Chapter 125: Daughter

Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

Upon Old Mrs. Horton’s words, the crowd immediately quieted down.

Everyone’s gaze uniformly shifted toward Lewis.

Keira saw his lips pursed slightly before she quickly changed the subject. “Grandma, I’m a bit cold. Let’s go back to the room first.”

Old Mrs. Horton immediately spoke nervously. “My granddaughter-in-law is cold, so we must hurry back, or she’ll catch a chill, especially since we’re in the preconception period… colds can’t be allowed…”

Having said this, she grabbed Keira’s hand and walked toward the courtyard. “My granddaughter-in-law, this is your home! You are not going anywhere else! From now on, you’ll stay right here!”

Keira helplessly touched her forehead.

She stole a glance back at Lewis.

Both of them held special statuses, and their marriage was tied to too much.

Moreover, the unspoken understanding between the two hadn’t yet been agreed on, so it was best to be cautious about going public.

Melissa spoke up. “Lewis, Grandma is senile and has been fooled by this girl. She’s not a good person, and she can’t stay in our house! You must not be confused either!”

Lewis didn’t bother to explain much, his voice somewhat grave. “Sister-in-law, you don’t have the say in Grandma’s courtyard! Besides…”

His gaze swept around the surroundings, looking at the security guards. “You dared to lay hands on my guest in Grandma’s courtyard. None of you need to show up tomorrow!”

Leaving behind those words, he went into old Mrs. Horton’s courtyard.

The security guards who were beaten immediately cried out, “Mr. Horton, it was Ms. Knight who ordered us to act. We didn’t want to do it…”

Just as Tom arrived and saw the scene unfold, he stepped forward with a smile. “You claim to be wronged? You don’t even know who the master of this house is! Get lost! Otherwise, I assure you that you won’t find work elsewhere!”

The group of people immediately felt silent and left, resigned.

Tom looked around with an implied warning, “Get out of this place, okay? It should be very clear in your employment contracts what you can and cannot say about Horton’s family matters.”

The onlookers promptly bowed their heads and left respectfully.

Before long, only Melissa, Isla, and Jake remained.

Melissa spat toward the doorway in anger, then turned to grumble at Isla. “Without understanding the situation, why did you make senseless outcries here? It landed me in such a position that I thought we could drive this little slut out!”

Isla lowered her head in distress. “Melissa, it’s my fault.”

Melissa took several deep breaths and turned to look at Jake who hadn’t yet come to his senses, and she immediately felt an uncontrollable rage. She glared at Isla. “I really don’t know what kind of witchcraft this little slut has used to bewitch the old Mrs. Horton and these two men like this! Isla, I don’t care by what means you do it, but you must drive her out! Otherwise, forget about me handing over the house’s authority to you!”

With that, she stormed off.

Isla stood in place, thinking of how just moments ago Keira was so protected by old Mrs. Horton and Mr. Horton, then looking at Jake who was staring blankly at the entrance of old Mrs. Horton’s courtyard, she felt something stuffy in her chest.

She lowered her head. “Jake, I didn’t bring some of my personal clothing over.

I’m going home to get them.”

“Okay.”

Jake seemed as if he hadn’t really paid attention to her words.

Isla left for the Olsen residence, fuming.

She might not be able to drive Keira out, but there was someone whose words

Keira would definitely listen to.

She entered with a worried expression and saw Taylor and Mrs. Olsen sitting on the living room sofa watching TV. When they saw her come home, Taylor was surprised. “Didn’t you move to the Horton residence? Why have you come back?”

Mrs. Olsen’s attitude, however, was very lukewarm. She was still angry about Isla insisting on marrying into the Horton family.

That’s when Isla lowered her head and said to Taylor, “I’ve come back to get some clothes. I also wanted to mention that Keira… She’s not having a great time at the Horton’s place.”

Taylor didn’t pay any attention to the topic at hand.

But Mrs. Olsen gave her a look. “What’s wrong with Keira?”

Isla sighed. “Her attitude with Mr. Horton is ambiguous, and everyone is gossiping about her.”

Mrs. Olsen immediately frowned. “Keira is staying at the Horton’s place to take care of old Mrs. Horton. Where did you hear all this nonsense? Keira isn’t the type to fool around. I believe in her character, and I don’t want to hear this sort of thing from you again!”

Isla knew it would be like this.

She felt intense hatred inside. Mrs. Olsen had never trusted her like that!

Fortunately, she had evidence…

Lowering her head, Isla said, “That’s what I thought too, but today at the Horton’s, a piece of evidence is being circulated. It’s an intimate photo of Keira and Mr. Horton…”

Having said this, she took out her phone, opened up the photo, and handed it over to Mrs. Olsen.

Mrs. Olsen frowned as she looked at the photo. Her first reaction was that it was a setup, but as she looked closer, her pupils contracted slightly.

Taylor had already started cursing loudly. “Shameless! How could I have such a shameless daughter? She’s already married, and she’s still messing around with Mr. Horton?”

With tears in her voice, Isla said, “Because of her, my mother-in-law now thinks I’m the same sort of person, and she’s asking me to find a way to get Keira out of the Horton’s place… But Keira won’t listen to a word I say, and today she even publicly defied Melissa at the Horton’s, saying that even if Mrs. Horton herself tried to drive her away, she wouldn’t leave… She also said, she also said…”

Taylor frowned. “What else did she say? Out with it. You’re making me anxious!”

“She said that her mother has been living in our house since she was a child, and that in the future she wants Mrs. Horton to learn to be more magnanimous from her and accept that it’s normal for a man to have concubines… Father, mother, with her causing such a scene, how can I keep my head up at the Horton’s place from now on!”

Mrs. Olsen suddenly spoke up. “That’s impossible! These words don’t sound like something she would say!”

Isla bit her lip.

However, Taylor shouted angrily, “What’s impossible about it? Shirley, you’ve been deceived by her! She really is living at the Horton’s now, right? And her ambiguous attitude with Mr. Horton is also true! No wonder last time at the hospital, Mr. Horton helped with arranging a hospital bed, and he’s always been nice to her since then. It seems she hooked up with Mr. Horton a long time ago! Only you, who are kind-hearted, think she won’t change!”

Mrs. Olsen looked dumbfounded at him.

Every time Keira came up, Taylor’s attitude made her feel utterly bewildered.

Even though she was his daughter, why would he suspect her with the worst possible motives?

She suddenly recalled the day before, Keira said she wasn’t Taylor’s daughter… although she had fainted afterward, she still remembered those words.

Previously, she always thought it was said in a fit of anger.

But considering Taylor’s attitude every time Keira’s name came up…

Mrs. Olsen suddenly asked, “Taylor, is Keira really your daughter?”

Taylor was taken aback, his expression changing slightly.

This slight change didn’t escape Mrs. Olsen’s sharp gaze, and she frowned.. “Is

Keira really not your daughter?!”
