His body was very cool.
Especially the breath from his mouth was like a pool of clear water, making Kiera wish she could immerse herself in it.
During the time she and Lewis Horton had spent together, it could be said that there was mutual affection. In fact, to go with the flow wouldn’t be a problem at all.
This thought almost made Kiera give up resisting.
…No.
Kiera suddenly became clear-headed.
She and Lewis Horton only had a mutual liking for each other, but they had never explicitly expressed their feelings. They shouldn’t…
With this thought, she suddenly bit Lewis Horton’s lip.
A sweet, bloody taste instantly filled their mouths.
Lewis Horton, in pain, released her, and his intoxicated eyes suddenly became sober.
The two looked at each other for a moment; then, the man abruptly stood up.
Kiera also hurriedly backed away, putting distance between them.
Lewis Horton rubbed his temples, looked down at his own disheveled and embarrassing state, and quickly said, “I, I’m going to take a cold shower.”
Leaving these words behind, he rushed into the bathroom.
Kiera felt her cheeks turning red as well.
She patted her cheeks and took out a medicine bottle from her pocket. After swallowing a pill, the discomfort in her body gradually subsided.
She couldn’t help but look at herself in the mirror.
Her cheeks were flushed, her eyes were springlike, and the sight was simply embarrassing.
She quickly shifted her gaze away.
About ten minutes later, Lewis Horton came out of the bathroom enveloped in a chill. He wore a bathrobe, his tall figure and sharp facial features unmistaken.
His earlobes were still slightly red, but his eyes had regained their usual clarity.
“Sorry.”
The man kept a distance from Kiera. “I was out of line just now.”
“It’s okay, I didn’t take it to heart,” Kiera subconsciously said these words, then felt they carried another meaning, but it seemed inappropriate to say anything else at the moment.
The awkward atmosphere spread again in the room.
The heat that the pill had suppressed was showing signs of returning.
Kiera coughed to change the topic. “You just mentioned, you found out about Mrs. Olsen’s background?”
“Yes, I found out part of it,” Lewis Horton answered seriously. “Clance is a sensitive topic for me, and it was somewhat inconvenient for my people to dig for information. I only found out that Mrs. Olsen comes from the South Family of Clance. This family seems to be shrouded in mystery. I will continue to have people look into it.”
“Okay.”
Kiera answered.
In the end, after Old Mrs. Horton returned to her room, Kiera quietly slipped back to her own room.
She lay on the bed and closed her eyes.
After ten minutes, Kiera suddenly opened her eyes and touched her lips…
Images of the kiss filled her mind; she couldn’t fall asleep at all!
In the bedroom separated by a single wall, Lewis Horton was also tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. His mind was filled with the girl’s delicate face, her peach blossom eyes brimming with tenderness, below them a perky, delicate nose, and further down those cherry-red lips, as if waiting for someone to harvest them…
Another wave of heat rushed over him.
Lewis Horton violently threw off the covers, breathing heavily.
Wasn’t it said that the medicine would wear off by itself in an hour or two? Why was he still feeling so hot and bothered!
…
The next morning, after Lewis Horton got up and worked out in his room, he headed out for breakfast and felt slightly relieved not seeing Keira Olsen.
During breakfast, Old Mrs. Horton asked, “Where’s the granddaughter-in-law?”
Lewis hesitated, then replied, “She was tired last night, so I let her sleep.”
Old Mrs. Horton’s eyes lit up instantly.
When Keira Olsen woke up, she sensed that Old Mrs. Horton’s attitude was amiss.
“Granddaughter-in-law, does your back hurt? Come, sit on the sofa.”
“Granddaughter-in-law, do your legs hurt? Do you need someone to come and help you relax?”
“Granddaughter-in-law, feeling sleepy? If you’re sleepy, continue to sleep…”
Keira bowed the corners of her mouth and interrupted, “Where’s Mr. Horton?”
“He’s gone to work,” Old Mrs. Horton complained, “I said he shouldn’t go. You’d definitely be upset since it’s your first time and he just left you.”
Keira: ?
What is all this about!
She found it funny and was just about to say something to Old Mrs. Horton when there was a noise at the door.
The housekeeper Fiona entered: “Old Mrs. Horton, the front yard said that today, Young Master Jake and Isla Olsen got their marriage certificate. Isla is carrying the Horton family’s child and can’t live outside, so starting from today, she will move in!”
Hearing this, Old Mrs. Horton responded coolly, “I know.”
Fiona smiled and continued, “There’s one more thing. Mrs. Horton says she wants to rest for a while, so during this time, she wants Isla Olsen to take care of the household affairs, and she also asked me to tell you that, if there is anything from your end or Miss Olsen’s end, you can both go to Isla Olsen.”
Upon hearing this, Keira raised an eyebrow.
Melissa Knight so easily gave up the power of the household?
This Isla Olsen is quite capable!
Old Mrs. Horton, however, frowned, “The things on my end are arranged by you, nothing to do with her.”
Fiona smiled and said nothing.
Keira then stood up, “Grandma, I’ll go have a look.”
Old Mrs. Horton knew she wanted to inquire about Mrs. Olsen’s health, so she did not stop her.
As Keira went out, intending to walk towards the front yard, she saw a figure standing not far away. Upon seeing Keira, the person immediately walked toward her—it was Jake Horton!
Now, seeing him just made Keira feel somewhat bewildered.
The enthusiastic classmate from their college days had completely changed…
As she pondered, Jake approached her, his face showing anger, “Keira Olsen, I can’t believe you actually went after my uncle!”
Keira frowned, too lazy to entangle with him, and as she tried to walk away, Jake Horton’s voice of loss reached her, “You think by degrading yourself like this, you can take revenge on me?”
Keira paused in her steps.
She looked at Jake Horton as if he were insane, “Jake Horton, you’re overthinking it. I never planned to entangle with Mr. Horton to get back at you…”
“Won’t you admit it?!”
Jake’s eyes were red, and he clenched his fist. Suddenly he took out his phone, turned on a picture, and passed it to her, “This was taken last night, how do you explain this?!”
Keira looked and saw a photo from last night in Lewis Horton’s room on his phone.
Someone had taken the picture from the window, through a layer of white gauze curtain, and one could only vaguely see a man pressing a woman down on the sofa.
It indeed was her and Lewis Horton!
Keira’s pupils shrank as she furrowed her brows, “Who gave you the photo?”
“That’s not important!”
Jake glared at her, “What’s important is that you’re married and here seducing my uncle, being someone’s mistress, someone’s lover. Does your husband know?”
Looking at his angry face, Keira suddenly scoffed, “Do you even know who my husband is?”
