Chapter 197 See Through
As soon as she finished speaking, the Barnwell group’s several managers also looked over. They hoped that Hank could retract his order, or else if the board of directors found out about this change, it would cause a huge commotion again. Under their expectant gazes, Hank slowly said, “You are right. Doing this will indeed affect the final benefits.”
The eyes of the managers lit up. There was a chance!
“Director Jones is really wise.”
“Yes, yes, yes…” However, no matter how much they tried to flatter her, Lyra did not react at all. She just looked at Hank and said calmly, “You know that it will affect the profits, but you still insist on doing this, right?” The man’s lips curled into an arc.
Unexpectedly, among these people, the one who understood his thoughts the most was actually Lyra.
“Yes,” Hank said lightly.
The hopes that the managers had burned with great difficulty were extinguished in that instant.
They did not have the confidence to make Hank change his mind, and Hank’s thoughts were not easy to guess.
Lyra turned her head and met his gaze. There was still some uncertainty in her eyes. “Can I know the reason?” Since Hank allowed her to appear in this meeting, it meant that he had tacitly agreed that she could intervene. She waited for a long time, but he did not respond. When Lyra was about to give up, the man said, “Look at the cooperation case between the Barnwell group and Cosmos Group two years ago. You will understand.” Lyra did not hesitate and directly wrote it down. “Continue.” Hank did not waste any more time here. “The next report is related…” Several managers hurriedly adjusted their states. The meeting continued for nearly half an hour. Lyra had been writing and drawing on her little notebook. “Let’s stop here today.”
Her wrist was already a little sore from writing. I
“Then Mr. Barnwell, you have a good rest. We will leave first.” Several managers got up and left.
As soon as they went out, they directly gathered together and kept gossiping. “What’s going on? Mr. Barnwell and his ex-wife seem to have a tacit understanding!” “And she actually lives in Mr. Barnwell’s house!” “Be quiet. This matter must not be revealed to the company. Do you understand?” “Yes, yes, yes. Manager Liu, of course, we will keep a secret.” As soon as they walked out of the villa, Jasper’s car drove in. He turned his head to look at the managers of the Barnwell group and frowned. “Why are they smiling so strangely?” Then, he carried the medicine and fruits into Hank’s villa and saw a very special scene. Lyra held something in her hand and argued with Hank with a red face. Hank had a smile in his eyes as he let her shout at him. Jasper raised his hand and rubbed his eyes. He must have seen wrongly!
Was this person Hank?
“Hank, you lied to me. You are a hypocrite who goes back on your word.” Hank did not say a word ,
Jasper gasped. He could now confirm that it was not him who had an illusion, but Hank who had gone crazy. Normally, how could he be questioned in this way? . He would make the person who questioned him disappear without a trace. “Hank, are you feeling better?” Jasper coughed and walked over. Lyra snorted and angrily went upstairs to the room. She had already been a servant for him for a day, but he still refused to let her go!
This was oppression, a threat.
Lyra sat on the sofa, thinking about how to get away. In the living room, after she left, Hank’s cold face revealed an extremely threatening chill. “What did the Williams family say?” Jasper shook his head. After putting down the things, he sat down on the other side. Wencheng’s attitude is not bad. He has always said that he will take responsibility for your injury, but Hanyu….” Jasper paused for a moment, then continued, “This morning, he just came home from the bar. It seems that he didn’t take this matter to heart at all.”
“Who did he drink with last night?” Hank narrowed his eyes and looked up at the closed door upstairs.
“It seems to be a few rich second generations in their circle. I don’t know much about them.” After saying that, Jasper realized that Hank’s expression was not right. “Are you saying that someone is behind this?” Hank did not speak.
“When I sent you out of the hospital, I seemed to see a car from your company parked nearby. Whose car was it?” Jasper asked. The more he thought about it, the more he could not figure it out.
“If it was someone from inside the Barnwell group, it would make sense,” Hank said in a deep voice.
