Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit
Chapter 57

Saving the Drowning Person

"Hank, what's wrong?" Alma reached out to pull him. His fingers were so cold that it scared her and she instinctively withdrew her hand. "Nothing. You should rest. I still have something to do." Hank said and was about to leave. Behind him, Alma mustered up her courage and asked, "Are you going to look for Lyra?"

A long time ago, he had told Alma that he had a grudge against the Jones family and that marrying Lyra was just for revenge.

But why did she insist that he liked Lyra?

A woman's sixth sense was really ridiculous.

"I won't allow you to go." Alma frowned, "That Lyra is already dirty. You may not know that she has entered Brook Villa again."

She muttered, "Moreover, she owes usury. It is said that she was almost thrown into the sea."

"How do you know all this?"

Hank's voice was thick and sharp. He turned to face her and walked over step by step. "I clearly told you to mind your own business. Do you take my words as nothing?" Why did she always repeat the same mistake?

He had already given Alma enough opportunities.

"No... no, Hank, I heard about it. You used to be husband and wife, and when my friends heard something, they told me about it." Alma found a reason at the last minute.

"They are all my friends in the entertainment industry. If you don't believe me, look at the chat record!"

She was sure that Hank would not read it. The man's eyes were like an abyss. After a long time, he said, "Next time, don't do this kind of thing again." For the sake of the baby in her belly, he gave her another chance.

For the last time.

Alma thought that he believed her words and immediately put on an obedient smile, "II understand. Hank, let's have breakfast together tomorrow morning, okay?" She was angry in her heart, but she also knew that she would not be able to keep him tonight.

Hank looked away, closed the door, and left.

Lyra slept for a few hours and opened her eyes. Her stomach was rumbling with hunger. She remembered that the hotel music restaurant provided free food tickets. She went downstairs and unexpectedly found that the night view of this hotel was particularly good, plus wonderful music. Lyra was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief when facing the sea breeze. "Miss, I'm sorry. May I ask how to go to this place?" A blond man with blue eyes asked politely in a foreign language. Lyra leaned over and looked at the map in his hand. On the way here, she happened to see this building.

"From..."

From afar, Hank could only see her back and a foreign man standing side by side with her on the beach with a smile on his face. Perhaps Alma's words weren't just a groundless guess.

He had indeed seen with his own eyes that Lyra had a close relationship with many men. She had only been here for a few hours, and she was already so impatient? Hank frowned in annoyance. Keith carried a tray over and continued to report to Hank about the work tomorrow.

However, Hank was unexpectedly somewhat absent-minded.

"Mr. Barnwell, do you want to rest first?" Hank watched as the man left. Lyra remained where he was and his furrowed brows relaxed a little Keith followed Hank's line of sight and did not disturb him again. He quietly retreated.

Lyra leaned against the edge of the fence and ate a little. She felt that someone was watching her from behind. When she turned around, there was no one.

"That's strange."

Just as she was pondering, someone shouted from afar. "Help! Can anyone swim? There's someone in the sea over there..."

The voice was very loud, and almost everyone in the dining area went out.

"Do you know how to swim?" the woman asked. Without waiting for Lyra to speak, she dragged her to the beach. "Keith, let's go take a look." Hank tightened his grip on his coffee cup. "Yes, Mr. Barnwell."

In the distance, there was indeed a person struggling. However, when Lyra heard this person's tone, it was as if she wanted her to jump into the sea immediately.

She looked at the surrounding environment and shook her head. "I am not a good swimmer. You can go in and replace a professional lifeguard." "How can I make it in time?" "Aren't you afraid of karma if you don't save a drowning person?" Lyra frowned.

Karma?

If there really was such a thing in this world, some people would have already been retributed

She shook her head, turned her head, and walked towards the dining table. Unexpectedly, the woman grabbed her and refused to let go, "Hurry up and go..."

Plop.

The woman seemed to have lost her balance and entered the sea. Fortunately, this place was not deep.

The woman was in a sorry state and her skirt was stuck to her body. She glared at Lyra and cursed.

"You are too ruthless. No wonder your husband doesn't want you!"

Lyra frowned. Why did she mention Hank all of a sudden? What bad luck.

At this time, there were more and more people surrounding them. Keith looked at the situation and his eyes stopped on the woman. Then he turned around and went to the dining table. Finally, a nearby lifeguard jumped down and saved the person in the sea. Then, Lyra and the woman were surrounded by the crowd.

The woman suddenly screamed and accused Lyra, "She obviously knows how to swim, but she didn't make a move and pushed me into the sea. She is really vicious!" Lyra listened quietly and did not refute. Just now, they were far away from the crowd. Other than her, no one knew how this woman fell. She couldn't explain. "How could this be?"

"Too heartless. Which company's employee is she?" "Let's take a photo and post it online."

Lyra chuckled and walked towards the woman.

"What are you doing? Do you want to kill me in front of so many people?" The woman was terrified. She didn't dare to look Lyra in the eye, because the look in Lyra's eyes was really like a bottomless hole. It was not a look that a normal person would have.

The vast sea behind her became her backdrop.

"You know who I am. Just now, you deliberately ran over and asked me to jump into the sea, right?"
