The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin)

Chapter 193 Is something wrong with his injury?

Lyra didn't hide it either, "Yes, if not, how can I catch you?"

Anthony smiled, which looked a little bleak.

"When did you start guarding against me?"

"From the moment you took out the revolver and asked me to choose between Melvin and Charlotte. I

felt something was wrong with you."

How dared she suspect him from that moment on?

Anthony stared at her and was somewhat incredulous.

She continued expressionlessly, "It wasn't until the last time you were leaving Frayton, I accidentally

saw the man in black in the hallway of Fantalure Bar. Coupled with the acid incident that day, I

suspected you had a connection with the one in the Lloyd family who tried to kill me."

Anthony smiled miserably, "So it is."

"Anthony, you are indeed the only person I ever admired when I was a kid. But why do you want to kill

me?"

He shook his head and was still in denial, "I don't. Your family announced your death before. You don't

know how sad I was. I didn't know you are alive until half a month ago, and only by pretending to

cooperate can I have the chance to come to Frayton to see you."

"If you still love me, I'll fight them to the end for you, but ... you have an extra annoying person by your

side!"

"The day in bar, I was standing on the second floor. I didn't want to make a move until Melvin came in. I

knew he would protect you, so I did it. I was not trying to target you. How could I let you to get hurt?"

He spoke without interruption. His eyes gazed at Lyra sincerely. Despite that his face was stained with

blood, it still can not hide his good-looking face.

However, Lyra had no time to admire his face but sneered.

"Don't you think it's ridiculous to say that? If he wouldn't have helped me, I would be the one who is

injured now. And you're still saying you didn't target me."

Her eyes grew colder and colder, not bothering to continue the nonsense, "Don't hide it from me. I just

want to know who harms me. As long as you tell me, I won't make things difficult for you."

Anthony lowered his eyes, and the corners of his lips were turned downward sadly.

"You might leave me alone, but he won't."

He?

Lyra frowned, "Who are you talking about?"

Anthony re-raised his eyes to look at her and spoke very painfully, "Lyra, your pet, he is no good. He

has been using his acting skills to deceive you and hoodwink you. He has more secrets than I do. You

must not fall for his tricks!"

"He has secrets. I always knew that. I just didn't bother to dig them up." Lyra looked calm.

Anyway, she and Melvin only had a one-year agreement. When it was expired, they would be

completely isolated from each other all their lives. And she was not interested in his secrets.

Anthony smiled surprisingly, "Looks like you don't care much about him either! Good, you should thank

me. After all I helped you fix this clingy guy."

Seeing her frown, Anthony's blue pupils pretended to be surprised.

"Lyra, you don't know? Then he's really not honest. You might go back and personally examine the

injury to see how much he's hiding from you."

To see his injury?

Lyra furrowed her brows. Wasn't his injury ordinary and superficial caused by the acid?

She wondered in her mind. And Anthony still had a faint smile on his face.

But that smile was a little evil. It was not like he was telling lies, but knowing something inside.

"Make it clear."

Anthony shook his head and just laughed.

Lyra was a little annoyed, but couldn't bring herself to do anything about him.

He was, after all, the boss of Security Agency and had a high status in military in Crana. She had no

legitimate reason to hit him, let alone get herself and Collin into trouble.

She withdrew her gaze and turned to exit the hut.

Just as the door was closed, Melvin walked over.

"Well? Did he say?"

Lyra lowered her eyes and shook her head gently, "Anyway, it has been confirmed that he colluded with

someone to harm me. Find another ways to investigate the rest. You ask Chad and the others to

destroy the evidence. Do not leave any traces, and send him back quietly tomorrow."

Melvin didn't say yes.

She can take her time to find out the truth, but he can't, and he was running out of time.

"Lyra, if you believe me, leave this whole thing to me. Within two days, I'll make him spill the beans."

"You know his identity. Do you dare to hit him?"

Lyra looked at him seriously, "You did that to his face, didn't you? Do you still want to lynch him? The

Security Agency and the Callahan family will not let you get away with it."

He pursed his lips and laughed, and did not pay much attention to what she said.

"Don't worry. I will take care of it."

Then they looked at each other.

Lyra was a little bit stupefied. Although his words sounded normal, there was always an impulse to

make her somehow felt trusting.

"Okay, then you can try."

Thinking of Anthony's last few words before she left, she withdrew her gaze and her expression grew

grave, "Let's go back to the villa."

"You first. I will arrange things here and then later."

Lyra's face was unquestionably serious, "No, you're coming with me."

Hmm ...

Melvin compromised, "Then can you wait for me for two minutes? I'll explain the arrangements to

Chad."

"Okay."

She said yes! She was finally willing to wait for him for once!

Melvin was inexplicably happy.

He took off his jacket and put it over Lyra's shoulders, wrapping her shoulders tightly, "It's late at night

and cold outside. You can go back to the car first. I'll be quick."

Lyra did not refuse and nodded.

Only when she was far away did Melvin call Chad over, and his face returned to its coldness.

"Dig out what Anthony hid in two days. I don't what the process is and means you use. Even if he's

hurt, I'll go explain to the bureau. I just want to see the results."

"Yes, boss."

Melvin looked back to the hut, getting grimmer, "When this is over, splash a bottle of acid on his back."

Chad: "Isn't sulfuric acid too normal for him? He used the S404 virus!"

"What? Do you still want to use it? There are just a dozen bottles. He doesn't deserve to such a

precious thing. I will contact the bureau to remove his position. And I'll keep his life in jail for torture."

Chad thought about it and felt it made sense.

"Okay, boss."

"Well, I'll leave it to you here."

Chad was about to say yes when he saw Melvin trotting all the way to the highway like a gust of wind.

He tut-tutted twice.

It was true that love made people stupid.

He was once a bloodthirsty and cold man. Seeing his back who was trotting, Chad thought he was a

little cute. Why did he think so?

...

Lyra sat in the back seat of the car, still thinking about Anthony's words.

Then she glanced at the figure who was trotting over. He opened the car door very quickly and sat in.

Then he quietly rubbed the sides of his arms with his palms.

Lyra noticed his subtle movements and saw that he was wearing only a light silk shirt before

remembering that his jacket had just been given to her

"Are you cold?"

Melvin shook his head, "It's not cold."

"Why you're running so fast?"

"Don't want to keep you waiting too long."

Lyra was silent. He was still saying nice things to coax her?© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

The moment when he came in, she felt the cold air on his body and his lips were frozen so that they

were a little wan but he was stubborn to admit.

She took the jacket off her shoulders and threw it to him impatiently, "Take it away. I'm hot."

Winter was going to set in, and the temperature difference at night was really huge.

Lyra asked Nineteen, who was driving, to turn on the heating in the car.

They sped all the way back to Seaside Villa.

She changed her slippers and headed upstairs, leaving a sentence without looking back, "Come up

with me."

Melvin didn't delay and followed her up to the third floor.

Back in the room, Lyra turned on the heating first before sitting on the edge of the bed and

commanding in a light tone, "Do it yourself and strip naked."

"Hmm?"

Melvin's ears instantly turned slightly red.

What wa she ... up to?!
