116 Confession Isla screamed in rage, knowing that Mrs. Olsen had an extraordinary background and could definitely help her settle this matter. Just like the Allen family from Clance
The eminent Allen family of Clance was one the Horton family didnt wish to offend easily, yet Mr. Allen had been very courteous to Mrs. Olsen.
Watching her, Isla cried out, Mom, know you can do it! Help me just one more time, one last time Mrs. Olsen looked at her frenzied daughter, a flicker of
disappointment flashed through her eyes.
She appeared weak but had always been strong-willed
otherwise, she wouldnt have come this far.
Mrs. Olsen let out a bitter laugh, her weakened legs gradually straightened, and her trembling body began to regain composure as she sneered, Then go ahead and jump!
Isla was stunned.
Mrs. Olsen looked down, This is the third floor. If you 17:47

jump, youll at most break some bones, and even if you have to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of your life, the Olsen family can provide for you!
Isla bit her lip in anger. Mom!
Taylor was also extremely surprised. Shirley! Dont say such angry words! Isla, dont be impulsive! We can talk this out. Come back here!
But Mrs. Olsen sneered. Taylor, my failure to raise our daughter has nothing to do with you. She wants glory and riches so much that she might as well jump!
Taylor wanted to say something, but in the next moment, he heard Islas roar. You dont care if end up crippled, but do you not care about the child Im carrying?!
Upon hearing that, Mrs. Olsen was dumbfound
What?
With tears in her eyes, Isla said, Im carrying Jake child. wont die from jumping here, but what abou this baby? Mrs. Olsens jaw tensed.
Crying, Isla pleaded. Mom, want to marry Jake, not

just for the sake of luxury, but for this child! beg you. dont want to be a single mother. dont want my child to be born without a father
Her words pierced Mrs. Olsens heart like a sharp knife. It was as if she saw her younger self
Taylors eyes flickered as he supported her. Shirley, dont be so cruel to the child Isla is still young. Its forgivable to make mistakes, as long as she corrects
them.
Isla knew she could only persuade Mrs. Olsen with a soft approach, so she cried harder. Mom, know what did was wrong. admit wooed Jake because was jealous of Keira because you always cared about But later, truly fell in love with Jake. dont want

But the gap between our family and the Hortons is too big. thought could use Dr. South as leverage to increase my bargaining power, but I didnt expect Dr. South would be Keira Jake thinks lied to him, but

Later, Jake started to treat me worse and worse, and could only cling to what could to keep his heart. Im not a bad person, Mom. Im sorry
Taylor also held Mrs. Olsens arm, Shirley, no matter what, Isla is your only daughter. You didnt send her back to Clance back then because you wanted her to have a simple life. How can you bear to see her like
this?! How could she bear it Of course, she couldnt.
Mrs. Olsens clenched fists slowly loosened, and eventually, she seemed a bit desolate. Her tone finally softened. Alright, Ill help you!
Isla was her daughter. She couldnt watch Isla die. After sending off the first branch of the family, Keira found breakfast rather enjoyable.
In the morning, Lewis busied himself at Horton Group catching up on recent work, but he rushed back by noon to have lunch with Keira and old Mrs. Horton.
In the afternoon. Keira held old Mrs. Hortons arm. 1247

accompanying her on a stroll around the manor.
The Horton residence was very large, and she accompanied old Mrs. Horton on a walk around it, which was also to help her sleep better at night. Considering her advanced age, it was always good to move her limbs, so she wouldnt seem so stiff.
As the two were strolling, they suddenly overheard several people whispering. Thats just shameless, after causing such a scandal, she dares to show up again
Mrs. Olsen has rarely been seen in public these past years, and seeing her today, she looks so pale. The madam didnt let her in, so she just stood outside the door. What if she falls seriously ill?
What can be done about it? She brought it on herself!
If were her, having raised such a daughter, woul have hidden myself away long ago; dont know what she was thinking, showing up at the Hortons. You have no idea, its so embarrassing

Keira was taken aback when she heard this and briskly approached them. Whom were you just talking about?
Were talking about Islas mom, Mrs. Olsen. She came with Isla to apologize, but the madam wouldnt see her, so she just stood outside and didnt leave.
Keiras pupils constricted. How could she do that with Mrs. Olsens frail health? She hurriedly looked at old Mrs. Horton, Grandma, you
Old Mrs. Horton just patted her arm. Go if you have something to do; Im fine. Ill have Fiona take me back. Fiona and a family doctor followed them on their w

It took Keira over ten minutes of running to reach the
entrance.

Just as she stepped out of the small gate within the large iron gates, she saw Mrs. Olsen, supported by Isla, standing at the entrance, coughing. It was a wide highway flanked by large lawns
Mrs. Olsen was allergic to grass seeds, and now her coughing made her complexion even worse.
Keira rushed over and pulled out the medicine she
7 always carried for Mrs. Olsen. Maam, take some
medicine first!
Mrs. Olsen nodded, took some water from the car, and after taking her medicine, she felt much better. Keira then asked, Maam, why go through this Is it really necessary?
She glanced at Isla.
Isla stood behind Mrs. Olsen, not hiding the hatred her eyes. She glared fiercely at Keira. Keira, if you truly care about my mom, speak up for me in front of old Mrs. Horton! Spare my mom from suffering here!
Mrs. Olsen immediately spoke up. Keira, this has nothing to do with you. You should go back! But Keira held her arm, How can your affairs have

Mrs. Olsen felt a warmth in her chest upon hearing
this.
She patted Keiras hand but ultimately sighed, Keira, although you are also Taylors daughter, Islas issue truly has nothing to do with you. Better not get involved in this matter. Please leave.
At these words, Keira paused slightly, her chest suddenly tightening. After a moment of silence, she suddenly spoke up. not Taylors daughter.
