The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 343

Caesar was always mindful of the fact that he was the older brother and did not speak.

Harrod was just a short distance away, talking and laughing with the other dukes, when he noticed what was going on over here.

With a serious face, he approached with a heavy step, "Charles Lance, don't forget your lowly status! Are you worthy of Caesar's attention?"

Anthony saw him coming and his expression became even more irritated, "Duke Gary, don't forget Princess Cayley takes me in as her adopted son. For all intents and purposes, I'm Caesar's nominal brother."

Harrod's face was particularly distorted at the mention of this, and he walked away with a grunt and a glass of champagne.

The banquet hall was glorious, and there was a violin playing band. The music was lively and melodious, which soon dispelled the unpleasant atmosphere just now.

In Caesar's sky-blue eyes, there was only Lyra. As a gentleman, he waved his hand elegantly at her, "Beautiful Miss Lyra, may I invite you to dance?"

Lyra's red lips were slightly open and she was about to answer when Anthony said first, "Asking my companion to dance? Caesar, are you shameless?"

He gave Caesar a cold look and slowly extended his hand towards Lyra as well.

"Lyra, the dance floor is so lively. Let's go over there and have some fun together?"

Lyra looked at the two men back and forth twice, grabbed the cuffs of their suits and put them in each other's hands.

"I'm not much of a dancer, so you guys go have fun. I want to go to the bathroom first. I'll come back soon."

Anthony was uneasy, "The palace is too big. You'll easily lose your way. I'll ask Mason to take you there."

Lyra's eyebrows tightened, "You're asking Mason, a man, to go to the bathroom with me? This is too strange. I can find my way. If I really can't find it, I can ask the maid."

"But ..."

Anthony was really uneasy, "Then I'll go with you. and I'll wait for you outside."

Chad, who was silently following behind him, held his breath. Anthony's vigilance was too strong to be fooled.

Lyra was worried about how to say no so that Anthony wouldn't get suspicious.

Princess Cayley's maid suddenly approached, "Master Charles, Princess Cayley wants you to come over to talk something."

Lyra took the opportunity to say, "Princess Cayley must be looking for you on important business. I just need to go to the bathroom. Can I run away?"

Anthony hesitated and and finally compromised, "Be safe. I'll come to you soon."

Lyra nodded her head in agreement.

Anthony immediately followed the maid and left.

As soon as he left, Lyra immediately approached Caesar and whispered, "Where does Duke Gary go? Please take me to him. I need to talk to him."

Caesar said seriously, "Miss Lyra, please come with me."

Harrod had been waiting in a separate lounge for a long time.

Once Lyra was inside, Chad wandered down the hallway as if nothing was wrong, being on the lookout.

Caesar was drove out by his father and chatted with Chad outside the door.

In the lounge, Lyra saluted Harrod, "Hello Duke Gary, time is limited. I'll keep it short."

Harrod sat upright and nodded.

"I believe you're willing to see me because you have checked me out. Our cooperation is simple. I help you get Crana's duty-free trade privilege from Collin. You help me get what I want. We each take what we need."

Harrod stroked his beard and looked at her with his muddy eyes.

"As you can see, I'm in an unusual position as a duke and the husband of Princess Cayley. A tax-free trade privilege isn't that interesting to me."

Lyra laughed, "Duke Gary, why bother beating around the bush with me? You've been suppressed by Princess Cayley's identity for half your life. To get tax-free trading privilege means you can become financially independent under Princess Cayley's nose and get out of her control sooner."

"Or, if you don't find this offer tempting enough. I can still help you kill Charles Lance!"
