My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！ - Chapter 652

652 Chapter 651

Keira stared at the message, snorted softly, and didn’t respond. She tossed her phone into her pocket.

Then she turned to Old Mr. Sims. “I’ll take you back.”

Old Mr. Sims sighed but said nothing. He slowly turned around and, with the help of his walking cane, walked back into the prison he had built for himself.

After escorting Old Mr. Sims back to his office cell, Keira exited the building, only to see Holly with red-rimmed eyes standing there, watching them. “Keira, I’m sorry for causing you trouble.”

Keira patted her shoulder. “You never have to apologize to me.”

Holly wiped her tears. “But you shouldn’t have stood up for me. Do you know that many people in the Special Division were cursing at you just now?”

Keira replied, “A few curses won’t hurt me.”

Holly choked up. She looked at Keira and suddenly recalled how, in junior high, it was Keira’s fearless spirit that had attracted her in the first place. So many years had passed, and her girl had never changed.

Holly clenched her fists. “Keira, I won’t make things difficult for you.”

She turned and walked toward Brian Dawson’s office.

Keira blinked. “What are you going to do?”

“Resign.”

“The Freeman Sect has truly fallen. They’ve accepted such a person as their senior sister. I really wonder if the Sect Leader is blind.”

“I feel so ashamed of the Freeman Sect.”

Keira seemed not to hear any of this as she stepped out of the Special Division.

Lewis was waiting for her in the parking lot. She walked over, got into the car, and Lewis said, “One week.”

Keira blinked. “What?”

Lewis looked at her. “Professor Brandt will return to the country in one week.”

Keira’s expression brightened. “Are you sure?”

Lewis nodded. “I just got in touch with him. He’s aware of old Mr. Sims’s arrest and won’t wait for a year for old Mr. Sims’ sake. He plans to come back in a week with his students. When the time comes, I’ll personally ensure their safe return.”

Keira asked, “Won’t his sudden return affect his mission?”

Lewis smiled. “Professor Brandt has long become one of the top scientists in the physics field. He has been wanting to return home but hasn’t found the right opportunity. Moreover, if old Mr. Sims can make sacrifices for Professor Brandt, how could Professor Brandt possibly stand by and watch old Mr. Sims spend his remaining days in prison? Their friendship… is one of mutual support.”

These words made Keira pause for a moment. Then she nodded. The friendship of the older generation was truly moving.

As she was contemplating this, her phone rang. James’ voice came through. “Keera, your actions at the Special Division have been reported by Brian Dawson to the Sect Leader, and he’s ordered you to come back immediately to face punishment!”

Keira felt exasperated. She twitched the corner of her mouth and looked at Lewis. “Can’t go home. Let’s head to Freeman Sect first!”
