Chapter 149 Ganging Up on Lyra
Jayden responded and hurriedly went to the first-floor lounge to open the door.
After the door was opened, the group sneaked out while carrying Lyra.
When they arrived at the equestrian park, Hunter and Luke tossed the sack to the ground.
Sydney then went forward, unscrewed the water bottle, and poured the water on the sack.
Inside the sack, Lyra felt the ice-cold water dripping from her head, and she shivered from the cold.
It instantly woke her up.
Only then did she realize she was in an extremely tiny space and could not see anything.
She groped around, and when she felt the texture of the rough fabric on her body, she understood
what was happening.
She was stuffed into a sack!
At that moment, Lyra was furious and struggled to get out of the sack. She gnashed her teeth and
roared, " Jayden Flint, how dare you team up with Sydney and the others to mess with me?"
She was not stupid. There were only a few people in the vi. Who else besides Sydney''s group
would put her in a sack?
Jayden stood next to Sydney and lowered his voice. " Sydney, how does she know I teamed up with
you guys?"
"Anyone could guess that, dummy." Luke whacked him on the head.
Jayden was so angry that he kicked Luke.
Luke stuck his tongue out and ran away.
Jayden was a basketball yer. Although he was only a teenager, he was already taller than Luke.
Luke would be in pain for days if Jayden kicked him.
"Alright, enough already." Sydney saw the two messing around and reprimanded them with a frown.
The two immediately quiet down like obedient students.
In the sack, Lyra''s face twisted furiously when she heard Sydney''s voice. "Sydney Raines, it really is
you! How dare you do this to me?"
''Damn it, what kind of sack was this? Why can''t I get it off?’
"Why wouldn''t I?" Sydney snickered. "Since you dare to harm me again and again, why won''t I dare
to fight back?"
Lyra choked but soon became arrogant again. "Aren''t you afraid of Julien finding out about this?"
"Why should I be afraid of him? Who is he to me?"
Sydney rolled her eyes.
Lyra sneered. "Keep acting. When Julien learns that you did this to me, he''ll only hate you even
more."
"So?" Sydney said indifferently.
The corner of Luke''s lips tugged. "Hey, do you think that this can provoke my darling? You don''t
think my darling still likes Julien, do you? I''m telling you, my darling stopped liking him long ago, so
why would she care about what he thinks about her?"
At that, Lyra''s expression shifted. "Impossible!"
Sydney did not like Julien? What kind of joke was that?
She knew very well since university how much Sydney liked Julien. Otherwise, how would she
willingly let herself be bullied in the Flint residence for six years? Lyra refused to believe that
Sydney did not like Julien.
"You can choose to believe it or not, but it''s time we stop talking nonsense and get down to
business,"
Luke said as he waved his hand. He was already very impatient.
Frightened, Lyra began to panic, and they could hear it in her voice. "W-What are you nning to
do?"
"You''ll find out soon enough." Hunter rubbed his hands and cackled, looking like a stereotypical thug
on the street. Sharon rolled her eyes at him.
Then, the group surrounded Lyra and began to beat
her up.
Since Lyra was a woman, they did not use much force, but it was enough to make Lyra feel the
pain.
However, besides the pain, what Lyra could not stand most was the humiliation.
She huddled in the sack, her eyes scarlet. She kept her arms in front of her face, carefully
protecting her face, and her teeth bit her lower lip to prevent herself from screaming out loud.
She would remember that grudge. One day, she would make those people experience a fate worse
than death!
A few minutester, Sydney told them to stop.
Luke shook his hands. "That was so refreshing."
"I feel the same." Jayden nodded and agreed.
Hunter touched his chin with a hint of regret on his face. "It''s a pity she could tolerate it. She was
obviously in pain, but she didn''t let out a single scream. It doesn''t feel as satisfying."
"Who cares? At least we''ve gotten some justice for President Raines," said Sharon.
"That''s true," Hunter responded.
"Okay, untie the sack and head back," Sydney instructed.
With that, Luke bent down and pulled the rope from the mouth of the sack.
"Check on her condition." Sydney pointed at Lyra.
Luke hummed and opened the sack.
Hunter also cooperated by turning on the shlight on his phone.
That way, everyone could see Lyra''s condition clearly.

She was still curled up with her eyes tightly shut. She seemed to have fainted.
On her exposed arms and face were patches of bruises. It was clear at a nce that she was not
lightly beaten.
"It''s just some flesh wounds and nothing serious. She''ll be fine after a few days." Sharon squatted
down to check Lyra''s injuries.
Hunter raised his brows. "You know medicine?"
"No, but I used to work as a bodyguard. It''s a job where injuries are inevitable, so I''ve gotten used to
dealing with them." Sharon stood up and briefly exined her situation.
Sydney nced at her, feeling that she was getting more and more mysterious.
At first, Sydney had thought that Sharon was the daughter of some big family who concealed her
identity to work at Skylight. After all, Sharon had helped deal with the Graham family. She could not
have done that if she had no background.
Now, after hearing that Sharon used to work as a bodyguard, Sydney''s previous guesses were
dismissed.
However, no matter what Sharon''s identity was, it was enough as long as she was on Sydney’s
side.
"Ms. Campbell, you used to work as a bodyguard?" Jayden’s eyes shone brightly as he looked at
Sharon.
Sharon nced at him. "What? Is there a problem with that?"
"No, no. I just wanted to ask... Do you know all kinds of martial arts?" Jayden asked.
Sharon nodded. "More or less."
Excitement washed over Jayden. "In that case, can you teach me?"
All boys liked martial arts.
"No." However, Sharon refused bluntly.
Jayden’s expression dulled for a moment before he quickly perked up again. "How about if I call you
Master?"
"I don''t ept apprentices."
"Then what do you want me to do for you to teach me?"
"I''m not going to teach you. Just give up."
"Oh,e on..."
The group of people walked away slowly. Until they were out of sight, Lyra opened her eyes
abruptly and sat up from the ground. Her eyes were filled with ruthlessness and monstrous hatred.
"Sydney, Luke, Hunter, Julien, just you wait!" Lyra murmured with a scowl.
After that, she endured the pain in her body and limped toward the vi.
By that time, Sydney and the others had gone back to their respective rooms.
The living room was empty, so Lyra went to the coffee table, poured two cups of water, took a deep
breath, and sshed it on her face and head.
After wetting her face and hair, Lyra raised her hand and messed up her hair, followed by her
clothes, making her look even more disheveled.
Then, she walked toward the stairs and changed the expression on her face to a gloomy one. She
knocked on Julien''s door and cried. "Julien... Julien..."
Julien, who was sleeping, heard the sound and immediately woke up.
He sat up and rubbed his temples, his expression a littleplicated.
He had a dream just now. He dreamed of Sydney and the child in her belly.
The child was born. It was a baby boy - his baby boy.
He was ecstatic. However, just as he was about to name the child, he suddenly heard Lyra''s voice.
Was that also a dream?
