The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 146

The old Carver seemed to sense his resentment-filled gaze and glared over viciously, "What are you looking at! Kneel down! Don't think you're done with this!"

It sounded like he didn't intend to forgive Cody.

Lyra thought about it and smiled, "Oliver, I came today mainly to take Cody back to the set. His shooting is almost over. if it's delayed, it won't be fine. I will take him to apologize to Seth. And I'll teach him a lesson properly."

The old Carver looked at Lyra, then at Cody, and nodded with great satisfaction, "All right then, I'll rest assured leaving him to you."

"Thank you, Oliver for your trust. I'll take Cody then?" She said it while wining at Cody.

Cody covered his swollen back and got up from the ground with difficulty.

The housekeeper looked at him and was a little worried, "Mr. Carver, why don't we let him get a medicine before they leave. It's too hard to continue filming with an injury."

"What medicine!? Why should I make my Rara wait for him? He should be made to remember the lesson with pain. Not only for the shooting, but also for the charity party at night. You hear me?"

"Yes."

Cody compressed his lips and was distracted.

Lyra restrained herself from laughing and looked to the old Carver, "Then Oliver, he and I will leave now. I'll come back to visit you again when I'm free next time."

When she finished, she went up and helped Cody get out of the living room.

Cody asked her only when he was far from the living room.

"Lyra, you're not really going to take me to the hospital to apologize to that scumbag, are you?!"

Lyra pursed her lips and the corners of her mouth turned upwards, "Then tell me first why you want to fight with him."

Cody sulked and lowered his head.

Because his hips and legs were beaten, he walked in a very uncomfortable way and felt terribly painful in cold sweat.

He hesitated before saying, "Because I heard him cursing you behind your back, very badly. So whenever I see him, I'll beat him once, hiss ..."

He got a little bit excited when mentioning it, accidentally touched the injury and bared his teeth in pain.

Lyra snickered. Why did she suddenly feel that he was silly and a bit cute?

"If that's the reason, why didn't you just tell Oliver?"

Cody: "Grandpa knows. But as long as grandpa and the housekeeper know Seth's hard words, it won't be long before the whole Carver family and servants know it as well. I don't want to spoil your reputation."

Hearing him say this, Lyra became increasingly curious as to what Seth had said about her.

"Do you have a recording? Play it for me."

Cody followed to Lyra's car and played the Seth's recording to her in the car.

"I heard Cody's boss is an abandoned woman? And an orphan? I don't know how she got the right to run the Angle Group, but she must have slept with Keith! But, I have seen her in the show. She is not bad looking, but unfortunately, is a bitch!"

Lyra's face was dark as she listened to the recording.

Cody: "I'm so hot-tempered. I want to fucking punch him again!"

Lyra stopped him, "Be good and go back to the set. This is out of your hands."

"No, Lyra, you're just going to let him get away with like that?"

Lyra raised an eyebrow and smiled in a wicked way, "Did I say I'll let him get away with this?"

The most uncontrollable thing in this world was the mouth of others, but whether she heard it or not was another matter.

Since she heard it, with her personality, it was impossible not to fight back.

As she pondered, she drove to Kellywood and called her assistant to come out and pick him up.

Cody pulled the car door and did not want to get out, "Lyra, I really need to shoot? There seems to be an action scene today. I just got beaten up, so I can't shoot at all."

Lyra took a detumescence cream from the trunk and handed it to him.

"I brought it for you on my way to your home. Go to the lounge to apply it and rest more. I give you a day off today, but catch the shooting later."

Cody was moved, "Sure enough, Lyra loves me the most. I'll always be your most loyal little puppy!"

"Don't be joking. Go."

Cody was opening the car door when he thought of something else and turned his head and said, "If I can stick to the shoot today, I'll try not to delay the progress. But can you accompany me to the charity party tonight?"

The purpose of this question was to let her accompany him.

Lyra nodded her head in response, "Okay."

When Cody left in high spirits, she called Eleven.

"Arrange someone to guard Seth Kennedy in the hospital. When he can be discharged, put on a sack and beat him up again. I think he still prefers to stay in the hospital. Remember not to leave traces."

"Yes, Miss."

After giving the order, Lyra drove back to Angle Group.

...

Melvin was also investigating into the Charlotte's thing.

The results of the investigation was the same with like Lyra's. There was no much progress.

Melvin's tight brows were rampantly hostile, and his dark eyes were deep and cold.

"That woman suddenly disappeared at this juncture. Things are definitely not simple. I don't know whether this is aimed at Lyra or someone targets me. Must check it!!"

Chad sighed, "But she really seems to have disappeared. There is no trace or clue, boss. Do you think it is possible that she didn't leave the prison at all?"

Melvin was silent, "No way. She must not be in prison, but it's possible she's still in Frayton. She is hidden away by someone."

This someone, who could it be?

As he was thinking, Melvin's cell phone rang.

He looked at the note and it was someone who had never communicated with him since he saved the number in his phone.

Ashley.

The call was answered, and the woman's voice came like a bell, "Cousin, I haven't seen you for many years. I was wondering if you still remember me?"

"What is it?" Melvin got straight to the point. His tone was cold.

Ashley continued and laughed, "My cousin, you are still so aloof to people, but today there is indeed a business. There is a charity party in the evening. I sincerely invite you to attend as my male companion. I wonder if you're willing to do me a favor?"

Melvin frowned and didn't disguise his disgust for her.

He was about to reject it decisively.

Ashley, as if had guessed what he would say, took the lead.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse me, Melvin. I heard Lyra will attend with Mr. Carver tonight. And Mr. Carver's attitude towards Lyra is not ordinary."

With these words, Melvin fell silent.

Ashley continued: "One of them is the boss of Angle Group, and the other is the most sought-after star. If they have any intimate actions at the party, is it possible to become a news on the Internet? Cousin, are you sure you won't think about it again?"

Cody had a crush on Lyra for more than a day or two.

Melvin's dark eyes narrowed, and he seemed to be thinking about something else.

"Okay, I'll go with you."
