Keira Olsen found herself married without even knowing it! What's more, her husband-out-of-the-blue turned out to be the richest person in town! As an illegitimate daughter, she's been clawing and scrambling her way up, struggling to survive since childhood. She never expected to wed someone so powerful. When everyone thought she'd be quickly divorced, her husband shocked everyone by a declaration."My dear wife, can we not divorce?"
Keira exhaled, relieved that everything around her was quiet.
Erin had raised the South family's reputation too high, leading Keira to believe in the absurdity of the situation despite her better judgment.
At that moment, she turned to Ryan and said, "Nothing happened, which is better than something going wrong. Mr. Cobb, I'm sorry for the inconvenience this twenty minutes has caused you. I will take full responsibility—"
Before she could finish, Selena interrupted her, "You take responsibility? Do you think Ryan's time can be compensated with money? Do you even know who he is? The decisions he makes can affect countless families! Ms. Olsen, you're being awfully presumptuous!"
Keira looked at Ryan, wanting to say more...
Ryan waved her off. "Ms. Olsen, I'll reserve the right to pursue this matter further. Can we clear the way now?"
His expression remained calm, his tone steady, but Keira could sense the underlying tension.
