My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire?

Chapter 458

Austin asked anxiously, “What is it?” a

Lady Gill frowned, and after a long pause, she finally said, “Before we got here, many people must have left the hospital. Did she leave already?”

Austin immediately said, “There’s surveillance at the entrance. We’ll have someone check the footage from that time!”

Lady Gill laughed bitterly, “This hospital department has several entrances and exits. Searching will probably take time.”

Austin became anxious, “But we still have to check!”

Lady Gill looked at him. “Of course, we will check!

What are you so anxious about?”

Austin then lowered his head. “Because we finally got news about my little sister.”

Lady Gill didn’t know why, but she suddenly thought of Keira and that girl named Nara…

She suddenly frowned, feeling confident that Nara wasn’t her daughter, but still, she reminded Austin.

“Don’t bully girls like the one we just saw ever again! Understand?”

Austin pouted. “I have never bullied her, okay? What’s the point of bullying girls who come from nothing and have no power to fight back? I only did that because she caused Jackson’s injury…

…

The hospital was a mess, as they nearly turned the inpatient department upside down during their search. Keira and Lewis drove back to the South residence.

“Having caused such a scene with the Gill family, how can we still cooperate with them?”

Keira was a bit worried. “If the cooperation doesn’t succeed, I won’t be able to complete the task the South family gave me, and then I can’t save my mom…”

Lewis’s eyes darkened. “I’ll think of a way.”

If it came down to it, he would resort to special

measures!

He would acquire the Gill family and then cooperate with Keira.

Keira glanced at him sidelong. “Since the Horton family moved to Clance, you haven’t been home yet, have you? Should you visit them sometime, lest the second branch take over Horton Group?”

Lewis’s gaze dropped, and a chill flashed through h eyes. “If they want it, let them have it. We’ll see if the have the ability to keep it! Do they think I want to take over the Horton Group if it wasn’t for Grandma?”

The little Horton Group was not what he wanted at all.

Keira paused slightly upon hearing this. “What did you say?”

A flicker passed through Lewis’s eyes. “Nothing.”

Keira was about to press further when she saw a familiar car stop in front of her house.

Keira raised her eyebrows, opened the door, and got out; sure enough, in the courtyard, she saw Ellis.

The sky had already darkened.

Ellis wore a black suit, standing quietly as if blending into the darkness; if one didn’t look carefully, he was barely noticeable.

It seemed he heard footsteps because he slowly

turned his head. Upon seeing Keira, his eyes turned

indifferent once again as he continued to look toward

the entrance.

He lit a cigarette and looked up at a certain windo the second floor.

That was Mary’s room.

Keira couldn’t help but say, “Ellis, go back. Mary won’t see you.”

“I know.”

Ellis said indifferently, “I just want to be here with her.”

Keira didn’t know what to say.

She walked up to Ellis, looked at him earnestly, and said, “Ellis, have you ever heard a saying?”

“What?”

“Belated affection is worthless.”

…

Ellis froze and stiffened.

Then, he cast his eyes down and said no more.

After Keira finished her mocking, she went straight

into the house.

If it hadn’t been for her and Lewis’s timely discovery of Ellis’s actions, Mary’s child would have been gone by

now!

He attempted to murder the baby; there was nothing to argue about.

Mary would never forgive him.

After Keira entered the living room, Lewis followed

her, pausing briefly as he passed by Ellis.

Then he cleared his throat. “I warned you before. I told you the child was yours.

Ellis gave a bitter smile, offering no further explanation.

Lewis entered the living room just in time to see Keira fuming as she sat at the dining table.

He washed his hands and walked over to sit beside her.

After picking up a piece of spare rib for Keira, he said thoughtfully, “Actually, Ellis did three tests…”

Keira paused, then looked at him with sharp eyes. “So

what?”

Lewis coughed, and the idea of speaking on Ellis’s behalf evaporated upon meeting her gaze.

It is better to let sleeping dogs lie than create a rift between Keira and himself because of Ellis’s affairs.

So, he quickly changed the subject. “All three tests pointed to azoospermia, which suggests a problem. Do you think it could be related to the South family?”

His words made Keira slightly startled. “Why would you say that?”

Seeing she no longer pursued his previous remarks, Lewis coughed again. “Because the first task the South- family wanted you to do to cooperate with the five major families was to have Ellis marry Mary. Ellis has remained unmarried all these years because of the azoospermia. It’s as if they were, increasing the difficulty of your task?”

Keira was perplexed.

She stroked her chin, suddenly finding the idea entirely plausible!

Lewis quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

But just as he relaxed, he heard Keira ask sardonically, “So what you’re saying is, Ellis did what he did because

of his condition? Then do you think Mary should forgive him?”

Lewis was dumbfounded.

How did the topic circle back again?

He coughed.

Then he immediately shook his head. “Of course, she can’t forgive him yet! Even if Ellis was deceived, he should have trusted Mary. If it were you, I would have trusted you without hesitation.” 2

He showed his stance and picked a side, and now everything should be fine, right?

When Lewis thought of this, he heard Keira say, “What

do you mean she can’t forgive him yet?”

Lewis was speechless.

While the two were talking, Mary had already come downstairs.

Keira abruptly ended the topic, effectively saving Lewis’s life.

Mary sat at the dining table, eating her meal absentmindedly.

Her gaze kept falling on the front gate.

She knew Ellis was outside.

But she still quickly withdrew her gaze and contin her meal.

Keira curled her lips. “Mary, ignore him. He has done something wrong, and he must pay the price! If he stands outside and refuses to leave, it would be best if a bolt of lightning struck him dead!”

Immediately after that, a streak of lightning flashed…

Keira was dumbfounded.

Almost subconsciously, she looked outside,

half-expecting her words to come true, only to see Ellis unharmed. It was just her wishful thinking.

But soon, the downpour began.

In seconds, Ellis was drenched, looking like a drowned
