Collin's face instantly turned pale and he was dumbfounded by Lyra's words.
He didn't expect that Malcolm would give her all his property and shares for Rara, regardless of the honor and interest of the entire White Corp family.
It was really ironic and funny.
"I'm sorry."
In addition to these three words, he seemed to explain more, but all seemed to be useless.
Lyra wiped away her tears and felt disappointed for Collin.
"Even if you don't do any of these things, it's your connivance that allows Ethel to be so reckless. Because you shield and hide the truth about her victimizing me, it makes me to live in exile in Frayton when I was fifteen and suffer for six years in the Freeman family."
"This injury can't be offset by a sentence that you have punished her heavily and made her have no jobs for six months!"
"On the Crane Bay Bridge in Frayton, she teamed up with Caden and got forty killers on the black market to kill me, forcing me to jump into the cold water!"
"In Frayton's Fantalure Bar, she and Vincent bribed Anthony to steal lab drugs and harm me with the S404 biochemical virus."
"She sowed discord in my relationship with Malcolm. She was Irene's counsellor, and tried to send me to Garrett's bed at Irene's birthday party!"
"And she asked you to go and get Irene and Charlotte out of jail and keep screwing things up in my life."
"This whole thing is the result of you and dad who spoil her! I will not forgive you. If you want the inheritance, I'll give you. Consider it as my return to your love and lecture over the years."
"But from now on, you and I are no longer brother and sister!"
After finishing these words in cold voice, she looked determined, and in her chilly eyes, there were hatred and anger.
She brushed past Collin.
Collin, who was also red-eyed, called out to Lyra just moments before she was about to open the door.
"Rara, I'm sorry. I didn't expect to hurt you so much. I'm not asking to be forgiven by you. I will always repent and will try to make up for you. You can let Ethel pay the price, but don't hurt her life."
What he said was still ironic. Her fingertips clenched the door handle tighter, "You really treat her differently. Even if I list her crimes one by one, you still have to speak for her."
Collin bowed his head, suppressed his guilt and said with his eyes red, "When I carried a military mission before, her mother saved my life with hers. Her mother had a great kindness to me."
"I promise to take good care of her and protect her for the rest of her life, and so does dad. Ethel is an illegitimate daughter, and dad already feels indebted. Because I made Ethel lose her mother, dad was extra tolerant and loving to Ethel."
Reginald was a good father with a mild temper and loving his children, but he was not a qualified husband. He loved three women in his life.
Collin sighed and choked with sobs as well, "Rara, this time I'm begging you. Let her go."
Lyra's heart shrank to the bottom and her body trembled uncontrollably.
Since she was a child, Collin had been the most awe-inspiring presence in her eyes.
When she made a mistake, Collin would scold and punish her. Each time after the punishment, he was the most heartbroken one and tried all the way to spoil and care for her.
Collin seemed to be a strict and indulgent role of mother. Reginald was easy-going, gentle and modest father.
But today, her beloved brother begged her for the first time for that illegitimate daughter Ethel?
She sneered and found it really ironic, "Don't call me Rara. In the future, I don't want to hear it from you again. I only have Micah and Keith. The brother I once loved has died in my heart when I was fifteen years old."
After saying these words, she opened the door and left without looking back.
