My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

Keira opened the Twitter post and saw that it was a video shot by Josh.
In the video, Isla and Connor met each other, hiding in a corner. Due to the
distance, it was unclear what they were saying; one could only see that Connor
was very agitated.
Josh tried to get closer, and the camera slowly moved through an inconspicuous
corner. After closing in, one could hear the voices of the two people talking, with
Isla saying, “Don’t panic. As long as you don't slip up, the police won't have any
evidence. The job you did
was seamless!”
Connor replied anxiously, “But now the journalists are
all after me...”
Suddenly, Isla yelled out, “Who's there?”
They both turned around to look at the camera.
Immediately, Josh’s camera shifted to the side, capturing the ground.
Then Isla’s voice followed, “What did you manage to

capture?”
Josh spoke up. “I'm a journalist. I have the right to disclose anything I capture!”
Isla took a deep breath. “How much do you want? I can give it to you! Just delete
the video!”
Connor also came closer, saying, “Right. Delete the video, or you won't be
leaving here today!”
His voice carried a chilling malice.
Josh was clearly nervous. “Alright, I'll delete it now.”
His camera went black.
However, what Connor and Isla might not realize was that the technology for
follow-up filming had
improved greatly. At least, the footage shot by journalists could be instantly
transmitted to online.

After posting the video, Josh immediately tweeted, “Miss Olsen and Connor were
plotting together, showing a fierce demeanor. At that time, I feigned cooperation
and deleted the video. Later, I received an anonymous recording and handed it
over to the police myself! Yet Miss Olsen shamelessly snatched the

credit!”
Josh didn’t have many followers, so this tweet didn't attract much attention after it
was posted.
Josh sent Keira the link to the Twitter post and then made a request. “Ms. S, the
voice of one person might not be heard by society. Could you help me by sharing
it?”
Keira's Twitter account had several million followers.
Back when she was working part-time as a journalist, her posts were known to
be fair and objective, which made them popular, and she later went viral for
exposing a major corporation for discharging polluted
water.
People had a lot of trust in her messages.
Over the years, whenever there were reports that struggled to gain attention,
people in the journalist circle liked to seek her help.
Keira would have someone investigate the matter thoroughly and, if it turned out
to be true, she would agree to share it.
Every post she shared would draw public attention.

Of course, Josh’s post didn’t need any investigation.
Keira had been a participant all along and was very clear about the truth, so she
chose to share it right away. Almost the instant she did, people started to
react.
“Ms. S is playing the hero again!”
“Let's see what the incident is this time?”
“The internet has been abuzz with the story of a Miss Olsen bravely stepping
forward and handing in a recording, turns out it's fake?! Damn! No wonder the
police haven't issued any reward notice! It's been hyped so much that I actually
thought it was true!”
“Someone has already said that Miss Olsen is going to marry into the Horton
family, as in Oceanion’s riches the Hortons. Would they accept someone with
such character?”
After retweeting, Keira didn’t look at the comments online anymore.
She leisurely put away her phone and looked at the exquisite breakfast on the
dining table.

If the quarrel continued and she didn't eat, it would get cold. What a waste!
She was thinking about that when a fork suddenly appeared and placed a
croissant onto her plate.
Keira was slightly startled.
But when she looked up, she met Lewis's eyes, which were filled with a smile.
Keira suddenly felt a bit embarrassed and quickly looked around, only to find that
everyone's focus was on the shares, and no one was paying attention to their
small gestures.
She quietly let out a sigh of relief, lowered her head, and bit into the croissant.
The rich fragrance explode in her mouth, and it was delicious enough to make on

Her eyes brightened slightly as she ate and waited for the fiasco on the
microblog to ferment, looking
forward to seeing the first branch of the family’s
reaction.
Unfortunately, they hadn’t noticed the change in the situation at the moment and
were still aggressively

The old lady was indignant, slamming her hand on the table and shouting, “So
what if I'm biased? Over the years, if I hadn't favored Lewis, he would have been
ostracized and lost his status in this family!”
She stood up, and even though she had started to shrink in height at her age and
looked withered and frail, her actions still exuded elegance and authority.
“Nathan, tell me, they're both your sons, but you only have eyes for the elder
one. Have you ever cared for
Lewis?
“When he was so young, he lay in the hospital covered in tubes and was at
death's door. Your
fourteen-year-old elder son just had a little cold, but you left your newborn baby
and went away to take care of your elder son!
“Lewis survived the first hurdle but after coming home you neglected him again,
revolving solely around the elder son. If I, as their grandmother, didn’t favor him,
I'm afraid you would've long forgotten him!
“And about the shares. I don't like Isla, so why should I give her any? Who's rule
is that? When Lewis got married and came back to announce it to everyone,

them to him? What did you say at that time?
“You said you didn't like a daughter-in-law who couldn't present well in society,
that the shares were yours to do with as you wished, and that no one could force
you if you didn’t want to give them up. So how come you can pressure me now?”
Nathan frowned immediately. “Mom, those things are in the past, so why bring
them up now? The current situation is special. Lewis's wife isn't so publicly
known, but Isla is different. Although the Hortons are the richest in Oceanion, we
are still businessmen. Nowadays, everyone likes businessmen with a sense of
righteousness and loyalty. Elevating Isla’s status can cast a positive image on the
Horton Group. So, let's not talk about the past, okay?”
The old lady snatched a bowl from the table and slammed it down. “You don’t
allow me to mention i
nor to show favoritism. Then let's be fair! If you wan me to give Isla shares, fine,
but you have to give the shares to your daughter-in-law first!”
Nathan frowned again.
