How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire -
Chapter 294 - Chapter 294 Chapter 293
Chapter 294: Chapter 293 Chapter 294: Chapter 293 Mary Davis’s attitude toward him suddenly became bizarre, which irritated Ellis Olsen.
So although he was going to help Keera through this tough time, he had to say something as annoying just to make Mary retract her statement, “My matters do not concern Young Master Olsen.”
Ellis could tell that Mary had already softened her stance.
Thinking back, she had pleaded with him not to help Howard, just for Keera’s sake. Surely, for her best friend, she would lower her head again…
Just as he thought of this, sure enough, Mary opened her mouth, “I…”
At that moment, a cold voice came, “Our problems are none of your business.”
Ellis Olsen: ?
He turned his head slightly and saw Keera, who looked exactly like Keira Olsen, except for the lack of a tear mole at the corner of her eye.
For some reason, in the moment he looked at her, the iciness in her eyes felt exactly the same as Keira Olsen’s!
Regrettably, in a moment of panic, Keera’s gaze lost its fierceness and became ordinary, gentle, and soft. She seemed too scared to meet his gaze and had already looked away.
A strange fury rose in Ellis Olsen’s heart.
What was going on today, with everyone targeting him!
Especially in front of Mary, he didn’t want to be defied, and he scoffed, “Not my business? So are you planning to sell the villa? Or the company? Oh, your company is burdened with so much debt, probably no one would take it over, right? So, are you selling the villa? However, the real estate market isn’t great now, and your villa won’t sell quickly…”
Mary immediately responded, “You can’t sell the villa! Keera, you once said it was the only thing left to you by your foster parents. You can’t sell it!”
Ellis Olsen sneered, “If not selling, then where does she get the money? Without using my power, are you planning to sacrifice your appearance again to appease a few men, to sweet-talk your great uncle into helping you?”
Mary: !!
She wanted to sew Ellis Olsen’s mouth shut!
Even if she paid the money herself, using all her savings to help Keera, she wouldn’t ask this man for anything ever again.
With that thought, Mary grabbed Keere’s hand, “Young Master Olsen, are you full from overeating? Why do you love meddling in our affairs? I really thank you for saving us from Boss Dawson today, but we don’t need your help with anything else!”
With these words, she took Keera and left the place straight away!
Ellis Olsen: ?
Watching the two girls holding hands and leaving, he couldn’t understand what had just happened!
He turned back to his assistant, unable to hold back his question, “I came here with good intentions to save her; shouldn’t she be grateful to me? How could she talk to me like that?!”
Assistant: “…”
“Yesterday, when she was drugged, she didn’t have this attitude with me. I’m good-looking and slept with her; doesn’t she like me?”
What’s more, that was his first time!
Assistant: “…”
Ellis Olsen stroked his chin, then continued, “There must be something wrong! Could it be that she doesn’t like men?”
Thinking again about how close Keere and Mary Davis were when they left…
Ellis Olsen immediately shook his head; he mustn’t overthink it!
But it’s just tough talk from Mary Davis and Keere! The lawsuit is the day after tomorrow, and if they don’t withdraw it by tomorrow, they’ll really have to pay up!
Thinking of this, Ellis Olsen told his assistant, “Arrange for me to visit Davis Corporation tomorrow, to see Uncle Davis.”
He referred to this uncle, who was, of course, the current head of the Davis Corporation.
Ellis Olsen was the next head of the Olsen Family; Uncle Olsen had lately delegated his responsibilities to him, which meant that when he visited the Davis Family, the head of the family would naturally receive him.
…
After Kiera Olsen was pulled out of the hotel by Mary Davis, Mary sneezed.
Kiera immediately booked another room, went downstairs to buy her cold medicine, had her take a hot shower, and then she curled up under the covers.
Once her body temperature had stabilized, Kiera finally said, “Mary, how could you make such a sacrifice for me?”
Mary waved her hand dismissively, “Don’t get emotional, okay? It’s not all for you! My parents were locked up by my uncle, and also my grandmother… My uncle said that if I helped him, he would let my grandparents be buried together, which was my grandmother’s only wish.”
Kiera now understood.
She really hadn’t realized how dire Mary’s situation was…
Wasn’t Mary in a similar position to Jake Horton in the Horton Family?
After Lewis Horton became the family head, the first branch should have been discontinued, and Jake, being a descendant of the first branch, would not be of the direct lineage of the Horton Family anymore.
But if Jake hadn’t sabotaged himself later, he still held significant sway in the Horton Group–at least he could still decide on contracts worth millions…
So she naturally assumed that Mary had a say in the Davis Corporation.
She poured Mary a cup of cold remedy, “Drink this to stave off the cold.”
When she turned around, she saw Mary looking at her with a guilty expression, “Keera, I was impulsive today. I shouldn’t have offended Young Master Olsen in a fit of pride. I heard from Howard that you once helped Uncle Olsen. If you and Howard get divorced now and go to Ellis Olsen, he would intervene.”
After all, last time, she had paid a heavy price to keep Ellis Olsen from intervening.
When Kiera heard this, she handed the cold medicine to her, “I have a way, don’t worry about it.”
However, Mary thought she was just consoling herself, “Keera, Young Master Olsen probably hasn’t gone far yet, shall we go find him now? In the face of right and wrong, how can we still be angry with him! I was so foolish!”
Just now, her pride had prevented her from asking Ellis Olsen for help.
But now, she regretted it!
Twenty million!
Keera’s personality, never liking to owe anyone, would thus not use her money… They couldn’t really leave Keera and Amy homeless, could they?
Kiera, however, said, “What I said earlier wasn’t in the heat of the moment.”
Mary was startled, “What?”
Kiera grabbed her hand, “Tomorrow, I will accompany you to the Davis Corporation.”
Mary tensed her jaw, “You want to ask them to extend the deadline? Keera, the policies at Davis Corporation are strict. Since they’ve already filed the lawsuit, withdrawing requires a valid reason. It’s not that easy to resolve…”
“It’s not about asking,” Kiera firmly looked at her. “It’s about discussing a partnership!”
…
When Ellis Olsen returned home, he noticed the light was on in his uncle’s study.
He paused for a moment before proceeding.
Keera had come to her senses and was starting to strategize about the divorce, which meant the woman was not beyond help; since that was the case, he decided to tell his uncle to acknowledge his daughter!
