Ethel's face froze.
After a while, she could only reluctantly lower her head, "Yes."
"Good girl! That's what the daughter of Lloyd family is supposed to be." Keith smiled and stroked her head.
After stroking her head perfunctorily, he took the lead and turned his head away, saying resentfully, "Change your clothes back. Your face is injured. You should not be able to choose today. We can come here another day."
...
Lyra made her way out of the shopping district.
It wasn't until she got into the car that she opened her bag again and took out a small note.
This was what Keith forced into her right hand when he was helping her just now.
Unfolding the note, it contained only one sentence.
[Give me some time.]
Lyra's brows furrowed as she gazed silently at the nice handwriting.
Why should he be given time?
Did he find something and was he quietly investigating?
As she was thinking about it, her phone rang and it was Malcolm's calling.
Once the phone was connected, his voice sounded slightly sorrowful, "You went out. Why didn't you even wake me up?"
Lyra coaxed gently, "I'm done here. I'll be back soon. I just saw you sleeping soundly. I couldn't bear to wake you up."
Malcolm, who was on the other end of the line, still huddled himself under the comforter, and grunted in confusion before continuing, "What did you do? Did you get hurt?"
A the mention of this, Lyra just felt good, "Just slapped a bitch a few times. I'm feeling very good!"
"You did?"
Malcolm's tone became anxious, "Did you hurt your hand? Come back and I'll massage it for you."
Lyra smiled and felt sweet, "I'm not that fragile. I'm having a good time!"
The two chatted on the phone for ten minutes or so later, then Lyra returned to Lyre Spiti.
When she arrived, Malcolm was already up and done washing up, but still in his loose silk robe.
When she opened the door, Malcolm was standing behind it, gently took her into his arms and claimed the scent that belonged to her.
As if he got up on the wrong side of the bed, he felt soft and put his head on Lyra's shoulder, grunting and fawning in a small voice.
"It's feeling hard to wake up alone ..."
Lyra caressed the back of his head without saying a word.
Chad came in from the garden and just walked up to Lyre Spiti's door. He saw the door open and Malcolm's pampered look in her delicate body, which was instantly reflected in his eyes.
This scene was so beautiful that Chad couldn't help but laugh.
However, he came over today with business.
Thinking of this, he had to pretend to cough heavily to interrupt the warm picture in front of him.
Hearing Chad's voice, the two immediately went alert and let go of each other.
Chad handed over a investigation report, "This is the result of Casper Hall's investigation. He does have some problems."
Lyra and Malcolm instantly became serious expression. Even the speed of cooling down was almost the same.
Malcolm took the report in Chad's hand, helped Lyra to sit down on a sofa, and went through it carefully with Lyra.
Casper's mother was in her eighties, and he secretly transferred her abroad the other day.
It was after that day that Casper did the paternity test for Lyra and Reginald, and the next day at Chad's request, he did the test for Lyra and Clark again.
The day after the paternity test, he left the country on a private jet.
The destination was unknown and the return date was unknown as well.
However, all the property under his name was transferred abroad. It seemed that he should not intend to return.
Lyra finished reading the investigation, and her eyes looked extra cold, "Both paternity tests were done by him alone, but Chad couldn't guard him and watch him doing test for a moment. For Casper, he is an elite in the medical field. It's easy to tamper with a few data unknowingly."
Malcolm nodded, "His mother was sent out of the country, presumably by whoever deliberately threatens him with this. And the paternity test is not credible."
Chad followed, "Then do you want to do another paternity test? I can quietly go to other downtown hospitals to do so. It can ensure that no one will fiddle it."
Lyra thought deeply and nodded decisively.
