Keira suddenly appeared, startling Isla!

She immediately looked at Finley with panic written all over her eyes.

Finley flashed a faint smile, about to speak…

Isla beat him to it. “Keira, what are you doing eavesdropping on our conversation?!”

Keira’s gaze swept over her and Finley. “Don’t deflect the topic here.”

She looked at Finley. “What truth?”

Keira’s intuition told her that this truth had something to do with her.

She added. “I can give you money for it.”

Finley’s eyes lit up. “How much can you give?”

Keira looked at Isla and saw her clutching her clothes tightly, completely flustered.

She said indifferently, “Just name your price. I can get it from the Horton Family.”

Finley’s shifty little eyes flitted about, finally settling on Isla with a beaming smile, “I think you’re not as rich as Isla, right?”

Isla immediately heaved a sigh of relief and told Finley, “I’ll find a way to get you the money you want. You can leave now.”

Finley chuckled. “Alright then, see you around.”

As he passed by Keira, he paused. “Niece, my secret will always be valuable to you. As long as you can afford the price, I’ll definitely sell it to you!”

With those words, he cheerfully left.

Keira watched him leave, narrowing her eyes.

She took out her phone and sent a message to Samuel on WhatsApp, “Check out Finley.”

Samuel quickly replied, “OK.”

He then sent another message, “Boss, there’s an industry gathering tomorrow.

The invitation is in your email. Are you going?”

Keira’s reply was very brief, “No.”

After sending the message, when she looked up again, she saw Isla walking past her with her head lowered.

Keira calmly said, “If you don’t want people to find out, you shouldn’t do anything in the first place. You think I can’t find out about you and Finley?”

Isla froze, then looked up with a smile on her face. “Keira, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t understand…”

“No wonder despite being Miss Olsen, you’re so strapped for cash. You’re paying him every month. How big of a secret do you owe him?”

Isla quickly retorted, “What nonsense are you talking about? How could I owe him any secret!”

Her eyes flashed with a ruthless gleam. “Keira, I suggest you better figure out your own way out instead of wasting time on me!”

Keira’s face turned cold.

Seeing Isla about to leave, she asked, “Where is Poppy?”

Upon hearing this, Isla instantly flared up. “That’s your mother, how would I know?!”

Isla had been hiding the truth from Poppy after finding out from Finley, pretending that she didn’t know at all…

That woman was too foolish! She feared that acknowledging Poppy would lead to Poppy revealing any clues…

Therefore, Poppy had no idea that Isla already knew the truth about her roots.

Leaving those words behind, Isla left.

Keira followed her, eventually arriving at Mrs. Olsen’s ward.

Through the glass window on the door, it was evident that Poppy wasn’t inside the room.

Keira didn’t go in to disturb Mrs. Olsen. Instead, she left the building.

She called Poppy, “Where are you?”

A panic-stricken voice came from Poppy’s end. “Keira, what are you trying to do?”

“I want you to come back and apologize to Mr. Horton.”

The voice of Poppy suddenly grew shrill. “I won’t! Mr. Horton won’t let me off the hook! You apologize to him for me! You’re my daughter, and a daughter should pay for the mother’s debt!”

Keira scoffed. “In that case, don’t blame me for calling the police.”

Poppy roared, “Why would you call the police? I’m your mother! The person I tried to hit is you! A mother has every right to hit her child!!”

Keira remained indifferent. “But this time the person you injured is Mr. Horton. Everyone has to pay for their own mistakes.”

“You ungrateful thing! If I had known this is how you’d treat me, I should have drowned you when you were born! I should have thrown you into a manure pit or sold you to a brothel! You little slut!”

Keira didn’t bother to listen to her any longer. She simply hung up.

Regardless of their past conflicts, calling the police would only lead to a verdict of a family dispute.

But this time, it was different.

Poppy accidentally injured Lewis and was eventually sentenced to 48 hours in custody, in addition to a fine and medical fees.

But the Horton Family wouldn’t care about that amount of money.

Having dealt with these matters, Keira returned to Old Mrs. Horton’s hospital room.

Lewis wasn’t in the room.

The old lady explained, “He mentioned something about an important meeting and left for it. He’s downstairs in the car.”

Keira nodded, she was silent for a moment, and then she spoke, “Granny, I’m sorry.”

But the old lady waved her off. “We’re all family here, and there’s no need for such formalities. Besides, seeing that brat sticking up for you made me rather pleased!”

Keira was slightly taken aback.

Family…

In this bustling world that was filled with people coming and going, she had always known that she didn’t have a family.

But now, it seemed like she truly had a sense of home.

Isla sold a bag in the second-hand market and gathered ten thousand dollars to give Finley.

She also sent him a message, “Keep your mouth shut! Otherwise, it won’t end well for either of us!”

Finley’s response arrived quickly. “Niece, don’t worry. Even if I can’t tell who’s richer between you and Keira, I still know who to side with.”

Isla was still uneasy.

She needed to marry Jake as soon as possible. That way, even if her identity was exposed in the future, she would still be the daughter-in-law of the Horton family!

At nine in the evening, Jake suddenly came to look for her.

Isla was excited. “Jake, why are you here?”

Jake asked sternly, “Regarding Dr. South, are you sure you’ve settled things with him?”

Keira’s words from earlier left Jake feeling uneasy.

Isla hesitated, “Of course.”

“Then arrange a meeting between me and Dr. South.”

Isla anxiously wrung her hands. “Dr. South is currently abroad. I’ll arrange it when he comes back. Jake, do you have any problems you need help solving? I can contact him for you.”

Jake watched Isla suspiciously. “My questions are sent to your email. Send them to Dr. South. Have him help solve the problem.”

“Okay, I’ll forward them right away.”

To prove her point, Isla immediately sent the email, “Dr. South usually responds to my messages instantly. Jake, just wait a moment.”

In the VIP hospital ward, Keira’s phone vibrated once.

She took a glance and saw that it was an email from Mrs. Olsen,

“South, can you help me solve this problem?”

Keira guessed what was happening. She opened the attachment, which indeed contained a technical issue from the Horton Group!!

Isla was actually asking for her help under the guise of Mrs. Olsen!!

Keira let out a scoff and replied to the message.

Ding!

The email alert chimed, and Isla breathed a sigh of relief. “See, Dr. South responds quickly to me. I’ve received his email!”

Then, Isla opened the email….
