Chapter 459 Inviting is easy, but sending away is hard
Lyra raised an eyebrow and sounded yful, "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 find a way to meet Melissa and find 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 notpletely right, and thetter one was too impulsive.
"She is now the Cahan 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 cane here and we''ll discuss itter."
"Great."
Half an hourter, 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 Cahan family''s daughter. Even if she
is imprisoned and coerced by Shane, as long as he exins properly, we can hardly have a proper
reason to get involved in the Cahan 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 find a suitable excuse, I can let Chad lead a team of men to search the Cahan 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
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 Cahan
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 be 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
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 thergest stakes of the domestic and internationalpanies.
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 waste.
"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 ce, not moving and with no intention of leaving.
"Keith, it''ste 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-inw, 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 augh, "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 apany 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!"
