My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！-Chapter 323 - 322

Chapter 322

As soon as Keira shouted these words, everyone on the other side immediately stopped their actions.

….

Mary’s mother was stunned, looking at the phone screen with disbelief. “What did you say?!”

Mary’s chin was grasped tightly, and she was held down onto the chair, unable to speak. Tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

Keira then said, “The child is Ellis’s. If you kill the baby, Ellis won’t let you off!”

That was the only way to protect Mary at the moment.

Mary’s mother threw away the medicine in her hand.

Mary’s father also hurriedly let go of Mary, then, shocked, he looked at her belly and exclaimed with joy, “Is this true?!”

Mary felt completely drained and collapsed on the bed.

Her mother quickly stepped forward. “Mary, are you okay? Was your dad too rough? Did he hurt you? Does your stomach hurt?”

Mary’s father also nodded. “Right, right, the baby is okay, right?”

Mary, still terrified, clutched her belly and looked at the phony faces of her parents who were now expressing concern, and she found it utterly laughable!

She backed away a bit, putting some distance between herself and them.

Seeing her reaction, her father immediately furrowed his brows. “Mary, don’t blame us. We were afraid you were going down the wrong path. With your looks and your family background, it would be a pity not to marry into a wealthy and influential family! Why didn’t you tell us earlier? If you had told us this was Mr. Ellis’s child, I definitely wouldn’t have treated you like that!”

Mary’s mother was equally oblivious of her wrongdoing, nodding along. “Exactly, why didn’t you tell us the truth? When did this happen? Does Mr. Ellis know? What’s his current stance on this?”

Mary’s father immediately said, “Does he not want to take responsibility? Mary, don’t be afraid. I’ll go to your uncle right away and demand accountability from the Olsen family! We’ll make Mr. Ellis marry you!”

His hands rubbed together excitedly, as if glory and riches were already within his grasp.

Mary’s mother was even more overjoyed. “Yes, yes, besides, we’ll demand an ample dowry from them. Our Mary is marrying Mr. Ellis… Indeed, Ellis is a better choice than Mr. Horton, who’s married once already! Mary, you really do have great foresight!”

As her parents were about to leave, Mary suddenly cried out in alarm. “You must not go to him!”

Her parents were taken aback and turned to look at her.

Mary was trembling, overcome with a sense of shame.

She could almost imagine Ellis hearing this news, the mocking smile on his lips, and that disdainful look in his eyes…

How could she have such parents?

She sobbed as she looked at them. “If you dare to tell Ellis, I’ll immediately terminate the pregnancy!”

Her father immediately frowned. “What are you talking about, Mary?”

Mary’s mother also said bluntly, “You’re not allowed to do that! How else will you marry Mr. Ellis?! Mary, do you have something wrong with your head?!”

Mary felt there was no point in talking with them anymore.

She glared angrily at both of them, feeling utterly powerless, and sat defeated on the bed, saying, “In any case, if anyone goes to Ellis, I’ll terminate the pregnancy immediately!”

Her mother was hesitant as she exchanged a look with her father, both of them asking with puzzlement, “What do you mean by this? Is it not Ellis’s baby?”

Upon hearing this, Mary saw her mother glance again at the abortion pills, and Mary clenched her fists tight.

How ridiculous she felt now!

All she wanted was to pick up the dignity she had once shed, piece by piece, to regain her self-respect in front of Ellis, but her parents were always pulling her deeper into the abyss.

She let out a bitter laugh and remained silent.

She looked at them stubbornly.

Keira, worried that Mary would be at a disadvantage, quickly said, “It is Ellis’s child. She’s still in the early months of pregnancy, and Ellis won’t acknowledge the baby. Even if you go to him, it’s no use. You’ll have to wait until she’s three months along before you can perform amniocentesis.”

Mary’s parents immediately scowled. “Mr. Ellis doesn’t acknowledge it? This is troublesome… What did you do? How did you make Mr. Ellis not acknowledge it? Did you mess up?”

Why wouldn’t he acknowledge the baby?

Why did Ellis think she was a loose woman? Wasn’t it because to secure her parents’ status, she had to drink with men at the dinner table again and again to close deals…

And now, here they were, questioning what she had done.

Mary’s tears finally spilled from her eyes as she closed them in despair. “Get out, get out!!”

Mary’s father was startled. “Don’t be agitated. It’s not good for the baby if you get agitated. I’m leaving now…”

Mary’s mother also said, “Mary, even if Mr. Ellis doesn’t acknowledge the baby, it’s his, and he won’t be able to deny it. Don’t worry, and don’t get excited… I’m leaving now.”

Mary’s parents left her room and helped her close the door.

Mary lowered her head and covered her face with her hands.

Keira called out to her, “Mary, are you okay?”

Mary buried her face in her knees, and her muffled voice came through. “I want to leave this place. I want to go to your home…”

“Okay, I’ll come pick you up right now.”

Keira stood up immediately and handed Amy over to the nanny. The clingy Amy was very sensible and knew by her expression that she was busy, so she didn’t cling to her.

Keira then put on her outerwear and went straight downstairs.

Lewis followed her. “I’ll take you there.”

He was worried about Keira driving as it could cause problems, especially since he had never seen her drive a car before.

But Keira suddenly stopped and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Can you… go?”

Lewis clenched his jaw and pursed his lips.

That place was the Davis residence, where his mother’s family resided. Although Mary had moved out after splitting from the family, they still lived not far from each other. The Davis family’s ancestral home was right next to theirs.

People from the old house would often come over…

Worried that Lewis might feel uncomfortable seeing the Davis family, Keira opened the driver’s door. “I’ll go by myself.”

But before she could get in, Lewis stopped her.

He held her shoulders and took her away, seated her in the passenger seat, and only then did he briskly walk to the driver’s side and get into the car.

Keira was about to say something when Lewis said, “I don’t feel safe with you driving.”

Keira was taken aback for a moment before realizing that Lewis was afraid that those people would come after her again. No wonder he was acting like a bodyguard, staying by her side every day, and even neglecting his work.

She no longer opposed his kindness and nodded.

The car started quickly and arrived at the Davis family’s home.

At the entrance of the Davis family’s home, a graceful figure appeared.

Mary’s parents stood up quickly when they saw the visitor and asked respectfully, “Shirley, why are you here?”

Shirley was a person of Mary’s father’s generation, the legitimate daughter of the first branch who had married into the Horton family of Oceanion. The marriage was initially arranged as an alliance, but Nathan, that old man, had a secret child outside, and knowing this, Shirley decisively had the seven-month-old child in her womb delivered by Cesarean section, abandoned the child at the Horton residence, and returned alone to the Davis family.

She was Lewis’s mother!

Her status in the first branch was exalted, and even Ken had great respect for his older sister.

Upon hearing this, Shirley replied indifferently, “I heard Mary was unwell; I’ve come to see her.”

Mary’s parents nodded and watched as Shirley climbed the stairs.

Before she reached the upper floor, the sound of a car stopping suddenly came from outside, followed by Keira and Lewis getting out of the car.

Shirley’s gaze swept over Keira and Lewis, and just as she was about to look away, she froze, her eyes locked onto Lewis!

Keira had originally intended for Lewis to wait in the car, but Lewis had just witnessed the obstinacy of Mary’s parents, and he worried that Keira might not be able to bring Mary out by herself, so he decided to accompany her inside.

As soon as they entered, they suddenly came face to face with Shirley.

Her aloof aura was so distinctive that one couldn’t help but take a second look.

Lewis’s gaze met hers unexpectedly and without warning…
