The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 433

Keith noticed that Jalen kept glancing at them in the rearview mirror, and he looked at him with his stern eyes.

Jalen instantly wimped out and helped lower the flap that separated the front and rear seat.

He'd better not look at or listen to them!

The moment the flap was fully lowered, Keith raised his palm up and slapped behind her with undiminished force.

It scared her!

Melissa was tearful. Her upper body was on his lap and her waist was pressed by his palm, being unable to move.

Being confused for a while, she gradually understood what was happening, suddenly wanted to cry, and her heart was incomparably hurt.

"Keith you ... nearly beat me!"

Keith sighed and explained in a serious manner, "It's a punishment. It's based on the fact that I love you. You're unreasonable, and this is the only way I can punish you to sober you up!"

"But why?" She bit her lower lip tightly.

Noticing the sobbing in her voice, Keith's large palm caressed her buttocks and he gently massaged for her.

"Just because you say you want to break up with me. I haven't agreed to it. You're still living at my place and you're still my girlfriend."

Melissa was instantly deflated, and felt ashamed and annoyed by his massaging. Her waist was pressed tightly by him and she could not move.

When she didn't say anything anymore, Keith asked softly, "Melissa, what's wrong with you? What exactly have I done wrong lately that makes you want to break up with me?"

Melissa's eyes grew red and gradually flushed with grievance.

"You want me to go back to the Callahan family several times, because only then you can marry me and not be ridiculed by anyone. Keith, do you love me more, or do you love me as the daughter of the Callahan family?"

Keith froze slightly.

So, it was this thing.

He did persuade her for many times before, hoping that Melissa would be recognized as the daughter of the Callahan family sooner. Because of this, they had fought several times before.

Perhaps it was his way of speaking that was wrong.

Reflecting seriously, he asked in a whisper, "Melissa, why do you hate the Callahan family so much? They're all your real family."

Melissa mocked herself, "Is a cage without love considered a home? Is a sibling without affection really considered family? In my eyes, they are not as important as Lyra."

For some people, even if there was no blood relationship, they were closer than family.

But for other people, even if they were really relatives, they could be as indifferent as strangers.

"I don't want to go back to the Callahan family at all. It's not a happy place for me."

Her sister, Rebecca, had never welcomed her and would prefer that she would never return.

Shane, who seemed to care most about her, was the most hard-hearted and indifferent of all, treating his relatives like subordinates, with all kinds of orders.

Not to mention the secrets of the top floor of Callahan Residence.

In her eyes, it was an eerie place that would eat people alive.

She stopped thinking those things and asked Keith, "Is it true that as long as I don't go back to the Callahan family and announce my identity, we can't get married?"

Keith sighed heavily, "Melissa, I don't care whether you are a girl from the orphanage or the daughter of Callahan family. As long as you want to get married, I am always available. Even if I'll become a joke in plutocrats' eyes, I don't care."

He helped her up and let her sit on his lap.

Cupping her face with both hands, he said seriously, "The reason why I keep persuading you to go back to the Callahan family is I want you to try to step out of your comfort zone and try to accept your loved ones more."

"I know that although you are outwardly oblivious, you actually still think of the Callahan family in your heart. You have not experienced the love of family since you were a child. And you are very happy to learn that you are a member of the Callahan family."

"But after living in that family for a few days, there's a gap with the home you have in mind. And you feel like you can't fit into it, so you keep running away."

"Melissa, I do want you to face up to these things and be really happy. For your family, I will help you to persuade."

Melissa lowered her eyes and pondered for a long time without speaking.

Keith gently pressed the back of her head and tried to kiss her.
