The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 30

Melvin called the housekeeper in.

"From today onwards, Lady Fiona and Miss Freeman are grounded together. No one is allowed to let them out without my permission. And if anyone dares to disobey, they will be dealt with according to the Freeman Manor's severest punishment."

"Huh?"

He was not gonna get even with that bitch Lyra?

Fiona blew her stack, pointing at Melvin and scolding him relentlessly, saying that he was an ungrateful bastard, heartless, disobedient and unfilial ...

Melvin let her be and didn't say another word, leaving the room with a sullen face.

He called in Fred.

"Whatever was smashed, have them replaced as soon as possible, and then send someone to keep an eye on the Freeman Manor. Any phone call must be monitored and reported to me quickly."

"Yes." Fred gave him a hesitant glance, "...But boss, would that be a bit too harsh on the lady and Miss Freeman? Miss Carroll is so merciless on this."

When he thought of the misery Fiona and Sheila had gone through, Fred couldn't bear it. He didn't understand why Boss was so protective of that Lyra.

He could even tolerate her making such a mess to the Freeman Manor.

Melvin uncharacteristically did not get angry or shout at him to get lost. He just asked in an emotionless tone, "If someone has set you up several times which almost kills you, and you suffered a lot because of it, would you forgive him?"

"Of course not!" Fred answered firmly, "I'll find a chance to get back at him."

As soon as he finished, he froze on the spot.

Melvin didn't say another word and walked away without looking back.

...

Having settled the score with those two women, Lyra was high-spirited on her way home.

The gifts from her big brother and second brother, Collin and Micah, were also successfully delivered.

She couldn't wait to open one of the gift boxes, but she did not expect that it was..

A small, self-made plane model from the Bureau of Aeronautics!

Shit!

Had Collin forgotten that she was not a 15-year-old kid anymore!

She had been looking forward to his gift for so long.

Keith was laughing next to her, and when he saw that her face was red with anger, he coughed to hide his amusement. "Rara, this is a limited-edition plane made by Collin himself. Not even money can buy it. There's only one of it. It's unique, it's just for you!"

Lyra rolled her eyes.

Luckily, Micah's gift was not bad and relieved her anger at Collin.

It was a beautiful Emerald Green Ring with a hidden mechanism inside that could pop up a silver needle— a useful weapon when necessary.

She put the ring on, and as for the small plane, she put it in the corner of her room.

And after that, she went to shower and get in bed.

The next day, Lyra arrived at work on time.

As she pushed open the office door, she saw a slender and unfamiliar figure standing in front of her desk.

The woman heard the door open and turned her head to meet Lyra's eyes.

Her almond-shaped eyes on a small round face were filled with condescension and contempt, which turned into jealousy and hate as the woman was sizing Lyra up .

This strange woman seemed to be very hostile to her, huh?

Without waiting for Lyra to speak, the strange woman took the initiative and said, "Emily at the reception had told me about you, but I didn't believe her. Now that I've seen you, you really look like a witch."

Lyra was baffled.

She went straight past the woman to sit on the office chair and spoke, "This lady, I have to work. Please leave."

The woman ignored her words and warned in a cold voice, "It's fine if you want to make a living in the Angle Group, but you must stay away from Keith. If I find out that you dare to seduce him or have an immoral relationship with him, I'll make you suffer worse than death!"

"Keith?" Lyra became interested, "You like him?"

The woman folded her arms proudly and sneered, "I'm his fiancée."

Fiancée?
