Old Mrs. Horton suddenly jolted, her hands trembling as she pointed at Keera. Tears welled up in her eyes, and her lips quivered. She was unable to speak a word. Even Fiona, who was by Old Mrs. Hortons side, was stunned, staring at Keira. Their reactions were so extreme that the surrounding audience noticed something was wrong and looked toward them, whispering among themselves. Whats wrong with old Mrs. Horton? What could it be? She must be furious. After all, the rumor that Miss Olsen has kept a gigolo has been spreading like wildfire! 17 496 Chapter 495 Indeed, Miss Olsen is in the wrong.
