Chapter 148 -148
Keira Olsen bypassed Isla Olsen and approached Madeleine Davis, just about to enter the room when Madeleine Davis suddenly spoke, “Who are you?”
Her voice was subdued, appearing weak, as if lacking any aggressive power.
Keira Olsen frowned slightly but didn’t speak.
Isla Olsen then spoke up, “Auntie, this is Keira Olsen. Remember the Great Grandmother fell ill? She mistook her for you, so Mr. Horton has been letting her stay at home… Now there are all sorts of rumors outside, claiming that Keira Olsen is the uncle’s lover…”
“Isla!” Mrs. Olsen warned loudly, cutting off Isla Olsen’s next words.
Isla Olsen pouted and said no more, but the implication behind her words was already quite clear.
Keira Olsen ignored her and just stared at Madeleine Davis, directly asking, “Miss Davis, is it? Are you really Mrs. Horton?”
She found Madeleine Davis somewhat unreadable.
Her question was both a probe and an opportunity for her to clarify.
Isla Olsen immediately scoffed, “Keira Olsen, you really outdo even your mom, daring to be so arrogant right in front of the main person? Your mom is so docile in front of my mom that she wouldn’t dare to make a sound, and if you’re someone’s mistress, at least learn your mom’s demeanor?”
Mrs. Olsen’s complexion changed drastically, her voice trembling, “Isla!”
She couldn’t understand why her daughter was being so harsh and repulsive!
Yet Isla Olsen was completely oblivious to her mistake, saying outright, “What? Am I wrong? What right does she have to question Auntie’s identity? Behaving so arrogantly… Mom, you only tell me to shut up, why don’t you tell her to shut up?”
Mrs. Olsen, distressed, clutched her chest and trembled.
Keira Olsen ignored them and kept her gaze fixed on Madeleine Davis, “You were saying?”
Madeleine Davis, seemingly terrified by their argument, stared with innocent, bewildered deer eyes at everything in front of her and then spoke feebly, “Me, don’t be angry… I’m not in good health, I won’t argue with you… as long as Lewis keeps taking care of me… I’m also very thankful to you, thank you for taking care of Grandmother during this time…”
She lowered her head, her fingers intermingling, “Lewis is busy taking care of me and doesn’t have time to accompany Grandmother, it’s nice having you help us accompany Grandmother, Lewis is happy about it too…”
Keira Olsen immediately clenched her fists, taking a step forward, “So, answer my question, are you Mrs. Horton?”
She was really getting impatient now.
Madeleine Davis looked frail and weak, but her words brought significant misunderstandings!
The underlying tone, without once confirming if she was Mrs. Horton, yet she spoke as though she held that identity.
She disliked such ambiguous issues.
Her brows slightly furrowed as she saw Madeleine Davis seemingly terrified by her demeanor, quickly hiding behind Isla Olsen with a frantic look, “I, I won’t compete with you… don’t be angry, please don’t be like this…”
Just as these words were uttered, Isla Olsen immediately stood in front of her, righteously accusing Keira Olsen, “What are you doing? I know you’re very formidable, used to resolving issues by force outside, but this is Auntie! She’s already frail, if you dare touch a hair on her, see if Mr. Horton will forgive you!
Keira Olsen frowned, “I didn’t lay a hand…”
Madeleine Davis quickly exclaimed, “She didn’t lay a hand, indeed she didn’t…”
Isla Olsen sneered, “That’s because you got away quickly. She hasn’t even had the chance to take action yet. Keira Olsen, I really didn’t expect this from you. You’re getting more and more audacious! In front of my mom and so many people, you actually dared to threaten Mrs. Horton! You kept pressing her; what do you want her to say? Do you want her to hand over your uncle to you? How shameless can you be, bullying a sick person like this?!”
Keira Olsen felt a surge of anger welling up.
She stepped forward, “I just wanted to clarify things. It’s always been you talking. Let her tell me herself if she really is Mrs. Horton!”
Isla Olsen scoffed and then turned to Madeleine Davis, “Little aunt, don’t be afraid! Show her your status and stance as the rightful wife. This is the Horton Family’s home, not a place where mistresses can run wild!”
Madeleine Davis immediately tensed up and gripped her dress, bowing her head, “Miss Olsen, I really thank you…”
Isla Olsen was somewhat exasperated, “Why are you thanking her? She took away your husband, took away Great Grandmother’s affection, how can you be so weak and incompetent… No wonder my uncle is openly messing around outside!”
Madeleine Davis stuttered nervously, “Don’t talk nonsense, there’s no proof, I just need Lewis to not abandon me.”

Isla Olsen, “If you keep going on like this, it won’t be long before he abandons you!”
“Slap!”
Mrs. Olsen could no longer hold back and directly slapped Isla Olsen, “I told you to shut up! Stop sowing discord here!”
Isla Olsen’s head snapped to the side, and she was stunned for a moment, then glared at Mrs. Olsen and shouted, “What right do you have to tell me to shut up? The one who did wrong this time is clearly Keira Olsen!”
“Mom, in your eyes, is everything I do wrong? I just wanted to protect my little aunt’s dignity! I wanted Keira Olsen to realize her mistake!”
Isla Olsen’s gaze sharply confronted Mrs. Olsen, “And you even want to stop me? Is Keira Olsen so perfect in your eyes? Even if she becomes a mistress, a homewrecker, you still favor her? Have you ever considered my situation? With the kind of things she’s doing in the Horton Family, how am I supposed to hold my ground in this family?!”
Isla Olsen’s righteous questioning made Mrs. Olsen tremble all over, “You, don’t make your motives sound so noble… You’re just targeting Keira!”
“Yes, I am targeting her, so what? If she hadn’t done anything wrong, could I target her? This time I completely held the moral high ground, what did I do wrong?!”
Isla Olsen pressed aggressively, “Shall we call everyone here to see?”
Mrs. Olsen clutched her chest and stepped back.
“Madam!”
Keira Olsen stepped forward and supported her arm.
But unexpectedly, she was pushed away by Mrs. Olsen the next moment.
Keira Olsen, shocked, looked at Mrs. Olsen to see her eyes reddening, seeming on the verge of collapse, “It’s my fault, my negligence that has turned you two into what you are today!”
She looked disappointingly at Keira Olsen, “I always thought you were a good child, but today, Keira, you’ve deeply disappointed me!”
Mrs. Olsen’s voice was choked with sobs, and her disappointed gaze…
All of this made Keira Olsen feel a tightness in her chest, as if her heart was being fiercely gripped by an invisible hand.
She clenched her fists tightly, turned abruptly into the lounge, picked up her bag, and strode out, then, feeling wronged, she took out her marriage certificate from inside and handed it to Mrs. Olsen.
