How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 116 -

Chapter 116: Chapter 116

Mrs. Olsen was taken aback and looked at her.

Then she forced a bitter smile, “Fine, I know you’ve never accepted this father of yours… but this matter is none of your business, you should go back.”

Keira Olsen clenched her jaw, offering no further explanation, as it wasn’t a good time, “Mrs. Olsen, let’s talk about my issues later. Please, go back to the car first…”

Melissa Knight wasn’t an easy mother-in-law to deal with—today, having lost face for the first branch of the family and ending up schemed against by Old Mrs. Horton, resulting in a loss of two percent of shares, she was in no mood to meet with Mrs. Olsen.

Regardless, Keira Olsen’s position was awkward; she couldn’t actually go beg Old Mrs. Horton for mercy…

As she was contemplating her next move, footsteps could be heard from the Horton family’s large iron gate, followed by Fiona’s approach with a smile, “You must be Mrs. Olsen, right? It’s improper for a guest to wait outside; please, follow me in!”

Mrs. Olsen was startled, “You are?”

Without saying much more, Fiona responded, “I’m the Horton family’s housekeeper.”

Mrs. Olsen then looked towards Keira Olsen.

Keira Olsen pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, but finally said, “Mrs. Olsen, please go ahead inside.”

She knew that Old Mrs. Horton had sent Fiona to come and fetch them.

She also understood that she couldn’t, just because she was favored and trusted by Old Mrs. Horton, help Isla Olsen here and now, yet she couldn’t just stand by and watch Mrs. Olsen suffer.

Unaware of the reason behind it all, Mrs. Olsen nodded, coughed, and entered through the door.

When Old Mrs. Horton personally sent someone to invite a guest, even if Melissa Knight was reluctant, she had to show that level of respect to Old Mrs. Horton.

Soon, the group arrived in the Horton family’s main house living room.

Sitting arrogantly on the sofa was Melissa Knight, “Mrs. Olsen, what is this about? If I won’t meet with you, you just wait outside forever, not embarrassed by the loss of face?”

She didn’t even offer seats to them.

Stepping forward, Keira Olsen was about to say something when Isla Olsen grabbed her arm, “You better say less. Don’t anger my future mother-in-law and ruin my marriage prospects!”

Keira Olsen gave Isla Olsen a cold glance.

Just because of that, was it acceptable to let Mrs. Olsen sit here, humbling herself and begging?

Mrs. Olsen didn’t notice the quarrel between the two, merely coughed and sat down on a nearby sofa.

Melissa Knight immediately sneered in scorn, “With such manners, Mrs. Olsen, you’re quite the role model. I heard that Keira Olsen is the illegitimate daughter you raised? No wonder she’s also so polite!”

Lifting her head upon hearing these words, Mrs. Olsen smiled weakly, yet her words were firm, “Indeed, I did raise Keira. Thank you for your praise, Mrs. Horton.”

Melissa Knight was caught off guard, “You…!”

Mrs. Olsen interrupted her, “Mrs. Horton, I’m here to discuss something about both children… cough, cough, cough… I would like to have a private word with Mrs. Horton, if possible?”

Melissa Knight immediately wanted to object, when she looked up and saw Mrs. Olsen sitting there confidently, a broad social network from Clance came to mind, which she recalled Jake Horton mentioning before.

Melissa Knight then smirked, “Fine, let’s see what you have to say!”

She instructed the servants in the living room, “Leave us now.”

Mrs. Olsen also looked to Keira Olsen and Isla Olsen, “The two of you, go take a walk outside.”

Keira Olsen, worried, looked at her, yet ultimately stood up and walked out.

Isla Olsen left with a face full of joy.

The two of them stopped just outside the living room.

Keira Olsen occasionally glanced into the room, and when she turned her head back, she saw Isla Olsen holding her phone, messaging Jake Horton with what seemed like a smile on her face…

Keira Olsen couldn’t help but say, “Mrs. Olsen is running around inside for you, now god knows what deal she’s agreeing to with Mrs. Horton, crouching down and bowing low, and you’re not worried at all? Just so self-righteous?”

At those words, Isla Olsen gave her a glance: “She’s my biological mother. Isn’t it natural for a mother to run about for her daughter?”

After speaking, her expression suddenly turned cold: “Oh, I forgot, your mother wasn’t good to you, so you must have never experienced this kind of feeling, right?”

Keira Olsen clenched her fists tightly: “You…!”

Isla Olsen immediately gloated: “Then let me tell you what it feels like when a biological mother cares for her daughter. When I went home crying today, my mom was so heartbroken for me, so she took the initiative to offer her help to plead on my behalf.”

Keira Olsen said angrily, “The Horton Family is Oceanion’s wealthiest, what could Mrs. Olsen possibly offer to plead for you?!”

The look in Isla Olsen’s eyes suddenly became fierce: “If there’s nothing she can offer, then she’ll just have to kneel and bow her head, kneel until Mrs. Horton agrees!”

“You…!”

“Keira Olsen, I’ll say it again, she’s my mom! It’s only right for her to do anything for me! Didn’t you say you owed me nothing? Well, now I’ll let you face the reality!”

Suddenly, Isla Olsen walked up to her, sneered coldly, “You owe my mom, and as I am my mother’s daughter, by birth, you owe me too! If I am not doing well, neither is my mother… If you truly want my mother’s negotiation to go more smoothly this time, you’d better go find Old Mrs. Horton and speak on my behalf! At least if Mrs. Horton agrees, it might sway Old Mrs. Horton! Otherwise, even if my mother persuades Mrs. Horton, Old Mrs. Horton might still end up being humiliated…”

Keira Olsen listened with her fists so tight they felt hard, looking at the woman in front of her, smug and self-satisfied, she wished she could tear her to pieces!!

Mrs. Olsen, whom she respected and saw as both a mentor and a mother, and this woman didn’t treasure her one bit…

Yet, Keira Olsen understood all too well that Mrs. Olsen was Isla Olsen’s mother…

A mother making sacrifices for her daughter seemed normal, Keira Olsen had no right to interfere.

At that moment, Keira Olsen was overwhelmed with a sense of helplessness.

She had thought of many ways Isla Olsen might save this marriage—like using the child as leverage or deceiving Jake Horton—but it never crossed her mind that she would go home and torment her frail mother.

Keira Olsen took a step back, putting distance between them, and again looked worriedly towards the living room.

Half an hour later, Mrs. Olsen walked out of the room.

As soon as Mrs. Olsen came out, Keira Olsen hurriedly stepped forward to support her.

Just as she was about to ask a couple of questions, Isla Olsen rushed over, pushing Keira Olsen aside and grasping Mrs. Olsen’s arm: “Mom, how did it go? Did Mrs. Horton agree?”

Mrs. Olsen seemed to be utterly exhausted, she gave a wry smile: “Yes, she agreed.”

“Mom, I knew you could do it! I love you, Mom!”

Isla Olsen was acting like a spoiled child.

Mrs. Olsen, however, did not pat her head as usual but coldly pushed her away, then turned to Keira Olsen: “Keira, escort me out, please.”

Keira Olsen immediately supported her arm: “Mrs. Olsen, please take it slow.”

Mrs. Olsen patted her hand and then said, “From now on, don’t mention again that Taylor Olsen isn’t your father…”

After all, she had personally witnessed the amniocentesis of the child in Poppy Hill’s womb and the paternity test with Taylor Olsen, there could be no mistake.

Keira Olsen was momentarily stunned: “I truly am not…”
