154 Husband and Wife

Lewis had changed into a new suit of the same style and as he descended the stairs slowly. There was a

palpable sense of oppression that pervaded the entire banquet hall.

His gaze was intent, and after reaching the bottom of the stairs, he first looked toward the screen before surveying the surroundings.

He quickly spotted Keira and strode over to her.

But to his surprise, he was intercepted by Poppy.

She rushed in front of Lewis and clung to his lower leg. “Mr. Horton, I am Keira’s mother. You’ve slept with her, so you must give her an explanation. You can’t just leave things unresolved!”

Lewis frowned. He wanted to kick her away, but when he remembered that this woman was, after all, Keira’s mother, he still showed some restraint and merely shook her off before turning his gaze to Tom.

With a wave of Tom’s hand, two bodyguards in black immediately rushed over and grabbed Poppy.

Poppy sat on the ground, slapping her thighs and crying., “Come and see, someone is going to murder me! Mr. Horton slept with my daughter and refuses to take responsibility…”

The next moment, a rag was viciously stuffed into her mouth by Tom!

Poppy couldn’t speak a word anymore and only could make muffled whining sounds.

Tom then picked at his ear. “Finally quiet. Your wailing was really annoying!”

This sequence of actions swiftly took care of the

noisiest person at the scene.

Yet Lewis was stopped again by Jake, “Uncle Lewis, with so many executives here, shouldn’t you give us an explanation about what’s on the screen?”

Lewis’s gaze sharpened as he looked toward him.

Jake swallowed nervously, no longer daring to speak.

Jake’s father, Oliver started talking. “Lewis, as the person in charge of Horton Group, you should set an example. How could you be so reckless and even allow evidence to be captured…”

He sighed. “Today, many reporters are here to cover the grand occasion of your grandmother’s birthday banquet. Even if you can silence us, you can’t silence them. So now, we need a practical plan!”

Lewis remained composed but didn’t rush to explain. Instead, he looked at his brother, “What kind of plan should we come up with?”

Oliver didn’t speak.

But someone among the executives behind him spoke up. “Mr. Horton, we want to know. Is the photo real?”
