The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 187

Discount?

So, he was kind of begging for mercy?

Lyra pursed her lips and laughed lightly. He just accepted the punishment and was quite tough. Now he was frightened. She thought he was not afraid of pain.

Without speaking, she went to unbuckle the belt.

Melvin tried to hide, but his arms were pressed by her. Finally he could only bury his face in the comforter again, feeling disheartened.

It looked like she didn't agree to a lighter penalty ...

Just now he used all his strength to fight the pain of removing the rotting flesh in the wound, and now his body was weak and feeble.

If he was really whipped by Twelve in the garden for two hundred times, he would faint, right?

If he fainted, Lyra would certainly notice that something was wrong, and may also take the opportunity to check his injury. It had been three days, and the injury of sulfuric acid was clearly different from his injury on his back. Lyra was sagacious. It can not be hidden certainly.

As he was thinking, Lyra had already unbuckled his belt for him.

She stood by the edge of the bed, cocking her head to observe his reaction, "Let’s go?"

Melvin didn't move.

Lyra didn't expect him to move and turned around to close the window.

Melvin thought she was going out of the room, clutched her wrist and said in a soft tone, "Lyra, although my body has recovered, the back injury still hurts. I do not have the strength ..." This punishment was too heavy. He might not withstand this.

He took a deep breath and continued, "If I can't get a discount, can you ... do it later?"

The implication was that he would receive it after he was healed.

Lyra only wanted to tease him, not to punish him.

His wound was still bleeding on his back, not to mention the fact that he was injured because of her. Although she had given him the antidote to the 023 and returned the favor, she wasn't so unreasonable as to punish a sick man.

She sat down again on the edge of Melvin's bed and asked him in a serious manner.

"Then tell me honestly why you've been in such a bad state for the past two days? The 023 drug can only exacerbate the pain of burns and doesn't have much effect on your body.What else are you hiding from me?"

Melvin thought for a moment and sat up slowly. He slightly bowed his ink-black eyes, not looking at her.

"I caught a cold the day the acid was thrown on me. I did the cleaning at the villa for a whole day. That is why I was always weak and feeble for the past two days. I have nothing to hide from you."

Lyra followed his logic, so it seemed to make sense.

When he was weak, he suffered the acid burn. After using the antidote, the strength recovered a lot.

It did make sense.

"I'll believe you this time. And I'll keep this in mind. Next time, if you dare to cheat me again, I’ll double the punishment."

Melvin lowered his head and gave a soft "hmm".

He has the last seven days. He was afraid ...

There was no next time.

Lyra, not knowing what was in his mind, got up and walked to the window. She closed it and said, "I have some business to take care of in the next two days. You stay at home and don't go out."

"Yes."

"Have a rest."

Lyra turned and left his room. Then she closed the door and went straight downstairs to the living room.

Eleven and the others were placed on the sofa. They had woken up. Because of the great amount of anesthesia, they were still a little dizzy.

Lyra walked across to them, looked at them and asked Fifteen who looked relatively the most sober.

"Fifteen, who did you see before you fainted?"

Fifteen recalled carefully, "Chad."
