After divorce I am a billionaire -
Chapter 398 the Lloyd family is having a return party
Lyra's eyes instantly went cold.
She smiled sarcastically as she remembered what happened yesterday at the Lloyd Manor.
"Even you don't believe this test, my brothers who have loved me for more than twenty years believe it. It's really ridiculous to think about it."
"As for your advice about having Micah come here ....," the sarcasm of her tone intensified, "he is the first to believe it when he saw the report with the president's signature yesterday." Now throughout the Lloyds, she trusted no one.
Irene was secretly released and went to her opening ceremony. Before she left, she yelled at her and taunted, "The one in your family has been pretending to be an innocent sheep around you for so long. I'm really looking forward to the day when you see his true face!"
"It must be hard to be betrayed by the one you love so much! Lyra Lloyd! I'm waiting for the day when you know the truth and fall apart!"
Previously, she thought that Irene was slandering Malcolm.
Now when she thought about it, which brother should she be mentioning?
At the thought of this, Lyra was bitterly disappointed to the extreme.
Malcolm was once again deep in thought.
He had only heard about yesterday's incident at the Lloyd Manor from Lyra.
However, with his previous contact with several brothers, he felt that they were not such stupid people. It was impossible for them not to think through these doubtful things. Especially Micah.
Micah was usually quiet and didn't show his emotions on his face. And he was the most scheming one among his brothers.
Although Micah said little, the doting on Lyra was no more than Collin and Keith.
If he didn't really love Lyra, Micah wouldn't have gone to all the trouble of giving him problems and making him experience the pain of childbirth to feel the pain that Lyra would suffer in the future because of him.
And Micah and Keith personally went to prepare the three glasses of wine.
How can their good intentions for Lyra be offset by a paternity test?
"Rara, maybe it's because the news came so suddenly that they didn't have time to react. When they figure it out, I'm sure they'll believe in you."
Malcolm's thoughts were basically the same as Kathleen's yesterday.
Lyra didn't want to discuss about her brothers so she changed the subject, "About why my dad fell down from the stairs, Ethel explained it clearly yesterday but I always felt something was wrong." "Even if my dad really was furious about that paternity test, he wouldn't have been so uncool as to let himself fall down the stairs so easily. And neither Claudia nor Douglas happened to be around." Malcolm pondered seriously, "This is not easy to investigate. After all, if the National Investigation Bureau orders to subpoena the Lloyd family's servants, it will alert the enemy."
"You're right. When there's a chance, we can look into this matter later."
Someone's beautiful and delicate face appeared in Lyra's mind, "Check Ethel first. Where has she been lately and whom has she been getting close to."
"Okay, I'll instruct Chad in a moment."
Lyra clutched the report in her hand, and continued in a deep voice, "Check Casper Hall, the president of the hospital. I don't trust him. His recent whereabouts, his family's situation and bills should be checked thoroughly."
"Don't worry. Chad is absolutely thorough in his work."
Malcolm cupped her face and kissed on her soft lips, "But now...I want your a little comfort ..."
He lightly caressed the tip of her nose. His dark eyes stared at her expectantly, trying to divert her mind from being worried by these trivial matters.
Lyra raised her eyebrows and pretended not to understand. Her thoughts were really carried by him, "Why? You're not happy?"
Malcolm nuzzled into her arms, and pouted, "Rara, I'm so poor now. I'll have to rely on you to support me in the future. I only have you and want to be spoiled by you ..."
If Lyra abandoned him this time, then he would truly lose both her and money.
But he knew that Lyra would never do that, ever.
Lyra took his face in both hands and kissed him, then pinned him down her body. "Okay, I'll spoil you!"
She took the quilt and covered her whole body to cover those bashful sounds.
Malcolm went to the bathroom to take a shower, feeling refreshed.
Lyra went in and washed her hands, and by the way pinched his firm and bare buttocks with abandon.
It took a while before she went back to sit on the edge of the bed. Then she took out a plant-based hand cream and applied it on her fingers that had been slightly red. The phone rang and it was a news feed from Twitter.
She glanced at it and saw the familiar word of "Lloyd". Immediately, her face turned serious and she picked up her phone to tap on the news and check the details.
The Lloyd family wanted to publicly recognize Ethel as the youngest daughter of Lloyds, saying she disappeared years ago and had only returned recently.
Five days later, the family would host a grand return party to this Ethel Lloyd.
And on the same day, the Lloyd family's inheritance right would be officially signed by her lawyer.
A bunch of uninformed netizens were blessing the famous actress, who turned out to be the youngest daughter of the Lloyd family, and even the inheritance was offered to her at the return party. This was an unparalleled favor!
Lyra browsed the news feed. Her heart ached dully, and once again she felt chilly all over her body.
Without guessing, she knew who made all these decisions.
Collin deliberately hid the fact that Ethel was an illegitimate daughter, and was going to hand over the whole family to such an unscrupulous woman.
Ridiculous, it was just ridiculous!
Malcolm, wrapped in a bath towel and holding a towel to dry his wet hair, emerged from the bathroom as soon as he saw Lyra who was lost in thought and sitting on the edge of the bed.
He immediately looked grim as well, walked over and took her phone, and quickly skimmed through the news she was reading.
"Rara, this could be ..."
At this point, he didn't even know how to explain why Collin did so.
Lyra smiled lightly, "Since they all think I'm not the daughter of the Lloyd family, why should I care if I ever had that identity?"
"As for the return party."
She smiled and actually was not happy at all. Her tone was unusually cold, "As the only richest woman in Crana, how can I be absent at the Lloyd family's party?"
It was not in her character not to stir up a storm.
Malcolm held her warm palm and stayed with her.
In the afternoon.
Malcolm drove her to the hospital for a routine pregnancy test.
Perhaps because of her recent depression, several indicators were high, and the doctor repeatedly told her not to be emotional.
While Lyra was inside doing various tests, Malcolm was sitting outside.
Chad learned that he was in the hospital and immediately ran over to replace him.
"Bro, grandpa asks you to go to the ancestral hall..." Chad expression didn't look very good. And he looked at Malcolm worryingly.
Malcolm didn't have much of an expression, "I'll be back as soon as Rara's the pregnancy test is done."
"I heard grandpa doesn't look too good. And Travis is there, so I guess he'll denounce you publicly. It's urgent. He wants you to go back right away." Chad whispered to remind him and stood obediently to wait for him.
