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
The girl lowered her head sadly, looking as if she didn't know how to explain.Malcolm said in a heavy tone, "Forget it. Let's go back."The girl was scolded, and her little boyfriend was not happy, "You're walking out from the front. Rich people, right? She already said it was not intentional. Is it fun to be aggressive?"As he said so, he took advantage of the time when Micah and Keith were not paying attention. He quickly smashed the snowball in his hand towards Malcolm.The snowball exploded in front of Malcolm's heel, and the reserved black leather shoes were covered with snowflakes.Malcolm did not react. He was held by Keith, not looking at them from the beginning to the end.Keith was really annoyed. After entrusting Malcolm to Micah, he let the security at the entrance of the lab come out to arrest him.The two were about to run when they were caught back by security within a few minutes.Keith looked at them coldly and ordered, "Send them to the police station. They maliciou
Hearing her ask about her face, the girl covered her bandaged cheek."Hello, Miss Lyra, my name is Lola Dean. The left side of my face was caused by me. I fell downstairs two days ago. Miss Lyra, please don't worry. It will definitely not affect my working hours and this will be healed soon."Her voice was hoarse and unpleasant to hear, which was a bit harsh.Lyra wrapped her arms around the baby, patting and coaxing gently. Quickly, she did not look at her, "You're not suitable. You can leave."Chad wanted to take the girl away.The girl didn't move and asked reluctantly, "Miss Lyra, you don't even test whether I'm qualified. You don't want to hire me because of my face? So you're just judging people by their appearance?" Lyra wrinkled her brows slightly and raised her eyes to watch her again.Chad sensed Lyra's anger and hurried to pull the girl away, "What are you talking about!? I have never seen such an unreasonable job applicant! You think this is the only reason? Don't use exce
In the past, when Abigail saw him, she adored him with fondness and love.But this time, her look was extraordinarily complicated.After a long-time internal struggle, she lowered her eyes grimly and finally spoke, "Mr. Micah, I'm sorry for bothering you for most of the year before."Micah stared at her quietly, not speaking and waiting for her to say more."In the future, I probably won't even bother you again...""Because... my dad has decided that I should be engaged to the son of Weaver family."Micah's face froze. He compressed his lips and thought for half a second before saying, "Well, congratulations."These words were like tens of thousands of steel needles stabbing into Abigail's heart at the same time, causing her pain in every limbs.She suppressed the sour feeling on the tip of her nose and said strongly, "I know you never like me. That's my extravagant hope. In the future, my feelings for you will fade away little by little. I'll be completely sober and will never bother
She smiled and felt sweet in her heart.However, he still needed to check on their babies."Come on. I want to see them."Malcolm had to get up and walked over to the nurse.The nurse offered to introduce, "Mr. Malcolm, this is the baby boy and this is the baby girl."Malcolm took just one look, instantly tightened his brows, and asked incredulously, "Are they really my and Rara's babies?""Of course, you are in the delivery room. Will I switch them?"Several nurses laughed.Malcolm, however, had a serious expression.His and Rara's features, both were extremely good-looking. How the babies were so ... ugly?Their skin was red and wrinkled. They were not cute at all.Could it be that the virus in his body really affected them?The more he thought about it, the more solemn he looked.The nurse, however, held the babies and laughed happily, "Mr. Malcolm, your babies are so well behaved. Can you hold them?""No."He walked away without looking back and went back to continue accompanying
Lyra's original expression with a smile instantly froze.While they were looking at each other, Collin swallowed uneasily, waiting nervously and apprehensively.Lyra stared at him for a while before finally speaking, "I accept your apology. As for forgiveness ... I come here today just to see dad again. For everything else, I don't want to mention it."Collin looked sad.His sister was brought up by him, and he knew very well that she meant to refuse.Smoothing himself from the loss, he smiled, "Okay, I'm willing to wait until the day you can completely forgive me."Lyra stared at him and said nothing.She was about to turn her head and left the hall to check on her father when Kathleen suddenly ran all the way down from upstairs, shouting mournfully."Honey! Dad... Dad's heart rate went to zero!"These words were like a thunderclap that stunned the whole Anning Hill.Lyra's eyes instantly turned red and she ran wildly up the stairs. Collin stood up on his knees and followed.Keith, w
Late at night.In Lyre Spiti, occasionally there came with the sound of a belt hitting mixed with the muffled grunt of someone in pain from time to time, and a woman's soft laughter.In the quiet evening, these sounds mingled were especially abrupt.But it caused infinite imagination and the desire to explore.Malcolm "got what he wanted" and experienced a wedding night he would never forget.It was a little reward after lust.It was the same night that Lyra would never forget as her wedding night.Since her pregnancy, she had not done high-risk exercise programs in a long time.Tonight she rode on him, used the belt as a whip and wielded it with abandon ...Well, it was fun as hell.With this extreme eroticism, Lyra's experience was pleasurable and soothing, but Malcolm's experience sucked.In the early morning, the sunlight poured into the bedroom through the half-covered curtains, reflecting on the two good-looking and delicate sides of Lyra and Malcolm's faces. Malcolm was sleepin
Malcolm inhaled deeply, but the tip of his nose was just uncontrollably sour.For the past six months, he had a narrow escape several times, and had experienced a lot of things with Lyra. God knew how extravagant his hope was, and how much he was looking forward to getting this... The tears in his eyes were getting more and more. He bit his lower lip and nuzzled into Lyra's arms, burying his face in her shoulder.Lyra stroked his broad back, patting and coaxing.He did not look up, sobbing. After calming himself down, he said in a collected tone."It's so windy outside. It makes my eyes uncomfortable. Rara let's go back."Lyra just laughed and didn't see him through, "The wind is quite strong. It made your eyes red. If I stay for a while, I guess my eyes will be red too!"The two held hands and interlaced their fingers.On the day of obtaining the marriage license, Lyra and Malcolm kept it a secret to everyone.They did not receive any blessings and did not cause any public opinion. T
Malcolm looked up and saw her, with his dark eyes shining with delight.After a while, he lowered his eyes, "Will it be appropriate to get the certificate now? If others know it, there will be gossip.""Let's do the hidden marriage first. No one will know it. Besides, we have to make ourselves happy first. We're not doing this for others." Malcolm thought deeply for a moment, and his eyes looked elated again."You're right. We have to make ourselves happy first."He lowered his eyes and smiled cunningly, "Tomorrow is also a good day. Why don't we go to get a license in the morning tomorrow?"Lyra flicked him on the forehead, "Okay, it's up to you."Malcolm crouched in front of her. Learning the happy news that he would be her real husband tomorrow, he wrapped his arms around her calves and rested his head on her thighs. Lyra stroked the back of his head.On the bedside table, Lyra's cell phone suddenly rang.It was Twelve.A phone call at this time of night was bound to be no good.Af
Ethel looked at Keagan in shock and called out in surprise, "Keagan, what did you do?"Because of the Buddhist Scriptures, her voice, which sounded good before, was dry and hoarse.However, when Ethel called his name, Keagan felt his whole heart warm.Even if his furious mother would find out afterwards and have to hang him up and beat him to death, he thought it was worth it."I went to town yesterday in accordance with your instructions. I quietly bought two packs of drugs. Twelve and Fifteen have been drugged by me. You can run away now!""I put many drugs. They will have to wake up at least tomorrow at noon. By that time, I'm afraid you've already escaped to the town!"Looking at his silly and honest face, which looked sincere, Ethel had a complicated feeling inside."Your mother has said that I am a bad woman with a poisonous heart. Aren't you afraid that after I run away, I will come back to take revenge on your mother in the future?"Keagan looked at her and shook his head firm
Half an hour later.Lyra and Malcolm went back to the Lloyd Manor together at Anning Hill.Micah and Keith hadn't arrived yet. And Kathleen was pacing back and forth in front of the door, seemingly waiting for them.As soon as she saw them get out of the car, Kathleen immediately ran over, "Lyra, you're finally back."Noticing her red eyes, Lyra smoothed her mind and asked, "How's dad?"Kathleen shook her head, "It's not good. The doctor said it's just last two days. But still, we'll wait Micah.""Okay."Several people entered the villa quickly.The door of Reginald's bedroom was opened, and there was a man sitting in front of the bed.Lyra hadn't seen Collin for seven or eight days.This time when she saw him, he had completely changed.He was much thinner. The skin was also rougher than before. And he had beard, looking more haggard and mature.At the age of thirty-something, he looked ten years older by the torments of past few days.Lyra didn't know what he'd been through lately,
