My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

Howard glanced at Keera with a flicker of something in his eyes before he said, “Okay, don’t worry. I’ll definitely think of something.”

Having said that, he turned around and left with Cindy.

But Cindy had already caught on to something and blurted out, “Divorce her, then you won’t have any responsibilities!”

She was already pregnant with Howard’s child and, of course, hoped that Howard could have a good life.

Howard frowned, however. “That’s the worst choice. If we really get divorced, I might end up with nothing. Wouldn’t all my efforts in the past three years go to

waste?!”

He had been married to Keera for three years already…

Cindy didn’t want him to walk away empty-handed either and immediately said, “Then what should we

do?”

–

“There must be a way; there’s definitely a way…”

Howard stroked his chin, and his eyes lit up. “When we were in Oceanion, she had a pretty good relationship with Uncle Olsen. Let’s find Uncle Olsen to intervene. Just one word from him to Davis

Corporation, and they’ll surely stop pursuing the lawsuit. As long as they withdraw the legal action, there’s still a chance for everything to turn around!”

After he and Cindy left, Keira’s phone lit up, displaying a WhatsApp notification that Mary had added her as a

friend.

Soon after came a message from Mary.

“I blocked you for five minutes, consider it payback for the half-year you blocked me! Teehee!

“By the way, how are things on your end? Is he going to divorce you?”

Keira replied, “Not yet.”

Mary asked, “So what now?”

Keira said. “It looks like he won’t give up until he’s at the end of his rope. As long as Davis Corporation doesn’t drop the lawsuit, he’ll be like an ant on a hot

pan. Don’t rush it.”

Mary’s chat status continuously showed that she was typing…

But after ten minutes of typing, still no message came.

Keira, unable to resist, asked, “What’s wrong? Is there something inconvenient on your end?”

Mary immediately replied, “No, I just feel like you’re not quite the same as before.”

Keira looked at the message and was about to respond with something when she saw another message from Mary pop up. “Keera, no matter what happens, I’ll always stand by your side. Whether it’s the past you, the present you, or the future you. As long as it’s you, I will always be there for you!”

Keira froze as she read the message.

She had been acting as her sister for a while, and her interactions with Mary made her feel like she had a

friend for the first time.

At this moment, looking at the message, she wanted to tell Mary that she was no longer Keera…

But after a long silence, she ultimately didn’t voice that

thought.

She thought that if Keera was still alive, she would certainly have regretted being too love-struck to trust in friendship and blocked Mary…

Keira was silent for a long, long time, and finally replied with only one sentence. “Thank you for liking

Keera.”

The message was actually a bit odd.

But Keera often said strange things, so Mary didn’t

mind it.

She was yet to put down her phone when Uncle Davis, who was sitting across the dining table from her suddenly scoffed. “Mary, as long as you land the next client, I’ll secure the position of R&D project tear leader for you. Could you please focus a little and being so distracted?”

Mary immediately set down her phone. “Unele, don’t worry. I’ll definitely perform well.”

She needed to stay in the company to find a way to retract the lawsuit after the divorce or to help Keera pay that twenty million, so if there was a chance to

keen the job she had to try.

Uncle Davis’s eyes flickered with a hint of mockery as he heard her. “Hmm, Mr. Lynch is not very tactful. Don’t provoke him later.”

Mary nodded. “I understand, Uncle.”

No sooner had these words fallen than there was a knock on the door, followed by the entry of a portly

man.

He appeared to be in his forties, and his appearance was quite greasy.

After shaking hands with Uncle Davis, he immediately turned to Mary with a beaming smile. “Mr. Davis, who is this young lady? I’ve never seen her before!”

Uncle Davis replied with a smile, “This is my fourth brother’s daughter, who is currently interning at Day Corporation. Today she’s accompanying me to gain some exposure.”

Mr. Lynch immediately nodded. “Oh? Miss Davis, a

pleasure to meet you…”

He extended his hand toward Mary.

When Mary took his hand, she only felt his palm

clammy and quite disgusting.

She tried to pull her hand back, but he tightened his grip slightly, making it hard for her to pull away.

Immediately, she sought help from her uncle with her

eyes.

Uncle Davis then said with a laugh, “Mr. Lynch, please take a seat! The dishes will get cold if we wait much longer!”

Only then did Mr. Lynch sit down with a lecherous grin.

Uncle Davis discussed a few matters about the contract with Mr. Lynch. This was Uncle Davis’s project. If he could seal the deal, it would earn him the admiration of the first branch and further solidify his position within Davis Corporation.

But Mr. Lynch, all smiles, avoided bringing up the contract and kept glancing over at Mary.

Uncle Davis then said with a laugh, “Mary, Mr. Lynch has taken a liking to you. Why don’t you toast him?”

Mary felt repulsed by the look in Mr. Lynch’s eyes.

Reluctantly, she stood up with her glass, walked over to Mr. Lynch, and said with a smile, “Uncle. Lynch, my

69

uncle often speaks of you, saying you’re a good friend.

I’d like to offer you a toast!”

With that statement, she distinguished their generational gap.

It caused a sudden change in Mr. Lynch’s expression.

Uncle Davis furrowed his brows and glared at Mary, then shot a look at Mr. Lynch.

Mary was only paying attention to Mr. Lynch and didn’t notice her uncle’s expression. She just saw Mr. Lynch’s expression change, and then he stood up. “Alright, my dear niece, your Uncle Lynch will surely take good care of you from now on!” NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Mary breathed a sigh of relief and downed the content of her glass all at once.

Then she looked at Uncle Davis. “Uncle, I just

remembered that I still have some work to do. You and

Uncle Lynch enjoy yourselves. I need to head back!”

Having said that, she quickly picked up her bag and started walking out.

Even a fool could see that something was off with Uncle Davis; how could she possibly stay there?!

But just as she took a few steps, she suddenly felt dizzy, and her body went limp!

Mary instantly realized what had happened and looked desperately at her glass, then incredulously at Uncle

Davis!!

She thought, being the daughter of the Davis family and her uncle’s niece, she was just a ploy to secure a contract with her beauty, but she had never imagined Uncle Davis would drug her drink!

This was completely beyond what she could comprehend or accept!

She rushed to the door and flung it open, hoping to cry for help from anyone passing by.

Yet, she hadn’t expected that when she opened the door, the person walking by her private room would actually be Ellis.

Hearing the commotion, he turned around in surprise

and saw Mary.

As their eyes met, the plea for help choked in her

throat.

Mary stood there, stunned.

Ope

In her mind, she heard the words Ellis had once said about her during a matchmaking encounter. “… indeed, just an empty-headed beauty with nothing but looks.”

Would he think even less of her if he found out she was using her looks to discuss a deal?

“My dear niece, you’ve had too much drink! Come have

some tea…”

From behind, Uncle Davis suddenly approached and grabbed Mary’s arm, pulling her back inside, then proceeded to push the door closed.

In the very moment he was about to shut the door, a hand suddenly stopped it…
