The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 15：Confess to him
Torin fell silent for a moment, struggling to suppress his rage. Then, he started the car and drove back to his apartment. Seeing Lyra in that state, he was determined not to leave her alone, worried that something might happen to her, considering she might have other injuries.Throughout the journey, Lyra buried her face in Torin's suit jacket and curled up tightly in the passenger seat, trying to minimize her presence.Arriving at the underground parking lot of the apartment building, Torin carried Lyra out of the car. Afraid of being seen in her disheveled state, she kept her small face tightly pressed against Torin's chest. Fortunately, they encountered no one along the way.After entering the apartment and hearing the sound of the door locking, Torin settled Lyra on the sofa, but she immediately leaped up. With her head hung low, allowing her long hair to shield her distressed face, she said hesitantly, "I feel uncomfortable. I want to take a shower..."As she spoke, her voice tr
The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 16：Sudden Situation
Torin's gentle tone carried an indescribable tenderness as he said, "I like you."Lyra was stunned.Torin's facial features were extremely soft, with an inexplicable tenderness in his eyes. He looked into her eyes and said in a warm voice,"I'll treat you well. I only like you, and my eyes and heart belong only to you. I will never look at another woman. Can someone like me like you?"When Torin's car arrived at the neighborhood where Lyra rented, Lyra's mind was in a haze.Torin unbuckled his seatbelt, took out a plastic bag from the backseat, and took out all the medicine boxes from inside. He softly instructed her about which medicines were for external use and which ones were for ingestion.Lyra's face didn't react, but her mind was in turmoil, like a chaotic fight."I like you.""I'll only like you.""I won't let anyone hurt you.""You don't have to rush to give me an answer; I can wait for you."From childhood to adulthood, she had never experienced love, and nobody had treated
The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 17：Two men meet again
Two men who never saw eye to eye finally left.Lyra returned to her grandmother's bedside, physically and mentally exhausted. The doctor mentioned that her grandmother's dementia had worsened, and her moments of clarity would become increasingly scarce.At that moment, her grandmother seemed to have a rare moment of lucidity, recognizing Ronan...Lyra called Torin to request time off, expressing her desire to stay at the hospital to care for her grandmother.Torin agreed, reminding her to take care of herself.He had been busy these days, advancing plans to deal with Ronan.He needed to strike Ronan hard to prevent his collusion with Casimir Graves from S country.Torin deeply realized that to win a woman, a man needed sufficient strength.For several consecutive days, Lyra stayed at the hospital looking after her grandmother.Her grandmother's mind became muddled again, not even recognizing Lyra.At noon, while returning with a meal, Lyra heard voices coming from the ward.She was su

Orion Everly's car had just entered the hospital gate when another car brushed past him.Orion Everly paused for a moment. Why did that car resemble Ronan's vehicle a bit? Was he here to visit Lyra's grandmother?Orion Everly immediately shook his head. Ronan had been carousing outside for two years since his marriage. How could he possibly be visiting the hospital to see Lyra's grandmother?Perhaps he was mistaken!In Lyra's mind, she once again firmly decided to divorce. Divorce, it must happen!She was gritting her teeth, consumed by anger when suddenly the door to the hospital room was pushed open again. She looked up in surprise, "Dad?"Orion Everly entered the room and upon seeing Lyra, immediately spoke in a stern voice, "Lyra, what are you doing here?"Upon hearing this, Lyra subconsciously clenched her fists, "Grandma is critically ill. The hospital called the Xia family, and my aunt informed me."Orion Everly frowned, "The family was busy lately, so we couldn't come to see G
The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 19：Lumi's Provocation
A heavy atmosphere hung over Zenith Ventures.Ronan's mood was exceptionally foul today. During the meeting, he scolded each member of the company's top management.Finally, throwing the folders in hand, he said, 'If you can't improve this plan, I'll send all of you to our African branch so you can experience what it's like to start from scratch!'Everyone tried their best to avoid the CEO's office today so, as not to be affected by his mood.The assistant looked extremely apprehensive, as people from Emperor Mansion never called the company.Unexpectedly, today, Zane, the butler, made an unusual call, reporting on the young madam's situation.The assistant nervously handed the phone to Ronan.Unexpectedly, the man, whose expression was initially dark, frowned fiercely upon hearing the first sentence, then kicked his chair and left.Ronan returned to Emperor Mansion, casually throwing his coat to a servant."She hasn’t eaten today?"Zane respectfully replied, "No, Madam refuses to eat
The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 20：Welcome To His World
Ronan kicked Lumi Hawthorne away with disgust and said coldly, "Slap her!"Two strong maids immediately stepped forward; one held Lumi Hawthorne down while the other fiercely slapped her face.Lumi Hawthorne's face was slapped dozens of times in an instant, red and purple, covered in overlapping fingerprints."Let me go, I was wrong, I beg you!" Lumi Hawthorne cried out, losing all her previous arrogance.After the beating stopped, the maids escorted Lumi Hawthorne to the backyard.A moment later, there were cries for help and terrifying barking from the dogs.The sound, seemingly from hell, put the servants of the Imperial Garden on edge."Sir, the person has been thrown into Apollo's cage," the steward Zane respectfully reported.Ronan abruptly turned his head, his icy gaze suddenly sharpening. "Since when has the Imperial Garden become an open place for anyone to enter and leave at will? If I'm asleep at night, can anyone just come in?"Zane was terrified, his heart pounding with f
The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 21：Eye Contact
Lyra sat for a while and felt a bit thirsty. She reached out to take one of the clean cups placed on the table. Suddenly, a woman snatched the cup ahead of her, casting a disdainful glance at Lyra without a hint of sincerity in her apology: "Sorry, Mrs. Ronan."That woman deliberately emphasized the "Mrs. Ronan," her tone filled with sarcasm. Lyra lowered her eyes slightly and reached for another cup. However, another woman mimicked the first, snatching the cup away. On the table was a teapot of fruit flower tea. As the woman grabbed for the cup, her arm deliberately brushed against the teapot, causing it to tip over and spill scalding hot tea onto Lyra's leg."Ah!" Lyra jumped up, the redness of a burn spreading across her fair skin.Ronan, who had been playing cards, froze for a moment. He immediately threw his cards aside and rushed over, scooping Lyra up in his arms and heading swiftly to the restroom.Twisting the faucet open, he continuously poured cold water onto Lyra's leg, hi
The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 22：Heartbroken Again
"Humph!The only one worthy of Ronan is Octavia Everly!"Octavia Everly sweetly exclaimed, "Brother-in-law!" Then, she took hold of Ronan's other arm."Brother-in-law, I want to learn how to dance. Could you teach me?" She widened her beautiful eyes, pretending to be innocent.Ronan had little impression of the youngest daughter of the Everly Family and replied nonchalantly, "You should ask my wife about that. If she agrees, then I don't mind."Only then did Octavia Everly turn to look at Lyra, as if she had just noticed her, with a surprised expression. "Sister? Weren't you living in the villa? It's my first time seeing you at this kind of party."Lyra's expression remained unchanged; she clearly understood Octavia Everly's sarcasm about her not being favored by Ronan. But she truly didn't care.She responded indifferently, "I don't live there anymore."Octavia Everly was initially pleased to hear this, but immediately after, Lyra casually added, "I moved to the Emperor Manor."What!

“Mia, do you want to go camping with us?” Matthew looked at her expectantly.Lyra pursed her lips, unable to refuse him."Sure, I'll go with you," she agreed."Great, we can go camping!" Matthew cheered.Matthew was ecstatic, lying on Lyra's chest and refusing to get up.His little head kept rubbing against her, and his innocent and cute voice said, "Mia, I haven't taken a bath today..."Lyra's heart melted as she carried Matthew to the bathroom, helped him bathe, and even used cotton swabs and a nail file to clean his ears.Matthew comfortably lay on Lyra's lap, chubby hands poking at her soft chest, enjoying her help in cleaning his ears.Having a wife is nice!Unlike Dad, who doesn't have a wife and wears a constipated expression every day.Seeing his adorable face, Lyra couldn't help but kiss his cheek.The little guy blushed."Matthew, do you like your dad?" Lyra asked tentatively.She and Ronan were not possible anymore. In the future, she would have to fight for Matthew's custo

Today he has already taken her several times, and if he takes her again, he's afraid her body won't be able to handle it.Adjusting his breath, Ronan leaned against Lyra's ear, still panting slightly."The account for today's deeds is temporarily unpaid, but I'll collect it from you later."His cool lips left a mark, capturing her sweet scent, and his large hand uncontrollably climbed under the covers.This woman had a kind of irresistible charm.Even her breathing seemed to tempt him, turning him into a beast, always wanting to take action against her, completely out of control.Ronan had never experienced anything like this with any woman before.As the CEO of Zenith Ventures, Ronan was never short of women around him; to say beautiful women were abundant would be an understatement.Celebrities, aristocratic ladies, ladies from noble families...But none of them, like Lyra, could provoke his desires so easily.Five years ago, he knew that her body was made for him, perfectly fitting

He forcefully shut off the shower, while Lyra reached out to turn it back on.Ronan firmly grasped her hand, his anger on the brink of eruption, each word squeezed out through his teeth, "Lyra, you better not provoke me again!"Lyra slowly turned her head, glancing at Ronan.She stood there, motionless, like a statue, her eyes empty.After a while, Lyra blankly looked up and noticed that there was no more water coming out of the shower.She reached out, wanting to turn it back on.Ronan's voice was as cold as his expression, "If you don't stop, I'll immediately send the video to your lover!"At his words, Lyra's whole body tensed, halting her attempt to turn the switch."Come here!" Ronan ordered coldly.Lyra's body felt heavy as if it were filled with lead, she forced herself to walk towards Ronan.One step, two steps... she almost exhausted all her strength, finally reaching him."Think I'm dirty? Huh?" Ronan pinched her chin, his eyes wild.In the past five years, he hadn't touched

"If you don't comply..." Ronan's voice trailed off, deliberately leaving the threat unsaid, his intentions clear.Lyra's lips quivered fiercely in response.Ronan was satisfied with her reaction and spoke with a smirk, "It's no big deal to show him, anyway. You're my wife, we've rolled in the sheets countless times, he knows it all.""I promise you," Lyra gritted her teeth, "I promise you, but you can't let him see the video."Suddenly, Ronan felt as if something had lodged in his chest. Lyra cared about Torin so much!Despite having the upper hand, Ronan felt utterly shattered."Since you've promised, show me your sincerity, this time it's your initiative," Ronan's voice echoed seductively in her ears.Lyra's chest trembled as she looked at him incredulously.This beastly man, she wished she could just stab him to death!But she also knew she couldn't fight this man right now.He held her weakness in his hands.Lyra mockingly tugged at her lip, slowly moving her body.Her legs ached

She reached for the bedside table lamp, but her wrist was easily caught by him. He sneered, "Do you think I'll give you a chance to smash my head?" "Get out! Get out!" Lyra's eyes turned red as if she had gone mad. But her strength couldn't match Ronan's. He was like a spider in a web, trapping Lyra tightly, leaving her with no chance of escape. For the first time, Lyra felt the immense disparity in strength between a man and a woman. She was no match for Ronan at all. Gasping for air heavily, Lyra struggled to sit up again, but Ronan forcefully pressed her back down. Lyra's body was being torn apart incessantly, and she almost thought she would be tortured to death. Tears streamed uncontrollably down her face. After what seemed like an eternity, the brutal abuse finally ceased. Ronan lay atop her, his breath thick and heavy. Lyra lay there like a lifeless puppet, her eyes hollow with despair, tears lingering at the corners. Her body was covered in red marks, bearing the tr

!Lyra was stunned by his shameless words and promptly turned away, ignoring him. Ronan's cheek became thicker and thicker, and he seemed to have no shame. Even though Lyra ignored him, he didn't get angry, continuing to gaze at her. Feeling uncomfortable under his gaze, Lyra suddenly saw Matthew sitting up, rubbing his eyes, and jumping off the bed. Lyra quickly asked, "Matthew, what's wrong?" Still half-asleep, Matthew's tender voice murmured, "I need to pee." "I'll take you." Lyra, not knowing how to avoid Ronan, offered. With his eyes closed, Matthew replied with a sleepy "mm." Just as Lyra was about to take him to the bathroom, Ronan suddenly picked up their son, his deep, melodious voice saying, "I'll take him." As the father and son left, Lyra suddenly felt it was a perfect opportunity and quietly left the children's room, heading to her guest room. Sitting on the edge of the bed, Lyra felt extremely nervous, feeling that Ronan had malicious intentions. But now that s

Lyra turned her head and found Matthew already running into room 2016, her brow furrowed, and she hurriedly followed.In the room, Matthew climbed onto the bed, continuously pushing Ronan with his hands, shouting anxiously, "Daddy! Daddy!"Ronan lay on the bed dressed neatly, luckily they arrived in time; it seemed that Cordelia Locke hadn't succeeded.Matthew's pushing and shouting didn't elicit any response from Ronan, and he became increasingly worried, his little face scrunching up, on the verge of tears, as he cried out, "Mommy, mommy! Has daddy gone away?"Matthew's crying tugged at Lyra's heartstrings, her own heart pounding hard in her chest.Had Ronan...?She forced herself to calm down, walking over to Ronan's side and placing her hand gently on his attractive, steady nose.Thankfully!He was still breathing!It seemed he was just knocked unconscious.Lyra quickly took out her phone and dialed 911, simultaneously calling the hotel's room service to send someone over immediat

Even though Ronan was dressed neatly and lay quietly like a wooden man without giving any response, resembling a sleeping beauty.Cordelia Locke still couldn't resist his charm and excitedly straddled him, involuntarily moaning."Mmm... Ronan... so good..."Suddenly, someone outside the door started frantically ringing the doorbell.Cordelia Locke, who was immersed in excitement, was interrupted by the sudden ringing, making her very unhappy.Originally, she didn't want to pay attention and pretended there was no one in the room.But then she considered that if it was a room service attendant who saw no one inside, they might just swipe their card to enter.So she decided to send away the person outside first, and then come back to enjoy Ronan's body.The person outside suddenly changed tactics and began pounding on the door with their hands.Startled by the unexpected noise, Cordelia Locke hugged the towel around her and cautiously walked to the door, peering outside through the peep

Finally, the car arrived at the Grandeur Gala Hub clubhouse after twenty minutes. Lyra and Matthew approached the entrance but were stopped by a doorman. "I'm sorry, this is an exclusive private club. Only members are allowed inside," the doorman said, blocking their way. Lyra hurriedly explained, "We're here to find someone." "Even if you're looking for someone, you can't come in. Why don't you call your friend and have them come out to meet you?" the doorman refused to let them in. "What's a member?" Matthew asked, his little brows furrowing. The doorman glanced at him. Although he was just a child, his demeanor and attire were extraordinary, so the doorman politely replied: "A member is a VIP member who needs to pay an annual fee of one million." Lyra gasped, calculating the balance in her bank account. But no matter how she calculated, it was not enough. She hesitated, remembering that Torin had given her a card before, but she had never used it. Should she take it out n
