Keira, however, remained standing in place,

motionless.

She clenched her fists tightly, the moonlight casting upon her cool countenance, making her voice seem as if it were coated in a layer of ice. “Don’t bother.”

Lewis pondered for a moment before speaking. “Actually, even if he’s not your father, Mrs. Olsen could still possibly be your…”

“Don’t say it.” Keira Olsen interrupted him.

The moment he uttered “mother”, it would tarnish Mrs. Olsen’s character!

She lowered her eyes and spoke slowly, “Although Taylor was mean to me, he has always loved Mrs.

Olsen, and that has never changed. With such a

husband, how could Mrs. Olsen possibly have an affair? Let’s not insult her.”

Lewis’s jaw tensed as he tried to argue, but he remained silent.

Keira Olsen’s lips curled into a self-deprecating smile.

“I always thought that the status of an illegitimate daughter was already quite sordid, but I never imagined it could get even worse…”

Lewis wanted to say something to comfort her, but Keira gestured with her hand. “I need a moment alone.”

“Alright.”

Lewis said quietly, taking a step back silently to give her ample space.

Poppy approached the hospital room nervously, and from outside the door, she heard the conversation between Mrs. Olsen and Taylor, which mentioned Keira.

Mrs. Olsen said, “After all, you and Keira are father and daughter. She was very nervous about you just now. You should be nicer to her in the future.”

Taylor, who had stopped bleeding and whose vital signs were stable, sighed. “You should be nicer to Isla…”

Mrs. Olsen suddenly lowered her voice, “Taylor, don’t

be like this. You know very well that I was pregnant before marrying you, and I haven’t been able to give you a child after that. Keira is your real daughter…”

“Don’t talk like that,” Taylor said with a smile. “When we got married, I already said that your daughter would be my daughter. Shirley, over these years, I’ve kept my word.”

Mrs. Olsen’s eyes welled up with grateful tears. “You’ve kept your word, but it’s so unfair to Keira, and it’s too

unfair to you…”

“The fact that you could give up the prosperity of

Clance and live with me in simplicity in Oceanion, I’m already very content. What’s unfair about that? Let’s not talk about this anymore!

Taylor smiled. “Besides, you’ve been so good to Kei over the years. Wasn’t that also out of a sense of redress? Shirley, she’s the result of Poppy’s scheming against me. I’ve never considered her as my daughter, you really don’t need to do this.”

Mrs. Olsen looked stunned.

At first, she might have indeed been kind to Keira with that thought in mind, but as they gradually got to
