How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire
Chapter 408 - Chapter 408 Chapter 407

Chapter 408: Chapter 407 Chapter 408: Chapter 407 Tom Davis’s voice thundered, leaving everyone at the banquet incredulous, staring wide-eyed.

Joseph Olsen’s daughter thought she must have heard wrong.

Victoria Olsen was utterly dumbfounded, feeling that the turn of events was very off.

How could this be?

She looked at Keera in astonishment. How could Lewis Horton possibly take an interest in such a discarded remnant of beauty? Just because she was the legitimate daughter, and herself the foster one?

She clenched her fists tightly, refusing to believe everything before her eyes.

After a moment of silence, the people around them instantly stirred into commotion again.

Those who had been surrounding her now rushed to Keira Olsen, their faces adorned with flattering, fawning smiles:

“Miss Keera, congratulations indeed!”

“Mr. Horton values you so much, he even came to your family recognition banquet to offer a betrothal, you really are receiving double happiness!”

“Congratulations, congratulations!”

“…”

Even her seven brothers suddenly showed looks of joy, rushing directly to Keira Olsen.

James Olsen crossed his arms: “Hmph, that Lewis Horton didn’t even come to offer the betrothal himself, no sincerity!”

Charles Olsen then said, “Exactly, if he ever treats you badly in the future, just say the word. All seven of us have got your back!”

Ellis Olsen then scolded the two: “You guys should say less.”

James Olsen stole a glance at Keira Olsen, and after struggling for a while, still swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue.

He wanted to persuade his little sister to break up with that gigolo, after all, her fiance was now Lewis Horton. Keeping that gigolo around would be a slap in Lewis Horton’s face, wouldn’t it?

However, now wasn’t the right time. Better to remind her in private.

Keira Olsen looked at her seven brothers, a smile forming on her face.

Although she didn’t need their affection, having family… wasn’t bad!

Victoria Olsen was pushed back by the crowd one step, trying to move forward, but unable to blend in, she could only stand hatefully at the back, as if forgotten!

She took a deep breath, suddenly stepped forward, and came up beside Keira Olsen, pretending to be concerned: “Sister, now that you’re engaged to Mr. Horton, what about your boyfriend?”

With that remark, everyone instantly fell silent.

Someone couldn’t resist asking, “What boyfriend?”

James Olsen immediately gave Victoria Olsen a look, telling her it wasn’t the right time for such talk.

Victoria Olsen, however, pretended not to see, and with a worried frown said, “The university student you brought to the last banquet! He was really handsome, more so than any star I’ve seen. But… shouldn’t you break up with him first, sister?”

James Olsen: !!

He immediately panicked, hastily looking towards Tom Davis, just about to explain something, when Joseph Olsen’s daughter shouted out, “Right, she has a boyfriend, Mr. Davis, tell Mr. Horton, don’t be deceived! After her divorce, she started keeping a gigolo. How can a woman of such easy virtue become Mrs. Horton?!”

James Olsen promptly interjected, “What nonsense are you talking about? That, that was just my sister’s driver! Yes, the driver! Definitely not any sort of male companion!”

Keira Olsen watched him spout such a ludicrous lie: “…”

Wasn’t this the same brother who days ago furiously barged into her home, demanding she break up with Lewis Horton?

And now, he could say such things on her behalf in public.

Although he was a bit annoying before, she had to admit, at this moment, he was kind of cute!

Joseph Olsen’s daughter then scoffed, “What driver? At the last banquet, she admitted in front of everyone that the gigolo was her boyfriend, Mr. Davis, don’t be fooled!”

Tom Davis’s face darkened upon hearing this.

Who were they calling a gigolo?!

Seeing his complexion was poor, Victoria Olsen felt certain about the situation.

Their marriage was definitely doomed!

After all, no man could accept his fiancee messing around outside, right?

But just as she thought this, she heard Tom Davis sigh and slowly speak up, “Mr. Horton is aware of this matter.”

Everyone: ?

Then they heard Tom Davis continue, “But he doesn’t mind, as long as Miss Olsen is willing to marry him.”

Everyone: ??????

Had they misheard just now?

Or had the world turned a fantasy?!

The wealthiest man of Oceanion, the first family, the Horton Family, which had settled in Clance for over two months and was slowly relocating their entire family to Clance…

That Mr. Horton, who took control of the Horton Family and was so fearsome and ruthless, was actually love-stricken?!

Would he stoop so low for Keera?

Unable to hold back, Joseph Olsen’s daughter blurted out, “Why, just because she is Uncle Olsen’s biological daughter? We’ve seen plenty of marriages between wealthy families, but we’ve never seen one so disgraceful!”

In these rich circles, everyone’s marriage was tied to business.

Many couples were just partners in appearance.

But even so, they would play their own parts, have presentable heirs, keep their lovers in the shadows, and at least not flaunt them to slap the other’s face.

Keera’s boyfriend was already public knowledge; how could someone as high and mighty as Lewis Horton not care?

Tom Davis tilted his chin up and then began to spout sheer nonsense with earnest, “Of course not, Mr. Horton has met Miss Keira Olsen and was so struck by her that he considered her a beauty from heaven, and he has sworn to marry no one but her. Even if Miss Olsen’s heart belongs to another, Mr. Horton wouldn’t mind sharing her with another man! Mr. Horton’s admiration for Miss Olsen is extreme, his love runs deep, as profound as the ocean, love…”

Keira Olsen: !!

Tom Davis was really full of drama!

She glared at him directly, prompting him to immediately stop his bootlicking behavior and summarize, “In short, Mr. Horton only acknowledges Miss Keira Olsen!”

Everyone: …

Everyone was astonished.

They couldn’t believe it and thought they must have approached the banquet in the wrong way tonight.

James Olsen, who took the words seriously, looked at Keera and couldn’t help but say, “My younger sister is indeed quite pretty, but she doesn’t have the power to bewitch a man like that, does she?”

Charles Olsen was also stunned, “If I were so love-stricken, Uncle would definitely break my legs!”

Only Ellis Olsen couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

That cunning Lewis Horton, his choice in secretaries really took the cake.

But these words added face for his sister, and he was quite pleased.

Even Uncle Olsen’s mouth twitched.

After a while, the crowd awkwardly and forcibly praised:

“Mr., Mr. Horton really is quite the romantic.”

“Miss, Miss Olsen is also very impressive…”

“Ha, haha, tonight we have truly witnessed a match made in heaven!”

“…”

Under such strained praise, Joseph Olsen’s daughter finally realized she had caused trouble and glanced at Victoria Olsen before quietly slipping out.

Just as she was about to sneak out of the banquet hall, a chilling voice suddenly rang out, “Where are you going?”
