My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！

Chapter 197  Turn Around

Seeing the police car, Uncle Olsen's eyes flickered for a moment. "Someone called the police?"

Lewis recognized Holly. Seeing her hurried demeanor, he knew she must be there to help Keira. He didn't expose this connection and simply said indifferently, "Isn't it better that the police are here? If Keira really pushed Isla, she can be dealt with by the law!"

Uncle Olsen stared at him. "Brat, don't play tricks in front of me. I've said it, even if that illegitimate daughter didn't push Isla, since Miss Olsen slandered her, then I'll make her pay the price!"

Having said that, he got out of the car.

Lewis immediately followed. "Uncle Olsen would like to go upstairs to have a look?"

Uncle Olsen lowered his gaze and pondered for a moment before looking at Ellis. "You keep an eye on them, and if Isla suffers any disadvantage, come and call for people."

Ellis nodded and then ran upstairs.

After he left, Uncle Olsen then turned to Lewis. "If Miss Jodie and her daughter are wronged, I don't mind leveling this place to the ground!"

Lewis looked him in the eye, "Uncle Olsen, I return the sentiment! If my wife is wronged, I won't hesitate to cross swords with you!"

...

Upstairs.

Keira looked at the gathering of journalists, her lips curling into a cold smile.

If the first branch of the family wanted to bring down Lewis, then she certainly wasn't going to let Isla off the hook...

Keira glanced around at the people, and once the reporters quieted down, she spoke in a clear, frosty voice. "First, I didn't intentionally hurt anyone, and second, the child that Isla lost wasn't a Horton!"

Her voice was very clear, allowing the reporters to hear her.

The reporters were all in an uproar. "What is going on? Why would she say that?"

Keira said, "Isla has had an affair with another man, and the child she lost wasn't Jake's. Fearing that the Horton family would discover after the birth, she slandered me, claiming I pushed her, and took the opportunity to terminate the pregnancy..."

Melissa interrupted her with a tearful complaint. "Stop making excuses for your wrongdoing, and stop slandering my daughter-in-law with your nonsensical words here. It's ridiculous! Clearly, you and Lewis did something wrong, and yet you seek to throw dirt on us..."

The reporters looked back and forth between Melissa and Keira, unsure whom to believe.

One of them said, "Mrs. Horton, do you have any evidence for what you're saying?"

Keira nodded. "Of course."

Just then, Tom already had a DNA test report in hand, walking toward them. He didn't hand it to Keira but directly presented it to Melissa, "This is the DNA comparison result between the miscarried child and Mr. Jake. Please have a look."

Melissa sneered at Keira before examining the report.

At that moment, Isla and Poppy also came rushing out.

Upon seeing the report, Poppy immediately panicked and looked at Isla, "Isla, what do we do now? I—I'll go and snatch the report back!"

But Isla lowered her gaze, nervously clenching her fingers.

She said, "That won't be necessary."

Then she took two steps toward Melissa.

Melissa glanced at the report, and her gaze instantly fixated on the three words "not a match."

A flicker of surprise flashed across her face, which quickly turned into a fierce glare at Isla, "You..."

Before she could finish speaking, Isla squeezed her hand and said, "Melissa, it's my fault that I've caused everyone so much trouble. Keira is an illegitimate daughter of my family, and she has always held a grudge against me. That's why she pushed me... It's my mistake. I failed to protect mine and Jake's child..."

Indignation flashed across Melissa's face.

That child was clearly not Jake's!!

Jake had also walked up to the two of them. "Mom, show everyone this report. The Horton Group's test results all have their own security marks. Let me see if this report is fake!"

An embarrassed look flashed across Melissa's face.

Of course, she knew about the security marks; the report was real!

She bit her lip, her thoughts went through several changes, and she finally clenched the report in her hand. She looked at Isla and said directly, "I didn't expect this report to be fake. Isla, I feel so sorry for you. When you were at your own home, you were targeted by that illegitimate daughter. But now that you're in the Horton family, with me and Jake to stand up for you, we'll never let you be wronged again! Today, Keira and Lewis must give you an explanation!!"

Keira furrowed her brows upon hearing this.

She didn't expect Melissa to cover for Isla!

Wasn't the fact that Isla's child wasn't Jake's supposed to enrage the first branch of the family?

But she quickly realized...

She was wrong. These reporters weren't called here by Melissa but by Isla!!

In front of so many reporters, if Melissa were to expose Isla's true colors, it would only make the first branch of the family look incompetent, allowing a daughter-in-law who could cause such a scandal.

Moreover, her recent tearful complaint to the reporters was just to tarnish Lewis's reputation as domineering and overbearing! n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

So, even if she found out now that Isla had deceived her, she wouldn't and couldn't expose her lies!

Keira's gaze fell on Isla again.

She had always known that her sister was scheming, but she didn't expect that at such a time, she still had back-up plans.

Since Melissa couldn't expose her now, to get Jake to divorce her, other excuses would have to be found... At least in the short term, they couldn't divorce; otherwise, it would easily lead to speculation from the outside.

This move by Isla was indeed formidable!

Isla breathed a sigh of relief, knowing she had gambled correctly!

She clenched her fists tightly and bowed her head, and suddenly her eyes reddened. "Keira, I really don't know why you hate me so much! It was you and your mom who ruined my family; why do you have to push me so hard? I've said that I won't hold you accountable for the miscarriage, so why do you have to create a fake paternity test report?"

A harsh light flickered in her eyes.

As long as the first branch of the family insisted the report was fake, then Keira's report would be rendered useless!

The child was already lost; she could now firmly claim that the embryo they had left behind wasn't hers but was slandered by Keira!

Jake also said angrily, "Keira, the tricks you and Uncle Lewis use are just too despicable!! The child is already gone; now isn't it just your word against ours!"

Isla feigned tears. "Keira, the matter of the report is clear now. Do you have any other evidence to say the child wasn't mine?"

Keira's jaw tensed; she hadn't expected to encounter such a situation where, in the face of absolute evidence, these people still refused to admit it.

She chuckled derisively, and just as she was about to speak, Holly's voice suddenly rang out, "Who says there's no evidence?!"
