After divorce I am a billionaire
Chapter 459 Inviting is easy, but sending away is hard

Lyra raised an eyebrow and sounded playful, "You can really help me vent my anger?"

Malcolm nuzzled her soft cheek and said righteously, "I have a miracle effect that works better than any expensive drug in the world. Rara, if you don't believe me, check it out for yourself." He leaned in, kissed her red lips and rubbed them together.

The two kissed as they walked up the stairs.

Sophia came downstairs and saw that sweet scene in time. Hurriedly, she turned around and quietly went back.

Never disturb Mr. and Mrs. White!

With the bedroom door closed, the pleasant sounds were covered up.

In the evening, Lyra finally received an phone call from Keith.

When the call was answered, Lyra did not initiate the conversation.

There was silence on the other end for a few seconds before she could hear his sound, "Rara, I'm sorry. I was wrong."

Keith's voice sounded slightly weak because he hadn't eaten all day and night.

Lyra's tone rose, "You really have figured it out?"

Keith sounded very sincere, "I was impulsive. When the engagement was announced in public, it was a done deal. Even if I give 20% shares of the group to him, I'm afraid it's still difficult to let Shane agree." Lyra breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good to figure it out, so do you have any ideas after reflecting on it all day and night?"

"First replace a way to meet Melissa and replace out why she admitted her engagement in public. If she really has changed her heart, I won't bother anymore. And if it's true that Shane did something to her, I'll risk everything to take her away."

Lyra sighed. His ideas were not completely right, and the latter one was too impulsive.

"She is now the Callahan family's daughter. If you rashly take her away, are you going to elope? Shane will call police."

What was more, Shane himself was a sort of police officer and it wouldn't take too much time to catch him.

Keith stopped talking.

It was really hard for him to not to lose his sanity when it came to Melissa.

If Shane really did something to Melissa and hurt her, he would go crazy and try to shoot Shane in the head.

Both went quiet at the same time, and both seemed to be in deep thought.

After a minute, Lyra took the lead and said, "It's not good to discuss it on the phone. I'll get the soldiers withdraw. You can come here and we'll discuss it later."

"Great."

Half an hour later, Keith quickly arrived and knocked on the door.

Chad and Keira came along, and all five sat on the couch and helped discuss solutions.

But the living room fell into a long silence after they sat down. Everyone's expression was grim, and no one spoke first.

No one knew how long it took before Keira broke the peace.

"Lyra, it is really not easy to solve. Anyway, Melissa is now the Callahan family's daughter. Even if she is imprisoned and coerced by Shane, as long as he explains properly, we can hardly have a proper reason to get involved in the Callahan family's affairs and take away Melissa. And even let Melissa back out of the marriage contract with the Barker family."

Chad also said, "Now Shane uses the excuse that Melissa is sick. She doesn't even out of the door. All her jobs are stopped. I guess it is very difficult to see her."

After these words, the living room fell into a deathly silence again.

Malcolm said, "Shane is my subordinate. For his family business, it's not convenient to get involved. But if I can replace a suitable excuse, I can let Chad lead a team of men to search the Callahan Residence and take an opportunity to meet Melissa."

With the identity of director of the National Investigation Bureau, things did work out much better.

Lyra: "If we look for excuses to break in, it will inevitably get into difficulties with Shane. So this is the last solution to consider. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the Callahan Residence first to try a mild approach first. If carrot doesn't work, we'll try stick."

Everyone nodded their heads and agreed with the decision.

Thinking about it, Lyra continued, "Besides, for the engagement, Mel and I probed today. We guess Shane won't let go, not to mention the withdrawal. The huge cash gift that was given to the Callahan family by Barker family will have to be sent back intact. Shane values interest most. It's simply impossible to let him be willing to take it out of his pocket."

Keira stared at Lyra with adoration, "From what you said, is there an idea already?"

Lyra pursed her lips and smiled, "Since it's hard to start with Shane, we'll start with Ashton Barker first!"

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Malcolm wrapped his arms around Lyra's slender waist and praised her, "You're so smart."

The other three had become inured to their affectionate behavior.

Keira asked again, "But Ashton Barker won't agree to back out so easily if he can spend so much money to get engaged to Melissa?"

Lyra's expression gradually became serious, "The Barker family is doing extremely well in catering business. Perhaps we can start with that. I remember a person has the most stock equity in various companies in the catering industry."

Keith, who hadn't said anything, immediately understood.

Lyra was talking about Collin.

Collin resigned from his position at the Bureau of National Affairs and also suspended from his aviation duties, but he still held the largest stakes of the domestic and international companies.

Lyra turned her head to Keith, "Perhaps, you can talk to him about it and ask for his help."

Keith nodded, "Okay, I got it."

Lyra looked at the clock on the wall. It was late.

"Let's end this for today. As for the rest, we will wait until we can know Melissa's situation."

Chad knew how to behave and dragged Keira up, "Bro, Lyra, Keira and I will go back first."

Lyra and Malcolm nodded their heads at the same time in silent agreement.

Keith was sitting in place, not moving and with no intention of leaving.

"Keith, it's late at night." Lyra reminded him.

Keith covered his stomach, took a deep breath, and looked at Malcolm as if asking for help. He said with soft voice, "My dear brother-in-law, I haven't eaten for a day and a night. I'm starving to death. Can you help me cook some midnight snacks and let me be full before I leave?"

Lyra was speechless.

Malcolm stifled a laugh, "Okay, it's rare that you can figure it out so quickly. I'll go make some nice dishes and have a couple of beer together tonight."

Keith swallowed and let out a long breath, "That's great."

Chad and Keira, who had just walked to the door, were excellent to hear that and noticed the words "midnight snacks".

The two cheekily turned back.

Chad giggled, "Bro, I'm also hungry. Anyway, just prepare for our share. I think you must not mind it. And I can also accompany you to drink beer!"

Keira, on the other hand, went to cling to Lyra's arm to fawn her.

"Lyra, Mr. Malcolm can cook really well. I haven't tasted the dishes made by him for a long time, so can you let us stay and satisfy our cravings. We can take care the little babies in the meantime."

It was easy to invite them but hard to send them away?

Malcolm, who had been in high spirits, was staring at Keira as she clung to Lyra's arm. He lowered his head and looked extraordinarily cold.

"You can eat here but don't take advantage of my wife!"
