Chapter 189 I'll personally cook for you
As soon as Elizabeth saw Anthony bring the police officers in, she instantly sank into the sofa.
She had clearly heard from her acquaintance at the police department that Anthony was leaving
Frayton, so why hadn't he left yet?
With Anthony here, she was afraid it would be a difficult day.
The Harrington family's of bodyguards quickly got frightened after the group of police officers rushed in
with electric batons.
Ashley also sat on the floor being utterly depressed.
However, Anthony came in and kept his eyes looking at Lyra.
He walked over to Lyra and sat next to her, sitting upright and straight.
Lyra subconsciously frowned, but soon withdrew her unknown emotions, and looked at Elizabeth and
Ashley again.
"Ashley, I don’t bother to continue the nonsense. In short, for the things you and the Harrington family
committed, the police department should have its own judgement. And you have to pay back my
money with interests. If you don’t have enough money, then sell the property and mortgage Harrington
Group. "
They were very reluctant but remained mute under Anthony's pressure.
Lyra stroked the hem of her skirt and looked at Anthony who was beside her.
"Anthony, I'm a little tired, so I'll leave you to take care of it. By the way, Ashley likes to shred paper. Let
her shred all the paper in the room and bring her to the police department. What do you think?"
Anthony raised his eyes. His blue pupils were deep and gentle.
"All yours, but ..."
He paused and gently took Lyra's hand before continuing, "I did you such a big favor, but you suddenly
stood me up last night. You should make it up to me today, right?"
Lyra smiled with arched eyebrows and said in a soft voice, "Of course, to make it up to you, you can
come to Seaside Villa tonight and I'll personally cook for you when you're done with the business. How
about that?"
Anthony was surprised.
But he thought of the annoying person in her villa, "But there is one person in your villa that I don't want
to see."
"It’s not a big deal."
Lyra smiled indifferently, "He's just my servant. We can drink tonight. I'll have him stand right next to
you and pour you the wine. What do you think?"
Anthony looked at her expression which was so composed. His blue eyes were flooded with favor and
he said with a smile, "Okay, it’s decided."
"Then I'll go back first and wait for you tonight."
She pulled her hand out of Anthony's and looked to Nineteen again, "You stay and see if Anthony
needs any help. No slacking off."
"Yes, Miss."
After giving the order, Lyra withdrew her gaze and exited, leaving the stage to Anthony and the police
department.
It was only when she got into the car that her face gradually turned cold.
She took out a piece of wet tissue in her bag to wipe her hands.
After dealing with the Harrington family, it was still early, so she went to the Angle Group and wanted to
pay more attention to the progress of Cody and Melissa's recent shootings.
She was busy in working until the afternoon and she returned to Seaside Villa two hours early.
When she returned, Melvin was squatting to scrub the floor.
Because of the antidote, it was much easier when doing chores.
Seeing Lyra back so early, Melvin was a little surprised, "You're back so early today. You shouldn't want
to have dinner so soon yet, right?"
Lyra nodded gently and just stood in the doorway without moving.
Melvin consciously stopped his work and washed his hands before walking over to help her take out
the slippers from the shoe closet and set them up.
And then he helped her take off her coat and hang it on the rack.
After doing this, he went back to continue scrubbing.
Instead of going upstairs, Lyra sat on the couch and quietly watched him doing chores.
After watching it for a few minutes, she said, "Stop it and come here."
"Okay."
Melvin went to wash his hands again, walked toward her in a disciplined manner and got down on one
knee.
Lyra was pleased with his usual obedient behavior.
She pinched his chin and observe his face.
Without the drug, his face was no longer as sickly pale as it was before, and his dark eyes were more
luminous.
Although the features were still handsome and extraordinary, they were a little sharper than they had
been, making it not easy for her to bully him.
Lyra smiled, "I still prefer your state when you are with the drug. Now you look beatable, but not easy to
be messed with, or ..."
She paused and smiled evilly, "What about re-injecting the drug? Let me continue to bully you for a few
days. And then I’ll give you antidote again when I’m tired of bullying?"
Melvin gasped and his inky pupils were slightly dilated.
Was this human language?
The pain was excruciating when the 023 drug was injected, and with the injury to his back, the pain
would have been multiplied several times over.
That kind of pain can kill him.
He felt bitter, "If your pleasure is based on my pain, I will obey unconditionally as long as it is your
command and as long as you can believe that I am sincere now."
"Really?"
Lyra lifted his chin up higher, forcing him to see her eyes.
Melvin gazed at her eyes and nodded firmly.
Seeing him be so serious, Lyra snickered and let go of the hand that was pinching his chin, "Just
kidding. I'm not so vicious and heartless."
Melvin narrowed his eyes and didn't say anything.
Once the joke was over, Lyra changed into a serious look and started to talk about business, "Those
guys of yours don't look weak, especially Chad. If they fight with the trained military elites, what are the
chances of winning?"
"If it's head-to-head, it's not easy to say. But with Chad and his team's strength, it will just take a little
time to fight each other, and the chances of losing are not great."
Lyra softly replied with "Oh" with head down to contemplate.
"Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Lyra answered, "Tonight, Anthony is coming to the villa for dinner."
Melvin did not speak, almost subconsciously wrinkled his brow. And his gaze instantly darkened.
Lyra notice his reaction and leaned close to his ear, whispering a few words.
...
Evening.
It was about the time when Anthony arrived, Lyra stood in front of Seaside Villa and waited.
Anthony came directly in a military service vehicle, bringing only two of his closest men with him.
He just stepped out of the car and looked up to see Lyra who was still in fine makeup and had come
out to pick him up, and he couldn't hide his happiness.
"Lyra, you are so beautiful tonight. We just saw each other during the day. It's only been a few hours
and I feel like it's been half a month. I can't believe I miss you."
"Why are you glib too?"
Lyra gave him a soft look and continued, "It’s tough day. How are things going with the Harrington
family?"
"Harrington Group has declared bankruptcy auction. As for the money they blackmailed the Freeman
group before, I will make them return it all back. But the amount is not small. It will take time. As for Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Ashley, she is sentenced to life imprisonment. I know you must prefer her to live and being tortured."
Lyra just laughed and didn't say anything.
The two walked side by side through the garden.
As he entered the villa's living room, Anthony leaned close to her ear intimately, "Rebecca is going to
follow me tonight, but I didn't bring her because I didn't want her to interrupt our two ..."
He abruptly stopped.
Because he noticed Melvin standing in the stairwell, those dark eyes were staring at him in a cold and
sinister way.
Anthony's face didn't look too good either.
The two men's eyes were far from each other, and instantly the atmosphere was intense.
