19 She Has Always Known
Keira stared dumbfounded at the marriage certificate
in her hand.
She suddenly realized, that the first time old Mrs. Horton saw her, she called her
“granddaughter-in-law”. The old lady had known all along that Keira and Lewis
were married!
Keira felt that she had found a clue.
She immediately asked, “Grandma, how did you come by this marriage
certificate?”
Old Mrs. Horton was taken aback, her eyes growing a touch bewildered. “I... I
can't really remember.”
Keira continued. “How did Mr. Horton and I come to
be married?”
Old Mrs. Horton just shook her head. “I don’t recall:
Keira grew somewhat anxious. “Grandma, please try to
think back...”
“Enough!”

Lewis said unhappily, his towering figure standing
between the two women. His eyes were cold when he asked, “Miss Olsen, is this
certificate real?”
“Of course.”
Lewis's face darkened. “Are you going to say we don't need to go to the Civil
Affairs Bureau now?”
So that was her aim!
She used a legitimate excuse like going to the Civil Affairs Bureau as a setup,
then lured his grandma into taking out this fake certificate and tricking him into
believing it was true.
If he hadn't seen how his grandma just did as she was told, he might have
believed Keira!
Keira sensed the hostility in the man’s tone and found it baffling. “We don't have
to go today.”
Divorce isn't something that could be resolved by just stopping by the Civil Affairs
Bureau.
For two years, they were legally husband and wife, so there were a lot of
property distribution issues to deal with They needed to sign a divorce agreement

“No.”
After Lewis spoke, he carefully observed Keira.
She was slightly taken aback, then she said nonchalantly, “Whatever you say.”
He wondered if she was too confident in her acting that she wouldn't give up until
the last moment.
Or was this marriage certificate genuine?
Lewis was suddenly unsure. He simply picked up the marriage certificate and
headed out. “I'll wait for you in the parking lot.”
Keira smiled reassuringly at the old lady, then followed Lewis out.
The man walked quickly, and she almost had to trot to keep up with him.
When they arrived at the parking lot, they saw Poppy standing there with an
ashen-faced Isla, who was shaking and sneezing. Poppy seemed heartbroken.
On seeing Keira, Poppy's eyes lit up. “Keira!”
She quickly walked over, cautiously avoiding Lewis.

She stood before Keira and said self-righteously, “You must help your sister!”
Keira raised an eyebrow.
She didn’t understand why the two were out so early
in the morning.
Didn't they leave last night?
Before she could speak, Poppy was already rambling.
“Keira, you're an illegitimate child, but the Olsen family didn’t mind your
background and raised you. For all the hardship they went through, you should
reciprocate for the Olsen family...
“Your sister has been even better to you. Not only did she let you go to school
with her, but she also shared her clothes with you.
“And also, you were so weak when you were born th you wouldn't have survived.

supposed to be for your sister.
“Back then, the Olsen family hadn't intended to take us in. Mrs. Olsen and your
father only decided to keep us

because you
and your sister were born the same day...
“So, you owe your sister. You should repay her kindness all your life..."
Keira hadn't heard those words in ten years.
When she was little, she believed these lies and worked like a horse for the
Olsen family. She let Isla bully her. How ridiculous!
Indeed, the Olsen family had raised her, but parents having to raise a child was a
legal obligation. If they hadn't taken care of her, they would have been guilty
of desertion!
She did go to school with Isla Olsen, but she had to carry Isla’s school on their
way to school and back home. She also had to be Olsen's servant at school.
If Isla happened to cough one day, it was Keira’s fault for not taking good care of
her, and she would get beaten by Poppy.
In school, she could only get the last place in exams because she couldn't
outshine Isla!
And the clothes... Her parents never prepared any for

her. She could only wear Isla’s hand-me-downs; hence, her clothes were always
a bit too small.
Mrs. Olsen did buy her a new dress once, but as soon as she put it on, it was
taken off by Poppy and given to Isla, stating that she wasn’t good enough! She
couldn't be prettier than Isla!
As for being weak...
Which baby wouldn't be weak after being starved for five days?
The mockery in Keira’s eyes grew more intense.
But Poppy didn’t sense her emotions at all. After saying those things, she
immediately added, “Now that you've grown up, you finally have a chance to
repay the Olsen family. Keira, old Mrs. Horton listens to you right? Ask her to
return the 2% of the shares to your sister!”
Keira looked down and laughed. “You're right.”
Poppy's face lit up, thinking she had convinced Keira, only to hear the girl's
indifferent voice a moment later.

“I'm just a lowborn illegitimate daughter. How could old Mrs. Horton possibly
listen to me?”
Poppy froze, wanting to say something else, but Keira had already walked past
her and got into Lewis's car.
“Let's go.”
Lewis was speechless.
He looked at the girl sitting in the back seat, thinking about telling her that the
driver hadn't arrived yet.
But then Poppy seemed to try to run to the car.
Lewis sat behind the wheel and closed the door. He then slowly fastened his
seatbelt before starting the car and driving off.
The black Bentley drove smoothly.
Lewis looked back at the girl through his rearview mirror. She was staring at the
passing scenery outside the window. Her exquisite and beautiful face was calm.
He looked away and continued driving.
He had planned to warn her, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.

“Livestream eating shit?”
Before Tom could finish, he heard a lazy female voice.
He stiffened and slowly looked at the backseat to find Keira with a teasing look in
her eyes, “Which livestream channel do you use?”

Tom was completely stunned!
The three of them entered the Civil Affairs Bureau and approached the service
window.
Tom took the lead and asked, “Hi, I have an inquiry. Can one pick up the
marriage certificate without the persons involved being present?”
The clerk said, “Absolutely not.”
