After divorce I am a billionaire

Chapter 408 Divorce and family rules

Claudia cried by her yelling and was afraid to look at the man in the bed.

But Lyra was pulling her hair, and she couldn't escape.

The sharp pain in her knees and scalp stimulated her nerves and she screamed. She was on the verge

of tearing down her defenses.

"I'm not wrong! I was just trying to protect myself. It's all your fault Lyra. You caused this!"

"Reginald deserved what he got! I wouldn't be at Ethel's mercy if he hadn't insisted on giving you the

inheritance and pushing me to the impasse!"

She and Lyra had never gotten along. And Lyra had said before that once she took the inheritance,

Claudia would be thrown out of the Lloyd Manor and she would never live well.

Claudia had been pampered in the Lloyd Manor for so many years. If she was kicked out, it was

equivalent to sentence her to death. She had no ability to survive alone and she was not going to

survive!

But it would be different if Ethel took the inheritance and she could still be Mrs. Lloyd in the future.

She was not wrong. She was just making a living for herself!

Lyra was slightly shocked, not expecting her to be unrepentant at all.

Being enraged, Lyra slapped her hard in the face and forced her to look at Reginald.

"What did my dad do wrong? You're greedy for riches and framed him to sleep with you! You were the

one who forced my dad to be responsible for you! Over all these years, has he ever done anything

wrong to you?"

"He told me that after his death, he wants me to vacate a mansion for you to live in and transfer 5% of

the shares of the Lloyd Group to you, so that you can have the dividends and continue to live a free life.

He also said that if you want to remarry, I will not stop you!"

"And you? Is that how you repay him?"

Claudia's eyes were dilated in shock as she stared blankly at her unconscious husband on the bed.

"How is it possible! He ... actually helped me think of a way out already?"

Lyra looked at her sarcastically, "Claudia, you know very well my character. I'll seek revenge for the

smallest grievance! Although I have quarreled with you over the years, I have never done any

substantial harm to you, just because my dad cares about you!" Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

"I ..."

Claudia's whole body was shaking and she couldn't say a word.

She never loved Reginald. When she married him, her purpose was to enjoy the glory and wealth of

the rich family. She thought Reginald was the same and only regarded her as a young, new and

interesting accompany.

However, Reginald actually loved her, and arranged everything for her in advance. He wanted her to

live the rest of her life comfortably!

She let out a loud cry. The guilt had almost drowned her whole being.

Lyra stared at her icily, and her tone was light, "You are really stupid and bad. My dad is the only

person in the Lloyd family who can protect you. You harmed my dad and know so many secrets of

Ethel. With Ethel's character, she will find a way to get you killed after things have come to a close!"

"I am at least her half-blooded sister but she can even kill me many times. It can be seen that she is

ruthless to the extreme!"

"You have nothing to do with her, so what makes you believe she'll actually bail you out?"

Claudia's breathing stalled, and even her crying stopped. Suddenly it dawned on her.

She was wrong and so wrong!

She turned her head, grabbed Lyra's dress, and sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry Lyra. I was wrong! I

really realized my stupidity! Can you give me one more chance?"

Lyra kicked her away and looked down at her from above. Her eyes looked so cold.

"If I give you a chance, can you wake up my dad? He's a lifelong vegetable because of you, and he

never has a chance, so who are you to beg for my forgiveness?"

Claudia was questioned by her and could not say a word. She was so regretful and cried desperately.

Lyra's face looked indifferent, "Claudia, you destroy the rest of your comfortable life with your own

hands! Save all your strength in prison and spend the rest of your life there!"

After finishing her words sarcastically, she sent a message to Chad who was outside the villa.

Chad soon came in with Fifteen and took Claudia away, who was still in grief and crying uncontrollably.

"Lyra, what are you going to do with this woman?" asked Chad.

Lyra looked over at Reginald, who was motionless on the bed, and sighed softly, "I want her to go to

prison for the rest of her life for intentional murder! I never want to see her again! And, before you send

her in, make her sign the divorce paper."

"Yes."

Claudia was taken away by Chad and Fifteen.

Lyra breathed deeply. After taking just two steps forward, she felt dizzy and his whole body fell to the

side uncontrollably.

But she fell into a warm and familiar embrace.

Malcolm was distraught, "Rara, your progesterone is already too high. The doctor said you should not

be too emotional. Even for the sake of the babies, you should control your emotions."

Lyra nodded weakly. She was too tired to talk.

Malcolm carried her up and held her in the crook of his arms to figure out how to do with the rest, "It is

almost done with these things. why don't you let me help you deal with Ethel?"

Lyra shook her head, "She's the culprit of the whole thing. I'll do it myself."

"So how about I hold you, and you just ask Chad to do whatever torture you want?"

"Okay."

Chad was a good fighter, which was accurate and vicious. Of course, they had to make good use of it.

Malcolm kissed her forehead tenderly and carried her all the way downstairs.

By Keith's order, Ethel had been pressed to kneel in the first floor's hall, while Micah and Keith were

sitting quietly on the sofas on either side of the hall, not saying a word. The atmosphere was stagnant.

Without looking away, Malcolm walked over with Lyra who was in his arms and sat down on the middle

couch, letting Lyra sit on his lap.

Lyra played with his tie and opened her mouth to speak to Ethel.

"Now that I know all the truth. What else do you have to say?"

Ethel, although kneeling, her back was still straight. And she was smiling calmly.

"A loss is a loss. I have nothing to say. Just do whatever you want."

Lyra smiled as well and her tone sounded cruel, "Great, I have your words. Since you are recognized

as the daughter of the Lloyd family, we will do it by family rules."

Malcolm understood what she meant and immediately winked at Chad.

Chad turned to the garden and returned with a few thicker and tougher branches from the trees.

Lyra spoke coldly, "Lash her for 50 times first, and then start questioning her afterwards."

"Yes."

Chad put the branches in his hand on the coffee table, picked one at random, walked right up and

started lashing.

The horrifying sound rang out uninterruptedly.

It made the originally quiet hall a bit eerie.

Chad's every lashing was used with the same force, which was vicious.

When the branch broke, he replaced it with a new one and continued without interruption.

Ethel was wearing a backless dress tonight. And her skin was delicate, so she was in severe pain

every time she was lashed.

At first she was able to hold her back straight, but later she succumbed to it and lay on the floor in

uncontrollable pain.

Lyra watched it from afar. Ethel did not wail and beg for mercy.

"Chad, I don't hear her crying? Are you soft-hearted?" said Lyra.
