Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 316

Chapter 316 He Insisted on Asking for the Result

“For the past half a month, Terry has been under the control of the police. He has no ability to prepare

so many things. Lachlan is also an old fox. Ordinary people can’t plot against him.”

Who exactly was it that wanted Lyra to be convicted so badly? Alma? Hank’s face darkened again. It

couldn’t be her. She was not so meticulous. Then there was only one possibility left. No lawyer was

willing to defend Lyra. This was something she had long expected. After all, no one would be willing to

play a sure-to-lose game. Three days later, the court officially launched a court hearing. As Alma was a

public figure, the case took a semi-public approach. When Lyra walked into the court, many people

began to point at her angrily and scold her. “It’s really vicious to lay a hand on such a young child!” “You

don’t deserve to be a human!”

Alma wore a pair of black sunglasses and sat on the seat. She pushed up her glasses, looking as if she

had been wronged and injured. However, Hank did not accompany her to the seats, and neither was

Kensley family. Lyra sat down opposite her. She clearly heard Alma complain to the judge about her

‘crime’. “She is my husband’s ex-wife. She has always been jealous of our relationship. After | was

pregnant, she went to my house and the hospital several times to harass me. I have videos as

evidence. It is because of her that I suffered from depression after giving birth.” “Before I gave birth, I

also lived in the psychiatric department. All of this can be proven.” The judge accepted the evidence

she submitted and asked Lyra, “Defendant, you don’t have a defense lawyer. You can defend yourself.

What do you have to say?” The court was silent.

Alma lifted her eyes and looked at Lyra. At that moment, her lips revealed a faint smile.

She would win. Like before, she would personally send Lyra to jail!

Lyra never spoke, and the judge spoke again, “Defendant, can you hear what I said?”.

“Your Honor, just sentence her to jail!” “Yes, people like her do not have the right to defend themselves.

Only when she goes to jail can we ensure the peace and harmony of society.” There was a burst of

noise in the court, and the emotion of the crowd was stirred up. One by one, they pointed at Lyra

excitedly and kept shouting. “Silence.”

The judge shouted several times, but it was still useless. In the end, they had to temporarily pause, and

two days later, she would be sentenced. When they walked out of the court, Lyra was alone. She saw

Alma surrounded by a group of people. “Don’t be afraid. That kind of woman will definitely be punished

by the law.” “Is your baby okay?” Even passers-by would feel that Alma was particularly worthy of

sympathy now. Lyra watched from afar and turned to walk out from the corridor on the side. Suddenly,

a figure approached her. Before she could react, he had already pulled her to a corner behind the wall.

“Let go.”

Hank stared at her face and said in a deep voice, “I knew you would secretly go this way.” Lyra pursed

her lips and kept silent. Her hands kept struggling. But she could not break free from Hank’s strength.

“What did the judge say? Is the court suspended?” He looked as if he had expected this.

Lyra looked at him in surprise. Her eyes flickered with doubt, but even if Hank was powerful, he could

not control the court.

“The evidence provided by Alma can’t be counted as evidence. The biggest problem lies with you, but

you can’t admit it immediately. You must wait for public opinion to continue to grow. That is the best

time to settle the case.” He actually guessed this? Lyra immediately perked up and shook her head. “I

don’t know what you mean!” “Why do you want to protect Alma?” His eyes had already seen through

everything. Other than Lyra, no one else could calculate the entire matter so accurately. It was just that

he did not understand why Lyra wanted to help Alma.

“There are still a lot of reporters outside. If I shout, you know what will happen.” Hank said with a deep

voice. She looked at the man and chuckled.

Before he could speak, she rushed forward and covered his mouth. “No!”

Apart from protecting Alma, she also wanted to draw a clear line with him. If a reporter took a picture of

them together, all her efforts would be in vain. “Then tell me the truth.” He grabbed her wrist hard. “Let

go of me first.” Lyra bit her lips. “Impossible.” “Don’t say that you want to marry Nore. I don’t believe it.”

Hank insisted. “…” Lyra opened her mouth and suddenly thought of something. “I did lay my hands on

that child. It was my doing. Of course, I have to admit it.” Hank must have seen the video that Alma NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

took. “You are not that kind of person. Don’t lie.”

For the first time, Lyra felt that this man was so stubborn that it was annoying. Why couldn’t he believe

her? It was not good for them to expose the truth.

Instead, it would drag everyone into the water.

“If I investigate, it will only be a matter of time before the truth comes out. When the time comes, don’t

blame me.”

As he said this, his voice became a few degrees colder. He just wanted to know the truth from her

mouth. Why was it so difficult?

She trusted Nore so much and told him everything, but she hid it from him completely

This kind of different treatment made him very unhappy.

“I’ll say it again. I don’t have anything to admit, and no matter what, it’s my business with Alma. You

don’t have the right to care about me.” Lyra pushed hard and escaped from his hands.

Hank was angry and stared at her as she was about to leave. “I’ve already registered marriage with

her. Her business is my business.” Lyra’s body shook, and her fingertips clasped inward. “So, are you

willing to say it now?” The pain in Hank’s eyes was suppressed by him, and he walked over step by

step. “Why?” Lyra gritted her teeth and slowly turned around.

“Then I have to congratulate you.” Hank furrowed his brows. He did not mean it that way, but since

things had already come to this point, he had to ask for an answer before he could help her.

“Speak.”

“I really want to be with Nore, and I also want to draw a clear line with you. So, I want to help Alma.”

Lyra lowered her eyes. “It’s that simple?” Hank frowned and stared at her. “It’s that simple. If you don’t

believe me, go back and ask Alma.” Lyra did not stay any longer and turned to leave. Hank watched as

her figure disappeared around the corner. She was lying. Even if there was an agreement between

them, Alma would not fulfill it as promised. In the end, it would be Lyra who would bear all the

consequences. She would be sent to jail. Hank took out his phone and dialed Nore’s number. The only

person who might know about this was Nore. “I won’t betray Lyra. You’ve found the wrong person,” said

Nore. A cold wind blew against his face. Hank said slowly, which made Nore change his mind.

“Do you want to watch her life be ruined like this?”
