Chapter 432 He Called the Police
Huaien leaned on his walking stick, his smile deepening. “Before Old Zhang passed away, he should have met her. She already knew about it, but she didn’t tell you.” He looked like an old schemer, staring at the unprepared Hank, his voice slowly spreading out in the living room, “In the end, her surname is Jones, not Barnwell. She won’t be sincere to you.”
“Shut up!” Hank had already lost his mind. He turned around and shouted at Huaien. “Alright, then I’ll leave first. You two can deal with the rest of the matters by yourselves. But remember, you still have the Barnwell group’s burden on you. There is no need to reject Dingyi’s marriage for the sake of a woman who deceived you. It will not benefit you at all.”
Huaien left in a few steps. Sister Zhang looked at his back and spat. If not for his few words to sow discord, the atmosphere in the living room wouldn’t have been so tense right now. Lyra lowered her head and remained silent. Hank stood up, squatted down again, raised his hand, and put it down again. “Sir, dinner is ready. Why don’t you guys talk while eating?” Sister Zhang asked. Sister Zhang also knew that this suggestion was very inappropriate. But she watched the two of them torture each other and was really worried. She added in a low voice, “Miss Jones just got stimulated and can’t be angry anymore.” She was reminding Hank. The coldness between the man’s eyebrows spread, and his fingers slowly clenched into fists. “You go back first,” he said to Sister Zhang. “But…”
Sister Zhang wanted to stay and take care of Lyra, but Hank did not allow her to argue and directly pulled Lyra upstairs. Sister Zhang had no choice but to lower her head and quietly pack up her things. There were only the two of them left in the entire house. The door was closed by him. Lyra subconsciously took half a step back. She did not want to explain, and there was nothing to explain.
“How did you endure until now?” Hank suddenly turned around and stared at her face. His tone was so cold that Lyra’s heart skipped a beat. She forced herself not to look into his eyes. “I don’t understand what you are saying.” “Then why did you run out just now?” Hank’s voice lost its strength. The coldness in his eyes gradually faded. He walked to Lyra step by step, raised his hand, and grabbed her helplessly and blankly. “Tell me, what he said is all fake. If you say it yourself, I will believe you.” “Tell me the truth,” he said, his voice trembling. “I have nothing to say.” “You heard what Sister Zhang said just now. I can’t be stimulated now. Can you go out? This is my home.” “Yes, of course, I can…” The man’s cold eyes stared at her for a long time. In the end, he released his hand and took a few steps back. “I will investigate it thoroughly. If what he said is true, I will return everything I owe
you.”
He turned around and left. The footsteps quickly disappeared. Lyra pursed her lips and ran to the window. She watched Hank make a phone call as he got into the car and left. Her heart hurt so much that she didn’t know what to do to stop it.
Huaien pinched their most painful scar and tore it open just like that, but she was powerless. Just thinking about Hank’s eyes…
She took out her phone and dialed Nore’s number. “Nore, can you do me another favor?” At the Kensley family. Lachlan had just come back from his business dealings, and his face was full of anger. He heard footsteps outside, and when he looked over, it was Wendy. “What are you doing back here?” “You took so much money from me, and you still have the face to come back?” Lachlan shouted angrily. However, Wendy only smiled awkwardly. She took a few steps forward and knelt in front of Lachlan. “We are husband and wife. You can’t watch me die on the street,
right? Can you lend me some money? Not much, fifty thousand is enough.” “Get lost. I won’t give you a penny.” When something happened to the Kensley family, she was the first person to abandon him.
