Jamie paused, and the crowd instantly fell silent, waiting expectantly for what he was gonna say.

The look on his face turned solemn, "I believe that all the guests here know what happened to the Matton Corp a few days ago. It was agonizing to our family. But for the purpose that the Matton Corp could continue to prosper, I have decided to announce my new heir in the presence of all of you tonight, Charlotte Matthews."

As he finished, he turned his head and stretched out his arm to indicate the crowd to look upstairs.

Charlotte had changed into a new light yellow long dress, fluffy curls falling right on her right shoulder, and she even had her makeup fixed too, back to being the pretty Miss Matthews.

Her gentle and elegant smile seemed like she had totally forgotten what had happened over an hour ago.

The guests also applauded accordingly when they saw her.

With the lesson she just learned, Charlotte collected herself and came downstairs at an even pace, slowly walking up to Jamie an

  • BILLIONAIRE LIFE AFTER DIVORCE   CHAPTER 45: DEFEND HER BECAUSE SHE'S PRETTY

    Katelyn was about to question Charlotte when Jamie and Melvin came this way, side by side.Seeing the man that she thought she could seek protection from, Charlotte instantly pounced over, crying, "Melvin..."Melvin took a glance at him and pursed his lips without saying anything.In the dim light, his expression was somewhat dour.Jamie saw Charlotte's ruined makeup and asked, "What's going on?"The guests gathered around helped to explain the situation. Although they were biased towards Charlotte, they didn't say anything too harsh considering that they didn't dare mess with Cody, and that they were really amazed by Lyra's dance.As Jamie listened, he basically understood what happened.Putting on a smile on his face, he apologized to the guest and let them continue with their dinner; then he comforted Charlotte with a few words, and went back to the main banquet hall with the others.Charlotte was still whimpering as she went to take Melvin's hand. She pouted like an innocent littl

    Just...Lyra wondered if Melvin was involved in this and how much he was involved in this.Seeing her face getting more and more sullen, Kellie asked weakly, "So, Director, what are you going to do?"Lyra handed the phone back to her, looking indifferent, and she just continued working, "No plans for the time being. You can leave now. We still have a proposal for the TV talent competition franchise to submit. I need to finish my work first.""Huh?"Kellie was stunned, "Director, if you let it be, the opponent will only get more arrogant, and things may get worse."Lyra didn't answer, already focused on getting to work.Fine, she had tried. Kellie thought to herself.She couldn't figure out what was going on in Lyra's head, so she sighed helplessly and left the office.In just a few hours in the morning, it quickly fermented online and soon shot up to the What's Trending list.Because Lyra's side had not given any response, and it seemed like someone was manipulating the public opinion

  • BILLIONAIRE LIFE AFTER DIVORCE   CHAPTER 47: SOW THE WIND, REAP THE WHIRLWIND

    Just as Charlotte was getting carried away, an account which seemed to belong to Lyra posted a video.It was a video of the wine splashing incident on the party shot from another angle.From this angle, it clearly recorded the whole process. Lyra showed Charlotte something on the phone; Charlotte was pissed off as soon as she saw it, and she raised a glass of wine, about to splash it. But her arm was clutched by Lyra, who managed to pour the wine at Charlotte instead.Although this video was clearer and longer, it still showed that Lyra was the one who splashed the wine, which didn't explain much.Before the internet trolls assembled in the comments section, the said account posted another tweet."Divorced. Going our separate ways."The crowd was confused. What did this mean?Did this mean that instead of being the homewrecker, Lyra was actually Melvin's former spouse?Although the two tweets were clear and concise, without solid evidence, people weren't convinced.The comments below

    The slap was so hard that before Charlotte realized it, she already hit the ground."You jinx! Do you want to bring the Matthews family down with you? How come we would have such an idiot like you!"Jamie pointed a shaking hand at her and gritted his teeth.Charlotte wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth; regardless of the pain, she tried to get up from the ground but failed twice, so she just sat directly on the ground."Dad, what do you mean? I don't understand.""You're still pretending, huh?" Jamie was furious. "You thought I wouldn't find out? You bought and sent the First Snow knockoff to Lyra Carroll, and you posted that video online. Do you hate that Lyra so much that you had to set her up?"Charlotte sat weakly on the floor, not saying a word.Seeing her like this, Jamie got even more infuriated."If you had succeeded, it would've been fine. But you got set up by others instead and had the Matthews family dragged through the mud along with it! Goddamn stupid!"Katelyn

    It was a girl's voice."Shut up if you don't want to die." The scar-faced man was holding a dagger against the girl's cheek.The other man, with one foot stepping on her chest, laughed wickedly.The girl was so frightened that she could only nod in cooperation.Seeing her gave up struggling, the two were even more pleased, "Babe, we haven't banged a woman for a long time. As long as you made us happy, we'll let you go afterwards."The girl sobbed uncontrollably at his words.The two men, lecherous grins on their faces, began to molest her.Having just unbuttoned the collar of her shirt, one of the men felt a sudden blunt hit on the back of his head. Covering the bleeding wound with his hands, the man gave out a wail before collapsing. The scar-faced man was startled by this sudden turn of events. He jerked his head to look and saw that it was a woman.Lyra was holding the high heels in her hand, standing there like a queen in her all-white suits.Once the scar-faced man saw her, his e

    Thinking of this, Charlotte got anxious. She quickly changed into an all-dark outfit, put on the face mask, and took a taxi straight to the place.Melvin came out of the bathroom after showering, and he couldn't get the video of Lyra dancing 'Lover' out of his head.He was a bit vexed. Had he known that he would be the one tired out, he would not have helped her this time.Lying in the bed, all he could see was Lyra's face whenever he closed his eyes, especially the pair of starry eyes, clean and stubborn, making you hard to forget once you've seen them. Also... they looked familiar.Having thought of something, Melvin hesitated for a while before giving Lyra a call.There were things he wanted to ask for clarification.First call, no answer.The second call, it said that the number was not in service.She hated him that much?Melvin felt inexplicably annoyed and tossed his phone to the side, trying to sleep....Charlotte took a taxi to the abandoned hut on the outskirts.Katrina was

    The woman's wail in the hut gradually weakened, and at the same time rang out the arrogant laughter of men."Lyra!"Melvin's eyes were flaming with wrath, and he kicked open the door of the hut with extreme force.The men inside were just about to get down to business when Melvin interrupted their fun.The two sides quickly got into a fight.This group of men had been gangsters for a long time, so they were ruthless in fights. Melvin and Fred got bruises on their face. Nevertheless, Melvin's strong killing intent drove him to kick and punch more mercilessly than the gang.In less than ten minutes, the group of men were scattered here and there, lying on the ground moaning in pain, no longer able to fight back.The room was still very dark, mixed with the sound of a woman vomiting blood and coughing."Lyra?!"Melvin followed the sound and found the sapless woman on the ground, and he carried her out across the room.Fred received a few more kicks from the opposite side during the fight

    In the small hours.Charlotte was taken to the hospital.The doctor's initial diagnosis was: two broken ribs, a mild concussion, and numerous wounds of different sizes, but fortunately no critical damage. Melvin sat alone on the bench outside the operating room, lost in his own thoughts.After the accident, he asked Fred to notify the Matthews family.Jamie and Katelyn, however, didn't arrive until dawn."Alas, my poor daughter. Why should this happen to her!"Katelyn's crying voice could be heard from a distance in the corridor, she didn't shed a single drop of tear, but even seemed to be gloating about it.On the contrary, Jamie walked up to Melvin with a sad face. Seeing Melvin's solemn expression, he said a few words to comfort Melvin.Melvin didn't respond to Jamie's comforting, but just politely said, "Uncle, Aunt, please have a seat."Jamie was not satisfied with his reply, "Mr. Freeman, I'm asking you as a father. What on earth happened, and how did Lottie get hurt like this?

    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
