Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71 It Started Again

Lyra’s evaluation was reasonable, and her eyes were not blinded by hatred. She also affirmed the Barnwell group’s mature operation method.

“So. I think that the Barnwell group is still the best choice among the many cooperation candidates. What do you think?” Lyra asked.

“What Miss Jones said is exactly what I thought. I just deliberately kept you in suspense. I didn’t expect you to give me such a big surprise.” Mr. Opple couldn’t help but praise.

“Then I wish you a pleasant cooperation in advance.” Lyra raised her champagne glass.

Mr. Opple also raised his glass at the same time, but after touching it, he did not drink it directly. “Miss Jones, can I ask you a question?” “Please go ahead.”

“Why do you want to help him?”

He was referring to Hank.

Lyra’s eyes darkened as she pushed the champagne glass to the side. “He was my husband. If he falls because of this, I will look down on him.” Moreover, the Barnwell group would fall sooner or later, but it could only fall into her hands.

She wanted to see the high and mighty Hank lose. It was just a cooperative relationship. What she wanted to tell Hank was that she, Lyra, could play the Barnwell group’s future in her hands. Mr. Opple did not understand the meaning. The man behind the curtain heard it clearly. Lyra’s hatred for him had increased, but the current Lyra would not be so reckless as to throw herself into a flame like a moth. She was just waiting for a chance to defeat him in one blow.

Hank rubbed the silver watch on his wrist, and his face was full of coldness.

A few minutes later, Lyra excused herself.

Hank took the opportunity and took the initiative to show up. The two of them had an extremely tacit understanding of each other. After a few chats, Hank cut to the chase and gave Mr. Opple a minimum price that he could not refuse.

“You clearly heard the conversation between me and Miss Jones just now. Why are you still giving me such a low price?” Mr. Opple smiled deeply. “Of course, I don’t want to lose such a good partner like your company. Happy cooperation.”

He raised his glass. The crisp clinking sound reminded him of the night of a business meeting.

Lyra called a few times, but he did not pick up.

At that time, they were not married. The friends around him all envied him for having such a fiancee who cared about him, but only he knew in his heart that Lyra wanted him to attend Drake’s birthday banquet.

How could he go?

From beginning to end, he was using Lyra. There would be no extra feelings between them, absolutely not

The banquet was still going on. In another fifteen minutes, there would be a catwalk performance on the central runway

Lyra looked at the time on her watch, thinking that she should find an opportunity to slip away

Liu Yuanyuan opened her mouth and slowly said, “She cried because of Lyra. Lyra’s quarrel was too fierce.”

“What?”

“Where is Lyra?” Anna was speechless. “She was taken away by Nore and went to the back.” Liu Yuanyuan’s mind was still surrounded by the scene of Lyra cursing just now. She felt she had learned a lot from Lyra.

Alma cried more and more without tears, leaving only a pair of eyes with thick makeup, blinking non-stop. She wanted to cry until Hank came to find her, but after crying for a long time, Hank still did not come over, with only more and more people gathering around. “Alma, let’s go first.” Elisa couldn’t stand it anymore and whispered into Alma’s ear, “Your makeup is all over now. It won’t be good if you get photographed by the reporters.”

The company still had to spend money to change the hot search for her. No, with Alma’s position, even her ugly photos were not qualified to enter the hot search. “Where is Hank?” Alma gnashed her teeth.

——-

“I don’t know. I didn’t see Mr. Barnwell just now. Let’s go first.” Elisa forcefully pulled Alma up.

Alma wiped her tears and had no choice but to follow her.

In the distance, Hank’s figure appeared next to the fence on the second floor. He had just ended his conversation with Mr. Opple when he saw Lyra’s talks reducing Alma to nothing.

Behind him, Keith asked in a low voice, “Mr. Barnwell, the contract has been finalized. When do you want to book the plane ticket?”
