The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 9：Finding the feeling of being in love
"Torin smiled gently, resembling a considerate boss concerned for his subordinate. 'Though work demands effort, your health is equally important.'The busy work quickly made Lyra forget the incident with the flowers.Ring, ring, the phone on Lyra's desk rang."Hello, Design Department," she answered."Miss Lyra?" a woman's voice came from the other end."Yes, speaking. May I know who this is?""I'm the secretary of ZenithVentures' CEO, Mr. Ronan. The CEO would like to invite you for lunch," the secretary politely and skillfully stated, as if arranging such matters had been done countless times for Ronan.Lyra, unapologetically, responded over the phone, "I'm sorry, but I'm not familiar with Mr. Ronan. Please tell him not to disturb me anymore. Thank you!"Without waiting for the secretary's response, she hung up.Lyra sneered. Was Ronan still persistent?Ironically, she used to obediently wait for Ronan at the Majestic Crest Villa every day, but he never took her seriously.Now that s
The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 10：The atmosphere of love
"Why did we come here?" Standing in the vibrant amusement park, Lyra asked, puzzled.Torin smiled gently, tilting his chin slightly. "Look around you."Lyra glanced around and noticed young couples holding hands everywhere in the amusement park, their faces beaming with sweet smiles."I've heard this place is a haven for love. If you're looking for elements of love, this is the best place," Torin explained.Not far away, a boy held a balloon and cheerfully tapped the shoulder of a girl. She turned, surprised at the boy and the balloon."You see, love is the simplest thing," Torin said lightly. "Wanting to see someone, missing them when they're not around, even the time spent missing them feels incredibly sweet."Lyra seemed to catch a glimpse of understanding and immediately took out her paper and pencil, and started to draw.Pointing towards the Ferris wheel ahead, Torin suggested, "Let's go on that. You'll have a clearer view from there."Lyra looked up at the dazzling Ferris wheel

Ronan's eyes were deep and distant. He never expected Lyra to look so... adorable when she was angry. Lyra stood there with her head held high, confidently giving the BMW girl a couple of slaps. Her pretty little chin tilted occasionally, her voice slightly rising, appearing both beautiful, haughty, and arrogant. Wearing a red dress that complemented her black hair and slender figure, she was eye-catching in every way, effortlessly overshadowing the BMW girl. But she deliberately avoided looking at him, cold and indifferent, leaving him feeling rather irritated. The BMW girl was subdued by Lyra's presence, covering her face, dumbfounded, staring at her for a good while before her mind sluggishly caught up. She realized that the woman who just struck her had been standing quietly by the side earlier. Lyra's eyes remained calm as she looked at the BMW girl, her voice devoid of any emotion, "The traffic accident was entirely your fault. Both the traffic police and the insurance comp

Lyra heard that annoying voice and turned to see Lumi Hawthorne standing there with an air of arrogance.As Lumi Hawthorne spoke, instead of getting angry, Lyra showed a hint of pity in her eyes.Used to being arrogant, Lumi Hawthorne immediately squinted her eyes and asked, "What are you looking at?"Lyra smirked and suddenly grinned, "Having a rough time lately, huh? No awards at the film festival, plus getting overshadowed by newcomers, tsk tsk…"Lyra stopped at a certain point, and without saying more, Lumi Hawthorne understood herself.Lumi Hawthorne was momentarily stunned. She saw Lyra, a small company employee, appearing so beautifully dressed at a charity evening.She intended to mock and ridicule her but was taken aback by Lyra's words.Lumi Hawthorne had been highly anticipated to win awards at the film festival recently but ended up not receiving a single one. Moreover, due to her insulting remarks towards Lyra, she lost the endorsement from Horizon Global Enterprises Inc.

"How come you dare not let us search your bag? Is it because the diamond necklace is hidden inside your handbag?" Lumi Hawthorne questioned aggressively.Various discussions arose among the crowd."Could it be that this Miss Lyra is just money-minded?""It's hard to say. After all, she's just an ordinary staff member and can't afford such expensive jewelry."Marisol Sterling's eyes were all teary, mascara smudged, and dark clumps stuck under her eyes. She looked as unattractive as could be.Her mind was in a haze. If the four-million-dollar necklace was lost, she would have to compensate. Being new to the industry and without any substantial work, she hadn't even climbed into Ronan's bed yet. How could she afford such a huge loss?Marisol Sterling ran over, and linked her arm with Ronan's, tears and snot streaming down her face, acting helpless."Ronan, it must be this woman who stole the diamond necklace! You have to help me!" she pleaded.Ronan distanced himself somewhat disgustedly
The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 14：Ambiguous Atmosphere
Torin immediately nodded gently and said, "I'll drive you back."He glanced up, looking towards Ronan as if he were a victor, and calmly uttered, "Mr. Ronan, I take my leave!"Ronan, if you knew that I'm taking away your wife, what expression would you have?Torin drove Lyra back home, but she remained unusually silent throughout the journey, clearly preoccupied with something.While listening to music, Lyra couldn't help but think about Ronan, the man she couldn't understand at all.She began to wonder, can someone you fall for at first sight truly remain in your heart for a long time? But she resolved that she wouldn't like him any more in the future.Torin's handsome face was partially bathed in the dim yellow light coming through the car window. He spoke in an almost casual manner, "Ronan controls ZenithVentures, decisive and ruthless in business, but who would have thought his private life was so unsightly? One lover after another, even being jealous in public."Lyra sneered, "He
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

“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
