Chapter 131 Men Were the Same
Lyra never thought that she would meet Huaien here. Listening to his words, it was as if she had been pulled back to more than a year ago. “Thank you for bringing me up,” she said in a low voice. “But, everything in the past is already in the past.” Huaien sighed, “You children…” The elevator door opened, and Lyra rushed out first. Her hatred for Barnwell family would not end with Huaien’s help.
Keith had already received the news and stopped her outside the office in advance. “Miss Jones, Mr. Barnwell is currently receiving guests. Please come with me to the lounge first.”
His words were considered polite. There were many employees around the Barnwell group who were gathered together to watch the show.
“If you feel bored, you can go to my office to have a cup of tea.” Huaien stood behind Lyra and said kindly. The Barnwell group’s employees gathered together and said, “Why is Vice President so good to Lyra? Is it because Mr. Barnwell and Lyra are going to rekindle their old relationship?”
“I saw that many reporters wrote that. Some time ago, Mr. Barnwell was on the street with her…”
Lyra heard these words and her face turned cold. “Keith, get out of the way. I don’t want to make a scene. It will be ugly” Lyra did not give him any face at all.
“Mr. Barnwell is really entertaining guests. It’s useless for you to go in now.” Keith still refused to budge.
“Alright, I’ll go with you to the lounge. Lead the way.” As Lyra said this, she quickly turned and barged into Hank’s office just as Keith was about to head to the lounge. He was really attending a meeting, But this guest was actually Lachlan and his wife. Lyra’s appearance interrupted their conversation, but she ignored Lachlan’s scolding and quietly stared at the man behind the desk.
There were too many things in her eyes.
At the moment when their eyes met, something grew in Hank’s heart. There was a flash of hesitation in his eyes, but his face was still cold. “Keith, what’s going on?” “I’m sorry, Mr. Barnwell.”
Keith immediately stepped forward. This time, he was not the only one who stopped Lyra. Instead, he used the Barnwell group’s bodyguards. She was a woman and could not break free from the three men, so she was pulled
away.
Lachlan was very satisfied with Hank’s actions. He smiled and said, “That’s right. Some women are just pestering. I really don’t know how Drake taught his daughter in the past. What a disgrace.” Wendy lowered her head, not saying a word. Hearing this, Hank coldly curled his lips, “What did President Kensley say just now?”. Even now, he still called Lachlan this way, and his attitude did not change at all. No matter how angry Lachlan was in his heart, he had to endure because of the Barnwell group’s strength. “Just now, I said that you and Alma should have another wedding. Even if you don’t do it, you should take her to your place to live!”
As he spoke, he even touched Wendy. She immediately understood and said with a smile, “Yes, Alma’s body now needs someone to take care of her. Sometimes, it is not good for us as parents to intervene. You and your wife should also nurture your feelings.”
“Didn’t President Kensley say that he wanted to talk about business before he came? Is this what you meant by business?” Hank asked unhappily. He hated it when others took up his work time. Now he knew why Alma always lied and played tricks.
“This is business. Only when Alma is in a good mood and your relationship is better can the cooperation between our two companies last longer!”
Hank’s eyes were cold. He pinched the pen in his hand and suddenly let go.
“Okay, I will think about it. Please go back.” “What are you thinking about? Tell me the address. I will send her over later.” At that moment, Lachlan’s face was full of calculations and false smiles. Was he trying to sell his daughter? “I’ll contact you after I’ve thought it through. I still have a guest. I’ll be leaving first,” Hank said as he slowly got up. “You’re leaving just like that? Are you going to see that woman?” Lachlan shouted
from behind him.
If not for Wendy holding him back, he might have chased him out to argue with Hank.
He actually ignored his suggestion and went to see Lyra? Lachlan felt that he had been slapped in the face and angrily left the Barnwell group. However, Wendy had always been restless. Just now, she and Lyra looked at each other and her heart sank.
