How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 127 -
Chapter 127: Chapter 127
After sending the message, Keira Olsen finally turned to look at Lewis Horton.
He didn’t seem to have made an effort to dress up today.
Yet Keira noticed he had changed into a wrinkle-free shirt, and his jacket also seemed to be new…
With a tall and sturdy figure, he was well-suited for suits; overall, his long legs were particularly eye-catching.
Very handsome and refined.
Keira’s attire was casual, an apricot sweater paired with light-colored jeans, full of youthful vibes.
Standing together, the two were a sight for sore eyes.
On Lewis’s side, the gifts were already prepared, and as Tom Davis finished loading up the car, he came in and said, “Mr. Horton, Miss Olsen, the car is loaded, we can depart now.”
Both of them nodded and headed towards the parking lot.
Old Mrs. Horton waved and laughed from behind, “Fiona, look at this handsome young man and beautiful young woman. Oh my, I wonder how cute my great-grandchildren will be!”
Keira, who had just stepped out the door, almost tripped over herself when she heard this!
She and Lewis Horton had just made a bit of progress, and the old lady was already imagining great-grandchildren?
She looked at Lewis Horton, torn between laughter and tears.
She saw the man’s ears turn slightly red.
The two got into the Bentley limousine, and the car drove off.
Keira Olsen had never thought of competing with Isla Olsen for anything, so she didn’t pay much attention to the gifts they brought, simply stating, “Mrs. Olsen has never judged someone based on their status, nor has she looked down on anyone because of their background. So maybe later, she might not speak to you with that much respect…”
Lewis Horton immediately laughed, “Miss Olsen, you might have some misunderstandings about me.”
Keira paused.
Lewis Horton continued, “I am very respectful towards elders, and my upbringing also doesn’t allow me to do anything inappropriate.”
Keira curled her lips, suddenly laughed, “Is that so? How come I remember someone previously who absolutely wouldn’t believe that we were married and felt everywhere that I was pestering him? Seemed like he had the security chase me away several times.”
…
Lewis Horton choked, then explained, “I didn’t understand at that time, I…”
“Just teasing you.”
Keira Olsen interrupted him and started laughing.
Mentioning this, Tom Davis got curious, “Miss Olsen, you can’t blame the boss; your marriage was quite unbelievable. Nowadays everything is connected, and the courthouses are strict; how could it be possible to get married without both parties being present… However, I remember back then Miss Olsen had several identities, all part-time jobs, right?”
Keira Olsen nodded, “Yes, I moved out of the Olsen family in junior high and didn’t have living expenses, so I looked for part-time jobs.”
At this, Tom Davis was shocked, “You were underage at that time, right?”
“Right, so I could only do odd jobs and some manual labor.”
Keira seemed to remember those difficult days, a hint of nostalgia in her gaze, “Actually, when I think about it, I was quite happy during that time.”
Without the oppression of being labeled an illegitimate daughter, without Poppy Hill’s nagging, and without the mountainous pressure from Isla Olsen hanging over her…
Even though she lived a solitary and impoverished life during that period, it was when she felt the most free.
Tom Davis sighed, “Then you must have had a hard time.”
“It was alright,” Keira Olsen said lightly.
She wasn’t downplaying her past struggles; she truly felt it was okay.
Back then, she took on many jobs and eventually established her own company as she started to succeed. Later on, she became Dr. South, and handed over those small companies to Samuel Morgan to manage.
By now, she owned a maintenance service factory, a private kitchen restaurant, a courier company… oh, and it seemed like there was also a construction crew.
She had even carried bricks on a construction site back then!
As Keira Olsen thought of this, she turned her head to look outside the vehicle.
The weather was getting colder, and unexpectedly, a light rain began to fall.
In Oceanion down south, it had never snowed, this winter rain was damp and chilly.
The car was driving steadily on the road.
Suddenly, Keira spotted someone on a construction site ahead, wearing a yellow safety helmet, dressed in filthy work clothes, their face also dirty and wet from the rain.
They stretched out their gloved hands above their head, helplessly gazing at the wretched weather, seemingly trying to dash from the construction site to the 24-hour convenience store across the street to take shelter from the rain.
Suddenly, Keira was reminded of her own first job. After finding that many places wouldn’t hire a minor, she had no choice but to take up work carrying bricks on a construction site.
It was on a rainy day, just like this, on her first day at work.
She had no umbrella, and even less the luxury to afford a taxi ride.
She had to run home through the rainy night, soaking wet.
Back then, if someone had held an umbrella over her head…
As she was thinking about this, Keira suddenly spoke up, “Could we pull over for a moment?”
The driver was puzzled but followed her request and stopped the car by the roadside.
Keira Olsen picked up a blue umbrella she had placed by her feet when she left home, got out of the car, and ran over to the construction site, thrusting the umbrella into the worker’s hands.
The worker was taken aback for a moment, and a trace of joy appeared on his muddy indistinct face as he said in a slightly odd tone, “Thank you, much appreciated!”
Keira Olsen waved her hand dismissively and ran back to the car.
“Let’s go.”
The car slowly started moving, and Keira curled up the corners of her lips. The umbrella she had just given away felt as if it were for the younger, helpless version of herself.
She didn’t see that after their car had taken a turn, a luxury car suddenly pulled over by the roadside.
Then two bodyguards in black emerged with a large black umbrella from the car, approached the very worker Keira had just given the umbrella to, and said, “We are sorry, boss. Traffic jam, we arrived late. How was your inspection of the construction site?”
The man glanced at the blue umbrella in his hand and hooked his lips, “Using Crera’s words, it was quite fruitful!”
After saying that, he got into the car, not caring that he dirtied the back seat. He carefully placed the blue umbrella down and then said, “Go find out where that Bentley in front went to.”
“Yes.”
…
Keira Olsen had no idea that she had just shown kindness to a real estate magnate. At this moment, they were nearly at the Olsen family’s home, just a turn away.
The Olsen Family.

Mrs. Olsen, keeping an eye on the time, and Taylor Olsen, along with Isla Olsen and Jake Horton, stepped out to the living room entrance, ready to welcome Keira Olsen and her new husband.
Taylor Olsen couldn’t help himself and said, “Shirley, you’re just too polite. They are the younger ones, and not from any respectable family, do we really need so many people to greet them?”
Yet, Mrs. Olsen frowned, “We cannot measure a person by their status.”
In the midst of their conversation, a car stopped in front of the Olsen family home.
Mrs. Olsen’s face lit up with joy, she stepped forward and looked directly into the car, “Keira, you’ve arrived, and your husband is…?”
But then, everyone was stunned.
