The wait for the wedding to arrive was extraordinarily torturous.Lyra spent the last two days muddling through.At the night before the wedding, Anthony had the wedding dress delivered to the apartment.She stroked the expensive and high-couture wedding dress, and felt inexplicably ironic in her heart.This was her first wedding ceremony and second time in a wedding dress.Originally, she thought she had no chance to wear it again in this life, but did not expect she had to marry a man she did not love this time.Anthony was standing in the doorway of her room, staring at her quietly, "Lyra, do like it? I had Europe Swye's most famous designer spend a week making it. The only one in the world."Lyra withdrew her hand from stroking the wedding dress and sat down on the edge of the bed with a pale expression, "Do you have something to talk to me?""I've been watching over Chad past few days as I promised you. He's healed up a good deal, so you don't have to worry about him."Lyra was r
They chatted and walked out of the dungeon and got into the car going to the Duke's house.In a short time, they arrived at the front door of the Duke's house.Chad just got out of the car and his eyes were instantly drawn to a familiar tall figure in front of the door.The man was wearing a dark black coat, with an upright posture and a cold, stern and reserved temperament, as if he was standing at the door waiting for him on purpose. Although wearing a mask and hat, the man's entire face was hidden in the darkness, but Chad still recognized him at first glance.In an instant, his eyes were red. Almost forgetting the injuries all over his body, he jumped over and embraced him regardless.The man smiled and patted his back, mocking him, "I haven't seen you for only half a month. Why has your nature become soft and flabby?"Chad frowned slightly, not answering. His arms circled him, claiming the warmth of his body like a brother.The girl, who just changed her name into "Isla", came ov
This familiar voice!Lyra's eyes were instantly red with surprise as she looked out the door.Malcolm's black coat was covered with snow. He came in in a solemn and cold way.He was followed by Chad, who also had a serious gaze.Immediately afterwards, two armies with different uniforms, entered neatly and orderly with their guns and immediately surrounded the whole church.The guests were horrified and the scene started to get rowdy.Anthony stared at the man at the end of the red carpet with undisguised hatred in his eyes, grinding his back teeth and saying, "Malcolm, you really know how to pick your time. You come here on purpose to stir up trouble?"Malcolm sounded cold and sarcastic, "Someone is not right-minded and has abducted my fiancee to a foreign country to force her to marry. Of course I have to come and take my woman away from such a lively and grand scene!"Anthony clenched his fists, and the hatred in his eyes raged like a mad dash.The guests, who were invited by Princ
Chad recklessly lunged up and held the potion securely in his arms, rolling his back, hitting the hard seat armrest and falling to the floor.The wound on his body instantly collapsed with blood, staining his shirt red. The severe pain in his back made his head giddy and his face pale, and he choked violently on the blood to the ground. But the super virus serum was still firmly protected in his arms. It did not broken at all.As Chad lunged, the two troops Malcolm brought over keenly aware of Princess Cayley's guards who were trying to shoot at Chad.Before the guards were ready to shoot Chad, Malcolm's men took the lead and killed them.The situation was instantly reversed, with Princess Cayley and Anthony isolated and vulnerable.Anthony couldn't care less. He looked angrily at Chad who was at his heels. His anger drove him to go over and kick Chad hard in the stomach.Chad convulsed, curled up into a ball, choked on another mouthful of blood, and passed out.Before Anthony could k
Anthony died, and he left with a smile on his face.He seemed to have no more regrets in this world.Lyra's whole body was weak. She closed her eyes because she can't bear to see him fall down desolately.The childhood moments with him and the laughter flashed back in her mind, and a strong sadness wrapped around her.With her own hands, she shot the man who had loved her for a whole decade."Malcolm, take me away. I never want to come to European Swye again." She collapsed weakly into Malcolm's arms. Her voice choked with sobs.Malcolm kissed her forehead with unparalleled tenderness and whispered in relief, "It's over. You fulfilled each other's wishes. It's the best ending he wanted." How could he not see that Anthony was doing it on purpose.Anthony was paranoid and more proud than anyone else. He lost Rara. He lost everything. He had no love and he was determined to die.To let him die at Lyra's hands as he wished was already the greatest forgiveness for him.As for Princess Cayl
Melissa didn't say anything and didn't have much of an expression.The assistant rolled her eyes at Corey, "Mr. Corey, you're shameless and scheming. Do you want to piggyback on Melissa's popularity? Because she just won the Best Actress?"Corey ignored her sarcasm and always looked at Melissa, "Melissa, I really know I was wrong. Just give me another chance! I'm worse than dead without you. Come back to me, okay?" Melissa laughed about that. When Corey cheated on her, she had clearly seen this scum's true intention.Now, she would not believe any words he said, and she only felt ironical.She remembered Lyra's ruthlessness when she treated the scum and the bitch. Slowly, she took out a delicate little dagger from the drawer, a souvenir left behind after her last scene was shot. Corey watched her take it into her hands and play with it, feeling worried, "Be careful, don't cut your hand. I'll be heartbroken."Melissa felt disgusted about what he said and handed the dagger to him.Witho
Shane's eyes were gloomy as he continued."Because my father asked to register Anthony under mother's, mom didn't agree. She could not accept my father not only cheated on her, but also arrogantly brought back the mistress's son. In a fit of anger, she left home alone when she was eight-month pregnant""You were born by her when she was alone outside. She was anxious during pregnancy at that time and had some mental problems, so she accidentally lost you. And she blamed herself for this matter for many years...""After hearing that he said, Melissa was in shock, as if her perception had been turned upside down completely, "Even if I look like your mother, what makes you think I must be a child of your family when the Frayton orphanage doesn't even have a file on my parents or my birth?""Indeed, when mother lost you, you were too small, not to mention that she went to the neighbor city. I do not know what happened later, and you were adopted by Frayton orphanage. This is why for so m
"Don't guess. Sooner or later you will understand."He knocked Isla's head in a serious way, "But I've never taken care of anyone yet. And I'm not going to keep you for free. So if you want to be with me, you'll have to show me what your value is by keeping you."Isla's pupils were slightly dilated, and she thought seriously for a moment.Chad saw her who was in trouble, pursed his lips, and took the lead in moving forward.Not long after, Isla caught up with him, took his arm and said, "Why don't you teach me martial arts? I can help you kill people later! Be the sharpest knife in your hand!"Chad was speechless.Why would he kill someone for no reason?Did she really believe him when he said he was a psychopathic murderer?"Since you know I'm not a good person, you're really not afraid of me at all?"Isla stared at him. Her clear eyes were extra serious, "I just know that you saved me. You are the first person in this world who has been so good to me! Even if you are really a bad pe
The moment when he realized what happened, he hurriedly begged her and re-answered."Honey, don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to say you're heavy. You're so light, like a feather, and your figure is so good. I can't stop loving you. I can't help myself." He looked at Lyra nervously.Lyra still stared at him solemnly, not speaking.Malcolm looked at her and was confused. Did he get the wrong answer again?He didn't understand what other right answer there was?Seeing Lyra's face getting colder and colder, he hurriedly begged for mercy, "Honey, can you tell me the answer you have in mind?"Lyra grunted twice in condescension, "Yeah, how about when we get back to the bedroom, I'll teach you word for word with the ruler?"His back instantly stiffened slightly.Lyra pouted, mentioned his first answer and listed his crimes in all seriousness."The unthinking answer is the truest picture of your heart, which means that's how you think.""I'm just wearing a long gown, and you think I am heavy
Shane's eyes were deep as he stared at her, "How can it be considered a sale? I'm just helping you choose a better husband."Melissa stared at him incredulously, "Shane, we're in a modern world! Freedom of marriage should be revered. If the price of regaining my identity is the loss of choice and freedom, then I'd rather be an orphan for the rest of my life!"In the face of her strong opposition, Shane quickly softened his tone and dragged her back to his side."Well, it's just a discussion with you. There's no need to be so angry. If you insist, I won't force you."It was only with this comment that Melissa was relieved and continued to accompany him to socialize.Lyra and Malcolm's side.Together with Malcolm, the Lloyd Group was able to secure another major international trade deal as they had hoped, and had an appointment tomorrow to discuss the contract.Malcolm gave Horace a friendly handshake on Lyra's behalf.Horace said politely in less than fluent Cranian, "Miss Lyra, I look
In the business party.It was held at Cloud Top Hotel, the highest hotel in Suham. And it was on the 98th floor.All the people who came were the big names in business community of the Suham.Lyra and Malcolm entered arm in arm just as Shane, with Melissa in tow, came out of the elevator at the other end.The two sides met right at the door.Malcolm, after all, was Shane's boss at the National Investigation Bureau.Shane saw him and bent over extremely respectfully and politely, "Good evening, Mr. Malcolm."Malcolm nodded his head coldly and proudly in response.As soon as Melissa saw Lyra, she tried to run up to her, but Shane pulled her back just in time."Melissa, there are so many people watching. Mind your manners."Her wish to have a private conversation with Lyra fell through, and she could only lower her head in sullenness.Seeing this, Lyra released her hold on Malcolm's arm and took the lead, pulling Melissa with her and looking at Shane with a slight apology."Mr. Shane, I
"Abigail ..."He frowned, covered his shoulder and called softly with red eyes.It was the first time for Abigail to see such an expression. She was stupefied for a long time before realizing what happened. Then she closed her eyes not to see him."Micah, I am now the fiancee of the weaver family. I have no relationship with you. If you do anything to me today, my reputation will be all ruined."These words quickly recalled Micah's remaining sobriety."I was abrupt."He got up and sat down in a nearby chair, with his arms and legs scrunched together.His lower lip was bitten by him out of a row of blood marks. His body could not stop trembling. His face was more red than normal. Obviously, it was very hard to endure that.The moment when Abigail got free, she ran for the door and left without a backward glance.Micah looked at her determined back and laughed at himself.It would have been better to realize his feelings for her earlier, but he only felt hurtful after he really lost her
Being robbed of the glass for twice, Abigail got a little annoyed."Micah, give it back to me! Who are you to me? Just leave me alone."Micah didn't say anything and didn't give the glass of wine to her. He ducked and held the glass.Because his arms were longer than Abigail's, Abigail could not get it, which made her really angry."Micah, can you be reasonable? I've been chasing you for a year but you don't like me. Now I'm tired. Can you just leave me alone!?"Her eyes were red, and her tears glistened in grievance."Miss Matthews, no, Abigail, I..."He looked straight into her eyes, and opened his mouth but did not say a word. However, his ears and cheeks quietly turned red."What?" Abigail questioned him.He inhaled deeply. It was the first time in his life to do this kind of confession thing. And he was even more nervous than when he first operated on a surgery!Abigail had no more patience, "If you don't wanna say it, just forget it. I won't disturb you, Mr. Micah."She got up t
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
