Keira glanced at Erin, who had just spoken up.

Erin nudged her forward, chin held high with pride. ā€œGo on, show them what youā€™ve got! Donā€™t let these people keep looking down on us.ā€

Keira blinked at her.

Her appearance left Eve and Selena momentarily speechless.

Both of them quickly turned to Keira, ā€œAre you really N?ā€

Keira was about to respond when Lewis suddenly cut in, ā€œWhether sheā€™s N or not, as I said, this has nothing to do with Ms. Clark. Butler, itā€™s time to see our guests out.ā€

The butler immediately moved to Eveā€™s side.

Eve stared at Lewis, her eyes brimming with tears as if she were heartbroken. She lifted her chin and asked, ā€œLewis, do you really feel nothing for me?ā€

She stepped closer, her voice trembling, ā€œWe studied abroad together and came back to Crera together. Does everything weā€™ve shared mean less to you than what you have with Keira?ā€

Keira raised an eyebrow at Lewis.

Before she could say anything, Erinā€™s challenging voice piped up from behind, ā€œMr. Horton, whatā€™s this about? Youā€™d better give us an explanation! Whatā€™s all this talk about time abroad? Did you cheat on my cousin?ā€

Keira hesitated, about to speak. Lewis replied, ā€œThereā€™s nothing between us. Sure, we were in the same class, but as for coming back to Crera together, there were over twenty of us who returned at the same time. Ms. Clark, Iā€™m not sure what kind of bond you think we have.ā€

Erin caught on immediately, ā€œOh, so someoneā€™s been getting ahead of themselves.ā€

Lewisā€™s expression darkened, ā€œAlright, this has gone on long enough. Letā€™s end it here.ā€

He was about to say more when Eve suddenly shouted, ā€œLewis, donā€™t you regret this!ā€

Then she shot a venomous look at Keira, leaving her baffledā€”she hadnā€™t done anything to deserve that.

Just as Keira was wondering what was going on, Eve turned to Selena. ā€œSelena, I agree with what you suggested!ā€

Selenaā€™s face immediately brightened, and she quickly exchanged a glance with Oliver.

Oliver burst out laughing, standing up right away. ā€œGood, good! If Lewis doesnā€™t appreciate you, my family will!ā€

Eve lifted her chin and looked at Keira.

Keira was confused for a moment.

She then glanced at Oliver. ā€œSo, should I call you my sister-in-law in the future?ā€

Eveā€™s face darkened.

Oliver started coughing.

Keira turned to Lewis. ā€œYour sister-in-law hasnā€™t divorced your brother, has she?ā€

Lewis played along, ā€œNope. So, Oliver, are you planning on having a second wife?ā€

Oliver was furious.

His face turned an angry shade of blue.

Nathan immediately stood up. ā€œNonsense, what are you babbling about? This is about matching her with your nephew, Jake!ā€

Keira was speechless.

She twitched the corner of her mouth and looked at Eve. ā€œSo, Ms. Clark, youā€™re going to be my nephewā€™s wife? What should you call me then?ā€

Eve couldnā€™t believe it.

She clenched her fists.

Lewis spoke up, ā€œMs. Clark was always the best at etiquette; surely, she wouldnā€™t forget her manners, right?ā€

Eve was at a loss. ā€œUncle Lewis, Aunt Keera.ā€

ā€œGood.ā€

Keira responded, thinking how ridiculous this all wasā€”Eve had come here with all that attitude to end up as her nephewā€™s wife.

As Keira pondered, Erin brushed past her toward Eve. ā€œOn behalf of my cousin, Iā€™d like to give you a welcome gift, dear nephewā€™s wife! If youā€™d admitted earlier that you liked Jake, we wouldnā€™t have been blindsided like this.ā€

She rummaged in her pocket, pulled out a few pistachio shells, and placed them in Eveā€™s hand. ā€œSorry, I was in such a hurry when I left home that this is all I brought today.ā€

Eve stared at the shells in disbelief.

The others exchanged looks, equally baffled.

After giving the ā€œgiftā€, Erin shot a mischievous grin at Keira.

Keira was speechless.

She didnā€™t know whether Erin was helping or causing trouble.

Erinā€™s behavior was indeed unpredictable.

As Keira observed Erin, Eve took a deep breath. Selena immediately said, ā€œDad, since Jake is marrying a prominent figure like Eve, shouldnā€™t we consider asking Great-Grandma to allocate some shares to Jake?ā€

Lewisā€™s eyes darkened at the suggestion.

So, they were after the shares again.

Keira frowned.

Lewis immediately said, ā€œIā€™m going to check on Grandma.ā€

Keira quickly followed him.

Seeing this, Erin followed right behind them.

Keira frowned, ā€œWhat are you doing?ā€

ā€œSticking with you so I donā€™t accidentally cause trouble!ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€

Keira sighed and turned to Lewis. ā€œIs Grandma okay? Nothingā€™s happened, right?ā€

Lewis lowered his gaze. ā€œGrandmaā€™s mind is clear now, butā€¦ given her age, the doctor said she doesnā€™t have much time left.ā€
