by his daughter Keera!

That’s why Ellis Olsen had been putting off seeing Uncle and hadn’t reported the matter.

Moreover, Uncle was still out there looking for Mrs. Olsen and Jodie South’s whereabouts, so since that day, they had not met.

Ellis Olsen sighed, “Let’s not talk about this for now; I’m afraid Uncle might have a serious fit.”

The assistant inquired further, “Then about this matter… do we intervene?”

Ellis Olsen clenched his jaw.

Truthfully, he felt like letting Howard dump Keera would be a good thing, it might even cure his cousin of her love-sickness.

Yet, he also felt it was his cousin’s own choice.

From a young age, the Olsen Family ethos they were taught was to act according to their own wishes, and the elders never did anything just because they felt “I’m being good to you.”

Instead, they would ask “What do you want?” and do just that.

So, if Keera truly loved Howard that deeply, Ellis Olsen’s choice would be to press Howard down, making him never dare to divorce, for the Olsen family could protect her for a lifetime!

Just as he thought this, his WhatsApp notification chimed again, still Mary Davis.

Ellis Olsen had made his choice, his tone turning a few degrees colder, “Miss Davis, are you doing this just to spite and retaliate against your friend Keera?”

Mary Davis hurriedly said, “No, I just want her to get a divorce.”

Ellis Olsen sneered, “You want her to get a divorce, but does she want it herself? Do you realize how annoying these forced ideas can be to others?”

This remark infuriated Mary Davis, “How do you know she doesn’t want to?!”
