My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

123 Lewis Arrives

Outside the courtyard.

Over half a dozen security guards surrounded Keira, closing in step by step.

Seeing this, Jake found it unbearable, so he shouted,

“Keira, just surrender and leave the Hortons. You won't have to suffer! Otherwise, this is my home. You're

intruding, and if we kill you, we'll bear no legal responsibility!”

Isla, supported by him, bit her lip upon hearing this, a flash of ruthlessness sparking in her eyes.

Even at a tlike this, Jake was still concerned about Keira's safety.

That Keira was simply a disaster!

No matter what, she had to be driven out today.

Thinking this, Isla also feigned concern. “Keira, you should go. Don’t worry, I'll arrange a job for your husband in

the Horton family. If you really have nowhere to go, you can also return to the Olsen family...”

Keira turned to look at her, a scornful smile on her lips. “You can’t even toleratehere in the Horton's.

Would you really be at ease if | actually went back to the Olsens?”

Isla’s gaze flickered. Of course, she couldn't bear it!

But it was still better than having Keira stay here, clinging to Jake, and it would be always on her mind!

Isla hung her head. “What's there to worry about? If you could go back and take care of Mom and Dad, I'd be

happy...

“Hypocrite.”

Keira uttered that word coldly.

Isla’s eyes reddened, and she was still pretending. “Keira, please go. If you stay here, one minute you'r seducing

Mr. Horton, the next you're messing with Jake. You're going to cause discord between Lewis an Jake!”

Keira scoffed. “Stop trying to put Jake on a pedestal. If | could seduce Lewis, how could | possibly settle for Jake?”

Jake's face stiffened.

Isla also twitched at the corner of her mouth.

Melissa said angrily, “How is my son any worse than

Lewis? In terms of looks...”

She paused for a moment.

While Jake was indeed a sunny, handsboy,

compared to Lewis's exquisitely handsface, he really did fall somewhat short.

She quickly changed the subject, “In terms of knowledge...

No sooner had these words cout than she paused

again.

Jake being admitted to the top-tier university in Oceanion was indeed impressive, but over the yea Lewis hadn't

been an ordinary playboy abroad. He completed graduate studies at Stanford University which was

incomparable.

Melissa swallowed, steeling herself to continue. “...is hardly much less than his younger uncle. My son is st

young, six years younger than his uncle! Besides, Jake is much more obedient and even-tempered than Lewis.

He's easier to control! You'll never be more to

might just end up being promoted to a wife! As if nobody knows what little schemes you have in your

heart!”

Hearing this, Isla clenched her fists.

Melissa’s words had struck a chord; that was exactly

why she had targeted Keira as soon as she entered the Horton household!

Jake was easily swayed; Isla could deceive him, and so

could Keira!

Moreover, Jake genuinely liked Keira.

The way he looked at Keira was filled with barely concealed possessiveness.

Therefore, she had to drive Keira out today, lest stay and bectangled with Jake in the future

Keira hadn't expected Melissa to cup with so many wild ideas and laughed scornfully. “It’s only y who thinks

Jake is a treasure. In my eyes, trash shou stay in the trash can! Just don’t get divorced and go causing trouble for

others. Isla, Jake, | wish you a harmonious union. Stay trapped forever!”

Furious and humiliated, Jake shouted, “Keira! Is that really what you think of me?!”

His whole body trembled with rage.

The four years of care and pursuit he gave her, were they really so worthless in her eyes?

Isla also clenched her fists. “Keira, don’t talk big here. If you really had let go of Jake, how could you have gotten

entangled with Uncle Lewis? You deceived Great-grandma and moved into the Horton home. Wasn't it just to

meet with Jake?”

Hearing this, Jake felt the oppression in his chest ease a bit.

Melissa scoffed. “She's just being stubborn, that’s all. Does she really think she’s Mrs. Lewis? You ar but his

mistress! And you dare to look down o son... In all of Oceanion, who can compare to

scores? Most of them just went abroad to get a degree.

That was all.

And the Horton family was the number one wealthy family in Oceanion...

That was also why Isla insisted on competing with

Keira for Jake!

After Melissa said these things, she looked at Isla. “Daughter-in-law, why bother with so much nonsense with

her? | think she just needs a good beating! Security, teach her a lesson for me. Let her understand the price of

belittling my son!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding security personnel immediately surged forward!

Jake's brows knitted together, and he couldn't h start to caution them. “Don’t be too harsh with h

Before he could finish speaking, his arm was gripp by Isla.

Isla sighed. “Keira has always been very stubborn an never willing to give in. Let her suffer a bit, so she won't

disrespect you again in the future.”

Hearing this, Jake paused, but he said no more.

Elsewhere.

Lewis was in a meeting at Horton Group when he received a call from the old Mrs. Horton and

immediately stood up.

He instructed Tom. “Get the car ready! Let's go home

now!”

“Yes,” Tom followed him in panic, and they both immediately exited, leaving a group of senior executives in the

room looking at each other in bewilderment.

“Did something happen to old Mrs. Horton?”

“Wasn't it said that the old lady’s condition was stable?”

“I've heard a bit of gossip...”

“What? Tell us quickly!”

“I've heard that Mrs. Horton might have returned to the country. Mr. Horton always kept Mrs. Horton's

information confidential, which shows how much he values her. Could it be that something has happened t

Mrs. Horton?”

None of the speculations reached Lewis's ears.

He hurried to the underground parking lot and headed straight for the driver's seat, “Get out.”

The bewildered driver got out, and in the next moment, Lewis took his place.

The driver was stunned. “Mr. Horton, where are you

going? I...

Before he could finish, the sound of the gas pedal being floored echoed, and the Bentley shot out rapidly!

A business car was driven by Lewis with the fervor of a

race car.

Tom ran breathlessly after him, and upon seeing th situation, he gestured to the other bodyguards. “W are you

waiting for? Hurry up and follow!”

Lewis sped all the way to the Horton residence.

He didn’t park the car in the parking lot but headed straight for the courtyard outside old Mrs. Horton's

quarters!
