Jake stared, confused. "What do you mean?"
Lewis didn't respond.
Keira, however, understood the implication.
The day Grandma wasn't around was the day the main branch of the Horton family would be ousted. Oliver's bankruptcy was only a matter of time…
Previously, Lewis might have felt some guilt toward Grandma since he was dealing with the main branch, but now...
Keira looked at Jake.
When Lewis suddenly said he wanted to invest with her in Jake's project, Keira understood. The main branch wouldn't fall into decline.
After all, there was still Jake.
If Lewis allocated the shares that should have gone to the main branch to Jake, everything would be perfect.
Unfortunately, Jake hadn't grasped Lewis's words…
Keira was lost in thought as the car left the street and dropped Jake off at a location convenient for him to catch a cab. She then drove back to the Horton residence with Lewis.
