10:30 pm.This charity party at the Garden Hotel was finally over.Ashley walked toward the door while glancing sideways at the man beside her.He was still as reserved and cold as ever. There was still hostility in his eyes.Ashley was a little curious when she thought about how he had just played grievance in front of Lyra."Originally I thought it was because you have changed, but it turns out that you have just changed towards someone. I'm really curious. Is my cousin just acting in front of her, or does he really like her?" Melvin stood upright, as if he didn't hear her. He walked without saying a word.Being ignored, Ashley didn't feel embarrassed but continued and got into a car with him.Like a sandwich cookie, Chad sat in the middle of the two in the back row.Because Melvin himself was very much refusing to sit beside Ashley, Chad was forced to become a personal type of barrier wall.The car was fast and it only took eight minutes to get all the way to the outskirts.It was
After she finished, she violently pushed the wooden door open, and dozens of bodyguards with sharp knives rushed in, blocking the doorway with the intention to kill.Seeing this, Charlotte hurriedly got up from the ground, went around Melvin, hid behind the group of bodyguards and accused him."Melvin, you've gone crazy for that woman! I really love you, but you insist on choosing her instead of me. I'm so sad. Don't worry. When you die, I will torture her to death as soon as possible to avenge you!" Her eyes were red, and her heart was angry and hateful.Chad immediately stepped in front of Melvin in a guarded manner.Their momentum backfired and Ashley was pleased about that."I heard you were injected with a special drug by her, and you can not fight. If it is true, your little follower is not only unarmed, beats 10 people, but also protect you. It's too laborious."Indeed.With Melvin's current physique, he can't even fight one not to mention ten people.If they really fought, he
With a command, more than forty men rushed up on both sides.Lyra's face was solemn. She grabbed Eleven and Twelve's hands and whispered, "I have informed Keith. You are not allowed to fight with your lives. I want you both to live!"Just now, she took advantage of the time when talking to the killers, and quietly sent a message. Within ten minutes at most, Keith's people will definitely arrive.Eleven and Twelve heard this and were determined to fight for their lives to protect her and rush up to the killers.Because of wearing a hip skirt, it was not convenient for Lyra to even lift her legs.Immediately, she tore off a small strip of fabric to stop the bleeding in her right shoulder with the fastest speed.While doing this, a killer rushed up to cut her down.She quickly dodged sideways and raised her twelve-centimeter high-heel to kick the killer's leg. Instantly, the man's face went pale with pain. Before he could react, Lyra slashed him with her hands viciously. Forty against th
Keith lowered his head and fell into a very serious contemplation.After thinking about it, he shook his head."No, you know dad is not young. when you were born, dad was not young already at that time. Claudia has asked around for prescriptions over the years, but I haven't heard of she's pregnant." Claudia Craig, her stepmother, was just three years older than her, so Lyra and her had always been at odds, and whenever they were together, they usually argued with each other. Lyra pondered.She had a hunch that the thing she was stranded in Frayton after she lost memory years ago had something to do with the little girl in her mind.But again, she couldn't remember anything.She had to slowly check this matter later.Now she can only put it aside for a while."Keith, what did you do with that group last night?"Keith was silent.When he arrived last night, they almost finished fighting, and it was Melvin who arrived first with his men.He cleaned up the mess, leaving a few killers who
Melvin's voice was hoarse and he didn't want to talk, so he rolled over and went back to sleep.He arrived last night just in time to hear Lyra yelling, and watched her jump into the river.The feeling of losing control that was driving him crazy made him felt suffocated.He just thought of it and it made his heart twinge unbearably.He would never let this happen again!Chad saw that he was ignoring himself and knew that he was simply not listening.He had worked for Melvin for so many years. And it was the first time for him to see Melvin was so desperate for her."Boss, take a good rest. Call me if something happens. Don't hold yourself up."Chad sighed helplessly, poured him a cup of warm water and placed it on the bedside table. Then he turned around, went out and closed the door for him. Melvin's body was still burning. His brain was already groggy, and he soon fell asleep again.The villa was silent and dark late at night.Chad made his way downstairs to the basement. There was
Lyra watched him as she put on her slippers.Then she took off her windbreaker jacket and handed it to him.Melvin froze for a second. His long curly eyelashes were slightly drooping.He dutifully took the jacket Lyra handed to him and helped her hang it on the coat rack.He never took the initiative to say a word, which was completely unlike his usual deliberate attentiveness.Lyra's face grew sullen.Melvin, who was unaware of it, turned his head to glance at the clock on the living room's wall.It was almost noon.He consciously went to the kitchen to cook.Lyra was sitting on the sofa in a dominant way. Her red lips were slightly raised. she opened her mouth, and what she said was with indifferent tone that was not allow others to put in a word."Come here."Melvin's broad back stiffened and he dutifully twisted around to stand at her heels.She didn't look up, and her expression was a little cold, "I remember you said yourself that you won't let me look up."Melvin stood still an
Before Ashley's mother, Elizabeth Scott, came downstairs leisurely, Lyra and her group had entered the garden, and there were so many people that they filled the entire courtyard to capacity. The bodyguards at the door wanted to stop them, but they looked small and helpless under the momentum of this large group of people, and could not resist.Lyra had someone bring in a chair from the garden and sat casually and lazily in the middle of the garden.Melvin went to the Harrington family's backyard to pick some oranges from the tree and stood by to peel them for her quietly.As soon as Elizabeth came out of the villa, she was dumbfounded to see the situation.But she had been at the helm of the Harrington Group for many years, her ability to stay composed and sophisticated was excellent."Guys this is..."Before she finished her words, she suddenly noticed the orange in Melvin's hand and her face was livid furiously, "Oh, Melvin! This is the Harrington family's wealthy fruit. You can't
Memories of shame were evoked.She glared at Lyra, and her features were grim with hatred."How do I know where the person are? Even if I know, I won't tell you! I'm still waiting for the person to get you killed!""No?"Lyra's voice was softer, but her eyes were cold."Then how do we start?"She thought for a moment. The dagger left Ashley's chin and slowly moved to her right shoulder, "The day my car exploded and the pieces of it accidentally cut my shoulder. That's where to start." Ashley's face was colorless with fear and her eyes were terrified as she shook her head desperately, "No! This has nothing to do with me! It's obviously your own carelessness ... ah!" A miserable scream pierced the sky.Lyra's hands were up and down, cold-blooded and ruthless.Ashley was shivering with pain, breaking into cold sweat. The blood from her shoulder was gurgling and oozing, and was staining her white dress.She glared reluctantly at Lyra, "Wait for me! You bitch! I won't let you go!""Still h
Malcolm's mind was blank.Mel?He never thought that the word would come out of Lyra's mouth. Was she shouting at him when he was Melvin?Did this prove that she actually still had at least a touch of affection for him?His heart was in turmoil. After vacillating for a while, he finally decided to muster the courage to speak."Lyra, I actually ..."Not waiting for him to finish, Lyra, who was sleeping on the bed and whose face was red, indignantly grabbed his cuffs."Melvin! If you dare to lie to me again, I'll see your corpse! I'll dig your grave! I'll dig out your coffin and flog your corpse for 300 times!"So cruel...The words that he just wanted to say were instantly choked back.Being dejected, he sat on the edge of the bed, contemplating.Lyra didn't love him anymore, and he knew it all along.As her ex-husband, his only role seemed to be a tool used by her for blame-shifting.If Lyra knew that he had made a huge lie, she would abhor him and never give him another chance, right
Malcolm held his breath and turned his eyes back gently.Lyra was sitting on a sofa by the window, with her back to him, sipping wine.He clenched his palms so tightly that they were sweating. He was thinking. Could she possibly be drunk again?Will she be as gentle with him again as it was the other night?"I don't think I know Mr. Malcolm, but you have actually tried to get engaged to me. About this, don't you think you should give me an explanation?"Malcolm was twisting the door's handle and felt desperate.Because Lyra spoke clearly and smoothly and her breath was steady, it was estimated she was not drunk yet!Then wouldn't he be finished tonight?But he hasn't figured out how to face her ...He quickly walked towards the window and tried to jump out of it and run away.Lyra's careless voice came, "Rudolph ordered in advance to lock the window. I heard it is still bulletproof glass. You can't break it. Just talk. Are you afraid of what?" This time, he can't run away and can't av
Lyra was full of doubts.While she was lost in thought, the old Mr. White was still saying, "... Malcolm the boy is really taken with you, but Lyra you've been back for a few days. Have you two met? What was your first impression of him?""No yet, Rudolph."Lyra took advantage of the situation, "I've been asking someone to ask Mr. Malcolm to meet me for the past few days, but he seems to be intentionally avoiding me, so I haven't seen him."The old Mr. White's expression grew grave, "I can't believe this is happening!"He beckoned Charles, his butler, and ordered in a deep voice, "Get Malcolm over here."Yes."Lyra was smiling and chatting with the old Mr. White.Ten minutes later, Charles came in."Master, he doesn't come tonight. He said he went on a mission.""Which mission in the past two days is so urgent? It's worth him leaving his fiancée's welcoming party behind? This brat!"The old Mr. White stomped with the cane. With Lyra here, he can not scold him too much but reassured he
Violet the shit!He would never do anything to force Lyra unless she volunteered.And, it was Lyra who was violet last night!!!Malcolm was beaten up last night, and now his back was still hurting, so he can't be the only one who was miserable.He coldly glanced at Chad, "just the words. One word. Deduct a month's salary. You count yourself.""Huh?!"Jesus! Chad's expression can not be more bitter.That sentence just now was so long, so wouldn't he have to work for a year for nothing?His boss was ruthless and unreasonable!He was drowning in grief and froze in place.Malcolm had a wicked smile, turning his head to leave. Although the back and neck were painful, he still walked as fast as he could, glowing. He seemed to be in a very good mood.Chad chased after him while wailing, "Boss, I'm taking trash! Give me a chance to make up for my mistake!"...Lyra hadn't slept soundly for a long time.She slept until 9:30 when she was awakened by the ringing of the phone."Baby, for last nig
Malcolm was kicked so hard in the side of his back by her foot that he cramped up in pain.He covered the side of his waist. Before he could endure the sharp pain in his back, Lyra moved quickly, took a decorative vase on the bedside table, and tried to smash it on his head.Malcolm hastily clutched his head and arched his back.He did not fight back, did not dodge and let her beat him.The vase Lyra was holding hit him on the back three times in a row.Because she was dizzy, the force of her hands was not great.But the hard vase smashed into the backbone and it still hurt.Malcolm was going to have a psychological disorder.He was depressed thinking that in the future, he would never put anything on his bedside table that could be used as a murder weapon!After a few smashes, as if she was not relieved, Lyra knocked the vase onto the corner of the table. And the vase was shattered with pieces. Then she picked a sharp shred and swung it viciously at him. "Lyra!"Malcolm had to duck f
Garrett was wronged, but was upset when confronted with Malcolm's questioning and forcibly snatching her away from him."You're suspecting me of drugging? I, Garrett do not care to do this kind of dirty things. It's Lyra, she is in a bad mood. I accompany her drink only. She is drunk. I have to take her back to rest." He stepped forward to snatch Lyra back, but Malcolm sidestepped, holding Lyra tightly in his arms."Don't bother. I'll take care of her."Garrett looked gradually serious, "From what you said, you like Lyra too?""Right."Garrett was annoyed.It was hard to get rid of Melvin, and now there was Malcolm in the way."You hug her like this. It's not good. Lyra is only back to Suham recently. She seems to be not familiar with you, but I am with her from childhood. You'd better give her to me."He was about to go for a hard grab when Chad stopped him, "Mr. Frazier, behave yourself. Miss Lyra is engaged to Mr. Malcolm. It makes sense for him to take care of Miss Lyra." "Engaged
The Vincent family panicked at the same time."Reginald, I'm your brother. I've been following the rules for decades. I've only done wrong this once. You can't be so cruel. You can't throw my family out!"The three of them simultaneously fell at Reginald's feet and begged for mercy with tears in their eyes.The one side was his own brother, and the other was his daughter. Reginald grimaced and looked at Lyra."Baby, what do you think they should be punished?"Lyra barely thought about it, "By the rules."Joanna stood up and glared at her, "Lyra! You're so cruel! You're standing here unharmed. Why do you have to be so cold-blooded to your relatives!" Lyra's expression went cold almost instantly.The reason she was now unharmed was because a man helped her with the pain.They deserved more for hurting him!When she looked at Joanna, her eyes were icily cold, "If I am the one caught murdering my relatives today, will you let me go?"Joanna and Caden looked at each other and replied in un
Hanging up the phone, she ordered about the decoration stuff and went back to Lloyd's Parlor.But she parked her car halfway up the hill, where Keith had previously given her the spare key to his villa.She went inside to get some things before heading to the hall at a leisurely pace.Just after arriving at the hall, she was even a few meters away from the entrance and heard the cries of Vincent's daughter-in-law Joanna Palmer. "Reginald! As you can see, Vincent's face has been ruined by Lyra. You can't be partial to her this time!"Their son, Caden, was also indignant: "Reginald, Lyra has gone too far this time.Reginald sat in his wheelchair and was silent amid the accusations of the Vincent family.Douglas sighed, looking like he wanted to say something but couldn't.Reginald noticed and asked, "What do you think?""I don't dare.""It's okay. I'm here. Don't worry."Douglas thought about it, "I think we can't just listen to their words on this matter. Since Vincent accused Miss, he
Lyra thought this was a very pertinent statement.In the White family where the traditional thinking dominated, Malcolm was now in charge. Naturally they believed in these divination things.With a sincere face, she waited quietly for Malcolm to answer.Malcolm, behind the back of the chair, wiped the spilled coffee stains from his thin lips, and his whole body regained its noble and distinguished aura."Miss Lloyd, in fact, the witch told me my fortune too. She said that I have a strong body and I am tough. And I'll conquer those women who hurt their future husbands. You and I are really a perfect match." Lyra was speechless for a moment. She was smiling, but in reality, her heart was already rising with anger.She gritted her teeth and her voice was delicate, "That's quite a coincidence!"Malcolm lowered his head, but put down the cup of coffee, but did not dare to drink again.Lyra did not want to leave without accomplishing anything, and continued to make more and more nonsense."
