NovelBar103 Arrest
Keira blinked slightly.
What did Isla steal from her?
While deep in thought, she heard Isla frantically defend herself. “What nonsense are you spouting?!”
“Did I hit a nerve?”
Connor, who had lost his composure at school, was taunting Isla relentlessly, using her pain points against her.
“Did you not steal Dr. South’s identity from her to win over Jake? Do you really think Jake would love you? He's
just interested in Dr. South! And then there's the Allen family, you pretended to be Keira again, Isla. You seem
quite familiar with this modus operandi!”
Isla exploded in fury. “Connor Hill, shut your mouth
Connor sneered. “Why should | shut up when you've stolen something even more important from her? Do you
wantto spell it out?”
Something... more important? What could it be?!
Keira frowned.

Isla roared, “Shut up! Shut up!”
It seemed that Connor still had sexpectations for her, so he didn’t bring up that topic anymore, “Isla, | can
stay silent, but you have to elope with me. I'll work hard to earn money and provide you with a better
I ifiehg
Isla took a deep breath and said resolutely, “You, a dropout, what can you give me? What | want is the position of
the mistress of the Horton family! Connor Hill, I'm not going with you!”
“You! Aren’t you afraid that I'll reveal your secret?!” Connor growled with anger.
Isla chuckled. “Go ahead. Connor Hill, do you honestly believe that only you have leverage overand that
have no leverage over you?”
Connor was stunned. “What do you mean?”
Isla seemed to have taken out a voice recorder, and after she turned it on, there was first an electric current hiss,
followed by Connor's voice. “Isla, don’t worry. | killed my father! He'll never bother you again!”
Isla exclaimed, “How could you murder someone? You

“No, | can pin the blon Keira. Isla, I've removed these two annoying people for you at once. Remember, it's
all for your own good. | love you...”
The recording abruptly ended.
Isla laughed. “Connor, if you dare expose my secret, I'll hand this over to the police! If | lose everything, your
ending will be a thousand times worse than mine!”
Connor sounded horrified. “Isla, you can’t treatlike
this!!”
“You and your father forcedfirst!” Isla’s voice was exuberant as she said quietly, “Connor, we both hold each
other's secrets, so let's be at peace.”
“How can | be at peace? I'm surrounded by reporters and attacked by my aunt! I'm going crazy!”
“Then suck it up!” Isla’s voice was ruthless.
It seemed that Connor was frightened by her. “Isla, don’t you care about my feelings at all? Don’t you love
me?”
But Isla didn’t want to deal with him tactfully anymore. “Are you kidding me? If it wasn’t for your father forcing

that? Every t| see you and your father, | feel sick! You're parasites and blood-suckers! Connor Hill, don’t
botheragain!”
Connor was stunned. “You never loved me?”
Isla sneered. “I only love myself! If you obey, we can continue as before. If you threatenagain, don’t blame
Connor sobbed. “Isla, don’t scare me. If I'm caught by the police, I'll expose your secret!”
After saying this, Connor hung up.
In the living room, Keira removed her earphones, her eyes shining brightly.
She took out her cell phone and sent a message to Holly. “You can arrest Connor Hill now.”
After sending the message, she looked up at Lewis.
Lewis immediately understood her meaning and nodded slightly.
Their tacit interaction made Jake feel very
uncomfortable!
There must be something between his uncle and

Keira. But how could that be? Keira should be his!
He clenched his fist, his eyes welling up with tears. “Uncle, wouldn't Auntie be displeased with Keira living here
and being mistaken as jer by Grandma?”
Lewis smiled. “She probably won't mind. Isn’t that right, Miss Olsen?”
Keira raised an eyebrow, “That should be the case, Mr.
Horton.”
Their conversation was polite and distant, but it was strangely sweet.
Jake's anger escalated, and he was about to say something, but Isla walked in from outside. “Mr. Horton, the
point isn’t Mrs. Horton's attitude, but that Keira is now deep in a public opinion controversy. | just checked online.
She actually attacked a reporte and even harmed her own mother. Mr. Horton, the video of you taking her away
has been released, and now everyone is saying that the person shielding her is the Horton family...”
Isla handed her phone to Jake. Indeed, the public opinion online was all criticisms toward the Horton family.

“I was wondering, wasn’t she supposed to be a rich second-generation heiress? Why would she live there? It
turns out it’s not because this murderer is powerful, but because someone is shielding her!”
“The person who cto save her had his face blurred, but | can reveal a bit. That person looked a lot like
someone from the H family...
“The H family, the richest in Oceanion?”
“Yes, them...”
Isla calmly said, “I just checked the Horton Group's stocks, and there has been a slight fluctuation. If journalists
confirm that Keira is at the Horton's, it'll undoubtedly plummet immediately. Mr. Horton, s you wouldn't
jeopardize the Horton Group for a woman, right?”
Lewis straightened his sleeve, a smile still playing on his lips, but he didn’t say a word.
Jake echoed. “Uncle, you're in charge of the Horton Group. If there’s a major blunder, Grandpa will definitely not
let you off! Moreover, the shareholders
of the Horton Crown will aleg hold you rasponsiblal”

Seeing that Lewis still remained silent, Isla turned towards Keira. “Keira, | know that you can’t stay at your rented
house anymore. How about this, chwith me. The Olsen family has already been exposed anyway, so
let's not implicate the Horton family anymore... Old Mrs. Horton and Mr. Horton have been so good to you. You
wouldn't want to put them in a difficult position, would you?”
Jake Horton immediately said, “Isla, you're always reliable, not like smurderer. Once they manage to latch
onto the Horton family, they stick around like plasters!”
Old Mrs. Horton immediately becenraged. “I was the one who invited her! Watch your language!
Besides, she’s not a murderer! The police haven't convicted her!”
Isla immediately said, “Great-grandma, as long as Keira’s suspicion isn’t cleared, she’ll have to carry this
stigma...”
“Heh.”
Keira, who was playing with her phone, chuckled, her voice gentle. “How coincidental. It’s cleared now.”

She handed her phone to Isla.
It showed a photo taken by a reporter of Connor being arrested.
The color drained from Isla’s face instantly!!
