Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317 Be on Guard After leaving the court, Lyra directly took a taxi back to the Jones family, ignoring the messy paint that was still splashed at the door. She locked the door and stayed in the room alone. It was unexpected that Hank came to ask her questions. She thought that she did it flawlessly, but she never thought that these plans were just a small trick in his eyes.

Lyra panicked in her heart.

What if Hank found out about Uncle Zhang again and found out the real reason for that incident? What should she do?

Just as she was thinking about this, Nore came. “Lyra, why did you lock the door?” Nore asked with a frown as he watched her open the door handle. “It’s safer this way.” As Lyra spoke, her lips twitched. Nore sighed silently in his heart. “Why are you looking for me?” Lyra asked casually as she walked inside. “I got you something to eat. It’s roast duck.” Nore was holding a big bag in his hand, emitting a faint fragrance. Lyra’s eyes flashed, and she revealed a smile. “You’re the best. I’m just hungry!”

However, Nore only responded with a hum. He could not say that the person who really understood her was not himself.

Instead, it was the man who controlled the whole situation from behind. Lyra was enjoying her meal. Nore was sitting opposite her. Seeing that she had almost finished eating, he slowly said, “I found a few friends in the lawyer circle. They all said that you can’t drag this case on. You have to close the case as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome.”

Lyra put down her chopsticks and was a little worried.

“But the Barnwell group is too slow. Terry has not been officially prosecuted now. I am afraid that he will lay his hands on Alma and the child.” People like Terry thought highly of themselves and hated Hank very much. Once he got out of the lawsuit, he would definitely seek revenge. Nore frowned.

“Lyra, you said that you have to work hard to live and let the Jones family rise again. But look at you now. You have worked hard for Alma. Has she cared about your life?” He suddenly raised his tone. Lyra froze and lowered her head. “I know you suddenly found your sister. You want to be good to her and make up for her, but you… should also consider the person who cares about you, right?” Nore really could not bear to see her fall into the abyss and torture herself like this. He picked up his coat, got up and left. Out of the Jones family’s door, he punched the steering wheel. He lost control. He couldn’t help but say those angry words before he could even figure out Lyra’s next step. He was extremely vexed. He forcefully pulled his hair a few times, stepped on the accelerator, and headed straight for the Barnwell group. That night, the Barnwell group announced the official prosecution of Terry. Even Alma and Lachlan were within the scope of prosecution. Alma was still sleeping at home when she was forcefully taken away. “You can’t do this to me. Hank won’t let you off! I am the madam of your Barnwell group!” she shouted angrily. “This is Mr. Barnwell’s order. Please cooperate.”

Alma was brought into the car in a daze, her mind completely blank. “Hank won’t do this to me. He has already registered marriage with me. Even if he doesn’t care about me, he has to take care of our child! I want to see Hank!” Alma’s voice was trembling. “Mr. Barnwell has already gone on a business trip.” The man only said this before closing the door. The car drove into the night, and Alma was like a frozen lake.

When she was brought to the interrogation room and saw her father Lachlan sitting inside, Alma immediately took a few steps forward. “Dad, what is going on?”

Unexpectedly, when Lachlan saw her, he gave her a hard slap. “It’s all your fault!”

“You insist on marrying Hank, but you can’t control him. Now everyone in the city is looking at our Kensley family as a joke. That kid is clearly going to kick us away.” He actually didn’t even give any face and really went through the law procedure. “No!” Alma’s face was burning with pain. She looked at Lachlan blankly and shook her head.

“Hank won’t do that to me.” Lachlan cursed and was brought into another room. Alma walked forward in a daze. Suddenly, her legs went soft and she sat on the ground. She raised her head, her eyes hazy with tears. “I want to see Hank. Before ! see him, I won’t say anything.” “But, Mr. Barnwell won’t see you.” Alma’s tears fell again. “After all, she is the Barnwell family’s daughter-in-law. What do you think you’re doing?” a stern and cold voice sounded from behind.
