The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 217 - The Backfire

Holly was wired one million to her account after giving the documents to them. There's also a video of Keira when she was working at the convenience store where she was bullied so much. She was glad to have them talk about Keira badly and of course, the Charles Empire would pay them just to tell bad things about Keira. It was already planned and there's no way that Keira would get away with this.

Kennedy Charles was admiring Keira's little face. She looked so young and so thin. He never thought that an heiress would undergo such things like this. He also never thought that Holly would sabotage her ex-friend like this.

"I will have this published in a few days," Kennedy said and reached his martini glass. "Do you hate her so much?"

"I do," Holly said and thought how Oliver would look at Keira lasciviously.

"They will surely backfire a lot. At this moment, they might release the fraud in the press."

Kennedy's assistant came rushing and showed him the tablet. He laughed when he was surprised by the headlines. The Charles Empire has been infiltrating the Golden Age for a decade. They planted spies in the Golden Age which was true and had the people fired right away. That also includes Holly. They also filed charges against it and it will settle in court in a few days.

"She's strategic. Are you sure that she only works at the convenience store?"

"Yes, she also stole my boyfriend." Holly crossed her arms.

"I don't think that she would do that. Are you sure? Because all I know is that the woman was already engaged to Alessandro De Alegre. She just got into an accident and lost her memories, that's why."

"I don't care about it. But I want that bitch done. I know that it'll be a win-win situation for us." Holly picked up her bag. "I will leave now."

"I will send my lawyer to meet you," Kennedy said as Holly nodded. "How about I'll meet you tonight for dinner? I will have someone pick you up."

"Dinner, perfect." She smiled at him but deep inside she's smirking.

She can have the favor of the CEO of the Charles Empire. But she wondered why they were targeting Keira and Alessandro. It doesn't seem like purely business.

After Holly left the company, she was even escorted to her apartment. To her surprise, her ex-boyfriend was there inside her apartment.

"So, who is the guy that drove you?"

"It's none of your business, Oliver."

"And you sent out information about Keira in the market! If people would know that we were the ones who brought her there, we will be doomed!"

"It's not like you drugged her." Holly scoffed and dropped her bag. But she froze and glared at him. "Did you drug her?"

Oliver didn't answer.

"Who are you seeing?" He asked quickly.

"It's none of your fucking business! Now tell me! Did you drug Keira that night?"

"I do. I was the one who also recommended her to that agent! I drugged her to agree with it. She wasn't in her right mind that time."

"You, fucker!" She exhaled frustratingly.

"But gladly, she accepted it. If I didn't drug her, she would still change her mind and back out." Oliver sighed.

"Who else knows about this? And what kind of drug did you give?"

"It's a little amount of ecstasy. It's only a little to boost her confidence, nothing else."

Harvey stopped typing after listening to the conversation with Oliver and Holly. He stood straight and approached his punching bag and started punching and growling in anger. Her father quickly stood from his seat when he noticed that Harvey was acting indifferent.

"Harvey, what's going on?"

Harvey held the punching bag as his chest heaved.

"Th-They drugged my sister so she could sign the contract." He whispered.

"Wh-what? I don't understand?" Henry approached him and tapped his shoulders.

"Keira could have turned back from it. She could. But because of that bastard, she had signed it."

"Okay. You have to calm down, Harvey. We can't just kill people without having our justice." Henry approached his table and had it heard by himself. That's why he checked Alessandro from the other television and increased the volume. He's currently dealing with Keira's case.

Alessandro: We won't release any statement about this defamation. We are currently tracing whoever published this article. It also doesn't mean that we are letting this off. Anyone who tried to sabotage my wife should pay.

"Well said," Henry said and kept his cool head.

"How can you be so cool about it, dad?" Harvey exclaimed.

"Your sister is safe. Besides, even though she was drugged. I know that you and Ian will still save her if Sandro didn't make it. For now, all we have to do is to make these people pay." Henry furrowed his brows. "If she went to Kennedy Charles, I am sure that they are planning for more. They might have evidence but Keira wore a mask from the very start with the people around it. If they would base it with Keira's physique, there might be a resemblance. Besides, Keira doesn't have any visible birthmark."

"What if there's something else they have to defame Keira?" He asked. "If you could see the comments, most people would think that it's impossible. But with the content about mom being hospitalized, it's true."

"We will watch them play on us for a while. So we could plan for the backfire."

Harvey exhaled as he slouched on the bed.

Currently, the content is about Keira who sold her virginity to auction. They have no concrete evidence about it. But Alessandro wouldn't let go of his ace. Henry looked at the monitor where Karmina and Keira entered the office. He quickly stood and left their main control and went to Keira's office.

"Do you want milk tea?" Harvey asked and quickly rushed to her brother and hugged her tightly. "I will buy you a full stall of milk tea."

"I don't want milk tea." She exhaled. "I am alright. My husband already faced those assholes."

Shortly, Johanna and Connor came with desserts and other take-outs to comfort Keira with food. She was pissed that this had to happen. Her husband is currently stressed because of it and he has a lot of things to do. That's what she's worried about. It's all about her husband's wealth. She's so dumb about Holly's threats toward her but she won't meet her just for that.

Before Keira eats anything, she calls Emerald to send food for her husband and herbal tea. She didn't want him to starve himself. So, after a few minutes, Emerald said that he had already set up his food and she called him through video call using the big LED screen as they ate all together. She has to monitor the foods that he intakes. Back then, Keira found out that he smoked but he cut it out right after he found her.

"Thanks for the vegetable salad love." He smiled through the camera.

"I requested it to Emerald. You should eat more, love."

"I will."

After the stressful day, Keira comes home with her husband. Both of them looked tired but Alessandro didn't go further with the work. His wife insisted on only doing the work that they could finish. So, he will have his people work on the PR. He didn't hire anyone special about it. But since they released about the Charles Empire, lots of people started thinking that there might be something about it.

They were also surprised that even the Charles Empire was trying to target the Golden Age. But with the evidence that they have and recordings, it was clear that they were trying to infiltrate the Charles Empire. They already filed charges toward the Charles Empire and the people who breach the confidentiality of the company.

"I prepared special foods this time." Karmina greeted them.

"Thanks, mom." Alessandro hugged Karmina and kissed his temple.

"Just call me if you need any help, son. How about I'll work by your side this time? This is about Keira and we need to work for this." Alex said and embraced Keira.

"I think he needs help," Keira said and hugged back Alex.

"Great. I will prepare lunch with MJ and deliver it to you. It'll be best if you eat my dishes with love."

Karmina looked behind them waiting for Henry but she knew that Henry wouldn't come into the main house. He's currently occupying the Guesthouse a few meters away from the mansion with Harvey and MJ. She will sleep in the guest house too and no maid or security always peered through it.

"I will eat in the guest house," Karmina whispered to Keira who nodded her head.

After their dinner, Keira prepared a warm bath for them and after that, she gave him medicine and hot milk. Then, they walked into the garden and went back to their room as she massaged his head. They should be happy with the outcome that the netizens brushed off about it.

The netizens commented: 'How would a rich lady sell off her virginity just for the sake of her mother's operation.'

'They are rich, there's no need to sell the body!'

'This is absurd!'

It was led by Keira's friends. Arianna, Sophia, and Tracey.

"We should sleep well tonight." He whispered.

"We should sleep well and let them worry about us." She giggled and hugged her husband tightly.
