After divorce I am a billionaire
Chapter 593 A party; husband group's peeling shrimp sceneEthel was in jail and Lyra's entanglement with her was over.
After days of running around for these things, even losing sleep at night, Lyra finally got a good night's sleep.
Since Abigail was in Suham for the first time, Lyra took the initiative and invited her and Micah to dinner at Lyre Spiti.
Melissa had been busy all day since she became the team manager and had not had a good rest for a long time. Lyra, seeing that she can finally fulfill her life and find a career she was interested in, also invited her and Keith over for dinner.
Micah, Keith and their fiancees were there. Kathleen knew about it and took Collin here for this family party.
Eventually Chad and Keira came over.
What started out as a treat for a small group ended up being a party.
Lyra and Malcolm bought many vegetables and meat and cooked the dinner themselves.
Because there were too many people and she was afraid of Malcolm being too busy, Lyra helped him in the kitchen, which was rate. And Kathleen also came to help them.
Chad, Keira, Collin, Micah, Abigail, Keith, and Melissa were left and all sat in the living room chatting.

The only regret was that Spencer and Momo were still in the Rudolph's home. And it was not convenient to bring them over to play with their uncles and future aunts.
Nearly an hour later, a sumptuous seafood dinner was served by Lyra and Malcolm.
Malcolm fetched a few bottles of good wine and poured glasses of wine for each person to celebrate such a family gathering.
At the dinner table, Lyra asked, "Abigail, how soon are you going to marry Micah?" Abigail was peeling shrimp for herself and was suddenly mentioned. Feeling embarrassed, she lowered her head, "I can't decide it alone. It depends on Micah's decision and my parents’ confering. | have been deprived of the right to speak. Even the resistance is ineffective.” Lyra turned her attention back to Micah who was eating quietly, "Micah, what do you think?" Micah said seriously, "Abigail chased after me for a year before. | plan to chase after her well for a year. If Abigail is willing, we'll get married the end of next year.” So it wasn't too late. Lyra nodded in relief, but glanced at Keith who kept peeling shrimp and crabs and putting them into Melissa's bowl.
Melissa was a little embarrassed and stopped him from doing so, insisting on doing it herself. But she couldn't resist Keith's spoiling and eventually had to eat the seafood he peeled.
Lyra observed the sweet doting of Keith and looked at Micah and Abigail.
Abigail was peeling shrimp on her own, and Micah was also eating, who was completely unaware of this.
She lightly tut-tutted twice to remind, "Micah, you have to be more diligent in chasing after Abigail. Look at Keith. He's peeling crab and lobster so vigorously. Don't you have to be more active too?" Micah was about to eat but stopped and all looked at Keith who was diligently peeling shrimp.
"You're right." Micah immediately put down his knife and fork, followed Keith's example, and peeled the crab for Abigail.
Abigail was warmed as she watched his rusty but serious movements as he peeled the crab.
She glanced at Lyra and the two smiled at each other.
While making eye contact with Abigail, Lyra suddenly had a lot more peeled seafood in her bowl.
She glanced down and realized that Malcolm had already been peeling for her, starting almost at the same time as Keith.
But she complimented Keith, but him. And Malcolm looked aggrieved and slightly offended.
Lyra immediately cupped his face and gently kissed his thin lips, "Honey, you're so good." At the dinner table, from the drinking wine and eating food, it turned into a large seafood peeling scene.
Keith, Micah and Malcolm were so attentive to help their beloved ones peel seafood. Collin was not willing to be outdone and soon joined the peeling seafood camp.
All the men at the table, except Chad, were dutifully serving their beloved ones. Keira deflated and poked Chad with her elbow, silently reminding him to take the initiative.
Chad was completely ignorant and ate his own food.
Keira cursed him a million times in her heart and reminded him in a whisper while clenching teeth, "You can peel one for me too." "You want to eat crabs too?" Keira held back her anger and nodded with a smile.
Chad looked around the whole table of sumptuous seafood, and finally take a crab to disassemble and peel skillfully.
He took off the fatty crab roe and passed it to Keira's mouth in an unprecedented move, "Do you want some?" Keira, who was surprised and flattered by his readiness to feed her, shouted sweetly and glamorously, "Thanks Chad." She licked her lips and opened her mouth to eat the crab roe in his hand, but bit nothing when her mouth was about to touch the crab roe.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChad quickly took his hand back and ate it himself, "If you want to eat, peel it yourself. They are couples or unmarried couple relationship. We are not the same. Feeding you is not appropriate. The e is no need to follow their example." Keira's eyes were red. She didn't get to eat the crab robe and was being scolded. She was dying of grievance, "Why is it different? It's such a nice atmosphere tonight. We can pretend to be couple too!" Chad shook his head, "We're not a couple. I'm the one raising you. You can call me dad if you want, then I'll peel the shrimp for my good girl." Keira was furious, "Chad White! You're trying to take advantage of me!" Chad couldn't agree with her accusation, "Letting you call me dad is taking advantage? Won't | be taking advantage if we pretend to be a couple with you and let you call me your boyfriend?" He thought he was right, until Malcolm hit him with a fork.
"Rara said you are too straight and you have a one-track mind. Tonight I finally know how ridiculously low your EQ is. As NIB's incoming deputy director, how can you be so stupid?" Chad obediently listened to his scolding and did not retort at all.
Other people quickly noticed the key words in Malcolm's words.
Keith: "Chad is getting promoted to deputy director? Congratulations." Lyra also nodded her head in praise, "From Captain of NIB Team 4 to deputy director, Chad, you're well worth it." Being complimented, Chad laughed, "Thanks to your and Mr. Keith for the compliment. It's all due to my brother's intentional promotion.” Lyra suddenly changed the topic, "But Malcolm is right. Deputy director has to be more sophisticated. Your EQ can't be too low.
Chad, honestly, do you like Keira?" She know Keira's feelings for Chad. Keira once considered Chad an idol and the only love of her life.
As for Chad's care and attention to Keira, it was clear that he had feelings for her, but he was wooden towards relationship.
Keira was afraid that Chad didn't like her, so she didn't confess her feelings first.
Taking this opportunity tonight, Lyra wanted to be a matchmaker and help them admit their feelings for each other.
Suddenly being asked a question, Keira lowered her head and nervously squeezed her palm.
She expected Chad to say something that will delight her but feared that he will say something that will disappoint her.
She felt it complicated.
Chad, at the center of the conversation, also froze.
He was silent for a long time without answering, and seemed to be thinking deeply about the answer in his heart. He was very cautious about the topic.
