Melvin entered the hall and went to help Charlotte up.
And then, he look at Lyra with disappointment, "I thought you'll restrain yourself after the divorce, but I didn't expect that you are still so despicable. You disgust me. I had planned to allocate this villa under your name. But it seems unnecessary." "Melvin, don't blame Lyra. I made her angry and she pushed me by accident. It's all my fault. You can scold me." Charlotte leaned in his arms with self-condemnation expression, sobbing in an aggrieved and pitiful manner. She then glanced at Lyra, but with triumphal smugness. Melvin's face was frosty, and he said to Lyra with a commanding tone, "Now, immediately, apologize to Lottie." Let her to apologize? She was a little angry. Lyra looked at the two loving persons back and forth, smiling with arched eyebrows. She tenderly went to pull Charlotte who was in Melvin's arms. Charlotte thought she would get angry and argue with her, but she didn't expect her to smile in front of her. Feeling confused, Charlotte could not understand what Lyra wanted, so she forgot to resist for a moment, and let Lyra pull her to the front. Snap-- "Ah!" A scream that was a hundred times more miserable than before. Charlotte covered her swollen face and fell to the ground. Lyra slapped her in the face with almost her full force that her own palm was a little numb by that. It could be seen that the slap on Charlotte's face was really painful. Lyra still had a smile on her face, and was surprisingly indifferent. She didn't look like a initiator at all. She looked down at Charlotte who was on the ground, and her voice was gentle, "Since you say I'm bullying you, how can I help you confirm my evil deeds if I don't really slap you?" With tears in her eyes, Charlotte sat on the floor and wailed up in a small voice. Melvin completely did not expect that Lyra dares to do it in front of him that he forgot to pull Charlotte up. With a grim face, he glared threateningly at Lyra, "Instead of apologizing, you're making it worse! Are you provoking?!" "You're overthinking it, Mr. Freeman." Lyra waved her hand with a brighter smile on her face. "We used to be a couple after all. Before I leave, I'll give you another big gift!" As she spoke, she pulled out a thick stack of copy paper from her bag and flung it at Melvin's face. Snow-white papers was flying in the air. Melvin picked one up and saw it was a record of text message, of which was filled with mocking and insulting words with a very arrogant tone. He read the sender's number silently, and was a bit shocked. Turning the paper to the back, there was a list of evidence that he was drugged last night, all pointing to one person, Charlotte. Melvin's brows furrowed deeply. His gaze horrified at Charlotte who was on the floor. Charlotte just about finished reading the paper and paled miserably. She had indeed found someone to put the drug in Melvin's drink and called Melvin to come to the hotel to look for her. But she never thought that the driver would send her back to the villa by mistake, and Melvin slept with Lyra! She was so indignant. She just wanted to send some text messages to insult Lyra. Who knew that Lyra would dare to reveal it like that this time! What would Melvin think of her ...? Without waiting for her to argue, Lyra had already taken her packed suitcase and looked one last time at the man she had loved so much before leaving. "Melvin, remember, I'm not the one who got dumped. You are! It's me who doesn't want you anymore. It's the Freeman family that doesn't deserve me!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐Melvin frowned. When did he ever say he wanted to abandon her? Why would she think that?He was baffled and just wanted to go after her to make things clear but his pant leg was clutched from behind."Melvin... I know it's wrong."Charlotte on the floor raised her miserable little face and softly choked as she explained, "I'm just afraid... afraid that you'll really like Lyra for the three years I've been away. I'm afraid you won't want me ..."Melvin frowned, looked down and saw her slightly puffy cheeks. His eyes slightly moved, and he reached out to help her up."I said I'll give you the status of being my wife. Divorce is a matter of time, and you are too eager this time." His tone softened a bit.Charlotte grabbed his sleeve and pursed her mouth in aggression, "It's all my fault, but I didn't want to harm anyone. I just used the wrong method, Melvin ... forgive me!"When he didn't say anything else, she softly leaned into his arms, tentatively revealing her fair shoulder.Melvin'
The receptionist sized her up again to make sure she didn't look like some celebrities who depended on their appearances."How can you be a client? Do you know that the president of our Angle Group is worth hundreds of millions of dollars? Are you the kind of person who can get along with him?"Lyra was practically laughing.With her status now, she was afraid that she was way much richer than this Angle Group president. And the receptionist acted like asnob.For this kind of employee, Lyra was also lazy to talk nonsense with her. And her expression was serious, "Make a phone call to your senior. Just say I am here. If the senior does not see me, I’ll bear all the consequences."The receptionist wanted to continue to retort, but was scared by Lyra's cold and sharp gaze that she dared not say anything."That's what you said! Consequences at your own risk!"The receptionist grunted and informed the senior by adding the trimmings, when Lyra looked more and more arrogant.The receptionis
All of the employees was astonished!The receptionist Emily just said that she received a woman who was suspected to be Mr. Lloyd's mistress, and the company suddenly had a brokerage director!They had speculated that if this director was the same person as Mr. Lloyd's mistress.However, they were unaware that their company had actually changed its boss.But Lyra called it by a good name of: a personal visit.On the one hand, because she had never handled the behind-the-scenes of the entertainment industry, she was not clear about the business process, and she needed Keith to help her go through all of this. One the other hand, she did not know the company personnel. If she lurked among the staff, and became their colleague, it would be convenient for her to quickly know the personnel situation and to a layoff later!As the suspicions continued, Emily, at the service desk on the ground floor of the Angle Group, was looking at Jalen, the special assistant, who was walking towards her,
Hearing someone call her name, Lyra turned her head to look over. There was no extra expression on her face.She guessed that Melvin and Charlotte would show up, but her heart has been completely dead since Melvin asked her to apologize at the villa. Now Melvin was just an insignificant ex-husband to her.With a decent smile on her face, she took Keith's arm and went up to socialize.Seeing Lyra and Keith coming towards her side, Charlotte was surprised and subconsciously turned her head to look at Melvin beside her.Melvin's eyes had also been on Lyra. He seemed to be shocked, but was still sullen in his eyes.Because of what happened during the day, he felt a little guilty for a while.But she not only changed her appearance in a few hours, but also hooked up with another man?Although it must be said that tonight she was indeed very beautiful, stunningly beautiful, he actually didn't know that his ex-wife could be so stunning after three years of marriage.And could Keith be her ne
"Yes, I hit you. Cause you're too cheap."Lyra rubbed her palm carelessly, and sneered, "It seems that the Freeman family's education is really not very good. The daughter they teach is only full of shit.""Also, what's wrong with married people? Is there a rule that married people are not allowed to participate? Is your brother not married? What you just said is an insult to me personally. I can sue you.""You!"Sheila's temper sparked. She was hit in the face in public and was accused of being ill-bred. And she and the Freeman family were humiliated.The most crucial thing was that the one who beat her was Lyra, who was bullied by her in the past and was too afraid to say anything!What a disgrace!"Bitch, I gonna kill you!"She rushed over hideously with sinister expression, and reached her hand for Lyra's hair.Keith saw this and quickly took Lyra into his arms and turned his back on Sheila.The other one who was first to protect her was Melvin.He frowned and looked askance at Sh
Lyra was listening to the lively music on the dance floor and was tasting the chocolate mousse made by a seven-star chef from France.Coldly, the man's broad palm broke into her line of sight."This young lady, I wonder if I would have the honor to invite you to a dance?"She raised her head and looked upward along her hand, and saw Melvin's unchanging cold face. Her appetite instantly became less than good.They were looking at each other.Melvin's heart abruptly missed a beat. It was the first time for him to seriously look at Lyra's face. He found that her features were just perfect. Her skin was fair and flawless, making her beyond comparison. It turned out that his ex-wife was really born very beautiful.Especially the eyes, they were like the stars in the sky, which were clear but with stubborn temperament.Unconsciously, Melvin looked dumbfounded.Her eyes gave him an illusion of déjà vu.He was in a daze when he saw Lyra suddenly smile sarcastically. Her eyes were full of indi
In the garden.Lyra had her arms crossed and stood in front the fountain to get some fresh air.If she didn't come out to get some air, she was probably going to be fainted by the disgusting smell of the banquet hall."Lyra!"A shrill voice suddenly sounded behind.She turned her head and saw that it was Sheila walking towards her, holding her head high."Didn't it hurt enough? Still want me to help you recall it?" She coldly looked back and her tone was aloof and cold.Sheila was so angry at her words that she wanted to go up and scratch her face, but thinking of her plan, she clenched her hands and held herself back.She took a bank card out of her LV bag and handed it to Lyra with a patronizing tone."There's $300,000 in here. It's yours as long as you promise never to hang around my brother again. Leave Frayton and never come back."Lyra frowned and gave an odd look at the bank card in her hand.A mere $300,000 can't even buy a strand of Lyra Lloyd's hair, and she wanted to buy he
Sheila looked at her smile and was even more confused.And Lyra had already opened the box, grabbed a large amount of bill with her hand and smashed it in Sheila's face.Before Sheila had time to react, she saw something smash over, and her face suddenly hurt, followed by the entire box of bills hitting her head and floating down from the top of her head, landing all over the floor.She was dumbfounded on the spot.Lyra teasingly curled her lips, "Here is a million dollars. As long as you voluntarily remove your name from the Freeman family and get out, this money is yours. How about that? Are you excited? This is several times more than what you offered!""You!"Sheila was so angry that her chest was heaving and her eyes were red with anger. This bitch dared to hit her face with money!And she taunted her with what she just said!"You're a sleeping-around whore! Bitch! How dare you show off with the money from sleeping with men! Ah! I'll kill you!"She gritted her teeth and rushed ov
What was Melvin doing here?And the toast he referred to happened a long time ago, right?He remembered it well.She glanced at him.He was not the only one who came here,. Chad, Eleven, Twelve, Fifteen, Seventeen were all there.She subconsciously looked up at the second floor railing. Anthony was still leaning in place. Because of the lighting problems, she can not see his expression, but can detect that he was looking at this side.The man who made the toast was fierce by Melvin and looked at Lyra innocently, "This lady, I didn't mean anything else. It's just a glass of wine. I don't know why this gentleman is insulting me." "That's right. It's just a glass of wine."Lyra smiled. Her slender fingers reached the wine that had been transferred to Melvin's hands.Melvin refused to give it to her. His dark eyes were gloomy, and his face was written with displeasure.Her beautiful eyes were gentle and her tone was gently coaxing, "Be a good boy. Let go and I'll accept your toast next ti
Shuttling around from memory, she asked uncertainly, "Are you ...Rebecca?"Rebecca Callahan, who was happy to see that she remembered her, came forward and took her arm."Lyra, you are so beautiful. I haven't seen you for so many years. Did you miss me?Anthony said you are in Frayton and I couldn't wait to come and visit you."Rebecca and Anthony were half-brother and sister. She was the seventh in the of Callahan family, and she was the same as the youngest daughter, three years younger than her, and used to love to cling to her from childhood. She had a naive character but also an arrogant little princess.She smiled and tickled the tip of Rebecca's nose, "You have grown up and is still acting like a clinger?"Rebecca softly grabbed her arm wobbling, "Lyra, you laugh at me. It's because I like you. I still do not let others touch me. This time it is rare for me to leave home. Lyra, you have to accompany me." To accompany her?This was not to find herself a little troublesome person?
Twelve glanced at Nineteen who are next to him. He was a little worried and wished to speak but stopped on a second thought: "Miss..."Lyra waved her hand lazily, "You can leave."When the two had just left, she received another call from Keith."Rara, Collin has double-checked. The family's list doesn't have a file on a man who looks like this one."Lyra pursed her lips and was lost in thought.Keith continued, "It could be that your new recruit Nineteen is lying, or it could be this person is hiding deep. In any case, you can't believe everything, and Nineteen is someone you should be careful with." "Well, don't worry, Keith. I know what to do."Hanging up the phone, she took out the sketchbook in the drawer, flipped to the page with the portrait of the man in black, and looked at it carefully for a while before continuing to work.It was close to off duty before she took Nineteen with her and set off for Fantalure Bar.Nineteen was driving and Lyra sat in the back.The atmosphere i
Was it because boss was divorced, that he fell in love to stimulate the mind of boss?His knees sank almost instantly, and he had to kneel down on the spot, screaming in agony."Boss, I was wrong! I never dare to quietly fall in love again. Please forgive me this time ... or you punish me!""Who said anything about punishing you?"Eh?Brad's bent knee stopped midway. The posture was awkward. And his expression was obviously still puzzled, which was a little comical.Melvin's face was expressionless. His eyes were serious, "I recently encountered a similar problem, so I called you to Frayton and asked you for advice."The word "advice" was uttered. Brad had trepidation, and observed him for half a second. Seeing that he really did not mean to get angry, Brad tentatively said."My girlfriend has a good temper. She is gentle as water, but can not touch the bottom line. She will explode if I get her mad. As for making her happy well, it is nothing more than a small gift and attitude, and
She had known him for so long. Although he had pretended to be aggrieved a few times before, it was still the first time for her to see his crying look. Was he really sad?She sighed helplessly and softened her tone a bit, "I said it was an act, and you were serious?"Melvin did not speak, lowered his eyes, with a touch of fragile vulnerability.Yes, he was serious and sank into it.In the end, it was the reality that hurt him.Lyra had nothing to say, and only by being awake from beginning to end will she not lose her judgment.Acting was just acting. The fake can never become real. She had always been clearly distinguished.Besides, did he want her to coax him?Impossible.Besides, she couldn't say anything comforting.She turned her head and was about to leave, changing back to a cold tone, "Hurry up and sweep. I'm going to bed."However, she just took a step and her wrist was clutched by Melvin from behind.She had a tired look on her face, "Let go, I'm tired."Melvin didn't move,
Anthony was really irritated by it.He suppressed his inner frenzy and softened his tone."Lyra, I can do these too. I'm better looking than him. Wouldn't I please you more?"Lyra picked Melvin's chin again and observed his features."You are good looking, but he is handsome, not the same."Anthony's features were soft and delicate. A pair of blue eyes made him look more good-looking, more beautiful than the beauty.Melvin's eyes were dark and deep, and his features were handsome and extraordinary.When not smiling, it gave others a cold and hostile feeling.When he lowered his eyes and pretended to be innocent, there was a feeling of a big wolf in sheep's clothing, very undesirable.His face was more handsome.His thin lips were lightly gripping the shirt. His hands were bound, which was the ultimate desire.It made others feel the urge to bully him badly.Melvin heard what she said. Her voice was crispy, soft and extraordinarily pleasant to ears.He kept his hands up and his shirt i
The two men got on quickly and methodically, moving so fast they almost overlapped and were indistinguishable.Lyra did not know how to assemble this stuff, looking dazzled.But she kept her eyes on Melvin.He was too calm. He said he had only touched a few times, but the skilled movements were completely out of his muscle memory.It was impossible to do without years of experience in using guns so he was able to assemble with Anthony without the slightest disadvantage.She stared intently at Melvin. Her expression was growing grim.Across the room, Anthony was keenly aware that Lyra's focus had been on the opposite side.When assembling to the last part, his hand deliberately paused for half a second.In this half second, Melvin had already finished putting it together, coldly raised his gun and aimed at between his eyebrows. The killing intent was rolling under his eyes. Hid bony hand gestured to pull the trigger.Lyra noticed his movement and voiced out almost instantly, "Melvin, n
He was reclining on the sofa. His blue eyes were smilingly staring at Melvin.The posture was lazy and evil.He checked the men around Melvin. He was not a simple character, and Melvin's profile was so clean, so clean that he had to be suspicious."I'm just Melvin. That's all."Melvin's dark eyes stared at him. He stepped up to the sofa next to Anthony's and sat straight and upright.Melvin gently glanced at him. The first he noticed was Anthony's perfect pectoral muscles and collarbone which were exposed from his black shirt. With the blue and deep eyes, he was simply good-looking like a goblin.Even he, a man, found this image beautiful, and Lyra should find it eye-catching too, right?Melvin suddenly remembered what Anthony said to Lyra "affection for so many years". And in the police department, when Lyra saw Anthony, her face was complex.Lyra she... once liked him, right?Anthony noticed that he was staring at his body, and smiled evilly, "I am a man who is imperative to what is
Along with this shot, a sudden stabbing pain came from his body.It was not the heart, but the right arm.He opened his eyes and looked down to find a bloodstain left on his white shirt from a bullet that had grazed his arm.The shouting behind them suddenly stopped.He looked back and found Charlotte still maintaining her pose with her teeth and claws open to attack him. Her expression gradually changed from fierceness to numbness. Her heart was pierced by a bullet. The blood was like a blooming poppy, staining her dress red.Charlotte froze, and after seeing the blood on her chest, her face turned pale, and soon both eyes rolled over. And she fell to the ground unconsciously.A rhythmic and powerful applause came from outside the door.Anthony looked at Lyra with praise in his eyes, "Lyra, you are too modest. Although you haven't used a gun for so many years, your technique is still very accurate, really worthy of my teaching."Lyra threw the revolver in her hand, and her face was c
