Chapter 15: Chapter 15
House One Manor in Oceanion is legendary.
It is located on the mid-slope of a hill, covering three thousand acres, with the Horton's ancestral home occupying over two thousand acres.
The remaining dozens of small villas are scattered around the Horton's estate.
It is the most famous rich neighborhood in Oceanion.
Keira Olsen thought that the little old lady's home was one of those small villas; she didn't dare to think it could be the Horton's.
She replied to the message, "No need, we are already in a taxi."
The little old lady showed signs of weariness and fell asleep as soon as she got into the car.
The taxi wound its way up the spacious and clean mountain road, entered House One Manor, and dropped them off at the location set by the navigation before leaving.
Keira Olsen looked up at the ancient and elegant gate adorned with exquisite carvings and hesitantly asked, "Grandma, is this your home?"
The little old lady, still groggy from sleep, looked a bit dazed, "Daughter-in-law, I can't remember."
Keira Olsen: "..."
She messaged her "grandson", "I think we took a wrong turn."
"Grandson": "Wait there, I'll be there shortly."
During the drive, Keira Olsen noticed that the nearest house was a five-minute drive away, indeed, it wasn't suitable to wander around.
She helped the little old lady sit on a stone bench nearby.
Suddenly, a BMW X7 stopped in front of them.
Isla Olsen and Poppy Hill got out of the back seat and rushed over to them.
Poppy Hill frowned and scolded, "Keira Olsen? It really is you! What are you doing here?"
Today, she accompanied Isla Olsen to the Hortons as a nanny and from a distance, she saw a young girl loitering in front of the Horton family gate, never expecting it was actually her!
Isla Olsen, looking at the tightly closed gates of the Hortons, asked, "Keira, are you here to pester Mr. Horton again?"
As soon as she said this, Poppy Hill yelled, "Bitch, don't you know what day it is today? Get lost at once! If you ruin Isla's reunion, I'll never let you off the hook!"
Keira Olsen was truly fed up with them.
But the little old lady was here, and she didn't want to have a conflict with them, so she suppressed her impatience and explained, "I am here to bring an old lady home, and we lost our way."
Isla Olsen said subconsciously, "Isn't that your husband's grandma? How could she possibly live in this neighborhood!"
Keira Olsen retorted, "Why not? Does this neighborhood belong to your family?"
Isla Olsen was at a loss for words.
But Poppy Hill cursed, "Stop pretending! Could the grandma of your poor-ass husband even live here?"
She looked directly at the little old lady, "You old thing, then tell me, which villa do you live in?"
Hearing this, Keira Olsen frowned, about to say something when the little old lady suddenly stood up, "I remember now! I live here! Daughter-in-law, follow me home!"
She grabbed Keira Olsen's hand and walked towards the Horton's gate.
There was still a hundred meters to the gate from here.
But after only a couple of steps, Isla Olsen spoke up, "Keira, after all the excuses, are you still using the old lady as a pretext to go to the Hortons?"
Keira Olsen paused in her steps, looking sharply ahead!
The Hortons?
Although she had some suspicions in her heart when she saw the grandeur of the gate…
It was hard for her to associate the polite "grandson" on WhatsApp with the cold and ruthless Lewis Horton…
Maybe the little old lady got it wrong?
Just as she was about to confirm, Poppy Hill suddenly charged over, reaching for the little old lady, "You old hag, coming up with such lies to freeload, shameless! You are not allowed to cause a disturbance at the Horton's!"
Keira Olsen was startled, she protected the little old lady with one hand and grabbed Poppy Hill with the other, pushing her away fiercely, "What are you doing?"
The little old lady was so old, she couldn't withstand any jostling!
Poppy Hill stumbled back from the push, and once she regained her footing, she cursed vehemently, "Ungrateful wretch, you even attack your own mother for such an old hag! I'm calling the police, accuse you of being unfilial!"
Keira Olsen ignored her, but the little old lady immediately retorted, "My granddaughter-in-law is not unfilial. You're talking nonsense!"
Poppy Hill sneered, "You old thing, just how poor have you become to send your granddaughter-in-law into the arms of another man for money? What? Did she share the profits with you? Or is this what your family does? You must have served plenty of men when you were younger, huh? You disgrace!"
"Shut up!!"
Keira Olsen scolded, quickly glancing at the little old lady.
The little old lady had never been insulted like this before and was indeed shaking all over.
Her hand pressed against her chest, her body uncontrollably began to tremble, and she slumped to the ground.
Keira Olsen quickly caught her, "Grandma, what's wrong with you!"
The little old lady gasped for breath, unable to speak.
Keira Olsen immediately took the nitroglycerin out of her pocket, but upon opening the bottle, she found it empty!!
Her pupils constricted.
The old lady's health was very poor, and it was not suitable to perform manual CPR unless it was absolutely necessary. The best option was medication.
She abruptly turned towards the door.
The Horton family must have medicine!
Even though the little old lady wasn't a Horton, she was their neighbor, and they wouldn't let her die without helping!
Keira Olsen picked up the old lady, "Grandma, don't be afraid, I'll take you to find medicine!"
But she was forcefully pulled back by Isla Olsen, "Kiera, don't do this. It was one thing to take advantage of your age to buy clothes, but how can you stir up trouble at the Horton family? They won't let you in…"
She looked at the little old lady, a dark flash crossing her eyes.
This old lady's complexion was very poor; she looked like she might really be dying.
If she were to die, Keira Olsen's husband would surely hate her! Then she'd see how Keira dares to seduce other men outside!
At this moment, Kiera Olsen felt like she was going to explode with anger!
Rage churned in her peach-blossom eyes, and she raised her foot to kick Isla Olsen.
"Get lost!"
Her voice was hoarse with fury.
The next moment, someone tightly hugged her leg.
Poppy Hill sat on the ground, embracing her without any dignity:
"You think you're the only ones who can provoke trouble? Anyone can do that! I'm going to die too, I'm being killed by my own daughter!"
"My chest hurts so much, I can't take it!"
"Even if I have to die today, I won't let this wretched old hag stir up trouble at the Hortons'!"
Kiera Olsen trembled with rage, her eyes growing colder.
She forcefully kicked Poppy Hill away and struck Isla Olsen's abdomen with her elbow, then strode forward!
Isla Olsen bent over, forehead breaking out in cold sweat from the pain.
But Poppy Hill ignored her pain and lunged at her again, clinging to her legs and screaming, "Help! Murder!"
Kiera Olsen, mindful of the little old lady in her arms, couldn't break free for the moment!
Just then!
A black Bentley slowly approached.
Lewis Horton got out of the car and asked sternly, "What are you doing?!"
Isla Olsen quickly spoke up, "Mr. Horton, it's Kiera who insisted on bringing a dying old lady to the Hortons to cause trouble. It's all my fault for not stopping her…"
Hearing this, Kiera Olsen slowly turned around.
Upon seeing the grandmother she was holding, Lewis Horton's pupils shrank abruptly!
