Keira saw the message and replied, “Driving from Clance should take at least six hours, right? What time will your brother arrive?”

Rebecca’s message came back quickly, “Around noon! After my brother got the photo this morning, he sent it to our parents. They were so excited when they saw it and said they needed to talk to you in person.”

Keira was slightly startled.

With the advancement of mobile networks, much communication happened over the phone now, and personal contact had lessened.

And it seemed the photo was related to Lady South…

Lady South was Mrs. Olsen’s mother…

This matter must be very important!

Keira responded to the message. “Okay.”

But just as she finished getting ready and stepped out, she heard a piece of news that surprised her.

“To the horse ranch?”

Keira was slightly taken aback.

Standing before her, Melissa said with a smirk, “Yes, there’s a business meeting taking place at the horse. ranch today. Lewis, as the head of the Horton family, is definitely going to attend, and as his wife, you should be there with him.”

back then, so it was Keira who led the horse around

the ranch for me.”

Keira’s expression darkened

Horse riding has always been a trend among the wealthy elites.

And little Keira could only help by holding the leash.

Isla would ride and berate her at the same time. “Hurry up, run faster! You’re so slow. Did you not eat breakfast this morning?”

Keira really hadn’t eaten breakfast.

Since waking up, seven-year-old Keira had to serve Isla, carrying her schoolbag behind her, with Poppy never allotting her time for breakfast.

Her most hated activity was Isla’s horseback riding lesson every Saturday.
