229 She’s Nora

As soon as she said this, everyone turned to look at

her.

Mr. Horton immediately said, “What do you mean? Can the medicine from Clance be bought and sold now?”

“Of course not.”

Oliver breathed a sigh of relief. “If it can’t be bought, the third medication has already been taken away by the

police as contraband, so where would more medicine cfrom?!”

Keira then looked toward Corey.

She hadn't actually figured out an excuse and didn’t know what to say about the situation, so she had avoided

bringing it up until now.

But Corey was capable enough to handle the situation.

Indeed, Corey immediately stepped forward with a smile, and without letting her down, he began. “Here’s the

thing. Miss Olsen had previously submitted old Mrs. Horton's medical case to our institute. To tell the

truth, for an 86-year-old, taking more medication isn’t

very effective, and they could only expect to live

another two years at most. Normally, we wouldn't allocate a slot to someone of that age. But...”

Corey went on. “Miss Olsen has my number, see, and she would callevery day, speaking earnestly, with

touching words. It’s rare to encounter someone with such excellent qualities. Miss Olsen is so gentle and

virtuous, and I'm sure she’s a good wife and loving

mother...”

Keira, seeing that he was going on and on and was even about to continue, suddenly coughed and shot him a

wary glance.

Corey instantly took the cue and promptly cut off the speech. “In short, | was moved by Miss Olsen, so | made a

request to Nora. Nora found value in study someone 86 years old, and so our institute decided give old Mrs.

Horton a slot!”

This statement made everyone's eyes widen in surprise!

Mr. Horton was especially incredulous as he looked toward Keira and immediately said awkwardly, “Keira,

[e]

that’s so... why didn’t you say so earlier? | even

misunderstood you. It turns out you went to such lengths...”

Keira didn’t say anything

Well...

Before Corey mentioned that was the reason,

she

herself didn’t even know what story he would make up!

Old Mrs. Horton immediately said, “Brother-in-law, | told you that you were too impulsive. Keira is the

granddaughter-in-law I'm most satisfied with. She would never harm me!”

Mr. Horton then sat down beside her. “Now | truly believe it. Sister-in-law, you found a good wife for

Lewis!”

The two of them started to laugh merrily.

Meanwhile, Oliver and Nathan looked as if their faces

were made of iron.

Lewis glared at them, “Dad, elder brother, just now you didn’t listen to any explanations and cursed at Keira

here. Isn't it tyou apologized to her?!”

Nathan choked.

Oliver sighed, “Lewis, had you guys explained things clearly from the start, it would have prevented everyone

from misunderstanding. It’s good that Keira got a slot, but why hide it? What was the point?”

Nathan immediately snorted coldly, seeking an excuse. “Right, did you deliberately avoid giving a clear

explanation? If you got the slot, just say it. Why all the secrecy? Is playing games with us amusing?!”

Was this pushing the blonto them?

Keira felt speechless.

But Lewis then looked at Selena. “If we hadn't done this, how would | have learned that your beloved

granddaughter, my elder brother's illegitimate daughter, still harbors thoughts of wanting a share in the

inheritance?”

Keira nodded in agreement. “Selena, if you want share, just say so. Why the secrecy? Is playing ga with your

father and grandfather fun?”

Nathan was dumbfounded.

Why did those words sound so familiar?

Oliver also tensed his jaw.

Selena felt utterly humiliated, but she quickly regained her composure, bowed her head, and burst into sobs.

“I'm about to marry into the Cobb family, but my family hasn't prepared a dowry for me. | just feel so

embarrassed... And now r. Lee has been implicated by me, | don’t even know how to explain this to the Cobb

family! Forget it. This marriage wasreaching above my station. | won't marry then!”

Leaving these words behind, she put on an expression of shand indignation, covered her face, and ran out

crying.

Nathan said anxiously, “How can she not marry? Oliver, go and comfort Selena. This is a great opportunity for a

marriage alliance between the Horton family and the Cobb family. Tell her that the family’s shares will definitely

be ready for her!”

Oliver cared deeply for his daughter and besides, her return, she had suppressed Lewis and Keira.

At least before today, she had even managed to take control of old Mrs. Horton's courtyard.

So, he immediately chased after her.

Lewis and Keira exchanged glances before leaving Mr.

Horton and old Mrs. Horton to chat and followed

Selena out.

Once they stepped outside, they saw Selena, amidst sobs, packing up her things in the room as if grievously

wronged, speaking to Oliver, “Dad, | just can’t bring myself to stay here any longer. I'm moving out right

now.”

After saying that, she grabbed two large suitcases and started to walk out.

But she was blocked by Lewis and Keira.

Selena looked at them with pitiable eyes. “Uncle Lewis, Aunt Keira, | was wrong. Isn't it enough that I'm leaving

now? Do | have to kneel and apologize too?”

Keira said, “That’s not necessary.”

Selena bowed her head immediately and turned to

leave from between them.

But she was blocked by Keira once again.

Selena was puzzled and heard Keira say, “You can go, but leave Grandma's things behind.”

Selena was shocked.

A hint of spite flashed in her eyes.

She had intentionally played the part of the wronged party to rush out, even hastily carrying baggage that had

been packed early, all to take things she had pilfered from old Mrs. Horton's possession.

But she hadn't expected they would find out.

With a pitiable look, she turned to Keira. “Aunt Keira, | don’t know what you're talking about. This suitcase is

filled with my own belongings! | know you don’t like me, but are you really going to search my luggage?”

Keira replied with a smile, “Or should | report a theft to the police, saying grandmother's belongings have gone

missing? | remember a bracelet. It’s worth tens of millions, you know...”

Selena clenched her fists, smiling. “Ah, sorry, | might have accidentally packed it in the suitcase.”

Then she opened the suitcase, not daring to full reveal its contents, she stealthily took out the bra

At that moment, Fiona returned, having taken the puppy to the vet..

Keira immediately called out, “Fiona, you're familiar with grandmother's things. Chelp Miss Selena so that

she doesn’t accidentally pack grandmother's things in her suitcase again!”

Upon hearing this, Fiona’s eyes lit up tically. Shaking off her earlier dejection, she strode over with a

triumphant air. “Miss Selena, please open your

suitcases...”

Selena was dumbfounded.

Keira, arms folded, watched from a distance. Her frustrations from the previous day were repaid today, which felt

extremely satisfying!

As she was pondering, Lewis suddenly turned his head and spoke in a low voice. “Got it all out of your system,

Nora?”

Keira was dumbfounded.
