Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Isla was completely dumbfounded and stood there in shock.

Miss Allen… Why was she here?!

She clenched her fingers in panic, wanting to escape this very moment!

Rebecca seemed a bit afraid. The betrayal from her husband and mother-in-law had shattered her confidence.

Yet under the gentle guidance of her brother’s voice, she looked up and followed Frankie’s pointing finger. She thought she would see that detestable woman, but she saw the cold face of her life-saver instead!!

For a moment, she was dumbfounded.

Keira looked at her. “Rebecca, I must have offended you somehow, or perhaps, said something wrong, which made you hate me so much.”

Rebecca was dumbfounded.

She waved her hands in confusion. “No, I, I…”

Frankie comforted her. “Rebecca, don’t be afraid. You can speak up if you have

anything to say.”

As soon as he finished speaking, his father smacked him on his head. “Frankie, have you pointed out the wrong person? She’s Miss Olsen, the young lady who has saved Rebecca!”

Rebecca nodded immediately.

“What?”

Frankie was slightly stunned. He looked at Keira to see her face full of anger.

Her clear and cold eyes were watching them.

He then looked at Isla. Sure enough, her eyes were flickering, and her whole

body was trembling…

Frankie suddenly realized something.

He pointed to Isla, asking Rebecca, “Rebecca, tell me, who is she?”

Rebecca looked at Isla and immediately withdrew her gaze. She waved her hand. “Brother, please help me get rid of her. I don’t want to see her!

Her attitude needed no more explanation.

Frankie’s face changed drastically, and he exclaimed, “So, Keira is the person who saved you, and Isla is the evil woman who didn’t help you and added insult to injury?!”

Rebecca nodded immediately.

The conversation between the two clearly reached the ears of all the onlookers.

Everyone understood what was going on and immediately looked at Isla and

Jake in shock.

Jake widened his eyes and turned his head to Isla in disbelief, only to see her face turn pale, completely colorless.

The whole scene fell silent for a while, and those executives who had just accused Keira and Lewis were now silent as scared chickens.

A cold and deep voice suddenly rang out. “Mr. Allen, who exactly fails to see people for who they are?”

Lewis was indifferent and sarcastic. “You should go to the hospital to get your Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

eyes checked.”

Frankie’s mouth moved, and he dared not say anything.

jalen also mocked him. “In the future, we can’t do kind things like helping people, lest someone gets fooled, and we’ll be cut off from resources … By the way, Mr. Allen, you just said that you would make sure Miss Olsen wouldn’t get any supply in the country. Is this the Allen family’s attitude toward their benefactors?”

Frankie immediately looked at Keira with a sincere, apologetic look on his face.

He had been displeased with Isla because she had made various demands on him, but the real Miss Olsen had never asked for any reward for her help!

He said, “Miss Olsen, I was blind. I’ll make sure that your raw materials are delivered as promised!”

“Right. Good.”

The anger on Keira’s face had disappeared. When she saw the truth, she even

felt a bit dumbfounded.

She hadn’t expected Isla to be shameless enough to steal credit!

She wasn’t all that angry either. Frankie had just been fooled, but it showed that he wasn’t all that clever or had good judgment. It would be better to work with him less in the future.

After Frankie apologized, he remembered the culprit and immediately looked angrily in the direction where Isla was. He was about to settle accounts with her, but when he looked over, he found that Isla was gone.

He frowned and asked in a gloomy tone, “Where is Isla Olsen?”

“She ran away…”

Frankie could only glare at Jake. “Young Mr. Horton, I need an explanation for this!”

Jalen seized the opportunity and said, “Young Mr. Horton, you are too impatient. You have just graduated, and you’re eager to establish a foothold in the Horton Group. But we should rely on real skills, right? Why are you always using tactics that aren’t aboveboard?”

As soon as he said this, the crowd began to discuss.

“The incident with Dr. South was the same, he was promoted to the position of deputy head of the research department by relying on Dr. South, but in the end, Dr. South turned out to be Mr. Horton’s contact…”

“Now I see it. He was planning to get promoted to general manager by the excuse of saving someone’s life this time!”

“That’s too shameless.”

“It turns out that Isla has always been stealing other people’s credit. However, Miss Keira Olsen, who is humble and unassuming, has really helped us so much…”

-Mr. Allen must be embarrassed in front of Mr. Horton. He didn’t dare to refute when Mr. Horton just said he should go check his eyesight. It’ll be easier for them to cooperate in the future!”

The surrounding discussions and glances made Jake feel like pins and needles. He explained, “I didn’t know what really happened until now. It was all Islas doing. It has nothing to do with me. I was fooled by her too!!

Unfortunately, no one would believe him.

After all, husband and wife were one, and they had just announced their engagement so proudly!

Frankie took a deep breath and looked at Lewis. “Mr. Horton, I withdraw the suggestion I gave you when signing the contract and demand that the project cooperation between the Allen and Horton families exclude young Mr. Horton!”

Lewis remained unperturbed. “Okay.”

He glanced at the people around him and said, “The proposal to promote Jake to the director of the project department will be canceled, and his position as deputy general manager of the R&D department will be revoked. Any objections?”

The crowd shook their heads.

Jake felt as if he was slapped fiercely on his face!

He clenched his fist, wished to dig a hole and hide in it, and finally left in humiliation.

“Miss Olsen!”

Rebecca quietly called out and came to Keira. Tears were welling up in her eyes. “My brother is so stupid. He even mistook you for that woman. He also said that he had avenged me. Did he do something bad to you?”

Keira glanced at Frankie and saw that even though he was pretending to be calm, his restless hands didn’t know where to place, revealing his nervousness.

She smiled faintly and said, “No.”

Rebecca immediately sighed with relief. “That’s really great then.

Frankie was slightly stunned, and the look in his eyes toward Keira had some gratitude.

Immediately, his eyes flashed with a touch of grimness.

He looked toward Lewis. “Mr. Horton, where is that Isla Olsen staying? She did something wrong, and she has to pay the price!

Lewis narrowed his eyes and nodded to Tom behind him. “Help Mr. Allen out.” “Sure.”

On the other side, Keira lowered her head and was whispering with Rebecca. Mr. Allen was staring at Keira without blinking.

Mrs. Allen nudged him. “Hey, what are you doing?”

Mr. Alien’s eyes lit up. “I see! No wonder I always felt that Miss Olsen looked familiar! I know whose daughter she is!

With that, he walked straight toward Keira.. “Miss Olsen, is your mother’s surname South?”
