Anthony, who was drinking tea, paused after hearing what she said. His deep and blue eyes were hidden under the long eyelashes. No one can guess his emotions.Lyra just pretended not to see his obviously upset expression and continued to ask tentatively."When you're in Crana, you're at least the fourth son of the Callahan family, a large and powerful family. Who are you here? What makes me believe you can get the real serum for me?"Anthony took an unhurried sip of tea and set his cup down before saying, "I'm here. It's true that I'm nothing in this country, but I have a mother who is a Princess."Lyra froze. Originally she thought he would hide it from her but did not expect him to be so straightforward to confess.He continued, "You just came here. You don't understand the situation in European Swye. My mother is the only sister of the current king. She got high status but did not raise me all these years. She is guilty and promises me a request. So to get that super virus serum is
When Collin came in carrying the feather duster, Micah glanced at the appalling murder weapon in his hand with little expression, seemingly being supportive.Keith, who was on the bedside, however, was terrified and immediately got up to stop his brother."Collin, don't! Don't beat him! He has a fever. He's at his weakest. You're too angry to control your strength. What if you kill him, how will you explain when Rara comes back?" Anytime when he used Lyra as the excuse, it always worked best.Collin's sanity picked up quite a bit.But before he could quite put down the duster he was holding up, Malcolm, who was on the bed, spoke coldly."With the old grudge between you and me, what's the use of just beating me up to take out your anger? Just beat me to death if you have the guts."This was a naked provocation!Collin's anger drifted upward. He was more furious than ever before."Okay, I'll help you achieve your aim. If I don't beat you to death today, my last name is not Lloyd!""Coll
Malcolm felt so bitter that he couldn't even speak. He drank the entire glass of water before the bitter taste in his mouth subsided a bit.Just taking the medicine, his remaining physical strength was consumed. He leaned weakly on the bed, with his eyelashes fluttering lightly and sickly. Keith tucked him in. As an afterthought, he rolled up his sleeve to check the red mark on his arm."Look, I'm taking the beating for you. It's swollen."When he finished his words, he remembered that Malcolm's eyes were blind, so he grabbed Malcolm's wrist to put it on his arm."You can feel it. It's swelling badly. If you make a fuss again, won't you feel sorry for me?!"Malcolm didn't hesitate to draw back his hand, "I don't have the habit of touching men." Keith laughed at that and scoffed him, "So, you only have a habit of touching women?" "I won't touch any woman except Rara."He said this with little hesitation. His face looked resolute and extraordinarily serious.Keith nodded and was quite s
Lyra froze slightly.She was not here to meet her future mother-in-law, so why should she dress up?But scrupulously, she had to continue to talk to Anthony, so she just said politely, "I didn't bring many clothes with me this time when I went abroad. And I didn't have anything more suitable." Listening to her explanation, the loss in Anthony's eyes gradually faded and turned a bit chagrined."I'm sorry. It's my negligence. I should have prepared the right dress for you in advance. Lyra, don't be angry with me. It won't happen next time."Lyra looked away, "It's okay. No need to apologize.""Come on. Let's go in first. I'll show you around. I'll have the gown delivered by noon, and then we'll go to my mother's place for lunch."Anthony smiled, looked deeply and obsessively into her face, and offered to take her hand.Before he could touch her, Lyra wrinkled her brows slightly, and her right hand reacted instinctively to dodge back.This action was as if to stimulate Anthony's sensitiv
On the way to Arzew Palace, Anthony had everything set up.In the room, there was a noble chaise lounge draped in a white fur blanket. And there were exquisite pastries, fruit, snacks, honey and tea on a coffee table.Next to it were three rows of hangers, all hanging with various styles of exquisite dresses. And there were two rows of high heels on the plush carpet.The stylists and makeup artists had been waiting for a long time.When they saw Anthony enter with Lyra, the two saluted them with standard courtly etiquette.Lyra wasn't too happy, "I'm not used to changing clothes and doing makeup by others."Anthony immediately waved his hand at the two men, "You can leave.""Lyra, this is European Swye's special pastry. It's very delicious. I had it made and delivered here. Do you want to try it?" He walked over to the coffee table, attentively carried the pastry plate and handed it to Lyra.Lyra glanced at it. Not knowing what was going on, not only did she not have an appetite, but
She was standing in the doorway seeking a solution when Anthony suddenly ran wildly out of the palace.Seeing that Lyra hadn't left, his face was filled with the joy of having lost and found. Without saying a word, he walked up and held her wrist tightly. "What are you doing?"Lyra looked at her hand, was confused for a second, and then raised her head to see his tearful blue pupils.This was the first time she saw Anthony's sad face.The tearful blue eyes were unexpectedly clear and sincere, which made him become quite a different person.Ignoring the presence of Chad, Anthony choked with sobs and pleaded."Lyra, I'll reflect on what you just said. And I'll change it all! You can give Malcolm a chance. Can you give me a chance too, please?"Lyra gazed at him without speaking.Anthony's eyes were sincere, "I will prove to you that I am the man who loves you the most in this world! We're here. My mother is still waiting for us to come over for lunch, so don't leave, okay?" Lyra glanced
On the way back to the Duke's houseCaesar sat in the car, and still reminisced about the meeting he just had with Lyra."Father, I seem to know what love at first sight feels like. I just saw Miss Lyra, and my heart actually fluttered. I think I'm in love with her, and I want to chase her!"Harrod stroked his beard and said in an old-fashioned way, "Not her. I heard your mother some time ago. Charles Lance brought a girl back and is going to get married. It should be her."Caesar's expression was lost, "So, she's kind of the brother's fiancée?""Shut up! Charles Lance is just illegitimate. He's not your brother, and I could never accept his existence."At the mention of this, Harrod's fists clenched and his anger wafted through the car.Caesar was most afraid of his father's anger. He shrugged and pondered before saying, "But I think Miss Lyra, she does not like Charles. Just now she looked at me as if she was begging for help. She looks like she's forced.""It's none of your busines
Lyra didn't care too much and quickly laid down on the bed.Within minutes, she fell into a deep sleep.The next day, afternoon time in Crana.After several days of targeted medication, Micah opened the curtains in the master bedroom and turned back to ask Malcolm, who was sitting on the edge of the bed."How are you feeling? Can you see some objects?"Malcolm's dark eyes rolled, groping aimlessly in the darkness. Then he shook his head.Keith, who was standing aside, was unwilling to give up, "You can feel it again. You really can not even feel a little light?"Malcolm shook his head again, lowered his eyes, and stopped struggling."Micah, what should we do? How about have a surgery?"Micah's expression was serious, "His condition is different from the normal blindness."He pondered for a moment before continuing, "Take another trip to the lab and do a full body test on him. I need to see how the virus has spread so I can decide on his treatment later.""Go to the lab?" Keith became
Gavin's smile froze and his hands nervously gripped his legs as he hurriedly explained."How can I put something in the wine? You and I are already an unmarried couple. Isn't it superfluous for me to do so? Besides, the wine was prepared by the hotel." Abigail narrowed her eyes, "It'd better be true."She swirled the wine in her glass and held it close to her lips.Just as she was about to drink, the door to the private room was opened and a pair of large, warm and broad hands took away the glass she was holding.She looked up inexplicably.It was Micah."Why are you here?"Micah did not say anything, brought the glass to the tip of his nose and sniffed gently. Then he glanced at the man in the seat next to him.Gavin swallowed and held his breath: "Who are you? This room has been booked by me. You are trespassing. Please get out!"He got up and grabbed the glass of wine Micah was holding.Micah took a step back and splashed coldly the whole glass of wine directly into his face withou
Katelyn had never thought about it in her life.Micah Lloyd, the son of the Lloyd family, who was famous in Suham, asked her to borrow money.And, for only twenty dollar...She always felt something odd, but she still rummaged through the designer purse.However, she couldn't find a twenty dollar bill in her purse, but a hundred dollar.She froze and the atmosphere was quiet for a few seconds.With Micah's gaze, she could only smile awkwardly, "Mr. Micah, please wait a moment."She got up and went to the housekeeper. Finally, she got the twenty dollar from the housekeeper and handed it to him.Micah took it and put it in his pants pocket and said politely, "Thanks a lot."As expected, he borrowed the money and went out the door without stopping for a moment.He arrived at the Jana Grand Hotel as fast as he could shortly after Abigail left.But he stood in the doorway and did not enter.Abigail was inside having lunch with her fiancé. In what role should he take to go in to her?In whi
For as long as she had known Micah, he had always been incredibly noble, cold and arrogant at any time when she saw him.She had never seen him drenched, even his short hair looked like he just got out of the shower.She stared at him in shock, "How do you..."Micah's lips were pale and he smiled gently.The smile was very slight.But it was like the melting of ice and snow formed in winter, and the warm sun after storms.Abigail's heart abruptly missed a beat, and her eyes quietly reddened uncontrollably.He just... actually smiled at her?This had been the most extravagant thing she had ever wished for.Unfortunately, now, she didn't care.She lowered her eyes and stopped looking at Micah, hiding the sudden surge of bitter emotions.Micah's smile faded and he returned to his cold eyes as usual.Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit embarrassed, Katelyn cheerfully explained, "Abigail, Mr. Micah came to Frayton on a business trip. There was a small accident on the way. His cell phone a
Micah found an awning of a closed store on the side of the road, sheltering himself from the rain. He roughly estimated the distance to the Matthews House, and the distance back to the hotel.In the end, it turned out that both sides took about the same amount of time.He decisively rushed into the rain and ran wildly in the late night rainstorm.An hour later, he hadn't arrived at the Matthews House.Before he came out, he looked at the map twice. It was so dark outside. He ran with his memory, and didn't know which street was wrong, and ended up lost.At three or four o'clock, there was no car on the street, and there was no one as well.Neither could he go back to the hotel, nor could he find the Matthews House.He was alone in the pouring rain, like an isolated little wretch.He planned to pretend to be miserable but it turned out that he was really miserable.The next morning, it was breezy and peaceful in Suham.After Melissa finished her breakfast, she called Shane with a sense
At the same time, in Keith's Villa.The bedroom was messy.The white gauze curtain was closed, and there were small and yellow colored lights on it, adding a few romantic and warm colors.Keith lay mesmerized on top of Melissa. He was panting slightly, and the back of his hand gently caressed the delicate skin of her cheek. He asked with his magnetic and titillating voice, "Do you still want to break up?"Melissa meekly shook her head, "Not any more. I'm not willing now."Being satisfied with her answer, Keith kissed her again on the lips.She pushed her away and whispered, "No, I'm so tired."Keith rolled over and leaned over the bed. A blanket covered his naked lower body, and his abs were soaked in thin sweat, which was sexy.He hugged Melissa up into his arms and got back to the business, "Melissa, I want you to face your inner fears and try to make a few trips back to the Callahan Residence.""I admit I am selfish. If you are announced the daughter of Callahan family, we are marr
Lyra got a little annoyed and knocked on the side of the bed, "After the punishment, and you can explain it all over again."Malcolm felt suffocated, pursed his lips not to speak, and looked at her with hidden bitterness in his dark eyes.She tapped the edge of the bed with the ruler, and reminded again coldly, "You have forgotten the fifty family instructions Micah gave you earlier again?" Malcolm, who was completely mute, struggled for a while, spread out the palm of his left hand and handed it over.Lyra shook her head and was not satisfied, "Both hands.""Rara, I have to sign a contract at work tomorrow." If she hurt his right hand, he couldn't write well.Lyra's face was expressionless and she was unswayed, as if to silently remind him that there was no negotiation.Malcolm was stimulated by her look and handed his right hand over, getting in a rage.Snap-The ruler came down at both of his hands directly for three times.His broad palms instantly swelled with deep red bumps.Mal
She turned her head and headed inside the villa, leaving the party to Malcolm.Malcolm was struck by her slightly reproachful look, and left the outside to Chad for the time being, following her into the villa.In the third floor's nursery, there were two delicate and lovely cribs in the middle. One was pink and the other was blue.Lyra walked over to check on them, but the pink crib was empty with no trace of Molly. Sophia was here too.All that remained was Spencer on the blue crib.Lyra gasped, and all sorts of bad presentiment came to her mind.She turned her head and was about to go out to look for someone when she bumped into Malcolm who came in after her and grabbed him by the collar, "Malcolm, where's Molly?"Malcolm was slightly stunned, "I just came out. Molly has fallen asleep. Rara, take it easy ..."Lyra's eyes were red, and she grabbed his collar with fierce, glaring at him, "Malcolm!His face went wan and he was stunned for a while.Lyra had ... not looked at him with t
Keith noticed that Jalen kept glancing at them in the rearview mirror, and he looked at him with his stern eyes.Jalen instantly wimped out and helped lower the flap that separated the front and rear seat.He'd better not look at or listen to them!*The moment the flap was fully lowered, Keith raised his palm up and slapped behind her with undiminished force.It scared her!Melissa was tearful. Her upper body was on his lap and her waist was pressed by his palm, being unable to move.Being confused for a while, she gradually understood what was happening, suddenly wanted to cry, and her heart was incomparably hurt."Keith you... nearly beat me!"Keith sighed and explained in a serious manner, "It's a punishment. It's based on the fact that I love you. You're unreasonable, and this is the only way I can punish you to sober you up!" "But why?" She bit her lower lip tightly.Noticing the sobbing in her voice, Keith's large palm caressed her buttocks and he gently massaged for her."Just
Lyra and Malcolm paid extra attention to recruit a nanny because of Lola, and even the family background and experience were screened. Finally, they selected a very kind and middle-aged woman named Sophia Ward, who was generally preferred to be called Sophia.With Sophia as the nanny, Malcolm was finally liberated and lived a much more comfortable life.The days of peace and enjoyment passed quickly.In a flash, it was time for the babies' christening and Lyra was recovering well.At the christening ceremony, their friends came here and all gathered around the two little babies, praising them and fondling them.Lyra instructed Malcolm and Sophia to keep a close eye on the babies and never left them more than a meter away.They were like rare animals, who were allowed to see but not to touch, not to mention the hug.She, herself, came out to greet the guests at the door.Shortly after, Keith, who was dressed up, arrived with generous congratulatory gifts.Lyra noticed he was alone and
