Chapter 109 Struggle
Hank looked at her. A complicated emotion flashed past his eyes. A few seconds later, he said disdainfully, “Is there anything on your body that I haven’t seen before?” “Shameless!”
Lyra put on her clothes as fast as she could and stared at the man in front of her vigilantly. “Don’t disturb the patient’s rest,” the nurse chased after him. Hank ignored the nurse and fixed his eyes on Lyra. There was only one thing hovering in his mind. She was fine, still alive, and had the strength to scold him. Realizing this, his eyes became colder and colder. His cold pupils reflected Lyra’s annoyed face. Even though she was angry, her face was still stunning and beautiful. “Miss Jones, do you know this person? If necessary, I can call the security department of the hospital over.” The nurse was very responsible and asked directly. “I know him,” Lyra took a deep breath. The nurse looked at Hank a few more times before closing the door and leaving. Lyra frowned and stared at him. “You didn’t humiliate me on the street enough. Now you want to chase me to the hospital? The Barnwell group is really going to close down. You are so idle.”
There was a voice in her heart telling her that maybe Hank didn’t really want to hurt her.
He didn’t really do it at that time. But as soon as this thought came out, it was buried by Lyra’s hatred. At this moment, she almost lost half her life. It was all thanks to this man. If Nore had not come in time, what kind of situation would she be in now! In a flash, Lyra’s face was full of hatred. “The Barnwell group will not fall.” Hank slowly walked to the window and stared at the night scene outside with a pair of cold eyes. He had enough confidence to say this. Now that he looked down from here, the tallest buildings of Cloud Town were all the Barnwell group’s property.
a clutched the sheets,
ainst him all the time.
“Who did this to you?” From his tone, Lyra could not tell his intentions.
She frowned and did not speak. “Alma?”
The man spat out the name with no emotion.
Lyra’s heart jumped. She understood. He was here to test herself. Did she know that the person behind the scenes was Alma? If she revealed her trump card, wouldn’t she be silenced on the spot? Hank, in order to protect your girlfriend and child, you really put in a lot of effort. “I don’t know.” Lyra chuckled.
There was no longer any light in her eyes. She could also look at Hank without any emotion. Even her hatred had disappeared. “You don’t know?” Obviously, he didn’t believe her words. “Don’t worry, Mr. Barnwell. I won’t die for a while. A scum like you lives in the world. How can I die?” Lyra gnashed her teeth in hatred.
“You…”
Hank clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes shone with a cold light. Lyra was not afraid at all. She raised her neck and met his gaze. “Moreover, so what if Alma did it? Do you feel sad that the person she found did not kill me? Do you want to personally come over and kill me?” “Lyra, can you speak properly?” Hank was a little angry. He had come all the way here not to quarrel with her. Looking at the guardedness and alienation on her face, he felt a sense of defeat that he had never felt before. When he met Lyra’s gaze, his throat was choked up again, and he could not say
anything. But at this moment, his expression that was different from usual was no longer meaningful in Lyra’s eyes. She took a deep breath and suppressed her previous emotions. “Now, can I invite you out? Mr. Barnwell.” She stared straight at Hank.
Her words were as cold as ice.
Hank’s eyes were full of anger. For the last time, he patiently said, “If it’s her, then …” However, before he could finish speaking, the door opened from outside. “Lyra, your favorite steamed fish. Eat.” Nore held the food in his hands.
