Melvin keenly noticed that he was sighing, "Eleven, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine." Eleven hesitated for two seconds, "Mr. Freeman, go in by yourself. I won't go in."
"Okay."
Melvin didn't delay and went straight upstairs.
As soon as the door was opened, the grim atmosphere hit him, more harsh than the rain outside.
He subconsciously held his breath, raised his eyes and crashed into the cold and stern eyes.
"Lyra, it's already eight o'clock in the evening. Are you hungry? Is it because there is too much pressure on both sides of the company lately? And you encountered something bothering you?"
His tone was gentle, with a hint of fluke.
Lyra waved at him with a fake smile, "Come here. Get closer."
Melvin dutifully walked over to her and stood beside her.
Without waiting for him to crouch down, Lyra grabbed his white shirt and lifted it off hard, exposing his waist wrapped by bandages.
Melvin was severely shocked, "Lyra, you ..."
Lyra did not listen to him at all, viciously ripped the thick bandages and tore them off.
There was no new injury on the waist except for a very long scar mark.
She sneered and mocked, "You were injured yesterday, and today your wound has scabbed? I don't know you still have the natural ability to heal yourself!"
That was a good point ...
Melvin's heart lurched.
Chad the son of bitch put forward the bad idea. He said for sure it can not hide Lyra for a long time ...
Lyra said she hated cheating, and this time he was caught in the act!
He instantly knelt down at Lyra's feet and said in a pleasing and somewhat pathetic tone, "Lyra, I was wrong. I didn't mean to lie to you ..."
In the past when he had this tone of voice, Lyra was too lazy to unmask him, although she knew he was putting on a show.
Seeing him still being like this today, she only felt disgusted, and the anger in her heart was almost burning her sanity.
She eased her emotions and asked in a cold voice, "You used the back injury to trick me, just to get her out of the way?"
Melvin froze.
She did know so quickly about him getting Garrett out of the way ...
"You know all about it. ..."
Since he was caught, Melvin didn't intend to hide it, "I'm sorry. I just don't think that's good enough for you."
So generous to admit it?
He admitted that it really was a lie to her all this time.
"What do you mean not good enough me?" Lyra clenched her palm to suppress the anger in her heart and sneered, "Melvin, you're funny. Are you trying to say the person is not worthy of a lesson from me personally? So you're going to send her away, far away, to a place where I can never see her and hide her?"
Melvin always found her statement odd.
But again, he can't say exactly what was strange, because he did mean it.
Lyra saw him muffled and asked, suppressing her anger, "Where is the man?"
Melvin still didn't say anything.
The person were sent by Chad on a random export vessel to a country that nobody knew.
He shook his head honestly.
He thought he was telling the truth, but Lyra didn't think so.
Silence was reticence resistance!
Lyra was patient for the last time, looking down at the man kneeling straight at her feet, "Melvin, you know me. I don't care how much you hide. Whether you have the ability to control people outside, but as long as you are still in this villa for one day, you are my servant. You should listen to me. Even disobedient pets will be punished, let alone you. What do you think?"
She raised her chin. Her eyes were cold as if she was really looking at a disobedient pet.
"I'll ask you again, people, where is it!"
