Chapter 377 Unexpected News

In the next half an hour, they bombarded Lyra with questions, from her family background to her academic career. However, apart from her parents who were not alive, Lyra was good at everything. When she heard that she, a woman, was actually running an investment company, Old Lady Forrest looked at her with eyes that could hardly hide her appreciation. She even asked in front of Xuanze, "Miss Jones, your condition is so good, why did you choose him? He has a five-year-old child." The patience between Xuanze's eyebrows was almost worn out. "It's too rude of you to ask this." Lyra gave him a reassuring look, then smiled at Old Lady Forrest and said, "My conditions are not so good. After all, I am a divorced woman." She spoke about this matter so calmly and looked calm. Xuanze clenched his fists. Ni'er also felt that the atmosphere was very awkward and hid beside Lyra. "So you are divorced. No wonder, then the two of you are really a good match. Like I said, if she was a miss of a rich family, how could she like him?" Their attitude towards Lyra changed in an instant. Moreover, their eyes were filled with disdain and disgust. They were completely different from when they exchanged business cards with Lyra just now. "Don't go too far." Xuanze's face darkened. "What's wrong? She said it herself. That's right. She clearly knows that she has shortcomings. Otherwise, she wouldn't be with a widower like you who has a child." The more they said, the more cunning they became. Ni'er shrank back and buried her head behind Lyra's arm. "Be good, Ni'er. Don't be afraid. Go back to your room and play with the building blocks for a while. I'll go up to you in a while, okay?" Ni'er thought about it for a long time before slowly nodding her head. "Auntie Jones, don't go," she said as she pulled on Lyra's sleeve tightly. "Okay, I won't go." omforted the child and handed Ni'er to the nanny.

Seeing the child walk up the stairs, the coldness on Xuanze's face became stronger. After Ni'er went upstairs, his first reaction was to take Lyra away. "So much for today."

He really did not want these people to run amok in his house. "It doesn't matter." Lyra shook her head. Xuanze's heart tightened. "But..." "I am a divorced woman. You do have a child with you. There is nothing to hide." At that moment, Xuanze understood what Lyra had not said. In any case, this was just a show.

What did it matter if it were true or not? To her, the accusations and discussions of these strangers were nothing at all. A hint of regret flashed through Xuanze's usually deep eyes.

Unfortunately, it was just a show.

Lyra turned around and looked at those people. "Everyone, do you still have any questions?"

Her natural and unrestrained manner revealed the schemes of those people.

None of them spoke. Only Pingru chuckled, "Miss Jones is really broad-minded. I approve of you two, but I still insist on taking Ni'er's custody." "After all, you will have your children in the future. Ni'er would face a dilemma." Every word she said seemed to be considering for Ni'er. Her tone and eyes were also full of kindness. But in fact, it was all her selfish thoughts. Lyra had done an investigation this morning. All the daughters of their families were married for business marriages. Using the relationship to maintain the development of the company was to hurt them in the name of love.

And they said it in such a dignified way. "It's a pity." Lyra frowned slightly. Pingru immediately showed a proud expression, "It will be good for you if I take Ni'er away now."

Xuanze clenched her fists. If not for the fact that they were Ni'er's elders, he would never have endured until now. "I haven't finished my words." The smile in Lyra's eyes deepened. "I had an accident before, and I won't have my own child in the future. So you don't have to worry about this at all."

Everyone was stunned by her words. "How is that possible? Don't lie to me." "If you were me, would you lie about this?" Lyra glanced at the person who said this, and her eyes became colder. The situation changed at that moment. The reason that Pingru and the others had racked their brains to come up with was written off by Lyra. In the end, they could only leave behind a small gift for Ni'er and leave with a gloomy expression. Before leaving, Ni'er's uncle gritted his teeth and said, "I wish you two a long time." "Thank you," Lyra said with a smile. Her lack of timidity left them at a loss, and everything seemed so natural. Even Xuanze was confused for a moment. Were they really just acting? The door closed, and the sound of the car gradually faded away. "How is it? Mr. Evans, was it successful?"

Xuanze seemed to wake up from a dream. He nodded slowly. "Very successful. Thank you very much for today." "It's nothing. Since I have accepted your gift, I naturally have to help you settle the matter. Then I will go up to see Ni'er and leave." Lyra said as she walked up the stairs.

"Miss Jones."

Xuanze called out to her. "What's wrong?" she asked, turning around. "Did you read the news this morning?" the man asked slowly. He wasn't sure if she knew about this, or if she didn't want to talk about it and had deliberately avoided it. "No, I forgot to charge my phone. It has been automatically turned off." "Fortunately, I didn't delay your business," Lyra said with a smile. Xuanze's eyes flashed with a bit of restraint. He took a few steps forward and handed his phone over. "I think you should look at today's news first."

He didn't want to take advantage of her when she was in a difficult situation.

Lyra took his phone and clicked on the main page of the news. She had only read a few lines when her palms turned cold. "How could it be..."

She desperately slid down, but there was still no news of the ship. "At present, the police have already sent out rescue teams, but the search area is too wide, making it too difficult to complete the task." "If there are no signs of survival in the next three hours, I'm afraid the situation is not optimistic." Lyra's heart was beating so hard that it almost jumped out of her chest. She tried to hide her panic, but it was useless. Seeing her trembling and almost falling down, Xuanze went over to support her in time. "Sometimes, no news is the best news. I'll help you charge your phone first. After that, where do you want to go? I'll send you there." Lyra tried hard to calm down. Her voice trembled uncontrollably. "Thank you." The two people who were very important to her were both on that ship. Even the heavens were unwilling to give them a good ending?
