Emily Thompson screamed, "This is impossible!"

Calla calmly said, "You claimed to be close with the Love Series designer, and now you're slapped in the face, right?"

Everyone was extremely surprised.

The Love Series has been popular recently due to its unique design and limited availability. It was now challenging to find in the market.

Calla proudly said, "However, our Lyra has retired from the scene. This is called, 'Even though the sister is not in the arena, the legend of the sister still exists!'"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Emily Thompson, enraged, stuffed her necklace into her clothes and gritted her teeth, "So what if she's the designer? A woman's real skill is in marrying a good husband."

At this point, Emily Thompson looked at Benjamin Turner and said, "Honey, isn't there a single employee in your department without a partner? Why not introduce Lyra to him!"

Someone nearby curiously asked, "How old is he?"

    The class president was so excited! He had mentioned that Ronan looked familiar, but couldn't recall where he had seen him. Ahem, President Ronan had not been involved in any scandals for almost half a year, and he hadn't appeared in gossip magazines. So, the class president finally recognized him. The crowd was shaken, and those who didn't understand pulled aside those who did to get the details. Heavens! The president of ZenithVentures! The head of an international conglomerate with assets in the billions! And he looks so young and handsome! He married their university classmate and is having a meal with them?

    Emily Thompson immediately got angry and said, "When did we say we won't pay? Bring the bill!" The manager gestured, and a waiter quickly brought the bill. While pulling out her card, Emily Thompson disdainfully said, "Just a few tens of thousands? I can't afford that!" The waiter brought the bill and said, "Your total expenditure is 3.21 million." "What!" Emily Thompson's legs went weak, almost causing her to fall. She snatched the bill and carefully examined it. Ronan, embracing Lyra, raised an eyebrow, "For the sake of Lyra's classmates, let's forget about the one thousand and just give 3.2 million!" "How is that possible!" Emily Thompson's hand, with painted red nails, trembled non-stop. The manager explained, "Two pounds of white truffles alone cost three million. The remaining two hundred thousand is for other dishes, drinks, and the private room fee." Benjamin Turner, wanting to slip away unnoticed, was caught by

The most similar, right?"Octavia Everly nodded in satisfaction, "This one looks the most like her."She transferred one hundred thousand yuan to Mia Rey

    The general manager secretly gritted his teeth. The general manager nudged Mia Reynolds beside him and gave her a stern look, "Mia, why don't you go and escort Mr. Ronan?" Mia Reynolds immediately understood and hastily said charmingly, "Mr. Ronan, let me accompany you out." Ronan didn't even spare her a glance, walking straight out with his assistant. At the entrance of the club, Ronan's driver went to fetch the car. Mia Reynolds subtly adjusted her jaw, and pushed out her chest, revealing the curves of her stunning figure. On her face, she wore a delicate and pitiful expression, like a helpless and adorable bird. "Mr. Ronan, I don't have a car. How about spending the night at your place?" Her voice, timid and full of pleading, sounded. Ronan smirked, "Sleep at my place? Where would my wife sleep then?" Mia Reynolds didn't expect him to reject her. Wasn't this man supposed to be the most unfaithful? Why did he bring up

    Mia Reynolds came to the Imperial Garden early in the morning, claiming to discuss work. What a lame excuse.Mia Reynolds gazed at Ronan so infatuatedly; did she think Lyra was blind?Ronan calmly said, "Wife, you're mischievous again."Mia Reynolds proudly lifted her chin, "Miss Lyra, I'm here to discuss project matters with Mr. Ronan. Please respect my work, okay?"By intentionally saying "Miss Lyra" instead of "Mrs. Lyra," she clarified that she looked down on Lyra's status.Upon hearing this, Ronan immediately darkened his face, radiating a chilling aura."What kind of person are you? What qualifications do you have to discuss with me? Get lost!"Mia Reynolds felt bewildered and extremely wrong. Ronan scolded her and told her to leave.How could this be possible?Didn't he notice her beauty and impressive figure, far surpassing Lyra, who couldn't serve him due to pregnancy?"Mr. Ronan, I don't know what I did wrong. Why is Miss Lyra treating me like this? As a representative of th

    Mia Reynolds whimpered and shivered, scared, she retreated, crying and running past Ronan.She ran as fast as she could, fearing that the homeless man might catch her.Lyra shook her head; Ronan was indeed such a despicable man.Sarcastic and sinister.She truly didn't understand what those women saw in him, one after another."Don't you think that Mia Reynolds looks a bit like me?" Lyra said softly.Ronan thought for a moment; indeed, there was a slight resemblance.If Lyra hadn't mentioned it, Ronan probably wouldn't have noticed.Lately, there had been quite a few women around him who had some resemblance to Lyra.Like Mia Reynolds, and a few women he encountered at social events, even including the recently signed newcomer in the company.They all had some shadow of Lyra in their appearance.He squinted his eyes; this matter didn't seem so simple!"What? Mia Reynolds failed?" Octavia Everly said in disbelief.Mia Reynolds was the one among all the people she found who resembled Ly

    The man, pulling up his pants, walked out and, upon seeing Brandon Carter, laughed heartily, "Miss Everly is indeed a rare beauty! Why don't you go in and have some fun?""I spit on that!" Brandon Carter said with disdain. "I have no interest in someone others have played with. I only like genuinely innocent girls.""That's true!" the man laughed. "You, Brandon Carter, being a big star, can have any girl you want."Someone asked with concern, "I heard that Miss Everly, from the Everly family, married Ronan, the CEO of Zenith Ventures. Won't it cause trouble for us?""Don't worry!" Brandon Carter said carelessly. "Miss Everly from the Everly family doesn't even care about herself. As long as she still wants hallucinogens, isn't she at my mercy?"The crowd praised Brandon Carter again, flattering him.After everyone was satisfied, Brandon Carter stood up and walked into the nauseating-smelling room.As soon as he entered, he saw Octavia Everly lying naked on the bed, covered in bruises

    “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
