572 Chapter 571
Lewis's statent shocked everyone, and they looked at him in disbelief.
Old Mr. Martin also wanted to look at the photo, but because of the distance, he couldn't see it clearly yet…
Scott asked hesitantly, "Why did you say that?"
Lewis looked at Vera. "Because I helped old Mr. Martin not only find his daughter but also his granddaughter!"
These words made Vera's pupils shrink, and she shouted angrily, "That's impossible! This photo could never be restored! You couldn't possibly have found them!"
Lewis asked, "Why are you so sure of that?"
Vera sneered, "Because when I was tearing up the photo just now, I tore up the face! I flushed the face down the drain, so you can't possibly have restored it successfully!"
Upon hearing this, old Mr. Martin was enraged, "You... how could you do that?!"
Vera sneered. "Because the Martin family isn't decisive enough! The girls from the South family aren't at your beck and call, and since you chose , you have to stick with that choice!"
Scott was enraged by her words. "What do you an by sticking to that choice? Do you think we are at your beck and call?"
"Isn't it so?" Vera held her chin high, her gaze sweeping over old Mr. Martin. " Mr. Martin, haven't you told your grandson the truth?"
Scott imdiately looked at old Mr. Martin. "Grandfather, didn't you say it was about cooperation? What's happening here?"
Old Mr. Martin's jaw tightened.
Vera scoffed, "The Martin family wants to enter the ga, and they have to beg us. Otherwise, why do you think he would choose ?"
After saying this, she looked at Lewis. "So, there's no way that photo could have been restored. If you don't believe , you can take it out and let Mr. Martin see for himself!"
Old Mr. Martin then looked at Lewis, and Keira also looked over, indeed seeing that the restored photo was missing the faces of two people.
She frowned, staring at Lewis.
Old Mr. Martin's face turned livid with anger. "Mr. Horton, what do you an by this? Do you find it amusing to toy with us?!"
Vera scoffed, "He's just trying to stall. What else could he do? Mr. Martin, can't you see their intentions yet? Why don't you drive them out?!"
Old Mr. Martin took a deep breath and looked at Lewis. "Mr. Horton, Miss Olsen, you both… should leave now!"
Vera smiled mockingly. "Just now, you were boasting, and now, you can't produce the photo! Keera, your fiancée, is nothing special after all! I advise you to just leave obediently, lest I have soone drive you out!"
At that, Keira suddenly let out a cold laugh, "Vera, you always underestimate other people."
She and Lewis exchanged glances as if understanding each other's thoughts, and then she lowered her gaze and slowly said, "Even though the photo isn't restored, I find the deanor of those won very familiar…"
Lewis nodded. "Yes, this photo is only missing the faces, but we can still see the dress and deanor of the mother and daughter. Therefore, Mr. Martin, we can help you find your daughter!"
Old Mr. Martin's eyes lit up slightly, "Really?"
"Really."
Lewis said calmly.
Vera imdiately scoffed. "Based on this faceless photo? Mr. Horton, stop bluffing!"
After saying that, she glared fiercely at old Mr. Martin. "And Mr. Martin, I told you, it's best not to be a fence-sitter! My patience is limited! Even if they help you find your daughter, will Keera marry your grandson?!"
Hearing this, old Mr. Martin once again seed dejected.
He gave a bitter smile. "That's true. Mr. Horton, I appreciate your kindness, but regarding finding my daughter, I don't want to owe you any favors, so I won't have to face you later..."
The Martin family was clearly on Vera's side; there would be a battle to the death with Keera.
So, old Mr. Martin wisely chose not to owe Lewis any favors in order to avoid complications later.
Vera scoffed. "Did you hear that? It doesn't matter that the photo isn't restored; even if it was and you helped him find his daughter, you wouldn't be able to team up with the Martins!"
Lewis laughed. "Who says we can't?"
Vera's eyes imdiately narrowed. "What do you an?"
Lewis said, "Actually, I wasn't certain of my speculations at first, but seeing you so agitated, I've beco even more sure of my thinking."
Vera frowned upon hearing this. "What do you an? Don't talk nonsense here!"
"Every ti I wanted to see the photo, Miss Vera, you beca so agitated. Does that an you know who Mr. Martin's daughter is? You won't tell us why, but you've been preventing us from seeing the photo. Is it because..."
Lewis looked at old Mr. Martin. "It's because your daughter is Keera's mother! Keera is your granddaughter! Once this matter is cleared up, the Martin family won't need to form a marriage alliance with the South family through Vera! Because... you've already allied with the South family and have made your choice!"
Upon these words, the entire room fell silent!
Old Mr. Martin looked incredulously at Keira!
