Lewisâs gaze was so intense that it stunned the few people who got out of the car.
Keira stood there holding Amy, silent.
Howard, however, was startled.
He noticed Lewisâs stance, especially with a group of bodyguards as if they were about to encircle
them, not allowing anyone to escapeâ¦
Was he here to settle accounts?
Or after getting a taste last night, was he looking for
Keera?
He swallowed and instinctively looked toward his
mother.
His mother also took a step back, suddenly pushing Keira forward, using the latter as a shield.
Then she said, âMr. Horton, we were deceived by her last night, too. It was all her idea. It has nothing to
do
with usâ¦â
Hearing these words, Lewis frowned slightly.

Howard immediately nodded. âYes, yes, it was all her own ideaâ¦â
Before he could finish, Lewis took large strides toward them.
Howardâs legs went weak with fear.
He wanted to flee, but the black-suited bodyguards had already surrounded his car, cutting off his
escape
route.
There was no retreat!
Just as Howard turned pale, Lewis reached Keira. His gaze fixed on her as though he couldnât bear to
look away for even a second.
Keira pursed her lips.
She didnât know if Lewis would recognize her as s had washed off the iodine from her face and
deliberately covered the mole at the corner of her
with concealer.
Howard and his mother hadnât noticed anything out the ordinary these past two daysâ¦
Keira feigned nervousness, clutching Amyâs hand a
little tighter Amy immediately cried out âMommy Iâm

scared!â
Keira then gently patted her. âDonât be scared, Amy. Donât be scared. Mommy is hereâ¦â
Her eyes looked aggrieved and anxious, with a hint of shyness, just like a normal, delicate girl facing a
one-night stand.
On her way back, she had already thought about how she should deal with him.
Lewis would surely investigate her once he woke up.
But Keeraâs existence was without question. The more he investigated, the more he would find out that
she was Keera.
Indeed, Lewis looked at her with hesitation in his fingers clenched tightly. His voice was dee said, âYou
are⦠Keera?â
The pronunciation of âKeiraâ and âKeeraâ was di
Keira confirmed that he said âKeera,â so she nodde biting her lip nervously, barely daring to look at him
âMr. Horton, may I ask if there is something wrong?
After this, there was a moment of silence.
