254 Mrs. Horton?

Vehicles bustled around them.”

When Keira turned her head to look over, Howard had already grabbed her arm, giving her a wary glance.

But Keira didn’t speak; instead, she calmly looked at

Tom.

Seeing her determined attitude, Howard tried to please Tom with a smile. “You must be Mr. Davis, right? Sorry, we came from Clance to pay our respects, and

the child wanted milk, but we had no hot water… The child’s mother here… she was looking to see if you had any water in the house…”

Keira didn’t offer any further explanation, just quietly watching Tom.

To her surprise, Tom glanced at her only briefly before immediately saying, “The Horton family has plenty of hot water. Shall I get someone to bring it over to you?”

Keira frowned slightly.

What did Tom mean by that?

He didn’t recognize her?

Keira was full of confusion and was about to say something, but then she closed her mouth.

At this moment, countless doubts surged up in her heart, making her exceedingly cautious!

Upon further thought, the truth of her marriage had been suddenly revealed, and out of the blue, she had gained a twin sister.

And soon after Keera met her, they both faced a deadly

threat!

This indicated that the “they” Keera spoke of, who wanted to kill them, had been surveilling her all along.

Did Tom perceive something? Was that why he didn’t dare acknowledge her?

While she was lost in her thoughts, Howard, in fear, immediately gestured with his hands, his posture very humble. “Please don’t bother. I’ll just go with you to get

some!”

After saying that, he snatched the feeding bottle from Keira’s hand, about to have Keira wait in the car when a honking sound came from within the line of cars.

Howard turned around to see that the cars up front

had moved, but theirs was still stationary.

And the cars they were blocking were all expensive luxury cars. How could Howard dare to delay?

Tom also frowned and asked. “Whose car is that?”
