Chapter 440 Congratulations
Feng carefully looked at Lyra’s expression. “If you really don’t know, then pretend that I didn’t ask anything. The police have no right to interfere with your personal freedom. However, if you are threatened or if you encounter any accident, please believe the police.”
“Thank you, Officer Priestley. Then, can I know why you are looking for me?” Lyra nodded.
Feng was about to speak when a police officer ran over. “Captain Priestley, Hank Barnwell’s lawyer has arrived at the police station. Shall we go now?” Just as Feng was about to respond, he looked at Lyra and hesitated. “Miss Jones, if you have time, I think it would be better for you to come as well.” “About Hank and Ellie?” “Yes.”
“Sorry, Officer Priestley, I don’t have time.” Lyra pushed open the car door and left without looking back. She walked faster and faster. The matter between the two of them had nothing to do with her. She took a taxi across the street and returned to the Jones family. In the police car, Feng ordered the police officer, “Send two plainclothes to protect her 24 hours a day. I suspect that someone is secretly plotting something.” “Captain Priestley, was Hank Barnwell wronged? After all, a man of his status can have any kind of woman he wants. There is no need to use such despicable means.” “Go back and copy the police officer’s code of conduct.” Feng’s eyes darkened. “Yes, sir!” Due to the Barnwell group’s active control, the news about Hank and Ellie did not spread all over the city. This made Ellie very angry. “Mommy, can’t you think of something? Hank won’t compromise just because of such a small wave. It wasn’t easy for me to have reached this stage. I can’t let all my efforts go to waste.” “Okay, I will go and urge them again, but you have to be careful in front of the police. Don’t reveal any flaws.” “I know, Mommy. I have already found someone to make a fake certificate. As long as I am pregnant, I am not afraid…”.
Bang. As the mother and daughter were talking, the door was pushed open. The reporters outside the door were all holding cameras as they rushed forward. “Miss Hunter, were you really being forced?” “Miss Hunter, things have already come to this. It seems that Mr. Barnwell will not be responsible for you. What are you going to do?” “Wasn’t this a marriage that the two groups have agreed on?” One question after another forced the mother and daughter into a corner. “What’s going on? How did you get in? Stop filming.” Mrs. Hunter had no choice but to cover Ellie’s face with her hands. In the end, the two were forced into the bathroom and did not dare to go out.
Mrs. Hunter was extremely angry.
She called the receptionist. “What’s wrong with you guys? You actually allowed reporters to enter our room? Immediately send someone to deal with it. I want to file a complaint against you guys.” “Mrs. Hunter, our hotel was officially purchased by the Barnwell group last night. Those reporters were all sent upstairs by Mr. Barnwell. He also asked us to tell you that this matter will definitely be investigated thoroughly. We will definitely not let Miss Hunter’s reputation be damaged.” “What?”
Mrs. Hunter was so angry that she saw stars in her eyes.
If not for Ellie supporting her from the side, she would have definitely fallen to the ground.
“Mommy, be careful.” “Get lost!” Mrs. Hunter threw her phone away, completely unaware that the phone was still connected. “If you weren’t so stupid and couldn’t even do such a small thing, would you have become like this? Now, the entire family’s face has been ruined by you.”
“I was very careful. Even if he went to check the blood now, he wouldn’t be able to find anything.”
