The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 139

Melvin froze slightly, as if he didn't expect her to refuse so decisively.

Lyra: "Those years became unbearably dim for me, starting when old Freeman let me stay at the manor."

"Old Freeman was kind to me, but he was not so trusting me. Fiona wrongly accused me of stealing jewelry. Wesley helped her and and he didn't say a word. Although I don't hate him about that, it's absolutely impossible you want me to commemorate the day! "

Her eyes were cold.

Melvin hadn't seen the look in a long time. He admitted his mistake, "I'm sorry. I didn't know it was like this ..."

Lyra will not take it out on him.

"You were supposed to be working late at the group. It's normal to be unaware, but this commemorative dinner is not necessary."

She said as she looked at the time. It was getting late.

After instructing Eleven to take good care of Melvin, she turned her head and prepared to go out.

Melvin grabbed her hand with a quick glance.

"Lyra, Garrett, he's going to propose to you tonight. Do you know?"

Lyra wasn't surprised, but turned around and asked, "How did you know?"

Melvin did not hide, "Last time he came to the Freeman group to look for you. I met with him. He was the one who told me. I think his heart is too soft. He may be a very good friend, but definitely not a good husband. If you stay with him, he will definitely make you sad!"

In this regard, Lyra shared his view that Garrett's gentleness and elegance was not for one person, but for all.

But it was Melvin who reminded her of this, which made her felt sarcastic.

"Whether he's a good husband or not, it may not be entirely certain. But you, for sure, are not. So who are you to say such things?"

Melvin suddenly turned pale.

It took a while before he raised his eyes to look at her again, "As your former husband, I failed to do my duty and brought you pain. I am the one who has failed you. I am sorry ..."

Lyra released his clenched hand, "No need to be sorry. When your agreement for this year expires, you and I will owe each other nothing and will be two parallel lines that will never intersect."

Melvin's face grew paler little by little as he watched her break free of his grip and leave the villa.

So she, was she into Garrett?

...

The seven-star Doug Hotel in Frayton.

Garrett chartered an entire floor of the sky restaurant.

The whole floor will be covered with 9,999 red roses. And the diamond ring box was hidden in the birthday cake secretly.

The long French table was filled with exquisite gifts that he owed Lyra for every birthday as well as holidays to make up for the six years he had been separated from her.

Garrett went over all the little surprises to make sure there were no problems and straightened his tie again, intending to practice what to say in a moment.

This was the third time he had come to Frayton for Lyra and confessed his love for her. The first two times were either too hasty or had villainy.

This time, he was determined to do it!

He was thinking about it when suddenly a man in a suit and dressed as a bodyguard approached him.

"Hello Mr. Frazier, I'm Miss Carroll's bodyguard."

"How come I haven't seen you before?"

Ted narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I'm Fifteen, I was sent out on an errand by the lady before. Last time you came to Seaside Villa and it was Seventeen and Eighteen who sent you back."

"So that's it."

Garrett smiled.

He thought this young man looked sunny and clean and was quite affable, so he did not suspect.

Because Lyra was appearance-obsessed, the bodyguards around her were not bad looking.

Ted continued, "Yes Mr. Frazier, Miss said she has a very surprise birthday present for you and would like to invite you to the rooftop."

Garrett was delighted to hear that Lyra had also prepared a gift for him.

"Good, she's thoughtful."

He followed Ted, and the two bodyguards he had with him saw him going out and immediately followed.

Ted noticed this and questioned, "Miss is alone on the rooftop waiting for Mr. Frazier. Are you bringing bodyguards up to spoil her fun?"

Garrett thought about it and didn't think it was a good idea.

How can the bodyguards interrupt them for such a romantic moment?

"You guys just wait here. It's just the rooftop. There won't be any problems."

"Yes, Mr. Frazier."

The elevator at the Doug Hotel did not go straight to the rooftop, and they needed to go up through a security channel.

Ted opened the rooftop door for him and bent down to make an inviting gesture.

Garrett humbly smiled before striding in.

The rooftop was empty and there was nothing.

He realized something was not right.

"Where's Lyra? You lied to me!"

He turned his head and wanted to leave, but a man dressed as a staff suddenly sprang up behind him, using a white cloth to cover his mouth from behind.

Garrett struggled twice and was instantly taken down.

The man in the staff uniform removed his mask. It was Chad's face.

Ted asked, "Where to?"

Chad thought about it, "Have the brothers take the staff lane. Go to Frayton dock. Send him on a cargo ship, preferably an export vessel. Boss said, throw as far as you can."

"This ..."

Ted was a little worried, "Wouldn't something happen if we threw him on a cargo ship without a cash in his pocket, right? He's at least a young man on a silver platter."

Chad reached out and punched him, "You want to worry about him? He's an able-bodied man. He can't find a way to live? And how long do you think you're able to keep this under wraps? He dared to say Miss Carroll was a divorced woman. Throwing him on the cargo ship is a mercy for him."

"What about the two bodyguards from the Frazier family downstairs?"

Chad: "I'll take care of it."

The two men divided the work and began to move separately.

Lyra was driving to the Doug Hotel when a message popped up on her phone from Garrett.

[Lyra, the Frazier family suddenly had an emergency and called me back, so we'll have to meet next time, sorry.

What could be so urgent about the Frazier family that they would let him go back at this late hour?

And Garrett had never been one to miss an appointment.

Lyra was a little weirded out, pulled over and called Garrett.

Only the gentle female customer service prompted that his phone was turned off.

On the plane so soon?

Without thinking much about it, she turned around and went back to Seaside Villa.

Melvin's joy was written on his face when he saw the person who had gone and come back.

Lyra was a bit surprised by his attentiveness, but didn't care too much. After the dinner, she went upstairs to rest.

The next day, the two went to the office one after the other as usual.

The Freeman group president's office.

Lyra was working with Melvin and Jackie to develop a concrete plan to ruin Harrington Group.

Fifteen knocked on the office door in a feverish hurry.

"Miss!"

He shouted, saw that Melvin and Jackie were there, and abruptly stopped.

Lyra saw the concern in his eyes, and although she felt it weird, she still made a symbolic excuse to send Melvin and Jackie out.

When everyone had gone, Lyra asked, "What happened?"

Fifteen leaned close to her ear and spoke to her in a very low voice.

"Frayton Women's prison has sent someone to say that Charlotte is missing!"
