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 frowned.
To be honest, she didn't know.
During the years she spent with Taylor Olsen's household, she often spied on her Jodie South with the longing eyes of someone desperate for a mother.
Jodie always appeared gentle and serene, embodying the grace of bamboo.
At first, Keira didn't understand why Jodie would be so kind to her, the illegitimate child of a mistress. But eventually, it all made sense.
Jodie and Taylor's marriage was a contractual arrangement.
Even though Taylor professed his love for Jodie and claimed he only cared about their children, Jodie still tolerated the presence of Poppy and Keira.
Would any other woman allow a mistress and her illegitimate child to live right under her nose?
So...
Keira looked at Uncle Olsen and said with certainty, "She doesn't love Taylor."
Uncle Olsen was taken aback. "I know. How could Jodie ever fall for someone like Taylor?"
Keira bit her lip.
