Chapter 307 Lyra Gets Arrested

"What do you mean?" Lyra's heart thumped as a huge wave of uneasiness surged in her heart.

Clarice took out the new mobile phone that Mrs. Madden bought for her and waved it." Before I came in, I already saw the evidence released by the hacker helping Ms. Raines. There are two videos. The videos were really interesting. In them, it was you who personally admitted that those six men were supposed to violate Ms. Raines instead."

"What?" Lyra's expression changed greatly. Her hands and feet went cold.

"Give me the phone!" She snatched Clarice's phone.

Clarice did not stop her and merely looked at her with a vague smile.

Lyra's hands grasped the phone tightly as she watched the videos that Clarice was talking about.

When she saw the contents of the two videos, she felt like her brain exploded from a thunderbolt. She was completely stunned, and her mind went blank.

"How... How could this be?" Lyra's grip went slack, and the phone slipped from her hands and fell on the quilt with a thump.

However, it was as if she did not notice. Her expression was dazed as she looked at the ground with hazy eyes. There was only one thought in her mind: 'I was exposed. I'm finished!'

Clarice laughed gleefully when she saw Lyra like this. "See? I told you you won't have a chance. Now, everyone in the world knows that it wasn't Ms. Raines who set you up and arranged for six men to violate you. It was the other way around. You were the one who set Ms. Raines up and arranged for six men to violate her. Furthermore, with your false accusations against Ms. Raines today, these two charges added up will be enough for you to rot in jail for several years."

Speaking of this, she seemed to remember something and stuck a pinky in her ear. " By the way, many netizens have tagged the police station for them to arrest you. The police also replied that they’re on their way. In other words, you'll be formally arrested soon. Judging by the time, it should be right about now."

As soon as Clarice finished speaking, the ward door was opened.

Brandon and his wife came in first.

Brandon's expression was hideous, and Mrs. Madden was also sobbing piteously.

Behind them were several police officers in uniform. They strode over to the hospital bed with handcuffs in their hands.

Clarice put away her arrogant expression. She pointed at the officers, then at Lyra, and pretended to be puzzled. "Mom, Dad, what's going on?"

"Clarice, come here." Mrs. Madden beckoned her.

Clarice hummed. She looked at Lyra and then walked over.

There were only a few police officers left around the bed. The person leading the group was the male officer who had come to question Lyra during the day.

He held handcuffs and looked at Lyra with a straight face. "Ms. Madden, please come with us."

Lyra finally recovered from her daze and looked at the police officers. When she saw the silver glint of the handcuffs, she completely panicked and shook her head vehemently. "No. I'm not going. I'm not going!"

"You don't have a choice," the policeman said and handcuffed her directly.

Lyra shivered when the cold handcuffs came into contact with her skin. Her heart panicked as she started to hyperventilate.

She struggled and looked at Brandon and Mrs. Madden, crying, "Mom, Dad, help me!"

Brandon simply turned his head away, not looking at her.

Save her?

The evidence was conclusive. How was he supposed to save her? If he went forward, it would be obstruction of justice, and he would be taken away as well.

Trison Corporation was already weighing him down. The situation would only get worse if he was taken away too.

Now, he had to think about how to stabilize Trison's stock market after news of Lyra's arrest spread.

Lyra's heart chilled for a moment when she saw Brandon do this to her. Then, she looked at Mrs. Madden.

Mrs. Madden did not dare to look at Lyra. She turned her head away and cried.

If Brandon could not save Lyra, what could she, a full-time wife, do?

When Lyra saw that neither her father nor

her mother was willing to save her, her heart went completely cold. At the same time, a great resentment rose in her heart.

'They said that they love me and that I was their only daughter. They said that they would love me forever and protect me forever.

'However, now that Clarice came back, they forgot all about those promises and even want to give up on me. How could they?'

Seeing Lyra's expression full of resentment, Clarice's lips buried in Mrs. Madden's arms curled up. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

'Hate us. Hate us even more!

'The more Lyra hates Mom and Dad, the less she would care about her feelings toward Mom and Dad. When she completely loses the affection in Mom and Dad...

'Then, my parents will be mine alone.'

Lyra was taken away.

Since she was not well yet, she was taken away in a wheelchair by the police.

Outside the hospital, reporters had already arrived and caught the scene of Lyra being arrested by the police. The Internet boiled with cheers.

After all, before the two videos appeared, they were all on Lyra's side. They felt that Lyra was pitiful and that Sydney was evil.

However, after those two videos were released, they finally understood. Sydney never schemed against Lyra. Lyra was the one who tried to harm Sydney, but her plan ultimately failed. She was violated in Sydney’s place by the six men that she arranged for when they mistook her for Sydney.

The perpetrator failed and became the victim, but she refused to give up and still tried to frame Sydney.

In short, the netizens who watched Lyra's broadcast and felt sympathetic toward her had all their pity converted into disgust and resentment for Lyra.

Of course, they did not hate Lyra because she schemed and made false accusations against Sydney. They hated Lyra because she used them to achieve her purpose of framing Sydney.

For a time, the Internet was filled with curses for Lyra.

Lyra had no hacker behind her, so they did not have to worry about their information being exposed. Thus, they did not hold back at all when they cursed her. They scolded her even more severely than they did with Sydney.

Trison Corporation's stock market also went into turmoil. Brandon rushed there overnight and held a shareholders' meeting.

In Shallow Bay, Sydney looked at the wave of apologies on her social media account, and then at the tsunami of curses on Lyra's account, and a smile surfaced on her lips.

Then, she dialed Finn's number. "Lyra has been taken away by the police. I think she'll involve you later. You..."

"I know what you're going to say. Don't worry, I'll be fine." Finn pushed up his glasses.

Sydney heard his words and nodded. "In that case, I'll say this first. Thank you for taking those two videos back then.

Otherwise, it'd be really hard for me to clear my name today."

"It's nothing," Finn replied with a small chuckle.

Then, the two exchanged a few more words before ending the call

However, the moment Sydney put down her phone, it rang again.

She looked up and saw that it was Layden, so she hurriedly hung up and called him back using the other number.

"Sis?" Layden called out in uncertainty.

Sydney nodded. "It's me."

"Why...?"

"It's to be safe. Luke should've told you, right?" Sydney asked.

Layden was silent and only spoke after a few seconds, "Yes."

"Gees, I can't believe you learned such an amazing skill without anyone knowing. If you didn't reveal yourself, I really wouldn't have known that you were that little fox." Sydney rubbed her temples.

Cayden smiled gently. "I'm sorry, Sydney. I didn't want to scare you, so I hid it from you. You're not angry at me, right?"

"How could I be angry when you helped me? But Cay, tell me honestly. The police won't be able to find you, right?" Sydney wrinkled her brows and asked in a serious tone.

Cayden’s expression also turned solemn." They won't. My hacking skill is in the world's top three. The police won't be able to catch me at all."

Sydney breathed a huge sigh of relief at that. "That's good. I'm relieved. By the way, why did you call me now? Do you need something?"
