# Chapter 522: A Leap of Despair and a Knife's Edge
Hello everyone, it's me again! How are you all doing? Today I will continue to walk with you and review Chapter 522 of "My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire Reviews". This chapter is absolutely gut-wrenching, filled with heartbreak, shocking revelations, and a cliffhanger that will leave you breathless. So, let's dive right in!
---
Keira found herself in an impossible position. Nara had asked her directly whether she should return to the Gill family, and Keira's heart ached with the weight of that question. From a strategic standpoint, she desperately needed Nara to reconcile with the Gills—it was the only way she could complete her mission and return to the South family to rescue her mother. But how could she say that out loud? Forgiveness wasn't something you could demand from someone, especially not after everything the Gill family had put Nara through. Keira was no saint, but she knew better than to manipulate someone's feelings for her own gain.
Just as Keira's hesitation grew heavy in the air, Nara seemed to understand something profound. She turned and began walking toward the Gill residence, ready to sacrifice her own feelings for Keira's sake.
But Keira stopped her immediately. "That won't be necessary."
Nara looked at her with questioning eyes.
Keira forced a smile. "Even if I let you go back to the Gills, you and them won't be able to resolve your issues. I think that even if you returned, you wouldn't be of any help to me."
Keira needed a deep binding with the Gill family—something far more profound than Nara's reluctant return. Even if Nara went home, she couldn't fully reconcile with Austin and Lady Gill. The rift between them was too deep, too painful. Nara couldn't control the narrative of the Gill family as long as that wound remained unhealed.
Keira took a deep breath. "Let's go. I'll give you a ride."
Nara paused, pulling out paper and a pen to write. "Are you sure it's unnecessary?"
"If it were necessary, I would tell you."
Keira lowered her gaze to Lewis, who nodded at her in silent agreement. Together, they accompanied Nara back to the alleyway, then turned and left.
Once inside the car, Keira's mind began racing with unease. "That unknown number told me that the South family had already sent someone to obstruct my mission. Which task are they exactly trying to hinder? It seems there has been no interference on Gill's side, right? It feels like there's no external influence."
Gary and Mrs. Spencer had barely affected Nara's decision whether to forgive the Gill family. Even without Gary, the relationship between Nara and the Gills wouldn't have improved.
Lewis frowned thoughtfully. "There's no issue with the Freeman Sect; you're their senior sister, so they can't dissociate from you. For the Allen family, it seems there's no problem. Rebecca has always been at your beck and call. Her parents regard you as their own, and Frankie is also fond of you..."
As he spoke, Keira detected something unusual in his tone.
She immediately coughed. "Why do I feel like I'm detecting a hint of jealousy?"
Lewis snorted but continued his analysis. "The obstacle for the Gill family lies with Nara. Your connection with the Davis family is Mary. Even though Mary has severed ties with the Davis family, they can never truly be disconnected as long as she's around. How are things with your lovesick brother Peter in the Olsen family?"
Keira's eyes widened. "Are you saying that the opponent has made a move on the Olsen family?"
Lewis shook his head. "I'm not sure. I'm just telling you the situation of each family. You're Uncle Olsen's daughter, and it might seem like the Olsen family should be the most stable, but it's easy to sow discord among the seven brothers." He narrowed his eyes. "If I were your opponent and wanted to destabilize your solid relationship with the five major families, I might start with the Olsen family."
Keira pursed her lips. "How would they start?"
Lewis looked at her meaningfully. "The day we went shopping, did we just coincidentally bump into Susan?"
Keira was taken aback.
Lewis continued indifferently, "Before, I hadn't thought much about it and merely found it too coincidental that I ran into Susan cheating right as I discovered she was your fifth brother's girlfriend. But now that I think about it..."
Keira's mind clicked into place. "I get it! Do you mean to say that someone arranged this? The purpose was to sow discord between Peter and me?"
Lewis nodded. "Could you stand by and watch Peter be deceived without a care?"
Keira pursed her lips tightly.
Lewis continued, "In fact, in families from the major families with many brothers, the harmony between brothers after each gets married entirely depends on their wives."
Keira understood immediately. "Guys will keep their brotherly bonds in mind and won't develop major conflicts, but after they form their own families, the relationship relies on the hostess of the house. The relationship between sisters-in-law is the most difficult to maintain. Thus, since I know Susan isn't a good person, it's impossible to let her marry into the Olsen family, or else there would be endless trouble at home! But if I accuse her out of nowhere, Peter won't believe me, which could easily create rifts with the other brothers. This puts me in a difficult position! So, is this Susan a person from the opposing side?"
Her head throbbed with the complexity of it all. She had been warned by an anonymous text that an enemy had come to Crera, but now she didn't even know who that enemy was, and it seemed like the tasks she had already completed were now in jeopardy!
Lewis said calmly, "If we want to know whether Susan is that opponent, why don't we just try and find out?"
Keira looked at him in surprise. "Try what?"
Lewis didn't answer. Instead, he turned the car around.
Half an hour later, they found themselves in the surveillance room of Clance's largest luxury shopping mall. Keira and Lewis watched until their eyes were sore, but they found no footage of Susan and that man entering or leaving together. The mall was immense, filled with luxury goods and countless cameras. But even so, they captured nothing.
Keira furrowed her brows and turned to Lewis.
Lewis said lightly, "This Susan is no simple character. A normal person couldn't manage this. Either she avoided all the cameras or found a way to delete herself from the surveillance footage. So, she indeed is one of your unseen enemies."
Keira felt a chill of fear. "Thank goodness I didn't stubbornly insist on dragging Peter here from the banquet to look for evidence. Otherwise, I might have already fallen out with Peter by now!"
Peter had complete trust in Susan. If Keira had insisted on accusing Susan without evidence, only to find nothing at all...
Peter would undoubtedly feel she was targeting Susan.
Keira's head pounded. "This is difficult to handle."
Why did the people and things around her always bring trouble? Was it so hard to be associated with the five major families?
As she was deep in thought, a staff member from the mall suddenly rushed in. "Look, here's some shocking news! Someone is threatening to jump off a building!"
A crowd gathered, turned on the TV, and tuned in to the live scene. The large screen showed the rooftop of a skyscraper. A man was sitting on the edge, swaying back and forth. Below, the crowd was dense, and rescuers were trying hard to get close. But suddenly, the man looked behind him and shouted, "Don't come any closer! If you do, I'll jump!"
Keira's pupils shrank when she saw who it was!
Gary stood on the edge atop the tallest skyscraper in Clance, staring blankly ahead. Behind him stood the lifeguards and Mrs. Spencer, her face twisted in agony.
Mrs. Spencer screamed, "Gary, what are you doing? Don't do anything stupid, my good son. Please come down!"
But Gary looked at her, shaking his head, his eyes brimming with tears, his expression extremely agitated. "Mom, Nara will never forgive me; she said she would never forgive me!"
Mrs. Spencer's legs nearly gave out from fear. "Gary, she will forgive you. Just come over here. I'll go and beg for her forgiveness. I'll find a way, okay? Don't scare me!"
But Gary shook his head. "What can you do? Because I always listened to you, I pushed Nara farther and farther away..."
Mrs. Spencer shouted, "But I've always done things for your own good!"
"Yes, you were doing it for my good," Gary said in a low voice. "Ever since I was young, you were always doing it for my good. You forced me to drink milk every night, even when I didn't want to drink it. I didn't like it, but you thought it was good for me, so you forced me to drink it. Your idea of doing what's good for me is suffocating!"
Mrs. Spencer's expression stiffened. "Son, I know what I did was wrong. I will never force you to do anything again! Will you come down, please?"
But Gary continued, "Mom, just listen to me." He laughed bitterly. "I know you've always wanted the best for me, but your love is too oppressive, you know? Ever since I was little, the happiest time of my life was spent at school with Nara. The only time I ever wanted to defy you was when I wanted to marry Nara. But you messed that up! You threatened me with death. What was I supposed to do?"
Tears streamed down his face. "I loved Nara so much. Being with her, I felt an incomparable ease. I really couldn't bear to lose her, so under your spell, I said those humiliating words. Mom, I've lost Nara. She'll never forgive me now..."
Mrs. Spencer cried, "It's my fault, it's all my fault! Would you come back, please? Let's go to her together. I'll kneel before her and ask for her forgiveness!"
But Gary shook his head. "It's no use. Mom, do you know? When you forced me to break up with Nara, I was sad but not desperate because I had a dark thought like yours. Even if I chose Miss Gill, I could secretly stay with Nara. With our family's influence, we could even force her to be my mistress... But I never expected that Nara was Miss Gill! Our family's power simply isn't enough! I know she won't forgive me... I understand. I've completely lost her now..."
Mrs. Spencer wanted to say more, but Gary spoke first. "Mom, don't say anything. I wasn't brave enough and must pay the price for it!"
Mrs. Spencer shouted, "If anyone should die, it should be me! Don't punish me like this!"
Gary smiled at her, then said, "Mom, I love you. Don't feel guilty; my death has nothing to do with you. It's just that... without Nara, I don't want to live anymore."
"Mom, goodbye."
Those were Gary's last words before he jumped. He even spread his arms as if embracing freedom or perhaps saying farewell to someone. Falling, Gary kept his eyes open, quietly looking toward the row of tile-roofed houses not far away, where Nara's home was located. Tears streaked from the corners of his eyes; in those few seconds of descent, his mind was filled with the time he had spent with Nara. He saw Nara's sweet smile. He had never said it, but he truly loved Nara...
"Thump!"
The sound of the body hitting the ground echoed through the entire street. The surrounding crowd immediately scattered...
In the live stream, all that could be seen was Mrs. Spencer rushing to the rooftop's edge, calling out to the person below but making no sound. She stretched out her arms as if trying to grasp her son who had jumped, but she only grasped empty air in the end. She struggled desperately, wanting to jump down and die with her son, but she was forcefully held back by the lifeguards.
Afterward, the screen showed a blurred image of the body lying on the street. Mrs. Spencer and a group of lifeguards hurried down. She threw herself onto the body and wept bitterly. Though separated by a screen, those watching the livestream could still feel Mrs. Spencer's deep sorrow and pain.
Keira stared at the screen, her eyes wide with shock. She didn't understand why anyone would commit suicide for love. With Gary's death, how was Nara supposed to live the rest of her life?!
Keira suddenly looked at Lewis. "Let's go check on Nara again."
Lewis nodded.
Keira took a deep breath, turned around, and left with him. They got into the car and drove toward Nara's home. On their way, Keira watched the live broadcast channel on her phone. In the channel, one could only see that medical staff had arrived and covered the body with a white sheet. A group of onlookers stood quietly at a distance, pointing and commenting on the body.
Keira clenched her fists. "Do you think this has the South family's fingerprints all over it?"
Lewis pondered momentarily before answering, "We could try thinking from our enemy's perspective. How would you ruin your relationship with the Gill family if you were the enemy?"
Keira said, "It's simple: prevent Nara from ever returning to the Gill family."
Lewis asked, "And how can she be prevented?"
Keira frowned. "Actually, Nara is now unwilling to forgive those people in the Gill family. She could just stand by and do nothing. But that's not her style because family ties are the most unpredictable thing in the world. With Austin always prioritizing his sister, who knows when he might move Nara, and she might return to the Gill family, right?"
Lewis nodded and continued, "So, is there a way to ensure Nara never returns?"
"Unless she's dead, how else can there ever be a certainty?" Keira casually countered.
But as she spoke, she suddenly paused and looked at Lewis. At that moment, Lewis was also looking at her. Their gazes met, and after half a second, they both exclaimed in unison.
"Nara is in danger!"
"Nara!"
Keira immediately looked down at the live broadcast on her hands, only to see that the body was still there, but Mrs. Spencer, who should have been weeping over the body, had disappeared!
Keira cried out in alarm, "Drive faster!"
Lewis floored the accelerator, and they sped toward Nara's home. The place where Gary jumped wasn't far from Nara's home, but they had to go through the block where the luxury mall was, which took over forty minutes by car. Even though Lewis was pushing the accelerator to the limit, it still took them half an hour to reach Nara's residence.
The car screeched to a halt, and Keira immediately opened the door. She bumped into Matias, who had just returned from grocery shopping. He most likely hadn't watched the live broadcast and was unaware of what had happened. Upon seeing Keira, he was slightly taken aback. "Keera? Why are you here again? Is something wrong?"
Keira urgently asked, "Has Mrs. Spencer come here?"
Before Matias could respond, a neighbor basking in the sun said, "I just saw a middle-aged woman who looked like Mrs. Spencer. She went looking for Nara!"
She had come!
Without a second word, Keira dashed into the alley. She ran so fast that bystanders saw only a blur as she passed. But... it wasn't fast enough!! Keira's heart raced with panic as she rushed straight to Nara's front gate, but she was still one step too late!!
Just as she saw Nara and was about to shout out her name, she saw Mrs. Spencer holding a knife and charging at Nara!
Keira's pupils shrank. "Nara!"

## Reader's Impressions & Star Rating
Oh my goodness, what an absolutely devastating chapter! My heart is pounding! Gary's suicide was heartbreaking enough—a tragic end to a man who was ultimately a victim of his mother's suffocating love and his own cowardice. But the real horror came with that final scene! Mrs. Spencer, driven mad by grief, has turned her rage toward Nara! The enemy Keira couldn't identify has masterfully orchestrated this entire tragedy—Gary's death ensures Mrs. Spencer will blame Nara, and now Nara's life hangs in the balance! The suspense is unbearable!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rating: 4.9/5 Stars
## Next Chapter Prediction
I predict that Keira will manage to save Nara just in time, but not without getting injured herself! Mrs. Spencer's grief-fueled attack will be brutal, and Keira will have to make a split-second decision that could change everything. Meanwhile, the shadowy enemy orchestrating all of this will reveal their first face—perhaps Susan will be exposed as the mastermind, or an even more dangerous player will step into the light! And poor Nara, having just learned of Gary's death through this attack, will be shattered beyond words!
