Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 566

Chapter 566 She Was Most Important

Originally, Hank had a cold personality, and now with his sharp eyes, it was even more shocking.

Huaien was so angry that his face was livid. However, his body and momentum made him unable to

fight back. He could only watch Hank leave with Lyra. He was left in the private room and was

besieged by the directors. “If you can’t repay the money today, don’t even think about walking out of

this door!”

Lyra stood on the steps of the door.

When she saw the familiar figure walk out, she walked over with a few steps. She raised her flat shoes

slightly and hooked her hands around the man’s waist. “Why did you come out so late? I have been

waiting…” Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

But before she could finish speaking, her lips were kissed by Hank. Without any warning, his hand was

around her neck, and their breaths intertwined in the middle of the night.

It was only when her hand hit the man’s shoulder a few times that his palm carried a hot temperature

and held her in his arms. Without waiting for Lyra to say anything, he pressed his forehead against her

neck, leaned against her, and whispered, “I really don’t want to get to this point.” He had endured

hatred and loneliness until now. If he hadn’t been forced into this situation, he wouldn’t have been

forced to give Huaien a fatal blow. “You are already very tired. Let’s go home.” Lyra did not express her

opinion. She just quietly held his hand and clasped their fingers together. All she could give him was

silent support and tolerance. No matter what happened, she would not leave him alone.

He grunted.

It could be heard that he was in a very bad mood. After returning to the Barnwell family, he returned to

his room without eating anything. “Is sir alright?” Sister Zhang asked softly. “I’m not sure,” Lyra shook

her head.

She had thought that Hank would be tormented, but she had not expected him to be in such a state of

grief. “The porridge in the pot…”

“I’ll take it upstairs.” Lyra turned around and went into the kitchen. A few minutes later, she stood at the

door of the room and looked at the man who was sitting on the sofa reading the contract. His profile

was extremely cold and serious. He was talking coldly to Keith through audio. “The cooperation case of

the JO Group must not be passed.”

“The plan for the next quarter must be handed over as soon as possible. It will take at most two days.”

“Tell Manager Zhang that above Grade A…” Lyra did not dare to disturb him. She quietly went around

the other side of the desk. She remembered that there had been several old photos of the Barnwell

family’s elders in that corner, but now, they had all been removed. She felt very uncomfortable. There

was no pleasure in the victory, but only pain. They hadn’t done anything wrong, but they had to be

tortured. “For now.”

Hank took off his Bluetooth headset, loosened his hand to the side, and the contract and documents

fell on the round table. He had been really focused and had not even noticed that Lyra had already

come in. She went behind the sofa and was about to reach out to massage his shoulder, but her wrist

was grabbed by him. Then, Hank suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of vigilance. Lyra

was in pain. “It’s me,” she said with a smile on her face. Hank looked at her in a daze, and the stern

look in his cold eyes gradually faded away. “Sorry, I may be too tired,” he said softly. After he returned

from XD Restaurant, he only wanted to put himself to work. Only in this way could he control his

thoughts and not let his imagination run wild. “It doesn’t matter.” Lyra smiled and massaged his

temples. Then, she slowly moved down and landed on his shoulder. She slowly helped him relax.

“Have you ever thought about why Qiao Lin would tell me about Terry’s whereabouts?” Lyra sighed.

“Actually, before this, I had also thought about whether Huaien and Terry had colluded and swallowed

that sum of money.” After all, that amount was enough to move people’s hearts. However, Qiao Lin had

sent a message to Lyra two days in advance, telling her where

Terry was overseas. Lyra had told Hank about this matter, and the two of them had had such a plan.

“He clearly knew that we would make a move against Huaien. Was he doing this to make you soft-

hearted?”

There were some things in which the more they avoided, the more harm they would cause. Lyra did not

want to compromise for a moment and make him regret it in the future. “Tonight, Huaien went to the

banquet alone. He should have brought Qiao Lin along.”

The more Lyra spoke, the deeper her voice became. Hank bit his lips and teeth. After a long time, he

said in a deep voice, “The news that Officer Priestley gave me tonight is that Qiao Lin has been out of

contact.” He was already the third person beside Huaien who had gone missing. Qin Xiaoxiao, Terry,

and now it was Qiao Lin. “Maybe Qiao Lin had sensed something and chose to spread the news, but it

still could not change the result,” Hank said in a deep voice. “Don’t worry about me. I know what I’m

doing.” He had never easily revealed his thoughts to others. “I understand what I’m doing. I won’t regret

it either,” he said. “If he had admitted it tonight and lowered his head, would you have changed your

mind?”

He would have once again shown mercy and given Huaien a chance to change his ways.

“Yes.”

Hank sighed again.

In the next second, the strength Lyra exerted on his shoulder suddenly increased.

“The Hank I know is not like you.” As she spoke, she took a deep breath and said, “What should come

will come. Even if you keep tolerating it, one day, Huaien’s ambition will not be hidden.”.

Indeed.

He was just reluctant to face this fact. Whether it was in the past or now, family meant different things

to him. Even Lyra could not completely understand it. However, there was one thing that was beyond

doubt. She would always stand by his side.

“It’s too late. I should go to sleep.” Lyra whispered into his ear, her voice soft and

gentle, “Mr. Barnwell, do you still want to continue working?” He opened his eyes slightly and looked at

the beautiful face in front of him with a little dissatisfaction. “No, I naturally have to accompany you.” He

smiled. Lyra’s cheeks were hot, and she suddenly let go of his hand and walked to the bedroom.

“Lyra…”

His voice came from far to near. Before entering the bedroom door, he wrapped his arms around her

waist from behind and gently bit her earlobe. “You invited me over, why are you running?” As he spoke,

he closed the door with a backhand. “Moreover, where do you want to run to?” “Don’t you still have a

lot of documents to read?” Lyra pretended to be angry and glared at him, but she could not break away

from his hand. Instead, she was hugged tighter. “They are not as important as you.”
