Chapter 479 The Pain
When the news showed the scene of Ellie being taken away by the police, Lyra was preparing to pack her things and leave the hospital. She had been resting in the hospital for a long time. No matter how Keith had tried to persuade her, she insisted, so he could only compromise, “Miss Jones, now Mr. Barnwell’s house is empty. Do you want to live there?” “No, I’ll go back to the Jones family.”
“I will arrange the car.” Keith nodded slowly.
“Keith, from now on, you don’t need to follow me anymore. Since I said that I want to keep a distance from Hank, you can’t help me anymore.” “But this is Mr. Barnwell’s order.” Keith was so anxious that he was sweating. If Hank found out that he did not do things as requested, how would he explain this in the future?
“Don’t worry. If he blames you, I will bear the responsibility. Oh right, if Huaien wants to find trouble with you, you can take a long leave first.” Keith nodded helplessly. Now that things had turned out this way, he was not in the mood to go back to work. Other than Hank, he would not approve of a second Mr. Barnwell. When Lyra walked out of the hospital, she was alone, carrying a suitcase, looking a little lonely. But every step she took was very firm. The radio in the taxi was broadcasting news about the Barnwell group and the Dingyi Group. The two groups had accidents one after another, and the whole business world was in turmoil for several days. The taxi driver switched the channel in frustration and muttered, “The world of these rich people is really troublesome.” Lyra rolled down the window and looked at the river in the distance. In addition to the project for which Hank was sued, the other projects that the Barnwell group was in charge of also began to have problems one after another. Many partners expressed their doubts about the Barnwell group’s capital. There were even people who wanted to obtain a huge amount of compensation for breaching the contract. The current situation had probably been beyond Huaien’s expectations. He had just wanted to push Hank to the edge of the cliff again, but he also put himself
in a trap. With the label of vice president of the Barnwell group, he just arrived at the door of the company and was blocked by reporters and partners. “When can Hank Barnwell’s case be solved?” “Your Barnwell group’s people are all so untrustworthy. You don’t do things according to the contract. A company like you…” Bang. An egg drew a perfect arc and smashed directly into Huaien’s suit.
Then a group of people swarmed forward. Under the protection of the secretary and bodyguards, Huaien entered the Barnwell group’s hall in a very sorry state.
From afar, Lyra tilted her head and watched this scene.
She pushed down her hat, turned around, and took a taxi to leave. At the same time, Dingyi was also in a mess. It had just returned to the domestic market and had yet to gain a firm foothold. The daughter of the Hunters was in a lawsuit and her reputation was ruined. Even if there was a lawyer to bail her out, the case had been delayed. But the pressure of public opinion had already made Shengkun anxious. Some partners who had originally planned to contact Dingyi began to retreat when they saw this situation.
That afternoon, Lyra came to see Hank again.
But this time, she came by herself.
