The next day, White Corp.Chad, being depressed, walked into the president's office. Yesterday, he had been Suham's major horse ranches, finally found a whip that tamed wild horses especially, and placed it to Malcolm's desk."This horsewhip is very rough. Boss, be careful."Malcolm thought about it and put his things away.Chad was very uneasy and reminded him again, "Boss, if Miss Lyra really beat you tonight, don't just endure it. You can pretend that you're wronged and shout in pain. And make some tears to let her feel sorry for you."Malcolm nodded and didn't say anything, still trying to figure out how to explain it in the evening.Chad looked at him. Clearly, his boss was not taking his words to heart, which made him anxious!But on second thought, if his boss was not afraid of being beaten, what was the use that he was anxious and stomped?Lyra went to the Angle Group during the day as usual to continue her preparations.After a calm and busy day, Collin finished the research
"You even prepare the beaten things in advance. That's thoughtful of you, Malcolm. You think you are now more precious than before, so I don't dare to beat you?"Malcolm lifted his face to see her. His eyes were read, showing his grievance, "In front of you, there is no the man in power of White Corp. There is no Mr. Malcolm. I make you angry and you should beat me." Now the acting was much better than last night."Then I'll make your dream come true!"She raised the whip and her eyes were fierce.She had an urge to beat him until there was blood oozing in his body, and until he crawled and wailed to her for mercy!But when she really did this, she instinctively wasn't at her all strength. She whipped him twice and all landed on his left arm."Does it hurt?" Her eyes were icy cold which was unabated.Malcolm's brows furrowed lightly, and the trembling of his entire arm was controlled by him in the smallest of arcs.He quietly took a deep breath and his dark eyes contained a smile, "It
Lyra's eyes were firm, "Yes Rudolph, I don't think Mr. Malcolm and I will be a good match. He ... and I could be friends later on if there is an opportunity." The old Mr. White was still surprised that she would suddenly make such a decision, "Lyra, did Malcolm bully you? You can tell me, and I'll help you fix him!" "No, he wouldn't dare to bully me. It's just that I ..."Fifteen minutes later.Lyra came out of the old Mr. White's villa with a sullen look on her face, and Fifteen was waiting for her at the door.When she came out, he rushed forward and asked, "How is it going? Does he agree?"Lyra's eyes drooped in depression and she shook her head gently.The old Mr. White analyzed with her the advantages and disadvantages. The marriage between she and Malcolm was not ordinary. There were many factors involved. It was a business alliance by marriage.If they canceled the engagement after only two days, it would have been a huge financial loss and arouse public opinion for both White
Lyra's tears fell even harder, and she couldn't stop them.She grabbed his hand and yelled at him, "Malcolm, you're not dying! If you die, I'll find another man and marry him right now! I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life!"Malcolm's bloodied lips curled in a grim smile."That...no, you're my ..."She cried and laughed, and hurriedly looked to the medical staff on either side, "I'm already here. Get him inside!"Malcolm still took her hand and refused to let go, "Rara, you...listen to me explain, OK ...""You need the surgery. I'll be right outside. When you come out, I'll listen to your explanation."Malcolm's face was so pale that he was losing blood and could not delay any longer.But he still stubbornly took her hand and did not let go. He wanted to see her properly again. He might die on the operating table. Perhaps he did not have the opportunity to wake up again.Lyra looked distressed and could only forcibly break his hand and watched him being pushed into the em
Chad hastily slapped his face to stop himself from imagining.This was the first time he followed Miss Lyra alone. Maybe that was her character, and he should trust her feelings for his boss!However, he should never let his boss know these details!In the bedroom.Lyra gently wandered the sharp part of the dagger over Travis' face, moving all the way down his neck and finally stopping at his heart.Travis was shuddering. He was terrified that the dagger would pierce his skin in the next second.There was some kind of weird and eerie aura in this room, which overwhelmed him.Seeing that he was so scared, Lyra sneered, "It's just a dagger and you're scared like this. You're just a weakling and dare to fight with my Mel?"Travis seemed to be stimulated by what she said so his fear was reduced a lot.Because he knew in his heart that Lyra would not dare and could not kill him in the White Manor.Seeing that he calmed down a bit, Lyra guessed what he was probably thinking, "That's right.
She helped Malcolm to the bed and tucked him in.But he had just finished surgery, his body was weak. And after standing in the corridor for more than half an hour, his body was cold.Lyra helped him turn the heat on and sat right next to his bed.She poured him a cup of hot water and handed it to him, saying, "Many things were explained to me in detail during your surgery by Chad, so I don't need you to explain them again. But I have a few doubts that I need you to answer."Malcolm nodded his head."Why are you Melvin? And if you are Malcolm, where is the real Melvin?"Malcolm clutched her small hand and felt her warm palm before he began speaking, "Do you remember what I told you about that car accident 13 years ago?""Yes.""The real Melvin died when he was 15 years old because he saved me. At that time, the White family was in chaos. I was young and there was no way to contend against my uncle Kacper. Melvin was sent to the National Investigation Bureau from childhood by his grand
He spoke in an upturned tone and was in an extraordinarily good mood.It was as if he was a piece of art carefully sculpted by Lyra.And his eyes seemed to say, "Look! This is what my wife did. Isn't it cool?"Ahem, beautiful!" Chad gulped, nodded heartily, and exclaimed, "Miss Lyra, truly brave!"Satisfied, Malcolm buttoned up his shirt to cover those ambiguously sweet marks.Chad saw that he was in such a good mood, so he hurriedly took credit, "Boss, I made contribution, right? Miss Lyra was so moved by my emotional performance at night. I can make up for it this time." He was previously deducted for two years and one month's salary!"Very well."Malcolm curved his lips. His black eyes were the ultimate in reserved arrogance, "I'll return your two years and one month's salary, plus six months of bonus."Chad was cheering and roaring inside.Oooh, Boss was the best! Boss was the most understanding leader in the world!Still, Chad was worried about his health."But Boss, don't do thi
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry. It's my first time to pass on a message. Please don't take it personally." Tom originally relied on the fact that he was Travis's man and didn't put the two in his sights.Who knew that Malcolm did not say anything. And Lyra directly berated him who was dumbfounded by the fierce and looked at Malcolm's back in a much more respectful way.Lyra was defending for him, and Malcolm was so happy that he just played nice, "I'll be back in two hours from the drip.""Okay." Tom added before he left, "Miss Lloyd is your fiancée, so if it's convenient, you can come back to the hall together too.""Hmm."Malcolm answered softly, and when the door closed again, he was about to put his head in Lyra's arms again when his cheek was grabbed by Lyra's fingers."Hiss! Rara don't ..."He could bear the pain and his features were distorted, not hiding.Lyra felt helpless and her hand unconsciously loosened, "OK, Malcolm, you're mean enough. Let me play tough and you play good?""No,
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
