Rebecca couldn’t believe the face she was looking at.
She felt as though she had suddenly fallen into a dream.
The familiar face that had haunted her dreams for the past month was so clear that she wondered if her
eyes were deceiving her.
She widened her eyes, daring not to blink for fear that the person in front of her would disappear if she
did.
It wasn’t until the car turned a corner and vanished from sight that Rebecca ca back to her senses.
d you see that? That
She turned her head back toward Frankie hurriedly. “Frankie, did you see that? Did you was Miss
Keira. Did I see it wrong?”
She was so excited she was almost in tears.
Frankie was grabbed by her, and he responded with a wry smile, “I saw it…”
Rebecca imdiately said, “Frankie, hurry and chase after them! Take to her!”
Frankie nodded. “Okay”
The two quickly walked to a nearby car, got in, and gave chase.
anwhile, Keira was completely unaware that Frankie and Rebecca were following her.
Sitting in the passenger seat, she wore a worried expression, “I still feel sothing is off with Mary. The
video call just now revealed nothing”
Lewis was driving. “Then stop worrying needlessly. Their marriage is a good thing for you.”
Keira sighed. “While that might be true, I still want her to be happy”
Lewis remained silent.
Keira was about to speak again when her phone suddenly vibrated.
She glanced down and instantly sat up straighter.
Lewis saw her reaction and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“The second task has arrived.”
Keira stared at the text ssage.
The ssage was from an international number, with its origin already erased, untraceable even by
hackers. The content was simple.
“Congratulations. You’re about to complete the first task, which is a collaboration between the Davis
family and the Olsen family. The second task is to achieve collaborations with the other three of the five
great families of Clance as soon as possible.
Upon reading this ssage, Keira was stupefied.
She read the ssage to Lewis and then furrowed her brows. “This doesn’t sound like a task. It’s more
like they want to build a business empire! Everyone knows that in Clance, the five great families

check and balance each other, and no single enterprise can collaborate with all five at once
Lewis glanced at her. “You seem rather well–inford about the current situation in Clance”
Kela touched her nose. “Did you think I was a housewife last month at the South residence? I’ve
already figured out everything about the five great families of the Clance
Apart from the Olsen and the Davis familles, there were also the Allen family, the Gill family, and the
Freeman family.
Keera Technology Co., Ltd. had already completed collaborations with the Olsen and Davis families;
the remaining task was to collaborate with the other three.
As for Frankie’s family,
That shouldn’t be a problem… right?
After all, it was Rebecca’s family.
If all else fails, she could let Lewis pull so strings, or even ask Samuel to help bridge a connection,
considering Dr. South’s company had previously bought materials from the Allen family!
That part shouldn’t be difficult.
She never considered revealing her identity.
“They were too dangerous; the fewer people knew she was Keira, the less danger she faced.
She now lived not only as herself, but more importantly, she needed to save her mother, Jodie South….
What about collaborations with the Gill and Freeman families… How was she going to manage that?!
While Keira was lost in her thoughts, the car arrived at the South residence.
The gates of the South ho opened, the car entered the garage, and she and Lewis went upstairs.
Keira continued to ponder about the collaborations as she entered the study, turned on the computer,
and began reviewing the collaborative areas of the Gill and Freeman families to see if there were any
projects she could work with.
Lewis, left at the doorway by her abrupt entrance, wasn’t upset. He simply brought his computer into
the study, sat down on the sofa facing her, and began his work.
However, in the midst of working, Lewis suddenly paused.
He couldn’t help but look up
at Keira.
He rembered Keira always struggled terribly during her monthly period and needed to take iron
supplents.
But sohow, it didn’t seem like she had her period this month.
Considering the ti….
Indeed, it was that ti of the month, but Keira showed no signs of it.
And just last night, they slept together, and she showed no signs of nstruation!
Could such things be delayed?
Lewis suddenly opened a web page, turned to a search engine, and typed in: What happens when a
woman’s period is late?
The first line was about nstrual irregularities, saying it was normal for periods to be late.
Lewis looked thoughtful for a mont.
Reading further, he suddenly caught sight of an explanation stating if it was more than ten days
overdue, it could be a sign of pregnancy.
Pregnancy..
Lewis shot up from his seat, staring in disbelief at his computer.
This sudden movent startled Keira, who looked up at him and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“No, it’s nothing” Lewis replied, stamring slightly as he swallowed hard. He glanced at his computer
once more, then put it down and walked over to Keira.
Keira refocused on her work.
He stood there quietly next to her, staring at her stomach for a long ti.
As the housemaid was mopping outside, she passed by and saw this scene, shaking her head to
herself. The mistress had found herself a gigolo who wasn’t only talkative and diligent but also quite
handso. The only problem was that he was too clingy!
He was like an aloof cat, always jumping onto the desk or your shoulder, seeking attention.
With these thoughts, the maid continued mopping away into the distance.
Outside the South residence.
Frankie’s car was also stopped at the entrance.
Rebecca stared at the villa for a long ti.
Just now, she watched Keira and Lewis Horton’s car drive in.
So, were they living here?
This small three–story villa was located in the suburbs and looked too small compared to the Horton
family manor… It was certainly not a place for the head of the Horton Group to live in…
After a while, she got out of the car and walked up to the front gate, about to knock on the door.
