My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

112 Exposure

Josh was stubborn and felt that he must uncover the truth behind anything that seemed unreasonable.»

That was the case with Keira before.

And now, it was the same with Isla.

Keira smiled, thinking it was for the best to let it all come out, lest Isla really believed she was some kind of self-proclaimed hero.

No sooner had she put away her phone than she heard Isla’s falsely sympathetic voice. “Auntie, it’s not that

Keira is ignoring you, it’s just her personality. Please don’t take it to heart…”

Keira was perplexed.

She turned her head to find Melissa’s face darkened, retorting upon hearing those words. “Miss Olsen, didn’t your mother teach you to be polite when visiting someone’s home? It’s disrespectful to ignore someone when they’re speaking to you.”

Opposite them, Lewis glanced over with a frown. He was about to speak when that dazzling woman looked

up languidly and said, “What did you just say?”

Melissa simply sneered. “I said, Isla should sit next to Mrs. Horton. She has a lot to tell her after all. You don’t mind, do you?”

At that, Keira just shook her head.

Melissa thought she meant she didn’t mind and was

about to say more when she heard Keira say, “Sorry, I

do mind.”

Melissa was taken aback, “You!”

Keira spread her hands. “I have no manners, right? So of course, I wouldn’t know what politeness is.”

Melissa found herself speechless, stunned by the response.

In a world where high society placed immense value on dignity and appearances, why was Keira not playing by the rules?

Keira calmly corrected her crooked cutlery, which Melissa had pushed aside.

Isla then chimed in. “Auntie, please don’t take offense

at Keira, it’s my fault. Her mother’s background is special. She didn’t teach Keira well from the start, and as her sister, I failed to supervise her properly…”

Melissa scoffed. “What does it have to do with you? An illegitimate daughter simply can’t be seen in public!”
