Torin held her fingers, and Lyra's fingertips were a bit cold.
Torin squeezed her hand firmly and gently said, "I'll accompany you inside."
Lyra looked at him, Torin's eyes always so gentle.
It gave the illusion that every word he spoke had the power to soothe one's heart.
Lyra involuntarily nodded, Torin holding her hand, pushed open the rusty gate with the other.
Weeds were rampant underfoot, and with every step Lyra took, she thought.
The cherry tree in front of the door would bloom with beautiful cherry blossoms every spring.
After the flowers fell, small cherries would grow, red and sour, very delicious.
Her grandmother had made her a small swing, and she used to swing high there when she was a child.
Her grandmother always sat on the wicker chair, watching her with kindness.
However, everything had disappeared.
In front of her, there was only a messy yard

Ronan felt a pang of heartache at that smile. If it weren't for the trouble on Lyra's side, he really couldn't bear to leave."Cordelia, give me some time; I will take care of you," he said.Cordelia Locke's eyes sparkled with sweetness as she said, "I'll be waiting for you."Her restrained and strong face made Ronan even more distressed.

Saying that she saved him just to keep him!Ronan, the big CEO, had such a magical thought process.For the past two years, he had firmly believed that Cordelia Locke was his lifesaver.When he was rescued, the first person he saw lying unconscious beside him was Cordelia Locke.Moreover, Cordelia Locke was such a kind girl.Rescuing someone was something Cordelia Locke would do.With this in mind, various emotions surged in Ronan's heart."Lyra, the person in the warehouse was me," he said."Was it you?" Lyra widened her eyes. "The person I saved back then was you?"Ronan fell silent and smiled bitterly, "Lyra, don't lie. The one who saved me back then was Cordelia Locke, not you."Lyra instinctively said, "I'm not lying. This burn mark is the evidence!"Ronan shook his head, cradling her face with great tenderness."Lyra, I'll forgive you this time, but don't lie again. Cordelia has sacrificed too much for me, and I don't want to hurt her."Lyra's lips trembled noticeably, and she s

She just couldn't accept it. When she was in the United States, Lyra asked her to repay the money, causing her to lose face.So, she arranged for someone to splash red paint on Lyra and called a few reporters to take photos, hoping to embarrass Lyra."Since you like paint so much, let me show you how it feels to be splashed."Ronan leisurely rolled up his sleeves, picked up the paint bucket on the ground, and a pungent smell wafted through. He unconsciously frowned."Ronan, please don't do this, I won't dare again!" Grace pleaded bitterly."You should be thankful someone helped my wife block it, or do you think today would only end with paint?" Ronan poured a whole bucket of paint directly on her."Ah!"Grace's whole body was covered in red paint, looking disheveled.A few drops of paint splattered onto Ronan's clean and slender hands."Disgusting!" He exclaimed in anger.He signaled to his bodyguards, who promptly picked up the paint from the ground and splashed it all over Grace.Sh

Lyra said, and Cordelia Locke, who had been despondent, immediately revived.No wonder Ronan treated himself so well; it turns out he doesn't love his wife!Due to a high-profile business alliance, Ronan was forced to marry a woman he didn't love. How miserable his life must be!Cordelia Locke's lifelong ambition has been to help others and assist anyone in need around the world.She must rescue Ronan from this painful marriage and ensure he lives a happy life!Cordelia Locke raised a sincere smile and said, "Miss Lyra, I promise you...""What are you talking about?" A tall figure appeared at the door, and Lyra was startled. Cordelia Locke, like a happy bird, had already thrown herself into Ronan's arms."Ronan, don't worry. From now on, I'll make sure you're happy every day!" Cordelia Locke blushed and said.Ronan's gaze fell on Lyra, pushing Cordelia Locke aside and striding over to her. "Lyra, what are you doing here?" he questioned.Lyra raised an eyebrow. "What do you think?"Ron

Ronan's slender fingers single-handedly loosened his tie, his mood becoming increasingly restless as he kept glancing at the clock.He left her on the roadside; she should have taken a taxi back by now, right?What time is it? Why hasn't she returned yet?The large TV screen in the living room was broadcasting breaking news."We bring you the latest news. A deranged criminal has recently emerged in the city, specifically targeting pregnant women for robbery and murder. Citizens, please remain calm; the police are actively searching for the suspect..."Ronan's ears perked up.He panicked completely, jumping off the sofa with a swoosh.He regretted leaving Lyra on the roadside.What if something happened to her?Without thinking, he rushed to the garage, started the car, and drove off recklessly.He sped all the way, with images of Lyra covered in blood filling his mind.Wearing Bluetooth earphones, he continuously dialed Lyra's number, but there was no answer.He returned to the spot w

The next day, Lyra walked slowly to the dining room for breakfast, her brows lightly furrowed. Zane, the butler, looked a bit concerned. "Madam, are you alright?" "I'm fine." As soon as Lyra spoke, her voice carried a lazy, husky, and soft tone that made people blush and tremble. Zane blushed and hastily said, "Madam, please have breakfast!" He thought no wonder the young master caused a city-wide uproar last night. The young master truly dotes on Madam! Lyra walked slowly. Her figure was noble and elegant, with a graceful demeanor. This was a habit formed by being thoroughly tossed around by Ronan. When she took slightly larger steps, her legs ached severely, becoming red and swollen. Even sitting down required utmost caution. Could her sitting posture be anything but dignified and composed? Ronan seemed to have gone mad last night. If it weren't for her pleading not to harm the baby, he probably wouldn't have spared her the whole night. That terrible man was sitting at t

Hearing that her friends were arrested by the police, Cordelia Locke felt like her heart was being torn apart. She had always been a kind girl, unwilling to believe in the dark side of human nature. Since childhood, she loved helping others, preferring to work to earn money to help classmates pay tuition fees. So when Emily and Lily claimed they didn't steal money, Cordelia Locke hesitated for a moment but quickly believed them. "Don't worry, I will explain to Ronan and have the police release you," Cordelia Locke assured them. With Cordelia Locke's promise, Emily and Lily felt relieved. After leaving the police station, Cordelia Locke called Ronan to ask where he was. Ronan casually said he was at the company, and she hung up, hailed a taxi, and went to Zenith Ventures. "Miss, you can't go in!" The secretary tried to stop Cordelia Locke. Seeing her frail appearance and not daring to use force, fearing the girl might fall at any moment, Cordelia Locke rushed into Ronan's offi

Emily argued cunningly, "I just used it on my face, how was I supposed to know you were planning to give it to someone? You didn't say!"Chloe immediately responded, "You used it on your face? Can you use half a bottle just for your face? I clearly saw you applying it on your legs!"Chloe raised the bottle, and it was nearly empty.It was outrageous enough that she used the foundation that Chloe had prepared to give to her mother, but she also used it on her legs!Chloe said with a sense of grievance, "Madam, Emily never cleans the dormitory; sometimes she doesn't even flush the toilet. All the snacks I bought were eaten by her!""While I really like it here, I don't want to live with her anymore!"Lyra nodded, feeling that Emily was indeed going too far.She called Butler Zane and had Chloe moved to a different dormitory."Get along well with your colleagues from now on!" Lyra said.Emily dismissively agreed.Lyra thought Emily was new and didn't understand the rules, so she didn't t

“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
