My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire!

Chapter 408



Keira knew that Uncle Olsen was allowing her to

provide an explanation and statement to the public, and she slowly said, “I was blind in my youth, but now I’ve learned my lesson.”

She scoffed and looked toward everyone, speaking indifferently. “A hero is not judged by the past, but by the future. Besides, there is a saying in Crera, ‘A prodigal who returns is more precious than gold.’ If a prodigal can return, why can’t a woman do the same?”

Her words left everyone in a momentary stun.

Upon regaining their senses and giving it some thought, it seemed to be indeed the case.

It appeared that Crera was always particularly tolerant toward boys as if they only needed to learn from their mistakes to be praised.

Joseph’s daughter immediately retorted angrily. “Women lose too much in marriage! Do you think just

by saying a few words like this, everyone will respect you? Ask around. Who here would want to marry you?”

Upon hearing this, Uncle Olsen immediately scanned the people present at the scene.

Most of those who had come today were relatives of the Olsen family.

The Olsen family’s banquet wasn’t held on a large scale without inviting the five major families to come over, mainly because it was organized in haste. This was also one of the reasons James thought the event was too small; he had believed it was merely an introduction to their “aunt”.

But the Olsen family had many relatives by marriage, and there were quite a few eligible bachelors prese

At that moment, upon hearing her words, some men immediately lowered their heads, not wanting to marry a woman who was having a second marriage with a

child. It was too troublesome!

When those from families in less fortunate

circumstances heard the question, their eyes gleamed slightly.

She was the Olsen family’s legitimate daughter. Judging by the affection Uncle Olsen showed, plus the gifts the Olsen brothers had just given to her, they could be free from worry if they married her!

Thus, some people could hardly restrain themselves and were about to stand up.

But just then, they suddenly felt a gaze, no, seven gazes falling upon them. A man turned his head to look and saw the seven Olsen brothers looking at him with stern expressions.

Although they didn’t speak, their intent was very clear.

The Olsen’s legitimate daughter couldn’t marry someone of his status!

The man was so scared that he immediately froze.

Those of lower status didn’t dare to move, and those of

higher status didn’t want to move. So after Joseph’s daughter finished speaking, indeed, not a single person came forward.

Seeing this situation, James grew anxious and immediately signaled to his friends nearby with his

eyes.

Although he didn’t understand why his uncle allowed

this woman to belittle his cousin, his cousin couldn’t be looked down upon by others!

But his friends were facing away from him and didn’t catch his signals.

James was speechless

He was so anxious!

He immediately looked at Charles, asking with his eyes, “What about your friends? Hurry up and stand up for

our sister!”

Charles waved his phone and returned a glance. “Sent them a WhatsApp message, but not a single one is responding! Damn them!”

James didn’t know what to say.

At this point, he wished he knew the art of disguise, so he could change his appearance and stand up for her!

The rest of the brothers were equally anxious, but Ellis sat there calmly, which irritated James greatly!

What was going on with Ellis? How could he be so indifferent toward his dear cousin?

Unable to restrain himself, he complained, “Ellis, why aren’t you worried?”

Ellis picked up the wine in front of him and downed it in one gulp. “What’s there to worry about? The Hortons aren’t here yet.”

When the dowry arrived, everyone would soon know which daughter of the Olsen family was to wed into the Horton family!

Uncle Olsen allowed Joseph’s daughter to berate Keera, and of course, it wasn’t without aim.

Keera’s past indeed was quite scandalous to speak of. She was seen as a love-struck fool and a mother who was almost swindled out of her inheritance. When people in this circle heard of it, they wouldn’t pity her but would only think her foolish.

Society nowadays was an impatient one.

Even if she were to be given the status of the legitimate Olsen daughter, she would never gain everyone’s respect.

Therefore, if she wished to establish a foothold in the

circle, she would have to speak out and then fiercely

alan their focool

Joseph’s daughter, seeing that no one had yet stood up, immediately said, “See? Someone of high birth. would never fancy someone like her, a used woman! Keera, if you want to marry, there is indeed someone perfect for you!”

With these words, she turned to look at Victoria.

Victoria immediately cast down her gaze, avoiding her

eyes.

But she took out her phone and sent a message. Soon, footsteps were heard at the entrance.

Then, a man and an old woman appeared there.

It was none other than Keera’s ex-husband Howard

and former mother-in-law! novelbin

Victoria’s eyes twinkled slightly when she saw these

two.

It was a surprise she had arranged for Keera to humiliate her at the family banquet!

When Howard and his mother were brought in, their faces were full of eager smiles, especially Howard’s mother, who had never seen such an extravagant banquet and was utterly transfixed.

They had been living rather poorly for some time.

Before Howard’s divorce, Cindy would call her “mom” affectionately, making her very happy. But after the divorce, when Howard didn’t find another job, Cindy’s attitude changed completely.

She would quarrel with Howard’s mother all the time, making the household miserable!

Howard did nothing but drink and smoke all day long.

A few days ago, Cindy couldn’t take it anymore and threatened to kick them both out of the house.

Howard’s mother was furious and longed for the days

when she lived with Keera.

Back then, Keera worked tirelessly doing household chores and taking care of the children without ever troubling her, and every meal was delicious…

Compared to those days, what condition was she living

in now?

Howard’s mother sighed deeply, unable to help salivating over the banquet food, barely restraining herself from rushing over to snatch something to eat.

But there was no choice.

Since Cindy withheld money, the food they cooked at

home every day tasted terrible, and sometimes they couldn’t even get enough to eat…

During this period, she even went to the South

residence but was stopped by the security guard and wasn’t allowed in….

Howard’s mother swallowed and, suppressing the urge to dash over and grab some food, followed Howard toward the main table.

Then she saw Keira, and her eyes immediately lit up. She rushed forward, intent on grabbing Keira’s arm. “My dear daughter-in-law, I’ve finally found you! That Cindy is no good. I was wrong. I apologize! Please take me back home!”

Keira looked at her coldly, scoffing, and instinctively glanced toward Victoria.

Victoria’s eyes flashed with guilt immediately.

All these actions were noticed by Uncle Olsen, who frowned and sighed inwardly.

That adopted daughter… perhaps they shouldn’t keep her in the family anymore…
