122 Tip-off
Fiona immediately nodded, took out her mobile phone, and intended to go aside to make a call.
But a large hand reached over and snatched her phone
away.
Jake sneered, “Fiona, having this woman here is nothing but a calamity. She has been deceiving Great-grandma
all along. We're also considering the Horton family’s well-being. You don’t need to make that call. After we send
this person away, when my Uncle comes back tonight, I'll explain everything to him.”
Fiona frowned. “Mr. Jake, we should still wait for Mr. Lewis to cback and decide on this matter! After all, Miss
Olsen is a guest of him and old Mrs. Horton!”
“A guest? | see her as nothing but a shameless woman clinging to my uncle!”
Jake flatly said, “The photos of her and my uncle have already spread. This is very bad for the company’s image.
What I'm doing is for my uncle’s good.”

Old Mrs. Horton was so angry that her chest heaved. “Jake! You disobedient boy! I've said it. She's your uncle’s
wife; you can’t treat her like this!”
Jake cast his eyes down and said nothing.
Melissa had already hurried over, exchanged a glance with Isla, and the two quickly went to Old Mrs. Horton's
side, each taking an arm of her.
Isla said gently, “Great-grandma, it’s cold here. Let's get you back to your room first, so you don’t fall ill.”
Melissa also heaved a sigh. “Grandma, you are really confused. Lewis’s wife is studying abroad; she hasn't
returned. You mistook this Miss Olsen for someone
else!”
“I didn’t mistake her for anyone!”
Old Mrs. Horton struggled, refusing to leave.
Melissa was conscious of old Mrs. Horton's health an didn’t dare to be rough.
But Isla hated the old woman to her core. It was all
because of this damned old wretch that Keira was so
favored in the Horton family
Angered she pinched old Mrs. Horton hard.

Old Mrs. Horton cried out in shock, “Why are you pinching me?”
Isla feigned ignorance. “Great-grandma, | didn’t! You're mistaken again...”
Upon hearing this, Keira immediately looked toward Isla, bent down swiftly, and reached old Mrs. Horton. She
immediately grabbed Melissa by the arm, sending a shock through her hand and making her release old
Mrs. Horton.
Keira’s other hand then struck Isla’s face hard!
“Slap!”
Isla saw Keira charging over, thought of the past instances when she had been hit, and already had stepped back
to evade, but she didn’t expect tha
would still get struck.
Clenching her fists, she suddenly took a step back deliberately fell to the ground, “Keira, what are you doing?”
She then clutched her lower abdomen, “My belly...”
Jake instantly looked at her with concern.
Indeed lake had been tricked by Isla stago

and spent a night with her in a hotel. Hence, he truly believed that the child was his.
He bent down to help Isla up, then turned his furious
glare towards Keira, “You can speak without having to resort to violence, can’t you?”
Keira ignored him and checked on old Mrs. Horton, “Grandma, are you alright?”
Old Mrs. Horton rolled up her sleeve to reveal a bruise on her arm and complained with a sense of grievance.
“Granddaughter-in-law, she pinched me!”
Keira suddenly turned around, her gaze on Isla fierce.
That chilling look made even Jake feel as if a surge of lethal intent suddenly raced up his spine, sending a shiver
down his back.
He stepped back, looked at the surrounding securit guards, and ordered, “What are you dawdling for? G this
woman out of here now!”
“Let’s see who dares!”
Keira shouted fiercely, her piercing gaze directed at the security guards. “You don’t believe | am Lewis's

[e]
wife, and you don’t care about old Mrs. Horton's safety either?! If you dare to make a move and jostle the old
lady, Lewis won't let you off when he comes back!”
It wasn’t that she was afraid of them or afraid to engage physically; she was just worried that the scene might
distress old Mrs. Horton.
Sure enough, the security guards were frightened and, although they surrounded Keira, they dared not move.
Melissa stepped forward. “The family doctor said that the old Mrs. Horton is in good health. She's not that
fragile! Go on, throw this woman out for me!”
But those around her still hesitated and didn’t dare to
act.
They had all witnessed Lewis's methods!
When he returned to the country this year, Melissa, representing the first branch of the family, wanted to put
him in his place by intentionally having the kitche send him cold meals.
As a result, Lewis immediately took speople and smashed up the kitchen!
A few chefs and those helping in the kitchen were

injured, and afterward, they were never compensated and were fired under the pretext of neglecting their
duties.
To this day, those chefs were still unable to find work!
Moreover, Lewis wasn't just assertive at home, but also at the company. Anyone who dared to defy his orders
had been dealt with long ago.
These security guards knew very well who could be bullied and who couldn't!
Seeing they still hadn't made a move, Melissa shouted immediately, “If you don’t act now, I'll fire you! And don’t
worry, I'll take the blif anything happens!”
Hearing this, a few security guards stepped forward slowly encircling Keira and old Mrs. Horton but stil not laying
a hand on them due to their concern for old lady.
Seeing this, Isla immediately yelled, “Keira, old Mrs. Horton isn’t suited for this scene. If you really care about her
well-being, let Fiona take her back to her
room!”
Fiona, who was anxiously circling outside the crowd, quickly broke into the security circle upon hearing this

and supported old Mrs. Horton.
Keira urged her. “Grandma, you go back with Fiona.”
“I won't. | must protect my granddaughter-in-law!”
Old Mrs. Horton was very angry.
Fiona then spoke up, “Ma’am, my cell phone was taken away. If you cwith me, we can call the master using
the landline and let him cback!”
Old Mrs. Horton was taken aback.
Keira said, “Right, you go and spread the word quick.”
Indeed, the current scene had agitated old Mrs. Horton, and she seemed somewhat confused, “Right, | must find
that brat to save my granddaughter-in-law!”
Keira then patted her arm. “Grandma, then pleas
with Fiona.”
Fiona took the opportunity to steady Old Mrs. Hor and led her away.
Fiona also whispered, “Miss Olsen, a wise woman doesn’t fight when the odds are against her. You should leave
with them first, and I'll immediately call the master to help you!”

Keira lowered her eyes. “I understand. You two go
inside.”
