Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit novel Chapter 318

Chapter 318 Nothing to Say

Lyra opened the car door and sat inside. “I’ve been busy all day and haven’t had time to eat yet. Why don’t you accompany me for a midnight snack?” Lyra was about to refuse.

“After that, I will tell you whatever you want to know,” he said.

Lyra clasped her palms with her fingertips and swallowed the words she was about to

say. Half an hour later, the two of them sat in a restaurant. When Lyra saw him order a table of dishes, she could not help but frown. It was just a midnight snack. He chose such a high-end western restaurant and ordered so many dishes. It was really too wasteful.

Hank rolled up his sleeves and slowly cut the steak. His appearance was elegant and handsome, even more charming than the gentleman in the oil painting. It was at that moment that Lyra suddenly realized something. “Terry went to your house.” “Yes.” He looked at the knife and fork in his hand and responded lightly. “Lachlan and Alma have been taken away for investigation. If Terry gets away, this matter will be left unsettled!”

“Yes.”

As Hank moved his lips, he put the cut steak in front of Lyra.

“I’m not hungry.” She also couldn’t eat now.

Only then did Hank put down his knife and fork. He raised his eyes, which were cold, mixed with complicated emotions that could not be seen through.

The atmosphere between the two was particularly heavy.

“This matter involves many people. It is not as simple as you think.” Hank could only say this much. After all, Lyra was not the Barnwell group’s person.

It would take time for her to understand the entanglement.

“What about Alma and Lachlan?” Lyra clenched her fingers and asked after a long while.

“I’m not sure.” “I need to wait for the board meeting to finish, then decide,” Hank said with a frown.

“Didn’t you say that you’re already married to Alma and that you need to protect her? You…” The more agitated she was, the calmer Hank became. After a long time, he said coldly, “Unless you tell me the reason why you protected Alma.” He brought up the past again, his cold eyes stubbornly suffused with coldness. He knew very well what kind of person Lyra was, and it was precisely because of this that he was puzzled.

What exactly was the reason for her to be so biased towards Alma in a few days?

Lyra turned her head away, not saying a word.

This was the first time Hank was so patient. He leaned over slightly and placed his hand on the table. “Didn’t you come to find me just to resolve this matter? But if you don’t say anything, this matter won’t go on.” “Hank, it’s useless even if you force me.” Lyra stood up, looked at him, and said word by word, “You have already registered your marriage. If something happens to Alma and you just stand by and do nothing, can you withstand the pressure of public opinion?” “If the Barnwell group still wants to enter the overseas market, you must be careful. In the past half-year, the Barnwell group has been in a storm. If you continue to make a fuss, the stock price will drop.” Lyra saw through it very clearly. If this situation continued to develop, it would not benefit the Barnwell group at all. Moreover, to Hank, Terry was a ticking time bomb. If it were anyone else, they would have been extremely busy at this time. They would have gone everywhere to rope in their partners, but Hank was so calm and had the mood to ask her about this.
