# Chapter 66: Past Events: The Hidden Scars of a Broken Family
Hello everyone, it's me again! How are you all doing? Today I will continue to walk with you and review Chapter 66: Past Events of "My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire Reviews." This chapter peels back the layers of Lewis Horton's guarded heart, revealing the painful truth behind his cold exterior. Get ready for an emotional rollercoaster as we uncover the secrets that have shaped this mysterious billionaire.
The chapter opens at the hospital, where Old Mrs. Horton's sharp ears catch a name that sends a ripple of tension through the room. "Which Allen family?" she asks, her voice carrying a mix of curiosity and concern. Tom instinctively glances at Lewis, his eyes betraying a shared secret. But Lewis, ever the calm and composed businessman, answers without hesitation: "The Allen family from Glance." And in that simple utterance, the air grows heavy with unspoken history.
Keira, with her acute sensitivity, feels the shift in atmosphere. Her doe-like eyes dart between Lewis and Tom, reading the subtle tension that now crackles in the room. Tom discreetly signals her to stay quiet, to avoid speaking recklessly. It's a silent warning that something deeper lies beneath the surface.
Enter the nurse with breakfast, and Keira helps Old Mrs. Horton to the table. The three of them usually eat in silence, but today is different. After finishing half her bowl of milk, Old Mrs. Horton sets down her spoon. "Brat, isn't it better for you not to work with the Allen family?" she asks, her words heavy with implication.
Keira looks at Lewis. The man lowers his gaze, his long eyelashes veiling his thoughts like a curtain drawn over a stormy sea. He remains inscrutable, unreadable. Tom, sensing the need for privacy, quickly suggests, "Miss Olsen, if it's alright, shall we go and ask the doctor about Old Mrs. Horton's health status?" Keira understands immediately – Tom is clearing the room. The rest of the conversation isn't meant for their ears.
She picks up her half-eaten sandwich, ready to follow Tom out. But Old Mrs. Horton grabs her arm firmly. "My dear, you don't need to leave. You're one of us, not an outsider. Sooner or later, you'll know about the mess in this family!" The old lady's grip is surprisingly strong, her eyes pleading for Keira to stay.
Tom looks to Lewis for guidance. Lewis furrows his brows, clearly displeased, but he opens his mouth and then closes it again, saying nothing. Tom leaves quietly, closing the door behind him and standing guard outside.
Now Keira is caught in a dilemma. She's not Lewis's real wife or lover. Is it appropriate for her to listen to such intimate family secrets? Just as she's wrestling with this internal conflict, Old Mrs. Horton begins to speak. "My dear, I've never told you about my spoiled brat's mother, have I?"
Keira glances cautiously at Lewis, who continues eating his bread as if the conversation doesn't concern him. She ventures a question: "Was Mr. Horton's mother related to the Allen family?"
Old Mrs. Horton lets out a heavy sigh. "She has no connection with the Allen family, but with Mrs. Allen. In fact, the brat's mother is Mrs. Allen's sister."
The revelation hits Keira like a wave. She sits up straighter, preparing herself for a story that promises to be painful.
And so Old Mrs. Horton begins to unravel the past. Years ago, the Horton family wanted an alliance with the Davis family from Clance. Nathan Horton, Lewis's father, had already been divorced once in his youth. When he was just over forty, he married a young woman in her twenties from the Davis family – Lewis's mother. But after she became pregnant, the family discovered that Nathan's ex-wife had secretly raised a son – Oliver Horton, Lewis's older half-brother.
Keira mentally sorts through the tangled web of relationships. Miss Davis was Lewis's mother. Nathan Horton had a son with his ex-wife – Oliver, who is also Jake Horton's father. Oliver and Lewis are half-brothers. No wonder they're at odds.
Old Mrs. Horton continues, her voice trembling with old wounds. "Marrying a man nearly twice her age was hardly attractive for the young Miss Davis. It was a business alliance. She was reluctant, and when she discovered the deceit, she was furious. She was a hot-tempered woman and chose a C-section while she was seven months pregnant. After giving birth to the brat, she sought a drastic divorce and went back to the Davis family. Naturally, the Davis family resented the Horton family, and all communications between the two families were severed."
The old lady's face shows traces of sorrow and regret.
Keira's heart tightens. She looks at Lewis, who remains silent and still. The weight of this story presses down on her chest. She thinks about how Nathan Horton may have deceived Lewis's mother, about her right to demand a divorce. But then a darker question arises: how could Miss Davis be so heartless as to abandon her child – a baby born prematurely at seven months – with the Horton family? Couldn't she have waited just two more months? He was already a seven-month fetus. He was a **life**.
Suddenly, Keira remembers something Old Mrs. Horton once mentioned – that Lewis as a newborn weighed only around one and a half pounds. He spent three months in a neonatal intensive care unit, with tubes across his tiny body. Several times he nearly didn't survive. That's why the old lady nicknamed him "Puppy"... Now she understands. That wasn't just a nickname of endearment. It was a testament to a fight for survival from the very moment he was born.
She thinks about what Lewis once told her when she was feeling down about her own family: "Some people don't deserve to be mothers. You can simply treat them as strangers." Keira draws a deep breath, her chest aching. The truth dawns on her with painful clarity – Lewis is just like her. He, too, was abandoned by his biological mother.
She looks at Lewis, who is now drinking milk with his head lowered. His handsome features look as tough as iron, making him seem distant and untouchable. But that aloof demeanor carries a sense of brokenness, like a statue that has been cracked but still stands tall.
Keira feels a tug at her heartstrings. A sudden, overwhelming urge washes over her – she wants to hold him. To comfort the little boy who was left behind by the woman who should have loved him most.
Old Mrs. Horton sighs again, her brows knitted in worry. "I heard that Mrs. Allen and the brat's biological mother were extremely close sisters. That's why the Allen family has disapproved of the Horton family all these years. Everyone has their own perspective, and none is right or wrong. But if this history is going to strain your relationship with the Allen family, is it necessary to force this business partnership?"
Lewis finally puts down his glass of milk. He wipes his mouth gracefully with a napkin and looks up, his eyes steady. "We are all adults, and business always boils down to interests. We don't bring up past grudges." He rises from his seat. "Grandma, don't worry. I won't let myself be wronged."
Keira follows Lewis as they walk from the hospital ward toward the rehabilitation department. But at the entrance, they are stopped. Frankie Allen's secretary stands before them, apologizing with a grim expression. "Mr. Horton, Miss Allen isn't in good condition. It's not convenient for her to entertain visitors."
Tom explodes with fury. "It's an honor for the Allen family that our Mr. Horton has deigned to visit! They dare to drive us away?"
The secretary quickly clarifies that no offense is intended, that she really isn't doing well.
Before Tom can argue further, Lewis intervenes calmly. "Let's go."
The trio turns back. On the way, Tom continues to seethe with anger. "That's an outrage! Do they really think we're afraid of them? We're simply trying to avoid causing trouble!" He worries that if word gets out that Jake visited the patient the day before but Lewis was turned away today, it would make their boss look weak.
But Lewis remains composed. "Frankie Allen isn't one to be arrogant. His sister must be truly unwell."
Tom finally stops complaining.
At the parking area, Lewis parts ways with Tom, heading to the company. Keira lets out a sigh, preparing to return to Old Mrs. Horton's ward. But just then, her phone beeps. It's a message from Rebecca's brother – Frankie Allen. "Miss Olsen, could you please come by the hospital? Rebecca's not doing well, and she insists on seeing you."
Keira stares at the message, her mind spinning with confusion. Rebecca's brother... Frankie Allen.
The chapter ends with Keira standing at a crossroads, caught between the secrets of the Horton family and the desperate call from the Allen sister.

## Reader's Impressions & Star Rating
What an emotionally charged chapter! This chapter really hit me hard. We finally uncover the deep wounds of Lewis Horton's past, and it's heartbreaking to realize that the cold, distant CEO we've come to know is actually a man who was abandoned by his mother at birth. The parallel between Keira and Lewis is now crystal clear – both of them were rejected by the women who should have loved them unconditionally. The way Keira's heart ached for Lewis, wanting to hold him and comfort him, was so beautifully written that I felt that tug at my own heartstrings. And the cliffhanger at the end! Frankie Allen, Rebecca's brother, is calling Keira to see Rebecca, who isn't doing well. What connection does Keira have with the Allen family? And why is Rebecca insisting on seeing her? This chapter masterfully weaves together family drama, emotional revelations, and intriguing plot twists.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rating: 4.8 / 5 Stars
## Next Chapter Prediction
I predict that Keira will go to see Rebecca, and the meeting will reveal shocking new information about the connection between the Allen family, the Horton family, and perhaps even Keira's own past. Could Rebecca's distress be linked to Lewis? Or is there a deeper secret that ties Keira to the Allen family that she herself doesn't know yet? I'm also expecting more tension between Lewis and the Allen family, especially now that old wounds have been reopened. And will Keira ever get the chance to comfort Lewis, to reach through that tough exterior and hold the broken boy inside? The next chapter promises to be explosive!
