# Chapter 324: A Mother's Cold Shoulder and a Friend's Shocking Discovery
Hello everyone, it's me again! How are you all doing? Today I will continue to walk with you and review Chapter 324 of "My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire Reviews." This chapter is a rollercoaster of emotions—heartbreak, quiet strength, and a bombshell revelation that will leave you gasping. Let's dive right in!
The story opens with Lewis frozen mid-step, as if a spell has been cast upon him. Before him stands the woman who gave him life—his mother, Shirley. For the first time since his birth, mother and son are face to face. As a child, Lewis had yearned for her, secretly gazing at her photos. But now, as a grown man, that longing has curdled into a nameless gloom and ferocity. His eyes lock onto her, brimming with resentment—resentment for abandoning him as a premature, fragile infant at the Horton family, where he nearly died. But in the next instant, Shirley merely shifts her gaze indifferently and turns to go upstairs. Her coldness suffocates Lewis, leaving him feeling more stifled than ever. She doesn't care. She never did.
Keira senses the shift in Lewis's emotions immediately. Before she can understand why, Mary's mother steps forward to block Lewis's view, warning him not to stare at Shirley—a woman of such high standing. The word "sister-in-law" clicks in Keira's mind, and she realizes the heartbreaking truth: Shirley is Lewis's mother. Pity and anger surge within her—anger that Shirley doesn't even recognize her own son, pity for the lonely aura enveloping Lewis. Without a second thought, she walks straight to him and takes his hand. Lewis is startled but reassures her with a hoarse "I'm fine." His restrained demeanor speaks volumes otherwise.
Keira pats his hand gently, then turns to Mary's mother, announcing she's going to find Mary. Mary's mother approves, hoping Keira can persuade Mary to embrace the opportunity to marry Mr. Ellis. But Keira remains stern, then tells Lewis to wait. He stubbornly follows, repeating "I'm fine" like a mantra. Upstairs, they overhear Shirley coldly telling Mary to either marry Ellis or give up the child—a child shouldn't tie down your life. Lewis lets out a low snort of laughter, and Keira's heart aches for him again. She knocks and tells Mary she's come to help.
Mary emerges with a packed suitcase. Lewis takes it from Keira and heads downstairs. But Shirley suddenly calls out, "Stop." Lewis stiffens. Shirley approaches, glances at him, then thanks Keira for taking care of Mary. Keira's reply carries a subtle hostility: "I wouldn't be so heartless as to leave Mary behind." The unspoken implication hangs in the air. Shirley merely nods, and Keira helps Mary leave the house. Mary's parents, cowed by Shirley's presence, don't stop them.
Back at the South family residence, Mary moves into a guest bedroom. Keira finds herself torn between comforting the grieving Mary and the downcast Lewis. But Lewis insists once more, "I'm fine," and says it three times. Keira decides to give him space, but later, in their bedroom, she wraps her arms around him, trying to drive away his loneliness with her warmth. Lewis holds her, and from an angle she can't see, the corners of his mouth curve into a small smile. Seeing Shirley had stirred old pain, but Lewis has always been a master of controlling his emotions. He has been this way since childhood, accustomed to that ache. Now, he realizes there are already too many pitiable people in this house—first Amy, now Mary. If he doesn't act a bit more pitiable himself, where would Keira find time for him? She remains completely clueless.
The next day, Mary wakes up much calmer and even returns to work. She informs Keira that the Davis family, the Olsen family, and the South family have signed a cooperation agreement, and there's a celebration banquet tonight. Keira agrees, then glances at Lewis. He slowly says, "I'll go too... is that okay?" Mary pokes Keira and teases, "Your little boyfriend here seems to be a bit too clingy." Keira is caught between laughter and tears.
That evening, after leaving Amy with the nanny, the three dress up and head to the banquet. Lewis doesn't bring a suit, so he remains in casual sportswear—he is mistaken for a driver when he parks the car. He doesn't look the least bit offended. They sign in at the entrance; Keira writes "Keera." Just then, a luxury car pulls up brashly, and two uninvited guests emerge: Christina and Victoria. Dressed in fancy evening gowns, they become the center of attention. Employees of the Olsen Group swarm around them, exclaiming loudly. Mary whispers to Keira that Victoria was once low-profile but now holds a high-ranking position in the Olsen Group—all because of an old marriage contract between the Horton and Olsen families. She adds, "I bet she'll eventually marry that divorcee, Lewis." Keira is speechless.
After Keira signs, she steps aside. Mary, still craning her neck to watch the spectacle, tells Lewis, "Your turn to sign." The "divorcee" Lewis gives her a cold glance, then quickly signs his name. Now it's Mary's turn. She finally averts her gaze to the registration area, casually scanning upward. She still doesn't know the name of Keira's little boyfriend... But when she sees the signature above, she freezes. A look of utter shock dawns across her face.
**Reader's Impressions & Star Rating:** Wow, this chapter was a perfect blend of emotional depth and dramatic irony. Lewis's quiet pain as he confronts his mother is heartbreaking, and his small, almost mischievous smile at the end shows how much he treasures Keira's affection. The cliffhanger—Mary discovering Lewis's real name—is brilliantly set up. We can feel the tension building, knowing she just told him he's a "divorcee" to his face! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4.9 / 5 Stars.
**Next Chapter Prediction:** Mary's realization is going to trigger chaos. She's about to find out that her best friend's "little boyfriend" is none other than Lewis Horton, the man she just insulted. And wait until she remembers her earlier words about Victoria marrying him—the hypocrisy will be staggering. I predict Mary will confront Keira, leading to a huge revelation about Keira's true identity and marriage status. Meanwhile, Victoria's presence at the banquet might cause trouble—could she be planning to publicly claim Lewis as her fiancé?
