142 Husband and Wife
Lewis’s words once again quieted the private room.
Everyone looked at him in shock.
Even Professor Miller was confused. “He’s here?
Where?”
Lewis straightened his back and watched as Professor Miller bypassed him, starting with Scott Martin. He examined each of the men sitting in their seats, but after a full circle, he found no one.
Professor Miller asked, “Keira, who on earth is it?”
Lewis was speechless.
Seeing the change in the man’s expression, Keira couldn’t help but snicker internally.
From the first time she saw Lewis, he had always been serious. This was the first time Keira had seen so many
emotions on his face.
She smiled but said nothing.
Isla frowned. “Keira, did you marry one of our classmates? Who exactly is it? Stop keeping us in

suspense!”
At that, Lewis spoke up, “Her husband is me!”
Suddenly, there was silence in the room, and everyone’s gaze abruptly shifted to the two of them.
Isla wanted to say something, but after opening her mouth and then meeting Lewis’s cold face, she
swallowed her words.
Lewis raised Keira’s hand, which he had been holding tightly under the table, showed it to everyone, and then specifically gave Scott a wary look. “Mr. Martin, I’m glad my wife could help you. If there’s anything in the future, you can contact me.”
Scott was speechless.
Lewis then looked around at everyone and signaled to Tom, who immediately smiled and said, “Mr. Horton and Miss Olsen have arranged a few bottles of fine wine to celebrate Professor Miller’s birthday. They’ll be served shortly. Enjoy your meal and drink, and this
meal will be on Mr. Horton’s account.”
The classmates were very appreciative, immediately

raising their glasses. “Thank you, Mr. Horton. Thank you, Dr. South!”
At that moment, the atmosphere of the entire birthday banquet seemed to reach its climax.
Lewis had intended to dine with everyone, but his cell phone suddenly rang.
After he answered, whoever was on the other end said
something that made Lewis’s expression change drastically, and he said, “I’ll be right there.”
After hanging up, he looked at Keira apologetically. “I might need to leave now.”
“Go ahead,” Keira said nonchalantly.
Lewis paused, glanced at the people around him, and then said again, “I’ll leave the car for you, and have the driver take you home later.”
He then stood up, straightened his suit, and was about to leave when he passed by Scott Martin. He suddenly said, “Mr. Martin, everyone here is Keira’s college classmates and teachers. Your presence seems to keep them from relaxing completely. Why don’t we leave together?”

Scott pursed his lips but politely stood up. “Alright then.”
However, as he was leaving with Lewis, he still turned
to look back at Keira. “Miss Olsen, I’ll be in touch with you frequently in the future.”
These words darkened Lewis’s face a few shades more.
Once the two men finally left, the atmosphere in the
private room completely relaxed, and everyone acted as if they had seen off a superior. They slumped back in their chairs and let out a deep sigh of relief!
“Who would’ve thought that one day I’d get to dine with such important figures? I reckon today’s lunch is the peak of my life!”
“Now I’ll never be short of something to talk about think that people I could only see on financial chan are actually having dinner and drinks with me… My
God!”
“Alright, they’ve left, but we still have Dr. South!”
Professor Miller couldn’t help but smile. He turned to discuss an academic issue with Keira when Isla

suddenly saidm “Keira, aren’t you being… shameless?!”
As soon as she said this, everyone immediately looked
at her.
Charles frowned. “Isla, I see it now. This whole time, it was you who were picking fights. Erin was just a pawn you used. So, what is it that you want to do now that Erin has stopped talking?”
Isla didn’t expect to be called out and bit her lip in
anger.
She lowered her gaze to think for a moment, then simply laughed. “I don’t want to do anything. I just think Keira has gone too far! She actually managed to persuade Mr. Horton to put on such a grand act with
her!”
Her words stunned the people around her.
Keira frowned. “Are you ever going to stop?”
Isla sneered. “Can’t I talk about the things you’ve done yourself? Everyone in the Horton family knows Mr. Horton got married two years ago, whereas you got married after graduation. Tell me, how did the two of you manage to get married across those two years?”

Keira frowned.
There were complicated reasons behind it, and she
hadn’t clarified them.
She said indifferently, “Mr. Horton and I are indeed legally married. Whether you believe it or not is up to
you.”
“Still being stubborn here! Jake, isn’t the wife of our
uncle always abroad?”
for
Jake had wanted to say this all along but didn’t dare to
speak due to the pressure from Lewis. Now, he immediately sneered. “Indeed, Keira, I courted you four years. How come I didn’t know that you were my aunt by marriage?!”
Isla sighed. “It’s all because of her face. She pleased Mr Horton and got him to join her in deceiving us. Keira really didn’t expect that. Your mother is a mistress, al you, already married, would rather have an affair and
be someone else’s mistress…
