My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

492  Chapter 491

Jake was in a daze when Victoria said, "It's Keera, who is Uncle Olsen's biological daughter."

Jake's heart stirred with excitement, and he fixed his gaze on Victoria, speaking slowly, "Keera? Shouldn't the Olsen family's biological daughter have the same surname?"

Victoria lowered her eyes. "Yes, to be precise, she should be Keera Olsen."

Jake's expression suddenly became even more stupefied, "How do you spell her name?"

Victoria didn't understand why he asked this, but she still answered thoughtfully, "It's Keera with two e. After she was reunited with us, she became Keera Olsen."

Keera Olsen… Keira Olsen…

Jake gave a bitter smile.

Such a clever name indeed.

Was this the reason why Lewis would agree to marry her?

Victoria continued. "I don't know if you are aware, but Keera was married before. However, she encountered a scumbag and is now divorced with a daughter. She was psychologically affected by the divorce, so she found a younger boyfriend. Uncle Olsen has been thinking about getting her to break up. Don't worry. Once Keera marries into the Horton family, she will break up with…"

Victoria was earnestly setting a trap for "Keera".

Unfortunately, she set it in the wrong place.

Jake responded coldly, "That's fine."

Victoria was surprised. "What?"

"I said, it's good she has a boyfriend. She and my uncle are truly a match made in heaven!"

Leaving behind that sardonic remark, Jake deliberately turned around. "Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."

Then he went back inside.

Victoria was confused.

She furrowed her brows.

Shouldn't Jake be angry about Keera's unchaste behavior? Why was his reaction so different from what she expected?

But such a reaction would do as well.

Everyone from the Horton family was in the rooms, and no one came out to greet the Olsen family, which sufficiently showed their dissatisfaction with this marriage!

Thinking of this, Victoria slowly curled her lips, then swayed the glass of red wine in her hand slightly.

"Keera... So what if you've taken the place of the Olsen family's precious daughter? Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

"At today's banquet, the one who will be embarrassed is still you!"

…

"What's going on here?! Is this how the Horton family treats their guests?!"

After the Olsen family gathered in the parking lot, they headed toward the Horton family's banquet hall.

They had thought that if Lewis Horton weren't there, someone from the first branch or old Mrs. Horton would come out to greet them. But to their surprise, there wasn't a single person at the entrance.

James couldn't hold back anymore and immediately blurted out a comment.

Charles was more naïve and said, "Maybe there are more guests today, and they haven't arrived yet. Let's walk slower to give them some time."

James agreed. "That's true. After all, the Horton family has just established a foothold in Clance and lacks experience. It's normal for this kind of banquet to have issues. Let's walk slower and wait a bit longer."

The group deliberated, pointing at the surrounding scenery while they walked.

Although it seemed they were commenting on the Horton family's garden, their actual conversation was something else.

"Have they come out yet?"

"Has anyone from the Horton family come yet?"

"My smile has frozen! What do I do?"

"I can hardly suppress my anger!"

"If they don't come out now, we'll turn around and leave!"

"We can't go. All of us have come here, and if we leave now, that would truly break off the relationship!"

"Then let it break off. If they don't respect us, will the Horton family treat my little sister respectfully after she marries into their family?"

"Keera, say something. As long as you say you don't want this arranged marriage anymore, we'll leave right away. What's the deal with Lewis Horton? Wasn't he quite happy when he first made the betrothal to our family? Why is he so rude now?"

"..."

The group of people were chattering incessantly, and the faces of several elders began to look increasingly displeased.

Just then, a discordant voice came from within the crowd. "Do you think the Horton family knows about our little sister's gigolo boyfriend? After all, the rumor is spreading fiercely..."

Everyone fell silent at this statement.

Keira looked toward the person who spoke, and it turned out to be her fifth brother, Peter.

Keira had little contact with Peter, but through their few interactions, she knew he wasn't very talkative and tended to be gloomy.

And he was somewhat stubborn.

By saying this, he was implying that Keira had done something wrong.

Just as Keira wanted to say something in her defense, James said, "Peter, what are you saying? Whose side are you taking?"

Peter sighed. "Regarding personal feelings, I stand with our little sister, but we have to look at the facts. The incident with our little sister has blown up. If the Horton family still comes out to welcome us enthusiastically, they'll become the laughingstock of Clance..."

James immediately responded angrily, "But if they don't come out to greet us, we'll become the laughingstock of Clance!"

Peter became silent.

He glanced at Keira and earnestly advised, "Little sister, you should break up with that gigolo! It's not acceptable for you to carry on like this..."

Even though they walked slowly, they gradually got closer to the main gate.

By now, they had arrived right in front of the main entrance, with just a few steps left to climb.

But still, no one from the Horton family had come out to greet them... novelbin

The Olsen family instantly became the focus of the crowd.

The people who had arrived early wandering around the garden gathered around, pointing and murmuring.

"The Olsen family has arrived, but why isn't anyone from the Horton family coming to meet them?"

"It must be because of that incident! It would be funny if the Horton family did come out!"

"Miss Olsen isn't behaving like a proper lady, openly dating a boyfriend. That's like trampling the Horton family's reputation underfoot. It's no wonder they're not out here to greet them!"

"The Olsen family hasn't had this kind of scandal in years, right? Just recently, there was that incident with Ellis Olsen's wife and child. In the end, it was clarified to be a misunderstanding. Isn't the Olsen family known for their good upbringing? How could this be?"

"What do you know? Keera Olsen wasn't raised in the Olsen family at all. She's the illegitimate daughter Uncle Olsen had when he was cast out, and I've heard she became arrogant and drove Victoria out of the house as soon as she came back!"

"What? Victoria had such good manners and got chased out just like that? Isn't the Olsen family going a bit too far?"

"For someone with Keera's upbringing, once she strikes it rich, she'll do things without considering her reputation. Indeed, it's embarrassing."

"The Olsen family spoils their daughter too much!"

"..."

The series of accusations darkened the expressions of several Olsen brothers.

In the crowd, Victoria's lips curled slightly.

As long as the Horton family didn't come out to meet them, Keera's face would be utterly lost today!

As she was thinking, she suddenly saw a car stop at the back courtyard.

Someone who could park there must be a Horton family member.

The Horton family members were all in the hall receiving guests, so the person arriving now must be... Lewis Horton?!

Victoria's eyes instantly lit up!
