How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire
Chapter 407 - Chapter 407 Chapter 406

Chapter 407: Chapter 406 Chapter 407: Chapter 406 People turned their heads in unison, just to see the engagement gifts from the Horton Family being brought in one by one.

A dozen bodyguards, each carrying a box.

What lay inside those boxes was now in front of everyone, whether it was jewelry worth a fortune, or real estate from shops in Clance that was hard to come by.

Every single engagement gift was the cause of much envy.

Even these wealthy nobles couldn’t help but marvel at the Horton Family’s generosity.

Everyone looked on enviously, then craned their necks one by one to see if they could catch a glimpse of what this mysterious Mr. Horton actually looked like.

Following the long line of engagement gifts was a man in a suit.

The man had a tall figure, a sunny and handsome face, and a smile on his face that was asking to be punched…

“Is this Mr. Horton? He looks very imposing!”

“His looks are quite good~”

“It just feels like he’s… not quite what the legends say…”

Hearing the conversations around her, Kiera couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her mouth.

The person who had arrived wasn’t Lewis Horton at all, but Tom Davis!

That man made such a grand entrance, yet the main man didn’t show his face?

She pouted her lips.

At this point, Tom had already approached Uncle Olsen, bowed respectfully, and started, “Uncle, our Mr. Horton has another very important matter to attend to and couldn’t make an appearance, so he specially sent me to deliver the engagement gifts from the Horton and Olsen families.”

Uncle Olsen glanced at Kiera Olsen.

Of course, he knew what that “very important” matter of Lewis Horton’s was–it was being Kiera Olsen’s driver!

He twitched the corner of his mouth and said nothing, only slowly spoke, “Hmm, Lewis Horton has a good heart.”

“To marry a daughter from the Olsen Family, of course, it takes some effort!”

Tom smiled ingratiatingly, then turned to look at Kiera and raised his eyebrows as a greeting.

If Lewis Horton could figure out Kiera’s identity, Tom, as his assistant, would certainly be able to tell…

Kiera gave him an eye roll in return.

Tom immediately laughed.

He was genuinely happy.

When Kiera died, Mr. Horton looked as if he was about to follow her!

Fortunately, the lady didn’t die! Mr. Horton also gained a second lease on life!

As he thought this, the people beside him came to realize that this unremarkable man was not Mr. Horton, but Mr. Horton’s assistant.

The engagement gifts were placed one by one to the side.

Everyone abandoned their meals and immediately went over to inspect them.

Someone also turned to Victoria Olsen, “Miss Olsen, come quickly and see your engagement gifts!”

Victoria’s face flushed, and then she stood up.

She felt that she had finally gained an edge.

After Keera had acknowledged her kin, the seven brothers had given her so many gifts, it seemed as if Victoria was losing favor in the Olsen Family!

But now, the engagement gifts from the Horton Family were more than all the gifts the seven brothers had given to Keera combined!

“Good heavens! There are even shares of the Horton Group in here–fifteen percent!”

“I’ve heard that the first and second branches of the Horton Group have quite the competition,” someone exclaimed with amazement. “Mr. Horton is actually giving 15% of his shares to Miss Olsen as a betrothal gift, now that’s true love!”

“Though it’s his second marriage, Mr. Horton really treats Miss Olsen well!”

Victoria Olsen’s eyes widened in shock when she heard about the 15% share gift. She absolutely hadn’t anticipated Lewis Horton’s determination to marry her to be this immense!

She had thought the marriage was off since there had been no response from the Horton side for so long!

She couldn’t help but smile.

Someone beside her chimed in:

“Miss Olsen, your betrothal gift is truly unrivaled in Clance!”

“Exactly, the Hortons are showing full sincerity. The Olsen Family will surely provide a generous dowry in return. When you think about it, Miss Olsen ends up benefiting the most from this union!”

…

While a group of people were offering their congratulations to Victoria Olsen, Joseph Olsen’s daughter looked over at Keera and sneered, “See? This is the scale of the Olsen family when marrying off a daughter! Keera, what did Howard give you when you got married, huh?”

After her taunting remark, a smug smile played at the corners of Victoria’s lips.

She quickly responded, “Don’t say that. Back then, Keera hadn’t been acknowledged by the family, so she definitely got the short end of the stick. Uncle Olsen, if Keera remarries Howard, or if she decides to marry someone else in the future, we definitely need to make up for her dowry…”

Her insincere words elicited a snort from Keera Olsen.

Uncle Olsen also raised an eyebrow.

Even Ellis Olsen noticed the underhanded meaning in the conversation.

James Olsen, being a straight shooter, took it literally and nodded in agreement, “Right, right, Uncle, we really should arrange some assets for Keera!”

Charles Olsen also nodded, “Sister, don’t remarry Howard. There are plenty of eligible bachelors in Clance. Even if we can’t find a top-tier wealthy family, we can find someone decent. When the time comes, we’ll add to your dowry!”

Keera Olsen: …

Victoria Olsen added insincerely, “Keera, why aren’t you saying anything? Are you upset? Otherwise, I could give you half of these betrothal gifts from the Horton family…”

At those words, Joseph Olsen’s daughter quickly retorted, “Miss Victoria, that’s the betrothal gift from the Hortons. How can you share it? You spoil her way too much!”

Tom Davis also frowned, “Exactly, what right do you have to split it in half?”

Victoria Olsen immediately explained, “No, my sister has just been acknowledged back into the family. I, as her older sister, want to give her a meeting gift…”

Upon hearing this, Tom Davis scoffed, “Then give something from your own possessions, giving away half of Miss Keera’s betrothal gifts, do you think that’s appropriate? Even if you’re passing a gift, this isn’t how it’s done.”

Victoria Olsen: ??

She was dumbfounded, “What do you mean… Miss Keera’s betrothal gifts?”

Joseph Olsen’s daughter was also stunned, pointing incredulously at the gifts, “Aren’t these the betrothal gifts from the Horton family to the Olsen family for an engagement? The unmarried daughter of the Olsen family is Victoria Olsen!”

Tom Davis was puzzled for a moment, then pointed at Keera Olsen and declared, “You’ve got it all wrong! The one from the Horton family here to propose is Miss Keera Olsen!”

With Keera’s acknowledgment back into the family, her surname was naturally added.

After the addition, she became Keera Olsen.

With these words from Tom Davis, everyone understood!

Victoria Olsen was flabbergasted, her voice becoming shrill, “What did you say?”

Joseph Olsen’s daughter stared in disbelief, “Mr. Horton’s assistant, do you even realize what you’re saying? Keera has been married before! She even has a daughter! Are you mistaken?”

Finally comprehending their point, Tom Davis glanced at Keera Olsen.

Only then did he realize why his boss had sent him to make such a grand betrothal gesture today–it was all to cement the position of his lady at the event!

He snorted and said, “Let me make this clear to everyone! Our Mr. Horton is also on his second marriage, and he and Miss Keera Olsen are truly a match made in heaven! We are here today because we know Miss Keera has been acknowledged back into the family, and we specifically came to offer the betrothal. The position of madam of the Horton family can only be filled by the blood daughter of Uncle Olsen! What right does an adopted daughter have to marry Mr. Horton?”
