My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

234 Background

Keira looked at Lewis in surprise.

When he came, he had casually mentioned that

Madeleine had saved his life, but he hadn’t shared the

details.

Had it also been a case of abduction and trafficking…?

Only, unlike her own situation, had he nearly been

killed at the time?

If that were the case, then this would indeed be considered a life-saving grace.

No wonder Lewis was so accommodating toward

Madeleine.

While she was thinking, Lewis had already started to speak, his voice deep and gentle, with a hint of tenderness. “Sorry, I misspoke.”

He still held Keira’s hand tightly, his eyes having a complicated emotion as he looked at Madeleine, and explained earnestly, “I thought that a childhood promise is still a promise. Although I don’t love you, could stay unmarried for a lifetime, and be there for

He spoke slowly, with deliberate pauses. “Between you and her, I’m destined to let one down, so I choose her.

“Miss Davis, I won’t come to see you anymore, and you don’t have to call me either. I won’t stop paying your medical expenses, and you can ask the director for anything you need. Besides companionship, I’ll try to meet all your material needs!”

Upon hearing this, Madeleine’s face turned pale.

After leaving those words, he didn’t give Madeleine a chance to speak any further and pulled Keira away.

Keira left the hospital room with him, and suddenly, the desperate, heartbreaking cries of Madeleine came

from behind them.

Unfortunately, Lewis never looked back.

Keira was no saint; she didn’t feel pity for Madeleine and only found her pitiful.

And the reason Lewis, a responsible man, was so

heartlessly rejecting Madeleine at this moment was because of his deep affection for Keira.

She looked at Lewis holding her hand and squeezed back firmly.

She thought, as long as Lewis didn’t let go of her hand, perhaps she would never let go of his hand in this lifetime…

The two left the hospital and drove away.

On the road, Lewis’s phone kept ringing.
