How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire
Chapter 405 - Chapter 405 Chapter 404

Chapter 405: Chapter 404 Chapter 405: Chapter 404 Uncle Olsen directly looked at Keira Olsen, “What do you think about this matter?”

Keira Olsen knew that Uncle Olsen was asking her to give the public an explanation, she slowly said, “I was blind when I was young, but now I am cured.”

She scoffed, looked at the crowd, and said indifferently, “A hero doesn’t dwell on the past but looks to the future. Besides, there’s a saying in Crera, ‘A prodigal who returns is worth more than gold.’ If a prodigal can return, why can’t a woman?”

This statement left everyone momentarily stunned.

After giving it some thought, it indeed seemed to be true.

It seemed that Crera was always particularly forgiving towards boys, as if, so long as they recognized and corrected their mistakes, they would be praised.

Joseph Olsen’s daughter immediately angrily said, “A woman loses so much in marriage, do you think by saying a few words like this, everyone will respect you? Why don’t you ask, among those here, who would want to marry you?!”

At this, Uncle Olsen immediately looked around at the people present.

Most of those who came today were relatives of the Olsen Family.

The Olsen Family’s recognition banquet was not grand, it did not include invitations to the Five Great Families, primarily because it was arranged in haste, which was also why James Olsen felt it was too modest, thinking it was just to introduce everyone to their aunt.

But the Olsen Family had many relatives by marriage, and there were many eligible men present.

Hearing this, some people immediately bowed their heads, not wanting to marry a divorced woman with a child–too troublesome!

Meanwhile, some less fortunate families saw a glimmer of hope.

The direct daughter of the Olsen Family, with the love shown by Uncle Olsen and the gifts her brothers just gave Keira Olsen, they could live without worries!

Thus, someone couldn’t restrain themselves and was about to stand up.

But just then, they suddenly felt one, no, two, three, four, five, six, seven pairs of eyes on them; the man turned his head and saw the seven Olsen brothers looking ominously at him.

Although they didn’t speak, their message was clear.

Their direct sister from the Olsen Family, how could she marry someone of his stature!

The man was so frightened that he dared not move.

Those of lower status dared not act, and those of high status did not want to, so after Joseph Olsen’s daughter finished speaking, there actually wasn’t a single person who came forward.

James Olsen, seeing this situation, became anxious and immediately gestured with his eyes to his close brothers.

Although he didn’t understand why his uncle had allowed this woman to say so many demeaning things about his cousin here, his cousin could not be looked down upon!

But his close brothers had their backs to him and could not catch his signals.

James Olsen: “…”

He was desperate!

He immediately looked at Charles Olsen, inquiring with his eyes: Where are your friends? Quick, have one stand up for your sister!

Charles Olsen just waved his phone, returning a look: Sent WhatsApp messages, not a single one responded! Damn! These plastic brothers!

James Olsen: “…”

At this moment, he wished he had the ability to disguise himself, to transform into someone else and stand up!

The rest of the brothers were just as anxious, except for Ellis, who sat there calmly, which really irritated James Olsen!

What was the eldest thinking? How could he be so indifferent to his dear cousin?

He couldn’t help but complain, “Big brother, why aren’t you worried?”

Ellis picked up the wine in front of him and took another gulp, “Worry about what? Hasn’t the dowry arrived yet?”

The dowry has arrived, and everyone will know who the daughter of the Olsen Family that married into the Horton Family is!

Uncle Olsen had his reasons for letting Joseph Olsen’s daughter insult her cousin here; it was not without aim.

Keera’s past, indeed, is quite scandalous if spoken aloud: being lovesick, having a child, and nearly getting swindled out of her inheritance. People in their circle wouldn’t pity her; instead, they’d only see her as foolish.

Society these days is very restless.

So, even though she was given the status of the legitimate Olsen daughter, she wouldn’t command respect from anyone later on.

Thus, if she wanted to establish herself in their circle, they must speak out and fiercely put them in their place!

Joseph Olsen’s daughter, having waited until now and seeing no one come forward, blurted out, “See? No one of decent birth would care for someone like her, a damaged flower! But Keera, if you do want to marry, there is someone quite suitable!”

With that, she looked towards Victoria Olsen.

Victoria immediately lowered her gaze, avoiding her eyes.

But she took out her phone and sent a message. Soon, footsteps were heard at the entrance.

Then, a man and an elderly woman appeared.

It was Keera’s ex-husband Howard and her former mother-in-law!

Victoria’s eyes sparkled slightly upon seeing these two.

This was the surprise she had arranged for Keera, meant to savagely humiliate her at the adoption feast!

Howard and Howard’s mother, led inside, wore flattering smiles, especially Howard’s mother, who had never seen such a grand feast and was utterly dazzled.

These days, they were actually living poorly.

Cindy Lloyd, before Howard’s divorce, would sweetly call her “Mom” and kept her happy, but Howard hadn’t found a job since the divorce, and her attitude changed abruptly.

Every day, she quarreled with Howard’s mother, causing endless chaos at home!

Howard did nothing about it, only spending his days drinking and smoking.

Just a few days ago, Cindy couldn’t stand them any longer and directly threatened to throw them out.

Howard’s mother was furious, constantly reminiscing about the days when she lived with Keera.

Back then, Keera managed all household chores and looked after the child from dawn till dusk without ever bothering her, and the meals were always delicious…

Compared to those days, her current life was miserable!

Howard’s mother sighed deeply, and seeing the food on the banquet table, she couldn’t help but swallow her saliva.

It was helpless.

Cindy didn’t give them money, and the daily meals she prepared at home were too awful to even fill their stomachs…

During this time, she had also tried to visit the South Family villa but was stopped by the security guard and wasn’t allowed in…

Howard’s mother swallowed her saliva again, suppressing the urge to rush over and grab the food; instead, she walked with Howard towards the main table.

Then, Howard’s mother saw Kiera Olsen; her eyes lit up immediately, and she rushed forward, trying to grab her arm, “My daughter-in-law, I’ve finally found you! That Cindy Lloyd is a wretch; I was wrong, I apologize, please take your mom back home!”

Kiera Olsen watched her coldly, snorted, and subconsciously glanced at Victoria Olsen.

Victoria’s guilty eyes flickered for a moment.

These actions were noticed by Uncle Olsen, who immediately frowned and sighed inwardly.

This adopted daughter, he feared, could no longer stay…
