Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit -
Chapter 225
Chapter 225 In Vain
Because of Hank? Lyra's face was filled with a cold smile. She should have thought of this long ago. She took a deep breath and said, "Nore, I'll leave first." For the sake of Nore, she didn't want to argue with a profiteer like Hanming Lubi. "Stop!" Hanming slammed the table, his eyes fierce. Lucy wanted to stop him, but it was too late. "We, Lubi family, are willing to let you in because of your deceased father. You not only do not appreciate it but also talk back to me like this?" Hanming was only groveling in front of people like Hank, but today, he had actually been humiliated by Lyra.
He could not swallow this anger no matter what. When he spoke, he did not show any mercy. "Everyone in the city knows how you got this project. Hank has been lenient to you many times. Do you really think everyone is a fool?"
"Dad!"
"How can you say that to her?" Nore frowned. He stood in front of Lyra and contradicted his father without any scruples. "Alright, what's the big deal?" Lucy also tried to stop Hanming. Hanming snorted, “Why don't you take a look at what you are? With me..." "Boss Lubi's temper is really growing day by day." Hank's voice suddenly sounded. He was covered in dust and walked in from outside the door with a stern expression. His pair of cold eyes looked around the people present and finally fixed on Lyra. He came to the other side of Lyra and directly blocked the light above her head. "Mr. Barnwell!" Hanming immediately adjusted the expression on his face and came in front of them in a few steps. "Why didn't you tell us in advance before you came, so I could go to the door to welcome you?". Only then did Hank look over, and the light in his eyes was extremely cold. "I was just on the way. Otherwise, I won't be able to see such a good show." When Hanming heard the hidden meaning in his words, his smile became more and more awkward.
"Mr. Barnwell was just passing by?" Nore frowned and his tone was full of hostility. "I think you are coming for her." Lyra's heart skipped a beat. Before she could say anything, Hank gave a deep smile, and the coldness between his eyebrows was full of deterrence. "Since you know, I will take her away." When he said this, he grabbed Lyra's wrist. She was suddenly grabbed, staggered a few steps forward, and reluctantly followed him. "What are you doing? Let me go." Lyra struggled a few times. However, Hank suddenly tightened his grip, causing her wrist to hurt. "Or do you want to stay?" His gaze made Lyra unable to breathe.
At this time, it was too late for Hanming to regret it. He watched as Hank left with Lyra. "This, this is over! Why didn't you inform me that Hank was here?"
"I'm sorry, Sir," Sean and the maid immediately lowered their heads. "Nore, why don't you go out and take a look?" Lucy sighed helplessly.
Nore stared at the back of Lyra and Hank as they left.
"What for?"
Originally, Lyra had been avoiding him. Now, what right did he have to chase after her! Nore returned to his room with a cold face. He did not blame Lyra for leaving with Hank because he did not have the qualifications.
In the car.
Lyra's wrist was flung away by the man. Because the driver turned, she knocked against the car door.
There was a bang. The driver was shocked and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Miss Jones." "Never..." "You know it hurts, so you are not stupid. You actually dared to go to the Lubi family. How brave you were.". Lyra frowned and did not intend to pay attention to him. "Don't think that just because Nore is a little interested in you, Lubi family will treat you politely. You came closer to the Lubi family, which is even more embarrassing than Drake."
This was the third time today that someone had mentioned her father. All the grievances in Lyra's heart were hooked up. She gritted her teeth and asked back while facing Hank's cold gaze, "I just want to get close to Nore. He is handsome and rich. Most importantly, he likes me! And the Lubi family can also satisfy all my needs right now. If Mr. Barnwell is free, why don't you manage your own family affairs instead of lecturing me here?"
The man clenched the door handle with his right hand and said fiercely, "Okay, you are
right."
He almost ground out the words from his lips, full of coldness. "Please drop me off in front, Mr. Barnwell!" He no longer had any qualifications to casually pinch her. Half a minute later. Lyra was left at the crossroads. Watching from afar as Hank's car drove out of sight, she couldn't tell what she was feeling. How busy was Hank? How could he have gone to the Lubi family on the way and brought her out? The words he said that day came to his mind unnaturally. Lyra lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then sneered. "Even if I die, I won't go back to him." Hank would only treat her as an enemy until death. Lyra took two steps forward. Suddenly, there was the sound of a car honking. She looked up and saw a truck driving towards her. The car lights were so bright that she could not open her eyes. Bang! A violent crash sounded on the street. A thick smoke spread out, and Lyra opened her eyes in shock. Two trucks collided in the middle of the road.
Her ears rumbled, and then her eyes turned white, and she fainted.
"Miss, Miss?"
"She is really lucky. If she goes another half a meter, her legs will be finished." "Send her to the hospital!" There was a loud bang in her ear, but it suddenly quieted down. As soon as Lyra opened her eyes, she found herself lying on the emergency bed in the hospital. There were people coming and going around, and her ears were temporarily
deaf because of the impact. So much so that when she saw the corner of Hank's clothes, she wondered if there was something wrong with her brain. He had already been angered away by her, so how could he return?
For her safety? Impossible! "How is she?" Hank said with a cold face, looking unhappy. "The patient has no external injuries. When she wakes up, she needs to make a full CT scan to eliminate the possible side effects of a cerebral hemorrhage." The doctor said. He made a hook on the paper and handed it to Hank, "Sign it." He was not her family. But the man did not hesitate at all. He took it and signed it. If he did not sign, no one would care about Lyra's life. Hank lifted the curtain and met Lyra's eyes. He said a few words, but Lyra did not hear anything. Just as she was about to point to her ears, Hank picked up the phone and left in a hurry. Lyra lay alone on the bed and closed her eyes to rest. It was already an hour later when Hank returned. He seemed to be very angry. He lifted the quilt on Lyra and pulled her up. Lyra's arm was in pain from being pulled. She could not help but shout, "It hurts." Because she could not hear the sound, she could not control the volume of her voice. At that moment, Hank seemed to realize something. He grabbed Lyra's shoulder and whispered a few words into her ear. Lyra shook her head helplessly. "Don't waste your effort. I can't hear you. I wanted to tell you just now."
