The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin)

Chapter 592 Things have come to a close; the Lloyd family siblings send her off

Until Lyra left a long time, Collin was still sitting frozen in place, with his mind frantically analyzing the

incident.

Ethel's statement said that their mother was sick because she discovered the adultery between their

father and his lover.

But, by that time, Collin was not young.

He remembered very well that he was around when their mother fell ill with cancer, and there was no

way it was caused by anger.

Moreover, their mother had already known about Ethel and her mother's existence the year Ethel was

born.

She knew her husband well enough that he was a playboy, and simply couldn't stop him.

And their mother was a career-minded woman. Divorce and property division will lead to a lot of

problems. So she simply did not care about her husband but had been pretending not to know and

respected each other as a guest.

How could Ethel have done such a thing when she was so young?

Collin thought about it and came to a conclusion.

She was deliberate. With the pretext of using their mother's death, she tricked Lyra to the villa and

wanted to die with Lyra. Knowing that it was impossible to get Lyra killed and would reveal her

intentions, she still shot.

Did she return Collin's favor and help resolve the rift between Lyra and him?

It was because of the guilt of watching him being abused too much by Lyra some time ago?

Perhaps the only way to get the right answer was to meet Ethel in person.

But Lyra would not let him see Ethel in private, and if Lyra knew it, it was going to harm their kinship

again.

Collin's mind was in turmoil, hesitating whether to tell Lyra what he knew.

He was anxious and worried when Kathleen walked in and sat down next to him.

"Just now Lyra left. She didn't look very good. What did you say to upset her?"

Collin shook his head, fought the dryness in his throat, and said, "I was going to ask what exactly Ethel

had told her on the island. I wanted to share with her some of the things Mom had left behind. She

thought I was going to plead for Ethel and was pissed off."

"Huh?"

Kathleen was stunned, "Then why didn't you explain to her? Lyra was already very sensitive about you

helping Ethel, so it would have been a big misunderstanding!"

Collin coughed so hard that his face turned wan.

It was not that he didn't want to explain. It was that Lyra had already decided that he simply had no

time to speak, and he was deep in thoughts by Lyra showing him the Ethel's deposition.

Kathleen kept sighing, "Your relation with your little sister finally has eased up. Since the day you took a

bullet for her, her attitude towards you is obviously showing that she wants to forgive you. Now it's

ruined again."

Collin was silent and handed Kathleen a copy of Ethel's statement.

"Ethel said she got my mom killed and deliberately provoked Rara. But I knew Ethel couldn't have had

that chance. She shot me on the island was to help me."

cough cough ...

He was speaking too quickly and coughed, "Honey, should I tell Rara the truth?"

Kathleen seriously helped him analyze, "There is misunderstanding between you two. If you help Ethel

defense, she will not think you are telling the truth. And she will only think you deliberately say so in

order to help Ethel. And she will even think you and Ethel colluded in advance on the island. That you

take this shot will become a bitter trick. "

Collin lowered his eyes gloomily, and was torn because he shared the same opinion with Kathleen.

Lyra didn't trust him at all right now, and Lyra was very sensitive about his attitude whenever it came to

Ethel.

He lowered his head and was silent.

Kathleen had been with him for so many years and knew him best, advising him to think outside the

box.

"Even if you tell this truth to her and she believes it and let Malcolm withdraw this charge, Ethel has

done too many bad things. And she will definitely have life imprisonment. The truth will not affect the

outcome of the trial at all."

"Honey, listen, leave it alone. Ethel herself knows it very well. The reason why she chooses this way is

that she prefers to stay in prison to serve her penance."

"What's more, it is only your guess. We all don't know what Ethel thinks in the end. None of us are

clear. If you go to mention this to Lyra, it's only detrimental."

Kathleen's every words were true.

Whether Ethel killed their mother or not, the moment she was sent to NIB, the ending was already

foregone.

He couldn't help her, and he won't help her again.

This was the consequence she asked for herself for so many years, and she can only bear it herself.

Collin stayed at home to recuperate. Although Lyra was very angry, he did not mention a word of

pleading for Ethel and didn't even intend to visit Ethel secretly. Seeing that, Lyra was not that angry any

more.

Two days later, Ethel's sentence was announced. It was life imprisonment.

She was taken to the prison door by an armed car. After spending almost a week at the bureau, she

was quite emaciated and she was already thin.

Her wrists were locked with heavy handcuffs, and she looked extraordinarily pathetic.

With the evil things she did before, they thought those who were pathetic always had some insufferable

sides.

Knowing that she was going to be sent to prison with no chance of getting out for the rest of her life,

she lowered her head and her eyes looked dark and numb with no emotion until a police took her out of

the car.

At the entrance of the prison, several people stood there.

Led by Lyra and Malcolm, Collin, Kathleen, Micah and Keith were all there.

She looked at them one by one and finally watched Lyra's face with a satisfied smile, "Lyra, my sister,

you are so kind to let so many relatives come to see me off. I am so happy."

Lyra's face was expressionless, "I call you Ethel Lloyd one last time. After today, your name will NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

disappear from the Lloyd family tree. We are your last day of kin."

The smile on Ethel's face was slightly stiff and then she relieved, "Yes, I understand, the Lloyd family is

the richest family in Crana. How can they allow their family to have such a big stain? I am sent to prison

to serve a sentence. It will only being shame on the family."

She kept staring at Lyra, and her smile can make them chill. She said with gloomy tone.

"Lyra, take care of yourself. Although I can't bring troubles to your life in the future, I'm in jail and will

definitely pray for you every day. I'm looking forward to your smooth life."

Lyra was sullen and watched her coldly without a word.

Ethel's gaze moved to several brothers and finally at Collin's face. She watched him for a minute,

seemingly with relief.

It was about time, and the police took her toward the gate.

As she was about to go inside, Ethel looked up at the bright sunlight and silently felt the warmth of the

shine that bathed her.

"I'm afraid this is the last time I see such a nice weather. It's nice to have so many siblings there before

doing a farewell ceremony with the first half of my life."

All the Lloyds present just stared at her and no one spoke.

Everyone had a calm expression as they watched her enter the prison step by step. The big and heavy

iron door that would lock her in this place forever. And she would repent for the sins she had committed

before.
