My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！ - Chapter 672

672  Chapter 671

It was Keira Olsen!

Jake’s pupils shrank in shock.

He couldn’t believe what he was seeing. For a brief moment, it felt like the light in his life had returned!

He swallowed hard, his eyes locked onto Keira’s, focusing on a faint spot near the corner of her eye.

There, under a subtle layer of concealer, was the unmistakable shadow of a small black beauty mark.

Jake’s eyes welled up instantly.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but no words came out. He could only stand there, staring blankly at Keira, lost in a daze.

She’s alive…

She’s really alive!

Thank God!

Even if she was now his aunt, as long as she was still breathing, as long as she could find happiness, that was all that mattered.

Tears blurred Jake’s vision, and he quickly wiped them away. Keira’s face came back into focus, clear as day.

Was this really not a dream?

In a panic, Jake pinched his arm. It was real!

He looked at Keira with joy, wanting to call out her name, but then it hit him—after everything he’d put her through, what right did he have?

He stayed silent, but Keira’s eyes bore into him. “What’s the matter? Do you really want to marry Eve Clark?”

Oliver quickly stepped forward, trying to take control. “Miss Olsen, I’ve already made it clear—my son listens to me! You’d better watch what you say, or don’t blame me if I get tough!”

Nathan napped, “What’s your angle? You don’t want Jake to marry Eve? Are you angling for Lewis to marry her instead? I see what’s going on—you’re afraid that if Jake marries Eve, he’ll outshine Lewis, huh?”

Then he turned to look at old Mrs. Horton and Lewis. “Look at this—she’s not even part of this family yet, and she’s already meddling in our affairs! Eve’s a great girl. Why wouldn’t Jake want to marry her? He’s eager to get that ring on her finger!”

But just as he finished his sentence, a low, choked voice suddenly cut through the air. “That’s right.” Nôv(el)B\jnn

Everyone froze, turning to look at Jake.

His eyes were misty, his nose red, his whole body trembling with emotion. Like a child, he wiped away his tears and then looked straight at Keira.

Nathan let out a cold laugh. “You heard him, right? Jake agrees with me!”

Oliver chimed in, “Of course, my son listens to us. Eve’s got a big name in Clance; every family wants her! We’re lucky she’s willing to marry Jake and doesn’t care that he’s been married before.”

Oliver smiled, satisfied. “Jake, once you marry Eve, make sure you treat her well and listen to what she says! Don’t be like your uncle, always clashing with the family!”

Jake stood there in a daze.

Slowly, he spoke, enunciating each word. “I said, Keera’s right.”

He pointed at Keira.

The smiles vanished from Nathan and Oliver’s faces as they stared at Jake in disbelief.

Oliver’s expression darkened with rage. “What did you just say? You ungrateful brat! Say that again!”

In the past, Jake would’ve cowered in fear at that look on his father’s face. Every time his dad got that angry, he’d run off to be with that other woman, leaving Jake and his mother behind.

But this time, Jake turned to Keira.

Her words echoed in his mind…

“What do you really want?”

What did he want?

The Keira Olsen he wanted was gone, out of reach. But beyond her, what did he have left?

He wanted a father who stayed home, who treated his mother with respect, who didn’t have a mistress or a secret daughter…

But all of that seemed like a cruel joke.

It wasn’t coming back.

So, what did he want now?

Jake looked between Keira, Nathan, and Oliver.

Seeing the anger on the two men’s faces, something suddenly clicked.

Jake met their eyes and spoke with determination. “I said, I don’t want to marry Eve Clark! I’m not some puppet on strings—I’m my own person!”

The room went dead silent.

Oliver erupted in fury. “Looks like you’re itching for a beating! This is final—there’s no way around it!”

But Jake didn’t back down, his voice firm and resolute. “Dad, I already told you—I don’t agree! I’m an adult now. You can’t control my life anymore!”

Oliver was speechless.

He swung a hand to slap Jake, but his usually obedient son caught his wrist in mid-air.

At that moment, Oliver realized with shock that Jake’s grip was stronger than his own!

He stood there, stunned.

Nathan turned his fury on Keira, shouting, “What have you done to Jake? You troublemaker!”

With that, he grabbed his cane and swung it at Keira.
