Chapter 183
Chapter 185: Chapter 185 Chapter 185: Chapter 185 Uncle Olsen is an elder, by rights we should go greet him.
Moreover, there’s the matter between Lewis Horton and Uncle Olsen…
He only pondered for a moment before agreeing, then turned his gaze towards Keira Olsen.
Seeing this, Keira Olsen walked over to him.
Ellis Olsen couldn’t help but cough, thinking of Mrs. Olsen and Keira Olsen’s conflicting identities, and recalling how Keira Olsen had saved him on horseback, he couldn’t resist reminding her, “My uncle has a very cold personality, if you speak less when you meet him, he probably won’t make things difficult for you p>
Just as Keira Olsen was about to nod, she heard Lewis Horton say, “You don’t need to go, just stay here with Mrs. Olsen p>
Keira Olsen was startled.
Ellis Olsen was surprised too, “Hey, Lewis Horton, do you even understand manners? Uncle Olsen is still an elder after all, he is here, and you are not taking your wife to see him p>
Lewis Horton, however, ignored him completely, simply patting Keira Olsen’s hand, “Don’t worry p>
Uncle Olsen was a forceful man, and upon seeing Keira Olsen he would definitely make things difficult for her.
Knowing this, Lewis Horton couldn’t possibly let Keira Olsen go and seek humiliation.
Leaving these words behind, he turned and walked out the door.
Keira Olsen stood in place, watching his retreating figure.
Ellis Olsen made a “tsk tsk” sound with his mouth, then looked Keira Olsen up and down, “I really don’t know what’s so good about you, for Lewis Horton to offend my uncle on your behalf. Keira Olsen, are you really not going to go take a look? If you go, at most Uncle Olsen will scold you a bit, but if you don’t go, Lewis Horton and my uncle might really clash p>
Keira Olsen glanced at him indifferently and said softly, “I trust him p>
She had lived with her grandmother alongside Lewis Horton for so long, she understood to some extent the daily affairs he was busy with.
Lewis Horton was not as simple as he appeared to be, he seemed to have his own influence outside of the Horton Group.
Without dwelling on it, Keira Olsen walked to the nearby sofa and sat there quietly watching Mrs. Olsen.
Isla Olsen saw this and followed him out again.
Outside.
Upon leaving, Lewis Horton headed straight for Uncle Olsen.
Uncle Olsen was still leaning against the wall, just shifting his gaze to him, his eyes gradually becoming sharper, “I heard you married the Olsen Family’s illegitimate daughter p>
The sentence was cold as ice, fitting his usual way of speaking, which made it difficult to discern his emotions.
The following Isla Olsen’s face lit up with joy, thinking Uncle Olsen was going to stand up for her!
She directly looked at Jake Horton.
Jake Horton immediately understood his intention and spoke up directly, “Uncle, can you have your bodyguards withdraw? Having them stand guard by the door like this is really affecting my mother-in-law’s medical treatment p>
Uncle Olsen immediately knitted his brows, once again turning his attention to Lewis Horton, “There are bodyguards too p>
Isla Olsen then lowered her head, revealing a wronged expression, “Keira Olsen made my mother faint from anger. My dad and I didn’t want her staying by my mother’s side, so uncle brought bodyguards to take control of the ward p>
Uncle Olsen immediately looked towards her.
Isla Olsen’s tearful appearance was very unappealing to him, so he looked back at Lewis Horton, “Shouldn’t you give me an explanation p>
Jake Horton and Isla Olsen were immediately looking excitedly towards Lewis Horton.
But Lewis Horton simply stated coolly, “Yeah, it’s too noisy, so I had a bodyguard keep watch at the door, to keep just anyone from barging in and upsetting Mrs. Olsen p>
Isla Olsen immediately bit her lip, “Uncle, it’s my mother! I have the right to decide who can come in and who can’t! And about Keira Olsen, my mother fainted because of her, you take her away, I don’t want my mother’s first sight upon waking to be her! What if she gets upset again p>
Uncle Olsen’s gaze towards Lewis Horton was deep and filled with an imposing aura.
It seemed as though if the answer from Lewis Horton didn’t satisfy him, he definitely wouldn’t let the matter go.
Lewis Horton remained calm throughout, and seeing that Uncle Olsen had finished his cigarette, he took a pack out of his pocket and handed one to Uncle Olsen.
Uncle Olsen took it subconsciously and continued to look at him.
Lewis Horton said, “I guessed you might come, so I prepared some cigarettes, but I don’t smoke, so I don’t carry a lighter with me p>
Uncle Olsen paused for a moment.
He took out his own lighter, lit the cigarette, and then began to speak, “Don’t think that giving me a cigarette will get you off the hook, now talk p>
Lewis Horton started, “Before Mrs. Olsen fainted, she was holding Kiera’s hand as if she had something to say, and as for the bodyguards, it’s impossible to withdraw them p>
Isla Olsen immediately frowned.
She hadn’t expected Lewis Horton to be so assertive in front of Uncle Olsen!
She looked at Uncle Olsen, seemingly waiting for an explanation, but saw Uncle Olsen indifferently lower his eyes, “Don’t disturb her p>
Lewis Horton stated, “The bodyguard is there to ensure Mrs. Olsen isn’t disturbed, you can rest assured about that p>
Uncle Olsen nodded and then… fell silent?
Isla Olsen was bewildered.
She looked at Uncle Olsen in shock and then turned to Lewis Horton. Putting together their conversation since they met and the fact that Lewis Horton had prepared the cigarettes, she suddenly understood something, “Uncle Olsen, do you know my uncle p>
“Hmm, we’ve had dealings before p>
Uncle Olsen’s response was as cold as ever.
Isla Olsen: p>
Lewis Horton looked at her, “Mr. Olsen and I still have things to discuss, you go into the ward first p>
Isla Olsen and Jake Horton didn’t dare defy the order and entered the room.
Once they had entered, Uncle Olsen turned his gaze to him, “I told you to visit the Olsen Family to see how they were doing and to check if the illegitimate daughter had disturbed Mrs. Olsen at all. Who gave you permission to marry that illegitimate daughter p>
The tone finally changed from the icy demeanor before, carrying a hint of reproach.
Lewis Horton looked down.
When Jake Horton and Isla Olsen got engaged, he, as the head of the Horton Family, personally accompanied Jake to the Olsen Family, all because Uncle Olsen asked him to take a look at how Mrs. Olsen was doing.
As for why he married Keira Olsen…
He didn’t offer much explanation, “Because I like her p>
Uncle Olsen frowned, “Then take good care of her, and if she really causes discomfort to Miss South, I won’t spare her for your sake p>
Lewis Horton also responded assertively, “The couple is one, if you dare lay a hand on her, then I’ll have no choice but to stand by her side p>
Uncle Olsen chuckled coldly, “The wolf cub has grown up, daring to challenge me. Do you think you can compete with me p>
Lewis Horton replied lightly, “Let’s try and see p>
Inside the ward.
They couldn’t hear the conversation outside clearly, and Ellis Olsen was getting anxious, “What are my Uncle and Lewis Horton talking about? Are they going to fight? I hope they do, let Lewis Horton taste what it’s like to be suppressed, so he won’t be too arrogant p>
As they talked, Keira Olsen’s phone suddenly rang.
She hung up directly.
But it rang again, and Keira Olsen frowned and glanced at the screen, ultimately deciding to take her phone and step outside to the corridor to answer it, not to disturb Mrs. Olsen.
Keira Olsen opened the ward door and walked straight out.
