The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 572

As if relieving her, Anne continued to pat Kathleen's hand, "Don't worry ma'am. I'm just helping you and Mr. Collin get back what belongs to you. By the way, I'll help AN Group get another collaboration. How could I possibly harm anyone's life?"

She leaned in close to Kathleen's ear and whispered, "I have everything arranged. All you have to do is cooperate with me tomorrow night."

Anne was vigilant and refused to reveal the contents of the plan. Kathleen had no choice. If she made further questioning, it would be easy to arouse suspicion.

"It's late. Miss Windsor, rest early."

Kathleen withdrew her hand from Anne's, got up and headed upstairs.

Anne watched her back and wondered what she was thinking.

Next day before night.

Lyra, who was well prepared, took a trip back to Anning Hill.

Collin, because of his leg problems, did not get out of bed except for his daily toilet and bath, and even his meals were fed by Kathleen, spoon by spoon, on the bedside table.

When Lyra arrived at the villa, several cooks in the kitchen were preparing dinner in earnest, and every now and then the aroma of stir-fried vegetables would waft in.

Both Kathleen and Anne greeted her at the door. With a cold expression, she first went upstairs to the master bedroom to visit Collin who was ill.

"Kathleen, you and Miss Windsor go out first. I have something I want to talk to Collin about alone."

"Okay, don't talk too long. Dinner is almost ready."

Lyra nodded her head.

Waiting for Kathleen and Anne to leave, Lyra locked the door, walked to the bedside chair and sat down, looking at Collin who was leaning on the bed and looked weak.

Collin looked at her and asked in a hoarse voice, "What do you want to ask?"

"I want to ask what are you running from?"

Collin lowered his eyelids, "What do you mean?"

Lyra unforgivingly demolished his cover, "With your physique, even if there is rheumatism problem, you won't lie in bed for three days. It's impossible you can't walk and go downstairs to have dinner but Kathleen personally bring it up to feed you."

Collin blinked gently with his eyes lowered. No one knew what he was thinking.

Lyra continued, "Do you think you can choose to get out of my fight with Anne by doing this? Do you really know which is more important?"

Collin's hands were quietly clutching the sheet, and he did not say a word.

Lyra gave him a cold look and stood up gracefully, stroking the folds of her skirt, "You'd better think for yourself. If Anne has nothing to do with Ethel, you naturally have nothing to do with her."

"But if the truth is just the opposite, it's your turn to make a choice."

"If you choose wrong, not only me, I'm afraid Micah, Keith, even the whole family will not forgive you. You will also cause Kathleen to be implicated and squeezed out by you."

Lyra had cleared the stake with him in advance, turned around and left.

"Rara, I'm not running away. I'm just ..."

Lyra didn't want to hear it, so she resolutely unscrewed the door handle and left the master bedroom without looking back.

Looking at the empty room, Collin's heart had mixed feelings.

After exiting the master bedroom, Lyra went downstairs to the dining room, where Kathleen and Anne were already seated making small talk.

It also seemed to have a good chat.

Lyra walked over and sat down directly in the main seat.

Anne saw that she didn't even consider saving a seat for Collin and took the main seat. Her smile froze for a moment, and she quickly returned to its previous normal state.

Once they all sat down, the cooks quickly served the food.

Among the dishes on the table, there were a few dishes that Lyra was not familiar with.
