407 Chapter 406

The Olsens and the Hortons were set to be joined in matrimony. That piece of news had been announced to the public for quite some time now.

It had started a few years back when everyone thought Christina would be the one to marry into the Horton family, but unfortunately, the Hortons didn’t agree, and the matter came to nothing.

Later, it was heard that Lewis had taken a wife, so there seemed even less hope for the marriage.

But no one expected Lewis’s young wife to pass away so early, and suddenly the position of his wife was vacant again!

The Olsens brought up the marriage alliance once more, and surprisingly, the Hortons did not reject it.

Yet this affair had been gossiped about in Clance for a long time now, and so far, neither family had confirmed anything to the public. Why would they suddenly come to deliver the betrothal gifts today?

aside his daughter to clear the way for the butler.

Uncle Olsen raised his eyebrows, looking toward Keira.

Keira also showed a surprised look, her gaze turning to the butler in confusion.

The butler’s face lit up with joy as he quickly stepped inside. “I saw them bringing over a bunch of gifts, and they are unloading them from the car. Someone tipped me off, saying these are all betrothal gifts from the Horton family, and told me to inform you first!”

Uncle Olsen burst into laughter. “Good, that brat has finally come to his senses! Today is indeed a day of happiness!”

The butler laughed too. “A day of happiness indeed!”

Ellis, upon hearing this, instinctively turned his gaze to his recently acknowledged cousin Keera.

He knew very well that Lewis had been staying at Keera’s place. Was this a move to make Keera his wife?

He suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable.

As glorious as his cousin Keera was today, the memory of his deceased cousin Keira was just as poignant.
