Lyra frowned, taking off her headphones, and grumbled, "Don't you have hands? Want coffee, make it yourself."

"Lyra, I said I want coffee." Ronan squinted, repeating himself, clearly intent on not backing down if she disagreed.

Frustrated, Lyra reluctantly got out of bed, wearing slippers, preparing to make him coffee.

"Didn't Octavia Everly just bring a cup?" she grumbled discontentedly.

"You dare to talk back?" Ronan looked disgusted, shouting at her angrily, "Make it and bring it to the study. Don't try any tricks!"

After reprimanding Lyra, Ronan returned to the study, brooding in anger.

That darn Lyra, would she dare to push him toward other women again?

The phone suddenly rang on the table with a "ding-ding-ding." Ronan picked it up, growling impatiently, "Who is it?"

"It's Torin," came a composed male voice from the other end of the line.

Ronan narrowed his dark eyes, lightly raising an eyebrow as he held the phone, "So it's Torin. What can I do for you?"

"I'm here to inform you

    "Sir, should we chase after them?" The bodyguard asked timidly.Ronan looked expressionless as he watched the car vanish into the distance, coldly saying, "Chase after what? She wanted to leave by herself. Do I need to stop her?"Inside the car, an awkward silence prevailed. After a long while, Lyra spoke softly, "Torin, take me back to my old rental house."Torin moved his lips but ultimately didn't say a word.The car stopped at the entrance of the dilapidated neighborhood. Lyra lowered her gaze, staring at her knees, and after a while, she said, "Torin, thank you, but now...""Lyra, you don't need to say anything." Torin abruptly interrupted her.Torin's face remained as gentle as ever. "Lyra, you're tired. Go back, rest, sleep, don't think about anything."Lyra lowered her head, feeling an intense emotion swirling within her. After a while, she managed to suppress the tears welling up in her eyes and softly said, "Then, I'll go.""Goodbye," he said gently.Her strength seemed to h

    Octavia Everly was taken aback, and then a look of resentment emerged in her eyes, "How could you treat me like this? I'm not just any girl. Last night was my first time!"Ronan firmly held her chin, staring into her eyes, "You came to my villa, took off your clothes, and climbed onto my bed. Can you blame me for taking advantage of you?"A chill ran down her spine, forcing herself to meet Ronan's gaze, which made her feel uneasy."Last night, you didn't take any safety measures. What if I ended up pregnant with your child? ZenithVentures still doesn't have an heir..."Ronan's cold lips curled slightly. "Do you think I would give you that chance?""But you can't treat me like this! I gave you my innocence, you have to take responsibility!" Octavia Everly's voice suddenly became sharp.Ronan looked at her with a mocking smile. When she finished yelling, he removed the smile from his face and said coldly, "Ronan looked at her with a smirk that didn't quite reach his eyes. After she fin

    she exclaimed, walking over and pushing him, "Ronan, get up, you're not welcome here!"Ronan, eyes closed, extended his hand to pull her into his embrace, tightening his grip around her, his voice languid, "Lyra, be good. I'm too tired. I'll join you for TV once I wake up.""Who said I want you to watch TV with me? Get up!" Lyra pushed him away.The man's strong arm was like an iron bucket; Lyra could hardly break free. Finally extricated, she darted into the living room, patting her wildly beating heart.That guy seemed to have fallen asleep!Annoyed, Lyra scratched her head, resigning herself to a good deed by sheltering him for the night!She fetched a blanket and settled herself on the couch in the living room for the night.The next morning, as Lyra woke up, she opened her eyes only to find Ronan's deep black gaze, startling her to the brink of jumping up."What are you doing, trying to scare me?" she barked at him, exasperated.Ronan sounded somewhat aggrieved, "Sorry, dear. I t

    Ronan casually plopped down on the couch, saw the TV screen showing a blue screen, and casually picked up the remote to turn it off."Is the TV broken?" he asked nonchalantly.Lyra scratched her head, "It was working fine just now, but suddenly lost signal.""What were you watching?" He picked up a magazine titled "Design World" and flipped through it."Watching a variety show."Ronan breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, this woman never cared about the news; she only knew how to watch design books and variety shows."Enough." Lyra tossed her head, irritated at how she and Ronan ended up having a conversation."You need to leave; you're not welcome here!" She asserted firmly.Ronan set aside the magazine and glanced casually at her. He raised the back of his hand; there was a prominent red mark on his usually sleek and attractive hand."You've bruised my hand like this, and now you want to chase me out?" He squinted, "Do you believe I'll report you for domestic violence?"Lyra was spee

    Ronan immediately panicked. "Darling, you've got it all wrong. That day I drank too much, I didn't know anything, it was Octavia Everly who came to the villa by herself...""Enough!"Lyra's lips trembled, her fists clenched tightly, and she yelled at Ronan with force, "Ronan, I never want to see you again!"She turned her head. "Torin, let's go!"Torin looked coldly at the disheveled Ronan, sneered disdainfully, and pulled Lyra away."Stop!" Ronan became anxious and rushed up, delivering a punch to Torin's face regardless of everything.Torin spat out some blood but retaliated without hesitation.The reporters' camera flashes didn't stop.The two of them, disregarding the presence of the reporters and their own identities, exchanged blows, one after another, like ancient gladiators, settling their grievances in the most primitive manner.Lyra's anger boiled within her, her chest felt tight, and a dull pain radiated from her lower abdomen. "Stop fighting, please..."Suddenly, everythin

    It was the first time in Ronan's life that he didn't contradict his grandfather.Soren Vale widened his mouth, thinking he was hallucinating."Grandpa, actually I..." Lyra was about to speak up about the divorce, but Ronan suddenly embraced her, whispering, "Grandpa has a heart condition. He's happy now. If you bring bad news, he might get a heart attack."Lyra looked at Ronan skeptically; the old man didn't seem sick at all.However, seeing Ronan's serious expression, she didn't want to take the risk.Soren Vale, observing the couple whispering, assumed their relationship was excellent, feeling ecstatic.He kept telling Lyra, "Lyra, you're the most important in the entire Mo family. If anyone dares to bully you, let me know. Grandpa will support you!"After saying that, he warned Ronan with his eyes.Lyra had to comply, saying, "I understand, Grandpa."Ronan bluntly ushered, "Lyra needs rest, you should leave!""You little brat, you infuriate me!" The old man was furious, puffing his

    Would she and he meet again in the future?Perhaps they would!Many years later, they might pass each other on the street.But for now, she was tired, and in excruciating pain.Leaving without saying goodbye was the best choice."Madam, you're back?" The driver politely inquired. He had just opened the car door when he turned and saw Lyra collapse on the ground."Madam!" The driver was frightened and immediately helped her into the car, planning to take her to the hospital first.Hospital? Which hospital?Suddenly realizing, the driver smacked his forehead. Mayo Medical Center!The young master often went to Mayo Medical Center, right?He decided to take Madam there since the young master and the doctors there were familiar.Ronan happened to be at the Mayo Medical Center at this moment. He received a call in the morning informing him of Cordelia Locke's critical condition and rushed to see her.Unexpectedly, before he reached the inpatient department, he received a call from the driv

    In the afternoon, Ronan didn't come to accompany Lyra, and she didn't ask him where he was going.Just about to rest well, Dr. Kael knocked on the door."Lyra, are you available now?" Dr. Kael's attitude was warm."Yes, what's the matter?" Lyra asked in confusion."Well, I want to talk to you about your medical examination." Dr. Kael smiled."I received the examination report."Lyra took out the examination report, glanced at the various data on it, and asked, "Is there a problem?""It's like this." Dr. Kael pushed his glasses and looked at the gentlewoman in front of him. "You not only have anemia but also some malnutrition. You must take good care of yourself, especially now that you're pregnant. You can be discharged now."Lyra nodded. "I understand."She thought to herself that she had to pull herself together, especially for the sake of her baby, and take good care of herself.After Dr. Kael finished speaking, there was a hesitant expression on his face, as if there was something

    “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
