Lyra's face turned pale with fear when she heard Collin's roar.It was screwed! She should have controlled herself!This was going to screw up!Malcolm did not say a word. His posture was upright and proud. He was not afraid at all, and there was a few unrepentant arrogance.He looked like this, and in Collin's eyes it was provocative.Collin was furious and made a move to pull the trigger."No, no, no! Collin, you're mistaken! It was me, I I...I slept with him!"Lyra shivered her lips in embarrassment.Malcolm's life was more important than her, of course!Collin: "?""If you don't believe me, you can look at his neck. It was me...who didn't hold back..."The more she said, the smaller her voice became, covering her cheeks in shame with hands. Her whole face and neck were burning hot.Collin, full of suspicion, with gun still in hand, slowly approached Malcolm.Malcolm didn't move, letting him lift the woolen scarf.The deep red hickeys all over his neck froze Collin in his tracks.H
"Don't..."Malcolm burrowed into her neck. His voice was weak and feeble, pouting, "I still like to hear you call me Mel."Lyra cupped his face and kissed his thin and bloodied lips without disdain, "Okay, from now on, you're the only one I'll call Mel."Malcolm's miserable pale lips were gently curled in contentment.Lyra carefully adjusted into a position to support him, "Is this okay to walk?""Yes."The two walked slowly in the direction of the car in an assisted position.Chad watched the backs of the two and froze in place.He felt like he was just redundant!They went back to the White Manor.As soon as Malcolm lay down on the bed, Lyra started to took his clothes off."Just be reserved. Let Chad do this."Lyra glared at him, "What? Afraid that if I look at your body, I'll want to eat you? Don't worry about it. You're so badly hurt. I'm not such a beast yet." "Oh, then it seems my charm is not enough."He sounded a little disappointed.Lyra pursed her lips to stifle a smile and
Lyra stared at the man who was pretending to be asleep and smiled evilly. She sounded a little regretful."I'm relieved to see you're sleeping so deeply. I've thought carefully and I think it's better to go back to Lloyd's Parlor. I'll leave it to Chad to take good care of you afterwards. See you in a couple of days." She was about to move his head away and get up.The man on his lap suddenly circled her waist with a strong force, regardless of his head into her arms."Chad is careless. Can't take care of me. Rara ..."His voice even sounded a little aggrieved.Lyra stifled a laugh and deliberately pushed him out, "That won't do. my luggage is at Lloyd's Parlor. I have to get back."Malcolm rose from her arms, grabbed his cell phone, and called Chad."Tomorrow, go to the mall to buy something. Rara's size is S size. Foot size is 34. buy those good-looking necklace, earrings and jewelry. Fill the wardrobes with clothes."After the command, he quickly hung up the phone.Lyra was still i
Chad turned his back on Lyra and instead of turning around immediately, he quietly exchanged a look with Malcolm.Lyra had a lazy expression and a confused look on her face.Just now she finished the phone call upstairs. From a distance, she heard Chad and Malcolm talking in the room, but because of the distance, she could not hear too well and only heard a relatively unfamiliar key words."Hmm?"Seeing that neither of them said anything, Lyra's eyes watched back and forth between the two.Chad turned around and saw that her expression was calm, not like she was pretending. She should not have heard much so he smiled and explained."The inhibitor is a laboratory drug. However, just now I was discussing with my boss about the National Investigation Bureau's confidential mission. It may not be convenient to disclose to Miss Lyra." "Really?" Lyra cocked her head to look at Malcolm .Malcolm nodded his head, looking natural, "You want to know? If you really want to know, I can tell you."
Malcolm was going to be pissed off to the point of angina attack.Restraint!He wanted to, but Lyra wouldn't give him the chance.He inhaled deeply and held back his anger, not wanting to get angry in front of Lyra.But Chad, as if unafraid to die, still clapped his hands in the aisle over and over again, relentlessly and very rhythmically repeating the cryptic phrases.If the fool was not still needed for the mission, he would immediately kick him out and send him to dig coal.Malcolm put up with it!Lyra was still sitting on him, excited to help him activate his blood.He brought his phone as if nothing had happened and sent a message to Chad, [clap once, deduct a thousand. Go to the financial settlement, and then now immediately get out from my villa !]The sound at the door soon died down.Malcolm's phone received a message alert, and when he looked at it, he saw that Chad had sent him a dozen messages.: (=ІДІ=)!:(T_T)It was all about crying, collapsing, and begging for mercy e
Lyra was thinking about it when a black Lamborghini came around the fountain and stopped at the entrance.A bodyguard on the front passenger seat was the first to get out of the car and helped open the door.A woman who came down from the car, wearing a mature and dignified white dress. She was tall and well-dressed.It was Kathleen.In addition to the name of Mr. Collin's wife, she was also known as the Most Charming Stewardess of the National Aviation Administration in Crana."Kathleen, what brings you here?" Lyra greeted her politely and thoughtfully."Collin went back to the Bureau of National Affairs to deal with things. I had nothing to do, so I came over to give you a hand."Seeing Lyra, she first smiled warmly and sisterly pulled Lyra's wrist, then quickly noticed the building and subconsciously looked at the time."Why don't guests come here at this hour? Who do this?"Kathleen reacted immediately.Because if no business tycoons who were invited came here, this matter will be
Those who came were all the invitees on the list.Kellie cleared her throat with a sharp eye and shouted, "Welcome Mr. Nelson from Hyatti Group, Miss McCarty from Ingenuo Entertainment, Miss Barry from Solsora, Mr. Everett from Heoufung Media ... to the Angle Group!"Businessmen valued interests most. Those who had various excuses not to come, although no one knew who asked them to do so, were scrambling to the scene at the fastest speed.The invitees all arrived in the last ten minutes, and Kathleen rushed to help Lyra.Claudia's face was livid with anger. Because too many people arrived, the door was surrounded by them with no open space.She sat in a chair, was drowned in the crowd and was squeezed into a corner.If it wasn't for the bodyguard holding her up, she would have almost fallen.Everyone was so busy being attentive to Lyra that no one cared about her.Kathleen gave her a cold look, "There are too many guests. I'm afraid Lyra and I can't take care of you. It feels bad to b
Lyra pricked up her little ears, "I can't tell. Collin is so fierce. Is he usually a meek little sheep in front of you?"Kathleen coughed twice to curb her embarrassment and nodded her head a little bit.Lyra laughed.Gosh, she can't even imagine how Kathleen was coaching Collin. It must be so much fun!"Kathleen, what are some of your best ideas? Tell me about it?"Kathleen quietly glanced at Malcolm, who was still entertaining, "You can't say I said that."Lyra was busy nodding her head.Kathleen was close to her ear and whispered, "If he is wrong in the future, you have to let him kneel on keyboard, durian and so on. You have to educate him well know, you do so... and then that ... " Lyra listened and frowned, "That would be a bit harsh?"Just kneeling on the floor had made she feel painful enough. She did not dare to imagine durian and other things at all ..."If a woman is not ruthless, her position is not stable!"Lyra silently nodded her head, feeling very reasonable. And she b
In a tense atmosphere, the doctor finally spoke up."Miss Lloyd's progesterone is elevated again. Has she been emotionally unstable lately? Are you often angry or sad and depressed?"Lyra bowed her head and didn't answer.There should be no hiding in front of the doctor.Malcolm held Lyra's hand tightly and answered for her, "Yes, there has been some unhappiness in the family lately. Her mood has not been stable and she doesn't seem to be able to control her emotions much lately. Last night it was the most obvious, because I wouldn't let her eat orange and she bit me."When he said these, his tone was low as if he was a little sad."You're mad about not eating orange?" The doctor laughed.Lyra hurriedly explained, "Because I have always bad appetite and vomit gastric acid sometimes. I feel my mouth bitter. Finally I can have my favorite fruit, but he controls me! Can't even eat one more! It makes me very aggrieved!"The more she said, the tighter her eyebrows wrinkled. Finally, she si
Countryside.Ethel had a splitting headache and woke up from her daze.In this coma, she had a long dream in which Reginald was not yet in a wheelchair and was still young.He let her ride on his shoulders and took her out to the amusement park, telling everyone in no uncertain terms that Ethel was Reginald's youngest and most beloved daughter. They had a great time and her dreams were all about laughter.But...Her vision gradually cleared and what came into view was the beams of a simple house in the countryside with a dim lamp over it.No Reginald, no amusement park, there was just endless torture ahead.Her dream was shattered and she was completely awake.Reginald would never wake up. She made Claudia push him down, and even if he lived, there was no way he would want to disclose her identity.After all, it was a dream.She laughed, which was a mocking for herself.Cerys was sitting right next to her, leisurely crossing his legs and having snacks again."You're awake? With the do
Collin had a rare and different expression. Turning his head to look at him, he did not make a sound, seemingly with a silent question in his eyes.Thinking of the warn Malcolm had just sent him in a message, Chad continued, "Lyra can discriminate between love and hate. Ethel has hurt her many times. The punishment is what Ethel deserves. You shouldn't come here to plead for mercy."A plea for mercy?Collin wrinkled his brows, "She doesn't hurt Ethel's life. It's good enough. I won't beg for mercy. Ethel deserves the punishment."Standing in the cold rain all night, his voice was a little hoarse when he opened his mouth.Chad was silent, and seeing that he was thinking straight this time, he went on to say."Ethel was sent to the countryside to work as a farmer. After the labors, she'll receive ten lashes and then recite the Buddhist Scriptures on her knees all night. She can't rest until she finishes reading them. That book is perfect for confession of sins. Mr. Collin, what do you t
Collin was here?The atmosphere in the bedroom became serious almost instantly.Lyra hardly had to think about it, "Just tell him I'm asleep. I don't have time to see him, and I don't want to see him. Tell him not to come here again.""Yes."Eleven left quickly.Noticing that Lyra was in a bad mood, Malcolm hurriedly took her into his arms, kissed her, and soothed her.Not waiting for the kiss to finish, Eleven came and knocked on the door again. The sound was more anxious than last time."Miss, I have conveyed your message, but Mr. Collin still won't go. He's standing outside the gate in the rain. If you don't see him, he will probably stay wet all night."Eleven's tone sounded helpless.Malcolm looked at the non-stop heavy rain out the window, and said, "Why not see him? This rain is so cold. If he's really wet all night, it's estimated he'll have a fever and cold tomorrow." Lyra didn't say anything.After a long silence, she said, "Want to use this way to force me to feel sorry for
Fifty times of lashing and a slap from Chad. A night in the basement, and an hour's walk up the hill when she was hungry. Ethel thought for a moment that she simply couldn't resist.But the truth was that people had unlimited potential when they wanted to live.She was supervised by Cerys with a very heavy hoe and spent the whole morning digging seed pits in the field.Her body was overloaded with the exhausted feeling, but she actually got through it all and didn't faint.When it was the lunch time, she never thought that she would be like a hungry tiger pouncing on her food one day, completely disregarding her image.The rough buns in her mouth were even better than those delicacies of every kind!However, Cerys did not allow her to eat much at all. After three big buns, she took away all the dishes in front of her and told her to go to the pig pen and feed the pigs.Ethel was an illegitimate daughter, but Reginald and Collin had always been very good to her. She grew up in a life o
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
