My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

266 Take Off the Mask

The room was dark; no lights had been turned on.

Keira could barely make out someone on the bed, so she immediately turned and switched on the light.

The incandescent light came on.

Keira spotted Jodie at a glance.

She lay quietly in bed, eyes closed, sleeping. Her hands rested peacefully on her chest in a prim and proper sleeping posture.

Keira took a step forward, intending to take a closer look, but the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind her.

Instantly, Aunt South and Taylor charged into the room, one after the other!

Aunt South frowned and lowered her voice in

reprimand. “What are you doing barging in like this?

Get out now!”

But Keira didn’t move. Instead, she approached Mrs. Olsen, observing carefully. “I just happened to come by and wanted to check on Mrs. Olsen.”

“How can you be so impolite! What kind of classmate are you?! Really, you are…” Aunt South walked over, blocking her way.

Taylor also furrowed his brows. “Miss, if you don’t leave now, I’m going to call the police!”

No sooner had he said this than Lewis remarked

indifferently from the doorway. “She just went into the wrong room. There’s no need to make a fuss about it, right?”

Taylor clenched his fists, looking helplessly at Lewis. “Mr. Horton, what do you mean by this? Shirley is

already frail, and this severe shock has led to a mental

collapse. We should hurry out and not talk here in case we further upset her.”

Keira immediately expressed her doubts. “I heard Mrs. Olsen is a light sleeper. With so much noise. how has she not woken up?”

Upon hearing this, Aunt South answered, “Because the lady took sedatives before sleep!”

She asked, “What do you need these details for? Who exactly are you? Are you related to the murderer of

Miss Keira?”

Her demeanor didn’t seem like that of a liar.

Keira turned her gaze back to Taylor.

She saw Taylor also looking at her with skepticism, with no guilt in his eyes.

As she sized up the two of them, she suddenly felt a scrutinizing gaze fall upon her.

Only then did Keira realize that even Lewis was staring

at her.

The man’s eyes were swirling with emotion as if he had begun to harbor some doubts…

Keira immediately took a step back, stating calmly, “I’m a high school classmate of Keira, entrusted by Uncle

Olsen to visit Mrs. Olsen…”
