The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 137

Chad?

The name sounded quite familiar.

"What's his relationship with Fred?"

Melvin didn't intend to hide it from her, "It's all my men."

Lyra propped her hand on her chin, pinned her elbow on her knee, and cocked her head to observe him.

She was extraordinarily delicate with this look, and her graceful features were displayed up close in front of Melvin.

Melvin's heart missed a beat.

This woman ... she did not know that her expression was very charming?

Just as he was thinking, Lyra spoke up, "I can't believe you still have men willing to follow you. I'm afraid you still have private property, right?"

Private property didn't matter. He actually had a lot of secrets, but can not tell her now.

Melvin was a bit pleased, "Is this your way of trying to control my personal property? I don't really care about money. I can turn it all in if you want."

Lyra gave him a blank look.

"I'm not interested in your money. I'm just curious. You can obviously use the money to redeem the manor and at least make life easier for your mother and your sister."

He lowered his head, "My mother is mean and my sister is spoiled. They both bully you, so this is my punishment for them."

Lyra was a little surprised, "I'm just your ex-wife. They're all your family. You can be so hard on them?"

Melvin had always been very principled.

"Wrong is wrong. I will not be biased. I can take this opportunity just to sharpen their natures."

Although there was nothing wrong with this statement, Lyra always felt something strange.

"Forget about Sheila. Fiona is your mother. Aren't you afraid that she will scold you for being ungrateful?"

Melvin's head lowered so that Lyra could not see his expression.

He was silent for a moment before saying, "She can take it, and if it's something she can't take, I'll take it for her."

In this regard, Lyra was a bit appreciative of his style of handling.

"I'm going back to Angle Group. You keep busy."

"Okay."

Lyra got up and headed for the door, but found him still crouching from the corner of her eye, "I'm leaving and you're still not up?"

Melvin's face went pale, "My legs ... are numb."

Lyra chuckled, left him alone, and opened the door to go out.

Before she left, she told Jackie about his request to have an assistant.

Jackie was very quick to do her job. And in that afternoon, Chad came to Melvin's office.

"Boss, it's fabulous. You won't have to sneak around to meet me in the future. You haven't aroused Miss Carroll's suspicion, awesome!"

Melvin was busy with working, suddenly attracted by his words and looked over suspiciously.

"What do you mean by sneaking around to meet you? What I do is all proper business!"

He viciously picked up a ballpoint pen on the table and smashed it over.

Chad did not dodge. His head was hit squarely, mournfully rubbing his head.

"Boss you are so cruel. I have a concussion, you have to pay for my work injury."

"Still playful?" Melvin's eyes were cold and he picked up another pen.

Chad wimped out, "I was wrong wrong wrong! I won't dare next time!"

The drama was over, and the business was still to be discussed.

Chad first checked the entire office to make sure there weren't any listening devices before handing him the information he pried out from Fred.

Melvin read through Fred's confession and the timeline of events which were well organized.

"Boss, with this evidence from Fred, you will be able to prove Miss Carroll your innocence."

Melvin did not say anything.
