141 Clear Up

As soon as these words were said, the room fell silent.

Isla and Jake both looked over at Lewis. The whole

point of calling him over was to see Keira’s husband and put them on the spot.

But now, was Lewis actually going to stand up for

Keira?

Isla was momentarily at a loss for words.

blurted out, “Mr. Horton knows her husband? With the

way he’s dressed, could he be anything other than a construction worker? Even if he’s not a laborer, at best, he could be a contractor, right?”

These days, even contractors could make a lot of

money.

Lewis’s gaze darkened, and just as he was about to speak, someone knocked on the door, and a man in a suit walked in. “Sorry to intrude.”

Seeing him, someone in the crowd immediately

exclaimed, “Mr. Hill?”

The man in the suit, Mr. Hill, was slightly taken aback.

“You know me?”

“Well, yes. Our company has recently been working with yours, trying to provide you with a constant temperature energy system. You might not remember me, I’m just an intern at my company,” the young man

said with an awkward smile.

Someone whispered from the side, “Who’s that?”

The young man said, “He’s an expatriate who has returned to Crera to pursue the real estate business. I heard their family’s enterprise has spread across the globe, and now he’s expanding into the Crera market. He’s quite impressive!”

“Really? What’s someone like that doing here? Co he be looking for Mr. Horton?”

In the room, only the Horton family had the status to discuss matters with such a family.

However, Lewis frowned.
