Confrontation Half an hour later. In the visiting room at the local police station. Lyra had counted tens of thousands of numbers in her heart before she heard footsteps coming from the corridor. The door

creaked open from outside.

Hank walked in. Behind him was the light from outside, enveloping him.

"You only have ten minutes." After the policeman finished speaking, he closed the door.

The room was very dark. There was only one lamp that reflected Lyra's face. Hank looked over and only felt that her quiet appearance was very dazzling.

It was very likely that she would be detained by the local police, or even detained for a long time.

Why was she not afraid? Was she sure that he would save her?

In just an instant, his eyes were filled with coldness again. He pulled out a chair and sat in front of her.

"Have you thought it through?" "No one will go against money," Lyra said with a smile.

Hank narrowed his eyes. Her tone made him very uncomfortable. He pursed his lips and said, "Now you are no longer qualified to negotiate with me."

Lyra lowered her head and rubbed the cold handcuffs on her wrists under the table. After a long time, she said, "If you lose this S-level project, your position in the Barnwell group will be threatened. As far as I know, your partner, Terry, has been dissatisfied with you for a long time." Hank's expression turned ugly. Lyra looked up and chuckled. "You will earn a lot by fishing an insignificant person like me out of this place in exchange for an opportunity to cooperate with the Opple

Family."

"Other than that, I have another request." "Lyra, you should be the one begging me now!" Hank felt that he was being controlled by her everywhere and was very unhappy. "I have already been ruined by you. It doesn't matter even if I die here now. If you don't agree, you can leave." Lyra blinked indifferently. "Tell me, what conditions?" Hank suppressed his anger.

"You hold a wedding with Alma."

"Is this your condition? If you play tricks with me again, I will make you unable to get out for the rest of your life. Do you believe me?"

"Yes, I do."

"The Barnwell group has a branch company here. I know it very well. I sincerely feel that you are very compatible with Alma. I want to wish you two to be together forever." Separated by the long table, Hank stared at her face. After an unknown period of time, his gaze finally moved away from her. "Or is it that Mr. Barnwell is afraid that I will ruin your wedding again? If your love is as strong as gold, how can you be affected by me?" Lyra muttered. Without saying anything, Hank opened the door and left.

Lyra sat there and took a deep breath.

Her palms were already covered in sweat. Would she win this game? Even if Hank missed the chance to meet Mr. Opple, the Barnwell group would still have other S-level projects. Lyra was gambling, After he revived the Barnwell group, there was nothing he couldn't do.

He had never lost.

Time passed by. Lyra looked at the closed door and her heart beat faster.

If she lost the gamble... With a squeak, the door was pushed open again, and Hank was nowhere to be seen. Two local police officers came, "You can go now."

When Lyra returned to the hotel, the news had already spread.

The missing driver had returned to the police station, saying that this matter had nothing to do with Lyra. He had accidentally cut himself, so he had temporarily abandoned the car and been to the hospital for treatment. With the confession of the person involved, Lyra was naturally acquitted. However, when one thought about it carefully, there were too many strange things. In addition, Lyra had already had a criminal record. As soon as she entered the hotel, everyone walked around her and avoided her.

Except for Liu Yuanyuan.

She stood at the lift door trembling, waiting for Lyra to go over. "Are you okay? They didn't do anything to you, did they?"

"If you are afraid, just stay away from me." Lyra pressed the floor button. Liu Yuanyuan's throat froze. She thought about it carefully and shook her head. "I'm not afraid. I know you were wronged." The lift door closed and slowly rose. Lyra rubbed her fingertips. "It's because I was wronged that you should stay away. Do you understand?"

Liu Yuanyuan was stunned. Seeing her go out, she hurriedly chased after her. "Xu Ya took all your things to her room. Sister Anna also turned a blind eye. Also, Xu Ya's man... is that Nore. He said that he wanted to replace a way to save you, but he never returned to the hotel."

Lyra took out the room card she had always carried with her and swiped the door.

There was no reaction.

"There should be someone living in this room now. Why don't you squeeze with me first?"

Lyra suddenly turned her head, looked at Liu Yuanyuan's careful appearance, and frowned, "You are obviously very afraid of me, why do you insist on sticking to me?" She still had many things to do, and it was really inconvenient to have such a small tail behind. Liu Yuanyuan gritted her teeth, "I have also been schemed against like this before." She knew how lonely Lyra was now, and she also knew that she needed help. "I can't do much. If you need help, you can..." Lyra rubbed her eyebrows. If she didn't let Liu Yuanyuan help, she might follow her all the time. "I need a very eye-catching dress. Can you help me get it?" "I will give it a try!"

Liu Yuanyuan stuffed the spare room card into Lyra's hands, turned around, and ran away. Lyra looked at the room card, put it in her pocket, looked around, and entered the lift. When Nore received Lyra's call, he did not know that she had come out. He had already asked his friends to replace the best lawyer to save her. Lyra stood in the hotel lobby, listening to Nore's voice from the telephone receiver, "Stay where you are. I will go over immediately."

Then, he hung up. Lyra smiled and thanked him. She thought about going to Xu Ya's place to get her phone back. Otherwise, it would be very inconvenient. "Lyra!"

"You are out?" she heard a cry of surprise from behind her.

Alma, who was supported by Elisa, widened her eyes. Her face, which had just been a little red, turned white again from anger.

Lyra did not move. She saw Alma shake off Elisa and take a few steps to the front desk. "How do you do things here? Can this kind of person with a criminal record stay in a hotel? Tell her to get out of here immediately!"

"This guest, don't be agitated. Miss Lyra is no longer staying in our hotel. Her room has been given to the other guests," The staff at the front desk explained.

Alma was still angry. Whenever she saw Lyra, she felt very unlucky. Fortunately, her baby was fine, otherwise...

"Since she doesn't live here, why did you let her in? Let her go!" Alma took a few deep breaths. "I'm here for Hank. Do you want to ask him if he wants to let me go?" Lyra glanced at her.
