Chapter 397 She Pretended Not to Care
Hank immediately asked Keith to investigate, and soon, there was a result.
“Mr. Barnwell, the situation is true. Miss Jones and Miss Kensley have indeed cooperated with the LKD magazine. Moreover, as the designer, Miss Jones will appear, and Miss Kensley will be the cover model for the magazine.”
“The strange thing is that according to the rules of the entertainment industry, Miss Kensley does not seem to be qualified, but she was appointed as the cover model of their magazine for the next quarter. There should be capital behind this.” In the few sentences, the ins and outs of this matter had been made very clear. Hank turned to look at the fallen leaves outside the window. The side profile of his face was angular, and his thin lips slowly closed. “Contact the person in charge of LKD and find out who Alma used to get there. In addition, why did they choose Lyra?” Didn’t she want the Jones Group to get engaged in investment? Why did she want to become a designer? Hank felt his head hurt even more. Why was it that the more he wanted to get close to Lyra, the more he felt that he didn’t understand her?
This kind of tangled mood made him suffer.
When Keith heard this, he was also a little stunned. Was his president concerned about Alma or Lyra? Why did he want to investigate both of them? “What are you standing there for? Go quickly!” “Yes, Mr. Barnwell. Also, there is one more thing. There are some problems with Yuanpeng’s cooperation case. Mr. Evans wants to meet you and talk.” “Ask him to come to the hospital and tell him that I’m in poor health,” Hank said coldly. “… Yes.”
Others might not know, but Keith was the one who handled Hank’s hospitalization procedures. He didn’t even have a slight cold.
Keith quietly left the ward and relayed the instructions of his president. He also found a very reliable private detective to secretly inquire about the relationship between Alma and Lyra and the magazine. Then, several media companies that Hank had secretly instructed began to play their love cards at the same time.
The headlines of the news were also more eye-catching.
But for some reason, at this moment, he seemed to have understood Lyra’s anticipation and envy back then. “Then does she need my help?” Hank sighed slowly. “Brat, you finally understand!” Jasper’s eyes lit up. But for the next second, both of them fell into a daze at the same time. What was the use of Hank being enlightened without Lyra accepting him? For the next few days, Lyra was busy with the design studio, and she even rarely went to the Jones Group. All the business of the company was entrusted to the professional management team to be responsible. Only when some important things arose would she go to the meeting to talk about them. She had been so devoted to the design because she needed time to consume energy so that she would not be idle enough to care about the news outside. For example, the Barnwell group, and Alma. She really wanted to live a good life for herself. The phone rang again. She originally did not want to answer it, but when she saw that it was Nore, she pressed the answer button. “Something happened to the Barnwell group?” Nore had just finished a meeting outside and was so busy that he did not care about the news over there. “Yes,” Lyra responded casually and pressed the lift button. The cutting knife in her hand moved slowly, making a rustling sound. “It’s just that Terry left. How could it have such a big impact on the Barnwell group? Even my dad told me that many companies are going to terminate their contract with the Barnwell group recently. In addition, there is a problem with the money chain. This time, Hank won’t be unable to turn over.” Although he did not have a good impression of Hank, he had to admit that Hank was enough to represent Cloud Town’s business authority during a certain period. If his company fell, the entire market would have to be re-shuffled. At that time, it would not just be chaos. Moreover, as long as the Barnwell group existed, some small companies that were not popular would be squeezed out of the market. This was also the reason why the Barnwell group had always been supported by the foundation. “Lyra, are you still listening?” “Mm…”
Lyra responded, and with a slash of her hand, the blade stabbed into her fingertips.
She threw the blade in pain, and as she watched the blood spill out, the surging pain in her heart surged up again. “Nore, I don’t want to mention him. Is there anything else?” “… No more.” On the other side, Nore gripped his phone and his fingers tightened. “Lyra…”
Before he could finish speaking, the call had already ended. The disconnection sound was so urgent, just like how Lyra was in a hurry to escape at this time. She was flustered and helpless.
