197 Turn Around

In the parking lot. ®

Inside that luxurious car, Lewis and Uncle Olsen were

still in a standoff.

Seeing the police car, Uncle Olsen’s eyes flickered for a moment. “Someone called the police?”

Lewis recognized Holly. Seeing her hurried demeanor, he knew she must be there to help Keira. He didn’t expose this connection and simply said indifferently, “Isn’t it better that the police are here? If Keira really pushed Isla, she can be dealt with by the law!”

Uncle Olsen stared at him. “Brat, don’t play tricks in front of me. I’ve said it, even if that illegitimate daughter didn’t push Isla, since Miss Olsen slandered her, then I’ll make her pay the price!”

Ellis nodded and then ran upstairs.

Lewis looked him in the eye, “Uncle Olsen, I return the sentiment! If my wife is wronged, I won’t hesitate to cross swords with you!”

Upstairs.

Keira looked at the gathering of journalists, her lips curling into a cold smile.

If the first branch of the family wanted to bring down Lewis, then she certainly wasn’t going to let Isla off the hook…

Keira glanced around at the people, and once the reporters quieted down, she spoke in a clear, frosty voice. “First, I didn’t intentionally hurt anyone, and second, the child that Isla lost wasn’t a Horton!”

Her voice was very clear, allowing the reporters to
