Cody was still drunk and felt groggy.He shook his hand and pointed at Lyra, being not afraid of anything at all, "What the hell? Who? I don't know you!"What he said had managed to turn Lyra's anger to rage.Beatable little bastard!She looked around the room and saw that there was nothing to take advantage of. Subconsciously she looked at the belt around Malcolm's waist.Malcolm noticed her gaze and looked at his belt as well. Instantly he understood."No way!" He furrowed his eyebrows and refused decisively.Lyra thought about it and felt bad about it, so she looked at Chad again, who was standing by the door. Then she reached toward him, "Belt, give it to me.""Huh?"Chad, who was slightly confused, saw Malcolm's seemingly acquiescent gaze.He could only force himself to unbuckle the belt around his waist and hand it over.Before Lyra could take it, Chad had an sudden enlightenment, "Do you want to beat this kid up? It's a heavy work. My prospective sister-in-law, you can't be too
Lyra got a little annoyed, "Is this your business, or mine? If you don't be more aggressive, I'll let your family take you away tonight!" "Don't do that. I was wrong."Cody took a paper towel and wiped the water stains from his body. Then he straightened his messy hair, and reluctantly stood up.Lyra continued with the rebuke, "Hurry up. Come and open the door.""Okay, fine."The three came to the monitoring room together.According to Cody's recollection, they let the staff of the monitoring room to play out all the surveillance videos from the time Cody entered the room. It was played at ten times speed and they checked for the abnormalities together.As long as it was not committed by Cody, he must have been transported out from the bar to take photos at hotel, so it was impossible not to leave a trace.Cody drank too much wine. The surveillance videos were playing quickly. On a dozen screens, there were many people moving at the same time. He watched the videos and his brain was d
As if thinking of something, he instructed Chad, "Tell the National Investigation Bureau to arrest Aaron Barker immediately. I want to interrogate him myself.""Huh?"Chad didn't understand, "Bro, of three, Aaron didn't do anything out of the ordinary at all."Malcolm insisted, "Arrest Aaron Barker. I won't say it again."They all thought that those photos were taken on bed.So someone must have moved Cody out of the bar to a nearby hotel, and then let some voluptuous women to come and pose.But in fact, there was no complete bed on the photos. One could only see the white pillows and covers.When a normal person saw this kind of photo for the first time, he or she would think it was a photo in bed.He looked down at Lyra who was in his arms, choosing to tell her first of any thoughts he had."Rara, those photos on the internet are probably no bed photos. They may be taken in the room at the bar.""When I just checked the surveillance, I noticed that all the people who entered and lef
Cody walked towards him in anger and went up to him with a fierce punch, using his full strength.Aaron wailed and was knocked to the ground."Bastard, I'm not too mean to you, am I!?""The year before, that son of bitch of Combs family kissed your then girlfriend. It was me who brought people to help you out. Afterwards, I was beaten by my grandfather. I stayed in the bed for three days. have I complained about you?""You're going to ruin my career and my life! Where exactly did I wrong you!?"The more he talked, the angrier Cody became and he grabbed Aaron by the collar, lifted him up and punched him more times, specifically on the face.Aaron's face was soon bloody and his blood was dripping from the corners of his mouth.Lyra and Malcolm watched from a distance and did not obstruct.It wasn't until Aaron could hardly stand it that Malcolm spoke up to stop it, "That's enough. Chad, take Mr. Cody away."Chad immediately stepped forward and held Cody's arm from behind, forcibly dragg
One hour later.Various hot opinions about Cody on the internet were subjected to a round of cleansing.The National Investigation Bureau's official notice of punishment clarified for Cody that he was just drunk and was taken advantage of to take photos to blackmail money. Fans of Cody online saw this message and instantly became strong-willed."I told you my Cody would never do such a thing! Those people are just jealous of my Cody's popularity!""Thanks for returning my Cody's innocence. Those trollers who do not know the truth and still take the side, come out and apologize!"Lyra was sitting in the car back to Lyre Spiti. She was checking her phone for new headlines and was pleased with the way the incident had petered out.Thinking of the old Mr. Carver, Lyra made a phone call personally the next day just after she arrived at Angle Group.She persuade him in various methods.She also used her job as the Angle Group's agent as an excuse, and said that Cody's schedule was full rece
The old man in the bed was peaceful, calm and unresponsive.Lyra knew there was no way he would react.Micah gave a diagnosis that could not be wrong.However, she just wasn't willing to accept it and wanted to make sure.The tip of her nose was sore and unbearable. Her eyes became watery, and the intense sadness overwhelmed her. Her tears dripped uncontrollably onto the back of her hand. "They are simply not human!"She whispered. Her eyes gradually looked ruthless.In order to get the inheritance from her, this person did such bad deeds to her father.This time, even if it was her blood relative, someone she loved or revered, she would never forgive that person!"Dad, don't worry. I will give you an account for this matter. No matter who did it, I won't let them go off!"Lyra stroked the back of his hand and rested her head on his arm. Her tears were flowing silently into her hair. And she could remember Reginald had given her so much fatherly love all the years. "Miss Lyra."Dougla
Keith was momentarily dumbfounded and could only look to Micah, "Micah, can you?"Micah got up, got the test report on the coffee table and carefully examined it.At the end of the report, it was written, "the parent-child relationship is not supported", along with the official seal of Suham Hopevale General Hospital and the signature of the president."The president of Hopevale General Hospital is Mr. Hall. He is my teacher. He has always had a good relationship with dad. He personally signed it... It can't be false."It was not false?These words hit Keith and Kathleen's hearts hard.Claudia was delighted and did not hide her feelings at all.Lyra didn't pay any attention to the paternity test. She just looked at Collin, who was on the main couch and had deep eyes and didn't say anything. "Collin, you don't seem surprised. You already knew it?"Collin: "Not really early to know. After dad's accident, I'm the first to arrive. I immediately looked up the cause and knew it at most a fe
"Replaced?"Malcolm laughed and snorted lightly. And he glanced sharply and sarcastically at her, "Are you trying to say you will replace her? But you, are you worthy?"Ethel's face turned completely cold."Mr. Malcolm, I hope that when Lyra's identity as an illegitimate daughter is made public, you will also choose to marry her with determination, regardless of the fact that White Corp's stock will plummet." She smiled and gave a condescending laugh. Then she turned her head and walked away.Chad watched her back as she got in a car and left. He spat and gritted his teeth, "As if she isn't an illegitimate daughter herself!""Oh my temper! Why the hell does she have to be so supercilious?""Keira is also only nineteen years old, but her scheming seems cute. Why is Ethel so disgusting!?"Chad was indignant and cursed for a long time, struggling to quell his anger.Malcolm just let him do so and calmly helped Lyra arrange, "For Rara and Clark's paternity test, I'll leave it to you to ha
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
It had been a long time since she had not been so cold to him.Lyra didn't say anything.Because of this incident, she still felt her heart palpitating.If Keira hadn't told her this in time, if she hadn't let the driver run a red light all the way back to the hall furiously, and if the eighty times of whipping really happened, she did not dare to imagine how Malcolm would be injured.The last time when Travis was punished, she still remembered it to this day.As long as she arrived there a little late and Malcolm got two lashes, she could have been heartbroken. But why did he not care about himself?He had forgotten the promise he made to her before so quickly?If she didn't really teach him a good lesson, he would have this concealed injury thing happen again!She mulled it over seriously, took his hand, and went all the way upstairs.Malcolm felt the chill and followed her into the room without a word."Just stand here."She pointed to the carpet at the end of the bed.Although he
At the door, there was a gentle smile on Lyra's delicate face. Her chest was rising and falling incessantly, which was caused by a violent gasp after a wild running.The old White froze and didn't say anything.Albert immediately reacted and went around to the old White and pleaded, "Dad, Miss Lyra is involved in this matter. Please don't leave first. We can listen to what she has to say first. Maybe there is something that we don't know?"Lyra smiled with curved eyebrows. Her face was extremely pleasing to the elders.The old White stared at her and agreed.Malcolm, who was still kneeling on one knee in the middle of the hall, actually had no confidence to be able to endure the punishment.All his attention was focused on his back. He was concentrating on waiting to the pain, so he didn't even hear Lyra's voice at the door.He had been waiting for a while. What fell on his back was not the harsh and vicious whip of the family rule, the shirt and suit that he had just taken off and re
"Okay, got it."Malcolm's tone sounded calm. What should come always had to come. But if Lyra knew it, she would probably feel unhappy for a while...Thinking about this, he immediately instructed Chad, "Call Keira over and have her accompany Rara on her pregnancy test. Don't say anything more to Rara.""Yes."Chad immediately took out his phone and messaged Keira.Within two minutes, Keira came up from the garage.She was Chad's little follower. Chad was busy with various investigations these days. Keira had to follow all the way every time, and then obediently wait in the car for him.Once Keira arrived, Malcolm looked serious and instructed her in a serious manner, "If Rara asks later, tell her that White Corp had an urgent business and I need to go the office." "Oh, okay."After the arrangement, Malcolm immediately left with Chad.The two of them returned to the White Manor in a short time.Malcolm lowered his head and quietly thought about something the whole way.When he reached
Lyra's eyes instantly went cold.She smiled sarcastically as she remembered what happened yesterday at the Lloyd Manor."Even you don't believe this test, my brothers who have loved me for more than twenty years believe it. It's really ridiculous to think about it.""As for your advice about having Micah come here ....," the sarcasm of her tone intensified, "he is the first to believe it when he saw the report with the president's signature yesterday." Now throughout the Lloyds, she trusted no one.Irene was secretly released and went to her opening ceremony. Before she left, she yelled at her and taunted, "The one in your family has been pretending to be an innocent sheep around you for so long. I'm really looking forward to the day when you see his true face!""It must be hard to be betrayed by the one you love so much! Lyra Lloyd! I'm waiting for the day when you know the truth and fall apart!"Previously, she thought that Irene was slandering Malcolm.Now when she thought about it
Lyra burst into laughter and proudly held out her right hand to Malcolm."You must think it clearly. There is no regret it later. If you dare to bully me in the future, I will not spare you." "Okay, wash board and ruler stand by for you."Lyra was amused by him. The sadness half an hour ago completely fade away in his a gentle reassurance.Her whole heart seems to be immersed in a honey pot, which was so sweet that she can not help but smile.Malcolm took her hand, decisively put that ring on her and continued, "Wear my diamond ring and be my woman." "Rara, you can't escape in your lifetime."He cupped her hand. His soft and thin lips gently kissed the back of her hand. Then he got up and carried her on his arms."Wait."Lyra looked at the green roses under the tree, "Can't waste such beautiful flowers. Why don't we have the bodyguards cut them and put them in vases in each room?" "It's up to you."He lowered his head, kissed her on the mouth and went inside the villa.Lyra was still
