A Divorce Make Me Rich

Lyra strode over to Magotan, pulled open the door, and gestured for Kellie to get in as well.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

She sped all the way to the shooting site. Kellie anxiously sat in the passenger seat and suddenly felt ashamed: “Sorry director, I do not know how to drive, and you have to take me. If I could, I could have been your driver.”

“I thought you were going to say something. What’s the big deal. You can learn how to drive later.” Lyra was amused by her words and her mood, which had relaxed her tense emotion.

Kellie wanted to say something else, but thought better of it and kept her mouth shut, looking at Lyra with adoration in her eyes.

Lyra braked sharply outside the shooting site and hurried inside. Kellie followed her quickly, and her face was as serious as hers.

The person in charge was notified in advance and stood outside the door to greet them.

“Director, you’re finally here. These two are making a lot of noise, and we really have no choice.”

The person in charge introduced the situation while walking, “On one side is a new star. On the other side is a rich girl. We can’t afford to offend either one, so we can only invite you here.”

“What are the names of these two players? Who said dropping out of the race?” Lyra asked.

“The little-known actress is Carmen Everett, and the rich girl is the neighbor city’s Samantha Fulton. The two got into a fight over the bed, and both said they are dropping out.”

“Since they are clamoring to leave, we don’t have to force them to stay.”

She sneered, “But there is always a need to punish someone as a warning to others, so that they understand what is meant by rules.”

The two men had arrived in the hall as they spoke, and the two parties were sitting on each side, facing each other on the verge of breaking out a fight.

“Are you two the ones making trouble?” Lyra looked at the two with an unfriendly face, “You can just leave if you don’t want to participate anymore, so don’t give everyone a hard time.”

“Who are you? A mere brokerage director? You dare to give me a cold face?”

Carmen gave her a disgusted look, “I came to your show because I respect Angle Group. If not for Mr. Lloyd’s sake, who would come to this kind of show with no traffic and no buzz?”

“I hope Miss Everett recognizes the reality. With your current fame and status, you don’t deserve to say such things.”

Lyra elegantly sat down in the main seat, continued, “Angle Group can occupy a place in the entertainment industry. A well-known company can bring you, far more than you can imagine. If you don’t want to stay, you can pay enough liquidated damages to let you go immediately.”

“You! What kind of attitude is that? It’s an honor for your Angle Group that I can come to participate. How dare you make a claim on me?!” Carmen was so angry that her face turned red.

Lyra glanced at her, picked up the participant information sheet on the table, and flipped through it casually.

“I have always different attitude towards different people. Since you are attending for Mr. Lloyd, you will lose more face if I let Mr. Lloyd personally come and drive you away, right?”

“Yeah! I’m not done with you! Just wait!”

Carmen finished her words and left.

“What about you?”

Lyra’s gaze went to Samantha Fulton next to her, “To go or to stay?”

“Of course I’m leaving! Who wants to spend months in a reality television competition like this?”

Samantha was not convinced, “Carmen is not only unqualified, but the same goes for the selection staff! I’ll prosecute Angle Group and show you that we, the Fulton family, are not a bunch of losers!”

“Finished?”

Lyra put down the information sheet in her hand, “Pay enough money for breach of contract and go straight away. We don’t need brainless people like you in our program. As for suing Angle Group, you can try. I’ll wait for your summons.”

She stopped looking at Samantha and instructed the person in charge, “What are you still doing? Send the guests away!”

After saying that, ignoring Samantha’s grimace behind her, she elegantly stroked her hair at the temples and walked out quickly.

“Director, have you solved it? The company has a new guest and is waiting for you in the parlor.”

Kellie saw her come out and immediately greeted her, pointing to her phone.

“Who?”

Lyra got into the car and fastened her seat belt.

“The Matthews Group’s Mr. Matthews and his wife, but the other side is vague. And I’m not quite sure what they’re doing here.” Kellie scratched her head.

Lyra nodded and drove back to the Angle Group.

The parlor.

Jamie and Katelyn were waiting anxiously, looking up and out every now and then.

Finally seeing a certain familiar figure, both eyes were glowing.

“Miss Carroll, you’re back at last.” Jamie extended his hand to her, “My wife and I came this time to say thank you.”

“Yes, yes, thanks to you, Micah. We were able to get Abigail out of the vegetative state and wake her up again, and to uncover that bitch Charlotte’s plot.”said Katelyn.

Lyra smiled slightly: “You two do not have to be so polite. We just take what we need. Miss Matthews can wake up, and it will also be of great help to me.”

Jamie didn’t expect her to speak so elegantly without taking credit for anything, so he couldn’t help but look up to her twice.

Lyra asked again, “How is she doing now?”

“She just woke up, and all her body functions still need time to recover, but it’s already much better than before.” Katelyn excitedly held Lyra’s hand.

“That’s good. Don’t worry. I will have Mr. Micah follow up Miss Matthews’ treatment process all the time so that he can develop the most appropriate plan until Miss Matthews fully recovers.”

Getting this promise from her, Jamie and Katelyn looked at each other.

Even Jamie, who had been in the business world for many years, can’t help but be overjoyed at this moment.

“Thank you very much Miss Carroll. You are the Matthews family’s benefactor. We are very grateful for that. In addition, we are here today because we would like to discuss with Miss Carroll about the cooperation.

“Cooperation?”

Lyra was slightly surprised, not expecting Jamie to be so generous, “Please be specific.”

“I would like to provide Angle Group with a stable investment, and I will invest fifty percent of the funds for every project that Miss Carroll handles in the future. I am not in a hurry to get an immediate answer, so take your time to think it over.”

“No need to think about it. We can sign the contract right now.”

Lyra agreed to the proposal on the spot.

In the field of interest, there was no permanent partner nor permanent enemy. Now that Jamie took the initiative to make the offer, she naturally had no reason to refuse.

Jamie had prepared for this and pulled out a drafted contract from his briefcase and handed it to her.

“Miss Carroll, you can just sign on if you think it’s fine after reading it.”

Lyra looked carefully at the terms and conditions, signed it with alacrity and extended her hand to him, “Thank you Mr. Matthews. It is a pleasure to work with you.”

“Good.” Jamie took the contract and left with Katelyn, satisfied.

But those things interrupted Lyra’s original plan in quick succession, and she planed to wait until she’d finished with the company’s daily business before heading to the Freeman Manor.

On the way, she drove the car as fast as she could before something else came up to disturb her.

In the Freeman Manor.

Fiona was walking around the house with anxiety, holding her phone.

“What is going on with Melvin? He doesn’t usually turn off the phone. Why has he been done this? I can’t also contact Fred. I’m really anxious…”

The phone rang in her hand and she immediately answered it, asking eagerly, “How is it? Any news?”

“Sorry ma’am, still haven’t heard anything from Mr. Freeman. He hasn’t been back to the office for a few days, so …”

“You’re useless! Check it out right now! If you can’t find my son, you will be fired!”

Fiona angrily hung up the phone, so angry that she threw the phone straight into the yard.

A snap sound.

Lyra, who was walking unimpeded to the courtyard, gave an abrupt lurch in her high heels and picked up the phone that had fallen to her feet.
