How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 196 -
Chapter 196: Chapter 196
Chapter 196 -196
In the parking lot.
Inside that luxurious car, Lewis Horton and Uncle Olsen were still in a standoff.
Seeing the police cars, Uncle Olsen’s eyes flickered, “Someone called the police?”
Lewis knew Holly Sims and, seeing her hurried approach, knew she must have come to help Kiera Olsen. He didn’t expose the relationship, but simply said, “Isn’t it better that the police are here? If Kiera indeed pushed Isla, it’s perfect to handle this legally!”
However, Uncle Olsen stared at him, “Brat, stop playing tricks in front of me. I’ve said it, even if the illegitimate daughter didn’t push, since Miss Olsen has slandered her, I will make her pay the price!”
After saying that, he alighted from the car.
Lewis immediately followed him, “Uncle Olsen, would you like to go upstairs and see for yourself?”
Uncle Olsen looked down, pondered for a moment, and then turned to Ellis Olsen, “You keep an eye on things. If Isla is at a disadvantage, come and call for people.”
Ellis nodded and then ran upstairs.
After he left, Uncle Olsen finally turned to Lewis Horton, “If Miss South and her daughter suffer any wrong, I won’t mind leveling this place to the ground!”
Lewis met his gaze, “Uncle Olsen, I will return the sentiment! If my wife suffers any wrong, I won’t mind crossing swords with you!”
…
Upstairs.
Kiera Olsen looked at the gathered reporters, a cold smile curling at the corners of her lips.
If the first branch of the family wanted to bring down Lewis Horton, she certainly wouldn’t let Isla go…
Kiera glanced around at the people present and, after the reporters quieted down, spoke in a clear, cold voice, “First, I didn’t hurt anyone on purpose, and second, the child in Isla’s womb does not belong to the Horton family!”
Her voice was very clear, allowing the reporters to hear her clearly!
The reporters were all in an uproar, “What’s going on? Why would she say that?”
Kiera spoke directly, “Isla had an affair with someone else, the child in her womb doesn’t belong to the Horton family. Fearing that the Horton family would find out after the birth, she slandered me, claiming I pushed her, and took the opportunity to abort the child…”
Melissa Knight tearfully interrupted her, “Stop making excuses for your own mistakes, still spouting nonsense here and slandering my daughter-in-law, it’s ridiculous! Clearly, you and Lewis were the ones who did something wrong, yet you are throwing mud at us…”
The reporters were glancing back and forth between Melissa Knight and Kiera Olsen, unsure of whom to believe.
One of them eventually spoke up, “Mrs. Horton, do you have any proof for these statements?”
Kiera nodded, “Of course.”
Just then, Tom Davis arrived with a DNA test report. This time he didn’t hand it to Kiera, but directly handed it over to Melissa Knight, “Here is the DNA comparison result of the aborted child and Young Master Jake. Please take a look.”
Melissa scoffed coldly at Kiera, then turned to look at the report.
At that moment, Isla Olsen and Poppy Hill also chased after them.
Upon seeing that report, Poppy Hill was immediately thrown into disarray. She turned to Isla, “Isla, what do we do now? I, I will go and snatch the report back!”
Isla, however, looked down and tensely clenched her fingers.
She spoke directly, “No need.”
She then took a few steps towards Melissa Knight.
Melissa Knight glanced at the report and immediately fixated on the phrase “does not match.”
Shock flashed across her face before she glared fiercely at Isla Olsen, “You…”
Before she could finish, Isla Olsen grabbed her hand and squeezed, cutting her off, “Mom, it was my fault for causing trouble for everyone. Kiera is a illegitimate daughter from my family, she has always held resentment towards me, she pushed away my child… It’s my fault, I didn’t protect the child of Jake and me well enough…”
Anger flashed across Melissa Knight’s face.
That child was clearly not Jake Horton’s!!
Jake Horton had also approached the two, “Mom, show everyone this report, our Horton Group’s test results have their own anti-forgery marks, let me see if this report is fake!”
A flash of embarrassment crossed Melissa Knight’s face.
She obviously knew about the anti-forgery mark, the report was real!
She bit her lip, her thoughts rapidly changing, and finally clenched the report in her hand, turning to Isla Olsen and speaking directly, “I didn’t expect this report to be fake after all, Isla, you are really pitiful. When you were at your home, you were targeted by this illegitimate daughter, but now that you are at the Horton Family, with me and Jake on your side, we will absolutely not let you be wronged again! Today, Kiera Olsen and Lewis Horton must give you an explanation!!”
When Kiera Olsen heard this, she furrowed her brows.
She hadn’t expected Melissa Knight to cover for Isla Olsen!
The fact that Isla’s child was not Jake Horton’s should have infuriated the first branch of the family, shouldn’t it?

But she quickly realized something…
She was wrong; it turns out these journalists weren’t summoned by Melissa Knight, they were called by Isla Olsen!!
In front of so many journalists, if Melissa Knight exposed Isla Olsen’s true colors, it would only show their first branch as incompetent, a daughter-in-law causing such a scandal.
Moreover, her recent weeping to the journalists was just to tarnish Lewis Horton with a reputation for being overbearing and tyrannical!
So, even now, upon discovering Isla Olsen had deceived her, she would not, and even more could not, expose her lies!
Kiera Olsen’s gaze fell back on Isla Olsen.
She always knew that sister had a sinister mindset, but she hadn’t expected her to have a backup plan even now.
Since Melissa Knight now couldn’t expose her, finding another excuse for Jake Horton to divorce her would now be difficult… at least for the short term, the two could not divorce without raising suspicions from the outside world.
Isla Olsen’s move was indeed formidable!
Isla Olsen let out a sigh of relief, knowing she had gambled correctly!
She clenched her fists tightly, bowed her head, and suddenly her eyes reddened, “Kiera, I really didn’t know, why do you hate me so much! It was clearly you and your mom who ruined my family, why do you have to press me step by step? I said I wouldn’t mind the child being gone, why must you create a fake verification report?”
A vicious glint flickered in her eyes.
As long as the first branch and she insisted that the report was fake, then Kiera Olsen’s report would be useless!
The child was already gone, and now, she could completely insist that the embryo they left behind was not hers, it was Kiera Olsen framing her!
Jake Horton also angrily said, “Kiera Olsen, your uncle’s methods are too despicable!! The child is gone now, it’s not up to you guys to say whatever you want?”
Isla Olsen feigned tears, “Kiera, the issue with the report is clear now, do you have any other evidence that the child isn’t mine?”
Kiera Olsen clenched her jaw, not expecting to encounter such a situation, where these people would not admit the truth even in the face of concrete evidence.
She scoffed, about to speak, when Holly Sims’s voice suddenly came through, “Who says there’s no evidence?!”
