My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

111 Hug for a Moment

Keira’s eyes shone faintly, her voice soft lest she startle the old lady. “Then, how did we get our marriage

certificate?”

Old Mrs. Horton said with a smile. “I remember that day. You wore a red sweater...”

A red sweater?

Keira paused slightly. Indeed, she had a red sweater, which she bought three years ago during New Year. She

stayed alone in her rented room. She wanted to dress joyfully, so it wouldn't feel so lonely.

And sure enough, that was the sweater she was wearing in the marriage certificate photo.

Old Mrs. Horton continued. “That brat was wearing a black suit, and off you two went to get your

certificate!”

Keira frowned.

The courthouse had said that getting married definitely required the presence of both parties. What

old Mrs. Horton said meant Keira had indeed obtained

a marriage certificate with Lewis two years ago.

Why didn’t she or Lewis know about it?

It couldn't be something as melotic as both of them having amnesia, could it?

Besides, she had a good memory. She clearly remembered everything she had done two years ago!

Keira continued. “How did we meet?”

Old Mrs. Horton looked at her earnestly. “Of course, it was because of me...”

“What did you do?”

Keira asked the question, but old Mrs. Horton yawned, and her gaze went from confused to clear. “Oh my,

granddaughter-in-law, what are you doing up so

early?”

Keira hadn't managed to get the crucial information, but it wasn't a total loss. At least she now knew their

marriage had indeed been orchestrated by the old lady, but what exactly the old lady had done, Keira didn’t

know.

She might as well wait until the clinical medication was ready and cure the old lady's illness before

discussing it further.

Keira sighed, “Grandma, it’s tfor breakfast.”

After old Mrs. Horton had freshened up, both of them sat in the dining room.

The Horton family’s housekeeper had prepared a very abundant breakfast. Keira and old Mrs. Horton chatted

while waiting for Lewis.

“That brat is so tall. | think he might be over six feet three.”

Old Mrs. Horton gestured with her hand, “He’s half a meter taller than me!”

Keira smiled. “Yes, he should be that tall.”

She wasn’t short herself and stood at one five feet si but every tshe stood beside Lewis, she still felt petite.

As the two were chatting, a freshly groomed Lewis

Old Mrs. Horton simply asked, “Brat, how tall are you?”

The man looked puzzled, his gaze falling on Keira.

“What's up?”

Keira raised her eyebrows. “Just give it to me.”

Stunned, Lewis pressed his lips together, not speaking.

Old Mrs. Horton then said, “Brat, do as your wife says!”

Lewis lowered his gaze slightly and said to Keira, “Then why don’t you stand up?”

Keira obediently stood up.

She had thought he just wanted to see how much taller he was than her, but to her surprise, the next moment,

he stepped forward, wrapping his arm around her waist, and pulling her into an embrace.

Keira was dumbfounded.

Her brain buzzed for a moment.

He must have just finished working out. Even thr her clothes, she could feel the resilience of the muscles on his

chest. He had just taken a shower. H hair was still dripping, and his damp skin had the grassy scent of the

shower gel.

Keira’s face flushed. Puzzled, she looked up only to see the man looking down at her intently. “Is this okay?”

Keira blinked, “Huh?”

“Shall I continue?”

Keira was perplexed.

Her brain had crashed for several seconds before she

finally realized what was happening and pushed Lewis away in embarrassment. “I mean giveyour height, not

this...”

Lewis then realized his blunder, and his ears instantly turned red.

Old Mrs. Horton burst into laughter beside them. “This is better, much better than a number... Hug more when

you're free. I'd like to have a great-grand

Keira held back her laughter and hurriedly sat do

Lewis couldn't help but glance at her. Her smile wa bright, and the tips of her amorous eyes glistened. S

on the other side of old Mrs. Horton, a voice rang out. “You've just chome, so we've cto join you for

breakfast!”

The voice arrived before the people did.

Turning their heads, they saw Jake Horton's mother, Melissa Knight, walk in with a smile.

Following her cLewis's father, Nathan, Jake’s father and Lewis’s older brother, Oliver, Jake, and Isla.

Once they entered, Fiona immediately arranged for the servants to get busy.

New tableware was brought out from the kitchen one after another and placed on the dining table.

Nathan took a seat directly opposite the long dini table from old Mrs. Horton, which was considered secondary

position of honor.

Oliver sat in the first seat below him, and Jake naturally sat beside him...

Melissa approached Keira and said with a smile, “Miss Olsen, could you please make sroom?”

Keira paused, and before she knew it, Melissa had already moved her cutlery toward the next chair.

Before old Mrs. Horton could speak up, Melissa was already holding her hand, grinning.

“Granny, | cwith good news today!”

Hearing this, Keira glanced subconsciously at Isla’s stomach. Was it this sort of good news?

While pondering, old Mrs. Horton also asked, “What good news?”

Melissa gestured for Isla to cto her side, and Isla moved closer. “Isla has made a big contribution to the

police department, and the department wants to give her a public commendation! For the Horton family, this is

definitely good news!”

A prestigious family like the Hortons valued reputa

above all.

Having a heroic daughter-in-law with a positive im was hugely beneficial for them.

Isla smiled and said, “I was just doing what | should.”

But Melissa shook her head, “That's not how you should see it. You've done splendidly this time. I'll have the

Horton Group’s PR team promote this matter.

You'll marry Jake in glory! In the future, you'll be his

lawful wife! The hostess of this family!”

Isla’s eyes immediately lit up, and her heart bloomed with joy.

She hadn’t expected that Connor would bring her such

honor!

With a sense of triumph, she glanced at Keira and then chuckled. “Auntie, thank you for your kindness.”

Melissa's tone suddenly took a turn. “You deserve it. With such a positive image, you'll represent Jake whenever

you step out. It’s a good investment for the family.”

After that, she looked at Keira, smiled, and added, “Lewis, your wife has been studying abroad for th past two

years. She doesn’t need to rush back. Le take care of family affairs. The police have given honors, and the public

has given good reviews. Sh comes from a decent background, and since she’s presentable, our Horton family will

support her...”

Lewis didn’t say a word.

Melissa then made room. “Come, Isla, sit here! Keep your great-grandmother company for the meal.”

After that, she seemed to remember something and looked toward Keira. “Oh dear, I'm sorry. I've overlooked

Miss Olsen, our guest. But you wouldn't mind, right?”

Keira didn’t say anything.

At that moment, her phone chimed.

Keira took a look and discovered it was Josh from Twitter sending her a message. “Ms. S. I've discovered a

secret! Isla isn’t the hero who exposed Connor. She’s in cahoots with him. | have evidence! I'm going to release it

soon!”
