Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit -
Chapter 117
Chapter 117 Then I Have a Condition
The more Lyra thought about it, the angrier she got. She took her phone and wanted to spread the news online.
However, if she did it without any preparation, it was very likely that she would be sent to the public relations department as soon as it was released, and the truth would sink into the sea.
She had to endure. Lyra took a deep breath and looked at the servant again. "What do I eat for lunch?"
Since she couldn't leave, she should enjoy herself. She would eat the most expensive food! During this time, Nore called her a few times. Lyra hadn't thought about how to face him, so she simply didn't answer. His engagement with Xu Ya was his business. Lyra had no right to interfere, and she never felt that Nore needed to explain anything to her. In terms of relationship, she was no longer suitable and would rather hide like an ostrich. Thinking about it now, there was nothing wrong with staying in Hank's empty villa, at least there was food and drink. It would save a few days of living expenses. Two days later Hank came back from a business trip. Just as he entered the door, he saw a woman sitting on the sofa, chewing on snacks. He frowned and saw that the sofa was full of snacks. The briefcase was heavily placed on the table. He walked over and said, "Why don't you eat proper food?" "Sister Zhang said that I can eat anything I want. Didn't you tell her that?" Lyra asked as she chewed. He did say that. "Go and change your clothes. I need to entertain Mr. Opple and his wife tonight. You should accompany me." Hank pulled her out of the sofa. "I don't have clothes." Lyra answered very calmly, then smiled sweetly, "Let me go. I have them at home. I'll go back and get them." "Heh... If I let you go, will you come back?" Hank sneered and pushed Lyra away with one hand. "The clothes are in the bag at the door. Mr. Opple has a good impression of you. He also pays attention to whether the partner has a stable marriage relationshin
"Then you should call Alma over. What if I refuse?" "Then you will stay here for the rest of your life." His voice was extremely cold, and his body emitted a heavy aura. He was not joking. "Then I have a condition." Lyra gnashed her teeth in anger. "Speak."
Two hours later.
Lyra was wearing a dress that Hank had brought back. It was a purple dress with an elegant style. Moreover, she did not wear any jewelry. Her hair was simply tied behind her head. She sat there with an ethereal beauty. Hank was discussing business matters with Mr. Opple. Lyra was accompanying him and occasionally chatted with Mrs. Opple. Hank promised to reduce the debt by one million. It was just a meal, she could endure it.
"I thought that the one who would appear here tonight would be that Miss Kensley." Mr. Opple smiled gently, and his words suddenly did not have any special meaning.
Lyra cut the steak without saying a word. "Lyra just happened to be looking for me, so I invited her to stay for dinner" Hank suddenly said with a smile. She came to look for him? The corners of Lyra's lips twitched, and she nodded reluctantly. This man's acting was really unexpected. "Has your relationship eased up? Can you still be friends after the divorce? Sorry, did I ask something I shouldn't ask?" Mr. Opple voiced out the doubts in his heart. The word divorce stuck in Lyra's heart. But she found that she no longer cared so much. "Yes, we can be friends even if we are separated." Lyra smiled without any playful posture, as if she was very sincere in saying her thoughts. Hank looked at her from the side. There were many things in those eyes that Lyra could not understand. "Since we are not meant to be, there is no need to be obsessed with the past. I believe that Mr. Barnwell also thinks so, right?" He still did not move.
Lyra looked over in surprise. Under the table, her foot hit Hank's leg. Only then did he slowly turn his head away and say, "Not really."
Lyra was stunned. What was going on with him!
She was so cooperative with his acting, and he actually dropped the ball at a critical moment?
Just as she was thinking about how to explain it, Hank said something that shocked her, "To be able to maintain this relationship, perhaps it's because one side wants to redeem it."
As soon as he said this, Lyra's mind buzzed.
Just as she was about to speak, Hank picked up some food and gave it to her. "Try some of this."
He deliberately created this ambiguous relationship so that the Opple couple would think that he was a dedicated and affectionate person. In order to succeed, this man really could do anything. For the rest of the time, Lyra did not say a word, because no matter what she said, Hank could describe the relationship between the two of them in a very delicate way. "Mr. Barnwell, thank you for your hospitality tonight. We have spent a very good time." Mr. Opple said this, and his wife smiled gently at Lyra. This night, she motioned to Lyra countless times that, if possible, she should consider getting back together with Hank. Lyra awkwardly pursed her lips.
If not for the one million, she would have exposed Hank's trick. She stood at the door and watched Hank send them off. For a moment, Lyra couldn't help but think, if the Jones family was still here.. Would the two of them maintain a seemingly normal marriage relationship like this? As the car drove out of sight, Lyra retracted her gaze and returned to her room to change back into her own clothes. This evening dress made every cell in her body very uncomfortable. When Hank returned after sending Opple and his wife back, he saw Lyra sitting on the sofa waiting for him. "Where are you going?" "Our deal is over. Mr. Barnwell, you have to keep your word." Lyra walked over expressionlessly and lowered her head to change her shoes. She had helped him act out this scene. He had removed her debt and treated her fairly. A layer of annoyance rose in the man's heart. He grabbed her wrist and asked, "Are you so anxious to leave?" He thought she wanted to run away from him and into the arms of another man. Lyra rolled her eyes helplessly. "Hank, if you are addicted to this kind of cosplay, go replace your Alma and stay away from me." She had no time to play this boring game with him. Lyra shook off the man's hand and fled the villa as fast as she could. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, something would grow in her heart. The man in the villa had a cold expression. After a long time, his hand hung down and his gaze fell on the seat where Lyra had just sat. Escape from him? Lyra, you are not the one to decide this! After leaving Hank's villa, Lyra walked aimlessly on the street for three hours before returning to the city from the outskirts. She scolded Hank ten thousand times in her heart. When she opened the door and went home, it was already early in the morning. She was too sleepy and fell asleep in the quilt.
The next day, when she opened her eyes, there were more than a dozen unread messages on her phone.
Just then, Liu Yuanyuan called. When she picked up, there was a worried voice on the other side. "Lyra, are you alright? Why can't I replace you for two days!"
