Sir Please Mellow Down A Bit Chapter 385

Chapter 385 A Stalemate

Alma was unconscious and hospitalized. Lachlan only showed up the next day. When the father and daughter met, their expressions were very complicated. Especially when Lachlan saw that Lyra was also in the ward. "Why are you..." Just as Lachlan was about to question her, many reporters rushed in from the corridor.

"Miss Kensley, can you accept our interview? We are all very concerned about your condition!"

"Why did you faint at Mr. Barnwell's home? Was it just the two of you at that time?" "Was it because you went to replace him because of the matter of his reunion with his ex-wife, but you were so angry that you fainted?"

The reporters were all very gossipy. The entanglement between the three of them was a recent hot gossip that everyone wanted to dig up. "Miss Kensley, is it related to Miss Jones that you suddenly fainted?" Lachlan had no choice but to restrain the anger on his face. He turned around and faced the reporters with a bit of worry. "Everyone, my daughter needs to rest. She is in a very bad mental state right now. I hope you won't ask anymore. When the time is right, we will take the initiative to explain everything to the public."

"Mr. Kensley, is there anything that is difficult to say?" "Miss Kensley is the biggest victim of Mr. Barnwell's reunion with her ex-wife!" "Is the relationship between them still the same as before? After all, Miss Kensley is the only girlfriend of the opposite sex that Mr. Barnwell admitted after his divorce." One question after another followed. Lachlan only sighed, keeping the reporters' appetite in suspense. "I really can't face the camera now. Sorry." Facing the reporter, he looked like a loving father. He turned around and closed the door of the ward. Immediately, his face changed. He stared coldly at Alma who was lying on the bed and shouted coldly, "Put on your clothes and go back with me immediately! Do you know that everyone was waiting for you last night? In the end, you ran to the Barnwell family."

He had arranged a wine bureau to introduce Alma to several familiar bosses. After this deal, the situation of the Kensley Group would be much better in the future. He did not have to worry about the debt collectors from the bank. In the end, this little bitch dared to go against his wishes? Since they had already fallen out, Lachlan did not care whether Lyra was present or

not. He went up and wanted to pull Alma off the bed. "No, I won't go!" "If you touch her again, I will open the door and let the reporters take photos." Lyra looked at Lachlan coldly and gritted her teeth. Lachlan froze.

"Don't come over, or I will jump down." Alma took the opportunity to run to the window from the other side of the bed. "Ah... good, very good." "Do you think you can resist me like this? Don't forget, I raised her for more than twenty years. Without my permission, she will never be able to leave the Kensley family in this life." Lachlan gritted his teeth and said fiercely. Lachlan slammed the door and left.

The reporters outside naturally followed him. The first thing Lachlan did when he got in the car was to call his subordinates and ask them to watch Lyra carefully. No matter who she saw, they had to report to him immediately. The corridor gradually quieted down. Alma stood barefoot by the window sill, her fingernails tightly clasped in her palms. "Are you satisfied? Now I am homeless like you." Looking at her beautiful and pale face, Lyra frowned. "The person you should hate is not me, but Lachlan." It was that man's selfishness that caused them to be like this. "But he was right. He raised me for more than twenty years. What about you? When you had the family, did you ever think that there was me in this world? This was all retribution. It served the Jones family right to be retaliated against by Hank!" Lyra clenched her fingers tightly. In the end, she was powerless to let go. After a long time, she slowly asked, "Do you have to be with Hank?" "Why are you asking so despite knowing the answer? Are you trying to humiliate me?" "Why weren't you the one who was taken away by Lachlan back then? That way, Hank would have fallen in love with me."

She hated Hank, but her unwillingness made the love she had been suppressing in her heart even stronger.

She moved a few steps to stand in front of Lyra, a seductive smile on her face.

"What, can you give him to me for the sake of me being your sister?"

Lyra's eyes darkened again. "If you really love him, fight for him yourself. Don't do those dirty things again."

As soon as she finished speaking, the smile on Alma's face was full of sarcasm and disdain. "Now that you have everything, you can say it so easily. What qualifications do you have to teach me such a lesson?" Lyra's eyes flickered. "Yes, I am indeed not qualified. That's why I have never gone to recognize you."

She turned around and pressed the doorknob. She said slowly, "I can't agree with what the Kensley family taught you. I have no right to interfere with the path of your life. Remember, from now on, we will go our separate ways." The door closed, and there were two worlds divided by the door. Lyra was immediately surrounded by reporters. "Miss Jones, what exactly happened last night? Why did Alma accidentally faint?" "How are the three of you doing now?" The reporters were aggressive, and Lyra tried to rush out, but she was surrounded even more tightly.

"Miss Jones, who exactly is the home-wrecker between you and Alma?" She frowned helplessly. The more she dodged, the more insatiable the reporters became. It was unknown which reporter's microphone directly smashed onto Lyra's head.

With a bang, the microphone fell to the ground. Lyra felt pain and took several steps back. "Get out of the way." The scene became very chaotic. Several bodyguards in black rushed over and protected Lyra into the elevator at the side door. When she was brought to the parking lot, she saw the man sitting in the car.

"Get in the car."

Lyra subconsciously refused. "Otherwise, the reporters would catch up to us." Hank turned his head to the side, the coldness in his eyes extremely cold.

Of course, he was not here for Alma.

Lyra gritted her teeth and opened the car door. With a roar, the car sped out and soon disappeared from the vision of the bodyguards. Keith looked at the time and immediately said, "Guard Alma's ward, and don't let any

media get close to her."

"Yes."

Then, he contacted the Barnwell group's public relations department. In a few minutes, all the news about Alma fainting in the Barnwell family had been removed, as if nothing had happened.

After that, the entire Barnwell group received an order from the president. No employee was allowed to be interviewed by the media, and no one was allowed to reveal Hank's whereabouts in the near future. The worsening situation was contained in a few hours.

When Huaien received the news, he was drinking tea in a restaurant.

"Vice President Barnwell..."

The assistant came to his side and quickly reported the matter.
