Chapter 26: She Is Your Mother

Look alike?
Keira Olsen was slightly taken aback.
Actually, aside from their similar oval faces, her features were different from
Mrs. Olsen’s.
Mrs. Olsen had a pair of phoenix eyes, while she had the amorous eyes.
If they looked similar, it was probably because they both carried a similar kind of cold aura at first glance.
…Which was normal.
After all, when she had just left the Olsen family, she would often think about how Mrs. Olsen would handle the difficulties she faced.
She emulated Mrs. Olsen’s way of behaving in society, and it was not surprising that she had unconsciously acquired some of her vibes.
Keira Olsen looked at the old woman: “Grandma, she is not my mother. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
But the old woman was adamant: “She is! My granddaughter-in-law, how
could you disown your mother?”
Keira Olsen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
The old woman was having one of her moments again.
Fortunately, at that moment Lewis Horton showed up at the door of the ward with packed dinner, and the old woman stopped perseverating.
The dinner Lewis Horton had prepared was quite lavish.
In addition to some light meals, there were fruits enough for three people.
But the old woman immediately frowned: “My granddaughter-in-law can’t eat mangoes, she’s allergic to them!
Keira Olsen was slightly stunned.
She looked at the old woman in bewilderment: “Grandma, how do you know
that?”
She did indeed used to be allergic to mangoes, but after improving her physical conditions two years ago, she outgrew the allergy.
Therefore, she never told the old woman about this!
The old woman chuckled: “You told me about it before, saying that as soon as you ate mangoes, your face was covered with small red bumps…”
Keira Olsen became serious: “When was this before?”
But the old woman was confused again: “It seems to be before the wedding…
Yes, you told me before the wedding!”
But Keira Olsen was certain that she didn’t even know the old woman at that time!
And she didn’t have amnesia!
She quickly asked: “Did anything else come to your mind? Like how Mr. Horton and I got our marriage certificate?”
The old woman shook her head: “I can’t remember…
It seemed that the old woman needed a specific environment to occasionally remember anything.
While Keira Olsen was deep in thought, she suddenly sensed an analytical gaze
on her.
She turned her head and met Lewis Horton’s deep gaze.
The man was expressionless, clearly having understood what the old woman had said, giving him the impression that she was manipulative again!
She really felt that she was being unjustly accused.
Keira Olsen suddenly picked up the dog and said, “Grandma, you two start eating first, I will take the dog for a walk.”
After saying this, she went out of the room.
She didn’t go far, she just stopped at the end of the corridor, holding the dog and leaning against the wall, her lush amorous eyes watching the old woman’s ward.
As expected, a tall figure followed her out not long after.
When Lewis Horton saw her, he slowly walked over, his deep voice sounded:
“Miss Olsen, do you have something to say?”
Keira Olsen pursed her lips, “I thought you might want an explanation.”
“Does Miss Olsen have anything she wants to explain?
Keira Olsen said earnestly: “I really don’t know what the grandma meant when she mentioned the things before the wedding.”
Even she found it inconceivable to say these things. After all, mango allergy belonged to her personal privacy, something that the old woman couldn’t have fabricated.
She thought the man would question her, but to her surprise, he calmly responded with a single word: “Oh.
Keira Olsen was baffled by his attitude: “Mr. Horton, do you believe me?”
“I don’t know.”
Keira Olsen: ?
Lewis Horton suddenly stepped closer. Because of his natural height difference, Keira Olsen had a feeling that she was being condescendingly looked down upon by him.
He slowly said, “Miss Olsen, regardless of your motives, if you can keep Grandma happy, I promise I can protect you.
Keira Olsen suddenly understood his thoughts.
This man didn’t care about the truth at all. He didn’t care whether she was lying.
He was very powerful, having the power to dominate in Oceanion, and not afraid of any plots…
He only cared about the old woman.
Even if she was scheming something, as long as she could make the old woman happy, this man might be willing to turn a blind eye…
“Of course.”
All of a sudden, the man’s aura shifted: “If you hurt grandma, I will make it impossible for you to stay in Oceanion.”
Keira Olsen responded more to coaxing than pressure, she sneered: “Mr. Horton, aren’t you doing that already?”
Lewis Horton frowned, he was about to say something when a hearty voice came over:
“Keira Olsen?”
Keira Olsen turned her head to see Professor Miller.
He must have gotten a cold, his voice was a bit hoarse. After he walked over, he directly said, “I was about to call you and ask if you got a job? Was the misunderstanding between you and Mr. Horton resolved? Mr. Horton is really not manly enough, is he? Picking on a girl like you, not only canceling your postgraduate recommendation, but also threatening to make you disappear from Oceanion?”
Lewis Horton: ??
Keira Olsen glanced at Lewis Horton with a sardonic smile: “Professor, don’t worry, the misunderstanding has been resolved. Mr. Horton is quite nice, he got me a job and even promised to protect me-
The mockingly sarcastic tone made Lewis Horton’s expression darken.
Professor Miller sighed with relief, and it was only then that he noticed Lewis Horton. Seeing the two of them so close, he thought of the conversation between Isla Olsen and Poppy Hill last time, and instinctively asked: “Is this your…gangster husband?”
Lewis Horton:His face darkened further.
The smile on the corners of Keira Olsen’s lips brightened a bit: “Well, sort of.”
Professor Miller then looked at Lewis Horton very seriously: “Young man, you’re strong and handsome, you should work hard to find a decent job!
Olsen Mansion.
The entire family was having lunch in the dining room.
Mrs. Olsen didn’t look well, and she seemed to have no appetite.
Taylor Olsen immediately expressed his concern: “Shirley, what’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?”
Mrs. Olsen waved him off.
Isla Olsen then said: “Dad, we ran into Keira in the hospital today, Mom must
be worried about her.”
Taylor Olsen frowned: “Why worry about her?
Isla Olsen sighed: “She definitely hates me now, blaming me for her expulsion from school and for forcing her to go abroad… I’m worried that she’ll say something in front of old Mrs. Horton, and Mr. Horton will vent his anger on me…”
Taylor Olsen sneered: “That’s because she offended Mr. Horton, what does it have to do with you? Even if she saved old Mrs. Horton’s life, it’s their business. As a matter of fact, it was Mr. Horton who ordered us to discipline our daughter well!”
Isla Olsen looked stiff.
She clearly remembered the incident in which she intentionally mentioned that Mr. Horton had left a message… That should be over by now, right?
She was always acutely aware that her father, Taylor Olsen’s kindness towards her, was solely because she was Mrs. Olsen’s daughter!
If he knew that she had displeased Mr. Horton… the consequences would be unimaginable!
But just then, Taylor Olsen’s phone rang.
He picked it up: “Mr. Davis?! Why did you call me? Does Mr. Horton have any instructions?”
Upon hearing this, Isla Olsen felt her heart sink!!
It shouldn’t be what she thought, right? She was panicked!
