The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 117

Lyra was silent for a while before she continued, "Keep an eye on him. Seventeen stays behind to guard the villa. Tell him not to go out for a few days, clean the house well and do his part."

"Yes."

Seventeen opened the door and got out of the car and watched as the two cars headed in the direction of Keith's villa.

Keith only knew she had returned to the villa when he saw her sitting in the dining room early the next morning eating breakfast made by Connie.

He wanted to go over and scoff her. Suddenly he was surprised to find that she was eating with a spoon in her left hand?

The right hand hung naturally, not on the dining table.

Keith circled around and sat down on the dining chair next to her before he could see that she had a bandage on her right hand.

"Rara, what happened to your hand?"

Lyra continued to have her porridge carelessly, "I'm fine. I got bitten by a dog."

Keith was distressed, "What kind of violent dog dares to bite my baby sister? I can help you to deal with it!"

"Just a big useless wolf dog. I'll clean him up."

Keith still wanted to ask, but Lyra had already put down her spoon and finished her breakfast, "Keith, I'm going to the Freeman group first, and I have to go to Angle Group this afternoon, so I won't bother you for dinner."

"Okay, be safe."

When she had gone, Keith called Eleven in.

He sat on the dining chair. His face was cold and stern as he swept towards Eleven, "What's going on with Miss's hand injury?"

Eleven lowered his head and said tremulously, "It's what the lady said, bitten by ... the dog."

"Eleven, you know what happens when you lie to me. She's living in Seaside Villa. Where's the dog? It's Melvin, the dog, right?"

"You've guessed it all, and you're still asking ..."

Eleven was scolded and expressed his grievance.

It was just a guess, but now that it was confirmed, Keith was furious, "That son of a bitch! It was a mistake for me to let Collin cut him some slack last time. I'll make him pay with his life if he hurts my sister!"

He took out his cell phone and was about to make a call when Eleven hastily blocked it.

"Master Keith, please take it easy. The lady always has her own judgement. She keeps Mr. Freeman, so she should have her own plans. You'd better not spoil her plans."

Keith narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, "His life can be left to Rara torture, but he must suffer severely for hurting Rara!"

He said, greeted Eleven to come to the front, whispered a few instructions to him, "... remember?"

"Yes, Master Keith!"

...

For the past two days, Lyra had been running around both the Angle Group and the Freeman group.

A festival was around the corner so the reality television show had stopped recording for a day to give the girls a day off.

She was also ready to go back to Keith's villa early and have a nice dinner with Keith. She was cleaning up her desk when her assistant, Kellie, knocked on the door in a hurry.

"Director, a bad news! The person in charge over at the casting base said that Melissa is missing again!"

Lyra's expression was very grave. Who was it this time, Ashley?

She drove to the base with Kellie in tow and checked all the surveillance.

This time, however, the situation was not quite the same as last time. Melissa had not left the base at all, so she should still be on the base, not kidnapped.

The staff of the base will almost turn the whole base over to find her but they never found her. It was like she suddenly evaporated.

For a while, the staff and participating girls left at the base were on edge.

Lyra never believed there were ghosts in this world.

Unless, of course, someone was playing ghost!

She called all the participating girls who did not go home for the festival to her office individually for questioning.

"I don't know. I'm not in the same dorm as her. I've never even met her."

"She usually does not like to talk to us. Seems to have a better relationship with the other girls in her dormitory. You can go ask them. I do not know anything."

After asking, everyone wore masks and told lies, with no results.

Lyra had to call on Hannah, who had just been eliminated from the previous show.

Hannah: "My votes were so less that I was already eliminated. How would I know? But Ashley did not come to me. It doesn't look like she did this, but I know Jasmine McCray and her relationship is very bad. When the camera can not see them, she bullied her. Maybe you can start from her."

Jasmine McCray?

Lyra narrowed her eyes, "Good."

She immediately asked the person in charge to investigate Jasmine's outgoing records and found that she had just left this morning. After she left for half an hour, the news of Melissa's disappearance came from the base.

Could this be a bullying incident?

Lyra asked the staff to find a reason to call Jasmine back.

Jasmine, who entered the base, was forced directly to the conference room.

Lyra sat in the main seat of the conference room, coldly staring at her, which startled Jasmine.

"Who are you? Who are you to restrict my personal freedom and bring me here!?"

Lyra smiled, "I'm the agency director of Angle Group, the mastermind of this show."

After knowing her identity, Jasmine scorned, "Do you know who I am? Polly Harper, a rich girl from the base, is covering me! If you dare to treat me like this, do you believe I can kick you out of Angle Group immediately by only a phone call?"

"Want to try? You can't get Angle Group to fire me with one phone call, but I can get you dropped from the game immediately with one phone call."

Jasmine was silent.

She had a hard time getting through the first phase, and with her ranking, she had a chance to debut. Therefore, she couldn't afford to be dropped at this juncture.

Because she was so afraid of losing, she didn't dare to make this bet with Lyra.

Lyra saw her falter before she began to ask, "Where's Melissa?"

"I ... I put her in that little out-of-the-way bathroom on the east side."

...

When Lyra found Melissa, she was soaked, cowering on the ground and shivering. Her voice was a little hoarse from shouting so long at the beginning.

Lyra was furious and had the staff take Melissa to the base medical unit for treatment and then had Jasmine apologize to Melissa.

When Melissa woke up, she saw the image of Jasmine kneeling by her bed with her teeth gritted.

"I'm sorry! I shouldn't have teased you!"

Melissa listened to her impetuous tone and turned her face to the side, not wanting to pay attention to it at all.

Lyra gave a glance at Jasmine who keeled on the floor and said with a fake smile, "It seems your apology wasn't sincere enough for her to forgive you."

Jasmine panicked. Her eyes immediately turned red, "Melissa sorry, I really know I was wrong. I just wanted to tease you. I did not want to really hurt you. I didn't mean to. Please forgive me. I made great efforts to survive the preliminary round. I don't want to be withdrawn!"

Hearing her last words, the bottom of Melissa's eyes darkened and she sighed, "Forget it. I forgive you. Get lost."

Jasmine was pleased and looked over at Lyra, who looked cool and arrogant next to her.

"You heard her. She said she's not going to bother with me!"

Lyra let out a "hmm", turned her head and instructed the person in charge to go get her withdrawn from the competition.

Jasmine was confused, "Why! You said you'd leave me alone if I apologized to her!"

"She forgives you, but you caused her to lose her voice. I don't know if it will have an effect on next week's game, so I will never forgive!"

"On what grounds?!" Jasmine defied.

"Just because not all apologies deserve to be forgiven! And I have the final say here!"
