The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 432

Lyra and Malcolm paid extra attention to recruit a nanny because of Lola, and even the family background and experience were screened.

Finally, they selected a very kind and middle-aged woman named Sophia Ward, who was generally preferred to be called Sophia.

*

With Sophia as the nanny, Malcolm was finally liberated and lived a much more comfortable life.

The days of peace and enjoyment passed quickly.

In a flash, it was time for the babies' christening and Lyra was recovering well.

At the christening ceremony, their friends came here and all gathered around the two little babies, praising them and fondling them.

Lyra instructed Malcolm and Sophia to keep a close eye on the babies and never left them more than a meter away.

They were like rare animals, who were allowed to see but not to touch, not to mention the hug.

She, herself, came out to greet the guests at the door.

Shortly after, Keith,who was dressed up, arrived with generous congratulatory gifts.

Lyra noticed he was alone and asked curiously, "Why did you come by yourself today? Where is Melissa?"

Keith looked slightly embarrassed, "She's been quite busy with activities lately. Maybe someone told her something. I always feel like she's intentionally distant from me lately."

"You made her angry?"

"No." Keith pondered for a moment, "Isn't it normal to fight a few times now and then? She didn't used to be like this, and lately she's been especially cold to me."

Lyra: "When I'm free, I can ask about it for you?"

"Forget it, I'll take care of my own business."

Lyra patted his shoulder and seriously instructed, "Keith, you're a man. How can you be mean to her? Less quarrel in the future. It will hurt each other's heart."

"Got it."

Keith nodded and obediently listened to her lecture.

Remembering someone's instructions, he continued, "By the way, Micah just flew to Frayton last night. I guess he can't come back, so he asked me to deliver the gift on his behalf. He said next time when he returns to Suham, he will make up small gifts for his nephew and niece."

Frayton ?

Lyra wanted to know the gossip and asked deliberately, "He doesn't have any important properties in Frayton. What's he doing there?"

Keith stared at her with relief, "Of course he's chasing my future sister-in-law back! But I guess it's not that easy. He's been cold to her for half a year. Now that she's engaged and he only knows his true feelings now. I guess he will suffer a little bit."

She laughed and spared no effort to taunt him, "He deserves it! He's always been cold with a poker face. There must be a woman who can subdue him."

Keith felt the same way and nodded his head with great approval.

The two were talking when Kathleen arrived shortly after.

She came alone.

Keith saw that and asked by the way, "Kathleen, why are you alone?"

Kathleen smiled, but sadness was hidden in her eyes.

"Few days ago, it rained heavily. Collin was sick and got high fever. His knees got some problems because of kneeling at that time. As long as it's raining and season changes, his knees will hurt. And he knows when you Lyra sees him, she will be in the bad mood. So he doesn't want to come and bother."

The smile on Lyra's face gradually faded. She lowered her eyes and did not say a word.

Keith watched her expression carefully, and when she was not averse to it, he asked one more question, "Kathleen, is he still reading the Buddhist Scriptures?"

Kathleen nodded, "It's crazy. He's punishing himself like crazy. He reads the Buddhist Scriptures no matter what happens, even with a fever."

She sighed and her eyes unconsciously turned red. Recalling that today was the babies' christening, she forced a smile.

Lyra felt it strange and just said, "I have reminded him more than once. I let him stop reading, but he is too stubborn. Unless he can figure it out, other people can not persuade."

Between the three of them, the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat solemn.

The silence lasted for a few minutes, and finally Lyra was the first to laugh and bring the topic back.

"Keith, Kathleen, you guys get in there. Spencer and Molly are at Malcolm's. Go and see the little ones."

The two nodded and soon regained harmony, talking and laughing as they went inside.
