343 Chapter 342
Keira and Lewis were seated in the reception room, surveying their surroundings. I didnt expect Rebeccas home to have such dcor. Its quite cozy.
Lewis frowned, looking displeased. Dont you feel even a hint of danger?
Keira, puzzled, looked at him, What danger?
Lewis coughed, then lowered his voice. Rebecca covets a friends husband so openly. You should keep your distance. Keira didnt know what to say.
She smiled faintly. There must be some misunderstanding
Lewis sighed and said nothing.
Over the years, whether during school or after returning to the country, many women had thrown themselves at him relentlessly, otherwise he wouldnt have mistaken Keira, who came to him with a printout of the marriage certificate, as trying to hit on him.
But he could never have imagined that the obedient girl who always listened to Keira, filled with admiration in her eyes, would also take a fancy to him.
If Rebecca were only Frankies sister, he certainly wouldnt be amicable.
But since Rebecca was also Keiras friend and bestie, with whom she had a good relationship in Oceanion, he couldnt be too harsh.
After all, a besties pillow talk could be deadly!
Lewis coughed, and then messed up his neatly arranged hair a bit, and adjusted his sports jacket. Seeing him like this, Keira asked, What are you doing?
Making myself look uglier.
Keira twitched the corner of her mouth, grabbing his hand. Stop messing around. No matter what you do, you cant hide your handsome features.
At her words, Lewis indeed stopped his actions, but his ears gradually turned red.
Keira noticed he blushed easily, so she deliberately stared at him.
Sure enough, it wasnt long before he cleared his throat to remind her. Hold back a bit. Wait until were home tonight. Keira laughed.
At that moment, there were sounds from the doorway, and then Frankie walked in with Rebecca.
Frankie had lost some weight since their first meeting. As soon as he entered, his gaze fell on Keiras face, a shadow flickering in his eyes.
Lewis immediately stepped forward, blocking his gaze.

Frankie looked at Lewis with a frown.
Keira didnt notice the subtle actions between the two men, instead, she turned to look at Rebecca, only to see Rebecca lifting her chin slightly, lacking the gentleness and timidity she had shown in Oceanion, her manner now carrying a hint of haughtiness.
As soon as she entered, she stared blatantly at Keira, her eyes filled with hostility. What was going on? While Keira was contemplating, Rebecca approached her and extended her hand. Hello, Im Rebecca.
As Keira reached out her hand, about to touch hers, Rebecca withdrew her hand, feigning nonchalance as she touched her hair, then stared at Keira, Keera, right? You really resemble a friend of mine.
Keira didnt know what to say.
Rebecca continued to stare at her. Do you want to know who my friend is? Oddly enough, its Mr. Hortons deceased wife Did you know about this?
Confused, Keira nodded.
Seeing this, Rebecca immediately furrowed her brows, her voice becoming somewhat shrill, You knew? Keira nodded again.
Rebecca immediately clenched her fists, then let out a scoff. Youre happy to be someones replacement?
This time, Keira sensed something was wrong, and before she could speak, Lewis stepped in front of her, giving Rebecca a warning look. Miss Allen, please mind your manners.
Are you defending her already?
Rebeccas attitude was harsh. She stepped forward, staring intently at Lewis. Mr. Horton, since youre here, its time made some things clear.
Her eyes were bright as she spoke. Actually, fancied you when met Miss Keira. just restrained myself because of her presence. Now that shes gone, how about our families join in marriage?
Lewis was perplexed.
His expression turned dark as he stared at Rebecca. He then looked back at Keira with a look that said, See, this is your good friend!
Keira hadnt expected Rebecca to say such a thing and immediately said, Miss Allen, you cant talk nonsense like that.

With that, she walked out.

together, so he stayed, looking helplessly at Lewis. Mr. Horton, you heard what my sister said, right?
Lewis suppressed the anger and stared at him. Do you always indulge her like this?
Frankie shrugged. Theres no helping it. Shes the only daughter of my parents, and shes my only sister who has gone through such an ordeal. From now on, she can only be coddled.
Lewis didnt know what to say.
He looked helplessly at Keira.
But Keira stepped forward and addressed Frankie. Mr. Allen, if the cooperation Been or fansiies is sp frivolsus then lets call it off. However, Miss Allen doesnt seem quite right. Maybe you should take her to a psychiatrist? The content is on BearNovels! Read the latest chapter there!
Frankle was startled.
Ever since Rebecca was brought home, she had become increasingly paranoid.
Her demands were now even more outrageous.
The family had thought it was due to experiencing a failed marriage and Keiras death, so they hadnt thought much about it. But Keira had spotted the problem at a glance.
Was Rebecca having mental issues?
Frankie pondered for a moment, then nodded. Thank you for the reminder, Miss South. Ill take her to see a doctor.
Keira turned and left with Lewis.
Frankie watched them leave and noticed that Lewis, when with Keera, still walked half a step behind her, just as he did in Oceanion when with Keira.
That was something that had shocked Frankie before. It
tclearly showed how much Lewis valued Keira.
And now, he was doing the same with Keera.
