73 Match Made in Heaven
At Rebecca’s words, Mr. Allen and Mrs. Allen also
looked carefully, seeming to catch a glimpse of Keira’s lovely face.
They also wanted to greet her, but the Bentley never stopped and directly drove past them.
Mr. Allen was taken aback. “Seems like it was indeed
Miss Olsen?”
Mrs. Allen also agreed. “I think I saw her as well.”
Frankie frowned.
The one sitting in Lewis’s car could only be Keira, not
Isla.
He looked at Rebecca, “Was that Miss Olsen, the one who has helped you?”
“Yes!” Rebecca said excitedly. “Hurry up and catch up with her! I want to attend the banquet with her!”
Frankie clenched his jaw.
Could it really be Isla in the car?
As the whole family got into the car and chased after

the Bentley, it was already out of sight. Rebecca instructed the driver, “Drive faster. We might run into Miss Olsen before entering the banquet!”
The driver sped up and indeed saw the Bentley again before entering the Imperial Hotel.
Unfortunately, the Bentley went directly into the
employees’ parking lot, while their car was stopped
outside.
Frankie consoled Rebecca. “We can meet her at the
banquet.”
Rebecca appeared disappointed. “I guess that’s the only choice.”
The Imperial Hotel was also part of the Horton Gro so Lewis’s car was parked directly in the employee
area.
After Keira got out, she followed Lewis. She noticed something wasn’t right as they walked on.
It didn’t seem to be the way to the banquet but to a
hotel suite..
She paused slightly.
Lewis seemed to have sensed it and turned to look at
her as if asking her what was wrong.
Keira hesitated. “Where are we going?”
“The suite,” Lewis answered simply.
Keira’s heartbeat accelerated. “What for?”
Before Lewis could speak, Tom, who was following them, replied instinctively, “Of course, it’s for your makeup and dress for the evening! It was inconvenient in the hospital, so we booked a suite!”
Keira was speechless.
Only then did she realize she had been overthinking.
She cleared her throat to conceal her embarrassment
“I see.”
Seeing this, Lewis glanced at her as if seeing through her thoughts, a faint smirk tugging at the corner of his
mouth.
Keira felt hot and her cheeks slightly flushed.
She quickly diverted her gaze.
She felt she was rather wishful thinking.

later, so what was she thinking just now?
Tom even asked back, “What did Miss Olsen think we were going to do?”
Keira lowered her eyes, her cheeks redder, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Just as she was trying to pretend to be calm, Lewis had already changed the subject. “Has the makeup artists arrived? How are the preparations for the dress?”
Tom quickly replied, “They arrived early. As for the dress, since we didn’t know what Miss Olsen would like, we prepared over a dozen for her to choose from…”
Keira breathed a sigh of relief inwardly.
The three of them soon arrived at the presidential suite on the top floor.
The makeup artist respectfully asked, “Miss Olsen, which dress do you prefer?”
Keira frowned slightly. In front of her were rows of luxurious dresses in all kinds of colors and styles, making it a dazzling array.

When she was living with the Olsen family, she was never allowed to attend banquet events. After moving out, she focused on working to make money, so she didn’t have much experience in this area.
But she was not at all flustered. She calmly asked the makeup artist, “Do you have any suggestions?”
The makeup artist brought out a simple, silk contour dress. “Miss Olsen, you might want to try this one. Although you look thin, you have a great figure. Wearing this one will surely make you the center of
attention.”
Keira nodded. “Let’s go with this one.”
She followed the makeup artist into the bedroom of the suite to change clothes and returned quickly.
Lewis was sitting on the sofa silently. Hearing the doo open, he instinctively looked over…
Just one glance and his eyes flashed with amazement.
When the makeup artist commented earlier on her good figure, he hadn’t paid much attention. After all, this woman usually wore casual and comfortable
clothes, hiding her curves.

But the green silk long dress was so fitted. It delicately clung to her body, outlining her slender figure. Her back was thin but straight, the delicate collarbone was incredibly sexy, and her full chest…
Her slender waist exuded a sense of strength.
Her skin was fair, and her black hair cascaded freely down her back, swaying with the movement of her dress. This outfit would make an ordinary woman look charming, but on her, it exuded a wild aspect, triggering the most primitive desire in men…
Lewis swallowed slightly, knowing that he should politely shift his gaze away, but his eyes were as if captured by something. He couldn’t look away at all.
Keira felt his heated gaze, and her cheeks felt slightly
warm.
It was the first time she wore such an alluring dress. She was initially somewhat hesitant, but his reaction
made her more at ease. “What does Mr. Horton think?”
“It’s okay.”
Lewis picked up the cup next to him and took a sip of water, soothing the heat in his chest.
Keira walked forward, intending to take a look at herself in the mirror.
But as someone who had never worn high heels before, she lost her balance as soon as she lifted her foot, tipping over to her right.
“Careful.”
Lewis surged up from his seat, instinctively wrapping an arm around her waist.
After Keira regained her balance, she felt his large hand at her waist. The heat from his palm seeped through the thin silk of her dress onto her skin, making her feel as if she had been burned. She instinctively pushed him away and took two steps back.
The temperature in the room seemed to rise by sever degrees, making the room stifling and lacking oxygen.
Keira felt a little flustered, so she took a deep breath and decisively kicked off her high heels. “These high heels are a bit difficult to manage. I think I’ll just wear
flat shoes.”
There was no rule that ceremonial dresses must be

matched with high heels anyway.
“Miss Olsen is tall and has a straight posture. Flat shoes would work as well.”
The makeup artist smiled. “I didn’t think much about it earlier, but I only realize now that the color of your dress matches Mr. Horton perfectly. You two look like a match made in heaven.”
Keira didn’t say anything.
She thought Lewis would refute, but until they left the room, he didn’t say much.
Something stirred in Keira’s heart, and her eyes
flickered.
Even though she had never been in a relationship, sl wasn’t so slow as not to notice the change in a man’
attitude toward her.
If it were before, she would have kept her distance immediately.
But this time, she found it rather sweet.
Keira didn’t want to delve into why and just let things develop naturally.

The two of them walked into the banquet hall, entering through the main entrance.
Rebecca, who had been in the banquet all along, sat in
her wheelchair in a corner, eating pastries.
Frankie, standing beside her, held a glass of champagne.
Rebecca looked around. “Where’s Miss Olsen? Why hasn’t she arrived yet?”
Just as she finished her sentence, there was a
commotion at the entrance.
