866 Chapter 865

The sea was sparkling under the sun.

A private yacht cruised on the surface of the sea. Lewis and Keira stood in the cabin. Keira stared at the massive yacht. "Is this yours?" she asked.

"Yeah," Lewis replied.

Keira couldn't help but exclaim, "You're really loaded."

Yachts like this one, capable of venturing into deep seas, were typically huge—far beyond what an ordinary person could afford. The cost of this yacht alone could be in the billions, if not hundreds of billions.

Though the Horton family was powerful, they couldn't just casually buy something like this. Keira couldn't help but ask, "What exactly do you do?"

Back when they were in Country A, there had been that pirate cove Lewis had taken care of. Could it be...?

Before she could finish her thought, Lewis smiled. "Mrs. Horton, asking this now? Isn't it a bit too late? You've already boarded my ship!"

Keira froze for a moment, then chuckled, unable to stop herself.

Lewis suddenly stepped forward, wrapping his arms around her waist from behind. His voice was slow and steady as he spoke. "When I was younger, my brother and father couldn't stand me, so I was kept in the old house. When I got older, my grandmother feared they might secretly harm me, so she sent me abroad. Those years, I didn't exactly follow the rules. Instead, I built up my own power and made some friends. Together, we started a maritime transport fleet. One day, we were robbed by pirates. I couldn't take it, so I hired some mercenaries and led them to the island."
