My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！

Chapter 390

Keira’s pupils shrank. “What nonsense are you talking about?!”

….

Jackson sneered, “How is that nonsense? It’s all true. Everyone knows that to become an Inner Sect Disciple, you’ve almost gone mad. You came to my bed and offered yourself. I took pity on you and slept with you, and now what? You’ve passed the preliminary selection of the martial arts competition and found another way, so you plan on kicking me to the curb?”

People who had come to fetch things immediately stood by to watch the commotion, pointing and whispering about “Keera”.

“Keera looks quite timid, but I didn’t expect her to be this sort of person…”

“You can’t judge a book by its cover, can you? Anyone who offers themselves up can’t be a good person.”

“…”

As the Outer Sect Disciples pointed and whispered about her, Matias rushed over and angrily said, “Don’t talk nonsense! Keera isn’t that sort of person. It was Jackson who constantly pressured her to submit. She wouldn’t give in! Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone missing these past two months!”

The crowd was momentarily stunned, then turned to look at Jackson.

Jackson scoffed. “Why hasn’t she come over these past two months? Of course, it’s because after I slept with her, I couldn’t secure her an Inner Sect Disciple spot. If I had a spot, wouldn’t I use it myself? This woman really thinks the Gill family can do anything! Is the Freeman Sect a place where we can mess around as we please?”

Matias’s face turned ashen with anger. “Jackson, don’t tarnish Keera’s reputation. Previously, you obviously kept pursuing her without any success, so you gave her all kinds of difficulties, getting her to do this and that, and even reporting to the Elders that she was slacking and not practicing martial arts. That was why her made no progress over the years!”

Jackson scoffed. “Matias, who do you think you are? You’re part of a collateral line of the Gill family, but you’re pointing fingers at me here? With just one word, I can make your family disappear from Clance!”

Matias scoffed. “You think I’m afraid of you?”

“You’re not afraid, but do you think your grandmother would be?”

Matias choked.

Jackson sneered once again, turning his attention back to “Keera”. “Of course, I’m a rather sentimental person. Since you’ve slept with me, I’ll certainly protect you. Keera, come to my room tonight as before, otherwise, I’ll report to the higher-ups that your two-month absence counts as an automatic resignation from the Freeman Sect!”

Keira sneered.

Yet Matias was already furious to the extreme. “If she hasn’t reported in, that’s because you forced her! Jackson, you’ve gone too far!”

Jackson scoffed. “Freeman Sect rules state that an Outer Sect Disciple who doesn’t report in for a month is considered to have left automatically. I’m just following the rules. What about it?!”

Keira said, “Really? According to Freeman Sect rules, are the words of you, an outer sect manager, more important, or those of the Elders?”

Jackson was taken aback. “What do you mean? You think the Inner Sect Elders would speak for you?”

Keira immediately said, “I came for a Bone Assessment yesterday, and it was Elder Grant who allowed me to participate in the Outer Sect martial arts competition. What now? Are your words more powerful than Elder Grant’s?”

Jackson was shocked. “You went for a Bone Assessment again? What could you possibly find out?”

“What I found out has nothing to do with you.”

Keira moved toward Jackson, her face cold as she stared at him, making him uneasy. He had never known that the weak woman who could only beg him for mercy had this side to her.

Keira never cared about what people said about her, but she cared about Keera’s reputation.

Her sister was dead, and she wouldn’t allow such a man to tarnish Keera’s reputation after her death!

Keera had always been softer on the outside but tough on the inside.

Keira’s cold gaze gave Jackson the creeps. He had never known the weak woman who could only beg him had such a side to her.

He swallowed hard but still said, “What do you want me to make clear? How you plead under me? Or how loudly you were moaning?”

Keira grabbed his collar in one swift move.

Jackson reached out to push her away, but the arms of the woman, who had always seemed weak and easily bullied by him, now felt as solid as bronze walls and iron bones, rendering him unable to break free.

Keira stared at him intently. “Explain.”

Jackson swallowed hard, then cursed angrily, “Keira, what are you doing? Assaulting a superior is grounds for expulsion from the Freeman Sect! Even if Elder Grant vouched for you and let you participate in the martial arts competition, you can’t lay hands on me!”

Keira kept her stare fixed on him. She had thoroughly memorized the Freeman Sect’s rules yesterday. Indeed, assaulting someone of a higher rank would result in immediate expulsion, but Keira’s grievances couldn’t just be acknowledged like this!

A fierce light flashed in Keira’s eyes, and then she slowly released Jackson’s hand she had been holding. But just as Jackson scoffed, she suddenly clutched his throat!

Her fingers were well-defined, and when she clutched his throat it made Jackson immediately fall short of breath, unable to breathe. His eyes bulged, and both hands fiercely clutched Keira’s hand, trying to push her away, but he found he couldn’t muster any strength!

Jackson struggled desperately. Keira continued to stare at him intently. “Speak. What’s your relation to Keera?”

Jackson slapped at her hands, struggling to speak, but no words came out. The feeling of death crept over him, making him panic. Seeing the threat in Keira’s eyes, he knew that if he didn’t clear her name, he might actually be choked to death right there today!

He slapped Keira’s hand again… Keira watched him closely until Jackson stuck out his tongue, then she finally let go.

Gasping for air, Jackson coughed in fear, his eyes tearing up as he said, “How can I speak if you don’t let me go?!”

Keira’s expression darkened. Jackson quickly covered his mouth. “Alright, alright, I’ll say it. Keera never seduced me. There’s nothing between us!”

Keira scoffed. “Louder!”

Jackson didn’t want to speak, but seeing Keira take a step forward again, he shouted, “Fine! I’ll say it! Keera never seduced me! There’s nothing between Keera and me! Are you satisfied now?”

Only then did Keira take a step back. Once she left, Jackson clenched his fists tightly. “Keera, how dare you show such insubordination? I’m going right to the Disciplinary Hall to tell the Elders, to seek justice from them!”

At the same time…

Elder Grant stroked his beard, standing outside the Sect Leader’s room. After hesitating for a moment, he finally knocked on the door.

The Sect Leader was in good spirits today, his eyes swollen to slits. Seeing Elder Grant, he asked, “Elder Grant, what brings you here?”

Elder Grant looked at his appearance, twitched the corner of his mouth, and then said, “Yesterday, during the Bone Assessment, I found a remarkable woman. She seems to have some similarities to the senior sister you once mentioned, so I wanted to inquire about it.”
