Chapter 137 The Wrong Person
Her words made Hank’s face darken. “Alright, Lyra, you are ruthless enough.” “Then go and try and see if you can bring the team back to life.” Hank lowered his voice and said. “You are wrong. I don’t have that much ability, but I will do my best to uncover the truth.” Lyra looked straight at him and said word by word. In Cloud Town, not everything could be controlled by him. One day, there would be a person that he could not manipulate or bribe! Lyra retracted her gaze and turned to leave. Her back fell into the man’s eyes, and it hurt his heart deeply. Keith and President He walked in quickly. “Mr. Barnwell, what should we do? I just received a letter from the lawyer, and Black Horse is so arrogant. Isn’t this a blatant provocation?” “If you had been fair from the beginning, it wouldn’t have been like this.” Hank stood up with a cold face. President He was dumbfounded. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to curry favor with Hank, but it had the opposite effect Seeing that Hank was about to leave with his people, President He immediately chased after him. “Mr. Barnwell, then this matter…” “Mr. Barnwell’s meaning is very clear. He hopes that you will be fair.” “This… Yes, yes, yes, I understand.” President He finally reacted and immediately arranged for someone to reply to the lawyer’s letter. The racing association would definitely cooperate with the investigation. But in this case, it was equivalent to admitting that this was not an accident, and the mastermind must pay the price. In the car, Hank rubbed his eyebrows and was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Alma called “Hank, are you busy today? The magazine cover I shot last time has already come out. I want to show it to you.” She just wanted to know what Hank was doing! “I need to go to the company. I don’t have time.” The man’s eyes darkened. “But…”
Alma still wanted to say more, but the call had already been hung up. She watched as the screen of her phone darkened, and she gritted her teeth in hatred. In the van, Elisa sat next to her and forced a smile to comfort her. “Don’t think too much about it. The person they saw at Crown Hotel might not be Lyra. She is penniless now, and she definitely can’t even enter that hotel.” Elisa thought that if she said this, Alma would feel better.
Unexpectedly, Alma became even more annoyed. “What if Hank invited her? Elisa, did you say that there was something that will make men addicted last time?” she asked anxiously as she looked at her increasingly bloated figure due to her pregnancy. “Yes, but you can’t do that now that you are pregnant,” Elisa said vaguely.
Although Alma had been pregnant recently, she was able to get some advertising resources and her career was also rising. It was all because the investors wanted to curry favor with Hank.
What they were interested in was not Alma’s business ability, but the Barnwell group behind her.
If Alma lost the child in her belly, it would all be over.
“What are you afraid of? The doctor said that it has been three months. As long as I am careful, I can do it.” Moreover, she had tried it with Terry and it was all right.
She could not let Hank feel lonely. She had to fulfill the duty of being a wife.
“Alma, think about it again.”
Elisa was still worried, but Alma had made up her mind. “Hurry up and prepare it for me. I want it tonight.” No matter what, she could not let Lyra take Hank away. On the other side of the line, Hank’s eyes became colder and colder. He had really given Alma too many opportunities. But she would never repent. If not for the fact that she was pregnant with a child, he would never interfere with the matter of the racing association.
Now that Lyra had made things clear, it might not be a bad thing for Hank. “Keith.”
