Shuttling around from memory, she asked uncertainly, "Are you ...Rebecca?"

Rebecca Callahan, who was happy to see that she remembered her, came forward and took her arm.

"Lyra, you are so beautiful. I haven't seen you for so many years. Did you miss me?Anthony said you are in Frayton and I couldn't wait to come and visit you."

Rebecca and Anthony were half-brother and sister. She was the seventh in the of Callahan family, and she was the same as the youngest daughter, three years younger than her, and used to love to cling to her from childhood. She had a naive character but also an arrogant little princess.

She smiled and tickled the tip of Rebecca's nose, "You have grown up and is still acting like a clinger?"

Rebecca softly grabbed her arm wobbling, "Lyra, you laugh at me. It's because I like you. I still do not let others touch me. This time it is rare for me to leave home. Lyra, you have to accompany me." To accompany her?

This was not to find herself a little troublesome person?

    What was Melvin doing here?And the toast he referred to happened a long time ago, right?He remembered it well.She glanced at him.He was not the only one who came here,. Chad, Eleven, Twelve, Fifteen, Seventeen were all there.She subconsciously looked up at the second floor railing. Anthony was still leaning in place. Because of the lighting problems, she can not see his expression, but can detect that he was looking at this side.The man who made the toast was fierce by Melvin and looked at Lyra innocently, "This lady, I didn't mean anything else. It's just a glass of wine. I don't know why this gentleman is insulting me." "That's right. It's just a glass of wine."Lyra smiled. Her slender fingers reached the wine that had been transferred to Melvin's hands.Melvin refused to give it to her. His dark eyes were gloomy, and his face was written with displeasure.Her beautiful eyes were gentle and her tone was gently coaxing, "Be a good boy. Let go and I'll accept your toast next ti

    She turned around. There was anger in her eyes and she glared over.The person who stopped her was Anthony.Anthony's eyes narrowed slightly. His expression was serious and deliberate, "Lyra, you can't use lynching in this matter. Since I am there, he should be brought back to Frayton police department for questioning.""He tried to hurt my face with acid. I just fought back. Is that not OK?"She sounded cool and tried to withdraw her hand.Anthony clutched her wrist, and his expression was still grim, "He hurt someone and should be sanctioned, but you hurt him again, you are the same. Don't you forget. This is a bar. Even if you let anybody out, there are a bunch of staff watching. All are human witnesses."Lyra was slightly stunned, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a cold smile."But I've already done it. What are you going to do?"Anthony froze for a long time before saying, "I can pretend I didn't see it and help you clean up the scene again, but you can't hit him again.

    Melvin tightened his eyebrows and glared angrily at Eleven. his dark eyes were chilling, "Did you just say Lyra went to the police department last night?" Eleven was simply speechless!It was Fifteen who called from the police department. They only said that they wanted to hide it from Melvin first, so that he could recuperate well, but the result was he caught on the spot. "Mr. Freeman, don't worry. Master Keith is in it. She'll be fine. May she just needs to do a statement, and then she'll be released."How was it possible to feel at ease?She spent last night in the police department. How cold it was inside! She couldn't sleep well at all!He turned his head and was about to go downstairs when Eleven stopped him."Mr. Freeman you can not be discharged from the hospital yet. The doctor said the fluid is not just concentrated sulfuric acid. They need to test. You have to stay in the hospital for observation!" Melvin simply ignored it.As he just walked a few steps, he suddenly the bl

    As soon as he said these words, Chad received the cold light of violent anger under Melvin's eyes.He also knew that he was too anxious and said the wrong thing, and consciously slapped his face twice heavily and bowed his head to admit his mistake, "Sorry boss, I was the one who got excited and didn't mean to curse you."He slapped his face hard and the corners of the mouth were broken, seeping a little blood.Although the eyes were red, the face was written with displeasure and not too convincing look.Melvin eased the pain in his body, and did not have the strength to argue with him. His voice was low and weak."I'll go back, but first to deal with Lyra's matter. You tell Brad to go back first, ask if there is a potion that can temporarily suppress S404. In addition, look for the special cream to get rid of scars."Chad was speechless, "Boss, you still think about whether the wound will leave scars. Is good look important? It's life that matters!"Melvin glared at him grimly. His t

    Bernard rushed to call Lyra.On the monitor, the man in ordinary uniform stood under the camera, with his back to the camera, slowly extended his right hand and gave a thumbs down gesture.After that, he left the police department, completely disappearing from all surveillance.This attitude was extremely arrogant and provocative!Bernard also checked out several other surveillance, and found only the back, or face was covered tightly by a hat and sunglasses. He was completely unable to see the face. Only the tall figure was vaguely visible.This man was not only arrogant, but also familiar with the police department's surveillance. Did the department have an inside man?Bernard looked furious, but Lyra looked smiling.This man was somewhat similar in stature to the man she met in the aisle of Fantalure Bar last night.And this action, he was deliberately mocking her.If she can't find him, her name was not Lyra Lloyd!From the surveillance room, Lyra headed straight for the door.For

    The doctor froze and didn't move.After Lyra identified herself, the doctor immediately checked Melvin's medical records on the computer."This patient is basically fine except that he has a pretty weak condition."The lab sheet was reprinted.The doctor handed it to her.She gently took it, scanned it carefully, and asked again, "And how about the injury on his back?""It is the ordinary concentrated sulfuric acid that caused the burns. If he uses the medicine for a period of time, he will be fine. Pay attention not to get wet, but... after recovering, it will certainly leave a scar. It will not look good."Lyra went over the labs again and they showed that Melvin's health was indeed fine.But can it really be that simple?Then why was Melvin so abnormal today?She always felt something was wrong, something strange, but she couldn't say it."Really? Don't hide it from me." She stared at the doctor cautiously and emphasized.The doctor's face was flat. It was not like he was lying, "Y

    Anthony froze and became serious, "I have been busy with Security Agency during the day, so I did not ask about last night's case. I really don't know, but..." He spoke with a slight pause and stared at Lyra with apologetic eyes, explaining."1"I'm sorry Lyra, I didn't stop Bernard from taking you last night because I was angry with you and caused you to suffer all night at the police department. But you have to believe that I haven't changed. I'll always be your Anthony!"In his excitement, he reached out to hold Lyra's hand."I certainly do believe you."Lyra smiled, did not move his hand back, elegantly pin down the hair, "Right, my money isin the hands of Harrington Group for too long. If I do not to get it back, I always feel upset. I need you to help me." Anthony obliged, "Of course, as long as you want to do, I will help."Lyra smiled with arched eyebrows.The two made small talk for a while longer.The meal lasted until 8 p.m.Lyra refused Anthony's ride and drove back to Sea

    He was sure Lyra, the little villain, can't take a single loss.He shook his head, secretly sighing that he must not mess with this little girl in the future.Collin on the other end of the phone was not aware that he was set up by Lyra and said seriously, "I heard from Keith that you recently find the evidence to catch the Harringtons. By the way, I help you check it Tomorrow, I'll let Keith fax it to your company computer."Lyra laughed in her heart.He will have time to do this "by the way"?It seemed to be premeditated, deliberately waiting for her to finish being punished before mentioning this.So this was sort of carrot and stick?Although it was a little unpleasant to think about, she thought of her promise to hit Collin.It was still not a loss!And there was no reason not to take the evidence delivered to her door.Lyra answered sweetly and complimented for Collin before finally ending the call.Because Melvin was in the hospital and it was late after Lyra finished kneeling,

    Ethel stared at her and stunned by her cold gaze. Uncontrollably, she was trembling and aware of a hint of danger.Seeing that Ethel was finally a little scared, she snorted lightly."Tomorrow morning, I will have you sent to the countryside residence with bodyguards to watch over you. There are former servants from our family. They will keep an eye on you day in and day out doing farm work.""Every night before sunset, you will be whipped with ten lashes, and then you will kneel in the courtyard and finish reciting a whole book of Prajnaparamita as a confession of your sins. You can rest when you have finished reading.""How do you feel about doing that every day, week in and week out? Isn't that magnanimous?"Ethel's back stiffened and her already weak face went wan little by little.She had heard of Prajnaparamita, which consisted of six hundred volumes, with a total of more than five million words. She didn't know if she could finish it in one night if she really had to read it fr

    Chad stopped the movement of his hands, raised his eyes for a moment, and received the cold and hostile warning gaze from Malcolm which scared him and his face slightly pale."No!"He was so frightened that when he swung the branch again.Ethel was in so much pain that she was twitching and was almost at her limit.Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears. She looked pitifully at Micah who was on the side couch and Keith, weakly pleading for help."Micah, Keith, help me ..."Micah looked cold. There was no trace of extra expression on his face for her cry for help.Keith looked at her and listened to the creepy sound. Then he chose to look away and ignored it.Facing with the indifferent brothers, Ethel felt disappointed and smiled contemptuously.Occasionally, she would muffle a few grunts of pain, but still didn't beg for mercy.Whoosh-With the final lashing, the last thick branch in Chad's hand was broken.He gasped slightly and was a little tired from it. Then he looked back at

    Claudia cried by her yelling and was afraid to look at the man in the bed.But Lyra was pulling her hair, and she couldn't escape.The sharp pain in her knees and scalp stimulated her nerves and she screamed. She was on the verge of tearing down her defenses."I'm not wrong! I was just trying to protect myself. It's all your fault Lyra. You caused this!""Reginald deserved what he got! I wouldn't be at Ethel's mercy if he hadn't insisted on giving you the inheritance and pushing me to the impasse!"She and Lyra had never gotten along. And Lyra had said before that once she took the inheritance, Claudia would be thrown out of the Lloyd Manor and she would never live well.Claudia had been pampered in the Lloyd Manor for so many years. If she was kicked out, it was equivalent to sentence her to death. She had no ability to survive alone and she was not going to survive! But it would be different if Ethel took the inheritance and she could still be Mrs. Lloyd in the future.She was not w

    Collin's face instantly turned pale and he was dumbfounded by Lyra's words.He didn't expect that Malcolm would give her all his property and shares for Rara, regardless of the honor and interest of the entire White Corp family.It was really ironic and funny."I'm sorry."In addition to these three words, he seemed to explain more, but all seemed to be useless.Lyra wiped away her tears and felt disappointed for Collin."Even if you don't do any of these things, it's your connivance that allows Ethel to be so reckless. Because you shield and hide the truth about her victimizing me, it makes me to live in exile in Frayton when I was fifteen and suffer for six years in the Freeman family.""This injury can't be offset by a sentence that you have punished her heavily and made her have no jobs for six months!""On the Crane Bay Bridge in Frayton, she teamed up with Caden and got forty killers on the black market to kill me, forcing me to jump into the cold water!""In Frayton's Fantalure

    In the garden, the guests' murmurs were louder, because what Lyra had said had a lot of information!In response to all the questions, Lyra glanced at Collin who was on the stage and said seriously."Collin, this is a family matter. If you don't want the Lloyd Group's stock to plummet tomorrow, or the Lloyd family to be in the headlines tomorrow with all sorts of tidbits, clear the scene immediately and do as I say!"Under the spotlight, her starry eyes stared at Collin with coolness.The guests and media on the scene got more excited, and their discussion intensified.Keith rose first to help control the scene. With his presence, the media and journalists made a fool of themselves and soon left, and the guests also left one after another under Micah's reassurance. Harvey, who was holding the documents on the stage, looked confused and looked around in confusion.Malcolm noticed that and winked at Chad and Fifteen. Both of whom quickly took the stage and directly took Harvey away from

    When they saw Micah come out, everyone gathered around.Keith asked nervously, "Micah, how's it going?"Micah lowered his head and did not say a word. His face looked flat, so that they couldn't guess whether the test result was good or bad.Seeing this expression on his face, everyone was heart-wrenching.Lyra said resignedly, "Micah, just say it. Any outcome won't be much worse than now. I can take it."Micah remained silent and walked up to Lyra. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and hugged her tightly.His ever-cold and arrogant face had a rare smile, "Rara, my most precious sister. You're the Lloyd family's most honored daughter!" Once he said these words, everyone instantly fell relieved.Only Malcolm, who looked sullen, separated the two from each other in an embrace and took back his petite fiancee with him arms. "You're adults. Pay attention to the intimacy. Don't just hug like that.""You!" Lyra helplessly gazed at the jealous Malcolm. Her small hand quietly reached i

    Seeing that it was Micah at the door, Lyra and Malcolm looked at each other. Obviously, neither of them didn't expect that it would be him. Micah's body was too wet.He was reluctant to go in and wet the carpet. So he was still standing by the door, and his usually cool eyes locked on Lyra.Lyra didn't quite understand. Remembering what happened at the Lloyd family the other day, she asked icily, "Why do you come over here without an umbrella? Is it an emergency?"Micah adjusted his breathing before saying, "Rara, I haven't come to you for the past few days because I was being watched. Tomorrow is the return party, so I have to get rid of the surveillance and sneak over."Lyra's heart softened for a moment and she turned her head to Malcolm, "Get Micah a thick bath towel and make some ginger tea.""OK."With a thick bath towel, Micah wrung the water from his body until it was half dry before entering the living room.Malcolm went to make ginger tea, and Lyra sat on the couch."Micah,

    Ethel's face froze.After a while, she could only reluctantly lower her head, "Yes.""Good girl! That's what the daughter of Lloyd family is supposed to be." Keith smiled and stroked her head.After stroking her head perfunctorily, he took the lead and turned his head away, saying resentfully, "Change your clothes back. Your face is injured. You should not be able to choose today. We can come here another day."...Lyra made her way out of the shopping district.It wasn't until she got into the car that she opened her bag again and took out a small note.This was what Keith forced into her right hand when he was helping her just now.Unfolding the note, it contained only one sentence.[Give me some time.]Lyra's brows furrowed as she gazed silently at the nice handwriting.Why should he be given time?Did he find something and was he quietly investigating?As she was thinking about it, her phone rang and it was Malcolm's calling.Once the phone was connected, his voice sounded slightl

    In front of the dress rack, Ethel was excited to show Lyra the dresses she had chosen."Lyra, they all look good to me. Which one do you think suits me better?"Lyra smiled, "You have to try them on before you know if they fit.""You're right." Ethel immediately looked to the sales, "Send those to the changing room. I want to try them on.""Okay." The sales immediately took the clothes Ethel had carefully picked out and went over to the changing room.Once the sales left, Ethel took Lyra's arm once again and smiled innocently, "To put on the formal dress is complicated. It's inconvenient for me to put it on alone. Lyra, can you go in with me and help me faster the buckle?"Lyra didn't say a word, didn't explicitly agree, and didn't refuse either.Ethel made the decision for Lyra and took her into the changing room.When undressing in front of Lyra, Ethel did not shy away as if the two were really intimate sister for many years.Lyra leaned against the wall and looked at her coldly, "Y
