My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

832 Chapter 831

Keira glanced at Jenkins, then at Erin standing behind her with her ears practically perked up. These two were such gossips.

Keira couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth before finally saying, "I think it's because his voice has changed, and now he has an Adam's apple. It'd be tough to keep pretending to be a woman."

Jenkins immediately had a lightbulb moment.

Erin smacked her forehead. "Why didn't I think of that?"

Keira gave them both a slightly exasperated look and walked away.

There were still about ten days before the South family estate opened its gates. She needed to prepare.

The mystery surrounding the South family lingered. Jenkins, Erin, and even Sean had remained tight-lipped about it. The silence made her feel both curious and uneasy.

Back in her room, she saw Lewis typing away at his desk, engrossed in work.

Keira walked over and asked, "Why are you so busy lately?"

"I'm trying to wrap up everything for the next month," Lewis replied evenly.

Ah, it clicked. He was clearing his schedule to accompany her to the South family.

But she suspected the isolation of the South estate meant he couldn't afford to leave any loose ends.

After thinking it through, Keira stood in front of him. "You shouldn't come with me this time."

Lewis paused, his fingers hovering over the keyboard. Then he looked up at her. "Why not?"

Keira explained slowly, "It's my first time going to the South estate, and I don't even know what to expect there. I want to check on my mom and make sure she's doing okay, but I can't guarantee I won't be found out. If they realize I'm not Keera, I might get stuck there. If you come with me, who's going to rescue me?"
