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
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?
On each banner there was a sentence, and the upper one read, "STEW IN YOUR OWN JUICE."The lower one said, "SHOOT YOURSELF IN THE FOOT."The meaning was obvious!Charlotte was so angry that her eyes were flaming intense hatred and her whole body began to ache.Jamie's face also turned sullen after reading it.Only Katelyn couldn't help snickering, feeling extremely satisfied.However, when she laughed, the two people in the ward instantly turned their eyes to her, and Charlotte's face even turned purple from anger.Katelyn's smile froze and she hurriedly adjusted her expression."Ahem, this woman was outrageous. She clearly doesn't respect we Matthews family. Honey, if you don't teach her a lesson, there's no telling what she'll do that's even more shocking!" Just as she spoke, there was a knock on the door of the ward.A man in overalls gently pushed open the door and asked, "Excuse me, is this Miss Charlotte Matthews' ward?"The three in the ward looked at each other and Katelyn ask
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
"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
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
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
