Mrs. Olsens gaze was sharp.
She seemed delicate and weak on the outside but was resilient and tough on the inside.
Taylor knew her too well. He immediately said, I have never considered her as my own daughter. Shirley, Ive told you before. In my heart, only your daughter is my daughter.
Mrs. Olsens jaw tightened. Is that so? she asked.
Taylor sighed. I was against letting them live with us from the start. You know that, dont you?
Only then did Mrs. Olsen nod.
Isla wasnt there to listen to the couples declaration of their true feelings. She cut to the chase. Mom, Keira has always listened to you. Please go talk to her. Shes now living at the Hortons, where the nannies look
down on her
Mrs. Olsen lowered her gaze
She had always been an open-minded parent.

Whether it was to Isla or Keira.
That was why she had never intended to intervene in Isla and Keiras marriages.
Isla had forced her hand. She had to use extreme
measures to help Isla join the Hortons, which had deeply disappointed her.
As for Keira
When she found out Keira was Dr. South, Mrs. Olsen felt joyous. A sense of achievement swelled in her as though her own daughter had come of age.
Now, one daughter had let her down, and
unexpectedly, the other had also done something
foolish.
Keira had always been a good kid; she couldnt have been so reckless. Was there perhaps a misunderstanding?
Indeed, Mrs. Olsen was becoming somewhat anxious. She thought for a moment, took out her phone, opened WhatsApp, and sent a message to Keira. Keira, youve been married for so long, and I still havent seen your husband. Bring him over for dinner when you
have the time

After sending the message, she lowered her head.
She wanted to see what kind of man Keiras husband
was.
If he was unreliable, then she would find a way to make them divorce and allow Keira to pursue a new
life.
If he was dependable, then she would persuade Keira to live together with him, as living apart from ones spouse is never good.
When Keira received the message, she had just
finished lunch with old Mrs. Horton.
After the commotion that morning, her spirits had been somewhat low. After lunch, old Mrs. Horton insisted on not taking a nap but stubbornly turned to
Lewis.
Brat, why didnt you explain to everyone today that my granddaughter-in-law is indeed your wife?
Keira looked up slightly upon hearing that, about to say something, when old Mrs. Horton anxiously asked, Are you considering divorcing my

granddaughter-in-law later?
Lewis paused for a moment. Of course not, Grandma, dont worry.
Old Mrs. Horton then looked at Keira,
Granddaughter-in-law, what about you?
Keira hesitated. Realizing that Lewiss gaze had also fallen on her, she finally spoke, I wont either.
Thats more like it!
Old Mrs. Horton grabbed Lewiss hand with one hand and Keiras with the other, holding their hands together before speaking earnestly. In this world, its difficult to find someone you like, and its equally hard to find someone who likes you. Finding mutual affection is even harder. Therefore, you must take responsibility for your future and not let go of each other easily.
Upon hearing these words, Keira instinctively looked
at Lewis.
Just as he looked up at her.
For a moment, their eyes met.
Keira sensitively caught a flash of uncertainty darting

through his eyes.
He still hadnt decided if he really wanted to be with
her.
This realization made Keira calm down, and she instinctively tried to withdraw her hand, but it was held tightly by his large, warm hand.
Keira looked up at him, only to see him clench his jaw.
She raised an eyebrow, signaling the man to offer an explanation.
Lewiss gaze flickered slightly before he looked away.
Old Mrs. Hortons words interrupted the silent questioning between them. Brat, Im asking you, do you like my granddaughter-in-law or not?
Keira turned to look at him.
Lewis hadnt expected the old lady to suddenly blu out such a question and hesitated, unsure how to respond.
A wave of disappointment suddenly swelled in Keiras
chest.
Was it all just her wishful thinking?

She clearly felt that Lewis was fond of her
She lowered her gaze, about to say something when Lewiss deep voice rang out. Yes.
Keira was slightly stunned.
Her heartbeat raced.
Old Mrs. Horton then turned to her,
Granddaughter-in-law, do you like
Before she could finish her sentence, Keira had already changed the subject. Grandma, its time for your nap.
Old Mrs. Horton paused mid-speech, then laughed. Okay, okay, Ill take my nap. My granddaughter-in-law is shy; I wont ask you anymore.
After that, she smiled and walked toward the bedroom, leaning on Fionas hand.
Once inside the door, the little old ladys confused state vanished, and her eyes became sharp. She pee through the peephole in the door. Fiona, theyve bot confessed their love to each other; they should be together soon, right?
Fiona didnt know what to say.

The two outside the door still felt somewhat awkward.

Dressed in a suit, Lewis stood tall and commanding, drawing attention wherever he was. His superior appearance, together with his appropriate
conversation, made it difficult for Keira not to like him.
She dared not look into Lewis Hortons eyes and coughed lightly before asking, Did you say that just to please Grandma?
Lewis clenched his jaw slightly, No.
Keira nodded, her gaze a little unfocused.
At that moment, her phone rang.
Keira picked it up to see a message from Mrs. Olsen. After reading the content, she raised her eyebrows slightly.
Lewis Horton inquired, What is it?
Keira Olsen handed him the message to read. Isla must have gone home to tattle. Mrs. Olsen is worried I
really became your lover, so she plans to ask me to
come home for a chat!
Lewis laughed. So will you go back?

As Keira was replying to the message, she said, Ill go back and have a look. Mrs. Olsen fainted yesterday, so Im a little concerned.
Alright, Lewis smiled. Then Ill go with you.
Keira Olsen suddenly looked up, incredulously, What?
I said I would go with you, Lewis replied with a smile in his eyes. Didnt she tell you to introduce your husband to her? Whats the matter, you dont want to bring one?
Keira was surprised.
Well, that wasnt the case!
She took a step back in silence, swallowed hard, and then cleared her throat. Alright then, Ill reply to her
message.
Lewis continued. Alright, Ill have someone prepare some gifts. You regard Mrs. Olsen as your mother, so when I visit my mother-in-law, I cant come empty-handed.
Mother-in-law
Keiras cheeks flushed even redder. She turned her
