My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！ - Chapter 485

485  Chapter 484
Keira was about to greet old Mrs. Horton when suddenly a beeping tone came from the phone.
She paused slightly and then realized that old Mrs. Horton had hung up.
She was speechless.
Lewis couldn’t help but smile ruefully. “Grandma only acknowledges one granddaughter-in-law, and there’s nothing we can do about it.”
Keira shook her head.
Lewis also had no intention of calling back.
Discussing these matters over the phone was too risky; if the mobile phone was monitored, Keira’s identity would be exposed.
For now, she still needed to maintain her sister’s identity to try and save her mother.
Lewis, of course, wouldn’t expose her identity in public.
Keira said, “Let’s visit Grandma another day.”
“There’s no need to wait for another day,” said Lewis, his eyes cast down. “There’s a banquet at the Horton residence in a few days. It’s the first banquet since my arrival in Clance, so it’s also our first appearance. The Horton family views it as important and has already sent invitations to all the major families. You, as my fiancée, have to attend as well.”
Upon hearing this, Keira turned to look at Lewis. “A banquet? Under what pretext is it being held?”
As soon as she asked, Lewis’s expression stiffened slightly.
He coughed, turned his head to the side, and suddenly turned his back on Keira. “There’s no particular reason; it’s just a casual event.”
Of course, it was held in the name of his birthday!
But Keira didn’t seem to care about him, probably not even remembering his birthday!
Lewis felt somewhat gloomy.
Although he understood she was under a lot of pressure recently, carrying a heavy burden, it still bothered him that she didn’t remember his birthday… Lewis knew he shouldn’t be upset over such a trivial matter.
But he just couldn’t help it.
Seeing him turn his back, Keira didn’t think much of it and simply said, “It’s fine to have a banquet without any particular reason… Okay then, let’s go to bed.”
And then there was silence.
Lewis was perplexed.
He slowly turned around to find that Keira had already fallen asleep.
Her face was buried into the pillow, her lengthy hair spread across the entire surface, giving her a docile look with her eyes closed.
Yet the mole at the corner of her eye exuded an innocent charm.
Lewis was utterly enchanted by her.

He watched her quietly and, in the end, could only let out a helpless sigh and closed his eyes.
That night, he had trouble sleeping and even dreamed Keira had dragged him shopping for clothes for Amy. However, when they got to the mall, she suddenly handed him a birthday gift: “Here, happy birthday. This is for you.”
In the dream, the smile never left his face.
Unfortunately, when the first rays of dawn shone on his face, Lewis woke up to realize it was just a beautiful dream.
He watched the ceiling quietly and turned to the still-sleeping woman beside him, suddenly breaking into a resigned smile.
Keira had been so busy lately, her mind occupied with completing the South family’s task and rescuing her mother. How could she possibly remember his birthday?
He was expecting too much.
How could he be upset with her over such a minor issue?
The man who had sulked all night long thus talked himself out of his mood.
…
After breakfast.
Keira suddenly said, “The collaboration with the Gill family is complete, and today, we’re just waiting for the contract signing and their new feedback. Why don’t we go shopping instead of waiting around at home?”
Her words made Lewis’s eyes light up slightly.
He suddenly looked up at Keira but couldn’t read any expression on her calm face.
Did she remember?
Or was it just a casual invitation to go shopping?
Lewis cleared his throat. “What are we shopping for?”
Keira said, “It doesn’t necessarily have to be for anything specific. We’ll just look around.”
Just browsing around, indeed!
Lewis put on a slight smile. “Sure!”
After breakfast, the two let the nanny stay at home with Amy and told Mary to rest well before they left the house.
There was no sign of Ellis at the doorway.
However, when leaving the residential area, Keira vaguely saw Ellis’s car hidden in an inconspicuous corner.
The car windows were tinted, allowing someone inside to see out but preventing those outside from seeing the person in the car. Therefore, she couldn’t tell if Ellis was there.
Keira asked, “Is Ellis still having a fever?”
Ellis had stood in the rain all night and got a fever by the afternoon. James had even come to see her because of this.
Lewis answered, “His temperature went down last night.”
He also glanced at Ellis’s car and suddenly wondered if Mary would eventually forgive Ellis.
While he was lost in thought, they arrived at the shopping mall.

Clance’s largest luxury mall was located within the third zone, and its parking garage was full of expensive cars.
After parking their car, they went upstairs together.
Lewis watched Keira, trying to deduce from her few words whether she knew that his birthday was the day after tomorrow.
Unfortunately, she seemed indifferent while shopping, showing no sign of knowing.
Lewis decided not to guess anymore and to wait for the final surprise.
Keira shopped without much purpose, popping into stores that piqued her interest, and ended up buying two hair clips for Amy.
She didn’t find anything exciting.
The two then wandered into a Cartier boutique…
“There should be something here that would make a good gift for me, like cufflinks…”
Lewis thought this to himself, only to see Keira casually browse for a while and then seem uninterested as she walked out.
Lewis was perplexed.
He immediately grabbed Keira. “You didn’t see anything you like?”
“This place is all jewelry. After looking around, I didn’t find anything I liked.”
Keira then added. “I usually don’t like to wear jewelry; it feels too much.”
Lewis didn’t know what to say.
So Keira didn’t plan to buy anything for him?
It seemed that her trip to the mall today was just window shopping!
Lewis’s lips twitched, and he felt slightly frustrated. He was about to say something else when a voice rang out. “Bring me all the jewelry suitable for young women, one of each!”
Keira turned her head and saw Austin shopping with a manager. He was empty-handed when he said those words and immediately handed over a bank card. “After packing everything, send it to my house.”
The manager was delighted but asked, “Mr. Gill, who are you buying for? Has she bought any of our new styles this year? You don’t want to purchase anything she already has.”
Austin replied, “I’m buying for my sister. She has no jewelry, so that won’t be a problem.”
The manager was immediately excited. “You found your sister?”
Austin nodded, the usually haughty man somewhat tense now. “Do you think my sister will like these?”
The manager assured him, “All girls are sure to like jewelry.”
Austin nodded. “Right, she definitely will. Okay, pack these up, and I’m going upstairs to pick out more for her.”
After Austin said this and turned to leave, he caught sight of Keira and Lewis.
Upon seeing Lewis’s stern face again, Austin remembered the pain of being tortured by that man, and his expression soured. “Miss Olsen, are you shopping with a gigolo?”
Keira raised an eyebrow.
Lewis didn’t say anything but just looked at him.
Under that gaze, Austin coughed and then stepped forward. “Miss Olsen, look, I’m reminding you of gratitude for saving my sister. You should end it with this gigolo already!”
Keira asked, “Why?”
Austin scoffed. “Aren’t you engaged to the Horton family? This gigolo might be ruthless, but how could he be a match for Lewis Horton? You’re just playing around with him, right? Better to break it off quickly to not embarrass the Horton family…”
Before he could finish, Keira chuckled. “And do you know what his name is?”novelbin
