How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire -
Chapter 303 - Chapter 303 Chapter 302
Chapter 303: Chapter 302 Chapter 303: Chapter 302 Keira Olsen had never known that a hug could be so warm, making one feel secure inside.
At the moment she was embraced, she even felt as if her empty heart was being filled.
Women, who are always strong and independent, sometimes also need solace and companionship.
She rested her head on his shoulder.
The two quietly leaned on each other.
Lewis Horton’s deep and magnetic voice reached her ears, “Keira, is it you?”
There was uncertainty in his voice.
Keira sighed inwardly, about to confirm, when suddenly a noisy commotion came from the doorway.
The nanny she had hired was exclaiming, “What are you doing? This is the South Family’s home, how can you trespass?”
Then came Howard’s mother’s loud voice, “What South Family? Who are you? Where is Keera? By blocking us like this, could it be that she’s inside messing around with some man?”
Howard was also angrily rebuked, “Move aside! I am Keera’s husband, and I’m here to settle scores with her!”
How could a single nanny fend off these two ruffians?
Footsteps were heard getting closer, and Keira Olsen quickly pushed Lewis Horton away, pointing to a room on the first floor where the assistant had taken Amy to play.
Lewis Horton gazed deeper but did not move.
Keira immediately clasped her hands, making a pleading gesture.
The girl’s eyes were sharp; none of her earlier fragility was evident!
This was entirely Keira Olsen’s look!
Lewis Horton looked momentarily stunned.
Seeing he did not move, Keira immediately grabbed his arm and pushed him into a small bedroom on the first floor.
Just as the door closed, Howard and his mother had already marched in, radiating aggression.
As soon as they entered, Howard’s mother’s gaze fixed on her, “Keera, what’s this about a nanny outside? Where did you get the money to hire a nanny?”
Keira looked at her, “This doesn’t seem to concern you anymore, does it?”
Howard’s mother immediately became angry, “How does it not concern me? When you and Howard divorced, Howard left with nothing! Tell me, did you hide some money? Or did your parents leave you something?”
Hearing this, Keira scoffed, “Before the divorce, how much property I had should have been thoroughly investigated by Howard’s lawyers, right? What, are you regretting it now? Considering today is the first day after our divorce, I can compromise. Otherwise, all the house’s assets go to Howard, and I’ll leave with nothing but Amy?”
Her collaboration with Davis Corporation and Olsen Group had not been made public yet.
Hearing this, Howard’s mother immediately said, “Don’t get ahead of yourself! The 20 million debt is from your parent’s company, don’t think you can leave it to our Howard!”
She paused for a moment, then realized, “I know, you must have sold your dowry jewelry, right? Keera, you still have debts, the court is ruling tomorrow, save whatever money you have! And hiring a nanny, you could do the household work yourself, couldn’t you? The money for the nanny would be better spent on some health supplements for me!”
This past month, Keira had been completely obedient to her, and because it was inconvenient to take money from her own account to avoid detection, Mary Davis had given her tens of thousands to get by.
Keira used that money to buy various nutritional supplements for Howard’s mother, as well as many clothes.
Howard’s mother was practically being spoiled like the Empress Dowager by her!
Keira Olsen saw how brazen she was and responded indifferently, “Since we are divorced, you are no longer my mother-in-law. How I live my life is none of your concern anymore.”
“You!” Howard’s mother pointed a finger, “I am doing this for your own good. You really don’t appreciate kindness!”
Seeing that she wanted to say more, Keira Olsen interrupted her endless chatter, “What are you here for today?”
Howard spoke up, “You did that on purpose at the courthouse today, didn’t you? You caused us to lose so much face, and Cindy got a stomachache when she got home. I want you to go apologize to Cindy now!”
Keira Olsen looked at him as if he were a fool, finding the whole world surreal.
How had Keera ever been so blind to marry such an unreasonable man?
She lowered her eyes, “Howard, do you think we are still husband and wife? Why should I still listen to you?”
Howard was stunned.
Keira Olsen simply said, “After the divorce, we have no relation whatsoever.”
Howard suddenly stepped forward, grabbing her wrist, “Keera, what do you mean by this? Just divorced and so eager to sever ties with me–are you seeing another man now?”
These words made Keira Olsen scoff, “Howard, the person who has someone on the side is clearly you. I stayed home, tended to my husband and child, took care of your mother, and never overstepped boundaries!”
Howard was choked up.
Keira Olsen then looked towards Howard’s mother, “I consider myself a devoted daughter-in-law and a good wife. Why do you insist on Howard and me getting divorced?”
Howard’s mother sneered, “Taking care of your mother-in-law is something any daughter-in-law should do. Even if it wasn’t you, any woman Howard married would be nice to me. You think you deserve credit for that? Not being able to produce a son is your biggest failure!”
Keira Olsen’s lips curled, “Any daughter-in-law can take good care of her mother-in-law?”
Howard’s mother lifted her chin, “Of course, Cindy Lloyd will treat me even better than you! She cared for me warmly before, and she’ll take even better care of me in the future!”
“Really?”
Keira Olsen didn’t argue.
Yet Howard dragged her outside, “Enough talk, I command you to go apologize to Cindy now. Also, I want you to look after her until the baby is stable. Otherwise, I won’t let you off!”
Keira Olsen pushed him away forcefully, “Let go of me!”
From inside, they heard Amy’s crying, “Mommy…”
But then it seemed like someone had calmed her down.
Hearing this, Howard’s expression drastically changed, “There you go, Keera, you really are hiding someone! I knew there was a reason you were so eager to divorce! You must have found someone else!”
Howard’s mother also rushed over, “You shameless, vile woman, you must have found this lover during our marriage. Howard, get that door open now. I want to see what kind of scum would take a divorced woman with baggage!”
After she finished speaking, Howard’s mother grabbed Keira Olsen’s arm, “Howard, go open the door! Catch them and make that man pay us compensation, otherwise, this isn’t over today!”
Without waiting for his mother’s prompting, Howard charged towards the door, about to kick it open.
However, the door opened from the inside.
Immediately, a tall and erect man stepped out.
Upon seeing him, Howard and his mother were dumbfounded, “Mr. Horton? What are you doing here?!”
