My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire! - Chapter 666
666 Chapter 665
Keira was at a loss for words. Was Erin actually standing up for her just to pull something like this?
This woman was really something else…
Keira couldn’t help but twitch her lips as she noticed Erin casually munching on pistachios, her eyes wide and watching Keira. When Erin realized Keira was looking her way, she blinked at her innocently.
It was as if she hadn’t been the one stirring up trouble just a moment ago.
Taking a deep breath to steady herself, Keira shifted her focus back to Selena and Eve.
As expected, Eve frowned and gave Keira a scrutinizing look. “You’re telling me *you’re N, the philanthropist?”
Keira was about to respond when Erin’s cheerful voice cut in, “Yep, that’s her, Miss Olsen!”
Keira clenched her teeth in frustration. Selena scoffed. “Miss Olsen, Eve here is a legitimate philanthropist, and now you’re claiming to be N? That’s just ridiculous! N started their charity work five years ago. And you? If I recall correctly, you only got divorced this year.”
Eve added, “I’ve been to countless award ceremonies and charity events, but I don’t ever recall seeing you at any of them, Miss Olsen.”
Selena sneered. “Of course, you haven’t seen her. Some people just love to impersonate others and brag without thinking.”
Erin interjected with a smirk, “Who says we’re bragging? You two just wait—you’re about to get a reality check!”
Keira was speechless.
She shot Erin a sharp glare. “Do you ever know when to stop?”
Erin immediately put on a hurt expression. “Cousin, I just didn’t want to see you get treated unfairly!”
Keira was taken aback.
Selena quickly jumped on the opportunity. “So lying is your way of protecting her? And making up nonsense about being N? N would never support a spy! After what she’s done, her reputation is in ruins, and the Olsen family is already paying the price for her actions! We can’t let the Horton family get dragged down with them!”
Lewis’s older brother, Oliver, decided to weigh in. “Exactly! Lewis, Selena’s just looking out for you. Marrying Eve would be nothing but beneficial for you!”
Lewis let out a dry laugh. “No, thanks.”
Oliver, clearly frustrated, pushed further. “So you’re really set on Miss Olsen? You’re being so stubborn! Every time, you just go ahead and make these marriage decisions on your own…”
Their father, Nathan, finally snapped. “You ungrateful son! Are you trying to kill me with a heart attack?”
Lewis looked at him calmly. “Not exactly. But if you’re that eager to die, I won’t stop you.”
“You…!”
Eve quickly stepped in, trying to defuse the situation. “Lewis, you shouldn’t speak to your father like that. He’s still your dad, after all. And Lewis, I’ve spoken with Selena. I know there are tensions between your side of the family and the main branch, but it’s okay. I’ll help smooth things over between everyone… We’re all family, after all. Blood is thicker than water…”
As soon as Eve said that, Lewis’s expression grew darker, his patience clearly wearing thin.
Keira couldn’t hold back a derisive laugh.
Eve immediately turned to her, eyes narrowing. “Miss Olsen, what’s so funny? Am I wrong? They’re all Hortons here. We share the same blood. I’m sure old Mrs. Horton would love to see the two branches getting along, wouldn’t she? Do you think she’d want to see them at each other’s throats?”
Keira let out a cold laugh. “Some family members are true family, while others are worse than enemies. It’s easy for you to preach when you’re not the one dealing with it.”
Eve’s eyes narrowed. “Miss Olsen, treating others kindly is the key to being treated kindly yourself. If you keep butting heads with everyone, all you’ll get is criticism. Why not soften your approach? It would make it easier for everyone to get along, wouldn’t it?”
Before Keira could respond, Lewis interjected coldly, “Ms. Clark, my family’s affairs are none of your concern. My wife and I don’t need anyone telling us how to live our lives.”
After saying this, he turned to the butler. “Show her out!”
The butler immediately stepped forward and stood beside Eve.
Eve’s expression changed, but she sighed deeply. “Lewis, I’m only thinking of what’s best for you. As the saying goes, ‘A good wife makes a prosperous home.’ I think Miss Olsen has influenced you for the worse, making you selfish and impatient with both family and friends!”
Selena chimed in, “Uncle Lewis, Eve is a philanthropist with a kind heart. She’s far better than Miss Olsen in every way. How could you choose her instead?” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Before Lewis could respond, Keira stepped forward and sneered. “Do you even know who I am?”
Selena retorted, “Didn’t you just say? You’re claiming to be N, but do you really think we’ll believe that? Unless you can prove it!”
Keira’s voice was icy as she replied, “Fine, I’ll show you. Keep your eyes wide open and see for yourselves!”
