Lyra lowered her eyelids to cover the dark look in her eyes, but her mouth replied in a panic, "I didn't. You've misunderstood me, Ms. Graham. I..."
"You don't have to say it!" Macy interrupted with a sneer. "Lyra Madden, listen closely. We're done. I'll never let you off. Just wait and see!"
Macy hung up the phone right after she spoke.
Lyra looked at the phone screen and pursed her pale lips.
She had already seen the news of the Graham family's incident in the morning and had long prepared for Macy to blame her.
However, she did not expect Macy's hatred for her to be so deep that she threatened not to let Lyra go.
Lyra's palms shook and her heart began to get a little nervous.
Although the Graham family had lost power and influence, they were still government officials, so they could still deal with her or the Madden family. Lyra had to do something about it.
Thinking about this, Lyra bit her lower lip and pinched her arm hard, causing tears to flow immediately. She took her bag out of the room and let the driver drive her to Flint Corporation.
Everyone in Flint Corporation knew her, so no one stopped her.
Lyra went up to the top floor smoothly and pushed open the door of Julien's office.
"Julien..." Lyra walked in with tears in her eyes and choked up as she called Julien.
Julien was talking to Hunter about work when she suddenly entered during an important part, so they had no choice but to stop.
"Hm? What's wrong, Ms. Madden?" Hunter rubbed his chin and looked at Lyra teasingly.
Lyra ignored him and only looked at Julien with tears in her eyes.
Julien put down the documents in his hands and stood up. He frowned and asked, "Lyra, what's wrong?"
Lyra's lips curled and she ran straight at him, throwing herself into his arms.
Julien's arms were suspended in the air for a few seconds before he lowered them and wrapped them around her shoulders. He patted her back gently.
"You go out first," he said to Hunter.
Hunter shrugged and gave a meaningful glance at Lyra in Julien's arms before turning around and going out.
Only Lyra and Julien were left in the office.
Lyra withdrew from his arms and raised her head, saying in grievance, "Julien, Ms. Graham's family is in trouble, and she's blaming everything on me. She said that she won't let me off. I... I didn't tell her to harm Ms. Raines. Why is she blaming me? I don't understand."
"Harm Sydney?" Julien's eyes narrowed. "What happened?"
Lyra was a little angry in her heart.
She told him too much.
However, he only caught those two words!
Although that was what her heart thought, she did not dare to reveal it and simply sobbed. "Yesterday, Ms. Graham came to see me in the hospital. I said that I was kidnapped by Ms. Raines's suitor, and Ms.
Graham said that she’d help me take revenge on Ms. Raines. I tried to stop her but she didn't listen, and now she's blaming me, saying that I harmed her and the Graham family..."
She burst into tears as if suffering from a great grievance.
Julien saw her crying and felt heartbroken. He lifted her head and drew a napkin to wipe her tears." Alright, stop crying."
"Julien, Ms. Graham said she won't let me off. What should I do? I'm so scared." Lyra's eyes were red as she looked at him
Julien's pursed lips were slightly cold. "Don't worry, I won't let her hurt you."
"Okay. I believe you, Julien." Lyra sniffled and leaned on his chest with a dependent look.
However, where he could not see, the corners of her mouth curled up imperceptibly and a dark light of triumph flashed in her eyes.
With his protection, Macy would not be able to do anything to her.
That was because the Flint family was not ordinary businessmen.
"Are you still scared?" Julien's thumb wiped away the last of Lyra's tears from the corner of her eyes.
Lyra shook her head. "I'm not scared anymore. Julien, you're so good to me."
