Lyra remained calm and collected, "Alright."She turned her head to look at Cody, but saw Cody blushing with obvious awkwardness, and he said in a very small voice, "Lyra... I can't do this song. Am I embarrassing you?"Lyra didn't say anything, and didn't mean to blame him.Sheila once again broke the silence, smiling more smugly, "It seems that Mr. Carver can't help you. What would you do now? What if no one here want to dance with you? How embarrassing would that be!" Lyra remained silent as her eyes scanned across the men in the room.A few men coveted the beautiful Lyra and at one point they wanted to stand up and invite her, but to think that she was wearing a knock-off dress, they were afraid they would be disgraced being on stage with her, so they eventually gave up.For two minutes, none in the room asked to dance with Lyra.Sheila's smug grin could not get any wider.She was about to continue taunting Lyra when suddenly from the back of the crowd came a man's husky voice."I

Jamie paused, and the crowd instantly fell silent, waiting expectantly for what he was gonna say.The look on his face turned solemn, "I believe that all the guests here know what happened to the Matton Corp a few days ago. It was agonizing to our family. But for the purpose that the Matton Corp could continue to prosper, I have decided to announce my new heir in the presence of all of you tonight, Charlotte Matthews."As he finished, he turned his head and stretched out his arm to indicate the crowd to look upstairs.Charlotte had changed into a new light yellow long dress, fluffy curls falling right on her right shoulder, and she even had her makeup fixed too, back to being the pretty Miss Matthews.Her gentle and elegant smile seemed like she had totally forgotten what had happened over an hour ago.The guests also applauded accordingly when they saw her.With the lesson she just learned, Charlotte collected herself and came downstairs at an even pace, slowly walking up to Jamie an

Just...Lyra wondered if Melvin was involved in this and how much he was involved in this.Seeing her face getting more and more sullen, Kellie asked weakly, "So, Director, what are you going to do?"Lyra handed the phone back to her, looking indifferent, and she just continued working, "No plans for the time being. You can leave now. We still have a proposal for the TV talent competition franchise to submit. I need to finish my work first.""Huh?"Kellie was stunned, "Director, if you let it be, the opponent will only get more arrogant, and things may get worse."Lyra didn't answer, already focused on getting to work.Fine, she had tried. Kellie thought to herself.She couldn't figure out what was going on in Lyra's head, so she sighed helplessly and left the office.In just a few hours in the morning, it quickly fermented online and soon shot up to the What's Trending list.Because Lyra's side had not given any response, and it seemed like someone was manipulating the public opinion

The slap was so hard that before Charlotte realized it, she already hit the ground."You jinx! Do you want to bring the Matthews family down with you? How come we would have such an idiot like you!"Jamie pointed a shaking hand at her and gritted his teeth.Charlotte wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth; regardless of the pain, she tried to get up from the ground but failed twice, so she just sat directly on the ground."Dad, what do you mean? I don't understand.""You're still pretending, huh?" Jamie was furious. "You thought I wouldn't find out? You bought and sent the First Snow knockoff to Lyra Carroll, and you posted that video online. Do you hate that Lyra so much that you had to set her up?"Charlotte sat weakly on the floor, not saying a word.Seeing her like this, Jamie got even more infuriated."If you had succeeded, it would've been fine. But you got set up by others instead and had the Matthews family dragged through the mud along with it! Goddamn stupid!"Katelyn

Thinking of this, Charlotte got anxious. She quickly changed into an all-dark outfit, put on the face mask, and took a taxi straight to the place.Melvin came out of the bathroom after showering, and he couldn't get the video of Lyra dancing 'Lover' out of his head.He was a bit vexed. Had he known that he would be the one tired out, he would not have helped her this time.Lying in the bed, all he could see was Lyra's face whenever he closed his eyes, especially the pair of starry eyes, clean and stubborn, making you hard to forget once you've seen them. Also... they looked familiar.Having thought of something, Melvin hesitated for a while before giving Lyra a call.There were things he wanted to ask for clarification.First call, no answer.The second call, it said that the number was not in service.She hated him that much?Melvin felt inexplicably annoyed and tossed his phone to the side, trying to sleep....Charlotte took a taxi to the abandoned hut on the outskirts.Katrina was
