The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 193

Lyra didn't hide it either, "Yes, if not, how can I catch you?"

Anthony smiled, which looked a little bleak.

"When did you start guarding against me?"

"From the moment you took out the revolver and asked me to choose between Melvin and Charlotte. I felt something was wrong with you."

How dared she suspect him from that moment on?

Anthony stared at her and was somewhat incredulous.

She continued expressionlessly, "It wasn't until the last time you were leaving Frayton, I accidentally saw the man in black in the hallway of Fantalure Bar. Coupled with the acid incident that day, I suspected you had a connection with the one in the Lloyd family who tried to kill me."

Anthony smiled miserably, "So it is."

"Anthony, you are indeed the only person I ever admired when I was a kid. But why do you want to kill me?"

He shook his head and was still in denial, "I don't. Your family announced your death before. You don't know how sad I was. I didn't know you are alive until half a month ago, and only by pretending to cooperate can I have the chance to come to Frayton to see you."

"If you still love me, I'll fight them to the end for you, but ... you have an extra annoying person by your side!"

"The day in bar, I was standing on the second floor. I didn't want to make a move until Melvin came in. I knew he would protect you, so I did it. I was not trying to target you. How could I let you to get hurt?"

He spoke without interruption. His eyes gazed at Lyra sincerely. Despite that his face was stained with blood, it still can not hide his good-looking face.

However, Lyra had no time to admire his face but sneered.

"Don't you think it's ridiculous to say that? If he wouldn't have helped me, I would be the one who is injured now. And you're still saying you didn't target me."

Her eyes grew colder and colder, not bothering to continue the nonsense, "Don't hide it from me. I just want to know who harms me. As long as you tell me, I won't make things difficult for you."

Anthony lowered his eyes, and the corners of his lips were turned downward sadly.

"You might leave me alone, but he won't."

He?

Lyra frowned, "Who are you talking about?"

Anthony re-raised his eyes to look at her and spoke very painfully, "Lyra, your pet, he is no good. He has been using his acting skills to deceive you and hoodwink you. He has more secrets than I do. You must not fall for his tricks!"

"He has secrets. I always knew that. I just didn't bother to dig them up." Lyra looked calm.

Anyway, she and Melvin only had a one-year agreement. When it was expired, they would be completely isolated from each other all their lives. And she was not interested in his secrets.

Anthony smiled surprisingly, "Looks like you don't care much about him either! Good, you should thank me. After all I helped you fix this clingy guy."

Seeing her frown, Anthony's blue pupils pretended to be surprised.

"Lyra, you don't know? Then he's really not honest. You might go back and personally examine the injury to see how much he's hiding from you."

To see his injury?

Lyra furrowed her brows. Wasn't his injury ordinary and superficial caused by the acid?

She wondered in her mind. And Anthony still had a faint smile on his face.

But that smile was a little evil. It was not like he was telling lies, but knowing something inside.

"Make it clear."

Anthony shook his head and just laughed.

Lyra was a little annoyed, but couldn't bring herself to do anything about him.

He was, after all, the boss of Security Agency and had a high status in military in Crana. She had no legitimate reason to hit him, let alone get herself and Collin into trouble.

She withdrew her gaze and turned to exit the hut.

Just as the door was closed, Melvin walked over.

"Well? Did he say?"

Lyra lowered her eyes and shook her head gently, "Anyway, it has been confirmed that he colluded with someone to harm me. Find another ways to investigate the rest. You ask Chad and the others to destroy the evidence. Do not leave any traces, and send him back quietly tomorrow."

Melvin didn't say yes.

She can take her time to find out the truth, but he can't, and he was running out of time.

"Lyra, if you believe me, leave this whole thing to me. Within two days, I'll make him spill the beans."

"You know his identity. Do you dare to hit him?"

Lyra looked at him seriously, "You did that to his face, didn't you? Do you still want to lynch him? The Security Agency and the Callahan family will not let you get away with it."

He pursed his lips and laughed, and did not pay much attention to what she said.

"Don't worry. I will take care of it."
