"Your father said you can choose not to go back now, but you must accept the right to operate the Angle Group in Frayton. It's a subsidiary of Lloyd Group. You need to make the group's profit for the current year five points higher than previous."
"He said that you could refuse, but the Freeman Group could end up very badly as a result." Lyra gritted her teeth in hatred. Before the old Mr. Freeman died, she had promised that she would help operate the Freeman Group, so she couldn't let anything happen to the group. Her dad clearly had known her soft spot this time, but instead of using it to threaten her to go home, he wanted her to take over the Angle Group. What the hell was he up to? "Okay, as he wishes!" Lyra took a pen, signed her name, and took the black gold card in which contained thirty billion dollars. Looking at the card, she shook her head in amusement. A few minutes ago, she was so poor that she only had ten dollars, which was not even enough to pay for taking a taxi. So, she suddenly got rich? Because of a previous agreement with her dad, her bank account was frozen. What was more, she had to hide her true identity. Otherwise, it was considered a breach of the agreement. Normally, her mother-in-law and sister-in-law despised the poor and curried favour with the rich. They were the followers of the rich and powerful, and never respected her. What would they be like to know that she was actually the youngest daughter of Lloyd family, Lyra Lloyd, the richest woman in the country? She remembered that before she recovered her memory, her best friend from the orphanage was dying. She was on her knees, begging Fiona Lee, her mother-in-law to lend her money. Fiona proudly took out a platinum bank card, but instead of handing it to her, she showed it off, "Guess how much money is in here? A million! You've never seen so much money in your life, right?" "But I won't lend you a dime! Instead, I'll use it to buy dog food! Because your poor friend is not as good as a pet dog in my eyes.” Lyra clenched her fists and was furious when recalling the past. If she had a chance, she would like to take revenge on them! An eye for an eye! As she was pondering, Lyra was suddenly grabbed by her wrist from behind. When she turned around, she found it was Fiona. Fiona was holding her chin high and her expression was very disgusted and discontented. Followed by a few noblewomen, Fiona carried many shopping bags in hands. It looked like they should have just finished shopping. Lyra tucked her card into her bag while keeping her countenance. "What's up?" said Lyra indifferently. At first, Fiona was stunned, because she didn't expect Lyra's attitude to be so cold. Lyra used to be abashed when she saw Fiona. "Who gave you the permission to come out and make a fool of yourself!? Have you finished house chores? Is lunch ready? If you starve my baby son, I'll kill you!" "Look at what you're wearing! You've been married for several years, but you still look like a poor person. It's a bloody disgrace!" "Me? Disgrace?" What Fiona said seemed to be a big joke to her, "After I married your son, you deliberately drove away the servants and forced me to quit my job. I had to wash and cook for your son, and to be a virtuous wife. I did all you wanted me to, but are you satisfied with that?" "And you made it worse. You wrongly accused me of stealing your jewels. It's your way to withhold my shares given by the old Mr. Freeman. And you held me down on my knees in the pouring rain. Have you forgotten all of that?" Several noblewomen behind Fiona were surprised about that. Although they all knew Fiona was mean to her daughter-in-law, they didn't expect her to be deranged to this extent. Seeing that there was about a conflict between the two, several noblewomen made some excuses and left. "You! What are you talking about?!" Fiona had tried to interrupt Lyra for several times, but she spoke so fast like a machine gun. "You know it well." Lyra arrogantly lifted up her chin, and her eyes looked stern, "I put up with you in the past, but if you mess with me again in the future, I will double my revenge!”Fiona was stunned by her aura. Was she still the same wishy-washy daughter-in-law? "So you were pretending before!" The more Fiona thought about it, the angrier she got, "I'm not going to let you go off today. I'm going to tell Melvin and make him divorce you! Even if you beg me on your knees, I will still kick you out of my family!" Fiona ground her teeth and threatened. Lyra sneered, with disdain on her face. "Oh, I just forgot to mention that. Just ten minutes ago, Melvin and I got divorced. Even if you beg me on your knees, I won't enter the Freeman Manor any more." Divorced? And just divorced? No way! This dirtbag used to be so desperate to stay in the Freeman family. She finally gave up? Suspiciously, Fiona looked at Lyra's back as she left. To confirm it, she made a phone call to Melvin right away. "Melvin, do you really divorce?" Melvin replied with a "hmm" and suddenly frowned, "Just did the paperwork. Who told you that?" "Who else could it be? I ran into Lyra on t
Melvin entered the hall and went to help Charlotte up.And then, he look at Lyra with disappointment, "I thought you'll restrain yourself after the divorce, but I didn't expect that you are still so despicable. You disgust me. I had planned to allocate this villa under your name. But it seems unnecessary.""Melvin, don't blame Lyra. I made her angry and she pushed me by accident. It's all my fault. You can scold me."Charlotte leaned in his arms with self-condemnation expression, sobbing in an aggrieved and pitiful manner. She then glanced at Lyra, but with triumphal smugness.Melvin's face was frosty, and he said to Lyra with a commanding tone, "Now, immediately, apologize to Lottie."Let her to apologize?She was a little angry.Lyra looked at the two loving persons back and forth, smiling with arched eyebrows. She tenderly went to pull Charlotte who was in Melvin's arms.Charlotte thought she would get angry and argue with her, but she didn't expect her to smile in front of her.Fe
Melvin frowned. When did he ever say he wanted to abandon her? Why would she think that?He was baffled and just wanted to go after her to make things clear but his pant leg was clutched from behind."Melvin... I know it's wrong."Charlotte on the floor raised her miserable little face and softly choked as she explained, "I'm just afraid... afraid that you'll really like Lyra for the three years I've been away. I'm afraid you won't want me ..."Melvin frowned, looked down and saw her slightly puffy cheeks. His eyes slightly moved, and he reached out to help her up."I said I'll give you the status of being my wife. Divorce is a matter of time, and you are too eager this time." His tone softened a bit.Charlotte grabbed his sleeve and pursed her mouth in aggression, "It's all my fault, but I didn't want to harm anyone. I just used the wrong method, Melvin ... forgive me!"When he didn't say anything else, she softly leaned into his arms, tentatively revealing her fair shoulder.Melvin'
The receptionist sized her up again to make sure she didn't look like some celebrities who depended on their appearances."How can you be a client? Do you know that the president of our Angle Group is worth hundreds of millions of dollars? Are you the kind of person who can get along with him?"Lyra was practically laughing.With her status now, she was afraid that she was way much richer than this Angle Group president. And the receptionist acted like asnob.For this kind of employee, Lyra was also lazy to talk nonsense with her. And her expression was serious, "Make a phone call to your senior. Just say I am here. If the senior does not see me, I’ll bear all the consequences."The receptionist wanted to continue to retort, but was scared by Lyra's cold and sharp gaze that she dared not say anything."That's what you said! Consequences at your own risk!"The receptionist grunted and informed the senior by adding the trimmings, when Lyra looked more and more arrogant.The receptionis
All of the employees was astonished!The receptionist Emily just said that she received a woman who was suspected to be Mr. Lloyd's mistress, and the company suddenly had a brokerage director!They had speculated that if this director was the same person as Mr. Lloyd's mistress.However, they were unaware that their company had actually changed its boss.But Lyra called it by a good name of: a personal visit.On the one hand, because she had never handled the behind-the-scenes of the entertainment industry, she was not clear about the business process, and she needed Keith to help her go through all of this. One the other hand, she did not know the company personnel. If she lurked among the staff, and became their colleague, it would be convenient for her to quickly know the personnel situation and to a layoff later!As the suspicions continued, Emily, at the service desk on the ground floor of the Angle Group, was looking at Jalen, the special assistant, who was walking towards her,
Hearing someone call her name, Lyra turned her head to look over. There was no extra expression on her face.She guessed that Melvin and Charlotte would show up, but her heart has been completely dead since Melvin asked her to apologize at the villa. Now Melvin was just an insignificant ex-husband to her.With a decent smile on her face, she took Keith's arm and went up to socialize.Seeing Lyra and Keith coming towards her side, Charlotte was surprised and subconsciously turned her head to look at Melvin beside her.Melvin's eyes had also been on Lyra. He seemed to be shocked, but was still sullen in his eyes.Because of what happened during the day, he felt a little guilty for a while.But she not only changed her appearance in a few hours, but also hooked up with another man?Although it must be said that tonight she was indeed very beautiful, stunningly beautiful, he actually didn't know that his ex-wife could be so stunning after three years of marriage.And could Keith be her ne
"Yes, I hit you. Cause you're too cheap."Lyra rubbed her palm carelessly, and sneered, "It seems that the Freeman family's education is really not very good. The daughter they teach is only full of shit.""Also, what's wrong with married people? Is there a rule that married people are not allowed to participate? Is your brother not married? What you just said is an insult to me personally. I can sue you.""You!"Sheila's temper sparked. She was hit in the face in public and was accused of being ill-bred. And she and the Freeman family were humiliated.The most crucial thing was that the one who beat her was Lyra, who was bullied by her in the past and was too afraid to say anything!What a disgrace!"Bitch, I gonna kill you!"She rushed over hideously with sinister expression, and reached her hand for Lyra's hair.Keith saw this and quickly took Lyra into his arms and turned his back on Sheila.The other one who was first to protect her was Melvin.He frowned and looked askance at Sh
Lyra was listening to the lively music on the dance floor and was tasting the chocolate mousse made by a seven-star chef from France.Coldly, the man's broad palm broke into her line of sight."This young lady, I wonder if I would have the honor to invite you to a dance?"She raised her head and looked upward along her hand, and saw Melvin's unchanging cold face. Her appetite instantly became less than good.They were looking at each other.Melvin's heart abruptly missed a beat. It was the first time for him to seriously look at Lyra's face. He found that her features were just perfect. Her skin was fair and flawless, making her beyond comparison. It turned out that his ex-wife was really born very beautiful.Especially the eyes, they were like the stars in the sky, which were clear but with stubborn temperament.Unconsciously, Melvin looked dumbfounded.Her eyes gave him an illusion of déjà vu.He was in a daze when he saw Lyra suddenly smile sarcastically. Her eyes were full of indi
Anthony, who was on the other end of the phone, noticed that her mood was not right, smiled gently and coaxed, "Rara, don't worry. Spencer and Momo are very good. Spencer has finished his injection and didn't cry. Momo seems to be a little bit timid, but I hold her and she's quiet."Lyra looked at Momo's aggrieved expression, and her heart ached like a twinge. She endured it before saying, "Thanks.""No problem."Anthony laughed and his blue eyes looked fascinated.These bright blue eyes only glowed with a shimmer when they saw Lyra.Malcolm watched the interaction between the two.The heart abruptly had a dull pain. He suppressed the sour feeling on his nose and silently went to the side to pack suitcases.Lyra didn't pay much attention to Anthony at all and was preoccupied with the babies.In the video, the doctor had prepared the syringe, hidden the needle and coaxed Momo.But Momo was very resourceful and seemed to have guessed that she was going to be given a shot. Her nose was w
High fever?Lyra gasped and her expression instantly turned grave. And then she turned her head to go out, "Buy a ticket immediately and go back to our country.""Honey, take it easy for a minute."Malcolm took her wrist and said methodically, "It's late at night over in Crana. There's no private plane that can be transferred this time, so there's not always a flight back home at night. Even if there is, the plane will take more than 20 hours to get there."Lyra gave him a cold look, "So you're just going to sit there and wait? Malcolm, you're really not worried when our babies get feverish and sick because we're not around?"She shook off his hand and walked outside the venue.Malcolm let out a long sigh and rushed to catch up, "I was wrong this time. Our babies are sick and I was in a hurry, but it is really too far for us to go back. So I have already called Anthony to let him know, and have Chad go to the medical team of White family to call in the pediatrician."He walked side by
In the anticipation of all the guests, Nil took the microphone, "After the group's deliberation, the Lloyd's Corp of Crana won the bid for this project. Congratulations." Applause erupted from the venue.Some people felt lost. Some exclaimed, and some admired.Lyra and Malcolm were the most calm ones, because this result was not unexpected.Midst a round of applause, Lyra stood up gracefully and bow slightly to all the guests at the scene, being courteous and polite.She stepped onto the red carpet, took a step onto the stage and shook hands with Nil in front of everyone, signaling a happy collaboration.The media gathered around the two who were shaking hands and took photos of them.Lyra's expression was appropriate and her temperament was elegant and generous.At this point in the bidding process, it was basically over.The groups that were not selected had to return without any success.But to their surprise, Nil announced another piece of good news before announcing the end of th
With Malcolm's personality, he was definitely not talking about work.Lyra raised her hand angrily and flicked him hard on the side of his head."This is a work thing. Be decent."Malcolm frowned and rubbed his painful forehead, employing a rebound tactic, "This is obviously decent. It's you who's thinking out of the box."Lyra was confused.Could it be that she was impure?She raised her hand again and flicked Malcolm's forehead again, accusing him righteously, "I am misled by you. You're making erotic statements all day long."It was always his fault. Malcolm conceded, lowered his head, listened docilely but did not open his mouth.Seeing his obedience, Lyra gave him a kiss. Remembering the half-hour delay in the opening of the tender meeting, she asked curiously, "After all, Nil Grey is the first heir of Atria and paramount and powerful. What did you tell him?"Malcolm had a mysterious expression, "Do you really want to know?"Lyra nodded her head.His handsome face had rare expres
Meeting his gaze, Melissa raised her simple and bright eyes and opened her mouth to explain."I think I may not be suitable for the actor industry. I don't want to be an actress. I want to go back and think about how to start my life and re-elect a suitable path for myself."Keith breathed a sigh of relief.Fortunately, as long as it was not a withdrawal, break-up, and leaving him, even if she wanted the stars in the sky, he would do his best to help her."Okay, I promise you. Don't worry. I won't force you to make a choice. You are now 21 years old at heart and have absolutely no acting experience. You certainly have the opportunity to choose your career path again."He stretched out his palm towards Melissa. His eyes were gentle, and the bass was nice and pleasing to ears, "I'll take care of the crew. You're tired today. Let me take you back to rest, okay?"Melissa stared at his broad palm for a while.Keith was patient, waiting quietly for her to think about it and give a reply.Me
Lyra and Malcolm smiled at each other and looked at each other with love in their eyes."They are all here to visit the museum. Do you want to go over and talk? Get acquainted for a few minutes?" Lyra asked with a smile.Malcolm looked across the exhibition hall, "Since Mr. Hoare is also enjoying with his girlfriend, he must not want us to disturb them. Or should we wait until they finish browsing that exhibition area and then go over?"Lyra nodded her head in agreement.She didn't like socializing, let alone interrupting their sweet time because of it.She thought Mr. Hoare and Anne didn't like it as well, so it was better not to disturb them.A brief interlude did not stop the two from visiting the Great Museum.Lyra and Malcolm waited for Paul Hoare and Anne in front of them to finish each time before moving on to the next show.Strolling around, this was the largest museum exhibition in Atria, and the afternoon of fun passed quickly.By the time the two emerged from the museum, th
Would be able to have sex?Malcolm's dark eyes glowed with excitement.As long as they could have sex, anything was fine.It was just crying in front of his wife. There was nothing to be ashamed of!He bit his lower lip, forced his eyes redden, looked back at her and admitted being defeated softly."Honey, I'm sorry. Next time I will never make a fool of myself. Don't beat me. My ass is swollen."Lyra lowered her eyes and looked at the wound behind him.The skin was indeed swollen and red with the water droplets.She admired her masterpiece," Mel, your butt looks even better. It's called the quick butt augmentation method. Top quality and excellent service." Malcolm was speechless.He suppressed the evil intent in his heart and asked, "I've given in. Shouldn't you keep your promise and let's do it?"Lyra put down the bath brush and nodded.The moment the weapon wasn't there, her wrist was clutched by Malcolm and pulled under the shower.The aggressive could no longer be concealed."Ra
Lyra hummed twice with arrogance, "Then we'll see."They were looking at each other with a strong desire to conquer.Crana was a long way from Atria, more than 20 hours by plane.With Malcolm's company, Lyra wasn't lonely at all on this trip.The two leaned over the plane window and watched the first rays of sunlight.And they watched the mountains with clouds stacked up.And they also saw the extremely beautiful sunset glow.Lyra pointed to the clouds in the sky that was flushed with purple and red, playfully smiling and teasing Malcolm."Do you like that color? When we get off the plane and check into the hotel, I'll give you a coat of fuchsia on your skin, okay?"Malcolm wrapped his arm around her waist, "It must hurt. You sound cruel but you definitely can't do that to me."Lyra tilted her head and placed a shallow kiss on his chin to represent her answer.Indeed, she couldn't be that cruel.Although it was Malcolm's disobedience that led to the exotic honeymoon this time, what wa
Lyra did not need to think and immediately knew which mysterious gentleman the stewardess was talking about.She sighed helplessly.She didn't expect a good low-key trip to be made so grand by Malcolm."First class is not necessary. Thanks for that gentleman's kindness. I purchased business class after all. I only sit in my own seat." She shook the plane ticket in her hand to the stewardess, while walking towards the cabin.The stewardess looked embarrassed and wanted to say something, but Lyra had already walked away.She had no choice but to call and report the matter to the mysterious gentleman.Lyra found the seat she had purchased in the empty cabin.She stayed up late last night revising the project, and had sex with Malcolm most of the night, so she could barely sleep.She was used to catching up on sleep on the plane. As she just sat down in her seat, she asked for a small blanket from the stewardess.She put her knees up, turned her phone off, and lie down to fall asleep in s
