My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

17 Humiliate Isla

The little old lady was now adorned in luxurious clothing, though she still looked a little pale.

Lewis was sitting frostily to her left.

To her right was a man over sixty. It was Lewis’s father.

A middle-aged couple in their forties sat on the nearby sofa, they were Lewis’ elder brother and sister-in-law, and also the parents of Jake.

Although no one had introduced the identity of the petite old lady, anyone able to sit in a prominent position in the Horton family was definitely old Mrs.

Horton.

Poppy stood where she was, dumbfounded. “You,

you…”

She stuttered for a while but couldn’t complete a

sentence.

by Jake.

Jake was puzzled. “What’s wrong with you?”

Isla’s hands were trembling.

She’d been striving for a connection with the Horton family all along and was painstakingly trying to please every elder here, but before she even entered the door, she had already offended old Mrs. Horton!

She suddenly chuckled bitterly. “Keira, why did you trick us, saying old Mrs. Horton is your husband’s grandmother? Due to that, we were disrespectful to the old lady…”

Keira instantly felt several suspicious glances directed

at her in the room.

Poppy, having recovered, scolded her. “You’re such a liar! You know that Mrs. Horton is old, so you dare to deceive her! What do you take the Horton family for? Kneel and apologize immediately!”

Keira’s eyes darkened.

They were trying to shift the blame, throwing all the fault onto her, and absolving Isla in the process.

What a good tactic.

“Smash!”

A teacup was thrown over by old Mrs. Horton, hitting

Poppy.

The boiling tea inside splashed onto her, but Poppy

didn’t dare to scream.

“Shut up!” Mrs. Horton screamed in anger. “She’s my granddaughter-in-law!”

Despite enduring the pain of a burn, Poppy yelled, “Mrs. Horton, you’ve been deceived by her! I’m completely sure that her husband is just a little punk!”

“No need to argue. Why not just ask the parties. involved?”

Jake’s mother chimed in, “Lewis, is she really the wife you’re hiding and not bringing home?”

Keira glanced swiftly towards Lewis, and then she heard that expected response. “No.”

The man, as always, was icy and emotionless.

What an ungrateful, vindictive, mean person!.
