Since Collin was willing to help her, Lyra softened her tone and reminded him cautiously, "I'm leaving this to you, and you've agreed. If Anne Windsor runs off with Paul Hoare, I'll believe you choose to stand by her and deliberately do nothing."
Lyra was clear about Collin's strength. Even if he had been suspended for almost a year and had not worked, his connection was always solid. As long as he really wanted to get this done, it will not miss the mark.
Lyra did not accept any reason for the failure of taking Anne and Paul back, and she would blame Collin for that.
Collin understood what she meant and nodded, "Got it. I'll get on it right away."
With the last two or three hours before the 11 p.m. international flight, Lyra just had to wait quietly for Collin to handle it.
She reached toward Collin and gestured for the test to be given to her.
Collin handed her the test result and picked up his phone to start working on Anne's flight out of the country.
Lyra gave him time to deal with it, left the master bedroom and went downstairs to exchange with Kathleen and Abigail about Anne tonight.

After dropping off Lyra, Malcolm went back to the White Mansion.
It was already evening. Because Rudolph had not yet awakened and was still receiving infusion therapy, those Whites were in the living room and none of them dared to leave.
Malcolm steadily walked into the garden, but did not enter the living room, which was very brightly lit. Malcolm stood right in front of the window in the garden, looking at the expressions of everyone in the living room all over.
Charles and Chad were standing just behind him.
He asked, "The last person grandpa saw before he fell into a coma was Travis. I heard he even knelt down in front of Grandpa's bed and cried, so how come I don't see him here? Where did he go?"
Charles was slightly confused, "Mr. Travis has been in the living room since he was driven downstairs by Mrs. White. I've sent two servants to keep an eye on him. Maybe ... he's gone to the bathroom. I'll find someone to ask about it."
Malcolm nodded his head in acquiescence.
He was back, and Travis was most suspect one if he ran away at this juncture.
After all, he was Rudolph's grandson, and Malcolm hoped that Travis would not be out of his mind to such an extent.
Five minutes later, Charles returned.
"Mr. Malcolm, Mr. Travis is missing. I sent two servants to keep an eye on him before but I don't know when he got away."
Since Travis couldn't be found, Malcolm knew what to do. He instructed Chad, "Obtain the garage surveillance. See if Travis drove out, and get him back as soon as possible."
"Okay."
Chad turned to run his errands. Malcolm returned with a uniform still on, and his aura was stern and serious. Then he walked into the living room.
In the living room, they were chatting and the moment when they saw him, they all stopped and got up to look at him.
"Mr. Malcolm."
Malcolm nodded slightly.
Instead of going to the main sofa and sitting down, he walked to the open space opposite the coffee table and looked at the group the Whites.
"Mr. Micah and the medical team are upstairs. With them, grandpa will not have any problem. It's already late. There is no need for everyone to keep watching. You can leave now."
He personally came to give the eviction order and the crowd had no reason to stay. What was more, most of them were just faking concerning about Rudolph and just felt embarrassed to leave.
With Malcolm's words, they quickly lined up and scrambled to leave the villa.
In a few minutes, the large villa resumed its usual quiet.
Malcolm indifferently watched the Whites leave, looking cold.
