Mi marido accidental es ¡un billonario!

Holly frowned with worry.

Seeing this, Keira immediately offered words of comfort. “Don’t worry. I’m prepared.”

Holly asked anxiously, “Then what do we do now?”

Keira replied, “You go back and get some sleep first. We’ll talk after that.”

Holly had been keeping vigil here all night, toiling away without sleep, and since Vera hadn’t slept, she hadn’t either. She had large dark circles under her eyes.

Upon hearing Keira’s suggestion, she sighed. “All right then.”

They walked toward the exit of the Special Division. Just as they reached the doorway, a voice filled with urgency called out, “Holly!”

Keira turned her head t and saw it was Holly’s father, Vincent.

The middle-aged man maintained his scholarly and appropriate demeanor. His stride was firm as he approached them.

When Keira saw him, there was a hint of distraction on her face.

Back in junior high, she and Holly were best friends, so she would often see Vincent.

Although Vincent was a forensic doctor, he often dressed in casual attire, holding a donut in hand as he took Holly to school. He would occasionally bring an extra one for Keira if he knew she hadn’t had breakfast.

Whenever Vincent spoke to Holly, he was always gentle, with a smile on his face.

He wore glasses and spoke with clear logic. His deep voice always conveyed a sense of stability, as though he could hold up the sky for Holly.

Whenever Keira saw Vincent, she felt admiration.

Because, in her imagination, that was what a father should be like.

Taylor treated Isla just like that, gentle and patient.

But whenever he faced Keira, it was with disdain and impatience.

It made her wonder if her existence was a mistake; otherwise, why would she be so disliked…

The harder fatherly love was to come by, the more she envied others for having it.

Perhaps neither Holly nor Vincent knew her thoughts back then…

Looking back, Keira only felt as if it were a lifetime ago.

It was as if the life with Taylor and Poppy in Oceanion had long faded from memory. Now, she also had a father who adored her…

Keira gathered her thoughts, only to see Holly with teary eyes.

Holly had just shown strength in front of Keira but had now turned into a child in front of her father. She said with a grievance, “Dad, what on earth is happening with Grandpa?”

It was also why Vincent came here. His face was still gentle when he touched Holly’s head and explained, “Your grandfather will be fine. The Sims family is loyal to Crera. He couldn’t have done anything wrong.”

Holly frowned. “But they said they’ve found key evidence!”

Vincent lowered his gaze. “Don’t worry, there must be some misunderstanding. However, we have to trust the authorities. They won’t wrong a good person!”

Yet Holly bit her lip.

Seeing her like this, Vincent couldn’t help but smile. “What’s the matter? I know you’re worried about your grandfather, so I came here to reassure you. Why the long face still?”

Holly then looked toward Keira, “But Vera South, the criminal that we caught and the one who wanted to kill Keera, has a very powerful background. She has a connection with the Interpol. The Interpol is coming tomorrow to take her away! Dad, we can’t let them do that; otherwise, the matter with Keera will never be cleared up!”

Upon hearing Holly’s words, Vincent looked toward Keira.

Upon seeing her, he was slightly startled, “Keira? You… Holly cut him short. “Dad, she’s not Keira. She just resembles Keira a bit. She’s the only daughter of the Olsen family, Keera Olsen.”

Vincent was startled.

When he met Keira years ago, she was still in junior high. It had been over ten years since he last saw her, so he wasn’t certain of her current appearance.

He hesitated, examining “Keera”.

Holly instantly said, “She’s a friend I made in Clance. Dad, can you help her? Keep Vera here!”

Vincent frowned, “Holly, you…”

“Dad, I’m begging you!”

Holly gave Vincent’s arm a little shake.

Vincent managed a wry smile. “All right, I’ll think of something, but no promises.”

“I know you’re the best!”

After that, Holly looked at Keira. “Keera, don’t worry. Since my dad said he’ll think of a way, he will definitely manage to keep Vera here for you.”

Keira nodded her appreciation. “Thank you, Uncle Sims.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“You’re welcome.”

Vincent hesitated as he looked at Keira. “You just mentioned the person who got caught is Vera South? Her surname is South?”

Keira’s senses sharpened at once, and she asked, “Uncle, do you know of the South family?”

Vincent nodded. “The South family is quite a mysterious force.”

Keira had heard this introduction more times than she could count…

In Clance, when people who had heard of the South family spoke of them, their first remark was always the same.

Mysterious.

That single word was the definition of the South family.

Vincent continued. “My father and I have studied the South family. We believe that while they keep a low profile, they’re not to be underestimated. The Special Division has also been collecting information on the South family, but unfortunately, so far, we haven’t uncovered much. If my father were here, he definitely wouldn’t let Interpol take the person away. What a good opportunity to learn about the South family!”

Holly was taken aback. “Is the South family that important? Is it worthy of such attention?”

Vincent nodded. “The main issue is we don’t know whether they are friends or foes. Their position is very strange as if they don’t take sides, yet at the same time, they seem to have an agenda…” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Holly quickly explained to Keira, “The Special Division is tasked with gathering intel on potential threats to the country’s future…”

Keira nodded in understanding.

Vincent said, “Given that, I must help my father keep Vera here. I’ll figure out a way.”

Leaving those words behind, he turned and walked away.

Only then did Holly look at Keira. “The people from Interpol won’t arrive until tomorrow. Should we go and interrogate Vera now to see if we can get more information?”

Keira shook her head. “Interpol’s arrival has given Vera hope. She won’t divulge anything before that hope is shattered.”

Holly appeared slightly disappointed. “So we can’t do anything today.”

“Yeah, get some rest. Save your energy. We’ll have to deal with Interpol’s people tomorrow.”

Holly said, “Right, we absolutely can’t let them take Vera!”

Keira nodded, thinking, “And while I’m at it, I’ll expose the mole inside the Special Division, Fox’s agent!”
