My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire -
Chapter 189
189 Truth
Isla deliberately created the false impression that Keira had pushed her, so defending herself at this moment was the lowest tactic.
Lewis deeply understood the art of negotiation.
Offense was the best defense, which was why he didn’t bother explaining anything about how Keira didn’t lay hands on Isla but instead, he let loose this statement.
The few people in the room were all taken aback upon hearing it!
Lying in the hospital bed, Isla’s eyes flickered and
tearfully she said, “Mom, Jake, to protect Aunt Keira, Uncle even tells such lies. How can I stay in the Horton family after this?”
As she cried, Jake immediately reacted. “Well, Uncle, no wonder you told me that the child wasn’t mine before. It turns out it was all to pave the way to harm this child, wasn’t it?
“And you, Keira, you didn’t accidentally hurt her because of an argument, you did it on purpose! Just

because you can’t have children of your own, you’re jealous of ours, aren’t you?!”
Jake was so angry, his whole body was shaking; he charged up to Keira and shouted, “Keira, I truly didn’t expect you to be such a person! During our four years in college, I treated you so well… I never imagined you could do something like this!”
Madness glinted in his eyes.
When Keira heard him bring up their college days, she couldn’t help but be momentarily stunned.
The hysterical man before her had once been the innocent, sunny youth in college…
She sighed quietly and calmly stated. “The child really isn’t yours.”
“Bullshit! Don’t I know what happened between Isla and me? To absolve yourself, you even stoop to sayi this! Keira, you’ve truly lowered my opinion of you! I’l get to the bottom of this!”
Melissa immediately started crying. “My poor grandchild, gone just because of their jealousy… Ever since Lewis became the family head, we of the first branch have been accommodating at every turn. and

now you’re persecuting Jake’s child. Lewis, tell me, what more do you want from us?”
Oliver also sighed deeply. “Lewis, since we were kids, where have I ever wronged you as your elder brother… Why must you target our first branch like this?
SU
Grandma’s love went all to you, and you control the Horton family. Can’t you leave us be and let us live peacefully?”
After saying that, he turned to Nathan. “Dad, for our future safety, maybe it’s better to divide the family. I’m truly scared. Ever since he returned from abroad, Lewis treated us like strangers, and now, even as Isla lies in a hospital bed, he shows no sign of guilt and instead slanders her… We can’t go on like this!”
He lowered his head and wiped away nonexistent tears from his eyes.
Nathan cursed at Lewis. “Ungrateful creature, you’ve been a bastard since childhood and haven’t changed one bit; do you want to drive your elder brother and his family to their deaths to be satisfied?!”
Lewis watched them coldly, finding their words laughable.

He bullied Oliver since he was young?
When he was born, Oliver was already 14 years old!
As a child, not knowing any better, if he ever offended him, Oliver could respond with violence.
Several times he almost died under his brother’s cruel
pranks!
Even that year when he was nine years old and got kidnapped, it was Oliver who took him out and left him
at the train station!
Such an elder brother, truly “innocent” and “pitiful” indeed!
Add to that their father’s favoritism… Lewis’s heart had long since turned cold.
At that moment, a pair of hands suddenly grasped his
own.
Lewis was slightly taken aback before turning his he to see Keira standing beside him.
The woman stood shoulder to shoulder with him, jointly bearing the malice from the Horton family, which warmed Lewis’s heart.

That’s right.
He was no longer alone.
He gently patted Keira’s hand and said firmly, “Does the first branch of the family wish to separate? I have no objections. After all, they have been living in the main house of the Horton family, occupying the residence that should belong to the family head. Now that my wife and I have returned, indeed, it’s time to free up that place.”
“You…!” Oliver was flustered.
The main house of the Horton family residence had always been inhabited by Oliver and Melissa.
Even after Lewis returned home and became the family head, this fact remained unchanged.
Nathan, the grandfather, justified it by saying that Lewis’s wife hadn’t arrived, and he needed to stay with old Mrs. Horton, so they didn’t vacate the house for the main branch…
It was unexpected that Lewis would bring this up at
this time.
Melissa immediately started crying. “Lewis, your heart

is so cruel! Did you harm Isla’s child just to divide the family? Are you afraid that our branch is flourishing and overshadowing you?”
After saying that, she turned to Keira, “Was it this illegitimate daughter’s idea? Lewis never mentioned this before. As soon as you show up in our house, everything gets turned upside down. How can you, an illegitimate daughter, be so malicious! Do you really want the Horton family to be torn apart?”
Isla also began to cry, “Keira, please don’t do this. We are all one family. I won’t pursue your responsibility anymore. Please don’t instigate Lewis to divide the family, okay?”
Melissa immediately shouted, “Look, that’s the demeanor of a lady from a grand household. Lewis, your wife is an illegitimate daughter. No wonder she’s so petty! In marrying a wife, one should marry a virtuous one. It’s her jealousy that has brought us to this point! Isla is letting it go, but I won’t agree! The child she carried was my grandson! Dad, you can’t ignore this matter!”
Nathan said, “Lewis, since you refuse to relent, I’ll make the decision then. Guards, seize this venomous

woman and make her kneel and apologize to Isla!”
As soon as these words were spoken, two bodyguards entered through the doorway.
They walked straight up to Keira, ready to grab her by the shoulders.
Just as Keira was about to strike back, the man beside her suddenly pressed her shoulder and promptly stepped forward to swiftly repel the two men, shouting, “Tom!”
Several bodyguards immediately surged in at the doorway, standing in front of Keira and Lewis, blocking the Horton family’s bodyguards.
These were Lewis’s personal bodyguards, who took orders from Lewis alone.
Moreover, these bodyguards were clearly not on the same level as those of the Horton family. Standing there, they made the regular Horton family bodyguards hesitant to move forward.
Nathan became furious. “You ungrateful creature, you’ve turned against us! After what you’ve done, are you trying to control us with force? I’m your father!”

Lewis looked at him dispassionately, “You should be grateful you’re my father.”
His words carried an ominous undertone, which even intimidated Nathan. “You, you really dare to commit patricide and fratricide?!”
Lewis no longer wished to talk.
Keira spoke for him. “Mr. Horton, why the rush? The child that Isla miscarried has been taken for testing. Once the results are in, won’t the truth be revealed?”
