These words instantly made everyone present stunned.One after another, they turned their heads to look at the city walls.A woman with tattered and dirty clothes was standing on the edge of the wall, and was unmoving.The key was that everyone's attention was on the opening ceremony today, and no one even noticed when the woman stepped on the wall.Many cameramen immediately aimed at the scene on the wall, and everyone's attention was drawn to it.There were also a number of staff members who were anxious and stomping their feet."What should we do? She wants to jump from there on our ceremony. If she dies there, it is a ill omen!""Yeah, in such a great day, does this mean the drama is going to be ruined?""The stocks of several entertainment companies that invest in this have to plunge, right?"Lyra listened to their discussion expressionlessly, but only instructed the staff next to her, "Immediately call the police. And then call the fire department to install life-saving air cush
"Yes, Mr. Malcolm is uneasy about your safety."Lyra felt warm, and immediately instructed them, "There are many people. The scene is chaotic, but I will be fine. Can you first go to clear the scene? And let all the media who took the video temporarily stay here? Can you do it?""No problem, Miss Lyra."More than a dozen bodyguards quickly moved out to clear the chaotic crowd.Irene fell straight down from the wall. Originally, she was thinking she would die on the spot and her brain would explode.But she didn't expect her to fall into the soft air cushion without any pain.Without waiting for her to react, Eleven and the others quickly stepped forward and grasped her hands behind her back to confine her.Less than five minutes, all the staff members were dispersed and warned before leavingThe group of media who took the video were placed together by four bodyguards and waited for Lyra to come over later to negotiate with them.After the crowd was almost gone, there was much less no
The crowd was so scared that their faces changed and they shook their heads."Miss Lyra, you have all the bigwigs behind you. How dare we lie to you!?""Yes! Don't worry, Miss Lyra! We'll keep it a secret!"Lyra nodded and winked at her bodyguards, telling them to keep an eye on deleting the video completely.When it was done, Lyra left there without looking back and instructed Fifteen, Seventeen to send Melissa back safely.In the car to Angle Group, Lyra was still thinking about Irene's words.Irene's character was domineering and vicious. She didn't have many friends except Ethel.Ethel was behind Irene's birthday party and gave her advice.This time, was it possible that it was Ethel again?Using Irene to let her stand out, Ethel deliberately made things worse?However, Ethel, despite her young age, had a lot on her mind and did not seem like such an indiscreet person.Lyra looked at the receding scenery out the car window, and replayed Irene's words in her mind.She felt deeply t
Caesar could not sustain this force and fell back several steps. The corners of his mouth were bleeding and swollen. Lyra was startled, but she looked inexplicably timorous when she saw the angry initiator."Mel, why are you here?"Malcolm stared at her and gritted his teeth, "If I don't come, are you really going to keep me in the dark?""Uh...you misunderstood. It's just a casual meal."Lyra finished her explanation and rushed to check on Caesar, "Are you okay?"Caesar wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, "It hurts a little, but I'm okay."He was spoiled at home, and never received a beating. He did not expect this time once abroad, and received a punch from Malcolm."Sorry, I'll ask Kellie to send you to the nearest hospital. I'll be responsible for your medical expenses and damage fee!"Caesar refused, "No, it's a minor injury.""You need it! You are the representative of European Swye. I'm sorry about tonight. Malcolm misunderstood. I apologize to you... eh eh! What are
Tonight, she was doing something wrong. When she saw Malcolm kneeling on the board, her anger instantly disappeared. And she had the guilty conscience and felt sorry for him at the same time. She walked over and gave him an out by gently poking his shoulder with her fingertips."Okay, let's not make a scene, okay?"Malcolm grunted and ignored her.Lyra continued to coax patiently, "I have not eaten. And I was carried back by you. I'm hungry. Mel, get up and cook for me.""I am receiving my punishment. Not available!"He was unmoved and pulled his phone out of his pants pocket to send a message over, "I'll have Keira make a few dishes and bring them over to you."Lyra continued to poke him in the shoulder, "But I want to eat your cooking. And besides, if Keira comes over, Chad will definitely follow. And if Chad sees it, will he quietly laugh at you?" Malcolm's hand, which was typing, gave an abrupt halt.But he quickly came up with a solution, "I'll call ahead and not allow Chad to co
"Shane knew about Anthony's theft of S404 biochemical virus. It's not clear if he knew about it early on. He's the most suspicious at this point."Lyra thought about it and shook her head, "When I had the accident at the age of fifteen, I didn't remember what happened at all, but I know very well that the one who can make me hit defenselessly must be an acquaintance!""And Vincent harmed me before because I have the right of inheritance in my hands. Shane and the Lloyd family's inheritance are not related. He is at most only an accomplice, probably not the mastermind." Malcolm was silent for a while and suggested a new possibility."Maybe the real mastermind doesn't have so much power. This person is just taking advantage of a privileged big shot like Shane.""Well, that's what I thought."Malcolm stroked her head, "Stop wondering and eat. Anyway, I'm here. I won't let anyone hurt you."Lyra pursed her lips and smiled.Her eyes were shimmering and her tone was sly."They want to harm
"Oops! Sorry!"She hurriedly turned her back and covered her eyes, with her heart still thumping.What did she just see?Malcolm White, who was known for the man in power of White family in Suham, had always been serious in speech and manner.In private, he was so obedient that he let Miss Lyra pinch his butt?Lyra, who was in the couch, heard the movement, and her face turned red. Immediately, she wanted to get up but was pulled by Malcolm into his arms again.He was smiling teasingly and said in a low and magnetic voice to accuse her, "You were caught bullying me. Rara, what should you do?"Did he put the blame on her victim?Lyra instantly lowered her eyes and ground her back teeth, "Mr. Malcolm, can you bark like a puppy?""No."Malcolm furrowed his eyebrows in displeasure and leaned in again as if no one was watching, kissing her precisely on the lips.Kellie, who was standing in the doorway, was panic.Would she be fired tomorrow when she happened to see the private sweetness of
Malcolm's expression immediately became grim."You mean you drowned when you were fifteen years old? And someone pushed you into the water?"Lyra nodded, "I lost my memory later. Until the night I married you, you deliberately did not return from overtime at the company. Charlotte came to me at night and said a lot of harsh words. I did not pay attention for a moment and she pushed me into the pool from behind. My head hit the coral raised next to it, only then happened to recover the memory."Malcolm's heart tingled with guilt at the mention of what happened three years ago, and his arms tightened around her.Lyra did not notice his change of mind and continued, "But about what happened to me, I really can't remember anything at all. Occasionally when stimulated, there will be some broken images, but I can not connect them together."Malcolm thought about it carefully and came up with a hypothesis."Rara, have you been injected with some kind of drug and that's what caused the memory
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
