Chapter 200 Betting Wrong
Wendy quickly entered the hospital. When she reached the door of the ward, she met Hank. "Hank, how is our Alma?" "She is still unconscious." Hank glanced back at the window of the ward and walked towards the director's office. Keith followed
Wendy shook her head and sighed. She pushed the door open and entered. "Alma?" She shouted. The person on the bed still had her eyes closed and did not react. Wendy carefully closed the door and locked it. "They went to the director's office. If you are awake, then..." Before she could finish speaking, Alma had already opened her eyes. She waved her hand. "Quick, bring me something to eat. I'm starving."
Just now, Hank and Keith had been there. She did not dare to move, afraid that she would be exposed. Acting was so hard. Wendy quickly poured her some water and brought her a banana. "Is Hank very worried about me?" Alma asked while eating. Wendy nodded slightly.
"I knew it. As long as I am willing to risk it, Hank would be worried. Now he must have started to suspect Lyra. It won't be long before I can get her out of Hank's world." As she spoke, she became even more pleased with herself. Seeing her like this, Wendy thought about what Lyra had just said and understood everything. Lyra indeed did not do anything. It was Alma who had wronged her. "Alma, aren't you afraid that he will replace out that you are acting?" Alma frowned and threw the banana peel in front of Wendy. "What are you talking about? Who is acting?"
She had already thought about it. As long as she did not admit it, no one would be able to replace out.
Even if Hank really saw something, so what?
It was a fact that she had to lie in bed to keep the fetus because of this fall. As long as he still cared about this child, she would have a chance. Wendy sighed silently and wanted to say a few words of advice, but she was interrupted by a knock on the door. Alma immediately lay back in the quilt, pretending that she had just woken up and was still very uncomfortable. Wendy went over to open the door. "This is what Mr. Barnwell asked me to prepare for Miss Kensley," Keith stood at the door and handed over some daily necessities. "Where is Hank?" Alma leaned over and asked. "Mr. Barnwell has something to deal with at the last minute. He should be back soon." Keith said so, looking straight ahead. Alma lay on the bed, her eyes rolling around. "Alright then, I won't disturb him." She was out of character and did not cry or make a fuss. She covered herself with a blanket and fell asleep with her back to them. "Alma still feels very uncomfortable. Let the doctor come over to take a look later. This time, the fall was not light. You have to pay attention." Wendy took the opportunity to go forward.
"Yes."
Keith nodded and looked in Alma's direction before closing the door and leaving. "Your dad will come after the meeting. You should sleep first." Wendy closed the door and moved to the bedside. The corners of Alma's lips twitched, and she smiled proudly. However, Wendy looked out of the window. At this time, Lyra might not have left yet, but Hank was most likely going to look for Lyra. Could it be that Alma and the child in her belly added up was not as important as Lyra?
Wendy muttered in her heart. Looking at Alma on the bed, she wondered if she had bet on the wrong side. But if Lyra was really that important to Hank, then the Jones family wouldn't have been in trouble back then.
What was Hank thinking?
At this time, outside the hospital hall. Hank raised his cold eyes and saw Lyra playing with a wild cat at the entrance of the
hospital. The smile on her face was so bright and natural. He rarely saw her like that. Lyra's slender wrist reached out and gently touched the hair on the kitten's head. That gentle movement was enough to show her patience and kindness. How could a person like her attack the pregnant Alma? No matter how much she hated him, the person she should be targeting should be him. It was precisely because he understood this that Hank abruptly stopped walking forward.
Perhaps, he really shouldn't have trapped Lyra by his side. It wasn't that he couldn't, but that he no longer had the right to do so. He looked over again. Lyra picked up the phone and then left in a hurry. The last trace of warmth in the man's eyes disappeared. When he looked up again, there was a deep coldness. They were indeed strangers.
The phone call that Lyra picked up was from Sonny. He said a lot on the phone. The more Lyra listened, the more confused she became. She was anxious to take a taxi and rushed to the team. Only then did she know that today was the official day of the team disbanding. There were also a few reporters outside, waiting to interview Nore. "The news has already been released. It was originally a gathering of people from the team. I didn't expect it to be so complicated. But I don't know why these reporters came over."
"I guess it has something to do with Lubi family's recent business." Sonny sighed and said apologetically to Lyra, "I'm really sorry to have called you here again because of the team. But Nore has a stubborn temper. He won't listen to other people's words..." Sonny scratched his head. "If he gets angry because of those reporters later, I'll have to trouble you to help me stop him. It's not easy for the team to get to where it is today. Although Black Horse is over, the rest of us may still have to stay in this business." Lyra lowered her eyes and thought about it.
She also understood what Sonny meant. Thinking about what Alma said today, Lyra also thought about meeting Nore and
making things clear. "Okay, I understand. I will try my best." "Then I am relieved." Sonny heaved a sigh of relief and let the others clean up the room. When Nore arrived, he would let the reporters come in to take a few photos. Not long after, Nore arrived.
However, he did not come alone, and Séan was following behind him. "Lyra." "I heard that Alma went to the hospital again. Are you okay?" Nore asked. He was the first one to care about her. "What could she do to me?" Lyra asked with a smile. "That's true." "Alright, everyone get ready. I'll let the reporters in." Sonny wanted to hurry up and let the reporters leave. As soon as he opened the door, the reporters all rushed in. At first, all the cameras were aimed at Nore, but they soon found Lyra next to him.
Suddenly, a reporter rushed up. "Miss Jones, your performance in the competition on behalf of Black Horse was really amazing. You also created a new record of the competition. Do you have any thoughts of signing with other teams in the future?" "What?" Lyra was surprised. All of a sudden, the other cameras also caught up. "Miss Jones, please talk about your opinion of other female racers!" "Miss Jones, when did you start to get involved in racing?" The direction of the wind had changed, and they all surrounded Lyra. Lyra could not withstand it alone, and she repeatedly signaled to Nore with her eyes. "Oh," Nore said. Just as he was about to go over, he was stopped by Sean. "Young Master, if you go over now, those reporters will definitely ask about your relationship. Master has just been discharged from the hospital, so it's best if you don't stick your head out."
