Chapter 489
Chapter 491: Chapter 490 Chapter 491: Chapter 490 James Olsen angrily turned around and directly grabbed the person next to him, about to leave.
Charles Olsen also had a furious expression on his face.
The rest of the Olsen family all furrowed their brows and stood directly in front of Keira Olsen, then said to her, “Keera, don’t worry, the Hortons are showing such disrespect, it seems they no longer want to continue this marriage! Our Olsen daughters have no shortage of suitors! Let’s go, we’re leaving now p>
Aunt and Uncle Olsen also spoke up, “Right, our Olsen family isn’t that desperate to marry off! Keera, let’s hurry up and leave p>
Charles Olsen nodded as well, “Sister, don’t be afraid, without Lewis Horton, I will find someone even better for you p>
The others also nodded in agreement.
Even Peter Olsen spoke up, “That’s right, if they are unsatisfied with the young sister, they should just say so. There’s no need to humiliate us like this p>
“I really can’t swallow this insult! Let’s go, the Horton family dares to treat our Olsen family with such contempt, it’s outrageous p>
At a time when the Olsen family was angry, the butler just chuckled and said, “I’m really sorry, our family indeed has an engagement, there are already many guests who have arrived, and we are speaking with them, we obviously can’t leave them and come to welcome you, can we? After all, we are all family, there’s no need to make a fuss about it, right p>
After finishing speaking, he looked toward the only girl in the crowd, “This must be Miss Olsen, right? Our hostess said that once Miss Olsen marries into our family, she will become the hostess of the Horton family. On occasions like today, she would also need to help welcome guests. If possible, perhaps you can start by welcoming some female guests at the entrance today p>
This statement was getting more and more outrageous!
The Olsen family’s faces turned livid.
Uncle Olsen immediately exclaimed angrily, “Our Olsen daughter has to endure this kind of insult even before marrying into the family? What will it be like after she marries, won’t she be treated like a slave? Let me tell you, our Olsen daughter is a princess cherished in the palms of our hands, a treasure! Not someone your family can mistreat at will p>
After uttering these words, he looked directly at Uncle Olsen, “Old three, it’s your call to make. Just say the word, and our Olsen family will go all-out, we can’t be treated this way p>
Keira Olsen had been silent, observing the reactions of her brothers.
All five brothers were filled with righteous indignation, evidently unified with the Olsen family, none seeming to be the sort involved in underhanded dealings.
As for the only brother, Charles Olsen… this one was the angriest of all!
It was even less likely that he was the one who leaked the information about Ellis Olsen to Austin Gill…
While Keira Olsen was thinking, Uncle Olsen looked at her, “Keera, what do you think p>
In front of outsiders, Uncle Olsen still addressed her as Keera to avoid revealing the truth.
Then Keira Olsen touched her chin, looked at the butler, and scoffed, “It seems this new butler of the Horton family doesn’t recognize the owner and there’s no point making a fuss with him p>
At this comment, Uncle Olsen chuckled softly.
The middle-aged man laughed in such a way that had a unique charm.
Both Uncle Olsen and Keira Olsen knew that the first branch of the Horton family had never given up hope of seizing control of the Horton family leadership. Lewis Horton was probably busy, and they were taking advantage of his absence to cause trouble.
If the Olsen family were to just leave now and call off the engagement with Lewis Horton, they would fall right into the first branch’s plot.
Uncle Olsen certainly wouldn’t fuss over these matters.
The person he valued was Lewis Horton, not these irrelevant Hortons.
As Keira Olsen spoke, the newly arrived butler was momentarily stunned and then became annoyed, “Miss Olsen, how can you insult someone? Is this the quality of the Olsen family p>
Keira Olsen indifferently responded, “My manners are for humans, not for dogs p>
“You p>
“Alright, let’s go inside, don’t block the entrance p>
Keira Olsen took the lead and walked directly into the hall.
The rest of the Olsen family members glanced at each other, rushed to follow her step.
Although they didn’t understand why the younger sister was not taking this to heart, they couldn’t possibly let her enter the Horton family alone, as it would be too humiliating!
James Olsen swiftly took a few steps forward and blocked the way.
Charles Olsen also hurried to stay by Keira Olsen’s side…
Mr. Olsen and Uncle Olsen glanced at Uncle Olsen, seeing his usual calm demeanor with not a trace of anger, and couldn’t help but ask, “Old three, are you just going to swallow this insult p>
Uncle Olsen smiled, “Once you get inside, you’ll understand p>
As the two entered, bewildered but still followed Uncle Olsen inside.
People standing around watching immediately started murmuring, and someone laughed,
“I thought the Olsen family would leave, but despite how negligently the Hortons treated them, they still went inside. How desperate they must be not to leave a daughter unmarried p>
“That’s what I’m saying. To be able to climb up to Mr. Horton, this daughter of the Olsen family who has been married before definitely won’t let go p>
“If she won’t let go, then she should take care of the gigolo outside… Keeping one outside and still daring to come to the Hortons so openly… I really don’t know how the Olsen family has such thick skins p>
“Indeed, the Hortons have already expressed their displeasure, they were just giving her a way out. If I were Uncle Olsen, I would have ended the engagement right away. It would have spared both families any trouble p>
As people gossiped, Keira Olsen walked into the Horton family’s grand hall surrounded by her family.
Where were the Hortons busy? They were sitting leisurely on the sofas chatting, clearly not busy, thus the housekeeper’s earlier statement was obviously a lie!
They didn’t even bother to cover it up!
Seeing this, James Olsen became furious again, “Big sister, I’ll go argue with them right now p>
“No need,” Keira Olsen lightly lowered her eyes, “it’s not necessary p>
Today was Lewis Horton’s birthday party, and there was no need to make a scene. Once Lewis Horton came out… everything would become clear.
Being pointed out by others now didn’t bother her in the least.
Just then, a commotion suddenly emerged from the crowd, and soon someone was supporting an elderly person as they slowly walked down the stairs.
“Who is that p>
James Olsen asked.
Someone immediately replied, “That must be Old Mrs. Horton, right? I heard Mr. Horton respects this grandmother a lot, she must have come downstairs especially after hearing that the Olsen family had arrived p>
“I knew the Hortons wouldn’t be so rude. The Olsen family, after all, is the foremost of the Five Great Families. The Hortons having just arrived in Clance wouldn’t dare provoke the Olsen family like this p>
As everyone spoke, Old Mrs. Horton had already reached the ground floor, and the butler announced, “Old Mrs. Horton, the Olsen family has arrived. Over there p>
As Old Mrs. Horton heard this, thinking of Lewis Horton’s fiancee, she instinctively looked in the direction where the Olsen family was standing…
