Chapter 260
Mrs. Olsen spoke in an agitated jumble, pointing at the phone as she burst into tears.
Taylor was slightly taken aback, put down his phone, and patted her back. “The person in the video is completely unrecognizable; it might not be her, so don’t get worked up. I’ll help you check!”
“Good, hurry up…”
Mrs. Olsen urged Taylor, pushing him toward the door.
Taylor furrowed his brow and stepped outside.
Mrs. Olsen thought it over and felt that given Taylor’s capabilities, he might not be able to identify the girl, especially since she was wearing a cap and a mask.
Her daughter had clearly returned but didn’t acknowledge her… It must be because Keira knew that the murderer was somewhere nearby!
Mrs. Olsen clenched her fist and reached for her own
phone from the nightstand.
She opened WhatsApp, where she added Uncle Olsen two days prior.

Having kept a low profile over the years, she didn’t have much power to protect herself in Oceanion, so even though she never wanted to see Sam again, she could still prioritize what was more urgent.
She sent a message to Sam. “Can you do me a favor?”
Sam replied instantly. “Consider it done. What do you
need?”
Looking at those words, Mrs. Olsen paused for a
moment.
She pursed her lips with a mix of emotions.
She had buried the past deep in her heart and never wanted anything to do with him again in this lifetime, but for her daughter…
Mrs. Olsen took a deep breath and began to type slowly. “I’ve got some information about my daughter, and I’d like to ask you to help me…”
While she was typing, the door to the room suddenly opened.
Mrs. Olsen was slightly startled and looked up to see Taylor walking in.
Mrs. Olsen casually asked. “Tavlor did you find
anything?” novelbin
Taylor approached her, frowning as he said, “I’ve had people look into it. Shirley, don’t worry…”
He stopped mid-sentence and looked at Mrs. Olsen’s phone. “Who are you messaging?”
Mrs. Olsen was open and honest with Taylor and didn’t hide anything. She handed him her phone, “I thought our combined influence might not be enough, so I wanted to ask Sam for help, given that it concerns
Keira’s life.”
She let Taylor glance at the chat screen before taking her phone back, intending to continue typing. “With him stepping in, we should be able to find Keira more quickly…”
She had barely spoken when suddenly her phone was
snatched from her hand.
Surprised, Mrs. Olsen looked up to see that Taylor had taken her phone, his eyes filled with sorrow. “Shirley, don’t you trust me?”
Mrs. Olsen paused, sensing that Taylor’s emotions
were off at the moment.

After a moment of silence, she said, “Taylor, that’s not what I meant. It’s just that someone wants to kill Keira, and I want to protect her, which is why I sought help from Sam…”
“And then?” Taylor sat down by her bed, his gaze filled with sadness. “After Sam helps you find Keira and sees Keira’s face, which looks so much like her mother’s, he’d immediately realize that Keira is his
child. Given his character, he’d take you and the child away right away… I’m not powerful enough, Shirley, I can’t compete with him for you…”
Mrs. Olsen fell silent for a moment, then laughed bitterly. “I won’t go with him
“But he is domineering in his actions. Once he knows about Keira, he’ll definitely take you away!”
Taylor began to speak hesitantly.
Mrs. Olsen sensed his lack of security and took his hand. “I’m not the young woman I once was, and the foolish things from my youth wouldn’t happen again.
Taylor, you’re overthinking it…”
“I’m not!”

you have always been beautiful, like a fairy,. You’re unattainably, and I can’t even touch you! The way Sam looked at you that day was the same; he has remained single all these years, clearly because he still has feelings for you!”
Mrs. Olsen furrowed her brows and clenched her fists
tightly.
Seeing her like this, Taylor couldn’t help but want to cry. “Shirley, I want to ask you a question.”
Mrs. Olsen said gently, “Go ahead.”
“We’ve been together for twenty-two years. Shirley, even though you never let me touch you, in my heart, you’re my wife, and I love you more than myself. But what about you? Shirley, have you ever loved me?”
Mrs. Olsen was taken aback.
Taylor continued to stare at her. “Back when we got together, you said you just wanted to give the child a father. I also said I wouldn’t expect any emotional response from you, that just being with you would make me happy… But the heart is reassuring. Shirley, tell me, over all these years, haven’t you even a little
bit loved me?”

Mrs. Olsen sighed. “Taylor, we are already at this age. Why bother to talk about whether we love each other
or not?”
“But I do love you! All these years, my love for you has never decreased by a fraction. I’ve always felt that it’s fine to continue living like this. Even if my daughter was locked up, I really didn’t care, as long as you were by my side…”
Taylor raked his fingers through his hair and paced around the room restlessly. “But everything changed when Sam arrived! Shirley, you changed! Ever since you woke up last time, you’ve been often staring out the window in a daze, looking at your phone, wanting to call Sam! Even… your gaze is different when you look at him. The fleeting glance you gave him that day, exposed too much…”
Suddenly, Taylor rushed up to Mrs. Olsen. “The situation was so abrupt that day, and the way you looked at him didn’t have a hint of hatred. That intense longing looked as if you were about to be with him the
next moment!!”
Taylor’s eyes reddened, and he trembled nervously.
“Now that you’ve encountered a problem, the first

person you think of is him. Do you still want to tell him that Keira is his daughter? Shirley, I have protected you for 22 years, 4 months, and 3 days. Haven’t all these days and nights warmed your heart even a little bit?! Have you, even for a moment, ever loved me?!”
He looked very sad, like someone who was abandoned.
Mrs. Olsen was stunned. She clenched her jaw tightly, yet she was not moved by his words.
Her eyes gradually grew colder. “Taylor, I had agreed with Keira to meet a stranger, and I had no idea it was
Sam. How could you know how I looked when I saw
Sam?”
Taylor was speechless.
But Mrs. Olsen suddenly realized something. “Have you been monitoring me?”
She thought back to when she first saw Sam, and they had planned to introduce themselves to each other, but the kidnapping call that interrupted them came at such an opportune time…
Mrs. Olsen’s pupils contracted, and she looked at him in disbelief, “Are you the… Mmm!”

Taylor moved forward abruptly, covering Mrs. Olsen’s mouth with his hand. “Shirley, don’t say it!”
However, Mrs. Olsen’s eyes widened in shock as she struggled to push Taylor away, but he wouldn’t budge. She bit down on his fingers, finally making Taylor to let

Taylor gasped, looking at the bite marks and
bloodstains on the back of his hand, just about to say something when he heard Mrs. Olsen’s certain tone.
“It was you! you killed Keira!”
