Lyra turned her face away, ignoring him. There was a teardrop falling from the corner of her eye, dripping silently into her hair.
She could never give what Anthony wanted, and it was impossible!
In her life, she would only love Malcolm!
Anthony sat down and felt defeated. Crying and laughing, he glanced at Lyra who was lying on the couch behind him. The original flawless neck had a deep red swollen circle of marks, which was very harsh.
It was what he just pinched.
His sanity was gradually coming back.
"I'm sorry, Lyra. I didn't mean to hurt you." He reached out and felt pitiful, to touch the red mark on her neck.
Lyra ducked and rolled over onto her back to face him.
Anthony's fingers froze, and the next second his face went cold again, forcing her shoulder back with brute force and making her look at him.
He regained the previous cold and evil aura.
"Lyra, I'm going to give you another choice. Do you want the life of the child in your belly or Malcolm's life?"
"Anthony, why do you always like to force me to make choices?" Lyra gritted her teeth and glared at him.
He raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Because it's funny, isn't it? Lyra, if Malcolm is chosen, you behave yourself and abort this baby tomorrow. We'll continue as planned, and leave it to me to silence those plutocratic dukes!"
"If you choose this child, I can set you free and call off the wedding. But Malcolm must die!"
He smiled playfully. He just wanted to see how important Malcolm was in her heart in the end!
Lyra glared at him indignantly, but her eyes flicked to the window that was not far behind Anthony, and Chad was climbing silently.
The coldness in her eyes was reduced and she said, "Anthony, I don't make a choose. I want both!"
The moment when she finished her words, there was a muffled thud in the room.
Chad took a golf club in the corner and hit Anthony hard in the back of his head.
Anthony fainted on the spot and fell to the ground unconsciously.
Noticing the injury on Lyra's neck, Chad immediately dropped the club and ran over to check on her.
"Sorry, I'm late!"
Lyra smiled, "No, I'm fine."
Chad barely sighed in relief and glanced at Anthony who was on the carpet, "Now that Anthony knows you're pregnant, what are you going to do next?"
Lyra was also looking at the unconscious Anthony and pondered for a moment.
"Harrod Gary told me that super virus serum is in Anthony's possession. Where do you think he's hiding it?"
Chad lowered his head in thought.
Lyra was also thinking and continued, "He has been living in Arzew Palace. The palace must be the safest place than outside. Maybe the serum is hidden by him in his palace. Maybe, tonight is a good opportunity! I'll go and steal it!"
"Tonight?"
Chad was a little worried, "But it's a palace dinner tonight. There are too many people!"
"Just because there are many people, it is more convenient to deceive the public. If it's in normal time, the palace is heavily guarded. It is impossible for us to approach."
Chad had mixed feelings, but he knew that this was the last and desperate choice that Lyra had!
Because Anthony already knew she was pregnant, he would only restrict her more tightly in the future, and after tonight, it would be difficult to get the serum in any other way.
