How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 98 -
Chapter 98: Chapter 98
Rebecca Allen’s words startled Mrs. and Mr. Allen, “Rebecca, this isn’t the time to throw a tantrum…”
But Rebecca Allen spoke up, “She saved me when I was close to dying, and now that she’s in trouble, how can I leave? The rehabilitation facilities in Oceanion are quite good. I’ll stay in this hospital until the person who saved me is out of danger.”
Mrs. and Mr. Allen looked at each other, “But what if Miss Olsen really did kill that person?”
Rebecca Allen’s eyes reddened, “Then I’ll wait. Miss Olsen doesn’t have many relatives or friends, so on visiting days, I will go see her! Otherwise, everyone else gets visitors and she doesn’t—wouldn’t that be very sad?”
Mr. Allen chuckled and sighed, “Are you planning to stay here without leaving?”
Rebecca Allen hung her head, remaining silent, the image of her spoiled self emerging again.
Frankie Allen felt somewhat relieved seeing this.
Ever since her husband and mother-in-law had betrayed her, Rebecca Allen had become very insecure. Now that she was throwing tantrums again, it signaled that she was improving.
After pondering for a moment, he sighed, “There are still matters to attend to back in Clance at the company. I’ll head back first. Mom and Dad, you stay with Rebecca here in Oceanion for rehabilitation. Think of it as a vacation.”
Mr. Allen helplessly agreed, “Alright then.”
…
Isla Olsen didn’t leave with Mrs. Olsen and Mr. Olsen, but stayed at the hospital.
She entered Old Mrs. Horton’s ward and found the elderly lady humming a tune, wearing reading glasses, and watching a drama series.
After knocking on the door, she walked in.
Old Mrs. Horton’s face darkened upon seeing her, “Why are you here?”
Isla Olsen smiled, “Old Mrs. Horton, I came to tell you something…”
Old Mrs. Horton waved her off, “I don’t want to hear you speak. Just leave.”
Two bodyguards immediately stepped forward, ready to grab Isla Olsen.
Isla Olsen quickly exclaimed, “Old Mrs. Horton, it’s Kiera Olsen who’s in trouble!”
Old Mrs. Horton paused, looking up over her reading glasses, “What did you say? What happened to my daughter-in-law?”
Isla Olsen was stunned, “What daughter-in-law?”
“It’s Kiera! What happened to her?”
Isla Olsen, not overthinking it and assuming Old Mrs. Horton’s dementia was acting up again, followed along and explained, “She killed someone, was arrested, and has been in jail since last night. Today she was released on bail awaiting trial, and it’s all over the news. Didn’t you see, Old Mrs. Horton?”
News…
Old Mrs. Horton immediately took out her phone and saw the trending topic: #RichHeiressBuysLife#
She clicked into it and saw Josh the reporter’s interview.
The faces of Kiera Olsen and Connor Hill were blurred, but those familiar with them could still recognize them at a glance.
Old Mrs. Horton watched the news report in shock. The entire social media platform was abuzz:
——We must find out which rich heiress did this! She must be brought to justice!
——My God, if it weren’t for the reporters, would the deceased have died in vain? His son even signed a settlement for money…
——Murder merits death! This phrase is applicable in any era!
——Please disclose which family this is? I will never support anything from their family again! What a rotten rich heiress, taking our money to bully the poor?
…
…
The more Old Mrs. Horton read, the more shocked she became.
Seeing her reaction, Isla Olsen quickly said, “Old Mrs. Horton, Kiera’s reputation is now completely ruined. Perhaps you should keep your distance to avoid implicating the Horton Group…”
Isla Olsen’s eyes shimmered with ruthlessness.
Keira Olsen was so arrogantly spectacular now only because she had the favor of Old Mrs. Horton, didn’t she?
If it weren’t for Old Mrs. Horton, what would she amount to then!
When Old Mrs. Horton heard this, she indeed turned towards her: “The Horton Group?”
Isla smiled, “Yes, you should keep Mr. Horton away from her… I saw Mr. Horton taking care of her in the hospital. If reporters took photos, it would be terrible if they thought Keira had something to do with the Horton Family.”
Old Mrs. Horton immediately furrowed her brows, “Exactly, cannot let the reporters photograph it…”
She immediately picked up her phone and dialed Lewis Horton’s number.
The call connected quickly, Old Mrs. Horton shouted directly, “Are you at the hospital?! Are there many reporters?”
Lewis Horton’s deep and pleasant voice transmitted from the phone, “…How did you know?”
“Never mind how I knew, I’m telling you, you must protect your privacy, don’t let the reporters photograph…”
Isla curved up her lips.

When it came to matters of reputation, Old Mrs. Horton and Mr. Horton indeed began to avoid suspicion…
Just as she thought of this, she heard Old Mrs. Horton continue, “…Don’t let the reporters photograph Keira! A girl needs to maintain her dignity! Even if this gets solved, if it makes the hot search, how will she face anyone in Oceanion afterwards!”
Isla: !!
She looked at Old Mrs. Horton in astonishment, just as she continued, “You brat, such a big issue arose, and you didn’t tell me. How is Keira now? Do I need to come and see her? …No need? Then don’t go to work, make sure you stay in the hospital to protect her, if you don’t protect her well, don’t bother coming home!”
When Isla was chased out of the hospital room, this was the sentence she heard.
Angry, she stamped her foot, her eyes revealing a vicious look.
In the hospital.
Lewis Horton looked thoughtful as he hung up the phone, he touched his nose and looked at Keira Olsen. His grandmother’s words echoed in his mind, “Brat, this is your good chance. Oh, where will you sleep tonight? On the sofa? How can you sleep on a sofa? Squeezing in bed with your wife should work!”
Bed…
The hospital beds were all single beds, two people could indeed squeeze in, but they would have to stick close, wouldn’t they?
Thinking of this, Lewis’s face turned slightly red.
He cleared his throat and said to Keira Olsen, “I’ll go handle some things at the company.”
Keira Olsen lay on the hospital bed resting, and upon hearing this she nodded, “Okay.”
Lewis walked towards the door, but suddenly turned back, “I’ll come to join you for dinner tonight.”
Keira Olsen: ?
She wanted to say if he was busy it was not necessary, but upon meeting Lewis Horton’s deep eyes, she swallowed her words.
She nodded, “Okay.”
After Lewis Horton left, Keira Olsen thought she would be a bit bored, but didn’t expect that Mrs. and Mr. Allen would come with Rebecca Allen.
The three of them kept her company chatting, and time quickly moved onto evening.
Rebecca Allen and Keira Olsen talked quietly, while Mr. and Mrs. Allen sat on the couch next to them, their phones both vibrating at once.
Mr. Allen took his out and saw a message from Frankie Allen: [Dad, Mom, I’m home now.]
Mr. Allen glanced at Keira Olsen.
The more he looked at her face, the more it resembled the Lady South from his memories…
Suddenly, he sent Frankie Allen a message: [The second drawer in my study has an album, flip through it, I remember on the eighteenth page, there’s a photo of me and Lady South from back in the day, take a picture of it and send it to me.]
