Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!
Chapter 63 Brandon Madden’s Fury

Half an hour later, Brandon returned to the Madden residence.

As the butler greeted him, Brandon handed over his coat. "Where's the Madam and the Young Miss?"

"They're in the room." The butler draped the coat over his arm and replied.

Brandon hummed in acknowledgment and walked upstairs.

In the room upstairs, Mrs. Madden and Lyra were sitting at the end of the bed, looking at the photo albums together.

Lyra pointed to a photo of herself. "Mom, do you still remember this photo?"

Mrs. Madden stroked Lyra's long hair lovingly. "Of course I do. It was taken when you were six years old. I still remember you played hide-and-seek that year, and I couldn't replace you anywhere. I was so scared that I thought you went missing, but you fell asleep hiding in the attic.

"I know. I woke up and came down from the attic myself, only to replace you crying. You even called the police." Lyra reminisced.

The smile on Mrs. Madden faded a little, and her eyes flashed with hatred.

It was only natural for her to cry and call the police if she lost her child. Moreover, she thought that Harry Raines had kidnapped her youngest daughter.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.

Lyra turned to the next page, and suddenly, a yellowed photo from the album floated to the ground.

She bent down to pick it up. It was a photo of a baby about a few months old who had a gummy grin and was so cute that it could make people like her at first glance.

However, for some reason, Lyra did not like her at all. On the contrary, she resented the baby in the photo and even hated her.

Nevertheless, she did not express it and showed the photo to Mrs. Madden, asking with a smile, "Mom, is this my older sister?" Mrs. Madden touched the photo of her eldest daughter and nodded with her eyes wet. "Yes. She's your sister, Clarice." Seeing Mrs. Madden's love for that baby girl, Lyra could not help but feel jealous.

She took the photo back and put it back in the album.

Then, she held Mrs. Madden's hand and leaned her head on the woman's shoulder. Like a spoiled child, she said, "Okay, Mom. You get sad every time we mention my sister, so let's not mention her anymore. believe she wouldn't want to see you unhappy either."

How dare a dead person rob her mother's attention away from her?

It was unacceptable!

"Okay, we won't mention her." Mrs. Madden did not know Lyra's motive and thought that her youngest daughter was truly concerned about her. She smiled dotingly at Lyra.

At that moment, the door opened, and Brandon walked in with a dark expression.

Having noticed him first, Lyra let go of Mrs. Madden's hands and waved at him. "Dad."

However, Brandon simply glanced at her and then ignored her.

Lyra's expression stiffened for a moment. Then, she bit her lip, upset. "Dad, did I do something wrong?"

"Exactly, honey." Mrs. Madden looked at her husband with dissatisfaction. "Why are you looking at your child like that? She didn't do anything to provoke you."

"Who says she didn't? Go ahead. Ask her what she did!" Brandon pointed at Lyra.

Mrs. Madden immediately turned to Lyra.

Lyra also looked confused.

When Brandon realized that she did not know what was going on, he stopped beating around the bush and said with a cold face, "I know about your plot to harm Sydney Raines at the resort." Lyra's eyes flickered with guilt. "How did you replace out?"

"How did I replace out?" Brandon snorted. "She has posted the land deed on the Internet as a slap to my face. How could I not replace out? Not only did you scheme against that woman, but you also failed and allowed her to get a hold of you instead. Now, even that piece of land has been given to her as compensation. You..."

He was too angry to continue speaking.

Lyra lowered her head, knowing that she was in the wrong.

Mrs. Madden hugged her in distress and complained to her husband. "Enough already. It's just a piece of land. Why are you so fierce to the child?"

It was just a piece of land?

Brandon trembled with anger at his wife's words. "Do you know how important that piece of land is to us? We had invested our money and were waiting for Julien to give us the land deed so that we could start construction. Now that the land is gone, all the projects have to be stopped. We can't afford this loss!"

Trison Corporation had been gradually going downhill over the past few years, which was why he wanted to develop the first villa neighborhood and restore Trison to its peak.

However, everything was now in vain.

Lyra did not know anything about the business market and did not think it was a big problem. She stood up and said calmly, "Julien said he would give you a piece of land in the north."

Brandon almost fainted. "What can that land in the north of the city do? It's in the middle of nowhere.

Who will buy a villa even if I construct a neighborhood there? If I can't sell them, I'll still lose money!" Was it that serious?

Lyra finally panicked a little. "Dad..."

"Don't call me dad." Brandon was so angry that he did not think before he said, "You tried to target someone several times but ended up getting caught and forced into paying compensation. This time, you even pushed Trison and our family to the edge of a cliff. How could you be so stupid? Sure enough, you're not my-"

"Brandon!" Mrs. Madden's face changed as she quickly interrupted him.

Brandon realized that he almost said something wrong and shut his mouth in time. After a while, he spoke again, "In any case, make sure you win over Julien during this period of time. I'll deal with Sydney. You're not allowed to do anything to her, lest she turns your plans against you again. Do you hear me?"

Lyra lowered her eyelids. "Yes."

Brandon flung his hand and left, saying nothing more.

After he left, Lyra took Mrs. Madden's hand. "Mom, what did dad mean earlier? I'm not his what?"

There was a voice in her heart telling her that she must clarify that.

Otherwise, the consequences would be too much for her to bear.

Mrs. Madden's eyes flashed, but she quickly composed her expression and straightened Lyra's hair with a smile. "It's nothing. Your father was just saying nonsense. Don't worry about it. Well, you should rest first. Aren't you going out for dinner with Julien later? I'll go and coax your dad."

Then, she left as well.

Lyra looked at the door, her eyes dim.

If her mother was not going to tell her, she would replace out by herself. After all, she had her methods.

As for Sydney, she had failed to kill the woman last time and even let her get away with it. However, she would not be so lucky next time!

In Skylight Corporation, Sydney and Luke had just come out of the conference room after a meeting when Sophie stepped in front of the two.

She first stole a glance at Luke and hid the emotion in her eyes before reporting to Sydney with a straight face, "President Raines, Trison Corporation called and said that President Madden wants to see you." "Brandon Madden wants to see me?" Sydney raised herbrows.

"Yes, he's already on his way here."

Luke sneered. "Darling, he's not even giving you the chance to refuse. By the way, did he say why he wanted to see my darling?"

"No." Sophie shook her head as she replied. Her tone was slightly gentler than when she was talking to Sydney.

However, neither of them caught the difference.

Sydney nodded. "In that case, I'll meet him. Sophie, go brew some tea."

"Yes." Sophie nodded.

Sydney and Luke walked toward the office.

Along the way, Luke stroked his chin and guessed, "Is Brandon coming here because of that piece of land?"

"It should be. I don't think there's any other reason besides this." Sydney pushed open the office door.

Luke stayed a step behind and closed the door. "I think he probably wants the land back."

Sydney chuckled and was just about to answer when Sophie pushed the door open a crack and poked her head in. "President Baines and President Chase, President Madden is here."
