103 Arrest
Keira blinked slightly.
What did Isla steal from her?
While deep in thought, she heard Isla frantically defend herself. “What nonsense
are you spouting?!”
“Did I hit a nerve?”
Connor, who had lost his composure at school, was taunting Isla relentlessly,
using her pain points against her. “Did you not steal Dr. South’s identity from her
to win over Jake? Do you really think Jake would love you? He's just interested in
Dr. South! And then there's the Allen family, you pretended to be Keira again,
Isla. You seem quite familiar with this modus operandi!”
Isla exploded in fury. “Connor Hill, shut your mouth
Connor sneered. “Why should I shut up when you've stolen something even
more important from her? Do you want me to spell it out?”
Something... more important? What could it be?!
Keira frowned.

Isla roared, “Shut up! Shut up!”
It seemed that Connor still had some expectations for her, so he didn’t bring up
that topic anymore, “Isla, I can stay silent, but you have to elope with me. I'll work
hard to earn money and provide you with a better
lifels®
Isla took a deep breath and said resolutely, “You, a dropout, what can you give
me? What I want is the position of the mistress of the Horton family! Connor Hill,
I'm not going with you!”
“You! Aren't you afraid that I'll reveal your secret?!” Connor growled with anger.
Isla chuckled. “Go ahead. Connor Hill, do you honestly believe that only you have
leverage over me and that have no leverage over you?”
Connor was stunned. “What do you mean?”
Isla seemed to have taken out a voice recorder, and after she turned it on, there
was first an electric current hiss, followed by Connor's voice. “Isla, don’t worry. I
killed my father! He'll never bother you again!”
Isla exclaimed, “How could you murder someone? You
will and un in prison!”

“No, I can pin the blame on Keira. Isla, I've removed these two annoying people
for you at once. Remember, it’s all for your own good. I love you...”
The recording abruptly ended.
Isla laughed. “Connor, if you dare expose my secret, I'll hand this over to the
police! If I lose everything, your ending will be a thousand times worse than
mine!”
Connor sounded horrified. “Isla, you can’t treat me like
this!”
“You and your father forced me first!” Isla’s voice was exuberant as she said
quietly, “Connor, we both hold each other's secrets, so let's be at peace.”
“How can I be at peace? I'm surrounded by reporters and attacked by my aunt!
I'm going crazy!”
“Then suck it up!” Isla’s voice was ruthless.
It seemed that Connor was frightened by her. “Isla, don’t you care about my
feelings at all? Don't you love
me?”
But Isla didn’t want to deal with him tactfully anymore. “Are you kidding me? If it
wasn’t for your father forcing me to tutor you, would I have treated you like

that? Every time I see you and your father, I feel sick! You're parasites and blood-
suckers! Connor Hill, don't bother me again!”
Connor was stunned. “You never loved me?”
Isla sneered. “I only love myself! If you obey, we can continue as before. If you
threaten me again, don’t blame me for being unforgiving!”
Connor sobbed. “Isla, don’t scare me. If 'm caught by the police, I'll expose your
secret!”
After saying this, Connor hung up.
In the living room, Keira removed her earphones, her eyes shining brightly.
She took out her cell phone and sent a message to Holly. “You can arrest Connor
Hill now.”
After sending the message, she looked up at Lewis.
Lewis immediately understood her meaning and nodded slightly.
Their tacit interaction made Jake feel very
uncomfortable!
There must be something between his uncle and

Keira. But how could that be? Keira should be his!
He clenched his fist, his eyes welling up with tears. “Uncle, wouldn't Auntie be
displeased with Keira living here and being mistaken as jer by Grandma?”
Lewis smiled. “She probably won't mind. Isn't that right, Miss Olsen?”
Keira raised an eyebrow, “That should be the case, Mr.
Horton.”
Their conversation was polite and distant, but it was strangely sweet.
Jake's anger escalated, and he was about to say something, but Isla walked in
from outside. “Mr. Horton, the point isn’t Mrs. Horton's attitude, but that Keira is
now deep in a public opinion controversy. I just checked online. She actually
attacked a reporte and even harmed her own mother. Mr. Horton, the video of
you taking her away has been released, and now everyone is saying that the
person shielding her is the Horton family...”
Isla handed her phone to Jake. Indeed, the public opinion online was all
criticisms toward the Horton family.

“I was wondering, wasn't she supposed to be a rich second-generation heiress?
Why would she live there? It turns out it's not because this murderer is powerful,
but because someone is shielding her!”
“The person who came to save her had his face blurred, but I can reveal a bit.
That person looked a lot like someone from the H family...
“The H family, the richest in Oceanion?”
“Yes, them...”
Isla calmly said, “I just checked the Horton Group's stocks, and there has been a
slight fluctuation. If journalists confirm that Keira is at the Horton's, it'll
undoubtedly plummet immediately. Mr. Horton, s you wouldn't jeopardize the
Horton Group for a woman, right?”
Lewis straightened his sleeve, a smile still playing on his lips, but he didn’t say a
word.
Jake echoed. “Uncle, you're in charge of the Horton Group. If there's a major
blunder, Grandpa will definitely not let you off! Moreover, the shareholders
of the Horton Crown will aleg hold you rasponsiblal”

Seeing that Lewis still remained
silent, Isla turned towards Keira.

“Heh.”
Keira, who was playing with her phone, chuckled, her voice gentle. “How
coincidental. It's cleared now.”

She handed her phone to Isla.
It showed a photo taken by a reporter of Connor being arrested.
The color drained from Isla’s face instantly!!
