Keira arrived at her room to find Howard’s mother waiting by the door.
She hastened her steps and frowned. “Is Amy asleep?”
“She’s asleep.”
Howard’s mother’s eyes flickered, and she suddenly took out Amy’s milk bottle. “Tonight, Amy refused
to drink his milk. Taste it and see if it has soured or gone bad!”
Keira narrowed her eyes, sensing there was a problem.
She removed her mask, opened the bottle, and tilted her head back to drink without letting the bottle
touch her lips, to prevent bacterial infection. After taking a sip, she carefully savored it. “It’s not spoiled.”
“Is that so?” Howard’s mother waved her hand. “Maybe she’s full and doesn’t want any more. If not, we
might have to switch to another brand… Drink the rest
yourself. Don’t waste it.”
Keira had gone to the Horton family early in the morning to attend a funeral and hadn’t gotten the
09 10
chance to eat anything at noon, so she was very
hungry now.
She asked with downcast eyes, “Has Mrs. Horton been
buried?”
Howard’s mother said impatiently, “She’s been buried. Why are you asking so many questions? Do you
really think you’re Mrs. Horton’s high school ssmate? You’re really getting into character! Just drink
the milk and stop dawdling!”
Keira’s eyes flickered, and she finished the milk in a few gulps, preparing to take it into her room to
wash the bottle.
Before she could push the door open, Howard’s
mother snatched the bottle away and said with a smile! “I’ll wash it. You’ve been tired all day. Go to
bed!”
After saying that, she took the bottle back to her own
room.
There definitely was a problem!
Howard’s mother was never usually so eager to help.
Had “they”e looking?
Because of anemia, Keira had a certain resistance to
all medications.
She swiped the hotel card to open her door and stepped in.
As soon as she opened the door, Howard walked over. His usual disdain was gone, and he now looked
at Keira with warmth. “You’re back.”
Keira furrowed her brows and before she could speak, Howard said, “It’ste. Go wash up and sleep…
I won’t disturb you!”
He swiftly slipped past Keira and on his way out, he left only one sentence behind. “Amy is with me, so
don’t worry. Just make sure you take good care of the man in the room!”
Keira had already sensed that something w and in that moment, she grabbed Howard’s blocking his
path.
She wanted to see what Howard was up to!
But as she turned around abruptly, she saw the fa figure sitting on the couch and was utterly stunned
Lewis!

Why was he here?!

In the brief moment she was taken aback, Howard had already wriggled free and left the room,
followed by the click of the door lock.
Keira pulled at the door fiercely, but Howard was already outside, securing the door with a chain,
making it impossible to open!
After doing all this, Howard pped his hands.
Hearing Keira trying to push the door from inside, he immediately said, “Keera, make sure you treat Mr.
Horton well, as he can bring immense profits to ourpany, got it?! No resistance allowed! Do you
hear
me?”
Howard’s expression was one of smug satisfactio
Although he had met Uncle Olsen at the funeral, Howard’s subsequent messages werergely ignore
by him.
So when he noticed how much Mrs. Horton resembled
Keera at the funeral, he came up with this idea!
To send Keera to Mr. Horton’s bed, so that afterward
he could establish a connection with the Horton
family!!
Howard’s mother appeared behind him. “Son, can we really do this?”
Howard sneered. “Mom, it’s just sex. Besides, Keera’s health is poor, and she hasn’t gotten pregnant
again in the past few years. It’s impossible for her to bear me another son. I can only count on Cindy.
Keera does have a nice face, and keeping her at home without use until now has finally paid off. I’m not
afraid of living with the humiliation, so what are you worried about?” Cindy was the mistress he had
been keeping outside, and she was now pregnant. The doctor diagnosed it as
a son.
Howard’s mother had always cared deeply for h looking forward to holding her grandson!
Upon hearing these words, Howard’s mother pp him on the back. “That’s not what I mean. I’m talkin
about how Keera is utterly devoted to you; what if s refuses? Wouldn’t it backfire?”
“Don’t worry…” Howard smiled confidently. “I’ve just drugged both of them. That drug is potent; most
people can’t handle it…”

Howard’s mother asked, “Speaking of which, why do Keera and Mrs. Horton look so simr? When I
saw Mrs. Horton’s picture, I got scared. You think… could they be twins?”
Howard stroked his chin. “Keera is an orphan, adopted by her parents. I guess that’s very likely the
case. Mom, we really hit the jackpoting to this funeral! Who would have thought we’d stumble
upon such an opportunity!”
However, Howard’s mother frowned. “If Keera and Mrs. Horton are really twins, can’t we use that
rtionship to connect with Mr. Horton? Why then did you send her to Mr. Horton’s bed?”
Howard waved his hand, “What do you know? His wif is dead, and who keeps in touch with the wife’s
family Although Keera is useless, her face is undeniably beautiful. Send her to Mr. Horton, and he’ll
develop a taste for her. There will definitely be ongoing contact. Besides, if we rely on Keera’s
rtionship with Mrs. Horton, won’t we have to be controlled by Keera? But if we have evidence of
Keera’s infidelity, in the future, won’t I call the shots in this family?”
Howard’s mother’s eyes shone. “Son, you’re so clever!”
The two of them quietly discussed as they returned to
their room.
Inside the room.
Keira didn’t hear their voices, but she had already guessed Howard’s intentions.
She couldn’t help but spit in disdain.
“Keera, what kind of husband have you found for yourself?”
“Keira… it’s really you!”
Behind her, a man’s deep, husky voice mixed with disbelief reached her, causing Keira to stiffen
instantly!
The mask had been removed long ago, and it was n toote to put it back on…
Lewis had already seen her face!
Keira clenched her fists and slowly turned around.
As she looked at Lewis, her eyes were filled with
longing!
Her mother had been kidnapped…
Her sister was dead!

The home she had finally found had just fallen apart. At this moment, it seemed she had only Lewis
left!
This thought made her soul suddenly crumble, and the heat inside her body didn’t want to be
suppressed!
She had been too restrained, and at this moment, she also wanted to properly let it all out!
Forget about the old me, forget about the savior. She wanted to put them all aside for now!
With this thought, Keira headed toward Lewis!
She had just taken a step when her feet suddenly gave out, and she fell into Lewis’ arms…
Lewis had been drugged as well, and though his min had still been clear, upon seeing her face and
smellin the familiar scent on her, he lost hisposure.
He didn’t restrain his yearning and fiercely kissed her lips!
