Ashley nodded seriously and started working on the arrangements the next day.When she went to talk to the head of Oceania Construction, she was told, "Sorry, Atimber Property has already raised the price to 100 million, so we can't give you the goods... Could you add some money?" For this large batch of building materials, Atimber Property can actually raise the price to 100 million!?Were they out of their minds!?But it was good that their money was invested in the construction of the suburban land in the west of the city, which meant that they were very interested in this land, almost using all the money of the entire company.Once the cooperation did not go on, they would only lose money and declare bankruptcy, and the land would only be the Freeman Group's.Thinking of this, she didn't hesitate to slap the table, "The Freeman Group can add up to 150 million and take the shipment."The head of Oceania Construction was a bit disgusted."This... business is about credibility after
Melvin's eyes looked complicated.He thought about it and his tone became more firm, "Tomorrow, I have to go back to Frayton!"Chad didn't answer, gritted his teeth, and took advantage of Melvin's current weakness to chop him in the back of the head.With a muffled grunt, Melvin passed out on the spot.Several other men saw it and were scared to death, "Chad, do you want to die!? When boss wakes up, he won't let you go off."Chad's eyes looked firm and he knelt at Melvin's feet in a disciplined manner."If I don't do this, boss will crawl back to Frayton. He is now seriously injured, and still has fever. I can not take his life to risk this. Even if he wants to kill me later, I admit it!"The others sighed helplessly and said nothing ultimately.Two days later.The Freeman group president's office.Through the door, one can hear the shrill sound of things being dropped inside.Ashley glanced at the broken coffee cups on the floor and said nicely, "Fiona, please calm down. We must have
"What's the solution?"Ashley pressed her hand and gently soothed her, finally taking the phone out of her hand and setting it aside."While the Freeman group is not in full crisis, sell your shares at a high price!""How can that be!?"Fiona's eyes widened, "I can't sell my shares! I'm still counting on them for my retirement, and if I sell them, I won't have a voice in the Freeman group! Absolutely not!"Ashley sighed and continued to reassure her, "You are confused. If the Freeman group really can't survive this crisis, your shares will be wasted in your hands, and you can rest assured that the sale of shares is only temporary!"Fiona wavered a little."Temporary?"Ashley saw her fall into the trap and continued, "I will try And by then the shares can be bought back again.""Consider it a temporary deposit with the buyer. When this crisis passes and my cousin comes back, he will surely be happy to see that you have the company in order."Fiona did not speak and fell into a long ti
Lyra was slightly silent for a while, smiled and said, "If you're out, sooner or later you'll have to pay back, and Melvin is no exception." Garrett was finally relieved to hear that.She will seek repayment from Melvin for what happened in the past, but she didn't say she would retaliate against him for Irene.She did care for him after all, didn't she?Now that she was just mad at him because Irene, and he still had a chance!Having figured it out, Garrett stood up happily, "Lyra don't worry. I'll change all these problems, and I'm willing to wait, as long as you turn back, I'll always be there."After he finished, he left.Lyra held her forehead and was speechless.It looked like he still didn't quite get her point...Forget it. She'll explain later when she had a chance.In the following days, Ashley claimed that she had to check to various construction sites every day, and was almost absent from the company, and never came back to report on the progress of her work. If Fiona call
The two looked at the door. Lyra was in a black pearl satin velvet dress. She pursed her red lips slightly, which was beautiful beyond comparison.Two handsome and sturdy bodyguards were followed with strong aura.Ashley saw her and gnashed her teeth with hatred. The humiliation of being publicly beaten in the face was still fresh in her mind."This is the Freeman group. What are you doing here!?"She walked over towards Ashley, who was speaking, "With all that's happened to the company, someone lives on the Freeman while helping Harrington Group secretly annex the Freeman group. Of course I should come over and preside the show.""Preside the show? With just you?"Ashley was amused."You have divorced your my cousin. You are no longer a member of the Freeman family, and the shares given to you by old Freeman were taken away by Fiona. So you have no voice here. Get out!"She said it and unconsciously glanced at the bodyguards behind Lyra. Now she can't beat this bitch.But when she wa
Lyra laughed at that."If it wasn't for me, the Freeman group would have to be named Harrington in the future. And instead of thanking me, you want to try to piss me off?" "What do you mean?"The Freeman group was given it to her, which was the same as giving it to an outsider.Fiona froze and understood something else, softened her tone and said, "Could it be... that you want to remarry my son?"If she remarried, she will still be a member of the Freeman family, and the Freeman group will naturally still be a part of the Freeman family.Lyra's eyes gradually cold down, not allowing others to put in a word, "Remarriage is not possible. It's impossible in my life."After all, he didn't deserve it."So what the hell do you want?" Fiona couldn't figure it out."For the sake of the old Freeman, the general policy of the company will remain unchanged, and I will keep the name of the group, which will remain the Freeman group. You can buy back the Freeman group from me if you have the abili
Hanging up the phone, Melvin instructed Chad and the others to return to their positions and wait for orders, while he quickly rushed to the Freeman group.It was already the end of the day, so there were not many people in the company. He went all the way unhindered, directly up to the top floor of the president's office. When he opened the door, the entire room's decoration was almost completely changed.Unlike the black and white style he liked in the past, the sofa was green and the tablecloth of the coffee table was also green.He hated the color and subconsciously frowned.And in front of the desk, there was a slender figure sitting with its back to him."Mr. Freeman, long time no see!"Seemingly hearing him push in, the woman swiveled her chair and looked at him with a beaming smile."Surprised to see me sitting in your seat? Surprised?"Melvin pursed his thin lips and stared at the woman in front of him for a moment.He hadn't seen her for half a month. And her face seemed to
Melvin gave a sarcastic laugh.This was a so-called right to choose. In fact, there was no choice.Because of the long hours of standing, the wound on his waist opened up and blood gurgled out of it, making him dizzy with pain.The innermost white shirt was stained and stuck uncomfortably to the wound.Luckily, with the black blazer covering it, Lyra didn't even notice.He compressed his thin lips and tried to smooth out his breathing so that no one could see the difference.Okay, it was only one year. He can afford it!He picked up the syringe, pulled his shirt sleeves up, aimed it at his arm, and injected it in hard as if he was venting. Lyra watched without saying a word and frowned when she saw him pushing very hard as if he was abusing himself. She heard that this would be very painful when injected, and she would like to see how long he can be proud.But in a few seconds, the drug directly went into his arm.Snap --It was the sound of a syringe falling to the floor.Melvin pres
When they saw Micah come out, everyone gathered around.Keith asked nervously, "Micah, how's it going?"Micah lowered his head and did not say a word. His face looked flat, so that they couldn't guess whether the test result was good or bad.Seeing this expression on his face, everyone was heart-wrenching.Lyra said resignedly, "Micah, just say it. Any outcome won't be much worse than now. I can take it."Micah remained silent and walked up to Lyra. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and hugged her tightly.His ever-cold and arrogant face had a rare smile, "Rara, my most precious sister. You're the Lloyd family's most honored daughter!" Once he said these words, everyone instantly fell relieved.Only Malcolm, who looked sullen, separated the two from each other in an embrace and took back his petite fiancee with him arms. "You're adults. Pay attention to the intimacy. Don't just hug like that.""You!" Lyra helplessly gazed at the jealous Malcolm. Her small hand quietly reached i
Seeing that it was Micah at the door, Lyra and Malcolm looked at each other. Obviously, neither of them didn't expect that it would be him. Micah's body was too wet.He was reluctant to go in and wet the carpet. So he was still standing by the door, and his usually cool eyes locked on Lyra.Lyra didn't quite understand. Remembering what happened at the Lloyd family the other day, she asked icily, "Why do you come over here without an umbrella? Is it an emergency?"Micah adjusted his breathing before saying, "Rara, I haven't come to you for the past few days because I was being watched. Tomorrow is the return party, so I have to get rid of the surveillance and sneak over."Lyra's heart softened for a moment and she turned her head to Malcolm, "Get Micah a thick bath towel and make some ginger tea.""OK."With a thick bath towel, Micah wrung the water from his body until it was half dry before entering the living room.Malcolm went to make ginger tea, and Lyra sat on the couch."Micah,
Ethel's face froze.After a while, she could only reluctantly lower her head, "Yes.""Good girl! That's what the daughter of Lloyd family is supposed to be." Keith smiled and stroked her head.After stroking her head perfunctorily, he took the lead and turned his head away, saying resentfully, "Change your clothes back. Your face is injured. You should not be able to choose today. We can come here another day."...Lyra made her way out of the shopping district.It wasn't until she got into the car that she opened her bag again and took out a small note.This was what Keith forced into her right hand when he was helping her just now.Unfolding the note, it contained only one sentence.[Give me some time.]Lyra's brows furrowed as she gazed silently at the nice handwriting.Why should he be given time?Did he find something and was he quietly investigating?As she was thinking about it, her phone rang and it was Malcolm's calling.Once the phone was connected, his voice sounded slightl
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
