My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

“Keira Olsen, wake up. What's wrong with you?”

The policewoman noticed Keira’s condition and nudged her.

Dazed, Keira opened her eyes.

The usually strong-willed woman was trembling from weakness. “Please helpto the bed.”

“Alright.”

The policewoman quickly assisted her to the bed and asked, “How do you feel now?”

Keira was in poor condition, and she wouldn't pre even for Holly’s sake. She said, “I'm anemic. Get Ho Sims to do

another blood test. It should show up no

At her words, the policewoman frowned, scrutinizing Keira. “Dr. Sims was angry. She probably won't come

again.”

Keira pursed her lips. “Then you can draw my blood and send it for testing.”

The policewoman said, “Fine, I'll get someone from the

12315

forensic department.”

Having said that, she left the cell.

As she was leaving, she was suddenly stopped by Poppy Hill, “Excuse me, Officer.”

The policewoman turned to her, “What is it?”

Poppy pointed to the ward where Keira was. “That's my daughter. Is she unwell? Can | go look after her?”

The policewoman was taken aback. “She’s your daughter?”

Were mothers and daughters sharing prison cells these days?

Poppy nodded, “Yes, yes, that’s my daughter. You check our relationship.”

The policewoman took out her phone, logged into system, and verified their identities. They were inde mother

and daughter.

The policewoman thought for a moment, recalling Keira’s condition, and said, “Alright.”

Keira, lying on the single bed, had just closed her eyes

when the door was opened again.

Did the forensic doctor cso soon?

She barely lifted her eyelids to see a figure walking in, followed by a chilling voice, “Keira, don’t be afraid. Mom is

here...”

Keira stiffened.

Perhaps due to her weakness, memories of when she was five years old flooded into her head.

At such a young age, without enough warm clothes in winter, she often caught colds.

Every tshe got sick, Poppy would lock her away, not letting her go outside. Whenever Mrs. Olsen out, she

would always cto see her and give h

medication.

But the moment Mrs. Olsen left, Poppy would rush over to her, grab her throat, and force her to throw the

medicine she had just taken.

While beating the defenseless five-year-old child, she furiously berated her in her ear. “You don’t deserve

medicine! Just live with your fever! Why don’t you die

“You deserve this, bitch! Aren't you mighty? How dare

you touch Isla? You've hit her several times, and you dared to defy me, throwinginto this jail. I'll choke

you...”

000 000

The malicious voice from her memory overlapped with the real-tmurmur from the woman, causing Keira to

instinctively huddle, just like when she was a child, wishing she could reduce herself to as small as possible to

fend off the outside pressure.

It was like she was back to being a five-year-old in that cold dark basement.

The room was dimly lit.

She was suffering from extrdizziness caused by anemia, which made her unable to distinguish betweer

reality and memory, with pleas for mercy from her dreams escaping her lips.

As a five-year-old, she pleaded in a soft whisper. “Mom, I'm sorry. | shouldn't have gotten sick. Please stop hitting

me.”

But sharp pain still coursed through her body.

The woman in front of her still pinched her arms, abdomen, and thighs mercilessly.

Keira pressed her lips together tightly.

By age seven, she understood that pleading was useless, and she could only endure.

The pain persisted.

The curses were unabated. “Die! Die! You killed my brother! You'll pay with your life!”

When Keira was nine years old, she learned to resist, even trying to push away the woman forcefully, but she

wasn't strong enough, and it only brought more vicious beatings.

Then there was the toleration at ten years old, eleven years old, twelve years old...

Until she was thirteen and had moved onto high

school.

Although she was still lean, she had surpassed Poppy's height. She pushed the woman away, saying, “Since you

despiseas your daughter, I'm leaving.”

She packed a few worn-out clothes and without hesitation, left the Olsen family...

There was no hfor her in the world, but the

outside was vast and boundless. Everywhere but the

12.14

Olsen family could be her home.

She grew up, and she could protect herself!

Keira abruptly opened her eyes, waking up from her nightmare!!

She looked sharply at Poppy, who was right in front of

her.

Poppy, who was currently pinching her waist, faltered and immediately reached for Keira’s throat, “Bitch, what

are you looking at? You should die! You have to pay for killing my brother!”

Exhausting all her strength, Keira grabbed Poppy's wrist and forcefully pushed her away!

Poppy retreated two steps, falling hard onto the ground. Just as she was about to charge again, a voic cfrom

the doorway, “What are you two doing?!”

Poppy turned around to see Holly, wide-eyed, standing at the door. She then unhurriedly entered the room.

Her gaze swept across Poppy and Keira, confused.

Was she hallucinating? Were these two women fighting?

12:16

Didn't they claim to be mother and daughter?

Keira had exhausted all her strength. She was sprawled out on the bed again without the energy to even move a

finger.

She whispered, “You're just in time. I'm anemic...even if you don’t releaseon bail, you must immediately

takefor intravenous infusion, and giveiron supplements...”

Before Holly could speak, Poppy sat down on the floor. “You're anemic? With the strength you've shown? You

pushed me! | say you're faking it! You fought in here, and you'll be punished!”

Holly, who just entered, had seen Keira open her ey and push Poppy away. The ruthlessness in Keira’'s ey made

Holly feel as if she didn’t know her anymore.

Remembering Isla’s words, she clenched her fists and declared, “Keira, | won't be deceived by you this time!”

She turned and called over the prison guard, “They were fighting. Inmediately take them to solitary

confinement!”

At the entrance of the police station.

The lawyer received the news that bail had been denied, and he said helplessly, “Mr. Horton, if we want to

appeal, we would have to wait until tomorrow.”

Lewis frowned at this, looking at Samuel.

Samuel said, “We can wait another day, but the day after is definitely the last chance...”

Lewis nodded, clearly feeling unsettled.

Just then, the policewoman who was just inside cover and said to Captain Lincoln, “Captain Lincoln, I think

Keira looks really unwell. Women do tend to get anemic during their period. Should we check again?”

Hearing this, Samuel, who was about to leave stopped in his tracks, turning panicked, “Did Keira’s cycle star

We're doomed, doomed...”

Lewis's expression darkened, “What's wrong?”

Samuel was pacing anxiously. “If Keira doesn’t get her iron supplements on time, she must have severe anemia

now! But what do we do now without bail?”

“What do we do?”

Without hesitation, Lewis turned and rushed towards

the holding area!!
