My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

The elevator arrived. O
Keira stepped out of the elevator and headed toward the reserved private room.
Charles swallowed hard, took a few quick steps, and
came up beside her. He still couldn't believe it and wanted to confirm something,
but he didn’t know what
to say.
It was then he realized that when someone was extremely surprised, they
actually couldn't speak.
Charles pointed to his phone, then pointed at Keira.
Keira smiled at him kindly, and then Charles just followed her into the private
room, looking so
dumb.
The Horton family had a solid status in Oceanic Emperor Palace Hotel was a part
of Horton Grou enterprises, so it was very easy for Jake to book a private room
here.
The large private room featured a huge table that could seat twenty to thirty
people.

When Keira entered the room, there were already a dozen or so people inside.
They all just graduated this year, so the discussion wasn’t about trivial family
matters but about work.
As soon as Keira and Charles entered, the room quieted down momentarily.
The gaze of the male students all fell on Keira.
After all, during their school days, this seemingly unapproachable beauty was so
aloof that the only legends in the class were about her, and the only person who
could have a few words with her was Jake.
Keira was the goddess in the hearts of many male students.
Seeing Charles entering with Keira, and noticing that his eyes were somewhat
glazed over as he dumbly followed her, it wasn't until she reached a seat that he
suddenly realized something and hurriedly pulled out a chair for her. “Please...
please have a seat.”
This was his boss, the owner of the company!
Charles's actions, however, led to a misunderstanding, and everyone started
teasing him.

“Charles, what's your relationship with Keira?”
“How did you come together? Come on, what happened after graduation that we
don’t know about?”
Charles panicked and immediately waved his hands. “Don’t talk nonsense!”
Him with Dr. South?!
He wouldn't!
Leaving these words, Charles took a seat next to Keira.
This was an opportunity to get on good terms with the boss, and he couldn't let it
slip by.
Next to them was a young woman named Erin Davis. She had kept an eye on
them since they entered the room. She had always liked Charles during colle
They were WhatsApp friends and had been in f touch over the past two months,
but nothing wa settled yet.
Now, Charles's attentive gesture to Keira was more
than Erin could bear.
She spoke in a sarcastic tone. “Keira, I heard from Isla that you hadn’t found a
job yet.”

Keira raised an eyebrow and looked at her without saying a word.
Erin continued. “You don't have to feel embarrassed. There are so many
classmates here today. If you haven't found a job, you can ask everyone to
introduce you to one. Oh, our receptionist just quit, and we're hiring. Do you want
to give it a try?”
Keira frowned.
Charles then spoke up. “Don’t be ridiculous. How could D... I mean, how could
Keira possibly work as a receptionist!”
Erin scoffed. “What? Do you look down on receptionists? It's a proper job! And do
you think being a receptionist is so easy?”
Charles immediately said, “That's not what I meant, Keira... the field she studied
doesn’t match with being
receptionist!”
“But she hasn't been able to find a job. Maybe because her grades in her major
weren't that good, right? Keira has one advantage, though; she’s pretty and
could be the face of the company. I'm thinking of her best. interests. After all, it's

since graduation. Doesn't Keira feel the pressure to earn a living?”
Keira frowned and snorted. “I don't need you to worry
about my affairs.”
She knew that at a class reunion like this, she was
bound to encounter ostracism.
After all, when Isla transferred to her department in the university, she had
indeed spurred the other girls to isolate Keira.
But today was Professor Miller's birthday; he was like a teacher and a father to
her, so she had to be here.
Keira carried an air of aloofness. With her words, Erin was speechless and
seemed a bit angry as she said condescendingly, “I overstepped. I was just
worried that you were struggling to find a job. Since you're ungrateful, I'll just
drop it!”
A young man also thought Keira's attitude a bit inappropriate, so he frowned and
said, “We're all classmates here. Maybe the tone of our conversation isn't the
best, but it’s for your own good, Keira. There's no need to be so dismissive,
right?”
Erin pretended to be apologetic. “Don’t say that. I

shouldn't have brought it up at the reunion. After all, this is Keira’s private matter,
and it was indeed embarrassing for her. Keira, if you're really bothered by this,
then I apologize.”
The young man let out a cold laugh. “I don’t understand why we can't talk about
this at a class reunion. Isn't this a fact? Is it all about saving face without asking
for help? Keira, sometimes in life, you shouldn't care about such ethereal things
too much. It's better to be down-to-earth!”
Keira was perplexed,
Her gaze became even colder. “Sometimes, the best thing to do is not to meddle
in others’ business, right?”
“You!”
The young man was angry and pointed at her. He on managed to say one word
before Erin grabbed his ar “Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Next
topic?”
The man scoffed, “She really doesn’t appreciate good intentions!”
Seeing she had the upper hand, Erin laughed and changed the subiect. “Actually

among us, Charles found the best job! Do you know who he’s working under?”
Everyone became curious all at once. “Who?”
Erin looked at Keira and asked, “Keira, do you know?”
Keira didn’t know what to say.

“Is Dr. South a man or a woman?”
“What kind of question is that? Definitely a man, a cultured and scholarly middle-

“Charles, have you met Dr. South in person? Can you get me his autograph?”
“My gosh, to think a classmate of mine works under Dr. South. I'll be proud to tell
