Keira teased him. “A token of affection.”

Lewis was stunned for a moment, his gaze becoming

tense. “Who gave it to you?”

“Certainly not you!”

Keira raised an eyebrow.

Lewis’s eyes darkened slightly. “Since it wasn’t me, then it can be thrown away.”

“That won’t do.” Keira looked up. “I’m thinking about returning it to him in the future. It looks quite valuable!”

“Huh, as if it could be anything valuable.”

Keira then asked, “Do you want to see it?”

“Don’t want to see it.” Lewis was stubborn, but his eyes still glanced toward her neck.

Keira clicked her tongue.

“What is it?”

“How come I smell a hint of jealousy?”

The two bantered and soon arrived at the Horton

residence.

Although Selena had sent them to stay in the main house, they still went to visit old Mrs. Horton first.

Seeing Lewis’s sulking face, Selena didn’t dare to put on airs and let them into the room.

Keira noticed that aside from the safe, all other valuable items had been removed from the room. Fiona secretly told her that all were taken to Selena’s own room. What a greedy woman.

She whispered complaints, treating Keira as the hostess, with an air of seeking her decision, “…All of these were left for you by old Mrs. Horton, and now she has snatched them all away!”

Keira felt a warmth in her heart.

She had no family since she was young. Now the Olsens were renovating for her, and she was gradually getting used to life at the Horton’s…

She smiled slightly and whispered back, “Don’t worry. What’s ours, she can’t take away.”

Fiona breathed a sigh of relief then.

Old Mrs. Horton was still asleep, and Keira saw her complexion looking better. She checked the readings on the surrounding equipment and, finding everything in order, felt relieved.

She and Lewis walked out of old Mrs. Horton’s courtyard, heading toward the main house.

On the way, Lewis asked her, “What did Fiona tell you just now?”
