There must be more to her history than that.
As Melvin was lost in his thoughts, Fred had taken a taxi to the scene. Seeing the fainted men scattered here and there on the ground, he heaved a long sigh of relief.
The boss was really tough!
Melvin glanced at him, "Just in time, pack up all these people and bring them back. Find out who is behind it."
"Copy that." Fred nodded.
"Also, send someone to investigate Lyra's background. I want details."
"Yes, boss."
...
It was late when Lyra returned to the villa.
Keith was sitting on the couch waiting for her.
She told him what had happened tonight in details. Keith was angry and immediately sent someone to investigate it as well.
On the way back, Lyra had thought the matter over.
In addition to the person of the Lloyd family who tried to harm her, she did not have a feud with others. But if that person had known her whereabouts, it wouldn't have been as simple as a few gangsters coming to assault her and make a video about it.
Therefore, this was more like the Freeman's way of doing things, and she didn't believe Melvin was gonna be impartial when he found out the truth, so Keith's people had to investigate the matter as well.
Lyra went upstairs, took a shower and got to bed.
Early in the next morning.
She arrived at the office on time. Having just finished familiarizing herself with the materials yesterday, today she was already able to work on the arrangements for artists' activities.
Stacy was surprised at how quickly she managed to pick up her job and didn't dare to make things difficult for her anymore.
After a peaceful morning, Lyra stretched herself and was in an exceptionally relaxed mood.
However, just after lunch, her office door was slammed open.
Stacy rushed in with irritation on her face.
Lyra frowned, "Miss Kim, don't you know to knock first before you come in?"
Instead of answering her, Stacy slammed the iPad in front of her, "Look at what you've done!"
Lyra took the iPad and saw a picture of her artist Cody Carver having a fit on the set. Fortunately, his manager stopped the picture from spreading; otherwise, Cody would have been accused of putting on airs.
Lyra was speechless. She only rejected his application for a one day's leave, because he wanted to go out for fun instead of get his job done. And he made such a big scene?
"He is a popular idol. Just one day off, but you reject it! Now you've offended our young Satan here. I'm not cleaning up this mess for you!"
Stacy grunted with her arms crossed.
Lyra closed the iPad, grabbed her car keys and headed out.
Stacy caught up with her and asked, "Where are you going?"
"To the film set."
At the word, Stacy hurried to follow.
Cody Carver was notorious for his awful temper, and he had got like a million tricks to torture people. Stacy couldn't wait to see Lyra's face when she got crushed by Cody.
By then, she would bring this matter to the meeting. See how many days Lyra could sit in at position!
Cody's TV series was financed by the Angle Group and had just started shooting a few days ago. The crew was filming in Kellywood and Lyra flew over there in half an hour with Stacy.
Once they arrived at the set, the two heard a loud bang from afar, the sound of falling chairs.
As they approached, a handsome eighteen-year-old was having a fit of rage.
The agent and the assistant were too frightened to say anything, and other staff members of the crew were also hiding away.
Only the cleaning lady saw him making a mess and stepped forward to stop it.
"You kid! Look what you've done! Even though your family is rich, you shouldn't be so wasteful!"
The angry teenager did not listen to advice, but picked up the vase next to him, ready to smash it. "Yes, my family is rich! I can pay for everything I break. It's not your turn to talk!"
"Don't break this!"
