239 Deliver the Package

Samuel’s tone was ominous. “If you can’t give me a definite answer today, this matter won’t end! Don’t think your Horton Group can just bully people as you please!”

Tom said helplessly, “That was when they were kids. My boss didn’t tell me the details. I guessed it from what Miss Davis usually says.”

Samuel kept cursing. “An incident from childhood is even more ridiculous, right? Can you confirm that Miss Davis is indeed the one who saved his life? Don’t get

the wrong person again!”

Tom sighed. “We can confirm it. Although Miss Davis said the token was sold by her mother, we conducted a lie detector test on her and could confirm she wasn’t

lying.”

“Is that Miss Davis really mentally ill?”

“Yes, we’ve consulted many experts both domestically and abroad; she has severe claustrophobia and autism. My boss is her only redemption and hope for life…”

Tom looked at them, trying to explain on behalf of Lewis. “Miss Olsen, I know you must be blaming my

boss right now, but my boss never planned on

marrying Miss Davis. It’s only her wishful thinking! All these years, my boss has been paying for her medical treatment, but all the doctors said her condition was

too severe…”

Tom sighed. “I’ve been monitoring her all these years, thinking what if Miss Davis makes a mistake? If she could just slip up, I could persuade my boss to give her up. But she hasn’t, and the only excessive thing she did in all these years was during that birthday banquet, pretending to be Mrs. Horton for a moment, but later she gave a reasonable explanation, saying it was because everyone just assumed she was, and she feared denying it would cause trouble for my boss. Since then, she’s been staying quietly in the psychiatric hospital…”

Hearing this, Samuel felt it was ridiculous. “Is she so innocent? What should we do then? It’s not like every time she tries to kill herself, Lewis should go watch over her, right? Then what’s the point of my boss’s marriage?”

Tom gave a wry smile. “I guess that’s why my boss decisively chose Miss Olsen and gave up on Miss Davis previously. But after all, she saved his life once. Can he really just watch her die?”

Samuel was silent for a moment.

As a man, he always understood how important a sense of responsibility was.

If Lewis could be this ruthless toward Madeleine now,

could he one day be just as ruthless toward Keira?

The two of them fell silent for a moment.

Keira, with her eyes downcast, said, “The public opinion that has come up is a bit baffling. You two go find out what’s happening.”

Tom immediately said, “We’ve looked into it. The first branch of the family is making trouble.”

“Then press it down hard. Don’t let this matter get
