Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit -
Chapter 188
Chapter 188 Engagement?
"I don't quite understand what Mr. Barnwell means, but it seems that we can't continue to talk. Mr. Barnwell should think about how to explain it to your wife." He could casually think of a way to push her to the forefront. She could also borrow Kensley family's hand to make him uncomfortable. A good project was given to the Jones family. Lachlan was not a fool. When he heard the news, he would naturally ask Alma to come and replace out.
In the business world, she was much worse than Hank.
But in terms of understanding women's thoughts, Lyra was better. "Hank, open the door." Alma shouted persistently, almost jumping up and smashing the door. "Alright, be quiet. There are still so many people outside." Wendy, who was following behind, carefully pulled her. "So what? Who knows what tricks Lyra used to make Hank give such a big project to her? How shameless. I must..."
Before she could finish her words, the door opened from the inside. Lyra looked up and glanced at Alma, "Miss Kensley should be more careful with her words. Slandering is a crime. Moreover, the lawsuit against you has not been cleared yet. Take it easy, otherwise, the police will come to you at any time." Alma was so angry that her face turned green and white. However, she was not as smart as Lyra and her mouth was not good. She could only watch Lyra leave. She turned around and rushed straight into the conference room. "Hank, why did you do that? Not only did you return the stupid company to her, but you also gave her such a big project. Do you still have feelings for her?" "Have you said enough?" The coldness in Hank's eyes became even stronger. Kensley family's threat was not enough for him to pay attention to.
However, Alma was pregnant with his child after all. It was really a headache for him to deal with her.
"Hank, I don't want to make a scene like this either, but if you get too close to Lyra, what will others think of me? Do you really not think about me at all?" Alma lowered her head and shed a few tears. She was so weak that Hank could not say anything harsh.
it'm inint hucinano nothina olea" He walked over his tone still calme
Alma sobbed a few times, raised her head, and looked at him shyly, "Really?".
Hank did not speak again. "That's good. On the way here, I heard that Lyra is about to get engaged to Nore. If there is any scandal between you and her, it will definitely affect you. How bad would that be?" Alma threw herself into his arms. "Engaged?" Hank's hand slowly tightened. Alma leaned in his arms and murmured, "Yes, when I came, I happened to meet Mrs. Lubi. She said that she wanted to take Lyra to try on the dress..." There was no response for a long time. Alma's sobbing gradually stopped.
No man would pick up a used woman. A man as proud and outstanding as Hank was even more so. That Lyra was no longer worthy! Outside the entrance of the venue. Lyra was pulled by Nore to Lucy. "After Nore was discharged from the hospital, his father and I missed you very much. You always say that you are busy, but you never come and visit." Lyra looked at Nore with a pleading look. She did decline several invitations, mainly because she did not know what to say after meeting them. After thinking about it, she thought it was better to not see them. Who would have thought that Lucy would come here today? "When will you guys finish? I will wait for you here. Tonight, we must have a meal together!" The more Lucy looked at Lyra now, the more she liked her. In addition, since the car accident, Nore had been focused on taking care of his family business.
This was also what the couple wanted to see the most.
And all of this was because of Lyra, so Lucy sincerely liked Lyra right now. She wished that they could get married right away.
The gossip outside was not important. The most important thing was that her son worked hard. Moreover, she heard that Hank had never even gone home when he was married to Lyra.
That marriage was just an empty title.
"Well..." Lyra smiled and elbowed Nore from behind
"Mom, Lyra got a big project today. She should be busy until late. Next time." Nore grinned. In the distance, Hank was seeing Alma off. As soon as he came out, he saw them standing outside the door, chatting happily. "Look, I didn't say anything wrong, right? Hank, you better not get involved with her in the future." Alma raised her chin. She deliberately provoked him.
There was no warmth in Hank's eyes. After sending Alma into the car, he directly turned around and walked over. "Director Jones, we still have things to talk about just now." His face was as cold as an iceberg, and his tone was also very aggressive. Lyra knew that he was coming for her, so she frowned and asked, "Mr. Barnwell is a workaholic himself, so he won't let others rest either?"
She pushed it back bluntly.
However, Hank directly reached out to pull her over. In his dictionary, there was no such word as 'invite'. "Mr. Barnwell, you should have heard what she said. She doesn't want to talk right now." Nore was one step ahead and blocked his hand. He took two steps forward, separating Hank and Lyra. Even if it was for business, he should give people time to rest. What's more, Hank was doing this for personal gain. "It's none of your business." Hank furrowed his brows, his tone filled with anger. "I am Lyra's... friend. Her business is my business." Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was getting more and more strange, Lyra hurriedly said, "Alright, Auntie, let's meet later. Let's meet later." Then, she patted Nore and said, "Forget it." Hank just couldn't stand seeing her happy with others, so he found all sorts of ways to torment her. "You can send Auntie away first." Lyra whispered and pushed him to the other side. When she turned to face Hank again, she also had a cold face. "What does Mr. Barnwell want to talk about? Let's go." "You change your face so fast." Hank gritted his teeth and said. She had two completely different attitudes towards Lubi family and him! Lyra muttered something in a low voice. She turned around and went into the venue.
According to the meeting process, they were going to stay in the hotel across the street for four days and three nights. It was so that the companies could arrange their future schedule and improve their understandings of each other. This also meant that even if Lyra did not want to see Hank's face, she would at least have to bear it for the next few days. She would think of a way to replace a few suitable employees later and see what to do next. Her mind was full of these matters, completely ignoring the cold pressure of the man beside her. "Why is Lubi family talking to you?" He said coldly as soon as he entered the elevator. "It has nothing to do with you." Lyra pressed the floor button and said in an unhappy tone. "Are you really going to get engaged to Nore?" His eyes were full of scrutiny as he looked straight at her. Lyra really didn't know what he was thinking. How did he even come up with that conclusion?
However, she was too lazy to explain. She didn't say anything. Anyway, no matter what she said, this man wouldn't believe it. The more she was like this, the stronger the anger in Hank's eyes became. "Lyra Jones!"
