Chapter 180 -180
Ellis Olsen looked at the photo in his hand.
Just as he was about to get a clear look, the image before him flickered away as Lewis Horton snatched the photo from his hand and chased after Kiera Olsen out the door.
Ellis Olsen: ?
Watching the man’s retreating back, he felt puzzled, then couldn’t help but curl his lips, “What’s this? Begging for my help and still so arrogant! Hmph, this young master won’t bother with meddling!”
After speaking, he couldn’t help but sigh silently.
Back when he was studying abroad, he had already noticed Lewis Horton’s extraordinary abilities.
Lewis Horton had a superior intellect, seemingly understanding everything at first glance. After Ellis told his uncle about this, his uncle instructed him to associate more with smart people like Lewis Horton to learn from them.
As if Lewis was better than him.
Ellis just wouldn’t accept it. Later, when he finished his studies abroad, his uncle even told him that if he couldn’t become close friends or “bros” with Lewis Horton, then he should consider an arranged marriage.
Unfortunately, even though his uncle was the one in power at home, whether it was his eldest uncle’s family or theirs, they all lacked a legitimate daughter to enter into such a marriage.
Therefore, Ellis and his uncle combed through their distant relatives to find two girls who were both decent in appearance and abilities. They were legally adopted under the name of the eldest uncle, hoping to give Lewis Horton a choice to pick someone he fancied.
Who would have thought that when Ellis Olsen made this suggestion, Lewis Horton outright refused it!!
This bastard, did he not take the Clance Olsen Family seriously at all?
Eating his noodles dissatisfied, Ellis’s cell phone vibrated once.
He picked it up and glanced at it, only to see a message from his uncle on WhatsApp: “How is Mrs. Olsen doing after your visit tonight?”
Ellis Olsen: “…”
He didn’t dare say that Mrs. Olsen had fainted from anger in front of him; otherwise, wouldn’t his uncle scold him for being useless?!
Thinking about the direction Lewis Horton and Kiera Olsen had left, Ellis couldn’t help but put down his chopsticks and stood up to walk towards the hospital.
…
Kiera Olsen’s expression returned to its usual coldness, and her thoughts gradually calmed down.
When she briskly entered the hospital, the four black-clad bodyguards who were the personal security detail of Lewis Horton had already positioned themselves at the entrance.
All four stood with their hands behind their backs, each of them looking strong and sturdy, not something ordinary security could compare with.
Upon seeing her, all four straightened instantly and respectfully greeted her, “Good evening, Madam.”
“…”
Kiera Olsen twitched the corners of her mouth and let out a light cough, as Lewis Horton’s deep voice came from behind her, “All four of them are former special forces, ensuring that Mrs. Olsen gets to see whoever she wishes on demand.”
Kiera Olsen nodded and walked ahead first.
Lewis Horton followed a half-step behind, beside her.
Seeing this, the four bodyguards showed a surprised expression, glancing at one another.
They had followed the boss for so many years, and Lewis Horton was always the supremely aloof man walking at the forefront. When had he ever given way?
That half step made it immediately clear to the four people the status Keira Olsen held in Lewis Horton’s heart.
They watched Keira Olsen’s retreating figure, their gazes becoming even more respectful, as they closely followed behind Lewis Horton.

Six people trooped into the hospital room.
Lewis Horton had arranged for Mrs. Olsen to stay in a VIP hospital room, which was divided into a living area and a bedroom.
At the time, Isla Olsen and Jake Horton were sitting in the living room, having ordered takeout and were now eating dinner.
When Keira Olsen entered, Jake Horton was looking worriedly toward the bedroom, “Can it be okay for my father-in-law not to eat anything?”
Upon hearing this, Isla Olsen sighed, “Dad is too worried about Mom. I guess he won’t eat until Mom wakes up…”
On hearing this, Jake Horton thought of his parents’ relationship back home and how his mother would painfully wait at home every day, just hoping Dad would stay in and not visit that woman outside.
And every night Dad stayed was a feast for Mom.
He lowered his gaze, unable to help himself as he said, “Father-in-law truly loves mother-in-law so much…”
“Yes,” Isla’s eyes reddened, “Dad is also the most affectionate man I’ve seen.”
On hearing this, Jake suddenly felt a twinge of guilt. He suddenly took her hand, “Isla, don’t worry, I will learn from father-in-law in the future.”
Maybe it was Taylor Olsen’s condition that moved him or perhaps he finally realized the inappropriateness of his perpetual longing for Keira Olsen; he gave a wry smile, “I was wrong before. I’ve liked Keira for four years and I couldn’t let go all at once…”
Isla then said, “It’s okay, Jake, I don’t mind. Even a man like Dad makes mistakes, right? I used to think my parents were the most loving couple in the world, but whenever I saw Keira and her mom, I knew there was always an insurmountable chasm between my parents, an irreparable crack…”
At this, Jake Horton wrapped an arm around her shoulders, a hint of hatred in his eyes, “The existence of illegitimate daughters like her is the most unjust and the most despicable!”
Isla Olsen nodded.
The two were just discussing this when the door was pushed open and Keira Olsen walked in.
Isla Olsen’s brows furrowed at the sight of her.
Jake Horton also abruptly stood up, seeing her and Lewis Horton enter, and noticing Isla Olsen’s full resistance, the burgeoning guilt plagued him, prompting him to step in front of Isla, chiding angrily, “Keira Olsen, what are you doing here? Haven’t you caused enough chaos in the Olsen family?!”
With her eyes reddened, Isla also cried out, “Uncle, I’m begging you! I know you want to protect Aunt Keira, but my mom really can’t be agitated… You heard what the doctor just said, she’s suffered from extreme anger! She’s about to wake up, can’t you stop disturbing her?!”
Keira Olsen looked at her indifferently, “I didn’t intend to disturb Mrs. Olsen. Before Mrs. Olsen fainted, she clearly had something to tell me. If Mrs. Olsen wakes up and sees me and says even a word for me to leave, I will promptly do so.”
But Isla Olsen scoffed coldly, “We don’t need to wait for my mom to wake up. She is my mom! I make the decisions here, and I want you to leave now!”
Jake Horton immediately positioned himself in front of Isla, “That’s right, Uncle, Keira Olsen, no matter what you do today, you’re not getting through this door!”
Isla immediately looked at him gratefully, lowering her head and saying with a hurt tone, “Jake, thank you.”
“We are husband and wife, no need for such formality.”
At that moment, Jake Horton felt a surge of strength fill his chest, feeling like a real man.
But Keira Olsen wasn’t going to indulge them. Seeing this, she gestured with a wave of her hand.
The four burly men in black at the door immediately came in, grabbing hold of Jake Horton and yanking him aside as if he were a mere chick!
Keira Olsen didn’t even glance at him as she took control of the hospital room and strode over to Mrs. Olsen’s bedside!
