Chapter 214 -214

The sunlight in the yard was just perfect.

It was now noon, and Kiera watched Old Mrs. Horton’s yard from a distance, wondering what kind of medicine Lewis Horton was peddling.

When Lewis heard her question, he chuckled, “Of course, I’m at ease.”

Kiera was startled.

Lewis then lowered his gaze, “Selena Horton cares so much about Grandmother’s illness because of those shares she holds, so she’ll definitely want Grandmother to stay alive and well!”

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

Realization dawned on Kiera when she heard this.

Just now, Oliver Horton had said that Old Mrs. Horton had made a will, stating that if she died, her shares would go to Lewis Horton, so before Old Mrs. Horton could change her will, the first branch of the Horton family definitely wanted the old lady to live well!

No wonder Lewis Horton was so confident about them.

Kiera sighed softly, having originally thought that Nathan Horton, Oliver, and Selena truly cared for Great Grandmother. But in the end, everything still came down to self-interest.

Lewis continued, “This Researcher Hill, I had Tom Davis investigate him a while ago; he indeed is a staff member of the Clance Research Institute, and the connections he has were indeed found by the Cobb family in Clance to help Selena. The medicine he brought has also been verified and is genuine. If they really can save Grandmother, what harm is there in being mocked? It’s no big deal.”

Kiera frowned, “But this is too passive!”

She disliked the feeling of her fate being in someone else’s hands…

Tom Davis sighed beside her, “There’s no helping it, we’ve tried every means possible to contact Nora Researcher, but she is too mysterious, and to this day, we haven’t found her whereabouts. And Corey Mills from the Clance Research Institute has made it clear that he will not show favoritism, and will strictly select candidates for trials based on the patient’s condition. The boss has tried all kinds of ways to pressure him, but he wouldn’t budge…”

At this point, Tom glanced at Lewis Horton and coughed.

The boss, for the sake of the old lady, almost went to abduct someone to acquire the medicine, adopting extreme measures, but before he could do anything, Selena’s side had made a breakthrough.

But these words should not be told to Miss Olsen, lest she finds out about the boss’s involvement in the gray area and becomes frightened.

However, Kiera, curiously asked, “How did this Researcher Hill get the medicine?”

Tom stroked his chin, “I guess, he must have stolen it.”

Kiera: ?

She was shocked!

Tom continued, “Actually, we’ve already found out that Researcher Hill took the medicine behind Corey Mills’s back, claiming it was Nora Researcher who personally selected the candidates for the trials. But in the end, he could just secretly operate and buy one of the patient’s medicine at a high price, after all, the Cobb Family in Clance isn’t short on money! That Nora Researcher, I heard she’s a tech geek, not really savvy with managing a company, and I guess she won’t even know about this in the end…”

Kiera: !!

Alright, now she knew!

Was it really that the institute was being too lenient in its management?

She pulled at the corner of her mouth and then turned to look at Lewis Horton, “Aren’t you worried that once Grandmother wakes up, they won’t let you in and might coax her into changing her will?”

“I don’t even care about those shares,” he replied.

Lewis glanced at her, “Moreover, do you really think Grandmother is that easy to deceive?”

Kiera: ?

The old lady who, upon seeing her, immediately clung to her arm and wouldn’t let go, who followed her home in a daze, not easy to deceive?

Just as she was about to smirk, she suddenly realized…

Great Grandmother had run away from home twice to find her, evidently confused, yet each time she indeed found the place without being misled by anyone else!

Lewis calmly stated, “The Horton Group was founded by Grandmother; do you really think Grandmother is foolish?”

Keira Olsen: “…”

As she was inwardly grumbling, she saw Lewis Horton turn on his phone, open a surveillance app, and directly stream the clear, complete situation in Old Mrs. Horton’s bedroom onto his phone screen.

Lewis Horton spoke slowly, “After Oliver said that the illegitimate daughter would come with the researchers, I installed this hidden camera in Grandma’s room.”

Keira Olsen: “…”

This guy is too sneaky, isn’t he?

But before she could speak, she saw movement on the camera.

Selena Horton had been at the door, watching Lewis Horton and Keira Olsen leave. Only after they were out did she turn back to close the door, giving Researcher Hill a smile, “Thanks, cousin.”

“Hey, you’re about to marry your cousin, so we are family. There’s no need for formalities.”

Researcher Hill and Selena Horton approached the great grandmother, calling softly, “Great Grandmother? Great Grandmother…”

Old Mrs. Horton slowly opened her eyes, still somewhat groggy and confused.

She looked at Selena with a puzzled expression, “Who are you?”

Her speech was very clear!

That means the special medication really worked!

“Great Grandmother, I’m Selena Horton. My father is Oliver from the first branch of the family, your grandson. Do you remember?”

Old Mrs. Horton immediately came to a realization, “Oh, you’re the illegitimate daughter!”

Selena Horton: “…”

Old Mrs. Horton then looked around, “Why are you here?”

Selena Horton explained, “Great Grandma, I went to great lengths in Clance to finally secure a clinical trial medication just to bring it back for your treatment! How are you feeling now?”

After carefully considering her feelings, Old Mrs. Horton smiled, “I feel very good! My mind is much clearer, and I remember a lot of things!”

Selena Horton then spoke up, “That means the medicine is indeed effective. Great Grandmother, to get this medicine, I had to beg my boyfriend for a long time. The cousin here even smuggled it out, and getting caught would have serious consequences, but for you, I think it’s worth it!”

Old Mrs. Horton was immediately moved, “Good child, you are so filial!”

Selena Horton seized the opportunity, “I am about to marry into the Cobb Family in Clance, but my dowry is a bit meager… Great Grandma, I heard that when the younger members of the family marry,you always give them shares… When it comes to me, will you do the same?”

Old Mrs. Horton paused slightly, “I give shares? Do I? I don’t remember that.”

Selena Horton: ?

Old Mrs. Horton’s face showed deep confusion, “Wait for me to ask the brat… oh, your little uncle, whether this is true or not. If it is, I can’t let a good child like you be wronged!”

Selena Horton: “…”

“Oh dear, why do I feel a bit sleepy? Filial child, don’t disturb Great Grandmother’s sleep, let me get a bit more rest…”

“…”

Watching the speechless look on Selena Horton’s face in the phone, Keira Olsen couldn’t help but laugh.

The great grandmother really knows how to play her part!

Just as she thought this, the butler rushed over, out of breath, “Mr. Horton, someone is knocking at the door, saying Uncle Olsen has come to visit!”

With this news, Lewis Horton glanced at Keira Olsen and then said promptly, “Please let him in.”
