My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire novel Chapter 141

141 Clear Up 

As soon as these words were said, the room fell silent. 

Isla and Jake both looked over at Lewis. The whole 

point of calling him over was to see Keira’s husband and put them on the spot. 

But now, was Lewis actually going to stand up for 

Keira? 

Isla was momentarily at a loss for words. 

Erin, on the other hand, had nothing to lose and 

blurted out, “Mr. Horton knows her husband? With the 

way he’s dressed, could he be anything other than a construction worker? Even if he’s not a laborer, at best, he could be a contractor, right?” 

These days, even contractors could make a lot of 

money. 

But in Erin’s mouth, it seemed like even this job was somewhat contemptible. 

Lewis’s gaze darkened, and just as he was about to speak, someone knocked on the door, and a man in a suit walked in. “Sorry to intrude.”

Seeing him, someone in the crowd immediately 

exclaimed, “Mr. Hill?” 

The man in the suit, Mr. Hill, was slightly taken aback. 

“You know me?” 

“Well, yes. Our company has recently been working with yours, trying to provide you with a constant temperature energy system. You might not remember me, I’m just an intern at my company,” the young man 

said with an awkward smile. 

Someone whispered from the side, “Who’s that?” 

The young man said, “He’s an expatriate who has returned to Crera to pursue the real estate business. I heard their family’s enterprise has spread across the globe, and now he’s expanding into the Crera market. He’s quite impressive!” 

“Really? What’s someone like that doing here? Co he be looking for Mr. Horton?” 

In the room, only the Horton family had the status to discuss matters with such a family. 

However, Lewis frowned. 

The real estate market in Crera was currently in

decline, and Horton Group’s real estate business had already completely transformed. He couldn’t remember having any cooperation with the Martin 

family. 

As he was pondering, Mr. Hill bowed respectfully to 

Scott Martin and took out a contract from the document bag he was carrying. “Boss, I’ve thoroughly investigated the construction site you just inspected, 

and it meets all our investment standards. Here’s the 

contract; it was quite urgent, so I brought it over. Please sign it.” 

After that, he also nodded apologetically to the people 

around the table. 

The crowd was dumbfounded. 

Lewis frowned and looked toward Scott Martin, hi gaze turning abruptly cold. 

Under the table, Keira had just been holding his hand to prevent him from speaking, and even when she brought up her own background, she hadn’t let go, seemingly seeking strength from the gesture. 

Now, with everyone’s attention shifting, Keira wasn’t being scrutinized as closely anymore, so she relaxed

and attempted to withdraw her hand. 

But the next moment, the large hand she had been holding took control and grasped hers! 

Keira tugged hard but couldn’t pull her hand back. 

She looked at Lewis in surprise and saw a possessive look and a hint of jealousy on his face. Was that…jealousy? 

Following his gaze, Keira saw Scott. 

Keira couldn’t help but feel a mixture of amusement and dismay. 

The appearance of Scott seemed to have triggered a sense of crisis in Lewis… 

She thought for a moment and decided not to move. 

Right now, everyone’s attention was focused cot, who could feel the burning stares of the crow among those gazes was one filled with incomprehensible hostility. 

After signing the paper, Scott looked up and saw L staring at him. 

Scott gave him a warm smile, then turned to Keira.

“Miss Keira, I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Scott Martin.” 

He extended his hand toward Keira. 

Keira didn’t know what to say. 

She could only shake hands with Scott Martin using her other hand, the one Lewis hadn’t grasped, and then she quickly let go. Despite that, Lewis’s expression still turned gloomy. 

Scott seemed as if he hadn’t noticed the tension and 

once again looked at Erin. “I’m not a construction worker, just so you know. The reason I’m dressed like this is that I was busy with an inspection just now, which seems to have led to all these 

misunderstandings. I apologize for that.” 

Erin was shocked. 

Her mouth hung open wide enough to fit an entire 

egg. 

She awkwardly looked at Scott, and then back to Keira finding herself at a loss for words. 

Charles’s eyes immediately lit up. “I knew it! How could someone like Dr. South marry a bricklayer?

Turns out he’s quite the big shot!” 

“One is Dr. South, the other is a real estate tycoon. They’re a perfect match, aren’t they?” 

“I just googled the Martin family. My God, they’re kind of impressive!”

Isla and Jake frowned, looking toward Keira in 

confusion. 

How could it possibly be… 

How could she possibly have married such an influential figure?! 

Jake felt it was impossible to take Keira away from 

such a man to become his lover… 

He subconsciously glanced over at Lewis. 

He noticed that his esteemed uncle also had a 

darkened expression; inexplicably, he felt a twinge of 

satisfaction.
