Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 271

Chapter 271 Deal

Huaien Barnwell’s words were reasonable. “Don’t worry, Second Uncle. I’ll think about it carefully and

talk to Terry personally. I won’t let things get worse.”

“That’s good. No matter what, you are partners. Don’t make things too awkward. Besides, there are still

several projects in the company that are under his control. You have to think carefully about the

stakes.”

“Okay, I understand.” “Also, I saw the news. Is Lyra really with that kid from the Priestley family?”

Huaien asked nosily. “I don’t know either,” Hank’s face darkened. Huaien pulled him and muttered a

few more words before getting up and leaving. After sending him out, Hank thought for a while and

pressed the internal phone. “Make an appointment with Vice President Xiao in the afternoon.” “Okay,

Mr. Barnwell.” When the secretary called Terry, he was already sitting in the president’s office of the

Jones Group. Lyra was sitting opposite him. Jing and Su Yuan stood at the door, and both of them

perked up their ears to listen to the movements inside. “Manager Priestley, do you think Ms. Jones will

be in danger? Should I call the security guards downstairs, just in case?” “No need, just listen quietly.”

Jing frowned with a vigilant look. In the office, Lyra sat calmly. “Vice President Xiao is so free to come

here to drink tea?” “The Jones Group’s development prospects are so good now. Of course, I am here

to talk business with you.” Terry put down his phone and smiled. “This is the evidence of corruption and

bribery of the Barnwell group’s higher-ups. I need you to give these things to Hank.” He blatantly threw

out a stack of money and a list.

“What do you mean?” “This way, you can threaten him and achieve the goal of making a comeback,

and I can also benefit from it and achieve the best of both worlds.”

The atmosphere in the office became somewhat indescribable.

“I won’t do it.” Lyra’s eyebrows tightened. This answer was obviously something that Terry did not Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

expect. “Ms. Jones is really… different from the others.” The hatred in Terry’s eyes suddenly became

clear. He leaned forward a little, “This is not the first time you have rejected me. There is a limit to my

patience.” “Not everyone is willing to be in cahoots with you. The Jones Group does not welcome you.

Please leave.” Lyra answered very firmly. “Heh… Do you want to take revenge on Hank just like this?

You won’t be able to do it in a few lifetimes!” Lyra’s expression became a little gloomy. After a long time,

she turned around. There was no need to waste breath with someone like Terry. “Whether I can

succeed or not is my business. It has nothing to do with you. Su Yuan, see the guest out.” Lyra

clenched her fingers. Terry sneered and walked out.

Su Yuan was about to catch up when Jing stopped her. “I’ll go. You stay behind to accompany Ms.

Jones.” Su Yuan felt very scared when she saw Terry just now. She naturally nodded. “Vice President

Xiao, why did you come for Ms. Jones?” Jing quickly followed. “It has nothing to do with you.” Terry put

a piece of gum into his mouth and looked at Jing with a calculating look, “I heard that you are going

after Lyra. How is it going?” Jing’s eyes turned cold, and the lift door opened. He said coldly, “Please be

careful with your words.”

“Tsk.”

“What are you pretending for?” Terry sneered. The lift door slowly closed. At the last minute, Jing

pressed the button and also walked in.

“I have already heard the purpose of you looking for Lyra. I can do this for you.” “You?” Terry had

always been wary of those who took the initiative to deliver themselves to his doorstep. Jing scratched

his forehead, “As long as you can achieve your goal, why bother about the process?” “I didn’t expect

that Zongxing’s son would be so bold.”

Upstairs in the office. Seeing that Lyra had not spoken, Su Yuan quietly stood to the side to accompany

her. “Ms. Jones, do you want to make a cup of coffee for you?”

“No need.”

The expression on Terry’s face just now kept circling in Lyra’s mind. It was very strange, but she could

not tell what was wrong. At this moment, her phone vibrated.

It was a news advertisement.

“President the Barnwell group wishes his wife to give birth in advance and sends out a mansion.”

Lyra held the phone, her eyes flashing with coldness.

It turned out that he was so generous to Alma.

Lyra took a deep breath and calmed her emotions. “Find me the collaboration project with the Lubi

Group last time, and I’ll take a look.”

Lyra was busy in the company for a while and then drove to Jimmy’s store. There was a design draft to

be sent over. Unexpectedly, she met Zhang Min there.

After the last meeting, Zhang Min had canceled several arrangements. When Lyra saw that she was

here, she was still a little hesitant. Should she go over? “Lyra, long time no see.” Zhang Min took the

initiative to wave at her and said with a smile, “You won’t distance yourself from me because of what

happened last time, right?” “No, it’s your right to choose what kind of life you live.” Lyra shook her head.

“It just so happens that I met you here today. I have something to ask of you.” After hearing Zhang

Min’s words, Lyra shook her head repeatedly. “This favor, I really…”

“I can only ask you now. The foreign side is pressing me too much. I have to go abroad tonight.” Zhang

Min took out an auction invitation from her bag and solemnly handed it to Lyra. “That pearl necklace is

really very important to me. Please.” After she finished speaking, she put on her sunglasses and

quickly walked out. Lyra thought of her words and slowly sighed. Zhang Min wanted her to pretend to

be a female star and go to the auction venue to buy a pearl necklace.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to help, but that she didn’t want to meet someone.

One of the organizers of this auction was the Barnwell group.

Jimmy smiled and said, “I’ll help you dress up.” “But…” “Zhang Min is also my old customer. I will

definitely dress you up beautifully. I guarantee that no one will recognize you!” Lyra had no choice but

to nod and agree. At eight o’clock that night, she arrived at the dock and boarded the cruise ship. She

was wearing a black waist-length dress with a bare shoulder design. It was particularly charming. The

black lace hat covered half of her face. In addition to makeup and exaggerated jewelry, Lyra stood

there like a completely different person. “Miss Zhang, this way please.”

Because there were names on the invitations, Lyra was quickly led to her seat.

Not far away, a few men, upon seeing her, threw coquettish glances and whistled.

Lyra frowned. The people around her were all celebrities of the upper society. The behavior of these

people was really a little frivolous. She shifted her gaze away, thinking that she would leave after she

finished helping.

Unexpectedly, she heard the name of a certain person. “Mr. Barnwell, I really didn’t expect you to come

personally. Please come in!” Hank came? Shouldn’t he be accompanying Alma in the hospital? Lyra

subconsciously turned her face away. She only felt someone walk over like a gust of cold wind. She

pressed down on the brim of her hat. The other party should not be able to see her face. “Miss, why

don’t we sit together?” “Tell me what you like later. I’ll give it to you.” Lyra looked at the men sitting

around her and subconsciously frowned. But before she could speak, a hand pulled her up. “Get lost.”

Hank faced the men and said coldly. Lyra’s heart skipped a beat and she lowered her head even more.

Then, the man in front of her frowned and looked at her. “What are you doing here? You even took the

place of someone else.”
