Matthew was pale with fear, his hands tightly clutching Torin's neck, unable to recover for a while.

After a long time, he looked up and saw a pair of extremely anxious eyes.

Originally, Matthew wanted to act tough and say it was nothing, but seeing Torin so nervous and worried, he swallowed hard, "I'm fine... It doesn't hurt at all."

"It's good that you're okay, you scared me to death!" Torin didn't hide his panic and fear.

At the moment when Matthew landed, he was almost scared out of his wits.

He couldn't imagine how heartbroken Lyra would be if Matthew got hurt.

And how could he explain to Lyra?

"Matthew! Matthew!"

Lyra pushed aside the staff blocking her and ran over with a choked voice.

As soon as she saw Matthew, she hugged him tightly.

"Mia, I'm fine, don't cry."

Matthew recovered and saw Lyra's pale face, holding him tightly and crying nervously.

"Uncle Torin, we have professiona

    Torin walked downstairs, where his patiently waiting driver and attendant politely opened the car door. The gentle expression on Torin's face completely disappeared, replaced by a noble and composed demeanor. It made people unable to help but feel respect and closeness. "Your Excellency, today's incident was too dangerous," the attendant said. "It's a critical time for your presidential campaign, Your Excellency must remain vigilant at all times and cannot afford to make any mistakes." Torin replied lightly, "I am prudent." After Torin's car left, a black car parked in a secluded spot flashed with infrared light. A man cautiously looked at the photos in the camera, fantastic, he didn't expect to dig up such explosive news! The next day, a headline in a newspaper in S country read: "Explosive Revelation! Royal heir, the presidential candidate already has an illegitimate child!" The photo in the news captured a scene at t

    At noon, everyone went out for lunch. Lyra brought two heart-shaped lunch boxes and ate with Matthew in the office. After finishing their meal, Matthew took out colored paper and a pair of children's scissors from his small backpack, almost covering the entire table. The little boy was completely focused on cutting something on the table, looking very absorbed. "Matthew, what are you doing?" Lyra asked curiously. "I want to give you a gift," Matthew said proudly. "Today, the teacher taught us paper cutting, and I want to cut a cute little bunny like Mia." "I'm looking forward to it! I'll go wash the lunch boxes first, you stay here and play nicely," Lyra said as she took the lunch boxes out to wash. A moment later, she returned, and Matthew ran over happily to pull her over, then handed her a paper-cut rabbit. "Do you like it? This is the little rabbit I cut for you with my own hands, as a gift," Matthew said. L

    Lyra stood there, dejected. Thinking about all the terrible things Ronan had done to her in the past. He had hurt her over and over again. During the first two years of their marriage, he had indulged in debauchery with other women, and then forced her to stay. When she gave birth prematurely, he forcibly extracted her bone marrow from the operating table and used it to save Cordelia Locke. He only saw her as a tool to be used, ready to sacrifice her life for other women at any moment. Thinking about this, Lyra's body began to tremble violently. Ronan could tell from her expression what she was thinking. He said with a guilty tone, "Lyra, do you still hate me? I was wrong back then, and I regret it deeply. I shouldn't have forced you to donate bone marrow, almost killing you." His voice lowered, filled with deep fear and self-blame. "But look at Matthew, he's still so young. Can you bear to let him think

    Lyra dragged her heavy steps back to the office. Matthew's colored paper and children's scissors were still on the desk, along with the little rabbit he gave her. During the afternoon class, Lyra was constantly distracted. After enduring until the end of the day, she went to the supermarket to buy things but forgot to pay, almost being mistaken for a thief. She quickly paid and explained for a long time, and the security guard let her go without calling the police. Back at home, Matthew's toys were still scattered everywhere. Lyra tidied up the toys and made dinner. Sitting at the table, she couldn't muster up an appetite and put down her chopsticks after only a few bites. She hurriedly cleaned up the dishes and climbed into bed, but couldn't feel sleepy at all. Lyra picked up her phone, almost calling Matthew. She wanted to ask him if he wanted Daddy or Mommy. The phone vibrated, but it was just

    Later, he defeated Dorian Ashford by surprise attack, regained the position of President of Zenith Ventures. Cordelia Locke ran back to find him again, saying she was deceived by Dorian Ashford. She's shameless! How could he have been so blind as to lose Lyra for her? Since Cordelia Locke is so shameless, he might as well find her to vent his anger. Ronan's large hand holding the phone suddenly tightened, his handsome face darkened, and he said in a cold tone, "Do you need me to send someone to pick you up?" "No need, no need! I'll come over by myself!" Cordelia Locke was extremely excited, almost unable to believe what she was hearing. Ronan agreed to see her! He agreed to let her come to the Emperor Hotel! Doesn't this mean that Ronan has forgiven her? Cordelia Locke was overjoyed and couldn't help laughing out loud! After following Dorian Ashford as a mistress, Dorian Ashford initially treated

    Every day, she only ate white rice and vegetables, even feeding the scraps of meat to stray dogs. She said those stray dogs were pitiful. She couldn't even feed herself properly, yet she had the leisure to pity dogs? Cordelia Locke even boasted that her boyfriend was the master of the Emperor Hotel, ridiculous! For someone like her, thin and pale, lacking both dignity and figure, what kind of taste would the owner of the Emperor Hotel have to be interested in her? Even the job of street sweeping she had was arranged by the community out of pity for her. A woman like Cordelia Locke, let alone being a mistress in an unattainable mansion, even being a servant in the Emperor Hotel, the aunties wouldn't believe it! Such absurd words probably only fooled fools. In front of everyone, the auntie demanded that Cordelia Locke provide evidence to prove she had been to the Emperor Hotel. Otherwise, she would be considered a

    "The young master is waiting for you, hurry up!" Zane the butler urged impatiently. Cordelia Locke said awkwardly, "Can you help me pay the taxi fare first?" Zane the butler frowned and looked at the taxi driver outside. "The fare!" The driver spread his hands, saying unhappily. "I'll pay you back later!" Cordelia Locke said, her neck turning red. Zane the butler took out some money from his bag and handed it to the driver. "It's double the fare! She promised to pay me double for bringing her here," the driver grumbled discontentedly. Zane the butler handed over another bill, and only then did the driver take the money and leave. "Now can we go?" Zane the butler said, not hiding his annoyance. He didn't understand what the young master was thinking, mistaking a fish for a pearl! To think that for such a lowly woman, he caused the death of the young mistress. Cordelia Locke followed Zane the butle

    Cordelia Locke bit her lip and walked to the side of the swimming pool. It was still pouring rain, and this man actually wanted her to bathe in the pool. She clutched her clothes tightly, feeling so upset that she could hardly breathe. "Watch her wash, and don't let her come up until she's been in there for an hour," Ronan heartlessly ordered before turning and walking back into the house. Two servants blocked Cordelia Locke's view at the door, preventing her from seeing inside the main building of the Emperor Hotel. "Hurry up and wash, didn't you hear what the young master said?" the servant said impatiently. The torrential rain continued, with large raindrops relentlessly falling. Cordelia Locke bit her lip, tossed away the umbrella, took off her cleaner's uniform, and walked into the swimming pool. She felt deeply insulted, but she couldn't bring herself to leave now. The icy rain kept pounding on her face.

    “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?"

    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
