How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire -
Chapter 493 - Chapter 493 Chapter 492
Chapter 493: Chapter 492 Chapter 493: Chapter 492 Old Mrs. Horton froze in place as soon as she saw Keira Olsen, the whole person suddenly stopped, stunned on the spot.
She looked at Keira Olsen in astonishment, then rubbed her eyes, and looked at the girl in front of her again, feeling that she must have seen wrongly, otherwise how could she have seen her granddaughter-in-law?!
Time seemed to stand still at this moment. Old Mrs. Horton suddenly trembled with both hands, pointing at her, her eyes reddened, her lips quivering, and she was speechless for a while.
Even Fiona, standing by Old Mrs. Horton’s side, was extremely surprised, staring intently at Keira Olsen.
The reactions of the two were too extreme, causing the surrounding audience to notice that something was off. They immediately looked at them and began discussing in low voices:
“What’s wrong with Old Mrs. Horton?”
“What else could it be? She must be angered, considering Miss Olsen maintaining a gigolo outside has been widely circulated!”
“Indeed, Miss Olsen is at fault, causing such an ugly scene, really losing face for the Horton family!”
“Miss Olsen is just relying on her power and influence. Even if the Horton family knows, they dare not do anything to her…”
“True, after all, the Olsen Family is one of the Five Great Families, and look, it’s been so long since Miss Olsen entered, and she hasn’t even greeted the elders…”
“It’s understandable for the Horton family to be so angry, being dishonored like that…”
“From the moment she entered, she didn’t even glance at the Horton family elders. I really don’t understand, does she want to keep this engagement or not? The Horton family has no respect, yet they still enter, which means the Olsen Family still wants this marriage. Since they’re here, why not take the initiative and show some humility?”
“Look how angry Old Mrs. Horton is, her lips are trembling. I heard her health isn’t great; hope she doesn’t get sick from this…”
“…”
Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, Uncle Olsen stepped forward and greeted Old Mrs. Horton: “Hello, aunt.”
By generation, Uncle Olsen was considered a junior to Old Mrs. Horton.
Old Mrs. Horton seemed not to have heard him and continued staring intently at Keira Olsen. Her eyes gradually reddened, brimming with tears.
Seeing this, Uncle Olsen had a satisfied look on his face.
Seeing Old Mrs. Horton’s emotional reaction, she must be pleased with her daughter-in-law.
After all, in Oceanion, whether it was Lewis Horton or Old Mrs. Horton, they had always been protective of their daughter…
Initially, at the entrance, he was somewhat displeased when people from the first branch of the family deliberately slighted them, feeling that Lewis Horton couldn’t even handle such a minor household matter, and his daughter had to marry into such a situation…
But now, his heart softened.
Having such an elder in the family was actually a good thing.
What his daughter lacked the most since childhood was familial affection…
Thinking this, Uncle Olsen turned to Mr. Olsen, who couldn’t help but whisper, “Younger brother, isn’t Old Mrs. Horton being a bit too much? You greeted her, and she didn’t even respond…”
James Olsen also frowned: “Yes, Grandma, why aren’t you speaking? My uncle greeted you! Aren’t you Horton folks being too oppressive…”
Uncle Olsen immediately looked at James Olsen: “Don’t be rude! Is this how the Olsen family teaches you to treat your elders?”
James Olsen immediately pursed his lips, quite dissatisfied.
He just felt that they were being wronged!
Beside him, Peter Olsen also frowned and directly said, “Uncle, haven’t you seen clearly? The Hortons have never intended to treat this marriage properly. After all, it was my younger sister who first did wrong. I think we might as well just call off this marriage!”
As soon as he said this, Victoria Olsen walked over, standing next to Old Mrs. Horton, and said directly, “Peter is right, uncle. Since everyone is displeased, why not just peacefully dissolve the engagement? I think the Horton side won’t pursue any responsibilities, right? Grandma Horton?”
Victoria Olsen smiled sweetly at Old Mrs. Horton.
Fiona had already come to her senses and nudged Old Mrs. Horton’s arm. Old Mrs. Horton then came to her senses and immediately spoke sternly, “No!”
Victoria Olsen and the Olsens were slightly taken aback.
Then Victoria Olsen spoke again, “Grandma Horton, do you want the Olsens to apologize? That’s a bit too much… My sister is indeed misbehaving outside. I apologize on her behalf. The Hortons and Olsens had long agreed on the marriage, so let’s not make it too unpleasant. Besides, the dowry has been given, and if we take it back, it would be too disgraceful…”
Old Mrs. Horton immediately replied, “Who said anything about calling off the engagement? The Horton family won’t call off the engagement!”
Victoria Olsen’s eyes instantly lit up: “Exactly, the two families have long settled on the marriage, calling it off is out of the question. Since we’re not calling it off, the Olsen family doesn’t lack other suitable girls…”
Someone nearby heard this and immediately spoke up: “Exactly, Miss Victoria Olsen is also a miss from the Olsen family. She’s never been married either; this marriage can be changed to her instead, allowing the marriage alliance between the Horton and Olsen families to continue…”
Victoria Olsen immediately responded coyly, “How can you say that?”
Then she looked at Uncle Olsen: “Uncle, the Olsens have raised me to this age, if needed, I would not refuse to do this…”
Uncle Olsen: …
Before he could speak, Old Mrs. Horton suddenly pushed through the crowd and rushed to Keira Olsen.
