My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

209 Mom

Keira ended the call and looked toward Lewis, her

eyes astonishingly bright after just shedding tears.

“Mrs. Olsen is awake.” ”

Lewis subconsciously turned to glance in the direction of the bedroom, hesitating, “I...”

“You stay here and take care of Grandma. I'll go back

and see her.”

Keira didn’t want to make it difficult for him and

simply left those words before walking out.

Lewis didn’t insist and said to Tom, “Take Keira there.”

Sitting in the car, Keira was extremely anxious. She, who always drove at a steady thirty miles per hour, now

wished the car could go faster.

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the hospital's inpatient building.

Just as Keira was about to run upstairs after getting out of the car, her steps faltered slightly, and she

instinctively glanced toward the parking lot.

She saw that the spot where Uncle Olsen’s car had

been parked was now empty

Presumably, Uncle Olsen had already returned to

Clance?

This thought merely flickered by, and Keira entered the building and sprinted to the third floor.

Standing breathlessly at the doorway, she saw Taylor both crying and laughing as he fed Mrs. Olsen water, while

Mrs. Olsen looked at him in resignation.

Hearing footsteps, Mrs. Olsen slightly turned her head, looking toward the door.

For a moment, their gazes locked.

Keira felt as if she were rooted to the spot, unable to

move.

She stared blankly at Mrs. Olsen.

Her emotions were indescribably tumultuous and

complex.

As a child, every tshe saw Mrs. Olsen speak gently to Isla, she was envious. She had often thought, how

wonderful would it be if Mrs. Olsen were her mother?

She had never imagined that one day this dream

would ctrue.

At this very moment, the look in Mrs. Olsen's eyes

carried sorrow, pity, and the stender warmth and deep affection she had for Isla!

Keira’s nose began to tingle again, and her eyes gradually filled with tears.

She wanted to say something, but her mouth opened and closed without knowing what to say that could express

her feelings at that moment...

As she struggled and even felt the situation was somewhat awkward, Mrs. Olsen suddenly smiled at

her. Her cheeks were flushed with a healthy red,

perhaps from having had a good sleep after just awakening.

She said softly, “Keira, why are you standing there?

Cover here...”

Keira couldn't restrain her emotions any longer and walked stiffly over, standing by her bed.

Mrs. Olsen pointed to the side of the bed, “Sit.”

Keira sat down like a puppet, still staring blankly at

Mrs. Olsen.

Everything in front of her felt like a dream...

Happiness had ctoo fast, overwhelming her after 22 years of misery.

As she pondered what to say, Mrs. Olsen spoke first. “Keira, | need to start by saying I'm sorry to you.”

Keira was startled. “Why?”

“| failed to protect you, and you were secretly swapped at birth. Even though you were always in front of me, |

couldn't recognize you. | watched you getting suppressed and insulted...”

Mrs. Olsen's voice was choked with emotion. “Keira, | don’t ask for your forgiveness. | just want to say,

everything is my fault.”

Mother...

Keira’s tears, having just been suppressed, began flowing again. She suddenly stepped forward and hugged Mrs.

Olsen tightly. “I've never blamed you. I— I'm so happy. You have no idea how delighted | was when | found out

I'm your daughter...”

Mrs. Olsen, however, started to cry. “Silly girl, are you still calling‘Mrs. Olsen’ now?”

Keira hesitated, then opened her mouth and called

out, “Mom.”

“I'm here.”

Hearing her reply, Keira felt it was surreal, fearing everything in front of her was but a bubble. So, she said softly

again, “Mom?”

“I'm here.”

Keira tightened her grip and called her again. “Mom...”

“I'm here.”

Keira suddenly felt very sad.

She felt aggrieved for the past 22 years. Her nose tingled, and as she was about to say something more, Taylor

said, “Keira, your mom just woke up. We shouldn't get too emotional...”

Keira then subdued her own emotions.

She quickly wiped away her tears, stepped back from Mrs. Olsen, and then looked at her with a smile, “Are you

alright?”

Mrs. Olsen, seeing her red-rimmed eyes, reached out to touch her face. “I'm fine. | just couldn't help feeling

emotional when | thought of all the hardships you endured... | never imagined Poppy Hill would be such a

person! | shouldn't have been kind-hearted at that moment, to have wronged my own daughter!”

As Mrs. Olsen said this, she coughed.

Taylor immediately started gently patting her back. “Alright, alright, Shirley, don’t be upset. She has now

received the retribution she deserves! | heard her legs

were both broken, and one of her arms was fractured,

too. She'll rot in the hospital for the rest of her life, never to escape!”

When Keira heard this, she looked toward Mrs. Olsen.

“Mom, there's also Isla...”

She hesitated, not knowing how to convey Isla’s fate as Mrs. Olsen had raised Isla for so many years and truly

loved her.

At her words, Mrs. Olsen’s eyes did soften a bit.

But she quickly regained her composure. “Your dad already toldher fate. She took the wrong path herself. At

this point, nobody else is to blame!”

Mrs. Olsen said this and then lowered her head to

cough again.

Seeing this, Taylor hurriedly brought her swater.

After Mrs. Olsen took a couple of sips, she couldn't help but look at him. “Taylor, go hand rest. You've been

up for so long. You'll get sick.”

But Taylor shook his head, “Shirley, I'm not going. | want to stay with you all the time!”

Mrs. Olsen gave a wry smile. “Staying here? You didn’t take a shower yesterday, did you? You smell a little...”

The weather in Oceanion was humid and hot, and Taylor felt sticky without taking a shower.

Upon hearing this, Taylor immediately sniffed himself, then took a step back. “Then, I'll go hfor a shower

and cback to keep you company.”

He stood up to leave.

Mrs. Olsen added. “Ask Aunt South to make something mild for you. You need to eat, and bring the rest with you

when you cback.”

Taylor nodded and then reluctantly left the room.

His demeanor was as if he were part of a newlywed couple, making Keira feel almost embarrassed to

watch.

After Taylor left the ward, Mrs. Olsen took Keira’s hand. “Keira, please don’t be angry with Taylor, okay? All these

years, he truly believed Isla was my daughter, which was why he neglected you...”

Keira cast her eyes down. “I don’t blhim, but | don’t feel anything for him.”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Olsen didn’t insist. “Oh well, you two have no connections, and besides, he’s not your

father.”

As Mrs. Olsen brought up this point, Keira took the opportunity to ask, “Mom, then who is my biological

father? Is it Uncle Olsen?”
