Chapter 426 Pretending to Be Innocent
“I heard that a lot of things have happened in your company recently. If you need help, you can ask at any time.” Shengkun directly threw out the bait. This was the confidence of the Dingyi Group. Only absolute capital would have dared to say such words. Anyone else would have probably been very happy and accepted it. However, the person they met was Hank Barnwell.
“Thank you for your concern, Mr. Hunter, but it hasn’t reached that stage yet,” he said with a deep smile. He casually turned down the Hunters’ goodwill. Shengkun started to be confused. “We haven’t returned to the country for a long time. Recently, things have changed a lot. If you have time these days, can you show us around, so that we can understand each other more?” Shengkun snorted softly, holding the cup of tea and not saying a word. Ellie’s heart tightened, and she looked nervously at the man beside her. At this moment, the waiter came over and carried a plate of mango.
“Did you order this?” Mrs. Hunter felt that it was really rude to have such a dish in such a high-end restaurant.
“It must be wrong. I will deal with it.” Ellie immediately said.
However, before she could get up, the waiter smiled and said, “This was given to Mr. Barnwell by another customer. She said she hoped that Mr. Barnwell would succeed in everything.”
Was it Hank’s friend?
The couple looked at each other and did not ask further. But Ellie frowned and did not speak for a long time.
“Ellie, come with me to the bathroom.” Mrs. Hunter could no longer sit still. She stood up and said this.
Ellie nodded obediently and the two of them walked side by side. Lyra saw the opportunity and stood up to follow them.
“Where are you going?” Xuanze stopped her. “I am going for revenge.” Lyra said before she bypassed him and followed them.
Xuanze was frowning and looking in the direction where Hank was sitting. He happened to see a meaningful smile on his face. Even He had known it?
He even let Lyra do as she pleased.
A sense of helplessness struck him. Who was the one who set up the trap between the two of them? In the bathroom, Mrs. Hunter gave Ellie a look. Ellie immediately confirmed that there was no one inside. “Mommy, this matter.”
A crisp slap landed on her face.
