Chapter 498
Chapter 500: Chapter 499 Chapter 500: Chapter 499 Susan Simpson hadn’t expected such a reversal, especially after Uncle Olsen had dealt with Victoria Olsen so swiftly and decisively, leaving her feeling a chill down her spine.
After Keira Olsen glanced over, Susan Simpson immediately tightened her grip on Peter Olsen’s wrist, then dared not speak.
Keira Olsen simply raised an eyebrow and then entered the banquet hall with Lewis Horton.
Only then did Susan Simpson breathe a sigh of relief, and said to Peter Olsen, “Your little sister is really scary. Will she hold a grudge against me p>
Peter Olsen frowned at her and said, “Susan, how could you bring that up in front of the two gentlemen of the Horton Family? It’s lucky that the gigolo was Lewis Horton, otherwise today, the Olsen Family would have lost all face p>
Hearing this, Susan Simpson immediately cast her eyes down, “Peter, I’m sorry, I didn’t understand the situation. I didn’t recognize those two just now. If I’d known, I definitely wouldn’t have mentioned it p>
Peter Olsen sighed after hearing her explanation, then said after a long pause, “Be more careful in the future p>
“I know p>
Susan Simpson coquettishly moved on, entering the banquet hall with Peter Olsen.
Lewis Horton’s birthday party officially began, everyone chatting and laughing as if the earlier incident had never happened.
The only one not in the mood in the entire banquet hall was Jake Horton.
He stood to the side, zombie-like, still finding it amusing.
He picked up his phone and opened a photo of Keira Olsen, taken during a sports event at university.
At that time, he had signed Keira Olsen up for the sprinting event.
Keira Olsen was very unhappy about it, annoyed at his presumption, and glared at him for a long while.
Jake Horton had then smiled ingratiatingly, “Keira Olsen, don’t always be so aloof, sometimes you need to blend in with your classmates p>
Keira Olsen had walked off without a word.
He had thought she would miss the event, but to his surprise, on the day of the competition when they called her name, she appeared on the track.
And she even won first place for her class.
The photo on the phone was one he had secretly taken as Keira Olsen crossed the finish line.
Her expression was determined, not a drop of sweat on her face after running four hundred meters, her hair tied in a high ponytail, youthful and radiant…
Jake Horton couldn’t help but touch the face on the screen and murmured, “Keira, do you see this? This man who professed his love for you, the man you once loved, is now about to introduce his new fiancee to everyone… If you were still here, would it pain your heart p>
He muttered under his breath and turned off the phone screen.
He then saw Lewis Horton take the stage, said a few quick words as an introductory greeting, announced Horton Group’s official venture into Clance enterprise.
Next, was the opening dance of the banquet.
He gracefully descended the high platform like a gentleman, walking towards the crowd.
The crowd immediately scattered, and he approached a girl in a blue gown…
Jake Horton chuckled bitterly, but the next moment, his eyes widened in astonishment.
Because, the girl Lewis Horton was holding, smiling radiantly, looked exactly like the girl of his dreams!
Could she be Keira Olsen p>
Jake Horton was shocked.
How could this be!
No.. she wasn’t!
Keira Olsen had a mole near her eye, but the woman in front of him didn’t.
Even though they felt very similar…
At that moment, Jake Horton suddenly realized why Lewis Horton had suddenly fallen for someone else, that’s what it was…
He had found a substitute for Keira Olsen!
Realizing this, Jake Horton suddenly felt a tightness in his chest.
He abruptly turned around, twisting his head and leaving the banquet hall.
In this world, no one could replace Keira Olsen, not even someone who looked exactly like her!
Keira Olsen had long since forgotten such a person as Jake Horton existed, let alone known about the drama king who had just run out, brooding alone.
After she had finished dancing with Lewis Horton, the surrounding crowd began to approach her one by one to offer their congratulations.
Most of these people she didn’t recognize, with James Olsen playing the role of commentator, introducing each of them to her.
The five major families of Clance were all present.
She nearly met all the members of each family.
When it was Austin Gill’s turn, his face was full of astonishment, “So that gigolo was actually Lewis Horton! No wonder you announced your relationship so arrogantly, not hiding it at all p>
Keira Olsen simply asked, “Has Nara Gill woken up p>
Austin Gill immediately hung his head despondently and shook his head.
Keira Olsen didn’t say anything else, just nodded, ready to greet the next person.
But at that moment, Austin Gill spoke up, “Oh, by the way, the contract process between our two companies has just been completed, we are now in the signing stage p>
Keira Olsen was stunned at hearing this.
She abruptly stopped in her tracks, looking directly at him, “When was the process completed p>
Austin Gill spoke up, “Just now, our legal department worked overtime today, personally stamped the contract and sent it to you, and you’ve also stamped and returned it, our cooperation has officially started p>
As he spoke these words, Keira Olsen distinctly felt her handbag vibrate.
She immediately opened her handbag, took out her phone, and saw the message from the number that had been assigning her tasks.
The message was about her third task…
But upon seeing the content of the third task, Keira Olsen was utterly astonished!
