Chapter 365 The corpse is missing. Who hid it?

    Chapter 365 The corpse is missing. Who hid it?


    Lyra quietly tucked the note back into her pocket and dropped her eyshes in silence.


    On the seat, Princess Cayley was in a poor state of mind. She looked sad and painful, so that the


    unaware would sigh with emotion about her great motherly love. Even if her adopted son died, she was


    still grief-stricken. She was really kind.


    On the contrary, Lyra looked cold. Although she was good-looking, she was malicious. If she really


    killed the princess'' adopted son, she deserved it.


    The uninformed gallery had unanimously favored Princess Cayley''s side.


    "Charles Lance was requested to be repatriated by an international arrest warrant. He was at fault and


    should be handed over by the National Investigation Bureau for criminalw. Defendant Lyra Lloyd


    killed Charles Lance on the day of the wedding. The body was taken away and is still missing. She did


    such a heartless thing. We ask your honor to sentence severely!"


    Lyra was lost in thought when she heard the intiff''s attorney call out her name.


    There was a phrase that caught her attention.


    Anthony''s body was missing?


    How can ...


    She clearly heard Malcolm order someone to take Anthony''s body back to Crana to the Cahan


    family.


    Could it be that the Cahan family also hated her and conspired with Princess Cayley to deliberately


    hide Anthony''s body in order to bring her down?


    Her mind was a mess.


    "Your Honor, in response to the intiff''sint, our defendant, who is a party, has something to


    say."


    Mr. Carter raised his hand to speak, and then looked to Lyra, "Miss Lyra, don''t be afraid. What


    happened to you on your wedding day at Florence Cathedral?"


    The Lloyd family had it all nned out with their team ofwyers.


    By the time Lyra finished vocally based on the note given, they would present Chad''s injury


    assessment to the judge along with a host of evidence.


    At this point, all eyes were on Lyra, who had her head down, as if she was still thinking about


    something.


    "Miss Lyra! It''s your turn to speak!"


    Mr. Carter shouted at her again, hurriedly pulling her mind back and reminding her with his eyes, "Don''t


    be afraid. Don''t worry. The judge is fair and just!"


    Lyra gave him a look, understanding the meaning in his eyes.


    He was talking about putting all the me on Anthony and letting him take the me for everything ...


    Anyway, Anthony was dead. These were just for the living, and when it was over, it won''t have any


    impact on anyone''s life.


    But ...


    With Anthony, Lyra couldn''t do that.


    Although she did not love him, she used to respect and worship him, not to mention that Anthony never


    hurt her.


    As far as she was concerned, Anthony did not owe her anything.


    No one was born to know how to love, but he just had a different way of doing it.


    "Miss Lyra!"


    Mr. Carter called out to her for the third time.


    Lyra returned to her senses and subconsciously turned her head to look at Micah and Keith who were


    in the gallery.


    With firm eyes, two brothers nodded to her, raising their eyebrows to indicate that she should proceed


    with confidence ording to the n.


    Lyra sighed silently and finally spoke up.


    She looked to Princess Cayley who was at the intiff''s table and asked calmly, "Your Highness


    Princess Cayley, do you know what Anthony likes to eat? What does he hate the most? What is his


    greatest wish?"


    "What do you mean?"


    Not only Princess Cayley, but the whole audience was confused.


    All thewyers on the defendant''s side stared at her in disbelief, and Carter was so angry that he broke


    a pen.


    Lyra Lloyd was so unconventional!


    If he lost the case, what about his bonus! What about his name as Crana''s number one goldwyer!


    Lyra ignored the defendant''s table next to her who kept winking at her.


    She continued, "You don''t know. For more than twenty years, although you feel indebted to him, you


    never care what he really wants. You just force what you feel is good for him, to reduce your guilt."


    Princess Cayley was slightly stunned and a little ufortable by her count, so she red at her


    fiercely.


    "I was unaware. I could have taken my time to get to know him, but because of you, I lost him forever!"


    Lyra lowered her long eyshes. Her thoughts were not carried over, "But I know all this. When I was a


    child, I loved to stay at the Cahan Mansion. I was a little girl who always followed him. He''s a very


    dedicated person. Once he has made up his mind, he wouldn''t change it."


    "His favorite fruits are cantaloupe and watermelon. He says he feels life is bitter and sour, so he likes to


    eat sweets."


    "He doesn''t like goose liver and animals'' intestines. He says that no matter how well the chef does it,


    he can''t ept the fishy taste of the two foods themselves."


    "The woman he loves most is me, and his lifelong quest is to be able to marry me."


    "But these are two things that I could never give him in my life. On his wedding day, he finally chose to


    fulfill my wish. And what you are doing now is trying to destroy everything that he once loved so much."


    After these words, Princess Cayley froze.


    She saw Lyra distantly and her tears suddenly poured down her face.


    Anthony''s obsession with Lyra Lloyd was known to her.


    On the day of the wedding, he did not hesitate to take the bullet for Lyra Lloyd but looked at her with


    anger for the first time, "If you kill her, you''re killing me!"


    Even if she would win the case today and take down Lyra Lloyd, Anthony would still hate her if he


    knew, right?


    With this in mind, Princess Cayley had a fleeting thought of dropping the case.


    Seeing the guilt on Princess Cayley''s face, thewyers all sighed with relief that Lyra''s method was not


    bad, and that they might be able to keep their bonus.


    However, Princess Cayley was torn in her mind, and without waiting for her to speak, herwyer


    suddenly leaned close to her ear and whispered a couple of words.


    Princess Cayley''s eyes dted in disbelief, and the expression on her face had more monstrous hatred


    when she looked at Lyra.


    "Lyra Lloyd, you are shameless! Using the emotion to take advantage of me while having someone


    threaten me! Bravo! Good for you!"


    She gritted her teeth and mmed the table.


    The intiff''s attorney immediately raised his hand to indicate, "Your Honor, our intiff is out of control


    and requests a recess."


    "Agreed."


    With the judge''s approval, Princess Cayley left soon.


    Lyra followed her brothers and went back to her lounge together.


    At Princess Cayley''s final outburst, Lyra wondered, "What did you do?"


    Keith exined, "Melissa found out Princess Cayley and her father''s sweet photo back in in Europe


    Swye. Beside the photo, we also have other evidence to confirm that Anthony is not her adopted son,


    but illegitimate son. "


    "It''s been told to herwyers over there. If Princess Cayley insists on ruling, we don''t mind exposing the


    royal scandal and believe that Princess Cayley will simply drop the case during the recess after


    weighing the pros and cons."


    Lyra did not speak. She lowered her head but did not let down her guard.


    With Princess Cayley''s tough temperament for many years, would she reallypromise meekly when


    threatened by someone?


    But more than that, she was worried about Melissa.


    "Melissa sent the photo herself? Where is she?"


    Keith thought for a moment, "She just said she went to the bathroom and will be back to the lounge to


    meet us in a few minutes."


    ...


    In another lounge, Princess Cayley was throwing a fit, cranky and mming things.


    Harrod, who was afraid that she would smash the public property, let someone hide the vases and


    teacups in the room and take some sofa pillow for her to throw.


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Princess Cayley took the pillow and tore it wildly with feathers flying all over the room.


    Harrod held his forehead.


    Anyway, he needed to pay for the pillow. He underestimated the destructive power of Cayley Lance!
