My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire?

Keira didn't understand what everyone was thinking, but apparently, the situation had already escalated.

The next thing she knew, her phone was ringing nonstop—call after call, all urging her to apologize.

Keira was baffled. Apologize for what exactly?

It wasn't like she and Erin weren't just acting. But even if it wasn't an act and something had actually happened, would she really need to apologize?

By dinnertime, the entire table was awkwardly quiet, with everyone sneaking glances at her.

Even Uncle Olsen eventually spoke up. "Keira, you should apologize to Miss Martin. It's the right thing to do."

Keira was perplexed.

She gave him a long, silent look, then sighed and lowered her head.

Charles, sitting nearby, looked even more uneasy. "Keira, did you really fall out with her? She even blocked me today!"

Keira marveled at how committed Erin was to this act. She'd even managed to drag Charles into it.

Keira cleared her throat. "Don't worry about it. I'm just… exhausted."

Her words brought the entire room to a standstill. No one dared say another word.

Charles looked as if he was about to cry. "If you two really fall out, what about me? She already told me she wants to break up with me! Are you seriously okay with that?"

Keira massaged her temples, exasperated. "Fine. I'll go apologize. Happy?"

Grabbing her keys, she drove straight to the Martin family home.

With Erin's grandfather and brother both out of town, Erin was the only one left in the Clance residence.

Erin opened the door with a smug look. "What? You finally realized you were wrong?"

"Yes, yes. It's my fault. Happy now?" Keira said, clearly worn out.

Erin's expression changed in an instant. "What do you mean 'it's my fault'? Either you're wrong, or you're not! Don't just say it like that!"

Keira stared at her, dumbfounded. Erin's temper tantrum was so convincing she couldn't tell if this was still part of the plan. "Fine. I'm sorry, okay? Can we just drop this now? Honestly, this whole thing feels ridiculous."

That only seemed to pour gasoline on the fire.

Erin's eyes widened, her voice trembling as tears welled up. "Ridiculous? You think I'm ridiculous? Where was this energy when we were kids? Huh?!"

Keira was dumbfounded.

"I didn't mean it like that," she said, trying to keep her cool. "But if that's how you want to take it, I can't stop you."

"Aaaargh!"

Erin was practically hopping mad. "Keera Olsen, do you even hear yourself right now? You sound like a walking list of top-ten worst things to say in an argument! Are you trying to piss me off?"

Keira blinked at her in confusion. "What? I'm just saying you're being unreasonable. Look, can't we just move past this?"

Erin glared at her, furious. "Move past this? Keera, I'm telling you right now—we're done! Don't you dare come looking for me again!"

And with that, Erin slammed the door shut.

Keira stood there, stunned.

Wasn't this… just a little too dramatic?

Who would even believe they'd fallen out over something this trivial?

Rubbing her temples, she took out her phone and called Erin. The call wouldn't go through. She'd been blocked.

Keira was dumbfounded.

This was supposed to be an act… right?

Why would Erin block her?

She sent Erin a message on social media instead: Stop messing around. No one's going to believe we'd fall out over something this small.

Erin replied instantly: Small?! Are you kidding me?! I'm seriously mad this time!

Keira stared at the screen, more confused than ever.

She hesitated, then sent a simple question mark.

The response she got was a notification: You've been blocked.

What the hell?

Her jaw clenched. She was just about to knock on the door again when it swung open. Erin stormed out, climbed into a waiting car, and completely ignored her.

Keira called out, "Where are you going?"

The driver answered instead. "Miss Martin said she's leaving Clance for now. Heading back home."

Without waiting for a response, the car pulled away.

Keira didn't know what to say.

She still couldn't figure out whether they'd really fallen out or not.

And why did it feel like Erin wasn't acting at all? Was she actually upset?

As she stood there, lost in thought, her phone suddenly rang.

The number was unfamiliar.

Frowning, she hesitated before answering.

A robotic voice spoke on the other end: "Rabbit, I heard you and Fox had a fight?"

Keira was surprised.

She lowered her voice. "It's nothing. Just a minor disagreement."

"Heh. Fox is being dramatic as usual. Rabbit, why not join us instead? We're all good sisters here—no drama like that."

Keira blinked, more confused than ever. "Sorry, but I'm not interested. Erin and I didn't really fight."

The voice chuckled. "Sure doesn't look that way from here. If I were Fox, I'd be furious. No way she's not mad at you."

Keira hung up, her head spinning.

Erin's scheme… had it actually worked?
