Keira saw the post and immediately frowned.
The post didn't reveal her identity as the senior sister, nor did it explain what the Special Division did. After all, to outsiders, the Special Division was just a small company.
The post only mentioned that old Mr. Sims was a spy and that "Keera" openly protected him, blatantly helping him fund Barry Brandt.
Barry Brandt was once again dragged out for a round of public flogging.
But Barry Brandt had already been scolded before and over the years, had grown accustomed to it. Now, everyone directed their attention to cursing Keira and old Mr. Sims!
There were also conspiracy theorists speculating whether Keira's defense of old Mr. Sims indicated that she herself was a spy!
Keira frowned at the post.
She looked at James and asked, "What has Erin been up to today?"
James answered, "She's been at our place all day, playing games with Charles after he got home."
Keira frowned. "She's not behind this?"
James was taken aback, "What would she do?"
James, simple-minded and physically robust, knew nothing about the affairs of the South family. Keira had never told him, and he had no idea what was really going down.
Keira cut straight to the chase, "Nothing much. Let's go home now."
James immediately followed behind her, hesitated to speak, and upon seeing this, Keira asked, "What's wrong?"
James coughed, then said, "Well, Keera, there's something I want to say, but I don't really know how to put it..."
Keira immediately asked, "What is it?"
"I know you and Holly are good friends. That's why you're helping old Mr. Sims. But no matter how many good deeds he's done before, the fact that he's a spy is true and inexcusable. Keera, I know you're kind-hearted—are they begging you for help?"
Upon hearing this, Keira realized that James also disapproved of her actions.
If she didn't know the truth, she probably wouldn't have felt sympathy for old Mr. Sims either.
Being elderly is no excuse for evading punishment after committing wrongs.
Keira pursed her lips, "No, I'm doing this willingly. I just feel that Holly's grandfather shouldn't be treated this way."
James couldn't help but let out a sigh. "Little sister, I know you value loyalty and friendship, but sometimes you need to distinguish between good and bad people. Being loyal to good people is fine, but being loyal to bad people is abetting tyranny."
Keira immediately asked, "Is it because people in the Freeman Sect are saying something?"
James coughed, "There are indeed some comments, but you don't have to worry. Everyone says you're blind and fooled by old Mr. Sims... they just want me to persuade you to clear your head."
After that, James hastily added, "Of course, if you want to go against Brian, we have no objections. After all, that Brian is too arrogant. He needs to learn about the might of the Freeman Sect so he won't cross us in the future!"
Keira didn't know what to say.
The group reached the parking lot while talking.
Keira was in a hurry to return to the Olsen family, so she turned to Lewis. "I'll drive."
Lewis said, "Are you sure?"
"Yep."
Keira took her seat behind the wheel and buckled her seatbelt.
Lewis naturally seated himself in the passenger seat.
Upon seeing Lewis take the passenger seat, James was puzzled and said, "Mr. Horton, my uncle urgently needs Keira to come home. Why are you letting her drive? With her driving at thirty miles per hour, when will we ever get home? I heard the Olsen Group shareholders have already surrounded the house."
Hearing this, Lewis gave him a glance but said nothing.
James went straight to the back seat, got in the car, and began to ramble, "Little sister, you should let Mr. Horton drive. Otherwise, if we arrive late, we'll surely be criticized. If we get there early, we can demonstrate our sincerity sooner."
Keira glanced at him, then cleared her throat.
Before James could say anything more, Keira started the car, "Are you ready?"
James said, "...I am, but you're not really driving, right? I've seen you park before. You drive so slowly..."
Hearing this, Lewis teased him, "Keera says driving slower is safer. After all, she's anemic!"
James was taken aback. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
He grew even more anxious. "But Uncle is waiting. Isn't it bad to make them wait so long? With her driving speed, it would probably take two hours to get home..."
Before he could finish, Keira said, "Buckle your seat belt."
James said, "...I mean, with your speed, why do I need to buckle up in the back seat?"
After a quick glance in the rearview mirror, Keira saw that he remained unmoved. She smiled and hit the accelerator!
