142 Husband and Wife

Lewis’s words once again quieted the private room.

Everyone looked at him in shock.

Even Professor Miller was confused. “He’s here?

Where?”

Lewis straightened his back and watched as Professor Miller bypassed him, starting with Scott Martin. He examined each of the men sitting in their seats, but after a full circle, he found no one.

Professor Miller asked, “Keira, who on earth is it?”

Lewis was speechless.

Seeing the change in the man’s expression, Keira couldn’t help but snicker internally.

From the first time she saw Lewis, he had always been serious. This was the first time Keira had seen so many

emotions on his face.

She smiled but said nothing.

Isla frowned. “Keira, did you marry one of our classmates? Who exactly is it? Stop keeping us in

suspense!”

At that, Lewis spoke up, “Her husband is me!”

Suddenly, there was silence in the room, and everyone’s gaze abruptly shifted to the two of them.

Isla wanted to say something, but after opening her mouth and then meeting Lewis’s cold face, she

swallowed her words.

Lewis raised Keira’s hand, which he had been holding tightly under the table, showed it to everyone, and then specifically gave Scott a wary look. “Mr. Martin, I’m glad my wife could help you. If there’s anything in the future, you can contact me.”

Scott was speechless.

Lewis then looked around at everyone and signaled to Tom, who immediately smiled and said, “Mr. Horton and Miss Olsen have arranged a few bottles of fine wine to celebrate Professor Miller’s birthday. They’ll be served shortly. Enjoy your meal and drink, and this

meal will be on Mr. Horton’s account.”

The classmates were very appreciative, immediately
