My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

As Lewis spoke, everyone was stunned.

Mrs. Olsen paused mid-step, then spun around, looking at Keira with disbelief etched on her face.

She was utterly astonished, her eyes filled with incredulity.

Her mouth opened and closed as if to say something, but she was unable to utter a word. Suddenly, she seemed to comprehend something, and her gaze fixed intently on the marriage certificate in Keira’s hands.

Keira tightened her grip on it.

She took another step forward and handed the marriage certificate to Mrs. Olsen.

At the same time, others were also questioning Lewis’s

words.

Isla gasped in shock, “How is this possible? Uncle, Mrs. Horton is clearly here. How can you say you and Keira are husband and wife?”

She looked at Madeleine, only to see her face ashen and filled with disbelief!

Gripping her skirt tightly, Madeleine looked at Lewis in confusion. “Lewis, what did you just say? You’re joking, right?”

Her reaction elicited sympathy from the crowd

“Look at Mrs. Horton. She obviously had no clue…”

“What’s Mr. Horton up to? Could he really be dumping his wife for that vixen?”

“Oh my God, Mrs. Horton is so pitiful!”

Horton family’s extensive wealth, changing wives must be like changing clothes, right?”

“Mrs. Horton looks absolutely stunned…”

Oliver frowned and immediately said, “Lewis, what do

you mean by this? Do you want to divorce your wife and marry Keira? If so, you must follow the formal legal process. You cannot treat her like this while your marriage still stands! The Horton family values won’t allow such actions!”

At his words, the Horton family patriarch, Nathan, also stepped forward.
