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
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
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. M
"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
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
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
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
For this slap, the force was not heavy, but with an indefinable ambiguity.She stared at the side of his face, raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly "Who is making fun of who? You have promised to do five hundred and twenty push-ups as a gift. You're going back on your word?" She tapped him again, "Come on. Keep doing. This is the promise."With his trembling arms, Malcolm hardened himself to regain the standard push-up position.Lyra's voice came again from behind, "Three hundred and fifty-seven, come on."Malcolm instantly understood. So, she still remembered the number and deliberately made fun of him.She was a really bad woman.He shook his head helplessly. What could he do? He worked so hard to get back her heart so how could he not spoil her?"Three hundred and fifty-eight."In the early morning, he was counting over and over again with his magnetic voice in the bedroom.When Sophia passed by, she would occasionally glance sideways in amazement and stare at the closed door.B
Anthony, who was on the other end of the phone, noticed that her mood was not right, smiled gently and coaxed, "Rara, don't worry. Spencer and Momo are very good. Spencer has finished his injection and didn't cry. Momo seems to be a little bit timid, but I hold her and she's quiet."Lyra looked at Momo's aggrieved expression, and her heart ached like a twinge. She endured it before saying, "Thanks.""No problem."Anthony laughed and his blue eyes looked fascinated.These bright blue eyes only glowed with a shimmer when they saw Lyra.Malcolm watched the interaction between the two.The heart abruptly had a dull pain. He suppressed the sour feeling on his nose and silently went to the side to pack suitcases.Lyra didn't pay much attention to Anthony at all and was preoccupied with the babies.In the video, the doctor had prepared the syringe, hidden the needle and coaxed Momo.But Momo was very resourceful and seemed to have guessed that she was going to be given a shot. Her nose was w
High fever?Lyra gasped and her expression instantly turned grave. And then she turned her head to go out, "Buy a ticket immediately and go back to our country.""Honey, take it easy for a minute."Malcolm took her wrist and said methodically, "It's late at night over in Crana. There's no private plane that can be transferred this time, so there's not always a flight back home at night. Even if there is, the plane will take more than 20 hours to get there."Lyra gave him a cold look, "So you're just going to sit there and wait? Malcolm, you're really not worried when our babies get feverish and sick because we're not around?"She shook off his hand and walked outside the venue.Malcolm let out a long sigh and rushed to catch up, "I was wrong this time. Our babies are sick and I was in a hurry, but it is really too far for us to go back. So I have already called Anthony to let him know, and have Chad go to the medical team of White family to call in the pediatrician."He walked side by
In the anticipation of all the guests, Nil took the microphone, "After the group's deliberation, the Lloyd's Corp of Crana won the bid for this project. Congratulations." Applause erupted from the venue.Some people felt lost. Some exclaimed, and some admired.Lyra and Malcolm were the most calm ones, because this result was not unexpected.Midst a round of applause, Lyra stood up gracefully and bow slightly to all the guests at the scene, being courteous and polite.She stepped onto the red carpet, took a step onto the stage and shook hands with Nil in front of everyone, signaling a happy collaboration.The media gathered around the two who were shaking hands and took photos of them.Lyra's expression was appropriate and her temperament was elegant and generous.At this point in the bidding process, it was basically over.The groups that were not selected had to return without any success.But to their surprise, Nil announced another piece of good news before announcing the end of th
With Malcolm's personality, he was definitely not talking about work.Lyra raised her hand angrily and flicked him hard on the side of his head."This is a work thing. Be decent."Malcolm frowned and rubbed his painful forehead, employing a rebound tactic, "This is obviously decent. It's you who's thinking out of the box."Lyra was confused.Could it be that she was impure?She raised her hand again and flicked Malcolm's forehead again, accusing him righteously, "I am misled by you. You're making erotic statements all day long."It was always his fault. Malcolm conceded, lowered his head, listened docilely but did not open his mouth.Seeing his obedience, Lyra gave him a kiss. Remembering the half-hour delay in the opening of the tender meeting, she asked curiously, "After all, Nil Grey is the first heir of Atria and paramount and powerful. What did you tell him?"Malcolm had a mysterious expression, "Do you really want to know?"Lyra nodded her head.His handsome face had rare expres
Meeting his gaze, Melissa raised her simple and bright eyes and opened her mouth to explain."I think I may not be suitable for the actor industry. I don't want to be an actress. I want to go back and think about how to start my life and re-elect a suitable path for myself."Keith breathed a sigh of relief.Fortunately, as long as it was not a withdrawal, break-up, and leaving him, even if she wanted the stars in the sky, he would do his best to help her."Okay, I promise you. Don't worry. I won't force you to make a choice. You are now 21 years old at heart and have absolutely no acting experience. You certainly have the opportunity to choose your career path again."He stretched out his palm towards Melissa. His eyes were gentle, and the bass was nice and pleasing to ears, "I'll take care of the crew. You're tired today. Let me take you back to rest, okay?"Melissa stared at his broad palm for a while.Keith was patient, waiting quietly for her to think about it and give a reply.Me
Lyra and Malcolm smiled at each other and looked at each other with love in their eyes."They are all here to visit the museum. Do you want to go over and talk? Get acquainted for a few minutes?" Lyra asked with a smile.Malcolm looked across the exhibition hall, "Since Mr. Hoare is also enjoying with his girlfriend, he must not want us to disturb them. Or should we wait until they finish browsing that exhibition area and then go over?"Lyra nodded her head in agreement.She didn't like socializing, let alone interrupting their sweet time because of it.She thought Mr. Hoare and Anne didn't like it as well, so it was better not to disturb them.A brief interlude did not stop the two from visiting the Great Museum.Lyra and Malcolm waited for Paul Hoare and Anne in front of them to finish each time before moving on to the next show.Strolling around, this was the largest museum exhibition in Atria, and the afternoon of fun passed quickly.By the time the two emerged from the museum, th
Would be able to have sex?Malcolm's dark eyes glowed with excitement.As long as they could have sex, anything was fine.It was just crying in front of his wife. There was nothing to be ashamed of!He bit his lower lip, forced his eyes redden, looked back at her and admitted being defeated softly."Honey, I'm sorry. Next time I will never make a fool of myself. Don't beat me. My ass is swollen."Lyra lowered her eyes and looked at the wound behind him.The skin was indeed swollen and red with the water droplets.She admired her masterpiece," Mel, your butt looks even better. It's called the quick butt augmentation method. Top quality and excellent service." Malcolm was speechless.He suppressed the evil intent in his heart and asked, "I've given in. Shouldn't you keep your promise and let's do it?"Lyra put down the bath brush and nodded.The moment the weapon wasn't there, her wrist was clutched by Malcolm and pulled under the shower.The aggressive could no longer be concealed."Ra
Lyra hummed twice with arrogance, "Then we'll see."They were looking at each other with a strong desire to conquer.Crana was a long way from Atria, more than 20 hours by plane.With Malcolm's company, Lyra wasn't lonely at all on this trip.The two leaned over the plane window and watched the first rays of sunlight.And they watched the mountains with clouds stacked up.And they also saw the extremely beautiful sunset glow.Lyra pointed to the clouds in the sky that was flushed with purple and red, playfully smiling and teasing Malcolm."Do you like that color? When we get off the plane and check into the hotel, I'll give you a coat of fuchsia on your skin, okay?"Malcolm wrapped his arm around her waist, "It must hurt. You sound cruel but you definitely can't do that to me."Lyra tilted her head and placed a shallow kiss on his chin to represent her answer.Indeed, she couldn't be that cruel.Although it was Malcolm's disobedience that led to the exotic honeymoon this time, what wa
Lyra did not need to think and immediately knew which mysterious gentleman the stewardess was talking about.She sighed helplessly.She didn't expect a good low-key trip to be made so grand by Malcolm."First class is not necessary. Thanks for that gentleman's kindness. I purchased business class after all. I only sit in my own seat." She shook the plane ticket in her hand to the stewardess, while walking towards the cabin.The stewardess looked embarrassed and wanted to say something, but Lyra had already walked away.She had no choice but to call and report the matter to the mysterious gentleman.Lyra found the seat she had purchased in the empty cabin.She stayed up late last night revising the project, and had sex with Malcolm most of the night, so she could barely sleep.She was used to catching up on sleep on the plane. As she just sat down in her seat, she asked for a small blanket from the stewardess.She put her knees up, turned her phone off, and lie down to fall asleep in s
