Chapter 494: Chapter 493 Chapter 494: Chapter 493 Old Mrs. Horton’s actions left everyone dumbstruck.
The next mont, Jas Olsen tried to shield Keira Olsen, “Old Mrs. Horton, let’s talk this out, but please, don’t raise a hand!”
Even as he spoke, he prepared to defend against any impending blow.
If Old Mrs. Horton dared to strike, his little sister and senior disciple certainly wouldn’t fight back, so he’d have to step up and take a few hits himself!
Old Mrs. Horton’s actions not only caused Jas Olsen to misunderstand but also had everyone around them confused. Just as they were about to offer words of comfort, they saw—
Old Mrs. Horton grabbed Keira Olsen’s hand, looking at her earnestly, “You are Miss Olsen?”
This scene baffled the onlookers.
Jas Olsen didn’t know where to put his outstretched hand anymore!
Keira Olsen looked at Old Mrs. Horton.
Flashbacks of the ti they had depended on each other crossed her mind, rembering how Old Mrs. Horton cooked eggs for her, gently massaged her bruised face…
She knew Old Mrs. Horton had recognized her.
After all, Old Mrs. Horton had gone through so much. Even now, ill as she was, she could imdiately understand that this was not the ti to reveal her identity. That’s why she asked like this…
Keira Olsen felt her eyes and nose grow a bit sour…
Even her eyes were a bit moist as she nodded, “Yes, Grandma, I am Keera Olsen.”
Old Mrs. Horton was taken aback, “Keera Olsen?”
“Right.” Keira Olsen nodded again, “It’s Keera with an ‘a’.”
Old Mrs. Horton’s eyes reddened further, nodding as she spoke, “What a good na, pretty, just befitting my grandson’s wife! Good child, why didn’t you co to see after you got engaged to Lewis?”
Keira Olsen quickly responded, “I’ve been a bit busy recently, Grandma, sorry.”
“What’s there to be sorry for? Just co more often from now on.”
Old Mrs. Horton clung tightly to her hand, “Good child, Grandma took a liking to you the mont I saw you! Fiona, hurry, bring our family’s heirloom bracelet for my granddaughter-in-law to wear! Child, co, let’s sit over there for a while, keep this old lady company and chat…”
Keira Olsen nodded promptly.
She supported Old Mrs. Horton, feeling the elder still trembling.
Suddenly, she felt a little heartache and guilt.
Having moved to Clance for so long, the Hortons knew Old Mrs. Horton was unwell and she was upset on her behalf, yet she never visited her—that was truly unfilial!
With these thoughts, Keira Olsen assisted Old Mrs. Horton to the side.
But Jas Olsen was baffled, “Wait, Old Mrs. Horton, does this an you are quite pleased with my sister?”
Old Mrs. Horton imdiately laughed, “Yes, yes, very pleased! I’m super pleased. This young lady is so beautiful, she’s exactly my type! She is Lewis’s wife!”
Jas Olsen: ?
All the bystanders?!
Even Victoria Olsen couldn’t help but interject, “But Grandma Horton, she has a boyfriend outside!”
At this, the Olsen brothers imdiately cast fierce glares at her.
What on earth was going on with her?
Could she really say such a thing at this ti?!
Through Victoria’s words, Old Mrs. Horton thought of how her grandson had been out of the house every day, saying he was driving his fiancée around…
She imdiately understood—the so-called gigolo maintained by her granddaughter-in-law was actually her own grandson?!
Old Mrs. Horton glared at Victoria Olsen, “What of it? As long as my granddaughter-in-law is willing to marry my grandson, even if she has ten or eight outside, I wouldn’t mind!”
The crowd: ?
Keira Olsen: ??
Even Jas Olsen was stunned, watching the pair walk to the side. He even felt that the world had beco fantastical.
He couldn’t help but turn to Charles Olsen beside him, “Did our little sister give Old Mrs. Horton so kind of bewitching drug? How could she even say such a thing?”
Charles Olsen replied, “I think maybe Old Mrs. Horton has mistaken her identity?”
Victoria Olsen imdiately said, “Right, I heard Old Mrs. Horton has dentia, she must be confused!”
Upon hearing this, the crowd paused, then quickly ca to a realization:
“That’s what happened! Well, it at least dissolved the conflict between the two families, breaking today’s deadlock!”
“Yes, yes, let’s get on with it, but why hasn’t Lewis Horton, Mr. Horton arrived?”
“How mysterious, right?”
“…”
As the crowd chatted, Victoria Olsen glared maliciously at Keera Olsen and Old Mrs. Horton sitting on a sofa in the corner.
Wondering what they had said, Old Mrs. Horton suddenly began tearing up.
Keera Olsen quickly pulled out a handkerchief to wipe Old Mrs. Horton’s tears, their appearance together looking quite harmonious!
But how could this be?!
Breathing deeply, Victoria Olsen caught sight of a figure entering through the back door…
The man, dressed in a suit, was extrely handso—it was Keera Olsen’s gigolo driver!
Victoria Olsen smirked and walked over to confront him.
“What are you doing here?!”
Victoria Olsen blocked Lewis Horton’s path and scolded loudly, “Do you know this is the Horton ho, are you here to find Keera? Did Keera ask you to co?”
After she finished speaking, soone nearby asked, “Miss Olsen, who is this?”
“He is the gigolo Keera Olsen is keeping outside!! I can’t believe Keera brought him to the banquet. You better leave right now, your presence here is a slap in the face to the Horton Family!”
