Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit novel Chapter 377

Chapter 377 Unexpected News

In the next half an hour, they bombarded Lyra with questions, from her family background to her academic career. However, apart from her parents who were not alive, Lyra was good at everything. When she heard that she, a woman, was actually running an investment company, Old Lady Forrest looked at her with eyes that could hardly hide her appreciation. She even asked in front of Xuanze, “Miss Jones, your condition is so good, why did you choose him? He has a five-year-old child.” The patience between Xuanze’s eyebrows was almost worn out. “It’s too rude of you to ask this.” Lyra gave him a reassuring look, then smiled at Old Lady Forrest and said, “My conditions are not so good. After all, I am a divorced woman.” She spoke about this matter so calmly and looked calm. Xuanze clenched his fists. Ni’er also felt that the atmosphere was very awkward and hid beside Lyra. “So you are divorced. No wonder, then the two of you are really a good match. Like | said, if she was a miss of a rich family, how could she like him?” Their attitude towards Lyra changed in an instant. Moreover, their eyes were filled with disdain and disgust. They were completely different from when they exchanged business cards with Lyra just now. “Don’t go too far.” Xuanze’s face darkened. “What’s wrong? She said it herself. That’s right. She clearly knows that she has shortcomings. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be with a widower like you who has a child.” The more they said, the more cunning they became. Ni’er shrank back and buried her head behind Lyra’s arm. “Be good, Ni’er. Don’t be afraid. Go back to your room and play with the building blocks

for a while. I’ll go up to you in a while, okay?” Ni’er thought about it for a long time before slowly nodding her head. “Auntie Jones, don’t go,” she said as she pulled on Lyra’s sleeve tightly. “Okay, I won’t go.”

omforted the child and handed Ni’er to the nanny.

Seeing the child walk up the stairs, the coldness on Xuanze’s face became stronger. After Ni’er went upstairs, his first reaction was to take Lyra away. “So much for today.”

He really did not want these people to run amok in his house. “It doesn’t matter.” Lyra shook her head. Xuanze’s heart tightened. “But…” “I am a divorced woman. You do have a child with you. There is nothing to hide.” At that moment, Xuanze understood what Lyra had not said. In any case, this was just a show.

What did it matter if it were true or not? To her, the accusations and discussions of these strangers were nothing at all. A hint of regret flashed through Xuanze’s usually deep eyes.

Unfortunately, it was just a show.

Lyra turned around and looked at those people. “Everyone, do you still have any questions?”

Her natural and unrestrained manner revealed the schemes of those people.

Xuanze called out to her. “What’s wrong?” she asked, turning around. “Did you read the news this morning?” the man asked slowly. He wasn’t sure if she knew about this, or if she didn’t want to talk about it and had deliberately avoided it. “No, I forgot to charge my phone. It has been automatically turned off.” “Fortunately, I didn’t delay your business,” Lyra said with a smile. Xuanze’s eyes flashed with a bit of restraint. He took a few steps forward and handed his phone over. “I think you should look at today’s news first.”

He didn’t want to take advantage of her when she was in a difficult situation.

Lyra took his phone and clicked on the main page of the news. She had only read a few lines when her palms turned cold. “How could it be…”

She desperately slid down, but there was still no news of the ship. “At present, the police have already sent out rescue teams, but the search area is too wide, making it too difficult to complete the task.” “If there are no signs of survival in the next three hours, I’m afraid the situation is not optimistic.” Lyra’s heart was beating so hard that it almost jumped out of her chest. She tried to hide her panic, but it was useless. Seeing her trembling and almost falling down, Xuanze went over to support her in time. “Sometimes, no news is the best news. I’ll help you charge your phone first. After that, where do you want to go? I’ll send you there.” Lyra tried hard to calm down. Her voice trembled uncontrollably. “Thank you.” The two people who were very important to her were both on that ship. Even the heavens were unwilling to give them a good ending?
