Chapter 349: Chapter 349

Keira was slightly startled.

Then the car door opened, and Frankie was sitting in the back seat, staring at her. “Miss South…do you need a ride?“.

Frankie was Mary’s cousin, and since Rebecca was here today to be a bridesmaid, he would certainly be present.

Now everyone was heading to the hotel where the wedding would be held.

As a member of the bride’s family, he was also going to partake in the wedding feast.

That’s why the Davis family’s car was following behind; at this moment, Frankie was scrutinizing Keira, his eyes full of probing

Keira looked around.

The procession of cars was long, and by the time they reached the hotel, if Mary didn’t see her, she might start fretting. Keira decided not to stand on ceremony and got straight into the car. “Thank you.”

The procession started moving, and Keira took out her phone and indeed saw a message from “Have you gotten in the car?”

Mary

It seemed that when she didn’t reply, Mary sent another five messages and even made a voice call.

Keim replied immediately. “I’m in the car, don’t worry”

After putting away her phone, she noticed Frankie’s gaze, so she turned her head and asked, “Mr. Allen, is there something you want to ask?”

Behind his gold–rimmed glasses, Frankie’s gaze was fixed on her as if trying to spot some flaw in her, vet he couldn’t seem to find any.

He asked directly, “The information about Miss South shows that you are quite mild–mannered.”

Keira smiled. “Yes, I used to be quite gentle, thinking it was good for a woman to support her husband and educate her children, but didn’t my ex–husband teach me how to be a different

She said this with a self–deprecating smile.

person?”

Preconceived notions were truly harmful. Who could have imagined that a woman as delicate and fragile as her sister could also have her own strength deep down?

How could someone capable of giving up the only hope of survival to her sister amidst life and death in the sea be truly weak and incompetent?

Thinking about this, Keira’s eyes showed a trace of sorrow.

Her appearance, however, made Frankie even more puzzled as he sized up Keira.

Had she really undergone a vast change in her marriage, and now she had become so composed?

That could indeed be possible…

Frankie thought he might be overthinking things.

After all, Kelta’s body had been found in Oceanion, and besides, the person in front of him didn’t have a mole at the corner of her eye.

He was silent for a long while before speaking ajpain. “Lewis is with you because you look exactly like his deceased wife. Are you aware of this, Miss South?

Keha paused, then suddenly lowered her gaze. “When my ex–husband heard about Mrs. Horton’s funeral, he took me there and discovered that I looked just like Mrs. Horton… and then my ex– husband…”

She seemed almost too embarrassed to say it. “My ex–husband gave me away to Mr. Horton… I didn’t understand what was happening at that time. It was only later that I understood:

Frankie was taken aback. “Just like that?”

Keira looked at him and seemed puzzled. “What do you mean?”

Frankie said, “It seems to me that Lewis treats you in a special way. novelbin

Keira continued with a self–deprecating laugh. “I’m just a substitute. He probably can’t get over his wife’s death, so he tries to find a sense of presence in me.”

Frankie suddenly realized something.

At Keira’s funeral, Lewis had refused to acknowledge that the body was Keira’s, despite all the DNA

evidence….

At that time, everyone said Mr. Horton had gone mad.

Frankie had visited him, and in just a few days, Lewis had tormented himself to an extreme state.

Thinking of it now, he must have stubbornly seen Keera as Keira.

Only in this way, he could feel a bit better, right?

That was nothing but self–deception.

Once Frankie had worked out this logic, he understood what was going on and fell silent.

However, Keira wouldn’t pass up this opportunity. She turned to Frankie and suddenly smiled. “Mr. Allen, about the cooperation between our two families, are you really not going to consider it again?

Frankie frowned. “It’s just a bit of raw material. I don’t want to upset my little sister.

No sooner had he spoken than a cell phone appeared in front of him.

Keira had already opened a cooperation document and handed it to him. “What if we are willing to collaborate with you and jointly develop a new project?”

Frankie was stunned.

He looked at Keira’s phone and, upon seeing the content of the project, his eyes immediately lit up.

Keira said, “As I understand it, although the Allen family is one of the five major families, it has fallen behind the other four. If you don’t catch up, the Allen family might really decline. Aren’t you worried, Mr. Allen?”

Frankie clenched his jaw.

It was precisely because the Allen family had fallen behind that they chose to cooperate with the Horton family in Oceanion that year, aiming to rise to a higher level.

After the cooperation, their status indeed improved, but it still wasn’t enough.

The project Keira was now offering was far too tempting.

The core technology of their company certainly needed to be updated, but there weren’t enoug technical staff. The latest technologies from Dr. South were all in Samuel’s company, which now belonged to Keera…

Seeing that he was silent, Keira took back the phone, “Mr. Allen, please consider it carefully

Frankie then fell into silence.

While his sister was important, how could such a prominent family give up such a significant benefit for one relationship?

If it had been just a minor matter before, he definitely would have complied with his sister’s wishes, but now…

Frankie’s fingers traced the backrest of the seat behind him as he pondered with downcast eyes.

It took only half an hour to drive from the Davis family to the hotel.

Once the motorcade stopped, Keira looked at Frankie. “Mr. Allen, if you change your mind, you can come and find me anytime.”

Leaving these words behind, she opened the door and stepped out.

She then quickly walked toward the bride’s car and, sure enough, Mary had gotten out and was waiting for her. Only when she saw Keira did she breathe a sigh of relief. Finndd the new𝒆st 𝒏ovels on n/𝒐/velbin(.)com

After that, everyone went into the hotel’s rest area to wait for the wedding ceremony.

Among the bridesmaids, Rebecca saw Keira and was momentarily taken aback. Right away, she furrowed her brows and asked displeased, “Whose car did you come in?”

Victoria also chimed in. “Yeah, what’s going on?”

Someone whispered nearby, “I think I just saw her getting out of Mr. Allen’s car.”

Rebecca was still a bit confused, “Which Mr. Allen?”

The person immediately pointed toward Frankie who had just gotten out of the car, “Your brother,

duh!”

Rebecca was dumbfounded.

Her face turned dark in an instant, and she left them with, “You guys go ahead, I’ll come later.”

Then she stormed off toward Frankie. With eyes red with anger, she glared at him. “Frankie, how could you bring Keera here?! Don’t you know that I really hate her?!”

Frankie felt somewhat helpless upon hearing this…

Seeing his sister’s state, he knew he had to give an explanation.

After a long silence, he finally said, “I suspect that Keera is Keira.”
