Chapter 529
ā¦.
Keira knew hacking into someone elseās phone was an unethical act.
But Susan was a sly person, and Keira only hacked into her phone to see if there would be any trace related to the South family or Fox.
Little did she know that she was digging a hole for herself.
She looked at Susan and noticed that, although the latter was crying, the occasional glance she sent Keiraās way was filled with cunning!
It was intentional! Once Keira realized this, she immediately clenched her fists.
Fox was even more cunning than she had imagined. They had predicted that she would hack into Susanās phone and foresee all of todayās events!
Susanās previous concessions were nothing but the groundwork for this moment!
Keira took a deep breath, slowly put down her phone, and then looked at Susan and said, āSorry, Iāve wrongfully accused you.ā
She indeed had no way out of todayās loss.
Susan immediately said, āItās okay. After you hacked into my phone, it also clarified a few things. When my brother and I went shopping the other day, Keira probably saw us, leading her to assume our relationship incorrectly. Is that right?ā
Susan looked at Peter with a very understanding gaze. āPeter, many scenes in filming are shot through forced perspective photography. The misunderstanding between me and Keira is created just like that.ā
James coughed. āYeah, yeah, since things have been explained, we are all alright now! Letās consider this matter resolved!ā
Charles also played the peacemaker. āMiss Simpson wonāt hold it against my cousin, right? She was just worried that Peter might be deceivedā¦ā
Susan lowered her head. āDonāt worry. As long as Keira can clear my name and clarify things, that would be the best for me. I wonāt, and I wouldnāt dare, to make an issue of it with her⦠Sheās the Olsen familyās treasure and the darling you all waited so many years forā¦ā
Her words carried an air of grievance.
It wasnāt about not holding a grudge but not daring to.
Peter immediately felt sympathetic. āIf Keira has done something wrong, there should be some gesture of apology. Look, our wedding is coming up soon; why not let Keira give her future sister-in-law a wedding gift as an apology?ā
He said it casually, but Susan turned to look at Keira. āIs that okay? Actually, I still havenāt found a wedding dress. When we were at the bridal shop today, we fell in love with their storeās treasure, but upon inquiry, we found out that Mr. Horton had reserved it, saying it was prepared for your wedding⦠When are you planning to get married?ā
Keira frowned.
Was Susan using the wedding dress to fish for information?
She and Lewis were indeed engaged, but the two were not going to get married, as Lewis and Keira were already legally husband and wife!
While in Oceanion, Lewis, not believing that Keira had died, hadnāt deregistered her.
So, this engagement was real, and the wedding would take place in the future, but they would not go through the registration process again.
These were details unknown to outsiders.
But⦠her third mission was to form an alliance with Scott Martin. If she held a wedding with Lewis, she would give up that third mission.
Was Susan asking on behalf of Fox?
Keira pondered for a moment before simply replying, āWeāre not in a rush.ā
Susan immediately said, āIf itās not urgent, then can I wear that wedding dress first? I love it so much! Itās so dreamy! Wearing it makes me feel like a princess!ā
Keira was perplexed.
Lewis ordered the wedding dress for her, so why should she let Susan wear it?
If Susan wore it first, and then what?
Would Keira wear it again for her own wedding?
Though Keira didnāt mind superficial things, something that belonged to her shouldnāt just be given away for nothing!
Her expression turned darker.
Seeing this, Susan immediately looked at Peter. āPeter, did I⦠say something wrong again?ā
Peter wanted to nod, but facing Susanās tearful appearance, he couldnāt express his thoughts.
He remembered that Keira had just hacked into Susanās phoneā¦
Peter was a man with a protective instinct toward his girlfriendā¦
He turned to Keira and said, āLittle sister, Susan really loves that wedding dress. Could you let her have it?ā
Peter knew what he was asking was too much, so he immediately added, āI will contact someone right away to customize a better one for you! Susan and I are in a hurry for our wedding. Weāre planning to get married in a week, and thereās simply no time for haute couture⦠We really canāt find any other suitable one⦠Let the wedding dress be your way of apologizing to Susan, okay? Consider it a favor that I owe you.ā
