Lewis's eyes were filled with urgency.”
When the girl visited the hospital, he was immersed in his pain and grief, not noticing her.
What puzzled him further was why, if Keira was still alive, she wouldn't cto acknowledge him...
But today, he ran into her again here.
Her concern for Mrs. Olsen was beyond ordinary; even if she claimed to have been sent by Uncle Olsen, the
understanding they shared just now made him suspect
she was Keira!
And then there was the familiar figure...
He didn’t want to hear her excuses; he just wanted to
see if that face beneath the mask was the one he
yearned for in his dreams!
Unfortunately, his fingers barely touched her before
perceptive Keira stepped back.
Keira’s voice was subconsciously cold. “Mr. Horton, please show sself-respect!”

That voice...
Lewis's eyes suddenly reddened. “Keira!”
Keira paused momentarily.
Had he really suspected her and recognized her?
Before she could speak, Lewis blurted out anxiously, “Why don’t you chome?”
Keira frowned.”Mr. Horton, | don’t know what you're talking about...”
“You...”
Just as Lewis wanted to say more, a voice suddenly interrupted him. “Keera!”
Both turned their heads to see Howard holding Amy as they walked down from a nearby car, his gaze hostile as
he scolded Lewis. “Who is this? What are you pulling
at each other for here?”
Keira raised an eyebrow but said nothing.
Lewis looked at him, puzzled.
Howard marched directly in front of Keira. “You, a married woman, are behaving so intimately with
another man; what kind of behavior is this? Who is he?

You must explain yourself totoday!”
Howard’s mother also approached from the car. “Exactly, Keera, you seem like a decent housewife usually, but
who knew you'd be so flirtatious in
private? Your face isn’t even healed, and here you are seducing another man. How could you do this to my
son?”
Lewis was baffled by the couple’s accusations.
Keira feigned a vulnerable, aggrieved demeanor, “Howard, Mom, | didn’t...”
“How could you not? We saw everything! You were pulling at each other, nearly embracing! And now you say it
didn’t happen, how shameless can you be!”
Howard’s mother shoved Keira forcefully and snatched Amy from Howard's arms, scoffing. “Damaged goods,
see? Your mother is so lowly; don’t you dare grow up
to be like her!”
Amy, not understanding these words, stared

Keira stepped forward, snatching Amy from Howard's mother. “It’s not like that. he said | looked like a thief

sneaking around with a mask on, and he toldto
take it off...”
Howard finally asked, “Really?”
Keira, seemingly afraid he wouldn't believe her, immediately nodded, “It’s true...”
Then, she looked toward Lewis. “Mr. Horton, could you please clear this up quickly? Otherwise, my husband and
mother-in-law might misunderstand...”
Lewis gazed at them, dumbfounded.
The woman was wearing the mask and cap, her expression obscured, but Howard and his mother, and even the
two-year-old child, didn’t seem to be lying.
So, this woman wasn’t Keira?
Of course...
The DNA matched the body, which was still at home, and he had been the one refusing to believe or face the
truth, forever in denial...
Upon closer inspection, Howard realized that even without speaking, Lewis looked a bit dazed as if he wasn’t the
sharpest tool in the shed, yet his demeanor was undeniably distinguished.

Moreover, to be able to live in this community, he must belong to the smaller circles of Oceanion’s elite...
Howard's tone softened slightly. “My wife's face is injured and covered in iodine, which can’t be washed off right
now; she’s not presentable, and that’s why she’s wearing a mask. Don’t take any offense, sir.”
Lewis looked back at Keira again.
Covered in iodine...
Indeed, there was a hint of yellow on the skin that was
exposed beside her mask.
Was that theason s was wearing it?

rich playboy; he would never be interested in you!”
Knowing Keera’s personality, Keira knew she would surely beg pitifully and desperately, trying to clarify
that she had no such intentions.
Howard hadn’t expected the woman who had just shown weakness in front of him to simply glance at him
indifferently and then turn around, holding the child and getting into the car.
Howard felt a chill in the depths of his heart from that glance, and then he sneered.
“This Keera is always so mysterious. Who knows what
she’s up to now!”
The group drove to the hotel.
Keira was still pondering how to bring up the topic of sleeping with Amy that night and making Howard leave,
when Howard said, “You take care of Amy tonight. I'll sleep in Mom's room.”
Keira was surprised.
She had certainly heard when they were checking in
that Howard had booked two double rooms!
He's going to share a room with his mom?!

Her hesitant expression made Howard's mother snicker, and with a slight lift of her chin, she said,
“What are you looking at? At home, Howard always sleeps with me. How cat the hotel, he is supposed
to sleep with you?”
Keira was shocked
Howard said with a sneer that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Keera, my father passed away early. Since | was a
child, I've always been sharing a room with my mom. Don’t make a scene like you do at home. Otherwise, it
would be too embarrassing!”
Keira felt that there was something indefinably amiss
about the mother and son before her.
She picked up Amy and headed straight for the other hotel room.
Having never cared for children before, Keira looked up information online, only to find that Amy was surprisingly
easy to take care of. She was
extraordinarily well-behaved, not crying or fussing, and at the age of two, she could already bathe herself
with a towel.

Once her milk was prepared she would take the bottle to bed herself. Then, with a light pat on her own bottom,
she would [ull herself to sleep.
Watching her, Keira’'s heart melted.
The more well-behaved Amy was, the clearer it becthat she must have suffered a great deal at home
before.
It wouldn’t happen again...
With her around, she would absolutely not let Amy
suffer any longer!
Keira lay down on the bed and soon started tossing and turning, her thoughts returning to Mrs. Olsen whom she
saw at the Olsen family today. For sreason, she always felt that her mother’s deep sleep was a bit strange
this time.
Even her brows were deeply furrowed.
Keira didn’t sleep well at all that night, overly worried
about Mrs. Olsen.
Dawn arrived soon, and today was the day Mrs.
Horton's remains were to be cremated and laid to rest.

Taylor sent Aunt South away to help Mrs. Olsen pack her things.

Mrs. Olsen’s body was metabolizing the medication, and she was gaining sstrength. She watched Taylor
approaching with a syringe, her pupils constricting, “No...”
“There, there, Shirley, just take the injection peacefully, and I'll take you to see Keira,” he said gently, though his
tone was devilish, causing Mrs. Olsen to shake her head, her eyes pleading...
Taylor stood in front of her, looking at her with an expression of reluctance. “Just bear with it a little longer...
After today, I'll take you away, and we won't need this medication anymore, alright?”
His eyes were tender but sent a chill down Mrs. Olsen’s spine!
Taylor then mercilessly injected the contents of the syringe into her arm...
The cold liquid entered her body, and Mrs. Olsen, already weak, now felt even more powerless...
Her eyes reddening, she stared fixedly at Taylor.

Taylor touched her face and kissed her lips, “Shirley, you are finally completely mine...”
His hand slowly moved down her body, abruptly seizing her leg...
Desire burned in the man’s eyes, and his breathing suddenly grew ragged.
A tear slid down Mrs. Olsen's cheek.
Taylor paused when he saw it, gently wiping away her tears. “You still don’t want to be mine? Shirley, when will
you accept me...”
No sooner had these words fallen than his hand
forcefully gripped her chin, forcing her to look up at him. He then fiercely biting her shoulder!
“Ugh!”
The pain caused Mrs. Olsen to cry out.
Outside, Aunt South's voice suddenly could be heard, “Mr. Olsen, Mrs. Olsen, everything has been placed in the
car.”
Mrs. Olsen looked at Taylor with a pleading gaze.
Taylor smiled, patting her face, “Let’s go see Keira first.

After we cback, I'll have you tonight...”
Mrs. Olsen trembled all over
Her fists clenched tightly as if she could not bear the indignity.
Seeing this, Taylor just smiled and picked her up to
take her outside.
He didn’t notice the piece of paper tightly clenched in Mrs. Olsen's palm.
