76 Drive Her Away
When Keira put down her phone, she realized that the
first dance was over.
Jake and Isla walked over from the dance floor, once again surrounded by a
crowd of congratulations.
At that point, someone came over. It was Jake's sidekick, Arian O'neil, who was
feeling smug. He said to Keira, “I know you are Dr. South, but what does that
matter? You are just a researcher. Can you compare to young Mr. Horton's
fiancée? She has connections in
Clancel! In this circle, it's all about who you know!”
Keira didn’t know what to say.
She completely ignored Arian. Looking into the distance, she saw Mrs. Allen
pushing Rebecca out an met Mr. Allen and Frankie Allen. The four seemed to
talk about something, and Rebecca looked a bit
emotional.
She was a little worried and prepared to go over to check.
But she didn’t expect that the moment she stepped

forward, Isla, who just got off stage, stopped her. “Keira, are you going to see Mr.
Allen?”
Isla had noticed her earlier, and seeing Keira going to talk to Frankie now, she
was a bit nervous and stepped
in front of her.
She didn’t know that Rebecca was also at the banquet.
She only knew that she couldn't let Keira talk to
Frankie, in case she let slip. Frankie could tell the real from the fake with one
phone call!
Fortunately, Frankie had just asked for the person to be sent away, which gave
her an excuse.
As long as they could safely get through today, once the Allen family left, no one
could expose her again!
As soon as she started talking, Jake turned his head and saw Keira. He was
stunned by her appearance.
Isla was planning to let him drive Keira away, but seeing Jake infatuated with
Keira and not speaking, she clenched her fists in anger.
Isla took a deep breath and spoke again. “I think this is really inappropriate. Mr.
Allen seems to not want to see you.”

Keira gave her a cold glance. “Who do you think you are? You can make
decisions for Mr. Allen?”
Isla lowered her head, looking wronged.
She definitely couldn't break her innocent image right now. She particularly
missed Poppy at this moment for her accurate and useful advice!
Fortunately, Jake finally came back to his senses. He stepped forward, shielding
Isla behind him, and said angrily, “Keira, how can you speak like that? What do
you mean by “who is Isla?’ She is my fiancée.”
People around them immediately started talking.
“Yes, Miss Olsen is like half the hostess. Among all the female guests here today,
her status should be the highest!”
“Who is this person? She dares to speak to Miss Olse like that! Doesn't she
understand the saying, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do’?”
“I seemed to see Mr. Horton talking to her just now. Could she be the lady
brought by Mr. Horton?”
“She’s just some woman, not Mrs. Horton. How could she possibly surpass Miss
Isla’s esteemed status!”

Keira frowned, too lazy to listen to them speak further. She maneuvered around
them and prepared to leave.
But Isla took a step forward and grabbed her hand. “Keira, it's a celebration
today. There seems to be some misunderstanding between you and Mr. Allen.
Don’t bother him. You man disturb the cooperation between the Horton Group
and the Allen family.”
Keira shook off Isla’s hand. “None of your business.”
She didn’t use much force, but Isla’s eyes flashed, and she intentionally took a
step back and fell.
Jake immediately glared at Keira. “Keira, how could you hit her? Apologize to Isla
now!”
Isla was his fiancée, and in such a setting, he felt embarrassed.
Keira looked amusingly at Isla and said, “I didn’t hit
her.”
“I saw it, and you're still trying to deny it? So many people are watching!” Jake
took a deep breath. “Keira, do you think you can do whatever you want just
because my uncle and Grandmother spoil you? This is the Horton Group, not
your home! You can’t cause a
10 15
r

scene here! You need to apologize to Isla today and leave immediately. Don't
upset Mr. Allen!”
There were a lot of implications hidden in those words.
Arian purposefully asked, “Young Mr. Horton, what's going on? Does Mr. Allen
dislike her? Why?”
Keira also wanted to know why, so she didn’t refute but looked directly at Jake.
Jake chuckled. “Of course, it's because when she was at the hospital...”
Before he could finish speaking, his arm was grabbed by Isla.
When Jake looked at her, Isla shook her head slightly and sighed. “Keira was
impulsive and offended Mr. Allen, but the exact reason is personal and shouldn’
be discussed.”
Jake thought Isla was talking about Rebecca's issues, which definitely weren't
glorious and weren't suitable for public discussion.
Isla continued. “Jake, it was just that Keira used a little too much force when she
pushed me, but she didn't do

it purpose. I don’t need her to apologize.”
On
Jake frowned. “Isla, you're just too kind.”
He glared at Keira, “Isla has dropped the issue without blaming you. Get out of
here now! If you don't leave, I'll call security!”
Isla quickly said, “Keira, Mr. Allen said earlier that he
didn’t want to see you here! For the sake of the Horton Group, it's better for you
to leave.”
The conversations between the two triggered the surrounding people.
“The Allen family is the guest today after all. We should definitely put their
preferences first. This young lady should hurry up and leave!”
“Exactly, hurry up and leave. Don’t embarrass here!”

The raised voices of the argument attracted the attention of the entire banquet
hall.
Rebecca, who had just met with Frankie and Mr. Allen and was annoyed because
she was told by Frankie not
to have too much contact with Keira, noticed the commotion over here.
She didn’t want to join, but she suddenly noticed something. “Isn't that the
northeast corner?”
Mr. Allen replied, “Yes.”
Rebecca was worried. “Let's go and see if something happened to Miss Olsen!”
Mr. Allen unconsciously looked at Frankie’s expression.
Frankie took a deep breath. Seeing Rebecca's anxious look, he eventually
nodded. And so, the four of them
walked in this direction.
