Billionaire

410 Chapter 409 

Everyone turned their heads and saw the wedding gifts from the Horton family being brought in one by 

one. 

Over a dozen bodyguards each carried a box. 

The contents of those boxes, displayed before everyone, were either jewelry of inestimable value or shops and properties in Clance that were difficult to purchase. 

Each wedding gift was enough to incite envy. 

Even these wealthy people couldn’t help but sigh at the Horton family’s generous dowry. 

People looked on with admiration and then craned their necks to see if they could get a glimpse of this mysterious Mr. Horton. 

Following the long procession of gifts was a man in a 

suit. 

He was tall and well-built, with a happy, handsome face and a slightly infuriating smile… 

“Is this Mr. Horton? He looks quite imposing!” 

33: 

4to Chapter 400 

“Not bad-looking at all.” 

“It’s just that he doesn’t quite match the stories we’ve 

heard…” 

Hearing the surrounding conversation, Keira couldn’t help but twitch her mouth. 

The man who had arrived wasn’t Lewis but Tom! 

That man made such a big show, yet he didn’t show up in person? 

She pursed her lips. 

By then, Tom had already approached Uncle Olsen and respectfully began. “Uncle Olsen, Mr. Horton has another very important matter and can’t make an appearance, so he specially sent me to deliver the betrothal gifts from the Horton and Olsen families.” 

Uncle Olsen glanced at Keira. 

He certainly knew what that “very important” matter. Lewis had was being Keira’s driver! 

He twitched his mouth and only said, “That’s very 

considerate of him.” 

“To marry the daughter of the Olsen family, one 

13:23 

410 Chapter 409 

certainly must put in some effort!” 

Tom smiled ingratiatingly and then looked toward Keira, raising his eyebrows as a greeting. 

If Lewis could guess Keira’s identity, Tom, as Lewis’s assistant, surely could see through it as well… 

Keira returned his greeting with a roll of her eyes. 

Immediately, Tom laughed. 

He was genuinely happy. 

When Keira died, Mr. Horton looked as if he was going to follow her to the grave! 

Thankfully, the lady didn’t die, and Mr. Horton also got his life back as a result! 

He was thinking of this when the people around suddenly realized that this unremarkable man wasn’t Mr. Horton, but Mr. Horton’s assistant. 

The wedding gifts were placed aside one by one. 

No one cared about the food anymore; they immediately went over to take a closer look. 

Some even looked toward Victoria. “Miss Olsen, come quickly to see your dowry!”

Victoria blushed and then stood up. 

She felt she had finally reclaimed some ground. 

Just now, after Keera was introduced, the seven 

brothers gave her so many gifts that the way everyone looked at her made it seem like she was losing favor in the Olsen family! 

But now, the dowry from the Horton family was even more than what the seven brothers had given Keera 

combined! 

“Heavens! There are even shares of the Horton Group inside – fifteen percent!” 

“I heard that the first and second branches of the 

Horton Group were competing fiercely, and Mr. Horton just gave away fifteen percent of the shares as a betrothal gift to Miss Olsen. He must be really 

serious!” 

“Although it’s a second marriage for Mr. Horton, he’s really treating Miss Olsen nicely!” 

When Victoria heard about the fifteen percent of the shares, she was also astonished, and her eyes widened. She had never imagined that Lewis’s determination to 

marry her was this atronal 

13.23

410 Chapter 409 

There had been no response from the Horton family before, and she thought the marriage was off! 

She started to smile. 

Someone beside her began to speak. 

“Miss Olsen, your betrothal gift is truly the talk of Clance!” 

“Right, the Horton family is so sincere. The Olsen family must also be preparing a generous dowry. The biggest beneficiary of this marriage alliance turns out to be Miss Olsen!” 

While a group of people were offering Victoria their congratulations, Joseph’s daughter turned to Keera with a sneer. “See that? This is the scale on which the Olsen family marries off a daughter! Keera, what did Howard give you when you got married?” 

After her mocking words, Victoria revealed a smug smile at the corner of her lips. 

She immediately said, “Don’t say that. Keera wasn’t acknowledged back then, so of course, she wasn’t treated well. Uncle Olsen, if Keera remarries Howard, 

5/9 

13:23 

410 Chapter 409 

or if she marries someone else in the future, we must make up for her dowry…” 

Her insincere words made Keira scoff. 

Uncle Olsen also raised an eyebrow. 

Ellis, standing nearby, caught the insinuations in the 

conversation. 

James, being a straightforward man, took it seriously and immediately nodded. “Right, right, Uncle Olsen, we still need to prepare some assets for Keera!” 

Charles also nodded. “Keera, don’t remarry that Howard. Clance has plenty of eligible bachelors. If we can’t find a top-tier tycoon, we can still find someone decent. We’ll add to your dowry then!” 

Keira didn’t know what to say. 

Victoria, feigning concern, spoke again. “Keera, why aren’t you speaking? Are you unhappy? If so, I could share half of the Horton family’s betrothal gifts with 

you…” 

At these words, Joseph’s daughter immediately said, “Miss Victoria, those are the Horton family’s betrothal gifts. How can you share them? You’re spoiling her too 

13:23

much!” 

Tom also furrowed his brows. “Exactly, why would you get to take half?” 

Victoria hurriedly explained, “It’s not like that. My sister has just been reunited with the family, and as her older sister, I ought to give a greeting present… 

11 

As soon as she finished speaking, Tom scoffed. “Then give from your own things. Taking half of Miss Keera’s betrothal gifts and giving them to her? What does that mean? Even making a gesture of borrowed offerings should be done right, shouldn’t it?” 

Victoria was confused. 

She was a bit dumbfounded. “What do you mean… Miss Keera’s betrothal gifts?” 

Joseph’s daughter was also stunned, pointing incredulously at the betrothal gifts. “Aren’t these the betrothal gifts given by the Horton family for proposing to the Olsen family? The unmarried daughter of the Olsen family is Victoria!” 

Tom was equally bewildered, but then pointed at Keira, saying, “You’ve got it all wrong! The gifts from the 

Horton family is for Miss Keera Olsen!” 

13:23 

川 

O 

410 Chapter 409 

Since Keera was recognized by her family, she 

naturally took the surname. 

With that, she became Keera Olsen. 

Therefore, everyone understood what Tom meant! 

Victoria was stunned, her voice becoming shrill. “What are you saying?” 

Joseph’s daughter was in disbelief, glaring at them. “Sir, do you even know what you are talking about? Keera has been married before! She even has a daughter! Have you made a mistake?” 

It was only then that Tom finally understood their 

meaning and glanced at Keira. 

He realized why his boss had made such a grand gesture of betrothal, which was to establish his wife’s 

position! 

With a sneer, he clarified. “Let’s make this clear! Mr. Horton is also entering a second marriage, and he and Miss Keera Olsen are truly a match made in heaven! 

Today, knowing that Miss Keera has returned to her family, we’ve come especially to present the betrothal gifts! Only a biological daughter of Uncle Olsen is fit to 

be the lady of the Horton family! What right does on

Tom’s voice was loud and clear, making everyone at the banquet widen their eyes in disbelief. 

1 

Joseph’s daughter felt she must have heard him wrong. 

Victoria was stunned and felt that something was very wrong with the way things were unfolding. 

How could this be? 

She looked at “Keera” in shock. How could Lewis possibly take an interest in such a discarded and defeated woman just because she was the legitimate daughter? 

She clenched her fists tightly, refusing to believe everything that was happening before her eyes. 

After a moment of silence, the surrounding crowd burst into activity again. 

Those who had been encircling Victoria now rushed toward Keira, their faces adorned with flattering 

smiles. 

“Miss Keera, congratulations!” 

13:23 

1/9 

411 Chapter 410 

“Mr. Horton values you so much that he specifically came to make a betrothal during your family reunion banquet. You’re so fortunate!” 

“Congratulations!” 

… 

Even the seven Olsen brothers suddenly showed joy on their faces and hurried over to Keira. 

James crossed his arms. “Well, that Lewis didn’t even come to make the betrothal himself. How insincere!” 

Charles then said, “Exactly, if he ever treats you badly in the future, just say the word, and all seven of us will back you up!” 

Ellis scolded the two of them. “Be quiet!” 

James sneaked a glance at Keira, and after hesitating for a long time, he swallowed the words he was about 

to say. 

He wanted to persuade his little sister to break up with that gigolo. After all, her fiancé was now Lewis. Keeping that gigolo around would be like slapping Lewis’s face, wouldn’t it? 

But now wasn’t the right time: it would be better to 

13:23 

2/9 

O 

< 

411 Chapter 410 

give her a private reminder later. 

Keira looked at her seven brothers with a hint of a 

smile on her face. 

Although she didn’t need their kindness, the feeling of having a family… wasn’t too bad! 

10 

Victoria was pushed back by the crowd and took a step backward. She wanted to step forward but couldn’t blend into the group, so she could only stand bitterly behind the crowd as if she had been forgotten! 

She took a deep breath, suddenly stepped forward, and approached Keira with a concerned look. “Keera, now that you’re engaged to Mr. Horton, what about your boyfriend?” 

At those words, everyone immediately fell silent 

Someone couldn’t help asking, “What boyfriend? 

James immediately gave Victoria a warning look, conveying that now wasn’t the time for such talk. 

But Victoria pretended not to see it and frowned wit worry. “It’s that college student you brought to the banquet last time, the one who’s really handsome, even better looking than any celebrity I’ve seen. It’s 

13:23 

O 

T 

3/9 

411 Chapter 410 

just… Keera, shouldn’t you break up with him first?” 

James was shocked! 

He immediately became anxious, hastily turned to Tom, and was just about to try explaining when Joseph’s daughter blurted out, “Yes, she has a boyfriend! Sir, you must tell Mr. Horton. Don’t be deceived by her! After her divorce, she kept a gigolo around. What right does such a promiscuous woman 

have to be Mrs. Horton?!” · 

James immediately said, “Don’t be ridiculous! That… that was just my sister’s driver! Yes, just a driver! He’s 

not even a friend!” 

Keira watched him as he blatantly lie. 

Who was it that had stormed into her home a few day ago, demanding that she break up with Lewis? 

And now he was defending her with such statements in public. 

Despite previously being a bit annoying, her brother was somewhat endearing now! 

Joseph’s daughter then sneered. “What driver? At the last banquet, she admitted in front of everyone that 

13:24 

4/9 

411 Chapter 410 

that gigolo was her boyfriend. Sir, don’t be fooled!” 

Tom’s face immediately darkened upon hearing this. 

Who were they calling a gigolo?! 

Seeing his displeasure, Victoria felt certain that the 

matter was settled. 

Their marriage was definitely off! 

After all, no man could accept his fiancée fooling 

around outside, could he? 

But just as she thought of this, she heard Tom sigh. “Mr. Horton is aware of this matter.” 

Everyone was perplexed. 

Then they heard Tom continue. “But he doesn’t mind, as long as Miss Olsen is willing to marry him.” 

Everyone was now astonished. 

Had they misheard just now? 

Or had the world turned into fantasy?! 

Lewis was the richest man in Oceanion. The Horton family moved to Clance over two months ago and was gradually relocating their entire clan there… 

13:24 

5/9 

< 

411 Chapter 410 

Mr. Horton, the man who took control of the Horton family, feared and ruthless, was actually so in love with 

a woman?! 

For “Keera”, he was willing to stoop to such a humble 

act? 

Joseph’s daughter couldn’t help but say, “Why? Just because she’s Uncle Olsen’s biological daughter? We’ve seen plenty of prestigious family alliances through marriage, but never one so indecent!” 

In the circle of elites, everyone’s marriage was tied to business. 

Many couples were merely nominal husband and wife. 

But even so, while each had their own affairs, they would still produce decent heirs and keep their lovers in the shadows, at least not blatantly dishonoring each other. 

The boyfriend of “Keera’s” was already known to everyone; with things gone this far, how could someone of Lewis’s lofty status not care? 

Tom tilted his chin upward and then spun his tale with utmost seriousness. “Of course not. Mr. Horton met 

Miss Voorn and was tolzen abook bu har haautu vouing 

33:24

411 Chapter 410 

to wed no other in this life. Even though Miss Olsen’s heart belongs to another, Mr. Horton wouldn’t mind sharing her with another man! Mr. Horton’s admiration for Miss Olsen is immense, his love as deep-rooted as 

the seas…” 

Keira was dumbfounded. 

This Tom really had a flair for drama! 

She glared at Tom, making him immediately stop his flattery, and he summarized, “In short, Mr. Horton is devoted to Miss Keera only!” 

Everyone was speechless. 

They were all stunned. 

No one could believe it, feeling certain that there was something wrong with the way they’d come to the party that evening. 

James, taking the words for truth, gave Keera a look and couldn’t help but say, “Our little sister is indeed quite pretty, but she can’t really bewitch a man to this extent, can she?” 

Charles was also baffled. “If I were like that, Uncle Olsen would definitely break my legs!” 

13:24 

7/9 

411 Chapter 410 

Only Ellis couldn’t help but roll his eyes. 

That scheming Lewis sure knew how to pick his 

assistant. 

However, these words did elevate his little sister’s 

status, and he was quite pleased. 

Even Uncle Olsen’s mouth twitched. 

After a pause, the crowd awkwardly started talking. 

“Mr. Horton truly is a romantic.” 

“Miss Olsen is impressive too…” 

“We’ve indeed witnessed a match made in heaven 

tonight!” 

11 

Hearing such forced praise, Joseph’s daughter finally realized she had stirred trouble. She glanced at Victoria and immediately started slipping away quietly. 

Just as she was about to slip out of the banquet hall, a chilly voice suddenly asked, “Where do you think 

you’re going?” 

13:24 

89 

412 Chapter 411 

Joseph’s daughter whipped around, only to see James standing menacingly behind her.” 

As this voice rang out, everyone else quickly turned 

their attention toward the direction of the sound. 

Joseph’s daughter swallowed hard. “I, I’m leaving…” 

When James heard this, he began to laugh. 

His laugh was exactly like his older brother’s, with a bit of maliciousness and roguishness that made onlookers feel unnerved and uneasy. 

Joseph’s daughter couldn’t help but shiver. “What, what are you going to do?” 

James suddenly pointed at Howard and his mother and asked, “You told them to come here, didn’t you? If you’re leaving, why not take them with you?” 

Upon hearing this, Joseph immediately looked angrily at his daughter. 

His daughter quickly waved her hands. “It wasn’t me, it 

wasn’t …” 

< 

412 Chapter 411 

“Still trying to deny it?” 

James sneered, and with a wave of his hand, a hotel 

staff member approached, holding a camera that 

showed a video. 

In the video, Joseph’s daughter handed a sum of money to a staff member. 

Then the staff member snuck Howard and his mother, who didn’t have an invitation, into the venue through 

the service entrance… 

After seeing the video, Joseph’s daughter was stunned, 

“That …” 

“I 

She swiftly turned her head, looking at Victoria. “It was you! It was you who told me to do that! I was just helping you!” 

Victoria hadn’t expected James to have a recording, and upon hearing this, she immediately waved her hands, “What are you talking about? When did I ever ask you to do such things?” 

Joseph’s daughter was baffled. 

Victoria then said, “You didn’t like Keera, and what does that have to do with me? Besides, this is the 

00.48 

2/0 

412 Chapter 411 

Olsen family’s banquet. How could I possibly let you bring people in and disgrace my family?” 

Joseph’s daughter was bewildered. 

She stared at Victoria in disbelief. “You, you …” 

Victoria then looked to James and Uncle Olsen. “Uncle, it really wasn’t me! She’s slandering me! There might have been some friction between Keera and me, but I knew Keera was your daughter long ago, so how could I do such a thing? The Olsen family raised me. How could I be so ungrateful and treacherous?!” 

Uncle Olsen chuckled coldly 

Victoria was indeed cautious in her actions and had 

left no trace behind. 

Therefore, they only had evidence of Joseph’s daughter committing the misdeed, but none of Victoria’s … 

Without evidence, punishing Victoria in front of everyone would make Keira the center of gossip. 

It would look as if the Olsen family’s own daughter could not tolerate an adopted daughter and wanted to chase the latter away. 

3/9 

412 Chapter 411 

Uncle Olsen then cast his eyes downward, remaining 

silent. 

He thought, “If you commit enough misdeeds, you’ll eventually show your true colors.” 

James also furrowed his brow and said, “Victoria, you don’t need to explain. I believe you! But this woman has plotted against the Olsen family in such a manner. What exactly does she take the Olsen family for? Joseph, is my uncle no longer able to control the 

family, or do you think the seven of us can’t take any 

action?” 

At this moment, Joseph’s face was pale with fright. He wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead. 

realizing he’d been massively let down by his daughter 

this time!! 

Just as his daughter was about to speak, Joseph rushed in front of her and slapped her face hard. “Shut your mouth!!” 

The slap was forcefully delivered, even stronger than before. 

With the slap, blood oozed from the girl’s mouth, and she spat out two front teeth.

Joseph immediately looked at Uncle Olsen with his 

head bowed in a respectful manner. “Mr. Olsen, my daughter has been spoiled, and I don’t think she’s suitable for staying in the country anymore. I’ll arrange for her to go abroad immediately, so she can gain some experience and learn how treacherous the world can 

be!” 

Uncle Olsen merely touched the ring on his finger, his voice calm. “Her mistake is just an unintentional slip, nothing but a bit of squabbling really, but you’re right. After all, she has lived too comfortably since 

childhood. It’s time for her to go abroad and endure 

some hardship.” 

The conversation had reached this point when Uncle Olsen suddenly said, “I think GMR is a good choice. I like the people and custom there. Let her go there to study, and maybe that’ll change her arrogant character. What do you think?” 

Joseph’s pupils shrank. 

There was civil unrest in GMR at the moment, with news of shootings happening every day. The people of that country were desperately trying to flee, so why would anyone send their child there? 

08.48 

5/9 

< 

412 Chapter 411 

But he knew it was Uncle Olsen’s punishment for his 

daughter! 

Swallowing hard, Joseph turned to glance at his daughter before setting his mind and saying firmly, “You’re right. I’ll arrange it immediately.” 

Uncle Olsen smiled. “There might be some difficulties. with the visa, but don’t worry, I’ll have someone take care of it for you.” 

There was no turning back now. 

Joseph suddenly felt that his decisive action had been the right choice, for if he had dared to speak a word on behalf of his daughter, Uncle Olsen might have sent his entire family over! 

He nodded immediately. “That would be great, thank you very much.” 

C 

“There’s no trouble at all. You’ve been my subordinate for a long time, and I ought to help you out with this,” Uncle Olsen said, still smiling. 

Continuing to smile, Uncle Olsen added, “You should take your daughter home to pack her bags.” 

Joseph nodded and quickly left with his daughter in

tow. 

Only then did Uncle Olsen casually turn his gaze to Howard and his mother. He sighed and said in a deep voice, “The two of you… Since you are Amy’s father and grandmother, and I’m her grandfather on the mother’s side, we’re all one family. Someone will take you away and make sure you’re taken care of!” 

The last few words were spoken very slowly and 

carried a deadly seriousness. 

Howard felt it, and suddenly felt warmth in his pants; he had been scared to the point of wetting himself. 

His foolish mother still couldn’t comprehend the 

situation and smiled. “Hey, that’s great! I was saying, 

Howard and Keera have a child between them, so 

we’re definitely a family…” 

Howard’s legs went weak and was dragged away, while his mother trotted off happily toward what she thought would be a “wonderful life.” 

Uncle Olsen then waved his hand again. “Alright, no more spectacles for everyone to laugh at. Let’s continue! Come, let’s raise a glass for my daughter’s 

return!” 

09:48

412 Chapter 411 

After that, no one in the room dared to speak ill of 

Keira. 

Keira looked around at everyone, then couldn’t help but glance sideways at Uncle Olsen. 

No wonder Lewis respected him so much; this man easily controlled the fates of several people with just a few words. 

The rest part of the banquet went smoothly, with everyone treating Keira with utmost respect until the guests left one by one after the banquet ended. 

It was only then that James approached Keira. “Sister, will you ride with me?” 

Keira coughed lightly. “I’m not staying at the Olsen house. I’m going back to the South residence.” 

James was startled. “Why? Are you still mad at me? Isn’t it enough that I’ve apologized? Maybe I should let you hit me? I won’t hit back!” 

Keira couldn’t help but laugh. “No, it’s just that Amy 

gets anxious around strangers. I’m afraid she won’t like changing her surroundings. Besides…” 

She lowered her gaze. “I still have things to do.”

“Is it about the Freeman Sect? I’ll take you to see the 

Sect Leader tomorrow then!” 

“Sure.” 

Meanwhile, Ellis turned to Mary, speaking softly, “Aren’t you going home tonight?” 

With her head bowed, Mary replied quietly, “Let’s wait 

until we reach three months. Then we’ll decide.” 

Ellis was silent for a while before asking, “How much longer?” 

“About three or four days.” 

Mary slowly looked up at him. “Ellis, let’s meet at the hospital in four days.”

Ellis chuckled bitterly when he heard what she said. 

He just couldn’t understand why Mary was so persistent about having this amniocentesis done. 

He had already gone through three exams and all 

1 

showed azoospermia; it was impossible for him to have 

children… 

When Keira was about to leave, Uncle Olsen asked all 

seven brothers to accompany her and Mary to the car. 

On the way to the parking lot. 

Charles couldn’t help but lean in. “Little sister, do you want to know what happened to Howard and his 

mother?” 

Keira couldn’t help but glance at him. 

Charles was the youngest son. 

He had been calling her “little sister” before, and Keira didn’t correct him, but now.. 

Keira coughed. “How old are you?” 

Charles said, Little sister, I’m about to celebrate my 

09:48 

1/10 

< 

413 Chapter 412 

21st birthday soon. I’m studying at Tsipin University.” 

Tsipin University is the top-ranked institution in the country, located in Clance. 

These children of wealthy families might be able to spend money to attend famous overseas universities, but Tsipin University wasn’t so easy to get into. 

Charles getting into Tsipin University meant he was truly a scholarly type. 

Keira couldn’t help but twitch her lips. “I’m about to 

turn 23 years old.” 

The rather naive Charles still hadn’t realized the 

problem. “Oh, and then? Little sister, do you want a birthday present?” 

Keira was speechless. 

She twitched her lips. “My point is, you should be calling me ‘big sister”.” 

Charles fell silent. 

He was stunned!! 

Keira then looked toward the Olsen family’s sixth son. “How old are you?” 

09:48 

2/10 

413 Chapter 412 

He smiled and said. “I’m older than you, I’m 23 years 

and one month old!” 

Keira said, “So I have six older brothers and one 

younger brother.” 

Charles couldn’t believe it. 

He felt like crying, as he had thought the family finally had a younger sister, but it turned out this “younger sister” was actually an older cousin!! 

He wasn’t happy! 

However, this didn’t affect his affection toward Keira, as he leaned in close again. “Then, dear big little sister, do you know what happened to Howard and his 

mother?” 

Keira thought, “What’s with this mess of a title?” 

But facing someone with a face similar to the faces of Ellis and James, full of innocence and the clear-eyed look characteristic of university students… 

He looked quite endearing. 

She asked, “What happened to them?” 

Charles chuckled. “Just now I saw Uncle Olsen 

00:48 

3/10 

413 Chapter 412 

instructing the bodyguards. They sent them off to a pyramid scheme organization, which specializes in human trafficking, to some countries to the east. Their fate is to become trafficked people!” 

Keira didn’t see that coming. 

She couldn’t help but twitch her lips. “Wait, does our family even deal in that kind of business?” 

James immediately explained. “Of course not. You mustn’t have any misunderstandings about our family! Our business is quite diverse, so we have those kinds. of connections. Everything else is legal and compliant.” 

Keira then nodded in relief. 

After all, this was Crera! 

But she didn’t notice that, after James finished talking about being legal and compliant, Ellis glanced at him and immediately showed a hint of a sneer. 

Feeling the ridicule from his older brother, James coughed and covered up his moment of unease. 

As they chatted, they arrived at the parking lot. 

The car that Keera drove in Clance was a black Chery, a domestic brand, fitting for the Keera’s style and 

09:48 

4/10 

< 

413 Chapter 412 

economic status. 

Charles noticed the car and immediately said. “Cousin sister, let me give you a better car! Isn’t it 

inappropriate for you to drive this old thing?” 

Keira, however, smiled. “I’m used to it; it’s pretty good.” 

Now, this car had already been sent for modifications by Lewis. 

The engine had been replaced, the windows had been changed to bulletproof glass, and even the metal shell had been replaced with composite materials used for manufacturing airplanes. 

All of this was because Lewis feared she might encounter some crisis again… 

It just looked unassuming on the outside, but in reality, whether it was about driving performance or safety, it was much stronger than a regular car. 

Charles wanted to say something more, but James lowered his voice and said, “Sister, although Mr. Horton made his stance clear today, you also can’t go too far. This gigolo, although he looks rather good, you should also consider Mr. Horton. That kind of person is 

a real talent. Your gigolo is a college graduate who’s 

09:48 

5/10 

( 

413 Chapter 412 

interested only in your money. Don’t be deceived!” 

Keira was speechless. 

Where on earth did Lewis resemble a fresh college 

graduate?! 

He was twenty-eight years old, okay?!! 

She twitched the corner of her mouth and nodded. 

Finally, after bidding farewell to her seven brothers, she got into the car with Mary. 

Keira sat in the passenger seat. 

Mary went to sit in the back seat, without giving Ellis another glance. 

The car started moving quickly. 

Mary sighed silently, not wanting the trouble of seeing Ellis to disturb Keira’s happiness, so she found a topic 

and said, “Keera, what’s the deal with Lewis anyway? Are you really going to marry that second-hand old 

man?” 

Keira didn’t know what to say. 

She silently glanced at Lewis. 

She saw the man’s gaze fixed straight ahead, a sharp

glint flashing in his deep eyes, and she immediately 

coughed once, turning to Mary. 

“Well, actually, Lewis is quite nice.” 

Mary frowned. “He’s quite nice with a family background beyond reproach, but you still have to choose between the gigolo and Lewis, right?” 

Upon hearing this, Lewis immediately glanced at Keira with the corner of his eye. 

He saw her blink and reply slowly, “Only children make choices. Adults, like me, want them all!” 

Mary was shocked. 

The corners of Lewis’s lips couldn’t help but curl up. 

He suddenly remembered when he first met Keira, 

after she had picked up his grandmother, she had called him saying, “Your elder is in my hands…” 

At the time, he thought this girl was really cheeky! 

Now, she finally regained some of her past playful charm and didn’t look so burdened anymore. 

Meanwhile, the Olsen family members had already 

09:48 

7/10 

< 

413 Chapter 412 

returned home. 

James, with his head down, was somewhat unhappy, “Uncle Olsen, Ellis, do you think Keera refuses to move back home because she holds a grudge against me?” 

Ellis didn’t even bother to speak to his younger 

brother. 

Uncle Olsen didn’t pay him any attention, either. 

It was Charles who comforted him. “I think it’s alright. When she spoke to you, there was a smile in her eyes.” 

“Really?” James’s eyes lit up, but soon he became puzzled again. “Then why does she refuse to come 

back home? Is there someone she dislikes in this 

house?” 

Those words stunned everyone briefly, and then their gazes turned in unison to Victoria. 

Victoria was speechless. 

Feeling like a lamb among tigers under the gaze of her seven brothers, she quickly said, “I did have misunderstandings with Keera before knowing her identity, but we’ve already made up…” 

“Is that so?” James stroked his chin, “Has she forgiven 

09:48 

A/10 

413 Chapter 412 

you then?” 

Victoria didn’t know what to say. 

She twitched the corner of her mouth and lowered her head, her eyes flashing with resentment. 

The seven brothers were definitely doing this on 

purpose! 

They were pushing her to apologize to Keera. 

She sighed and suddenly said, “It’s my fault. If it’s because of me that she doesn’t want to return home, then perhaps I should move out first…” 

She put on a tearful expression and slowly lifted her 

head. 

She was expecting to face pleas and persuasion, but what she encountered was…

“I think it’s a good idea.”

James answered seriously. 

Victoria was dumbfounded. 

She subconsciously looked toward her uncle, only to hear Uncle Olsen say, “I remember you own properties under your name, right?” 

Victoria was shocked! 

She felt like she’d played herself! 

She hurriedly started to speak, “No, Uncle, I…” 

“I have one, you can stay at my place for the time being!” 

James interrupted her. 

Victoria was speechless. 

It was the first time she felt the pain that the simple-minded man could bring! 

She bit her lip, about to say something when James patted her shoulder. “Even though you are our foster

sister, you don’t have to feel embarrassed. After all, we 

grew up together. My house is your house, so feel free to stay as long as you like!” 

Then he turned, eyes shining toward Uncle Olsen. “Uncle, shall I tell Keera tomorrow that Victoria has 

left so she can move back in?” 

Uncle Olsen said, “…you go ahead.” 

He was too tired to deal with this foolish nephew and simply entered the house, glancing back at Victoria before he entered. “Ask Carmen to help you pack your 

bags.”

He clearly wanted to drive her away overnight! 

Victoria took a deep breath, almost losing her balance. 

She clenched her teeth tightly, nodding after a while. “Okay, Uncle.” 

Clenching her fists, she slowly entered her own room and started packing her belongings. Looking around the room she had lived in for over twenty years, her eyes were filled with resentment. 

Why? 

Why should she be driven out just because that

pampered girl from the Olsen family returned? 

What did the Olsen family think of her? 

Tears began to gather in Victoria’s eyes as she spitefully took in everything around her. 

She, Victoria, would surely return one day! 

And she would return gloriously!! 

The car soon arrived at the South family’s home. 

Just as Keera entered, she saw Rebecca sitting in the living room, arguing with Samuel. 

Samuel taunted her sarcastically, “Well, if it isn’t Miss Allen herself. Didn’t you refuse to cooperate with my boss a while back? What brings you to our doorstep now? Aren’t you worried about sullying your precious feet in my boss’s humble abode?” 

Rebecca hung her head in the face of his sarcasm. “I… I didn’t mean to before…” 

“That still wasn’t polite to my boss. I heard you even wanted my boss to leave Mary’s wedding, threatening her by suicide? Miss Allen, the doors to the Allen

family are truly hard to enter!” 

Rebecca’s face flushed red, and she stood up abruptly, bowing her head to Samuel. 

That action took Samuel by surprise. 

He immediately sprung up from the sofa. “What are you doing?” 

Rebecca’s eyes were slightly red as she replied, “I failed to recognize Miss Keira before, I’m sorry!” 

Samuel was dumbfounded. 

He became uncomfortable immediately, even stuttering in his reply. “It’s okay, it doesn’t matter. I just have a sharp tongue, don’t take it to heart…” 

Rebecca nodded. “When you came to my house before, I even scolded you. I owe you an apology, I’m sorry.” 

“You’re welcome, really, it’s nothing. Besides, you scold pretty nicely, so feel free to do so more often. It’s alright.” 

Rebecca was confused. 

Samuel scratched his head.

As a veteran in the field of romance, this was the first 

time he had encountered someone so fixated on the 

truth, and he found himself at a loss. 

Fortunately, at that moment, Keira and the others 

returned. 

He immediately felt as if he had been released and 

rushed to Keira. “Boss, this is the collaboration contract with the Allen family. I’ve brought it to you. If 

there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now!” 

Before leaving, he glanced back at Rebecca. 

Rebecca was staring at him. Seeing him turn around, she bowed again. 

Samuel was so frightened that he tumbled and 

scrambled out the door… 

Keira didn’t know what to say. 

When Lewis saw Rebecca, his brow immediately 

furrowed. 

Didn’t she go home a couple of days ago? Why was she back again? 

Suspicious, he eyed Keira warily. Surely these three 

women weren’t planning to stav un all night talking 

09:49

414 Chapter 413 

again? 

Luckily, Mary was pregnant and not suited for staying up late… 

Rebecca was a bit nervous. “I heard that Austin Gill has been trying to cause trouble for you. The whole of Clance is buzzing with talk that he beat you up… How was the family reunion feast today?” 

The feast that night didn’t actually invite people from the five major families but just the Olsen family’s own 

members. 

After all, Keira wanted to keep a low profile. 

Keira assured her that everything went smoothly, and Rebecca breathed a sigh of relief. She then continued. 

“About Austin, it’s not really an issue. But after this ruckus, it might be difficult for you to cooperate with the Gill family. 

Although Rebecca didn’t understand why Keira would want to have relationships with all five major families, she still tried her best to help gather information. 

Keira pressed her lips together. 

Without mentioning how Jackson constantly bullied 

09:49

414 Chapter 413 

Keera back at the Freeman Sect, just the rumors Austin spread about Mary had tarnished her reputation. That grudge was set. 

However… 

“There’s always a way out. Let’s not talk about the Gill family for now. My primary goal is to join the Freeman Sect first!” 

After saying that, Keira looked at Rebecca, “If I were James’s sister, do you think James could get me into 

the Freeman Sect?” 

Rebecca thought for a moment and nodded, “There shouldn’t be a problem. You might not recognize James’s significance to the Freeman Sect.” 

Since her return, Rebecca had already begun to gather information for her. “As a second senior brother, James 

is in love with Kate Freeman, the daughter of the Freeman Sect Leader, and they’re engaged. The Olsen family and the Freeman family had long agreed that the first two children they bear would carry the Freeman surname. So, unless that mysterious eldest 

senior sister marries into the Freeman family, the position of the Sect Leader will likely fall to James. The 

09:40 

7/10 

414 Chapter 413 

Sect Leader must have the surname Freeman, and 

that’s a fundamental rule of the Freeman Sect.” 

Keira nodded. 

Rebecca added. “So, as a second senior brother, James has a lot of say in the Freeman Sect. At the very least, he can let you become a direct disciple of his Master, which would make you a legitimate member of their lineage.” 

Keira was relieved to hear this. 

Time quickly moved to the next day. 

Keira and James agreed on a time to meet at the entrance of the Freeman Sect. 

James saw that it was still Lewis who had brought her over and immediately hesitated, ultimately not saying anything, but leading Keira inside while speaking, “Victoria has moved out to live on her own. When are you moving back in?” 

Seeing his enthusiasm, Keira immediately said, “Maybe 

in a while.” 

James nodded, then smiled and said, “I called my Master yesterday, and he agreed. He even plans to 

09:49 

8/10 

414 Chapter 413 

have the Sect Leader witness your discipleship 

ceremony today…” 

Keira was taken aback. “Isn’t this hasty? The discipleship ceremony is today?” 

“Yeah, the Master is just taking you as a named disciple…” James spoke as they walked. “The rest of us had very formal ceremonies except for our eldest 

senior sister, who was taken as a disciple by the Sect Leader outside the sect.” 

James said, “Sister, you’ve been in the outer sect for so many years, and it might be too late for you to practice martial arts. So, there’s no need to hurry after becoming a disciple. I’ll help you train at a steady pa After all, not everyone is like our eldest senior sister, 

who began training at the age of fifteen and now has an iron-clad body. I heard the Sect Leader say that I can’t even last thirty moves against her, she’s so formidable… 

“It’s about time for the eldest senior sister to return, isn’t it? Why haven’t we heard anything? When we see the Sect Leader, I’m going to ask him…” 

09:49 

9/10 

415 Chapter 414 

“By the way, sis, what was going on during the last martial arts competition? How did you manage to dodge my three moves? I underestimated you, though. I’ll properly teach you how to fight one of these days and test your skills again… 

“Oh, right, my fiancée’s name is Kate, and I’ve arranged to meet her today-once you guys meet, we’ll all be family! 

“I’m not marrying into her family, don’t get it twisted. The Olsen family couldn’t possibly resort to that. I just don’t have a choice since the Freeman Sect is lacking successors, alas! 

“Well, it’s not exactly a lack of successors. Kate does have many brothers and sisters, but not many of them are really up to par in martial arts. Nowadays, people who can endure hardship and work hard are scarce… Like me, who was sent here by my third uncle at the age of three and who diligently practiced ever since… very few indeed… 

“But I’ve heard that our eldest senior sister started 

11.00 

C 

415 Chapter 414 

practicing martial arts at fifteen and only trains for 

two hours a day, sometimes even less… She’s really amazing! 

Keira realized that James was an absolute chatterbox. 

Ever since meeting her, the guy hadn’t stopped yapping. 

As they entered the Freeman Sect and were about to head for the backyard, they spotted a slender girl standing in the resting area for Outer Sect Disciples. Her eyes lit up upon seeing Keira, and she immediately rushed over, grabbing Keira’s arm. 

Keira was startled. 

The girl gestured with her hands and then, realizing something, took out a notebook and started writing furiously. After quickly jotting down a few words, she handed it to her. 

Keira read the note, where the girl’s handwriting was neat and tidy. It read, “Hello, I am Nara, Matias’s sister. My brother was beaten by Jackson and is currently bedridden. He asked me to warn you to be careful of 

Jackson’s retaliation” 

11:00 

O

415 Chapter 414 

Keira blinked in surprise, then looked again at the girl in front of her. 

She was very pretty, like a delicate white flower. Was 

she mute? 

Keira pursed her lips, and picked up the paper and pen to write something, but the girl snatched them away and waved her hand. Then she pointed to her own ear 

to indicate she could hear. 

Keira said, “I see. Has your brother been to the hospital? Is it serious?” 

The girl started writing again. “He’s been treated. It’s not severe, just a broken leg; he’ll need to rest in bed for a month.” 

Keira then asked, “Do you have enough money for the medical expenses?” 

The girl immediately nodded and then gestured with her hand, indicating she was about to leave. 

But Keira was somewhat concerned and stopped her. “Where do you live? I’ll come visit Matias when I have 

time.” 

Matias had always defended her sister Keera, 

11:00 

O

Г 

415 Chapter 414 

provoking Jackson and getting beaten because of that. She had a responsibility to treat him well. 

The girl took the paper and pen, left her an address, tore off the note, and handed it to Keira. Then she 

smiled sweetly at Keira and ran off. 

The girl wasn’t the type to take your breath away at first glance, but her smile and her dimples were incredibly sweet. 

Keira watched her leave, shaking her head slightly. 

She slipped the address into her pocket, then turned to James, about to say something, when a sharp cry suddenly came from the side. “Keera!” 

Keira turned around to see a spunky-looking girl striding toward her and angrily declaring. “Come on, let’s have a fight!” 

Keira was confused.

Caught off guard, she was about to ask who the girl was when she heard James say, “Kate? Your timing is perfect! Let me introd-” 

Before he could finish, Jackson appeared. “Senior Sister Kate, did you see that? I told you the Second 

11.00

415 Chapter 414 

Senior Brother had changed. He’s been bewitched by this Outer Sect Disciple called Keera, and Keera has clung to him, wielding power and bullying us in the Outer Sect! You must stand up for us!” 

With these words, Kate stared at James, and then her eyes reddened. “You told me you only loved me!” 

James said, “No, listen, I want to introduce her to you, 

she’s…” 

“I don’t care!” Kate immediately looked at Keera, “We are all martial artists, so let’s settle this the martial artist’s way! Today, you and I will have a match. Whoever wins gets James!” 

Her eyes were red, and she looked somewhat hurt. 

Keira was speechless. 

“Seriously, people are actually fighting over my silly and naive third brother?” 

She had originally thought that James was reaching above his station by dating the daughter of the Freeman Sect, but it seemed they really were a match! 

Kate was conned with just a few words… 

Was the standard for raising children in the Freeman 

11:00

415 Chapter 414 

Sect a bit too low… 

She tugged at the corner of her mouth, wanting to explain something, but Kate had already dropped her whip and untied the bandage on her leg. “You’re an Outer Sect Disciple, and your martial arts skills are not as good as mine, so I’ll let you have three moves, and I promise not to use weapons. You can choose any weapon that suits you, so I’m not bullying you! Let’s compete fairly and justly!” 

Keira was dumbfounded. 

She waved her hand, “I’m…” 

“Take this!” 

Kate didn’t wait for her to finish; being impulsive and impatient, she had already swung her fist at her. 

Keira was taken aback. 

She took a discreet step back and before she could strike back, James had already rushed up and grabbed 

Kate’s fist. 

Kate was stunned. 

Jackson shouted, “Kate, do you see that? Even in front of you, he’s defending Keera Do you really believe

there’s nothing between them?” 

Kate was even more upset, and tears began to fall. “James, you actually fought with me for her!” 

James panicked and quickly reached out with his other hand to wipe her tears, “No, she’s my…” 

“Get out of my way! I want to settle this with her! If I win, you come back to me!” 

Kate pushed him away and once again swung her fists 

toward Keira. 

Jackson watched the drama unfold, arms crossed. “Kate, you must teach this Keera a lesson. You have no idea; she flirts with men every day at the Freeman Sect, using her pretty face to bewitch James to the point he dares to lift a hand against you! Teach her a 

lesson!” 

Upon hearing this, Kate suddenly turned around and picked up the whip on the ground. 

Keira frowned. 

Jackson immediately laughed. “Right, pick up the whip and beat her! There’s no need to be merciful to this kind of person!” 

11:00

O

But as soon as these words fell, the whip made a crisp sound in the air, and then viciously landed on Jackson! 

Jackson was shocked 

“Ouch!” 

Jackson hopped in pain. 

Kate stared at him. “No matter what the relationship between Keera and James is, it takes two to tango, and I won’t allow you to speak about a woman like that!” 

After that, she turned to look at Keira, her eyes filling with tears again. 

Keira said, “Don’t get excited. I’m his sister.”

Kate was stunned, with tears still hovering at the brink of falling, she was suddenly petrified. 

She swallowed and then looked toward James. 

James immediately nodded. “Didn’t I tell you yesterday that Uncle Olsen has a daughter? It’s her, my little 

sister!” 

Kate was dumbfounded. 

She became completely petrified. 

Then, she looked again at Keira and suddenly blurted out, “That’s impossible. I don’t believe you!” 

James grew anxious and was about to explain further when he heard Kate saying, “How can such a robust man like you have a sister who is so devastatingly beautiful? She’s so stunning that she looks like she 

comes from another world!” 

James was speechless. 

Keira didn’t know what to say.

Keira was slightly taken aback, then noticed Kate 

sneaking a peep at her, her lively eyes showing a hint of slyness and appeasement, and Keira immediately understood. 

Kate was trying to make up for her behavior just now. 

Keira couldn’t help but laugh. “I really am his sister.” 

Kate said, “Then there must have been a genetic 

mutation in James.” 

She promptly put away her whip and rushed over to Keira, holding Keira’s arm. “Keera, right? Just now, I felt threatened because you’re so beautiful. You won’t be mad at me, will you?” 

There was nothing to be mad about! 

Moreover, Kate had been very measured in her actions earlier while in a fit of anger, knowing Keira was an Outer Sect Disciple, and she had let a lot of things slide. Even when Jackson was scolding Keira, Kate had 

taken Keira’s side, saying something about it took two 

to tango, 

With her current playful and cute demeanor, Keira found it impossible to feel offended! 

O

416 Chapter 415 

She smiled and said, “Sister-in-law, nice to meet you.” 

The term “sister-in-law” brought a blush to Kate’s cheeks. She shyly turned her head, then felt around her waist, and finally pulled out a dagger and handed it to Keira. “Sister, it’s the first time we met; this is a gift for you!” 

Keira accepted the dagger. “Thank you.” 

James couldn’t help but cry out, “Kate, isn’t that the dagger Master gave you? It’s extremely sharp! I’ve been envious of it for years, and you wouldn’t give it to me, but you gave it to my sister!” 

Kate glared at him. “Your robust physique suits a club just fine. Keera looks so delicate, and a dagger for self-defense suits her perfectly. Why are you competing with her?” 

James said in a sulk, “…Alright.” 

The three of them opened up a conversation when suddenly, they heard Jackson exclaim, “Keera, you, you’re the daughter that Uncle Olsen acknowledged and took home yesterday?” 

The family reunion the day before wasn’t grand, having 

only invited relatives from the Olgan family and 

11:00

416 Chapter 415 

hadn’t been heavily publicized. 

However, Lewis’s betrothal gifts and the long speech Tom gave at the reunion had already become the talk of the town in Clance. 

Jackson had come to the Freeman Sect early in the morning intending to give Keera trouble, so he hadn’t heard who the daughter was, only knowing that such a person existed. 

It was only upon hearing their conversation that he became aware of it. 

He hadn’t expected this woman to be Uncle Olsen’s daughter! 

No wonder she dared to barge into their home and h 

Austin! 

Austin was the third son of the Direct Lineage of the Gill family and the favorite youngest son of the Family 

Head’s wife!!! 

Jackson started to panic. 

Upon hearing this, James immediately looked at him, “That’s right, remember this, Keera is the eldest legitimate daughter of our Olsen family. If you dare to

bully her again, just you wait!” 

After that, he grabbed Kate’s hand. “Kate, let’s go find the Sect Leader. He agreed to take my little sister as a nominal disciple!” 

Kate’s eyes shone with excitement. “That means she’ll be my junior sister then! Keera, let’s go!” 

Kate took Keira’s hand. 

Seeing this, James couldn’t help feeling a bit jealous. “Hey, your fiancé is right here!” 

“Go away. You big, rough, stinky man. How can you compare to a pretty girl?!” 

Kate leaned on Keira. 

If it weren’t for the fact that Kate had fought desperately for James just a moment ago, Keira might have suspected that Kate didn’t like James at all. 

Looking at James, however, it seemed he was used to 

He even scratched his head and explained, “Kate likes pretty girls.” 

He didn’t mean Kate was sexually attracted to women.

It was merely an appreciation of beauty. 

Keira expressed her understanding, and Kate sighed. “Ever since I was little, I’ve been surrounded by men. Practicing martial arts every day made them so tough and rigid, so I like the sweet fragrance of girls.” 

After that, she added, “Keera, you’re so soft. I really like you.” 

Then she pinched Keira’s arm. 

Keira didn’t know what to say. 

James chimed in. “That’s because Keera doesn’t practice martial arts often. If she practiced more, her muscles would become harder. You don’t believe me? When our senior sister comes, try pinching her arm.” 

Kate immediately pursed her lips. “I still like Keera more; she’s definitely sweeter. I’m sure I’ll like her 

more.” 

James was dumbfounded. 

He got anxious. “Kate, although Keera is my sister, and I agree with you, the senior sister is sacred and untouchable! You don’t need to say such things aloud!” 

Kate huffed and turned to Keira. “Keera. don’t listen to 

11:00 

O 

416 Chapter 415 

him. He’s a huge fan of our senior sister, bringing her up every day. If you didn’t know better, you’d think he 

has a crush on her!” 

James flashed a grin. “If I didn’t have you, it might indeed be possible, but here you are. So now, my admiration for the senior sister can only be pure 

admiration.” 

Kate said, “Oh my, that’s really too bad, isn’t it? Did I ruin your perfect match?” 

James immediately waved his hands. “Not at all, not at 

all. Our senior sister is sacred and must not be 

disrespected. Haven’t I just told you? Don’t joke about this anymore!” 

Kate pouted but stopped joking. She simply said, “Alright, alright, I get it. I also greatly admire the senio sister, okay?” 

Keira was amazed by the way the two interacted. 

James might seem like a simpleton who listened to everything Kate said, but every time he said something, Kate respected it. 

For example, she would listen to him regarding 

principles like not joking about the senior sister.

How interesting. 

As they talked, they arrived at the small courtyard where Chris Freeman, Kate’s father, lived. He was also James’s Master and the Sect Leader’s second brother. 

Chris was second in rank in the Freeman family, second when practicing martial arts, second in establishing his own Sect, and even had a disciple who was the second senior brother of the Freeman Sect. 

His life seemed destined to be associated with the 

number two. 

He was waiting for them in the room. 

Today, to show his welcome for his new disciple, he had put on a set of new practice clothes; a white, sho martial arts jacket tucked neatly into his waistband, making him look very tidy and smart. 

As they entered, his gaze fell on Keira, and then he paused slightly.

Keira sized up the current second-greatest expert of 

the Freeman Sect as soon as she entered. 

Chris sat on the meditation cushion, appearing quite youthful; with a daughter at Kate’s age, he should be nearing fifty, but he seemed to be only in his thirties. 

Exercise could indeed make one look younger. 

She followed James and Kate through the door and immediately noticed Chris’s gaze bypassing the other two and falling upon her. 

Then, Chris’s eyes slightly lit up! 

Originally, when James suggested his sister become a nominal disciple, Chris was rather reluctant. He wasn as prestigious as the Sect Leader, who had accepted only one disciple, 

It was clear that the number of disciples Chris had could be counted on one hand. 

Each disciple’s spot was very important, wasn’t it? 

But who could ignore that James was his favorite senior disciple? And he had heard this sister was Uncle 

11:00

Olsen’s daughter… Uncle Olsen even called him last night! 

+27 

So, to show respect to the Olsen family, he would have to accept this disciple. 

It was initially somewhat forced, and he didn’t understand why a highborn lady would want to learn martial arts; but when he saw Keira’s steps as she entered, he straightened up a little. 

They were all martial practitioners, with light footsteps. 

However, this fact was usually overlooked, as ordinary people had heavier footsteps when they walked. 

At this moment, the footsteps of James and Kate we light, yet he didn’t hear a third set of heavy footsteps 

He couldn’t help but glance at the three people’s feet and saw Keira walking with grace, reminiscent of hist elder brother. 

She was like a high-level master hiding her true capabilities. 

This piqued Chris’s interest; he examined Keira’s face, then smiled, “I’ve heard you’re called Keera Olsen.

Have you spent all these years as an Outer Sect 

Disciple?” 

Keira nodded. 

Keera Olsen, it should be, then… 

If her sister acknowledges her ancestry, she should take the Olsen surname too, right? 

Chris then asked, “How long do you practice martial arts each day in the Outer Sect?” 

Keira thought for a moment. “One or two hours, I 

guess.” 

Chris frowned slightly, “That short?” 

“Yes, because I also have other matters to attend to,” 

Keira explained. 

Chris felt a twinge of disappointment, wondering if he had misjudged, and then remembered Keera seemed to have been pregnant and given birth in recent years. 

One of the challenges for women in martial arts was precisely that. 

When men attained martial prowess, their muscles and bones would no longer undergo changes.

But women experienced changes in their physique after childbirth; their bones would shift, altering their body constitution. 

Many female martial arts experts were formidable at first, but after having children, they couldn’t maintain their skill… 

Of course, there’s another scenario, where the woman had soft bones and no talent before childbirth, and then a genetic transformation occurred after giving birth. 

Chris had already inquired about Keera before she arrived. 

When she was younger, she visited Elder Grant for bone assessment several times but was never chosen! Even in Outer Sect practice, she wasn’t particularly famous; those who were good were well-known. 

But Keera had no such reputation. 

Could it be that her impressive physique had transformed after childbirth? 

At that moment, Chris wanted to test her martial arts level himself.

So, he immediately stood up from the meditation 

cushion. “Keera, come, let’s go outside and spar a bit.” 

As these words were spoken, James and Kate immediately stepped in front of Keira and then turned their gaze toward Chris. 

“Master, didn’t we agree that she would just be a nominal disciple? Let’s not spar, shall we?” 

“Dad! You don’t know your own strength! What if you 

hurt little sister?!” 

After saying that in unison, they exchanged glances and then looked toward Chris again. 

“Master, I think Kate is right!” 

“Dad, James is right!” 

Chris didn’t know what to say. 

He twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn’t help but say, “Do you two really trust me so little? I think Keera has a talent for martial arts, and by the look of her, she seems to have some foundation. I just can’t figure it out, which is why I want to test her a bit. Besides, how will I know how to teach her martial arts 

if I don’t test her first?”

James said, “For just a nominal disciple, do you need to take it so seriously?” 

“Exactly. James is right, if you train Keera until she’s all stiff and brawny, I won’t like to touch her anymore!” 

… 

Chris and James simultaneously turned to look at Kate, who immediately covered her mouth. 

How did she carelessly blurt out what was on her 

mind? 

Chris ignored the two of them and just looked at Keira. “Shall we go?” 

Keira nodded. “Okay.” 

If she was going to become an apprentice, then she would learn earnestly. 

However… 

She suddenly said, “Senior, there’s something I need to tell you. I’ve already had a master.” 

She had a master. 

Even if she were to take another master, the first one would still take precedence. 

21.00

417 Chapter 416 

Upon hearing this, Chris chuckled. “I know, you must have a master. However, that’s not a problem. Martial arts itself is one family. If your master comes and learns you’ve taken me as your master, he would only be delighted because no one could possibly rank higher than me. Oh, except for the Sect Leader.” 

James also said, “That’s right, who’s your master? After you’ve taken my master as yours, his status in the industry will surely rise along with the tide.” 

Keira said, “Well, I’ll tell him the next time I see him.” 

The key was that she didn’t even know her own 

master’s name! 

While chatting, the group arrived in the courtyard, where Chris stood in the center, tucked the hem of h robe into his waist, and then looked at Keira. 

Keira then assumed an attacking stance. 

This position was taught by her master and just happened to be the most basic stance in the Freeman Sect, something even the outer sect disciples would have learned, so no one noticed anything amiss. 

Chris smiled. “Young lady, when you attack me, use all 

vour atranath I want to see how for you’ve gotten ” 

11:00

O 

417 Chapter 416 

Keira nodded earnestly. “Okay.” 

James couldn’t help but say, “Master, please be gentle. She’s my only sister! Uncle Olsen only has this one. daughter!” 

Kate also expressed her concern. “Dad, isn’t it embarrassing for you to strike a woman? If you want to practice, I’ll spar with you. Don’t go after Keera!” 

Chris laughed. “What do you know? The Sect Leader will be coming for today’s apprentice ceremony. We still have ten minutes before the time I arranged with him. It’s better to spar a bit than to sit idly waiting for him.” 

After that, he beckoned to Keira. “Alright, come o 

Keira nodded. 

Since James’s master wanted to test her, and this wa the most formidable martial arts family in Crera, she would show her true skills! 

Thus, Keira put her whole strength into it and threw a punch directly at Chris! 

11:00 

O 

L 

418 Chapter 417 

This punch contained all of Keira’s strength. 

Seeing her swift attack, Chris immediately extended his palm, wanting to catch the punch and gauge its 

power. 

A smile was on his face as he met the punch. 

“Bang!” 

Keira’s fist collided with Chris’s palm. 

The next moment… 

His expression changed. 

This punch was so ferocious that it actually made him feel threatened. 

He instinctively used all his strength, but to his surprise, even then, he was still forced back one step, two steps… five steps! 

That… 

Chris was dumbfounded. 

He looked at his own palm, then raised his head to 

11:1 

18 

418 Chapter 417 

look at Keira, and his expression immediately became joyful. He took a step forward and said, “You…” 

Before he could finish, someone rushed in from outside. “Second Elder, something’s wrong!” 

Chris frowned and looked over. “What happened?” 

It was an Inner Sect Disciple, ranking fairly low. “People from the Gill family have come, and now they’re causing a fuss at the Disciplinary Hall, they’re saying, saying…” 

Chris asked, “Saying what?” 

“They say the Freeman Sect allowed an Outer Sect 

Disciple to fight and brawl outside, and that they beat up Austin!” 

After that, the person glanced at Keira. 

Chris didn’t understand what was going on and immediately asked. “Austin? That Gill family’s third young master who only knows how to idle around? If it was an Outer Sect Disciple that beat him, then just deal with it according to the sect’s rules. What’s so bad about that?” 

The disciple gave a wry smile and looked at James and 

210 

418 Chapter 417 

Keira. “But, the person who beat him up was Keera!” 

“What?” 

Chris now understood and looked at Keira. “It was you 

who beat him?” 

Keira nodded. “Yes, I did.” 

It was about Mary’s incident, where he himself was spreading rumors outside. If she didn’t drag him out and deal with it at its root, the rumors outside would 

never cease. 

Austin also had a vicious streak, and no matter how Keira beat him, he wouldn’t yield. 

Therefore, her attack was a bit more severe. 

It wasn’t until Lewis personally intervened, and it was unclear what he did, that Austin finally gave in and was willing to admit his mistake. 

Now, why were they making trouble again? 

Keira’s face darkened. “He slandered my friend Mary… who now, to reckon, is also my sister-in-law, 

practically family. The Freeman Sect’s rules don’t stipulate that you can’t fight back when bullied by outsiders, do they?” 

O 

30 

418 Chapter 417 

This statement made Chris chuckle wryly. He nodded. “Right, there isn’t such a rule.” 

Keira looked at him. “Being bullied doesn’t just refer to physical abuse, it also includes being the subject of 

dirty rumors and such. The things he did a few days ago are known throughout Clance, and the files on the internet are still there. His phone contains all the evidence. So, was I wrong to beat him?” 

Chris didn’t know what to say. 

Keira’s arguments were clear and correct. 

But the problem was… 

Chris sighed, “If it were an outsider, a beating by a Freeman Sect disciple wouldn’t be an issue, but you might not know that he’s the nominal disciple of my fifth junior brother!” 

Upon hearing this, Keira was stunned, “What?” 

Chris couldn’t help but sigh. “In Clance, the four other families among the five major families send at least one person to learn martial arts at the Freeman Sect each generation. Out of respect for the ties between the five major families, we generally choose an outstanding 

ranrogantative from the other four 

11:15 

< 

418 Chapter 417 

families for a marriage alliance. Your third brother is a 

martial arts prodigy, and I took him as an Inner Sect Disciple, which is one type of person, while there’s another type. If a generation lacks a suitable candidate for martial arts training, to save their dignity, they would select someone from the Direct Lineage as a nominal disciple.” 

He sighed, “Austin is the nominal disciple of your fifth master uncle! The Freeman Sect has a rule that, except during martial arts competitions, one must not strike their elders. Being a nominal disciple of your fifth master uncle, he is your senior brother, so by hitting your senior brother, you are in the wrong.” 

Keira didn’t know what to say. 

Was it that casual to take on disciples in the Freeman 

Sect? 

James, who was standing nearby, couldn’t help but say, “Master, even if that’s the case, after today, my sister will be your nominal disciple as well, and her status will be higher than his, right? Then this matter should be resolved, shouldn’t it?” 

Chris shook his head. “The Freeman Sect is very strict 

59 

< 

418 Chapter 417 

about taking on disciples. All the disciples we have taken are on record. Even if I verbally agreed, it’s not yet on record, so she’s not considered an Inner Sect Disciple…” 

There was a hierarchy among the Freeman Sect disciples. 

The lowest were the Outer Sect Disciples, followed by nominal disciples and Inner Sect Disciples. 

Nominal disciples and Inner Sect Disciples had equivalent status, but everyone understood that the Inner Sect Disciples were the foundation of the 

Freeman Sect. 

No matter what, Keira attacking Austin was already a 

violation of the Freeman Sect rules. 

Unless she had been an Inner Sect Disciple all along, and her apprenticeship started even before Austin’s… 

But that clearly wasn’t possible! 

Immediately, James frowned 

Kate said, “We can’t just hand Keera over! James, just say it was you who did it!” 

James immediately nodded. “Keera, just say how you 

11:15 

6/9 

< 

418 Chapter 417 

hit him that day. Later, I’ll claim it was all my doing. As the second senior brother, it’s only natural for me to reprimand a junior brother, isn’t it?” 

Keira pulled a wry face. “But that day, I hit him fair and 

square.” 

She and Lewis stormed into the club, dragged the man out, and there should’ve been surveillance. 

James said, “Anyway, we look so much alike, we can just say I dressed up as a woman to do it!” 

Everyone was speechless. 

All eyes moved from Keira’s face to James’s face. 

Then, disdainfully, they looked away. 

How could these two faces possibly be mistaken for 

each other? 

Just as Keira was about to say something, a commanding voice came from outside. “Is this how the Freeman Sect plans to brush off our Gill family?” 

The group turned around and saw a middle-aged woman stride in. 

With a bruised and swollen nose, Austin followed her 

11:15 

7/9 

418 Chapter 417 

inside, dark-faced. Seeing Keira, his eyes immediately turned vicious as if he were ready to pounce in the next second. 

Pointing at Keira, he said to the middle-aged woman, “Mom, it was her who beat me! And she almost 

destroyed me. If you can’t have your grandson in the future, it’s all her fault!” 

Lady Gill immediately turned to Keira. “Was it you who attacked my son?!” 

Then she turned to Chris, her manner fierce. “Chris, do you plan on protecting this Outer Sect Disciple? The Freeman Sect has always been known for its strict rules. Now, are you disregarding not only your own reputation but also the Freeman Sect’s?” 

After saying this, she scoffed and then looked outside. “Where is your Sect Leader? Get him here 

immediately; I demand an explanation today!”

As soon as these words were spoken, Austin immediately picked a disciple and ran to find the Sect 

Leader. 

Chris, covered in sweat from Lady Gill’s glare, 

nervously chuckled, “Lady Gill, we can talk things out. There’s no need to be too angry… Right, where’s Mr. Gill?” 

Lady Gill sneered, “He’s too shy and too embarrassed to argue with you folks. He didn’t come today; I told him to stay at home!” 

Then, with a wave of her hand, Lady Gill had someone bring her a chair immediately, and she sat down, “Today, I’ll wait here to see exactly how the Freeman Sect plans to explain themselves to me!” 

Chris was speechless. 

He stepped forward to exchange pleasantries with Lady Gill. 

Keira watched from the side, furrowing her brows. 

Lady Gill must be nearly fifty, yet she still carried 

11.16 

739 

419 Chapter 418 

herself with fierce determination, her face filled with anger, and with what she had just said… 

Keira turned to James and whispered, “Does Lady Gill hold a high position within the Gill family?” 

Weren’t all the heads of the five major families men? 

James whispered back, “Officially, it’s Lady Gill’s husband who’s the head of the family, but really, they all listen to her. Currently, she’s as powerful as the head of the Gill family, and with three sons under her name, it’s no surprise she’s spoiled her youngest into 

what he is now…” 

Feeling a sense of lament, Keira recognized that Lady Gill was clearly a formidable woman. 

Today’s matter would be somewhat difficult to handle. 

She cast her gaze downward 

James then whispered, “I’ve heard that when Lady Gill was young, she liked Uncle Olsen, so maybe we should call Uncle Olsen right now? How about a ‘beauty trap’ 

strategy?” 

Keira couldn’t believe it. 

“Does your Uncle Olsen know you’re asking for a 

2/9 

< 

419 Chapter 418 

beating?” 

Kate nodded. “Yes, yes, that sounds good!” 

Keira thought, “They really are a perfect match.” 

Looking away disdainfully, she asked again, “According to the sect rules, how would this matter be dealt 

with?” 

James replied, “The sect rules dictate that your martial arts cultivation be abolished and you be banished from Freeman Sect.” 

Upon hearing this, Keira frowned. 

Just as she was about to mention that she hadn’t learned her martial arts at Freeman Sect, she suddenly remembered that she was now taking the place of her sister Keera, an Outer Sect Disciple of Freeman Sect, who did practice the sect’s martial arts. 

She didn’t want Chris to be implicated, nor did she want the reputation of the Freeman Sect to be tarnished because of her. 

While pondering, James whispered again, “But don’t worry, we’re all from the five major families. You’re the daughter Uncle Olsen recently acknowledged. Lady 

11:16 

3/9 

419 Chapter 418 

Gill wouldn’t dare treat you so harshly. The Freeman Sect will have to think twice before they punish you, weighing your importance within the Olsen family!” James’s voice was resolute. “At worst, you’ll leave Freeman Sect, right? If you want to leave unscathed, our family has many ways to ensure it. I’d like to see who dares touch a hair on your head!” 

Keira didn’t know what to say. 

But she couldn’t retreat! 

She had to be accepted into the Inner Sect in order to establish a personal and cooperative relationship with the Freeman family. 

As she was thinking, she heard Chris say, “Weren’t the events at the Olsen family the talk of the town yesterday? This young lady here is Uncle Olsen’s very own daughter, just recently acknowledged. It’s said she wandered outside for a long time. Uncle Olsen is very fond of her and he especially called me, asking me to accept her as an Inner Sect Disciple. You and Uncle Olsen are old acquaintances, after all, and it’s just a minor squabble between the kids. Why don’t we call it 

even?” 

11:10 

r

419 Chapter 4181 

Lady Gill’s sharp gaze immediately turned upon hearing these words. 

As she laid eyes on Keira’s face, a slight frown creased her brow. After a long pause, she suddenly asked, “Is your mother Jodie South?” 

Keira didn’t deny it. 

Lady Gill then sneered. “No wonder you dared to hit my son; you’re the daughter of that cheap woman! Back then, she messed with James, so why didn’t she just be with him? Instead, she vanished into thin air, leaving James unmarried all these years! Unexpectedly, she secretly hid herself away and gave birth to you!” 

From Lady Gill’s words, Keira detected a hint of resentment toward her mother. 

Was it because she liked James, so she was taking it out on her mother? 

As she pondered, Lady Gill suddenly said, “Since you’re his daughter, I’ll show you some consideration. How about this, kneel to my son, and we can call it even!” 

These words made Keira frown. 

James also stepped forward at once. “Lady Gill, don’t 

11.16 

5/9 

C 

< 

419 Chapter 418 

go too far!” 

“Too far?” 

Pointing at Austin, Lady Gill said, “Look at how she beat up my son, not a single patch of good skin on him. I’m only asking her to kneel, not for her to take the same beating, and that’s because I’m taking into account that she is a woman!” 

Chris also frowned. “Lady Gill, this is a bit too much for a younger person, isn’t it…” 

Lady Gill scoffed. “I’m simply speaking fairly!” 

Keira saw her speak in a clear and organized manner and decided to try reasoning with her. “Lady Gill, do you know why I hit your son?” 

Lady Gill ridiculed. “Isn’t it just some boy-girl thing? So what? Mary did it, but my son can’t say it?! Since she seduced my son and then took away the collaboration from our Gill family, she should pay the price! My son didn’t make it up, and you dared to hit him just because he talked. Do you think the Gill family was 

pushovers?” 

Keira’s brows immediately furrowed, “Mary didn’t 

seduce your son’ it’s all his nonsense! He already 

||| 

O 

619 

419 Chapter 418 

admitted it himself!” 

“Ha! That was him admitting under duress, after being tortured by you, I heard. You have an assistant as well? Call him over too. I would really like to see who dares to beat up my son like this in Clance!” 

The Gill family’s power was enormous, not any less than the Olsen family. 

Austin was the third son, the apple of Lady Gill’s eye, and had always been spoiled. 

This was why, when Ellis acted against him, the man was so stubborn. 

Austin was certain that Ellis wouldn’t dare to truly harm him until he met… Lewis Horton. 

As Keira listened to these words, her gaze once again 

turned toward Austin. 

She then realized that Lady Gill was actually quite reasonable. It was just that she had been deceived by 

Austin. 

But Lady Gill trusted her son; where could Keira now go to prove that there was nothing between Austin and Mary and that it was all his fabrications?! 

11:16 

O 

7/9 

419 Chapter 418 

Suddenly, Keira felt as though she was trapped in a 

dead-end. 

How could she break this situation? 

Just then, a somewhat hoarse voice strained from too much crying, came through. “Lady Gill, oh Lady Gill, how can you be so lacking in compassion toward the younger generation? 

“If a young woman has beaten up your son, you should reflect on yourself. How could a man allow a woman to beat him to the point he cries? Don’t you think?” 

The voice arrived before the person even entered the yard. 

James’s eyes lit up, “The Sect Leader has come!”
