Chapter 430 To Stake Everything on Her
“Ah!”
Lyra screamed. She never thought that Javier would be so rotten. However, just as she was struggling to resist, the door was opened. Just as Javier raised his head to look, a figure flashed in from outside the door. He rushed directly in front of him, grabbed his collar, and fiercely smashed his fist down. Again and again, Hank seemed to have lost his mind, as if he had gone crazy. If not for Keith, who was following behind him, stopping him in time, Javier would have lost his life here. “Mr. Barnwell, he has already fainted. Should we look at Miss Jones first?” Hank turned around and stared at the woman who was helped up by Sister Zhang. If he hadn’t come over just in time if he had been a little late… “You were the only one at home, and you still dared to open the door for him?” His voice was extremely cold.
She had always been astute and vigilant, so how could she have made such a low-level mistake?
Sister Zhang put her arm around Lyra’s shoulder and felt that her whole body was shaking, and her body temperature was frighteningly cold. “Sir, let’s talk about it later. Do you want to find a doctor to take a look?” Sister Zhang was very worried about Lyra’s condition. After all, anyone who had encountered such a thing would have been frightened. “Stay with her. Keith, Follow me.” Hank gripped the car keys tightly.
“Yes, Mr. Barnwell.” Lyra watched as the unconscious Javier was dragged out by Keith. She slowly closed her eyes. She kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm herself down, but her legs still lacked strength. “It doesn’t matter. Take your time. Why don’t I pour you a glass of warm milk first?” Sister Zhang had followed Hank in just now. The small cart in her hand was filled with fresh ingredients and fruits. She settled Lyra on the sofa and went into the kitchen to pour milk while saying, “Sir was worried that you would be alone at home and no one would cook for you, so he asked me to come and take care of you for a while. I didn’t expect that it would be such a coincidence.”
Lyra was stunned and lowered her head. She had indeed been careless today and thought that she could seize the opportunity to get some evidence from Javier and had let him enter the house.
She regretted it.
But it was too late.
If Hank hadn’t come in time, if he didn’t know the Jones family’s password… Lyra didn’t dare to think about the consequences.
Perhaps, she would really be overwhelmed by mental pressure and become the second Nina.
All of a sudden, her panicked eyes slowly calmed down. Resisting the injuries on her body, she got up and picked up the phone. However, it had already been crushed by Javier and could no longer be used. “Miss Jones, why are you up?” Sister Zhang quickly cảme over to support her. “Sister Zhang, lend me your phone.” After she spoke, she realized that her voice was trembling. “Okay, okay, okay.” Sister Zhang quickly handed the phone over. Seeing that Lyra’s face was still pale, she sighed worriedly. Lyra pressed the number and moved the phone to her ear.
The moment the call connected, it was the man’s cold and anxious voice. “What happened to her?”
If not for Lyra, Sister Zhang would definitely not have called him.
Lyra understood his anxious feelings. A complicated emotion spread in her heart. She held the phone and whispered, “It’s me.”
The man on the other side paused and sighed.
“What is it?”
Lyra lowered her eyes. “Thank you.” She knew that the weight of the two words was not heavy enough, but at this moment, she just wanted to say this to him personally. Also, “Javier’s phone is still here. There should be a lot of evidence inside. Don’t… Don’t hit him too hard. If he prosecutes you, it will be too troublesome.”
