"How come you dare not let us search your bag? Is it because the diamond necklace is hidden inside your handbag?" Lumi Hawthorne questioned aggressively.Various discussions arose among the crowd."Could it be that this Miss Lyra is just money-minded?""It's hard to say. After all, she's just an ordinary staff member and can't afford such expensive jewelry."Marisol Sterling's eyes were all teary, mascara smudged, and dark clumps stuck under her eyes. She looked as unattractive as could be.Her mind was in a haze. If the four-million-dollar necklace was lost, she would have to compensate. Being new to the industry and without any substantial work, she hadn't even climbed into Ronan's bed yet. How could she afford such a huge loss?Marisol Sterling ran over, and linked her arm with Ronan's, tears and snot streaming down her face, acting helpless."Ronan, it must be this woman who stole the diamond necklace! You have to help me!" she pleaded.Ronan distanced himself somewhat disgustedly

Torin immediately nodded gently and said, "I'll drive you back."He glanced up, looking towards Ronan as if he were a victor, and calmly uttered, "Mr. Ronan, I take my leave!"Ronan, if you knew that I'm taking away your wife, what expression would you have?Torin drove Lyra back home, but she remained unusually silent throughout the journey, clearly preoccupied with something.While listening to music, Lyra couldn't help but think about Ronan, the man she couldn't understand at all.She began to wonder, can someone you fall for at first sight truly remain in your heart for a long time? But she resolved that she wouldn't like him any more in the future.Torin's handsome face was partially bathed in the dim yellow light coming through the car window. He spoke in an almost casual manner, "Ronan controls ZenithVentures, decisive and ruthless in business, but who would have thought his private life was so unsightly? One lover after another, even being jealous in public."Lyra sneered, "He
The Second Marriage with CEO Chapter 15：Confess to him
Torin fell silent for a moment, struggling to suppress his rage. Then, he started the car and drove back to his apartment. Seeing Lyra in that state, he was determined not to leave her alone, worried that something might happen to her, considering she might have other injuries.Throughout the journey, Lyra buried her face in Torin's suit jacket and curled up tightly in the passenger seat, trying to minimize her presence.Arriving at the underground parking lot of the apartment building, Torin carried Lyra out of the car. Afraid of being seen in her disheveled state, she kept her small face tightly pressed against Torin's chest. Fortunately, they encountered no one along the way.After entering the apartment and hearing the sound of the door locking, Torin settled Lyra on the sofa, but she immediately leaped up. With her head hung low, allowing her long hair to shield her distressed face, she said hesitantly, "I feel uncomfortable. I want to take a shower..."As she spoke, her voice tr

Torin's gentle tone carried an indescribable tenderness as he said, "I like you."Lyra was stunned.Torin's facial features were extremely soft, with an inexplicable tenderness in his eyes. He looked into her eyes and said in a warm voice,"I'll treat you well. I only like you, and my eyes and heart belong only to you. I will never look at another woman. Can someone like me like you?"When Torin's car arrived at the neighborhood where Lyra rented, Lyra's mind was in a haze.Torin unbuckled his seatbelt, took out a plastic bag from the backseat, and took out all the medicine boxes from inside. He softly instructed her about which medicines were for external use and which ones were for ingestion.Lyra's face didn't react, but her mind was in turmoil, like a chaotic fight."I like you.""I'll only like you.""I won't let anyone hurt you.""You don't have to rush to give me an answer; I can wait for you."From childhood to adulthood, she had never experienced love, and nobody had treated

How could he possibly be visiting the hospital to see Lyra's grandmother?Perhaps he was mistaken!In Lyra's mind, she once again firmly decided to divorce. Divorce, it must happen!She was gritting her teeth, consumed by anger when suddenly the door to the hospital room was pushed open again. She looked up in surprise, "Dad?"Orion Everly entered the room and upon seeing Lyra, immediately spoke in a stern voice, "Lyra, what are you doing here?"Upon hearing this, Lyra subconsciously clenched her fists, "Grandma is critically ill. The hospital called the Xia family, and my aunt informed me."Orion Everly frowned, "The family was busy lately, so we couldn't come to see G

Lumi Hawthorne cried out, losing all her previous arrogance.After the beating stopped, the maids escorted Lumi Hawthorne to the backyard.A moment later, there were cries for help and terrifying barking from the dogs.The sound, seemingly from hell, put the servants of the Imperial Garden on edge."Sir, the person has been thrown into Apollo's cage," the steward Zane respectfully reported.Ronan abruptly turned his head, his icy gaze suddenly sharpening.
