Oliver glanced at Marisa and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
If Marisa could fake her behavior this well in front of Grandma, was it possible she was faking it around him, too?
But then, Oliver quickly dismissed the thought.
Sure, someone could pretend for a day, a month, maybe even a year—but no one could keep up an act for twenty-five years, could they?
Selena was twenty-three now, and Marisa had been with him for twenty-five years…
“What am I even thinking?”
Besides, he wasn't going to end up with nothing.
Not only was he fine now, but even when Grandma eventually passed, her estate would be split evenly. Just one percent of Horton Group's shares amounted to hundreds of millions—if not billions—of dollars.
With that thought, Oliver quietly left the room.
Meanwhile, Keira and Jake were discussing the future development of the company, and Jake, as if he were giving an official report, even pulled up a PowerPoint presentation for her.
He looked just like he did back in college, taking things so seriously…
Keira couldn't help but smile.
From the corner of his eye, Lewis noticed this, and his gaze deepened.
Nearby, Marisa and Selena were busy peeling grapes for old Mrs. Horton, meticulously removing the skin and seeds before handing them to her.
Old Mrs. Horton was thoroughly enjoying being pampered.
Lewis, on the other hand, picked up a glass of water and walked over to Keira. “Have some water.”
He interrupted their conversation.
Keira took the glass, sipped the water, and handed it back to him.
Lewis then sat down right beside her, unusually close, and looked at the PowerPoint Jake had made.
Keira suddenly felt a tickle near her ear. She turned her head, and her cheek brushed against Lewis's face. That's when she realized just how close he was sitting.
Keira tried to shift away, but Lewis's arm slid around her waist, pulling her even closer.
Keira shot him a look but stayed silent.
Jake caught sight of the interaction and, with a bitter smile flashing across his face, raised his head and said, “Aunt Keira, what do you think of this proposal?”
The title change clearly pleased Lewis.
Before Keira could answer, Lewis pointed at a few spots on the presentation. “Here, here, and here. These three areas…”
In just a few succinct words, Lewis pointed out the flaws in the presentation.
His straightforwardness gave Jake an epiphany.
Jake looked at Lewis in awe.
