"What is it?"

"Where were you on March 14th 13 years ago? Have you ever been to Pinewood Street in Frayton?"

"I don't remember." Lyra turned her head, still with an attitude of rejection.

It'd been so long. How can she still remember?

"Okay, then I'll ask you in a different way."

Melvin was not angry but continued to ask patiently, "Then do you remember there was a car accident on March 14th 13 years ago? Three people died. Only a little boy sitting at the back of the car survived, and a girl saved him."

Why would he ask that?

Could that little boy be him?

Lyra looked at his searching gaze and a part of her memories was evoked, recalling some fragmented images in a trance.

In that year she did save a person, but it was purely by chance.

She didn't even take it seriously.

Besides, the reason she came to Frayton that year was because of a very important matter, which involved the Lloyd family privacy. And she did not intend to tell it to Melvin, nor did she expect Melvin would continue

    Lyra's pupils dilated, "Melissa's missing?""Yes. And this is not an ordinary default withdrawal. There must be something wrong. Melissa is in very good state before the recording of the show and is getting along with the other contestants. So it's impossible for her to suddenly leave without saying anything.""I know. Continue the show filming first. Keep it quiet. Feel free to contact me if there's anything else."Lyra calmly arranged, "I will start to investigate this matter. Steady them."She hung up the phone and frowned tightly. After thinking about it, she dialed the phone number that was at the bottom of her phone's address book."Boss?"The person on the other side was very surprised and stuttered, "Is it really you?""It's me." Lyra answered very succinctly.The man on the other side immediately got excited, and even through the receiver, she could feel the man's shock and joy."Boss, you haven't contacted us for six or seven years. Is it something important this time? Darkb

    Melvin didn't say anything but looked at her lividly."Melvin, listen to me ..." Charlotte explained hurriedly, "Don't overthink. I was just chatting with my friend. And it's normal."Her sweat seeped out of her forehead as she wondered how much of her conversation with Irene he had actually heard and simply kept playing dumb."What are you planning to do?"Melvin ignored her explanation and looked ruthless.From his look and cold tone, did he hear it all?Charlotte's right hand subconsciously clenched the corner of the quilt."No, I just chatted with my friend casually. You don't believe me?"Melvin didn't pay attention to her pitiful expression, and his sharp eyes seemed to pierce her like a knife, "You should know clearly that even if you don't say anything, I can still send someone to investigate. But at that time, you won't have a chance."He rubbed his wristwatch. From his expression, no one could tell whether he was angry or not, but it made Charlotte more alarmed instead.She

    Peter grunted disdainfully and replied by patting on his chest, "It's just Kawa's apprentice, not Kawa herself. I can kill her in seconds in less than three moves!"He once achieved a national championship in boxing, which was why he was hired as a bodyguard by the Frazier group at a high price.After having his assurance, Irene was slightly relieved.She raised the binoculars and continued to observe the situation inside the cabin.Several large men struggled on the ground and were again subdued by Lyra.One of the kidnappers next to her grabbed a knife and tried to sneak up on her, but Lyra grabbed his wrist with agility and knocked him to the ground with a shoulder throw.She grabbed his hands, clipped them behind his back and kicked him in the crook of the knees."Want to sneak attack? You don't have the qualification even if you practice for a few more years."The strength in her hands increased a few. The kidnapper bared his teeth in pain and kept begging her for mercy.Irene wa

    "What?!"The kidnapper didn't expect her to ask this off-topic question suddenly and didn't realize what happen for a while."I ask, which hand hit her and which foot kicked her?"Lyra said one by one, and smiled with her eyebrows arched.Obviously, the woman in front of him smiled brightly, but the kidnapper leader could feel her vaguely threatening aura, continued to kowtow to beg for mercy, and even slapped himself. "I'm sorry. Beauty! Oh no! Queen! Please let me go!""One last chance."Lyra's eyes narrowed slightly and her face looked a little displeased."Right... right hand, both feet have kicked...,' .," the kidnapper replied while shuddering.Lyra got up and took a barbed stick from the corner of the cabin.Keith knew she was angry and didn't step forward to stop her."Ah!"Soon, the kidnapper's howls of pain echoed through the cabin.Melvin quietly watched the whole process of torturing him with her own hands.Last time he had seen with his own eyes how badly several of Grand

    The two stared at each other. Katelyn was defeated and could only grit her teeth in hatred."Fine! I believe you once, but if anything happens to my daughter, I'll kill you, even if I have to risk my life!" Without her standing in the way, Lyra entered the room unhindered and ordered someone to pick up Abigail. With Katelyn's reluctant and worried expression, Abigail was taken away.By the time Lyra returned to Keith's villa, it was at nightfall.The afterglow of the sunset tinged the sky with a gentle orange color, enveloping the entire Frayton in a soft glow.Keith picked a guest room, settled Abigail in, and joined Lyra on the couch to discuss the next steps.Abigail's expression was calm. Her eyes were tightly closed, as if she was sleeping peacefully."Her condition looks stable, and all vital signs are normal." Keith took the examination report from his personal doctor and rubbed his chin.Lyra took the report and looked again at Abigail in the bed. Her shapely eyebrows furrowed

    Late at night.Lyra sat in the first class cabin of the plane, had a coffee, and was still very much in good spirits.She looked out from the window, but unfortunately, even the outline of the clouds were difficult to identify in the ink-like darkness of the night.Lyra was disinterested and about to turn her eyes away.Instead, a familiar figure was seen in the refraction of the small window.The man wore sunglasses and met her eyes before turning his head and avoiding her.She became guarded, quietly looked around, and suddenly found that somehow, the few bodyguards she had brought up had passed out, and the rest of the passengers had fallen into a deep sleep. It was strange. It was the smell of danger.She stood up and thought about checking out the other cabins, only to turn around and find a man in a suit walking towards her with several equally strong men.The man in the suit was the same the man in sunglasses that she just had a glance with.It seemed their goal was clear, and

    "At Keith's villa?"Irene sat up from her bed in shock as she felt wide awake."Get your story straight. How does Abigail get involved with him?""Have you forgotten? Since Lyra and Melvin divorced, she and Keith have been very close. Although Melvin transferred Seaside Villa to her, she doesn't live there, and we haven't been able to find out where she lives.""What do you mean by that?" Irene frowned."Isn't obvious enough what I mean?" Charlotte rolled her eyes, "It means she's most likely living with Keith! There's no sign of Abigail in the whole Frayton, so it's likely Lyra is hiding her in Keith's villa!"After thinking about it, Irene felt that Charlotte had a point and immediately sent someone to check it out.Hanging up the phone, Charlotte tossed it aside in annoyance and leaned back against the bed to wait for her message.Abigail did not die, but became a vegetable. The fact had been like a thorn in her heart.No matter how proud she was in front of people, Abigail's prese

    "Bastard!"Melvin's veins on his hands bulged and he grabbed his collar and punched him hard in the face, "From which position did she jump? Where did she fall?" Fred was dizzy from the punch by him.He wiped the blood seeping out of the corner of his mouth and just laughed, not answering.Melvin kicked him in the stomach.Fred fell to the ground and rolled. It took a long time before he covered his stomach and struggled to get up."Sorry, Boss. Even if you beat me to death here today, I won't tell you Lyra's whereabouts.""When I find her, I'll come back and fix you."After saying that, Melvin left Fred's apartment, sending someone to put him in the apartment bedroom before leaving, and letting a bodyguard to keep an eye on him. Coming out of the apartment, Melvin immediately made a phone call."Jay, immediately check Lyra's flight last night and what her location would be. Be quick."He sat in the car and lit his cigarette with annoyance.When the eighth cigarette was smoked, the ph

    Melvin tilted his head to look at her and smiled in a pleasing way.Lyra gave him a deep look.Tonight he was really beatable. If she didn't beat him to cry, she can not endure this!She reached out and spread it out in front of him, "The belt."Melvin did not delay, unlocked the metal clasp immediately, handed her very obediently, and then turned his back to her.Lyra folded the belt in half and raised it high, as if to whip towards the already wounded back.But before the belt could be swung in her hand, her gaze unconsciously rested on the palm-sized burn on his back.The injury was bright red, which was quite hideous. It was too conspicuous, so it was difficult not to notice it.And the injury was caused when he protected her. Otherwise it was estimate that her face would get injured.Thinking of this, Lyra felt complex. It was as if there was a mysterious force that clamped her wrist that she can not do it.She sighed and was deflated suddenly, because she realized that she would

    The atmosphere in the room was suddenly subtle because of these words.Melvin was frozen in place and didn't move even his finger.Lyra's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled and her face was sullen, "Hurry up. I want to see the injury."Melvin was instantly deflated.Oh, it turned out to be just to see the injury. He was thinking too much.Wait...To see the injury?Why did she suddenly suspect his injury? Did Anthony say something to her?"My injury is fine. I've been medicated for the past two days, and I'm almost healed."Lyra coldly glanced at him, "Take it off!"Melvin didn't move, "It's bandaged. You can't see it when it's off.""Tear it down. Reapply the medicine later."She sounded resolute.This meant that she had to see it?Melvin didn't say a word and didn't move, wondering how he could put it off.Lyra saw right through him."Don't try to fool me tonight. You have to take it off!""Lyra, it warms my heart that you care about my injury, but it's too late tonight. It's better to

    Lyra didn't hide it either, "Yes, if not, how can I catch you?"Anthony smiled, which looked a little bleak."When did you start guarding against me?""From the moment you took out the revolver and asked me to choose between Melvin and Charlotte. I felt something was wrong with you."How dared she suspect him from that moment on?Anthony stared at her and was somewhat incredulous.She continued expressionlessly, "It wasn't until the last time you were leaving Frayton, I accidentally saw the man in black in the hallway of Fantalure Bar. Coupled with the acid incident that day, I suspected you had a connection with the one in the Lloyd family who tried to kill me."Anthony smiled miserably, "So it is.""Anthony, you are indeed the only person I ever admired when I was a kid. But why do you want to kill me?"He shook his head and was still in denial, "I don't. Your family announced your death before. You don't know how sad I was. I didn't know you are alive until half a month ago, and on

    Only after seeing he was faint did the man with the ghostly face take off his mask.In the moonlight, the man's dark eyes were cold and, looking at Anthony with bloodlust.Chad came up and asked, "Boss, how to deal with him?""Tie up the two and throw them in the car. As for Anthony ..."Melvin stopped speaking and his eyes narrowed. And his expression was ruthless, "Hang him up and take him to the hut prepared in advance. Lyra will be here in 10 minutes or so at the soonest. Before she comes, torture him first.""Yes."Anthony was forcibly awakened by cold water.When he woke up, he found his hands tied, hanging backwards from behind to the beam of a broken hut. His feet could touch the ground, barely to keep his weight in place with his tiptoe.This posture was very tired. His arms were be sore and unbearable. If hanging on for an hour, the arms can be painful to dislocation. The armpits will be bruised and swollen.He gave a light laugh.This kind of torture, at first glance, was t

    Lyra's expression gradually froze, staring at him in disbelief.The tone was a bit gloomy."You don't even believe me?"Anthony snorted, "Silly girl, I'm kidding with you. Of course I trust you, but did you or Melvin prepare this wine? I can't trust him."Lyra showed him the red wine glass that was already empty in her hand."I drank it all, and if the wine was tampered with, it should have been me who fall first."Anthony did not speak, shook the glass of red wine in his hand and still did not drinking.Lyra was a little upset. She muttered and looked at the whole bottle of red wine next to her, "Do you want me to finish the whole bottle of red wine like you did last time? So you can believe me?" Anthony was silent.Lyra felt wronged and acted rashly to reach for the entire bottle of wine on the table.Anthony stopped her, "I believe you. Even if this bottle of wine is poison, I will drink it, because you are beautiful poison to me, and I have long been intoxicated."He smiled doting

    This contentious gaze continued for several minutes.Lyra was caught in the middle and looked the two men over separately.Melvin, who was free from the effect of 023, seemed to be slightly more aggressive than Anthony, and his eyes were colder and more hostile.She was a bit speechless.They just met. She didn't know what would happen next.She coughed heavily to divert the attention of the two.And she gestured Anthony to look to the dining room, and said in a soft voice, "Anthony look, the dishes are ready. I also prepared two bottles of good red wine. We have not dunk for a long time. Let's get hammered.""Great."Anthony withdrew his gaze from the competition with Melvin and looked at Lyra with tenderness, walking with her to the dining room and taking a seat."You're so good. These dishes smell so good. I wasn't too hungry, but now I have a great appetite.""As long as you like it."Melvin remained standing in the stairs, watching their interaction.Even though Lyra had told him

    As soon as Elizabeth saw Anthony bring the police officers in, she instantly sank into the sofa.She had clearly heard from her acquaintance at the police department that Anthony was leaving Frayton, so why hadn't he left yet? With Anthony here, she was afraid it would be a difficult day.The Harrington family's of bodyguards quickly got frightened after the group of police officers rushed in with electric batons.Ashley also sat on the floor being utterly depressed.However, Anthony came in and kept his eyes looking at Lyra.He walked over to Lyra and sat next to her, sitting upright and straight.Lyra subconsciously frowned, but soon withdrew her unknown emotions, and looked at Elizabeth and Ashley again."Ashley, I don't bother to continue the nonsense. In short, for the things you and the Harrington family committed, the police department should have its own judgement. And you have to pay back my money with interests. If you don't have enough money, then sell the property and mort

    "So it's you! How did you get in?"Lyra elegantly played with her nails and replied lazily, "I just let my bodyguard inform the housekeeper and walk in directly from the front door." The housekeeper let her in?The old housekeeper who had been with her family for so many years had been bribed so quickly?Ashley glared at her with indignation.Lyra guessed what she was thinking and said, "It's called loss of supporters. Today is the day your family fell from power. Of course they know what to do."Ashley was so angry that she gritted her teeth and stood up from the floor, "You bitch! You've gone too far! You think the Harrington family will fall easily if you harm us in this way? You are dreaming!" "Harm you?"Lyra sneered, "That's not harm. I'm just bringing your family's dirty things out into the open. If you're innocent, you can't be afraid of these things.""You!"Ashley was furious, but Lyra was right. For the news about the Harrington Group and the things between Elizabeth and Wa

    Discount?So, he was kind of begging for mercy?Lyra pursed her lips and laughed lightly. He just accepted the punishment and was quite tough. Now he was frightened. She thought he was not afraid of pain.Without speaking, she went to unbuckle the belt.Melvin tried to hide, but his arms were pressed by her. Finally he could only bury his face in the comforter again, feeling disheartened.It looked like she didn't agree to a lighter penalty...Just now he used all his strength to fight the pain of removing the rotting flesh in the wound, and now his body was weak and feeble.If he was really whipped by Twelve in the garden for two hundred times, he would faint, right?If he fainted, Lyra would certainly notice that something was wrong, and may also take the opportunity to check his injury. It had been three days, and the injury of sulfuric acid was clearly different from his injury on his back. Lyra was sagacious. It can not be hidden certainly.As he was thinking, Lyra had already un
