How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire -
Chapter 331 - Chapter 331 Chapter 330
Chapter 331: Chapter 330 Chapter 331: Chapter 330 Keira Olsen was truly frantic, afraid that even the slightest lash from the whip might graze Mary Davis.
As she helplessly watched Ken Davis raise the whip, about to strike, she could no longer hold back and strode forward to intervene. Just as she was about to speak, a voice rang out:
“Stop!”
It was Ellis Olsen!
Keira’s steps halted as she immediately turned to look at him.
Even Ken’s hand was trembling. He felt that if Ellis didn’t show up soon, he wouldn’t know how to end this!
He immediately dropped the whip in his hand and turned to Ellis, continuing to act, “Nephew Olsen, what are you doing? The Davis Family is enforcing family law; you wouldn’t happen to be trying to stop us, would you?”
Ellis understood the implication in his words and cleared his throat, “The child is mine.”
As soon as these words fell, a chorus of gasps rang out from around them!
Even Christina Olsen and Victoria Olsen, who had been enjoying the drama, were shocked and turned to look at Ellis:
“Big brother, what nonsense are you talking about? How can Mary’s child be yours?”
“Yeah, big brother, you can mess around with anything, but you can’t be sloppy about wearing a green hat.”
Ellis didn’t pay any attention to those two, instead, he turned to look at Mary.
Kneeling on the ground, Mary’s tragically beautiful face was filled with shock and joy. She looked earnestly at Ellis.
Was he finally willing to acknowledge the child?
For a moment, her eyes reddened, feeling that her sincere devotion had not been in vain.
Ken feigned surprise, “What? It’s yours? Mary, is this true? When did you and Nephew Olsen get together?”
Mary bit her lip, not speaking.
Ellis then spoke up, “Last time, at the matchmaking event, it was love at first sight. We just haven’t had the chance to tell Uncle yet…”
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
Ken immediately tossed the whip aside, stepped forward to help Mary to her feet, and then turned to Ellis, “You two are really something, giving me, an old man, such a scare! Hiding such good news. So, Nephew Olsen, when do you plan to get engaged?”
Mary tensed ever so slightly, looking at Ellis.
But she saw Ellis looking back at her with no trace of joy on his face, which made her heart sink.
What did he mean by this?
As she was contemplating, Ellis spoke again, “As soon as possible, I will go home and discuss it with my parents.”
Ken said, “Alright then, I’ll just wait for the good news at home!”
Leaving these words behind, Ken turned to Chad Davis, “What are you waiting for? Aren’t you going to put away the family law book to avoid more embarrassment?”
Chad Davis, who was scolded out of the blue, “…”
Ken looked at Mary deeply once more, then smiled, “Alright, I’ve shown my face here. In this kind of situation, it’s better suited for you young people to handle. I’ll take my leave now.”
With that, Ken left with Chad Davis.
After the two of them had gone, Mary wanted to say something to Ellis, but the people around had already come up, congratulating them one after another:
“General Xu, congratulations!”
“Director Davis, this really is a double blessing for you!”
“Congratulations, congratulations…”
“May you grow old together and always share one heart!”
“…”
Seeing the two surrounded by the crowd, Keira curled her lips slightly, feeling relief. She said to the man beside her, “What do you think, did Ellis come to believe that the child is his, or does he not?”
If he believed it, that would be too strange.
But if he didn’t believe it… then wouldn’t Mary be seen as a liar in his eyes? Why would he still stand up for her?
Could it be that…
Keira’s eyes lit up and she turned to Lewis Horton immediately, “You don’t think Ellis could actually like Mary…”
But she stopped when she saw the expression on Lewis Horton’s face.
Because she realized that Lewis was staring at the entrance. There, the departing figures of Ken Davis and Chad Davis could be seen.
He was probably thinking of his biological mother again, wasn’t he?
His real uncle was right in front of him, but he didn’t recognize him at all…
Even if they didn’t keep in contact, would it be so hard to look at photos? Clearly, they had never paid attention, which meant the Davis family truly did not care about their nephew, Lewis Horton!
Seeing him like this, Keira couldn’t help but feel a twinge of heartache.
Her focus shifted in an instant from Mary to Lewis Horton.
She grasped his hand. “It’s okay, I’m still by your side.”
The man seemed to come back to his senses, looked down, sighed silently, and tightened the hand she was holding. “Kiera, don’t ever leave me.”
“Okay.”
“Kiera, everyone else has someone to love them, but I only have you and Grandma. And Grandma’s health isn’t good… She’s recuperating in Oceanion, and now, I only have you.”
“I know, I got it.”
Kiera Olsen hugged him, feeling that something wasn’t quite right.
While she was pondering, the man’s hand firmly wrapped around her waist. “Kiera.”
Kiera Olsen immediately stopped her wild thoughts, “I’m here.”
…
The banquet ended with the good news that Mary Davis and Ellis Olsen were getting engaged.
After everyone had dispersed.
Mary Davis finally got the chance to speak with Ellis Olsen alone.
She followed Ellis Olsen into his car, as he intended to drive her home himself.
In the car.
Mary Davis still couldn’t believe it.
Was she really together with Ellis Olsen?
The fondness of her youth had turned into the happiness of the present.
While still immersed in joy, the man’s icy voice suddenly came through: “Find a time, and get the kid aborted.”
Mary Davis froze upon hearing this.
She looked incredulously at Ellis Olsen, “What…what did you say?”
Ellis Olsen, agitated, loosened his tie. “Mary Davis, what are you still pretending for? Isn’t this play you’re putting on with your great-uncle just to force my hand? Fine, I’ll accept you as a person, but that doesn’t mean I should be happy about becoming a father!”
Lewis Horton could see it, and so could Ellis Olsen.
Ken Davis was clearly putting on an act.
Mary Davis just felt a chill run from the top of her head to the soles of her feet, soaking her entire being in a heart-sinking cold. She looked at Ellis Olsen in astonishment, “You still don’t believe that this child is yours?”
Ellis Olsen immediately tugged at his tie again. “I told you I have oligospermia!”
Since finding out about his condition, he had seen several doctors, even tried traditional Chinese medicine, but nothing improved.
The doctors all advised him to relax and let nature take its course.
But they also warned him to prepare himself for a lifetime without children…that he could adopt.
So, how could he possibly have a child?!
Had Mary Davis created a medical miracle?
Shocked, Mary Davis stared at him, “If you don’t believe me, why did you step forward?!”
Why?
Ellis Olsen was stunned.
He didn’t know why, but he only knew that in his mind there was only one thought at that time, and that was not wanting to see Mary Davis get hurt…
…
Elsewhere.
Lewis Horton was driving Kiera Olsen back to the South Family.
On the road, Kiera Olsen was still cautiously observing the man’s expression to see if he was still upset, but the man continued to frown, looking sullen.
Just as Kiera Olsen was about to comfort him, her phone suddenly rang.
She picked it up reflexively for a glance, but to her surprise, the caller ID did not show on the screen!
Frowning, she answered the call, and an electronic voice came through: “Keera, with Mary Davis and Ellis Olsen getting engaged, you’ve finally completed the first task.”
Kiera Olsen’s heart leapt, her pupils suddenly constricted, wanting to ask who are you, but she calmly understood that Keera would not ask such a question.
She lowered her gaze, spoke softly, “I want to go back, is that possible?”
“Heh, you want to go home now? Is it because your birth mother Jodie South has been captured?”
Kiera Olsen immediately clenched her fingers. “How is she? I want to see her.”
“That’s not impossible.”
The person laughed: “I can give you directions to go home.”
