The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 365

Lyra quietly tucked the note back into her pocket and dropped her eyelashes in silence.

On the seat, Princess Cayley was in a poor state of mind. She looked sad and painful, so that the unaware would sigh with emotion about her great motherly love. Even if her adopted son died, she was still grief-stricken. She was really kind.

On the contrary, Lyra looked cold. Although she was good-looking, she was malicious. If she really killed the princess' adopted son, she deserved it.

The uninformed gallery had unanimously favored Princess Cayley's side.

"Charles Lance was requested to be repatriated by an international arrest warrant. He was at fault and should be handed over by the National Investigation Bureau for criminal law. Defendant Lyra Lloyd killed Charles Lance on the day of the wedding. The body was taken away and is still missing. She did such a heartless thing. We ask your honor to sentence severely!"

Lyra was lost in thought when she heard the plaintiff's attorney call out her name.

There was a phrase that caught her attention.

Anthony's body was missing?

How can ...

She clearly heard Malcolm order someone to take Anthony's body back to Crana to the Callahan family.

Could it be that the Callahan family also hated her and conspired with Princess Cayley to deliberately hide Anthony's body in order to bring her down?

Her mind was a mess.

"Your Honor, in response to the plaintiff's complaint, our defendant, who is a party, has something to say."

Mr. Carter raised his hand to speak, and then looked to Lyra, "Miss Lyra, don't be afraid. What happened to you on your wedding day at Florence Cathedral?"

The Lloyd family had it all planned out with their team of lawyers.

By the time Lyra finished vocally based on the note given, they would present Chad's injury assessment to the judge along with a host of evidence.

At this point, all eyes were on Lyra, who had her head down, as if she was still thinking about something.

"Miss Lyra! It's your turn to speak!"

Mr. Carter shouted at her again, hurriedly pulling her mind back and reminding her with his eyes, "Don't be afraid. Don't worry. The judge is fair and just!"

Lyra gave him a look, understanding the meaning in his eyes.

He was talking about putting all the blame on Anthony and letting him take the blame for everything ...

Anyway, Anthony was dead. These were just for the living, and when it was over, it won't have any impact on anyone's life.

But ...

With Anthony, Lyra couldn't do that.

Although she did not love him, she used to respect and worship him, not to mention that Anthony never hurt her.

As far as she was concerned, Anthony did not owe her anything.

No one was born to know how to love, but he just had a different way of doing it.

"Miss Lyra!"

Mr. Carter called out to her for the third time.

Lyra returned to her senses and subconsciously turned her head to look at Micah and Keith who were in the gallery.

With firm eyes, two brothers nodded to her, raising their eyebrows to indicate that she should proceed with confidence according to the plan.

Lyra sighed silently and finally spoke up.

She looked to Princess Cayley who was at the plaintiff's table and asked calmly, "Your Highness Princess Cayley, do you know what Anthony likes to eat? What does he hate the most? What is his greatest wish?"

"What do you mean?"

Not only Princess Cayley, but the whole audience was confused.

All the lawyers on the defendant's side stared at her in disbelief, and Carter was so angry that he broke a pen.

Lyra Lloyd was so unconventional!

If he lost the case, what about his bonus! What about his name as Crana's number one gold lawyer!
