Chapter 567 Micah''s embarrassment


    Kathleen lowered her eyes, seemingly being deep in thought about what Anne had said.


    "I''m afraid this is not good. Miss Windsor, you''re not the Lloyd after all. If you''re involved in the Lloyd


    family matters, it is too easy to cause suspicion. It''s not good for your reputation."


    She sighed and patted the back of Anne''s hand very gently.


    "Although my words are unpleasant and a bit insulting, they are true. I hope Miss Windsor will not take


    it personally."


    Anne smiled, "I never care about the outside world''s vision, but I treat Mr. Collin and you as rtives.


    When it''s over, let Mr. Collin ept me as his righteous sister. Can''t we solve this problem?"


    Kathleen froze, thought carefully about the meaning of her words, and lowered her head to hide the


    emotions in her eyes.


    "How are you thinking about it?"


    Instead of giving a direct answer, Kathleen asked, "Aren''t you a friend of Lyra? Why would you want to


    empty her real power in the Lloyd''s Corp?"


    Anne did not cover up and her answer was very frank, "I am not afraid to tell you the truth, madam.


    We''re just ordinary friends, but I am the AN Group''s business director. The Lloyd''s Corp is considered


    as apetitor. Ms. Lloyd is not willing to deal with the cooperation of the two groups, then I have to


    think of another way. "


    Kathleen nodded thoughtfully.


    "So that''s it. Your offer, if it''s true, I''ll talk to Collin."


    Her words could be a promise.


    Anne did not look very happy, but rather a little suspicious.


    "I heard you like Ms. Lloyd the most. Are you really trying to fix her? Couldn''t ... you be deliberately


    joking at me?"


    Kathleen''s hand, which was wiping tears from her eyes, paused, and she froze slightly.


    Anne snickered. Her face was cute and pretty, "I''m just kidding with you. Don''t be nervous."


    Kathleen elegantly threw away the tissue and restored a calm tone to exin, "Yes, I always like her


    and teat her as my own sister love. Because of the Lloyd family''s illegitimate daughter, she''s anger with


    Collin. I have sought her several times to plead for mercy. She always ignores me. "


    When it came to the sad, Anne hurriedly handed her tissues and helped her to smooth her breath.


    Kathleen sighed, "This time, it''s most unbelievable. It''s been so long since the event, and she really


    disappoints me that she''s abusing Collin like this just because she''s upset."


    When Collin''s punishment was mentioned, Anne also showed that she could not bear that.


    "You help me persuade Mr. Collin as soon as possible. If he agrees, his once glorious influence in


    Crana will all be back in his hands in a few days."


    Kathleen nodded, "Good, this won''t work even if he doesn''t agree. I really don''t want to see him being


    abused by Lyra again."


    At this point, it was considered a done deal.


    Anne went upstairs to her room after a few words of concern and condolence.


    Kathleen looked at her slender and good-looking back gradually disappearing in the stairwell, and her


    expression gradually became serious.


    Anne''s vignce was quite high. They had talked so much but she did not reveal anything rted to


    Ethel. And when came to the reason for the hatred of Lyra, she uses thepetition to disguise.


    She was a very smart woman, whom was not east to deal with.


    An hourter, Kathleen excused herself from the house and went to a safe ce to make a phone call


    to Lyra.


    She reported the afternoon chat with Anne, and the n, word for word to Lyra.


    "Lyra, I don''t think it''s as well resolved as I thought. She''s pretty smart and I basically don''t hear


    anything about Ethel."


    Lyra pondered what Kathleen had just said and analyzed it in an organized manner.


    "How can there be no problem? She has repeatedly stated that she wants to be a rtive of my


    brother and you. With this, I am suspicious of her identity."


    Kathleen was silent, and when she put it that way, it seemed to make some sense.


    Lyra, who was on the other end of the phone continued, "Since she offered to coborate to fix me, just


    do as she says. Kathleen, help me persuade Collin to agree as soon as possible."


    "Okay, don''t worry."


    "Also, if you''re free, find a way to get a few of Anne''s hairs for me. Although her parents are gone, half-


    sisters can also do the kinship test."


    No matter how much Anne wanted to argue, once the DNA test results came out, it was the truth and


    she can''t deny it.


    "Great, don''t worry."


    Lyra was on her way back to the Lloyd''s Corp when the two hung up the phone.


    Anne was finally going to make her move. She was worried that Anne would continue to hold back, but


    it seemed to be an overestimation.


    Thinking about going for a DNA test, she sent a message to Micah asking him how things were going


    with her future sister-inw and toe back to Suham sometime to help her out a little.


    In order to do the identification of kinship, she needed to find arge and authoritative hospital.


    But with her previous experience of being wrongly used of being an illegitimate child, she didn''t trust


    any hospital but Micah.

    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Matton Corp in Frayton.


    Abigail was in the conference room having a regr meeting, and Micah, as the president''s secretary,


    was standing behind her in a disciplined manner and waiting to be at her beck and call.


    The major shareholders present here were all bigwigs in Frayton.


    Many people had met Micah, and some, even if they hadn''t seen him in person, had seen his photos


    because he had a very huge influence in the medical field.


    Although Micah was a secretary here, no one dared to order him to let him pour a cup of tea, make a


    cup of coffee or whatever.


    Even because he, the second son of the richest family in Suham, was present, all the shareholders in


    the conference room sat upright for fear of saying the wrong thing.


    Micah was unaware that his presence had put so much pressure on the others in the meeting room,


    and he followed the rules and wrote down the minutes of the key guidelines in his book, as Abigail had


    asked him to do.


    Ding Ding~


    It was his cell phone''s message tone.


    Micah was writing and stopped as he sensed keenly that it was the cell phone in his pocket.


    He didn''t have much experience in attending meetings. Before he came in, he forgot to turn on the


    mute.


    A short message beep sound didn''t make any big waves, and everyone pretended they didn''t hear it,


    including Abigail, who was listening to the debriefing.


    Until ...


    Ding Ding~


    Ding Ding~


    The sound continued to ring for five or six times.


    It was really hard not to notice that even a shareholder who was reporting on the situation stopped


    speaking.


    Micah''s back stiffened.


    He clearly felt the stares from everyone in the room. He lowered his head, held back his internal


    embarrassment and peeked at Abigail''s face.


    But he saw Abigail who was serious and looked at him.


    "Mr. Lloyd, please turn your phone on mute." Abigail reminded patiently and calmly.


    "Okay."


    He took out the phone in his pocket, did not even read the message, and directly chose to turn off the


    phone,pletely forgetting this aftermath.


    For this small incident, because of his special status, no one of the conference room said a word


    against it, and they seemed to forget about it very quickly.


    But after the meeting, Abigail''s sullen face signaled that she was holding her anger.
