Chapter 363 She Refused to Cooperate with the Barnwell Group
When Manager Zhang heard this, he immediately nodded firmly. “Keith, you are right. We can’t go
back. We must see Ms. Jones.” In that case, even if Lyra refused to cooperate with the Barnwell group,
they had done their jobs. If they didn’t even see Lyra, then they would have to take the blame.
“Be mentally prepared,” Keith said slowly.
They had waited for seven hours. During this period, Su Yuan had ordered two take-out orders for the
employees. Seeing that the two of them had not left, she frowned and said, “I really haven’t seen
anyone like you. Haven’t I made it very clear?” In addition, Lyra had clearly told her in the morning that
she had rejected the Barnwell group’s project cooperation. Why would the Barnwell group’s people still
come over and not leave?
“Sister Su, who are they?” an employee asked curiously. “Mind your own business. We might have to
work overtime tonight.”
Today was probably the busiest day for the Jones Group, but Keith insisted on waiting outside.
Unknowingly, it was already dark. By the time the employees came out one after another, Keith was so
tired that he was about to fall asleep. As soon as he saw Lyra, he immediately stood up. “Ms. Jones!”
“Why are you guys still here?” Lyra was also stunned. She had heard Su Yuan say it and had let Su
Yuan reply to them. The lift door on the other side opened, and a tall and cold figure walked out and
headed straight for her. The key in Lyra’s hand was directly snatched away. “Ms. Jones is really busy.”
Lyra frowned even deeper. “You…” Hank pulled her in and closed the door behind her. Manager
Zhang’s eyes immediately lit up. “Keith, we wouldn’t be fired, right?”
“It’s hard to say.”
The employees had already gotten off work. Lyra was pressed down on the desk behind Hank. He
looked straight at her with cold eyes. “I have already told your company that the cooperation is
canceled.”
“Why?” He seemed to never be able to get an answer from her.
Lyra was stunned. “Is there a need for a reason? Not everyone in the world wants to cooperate with the
Barnwell group. I don’t…” Before she could finish speaking, the man’s face had completely darkened.
He also loosened his hand at that moment. Lyra felt that the pressure in front of her instantly
disappeared. But he still stood in front of her.
Lyra rolled her eyes. “I plan to invest in other companies ‘projects. I don’t plan to do it myself.” When
Hank heard this, his brows furrowed even more. It was obvious that he didn’t quite believe it. “I can’t let
you know the business secrets. After all, the Barnwell group is our competitor in the future.”
He should have heard it correctly, and she was also very clear about what she was
doing.
“The Barnwell group has five investment companies under it. Any one of them is bigger and stronger
than the Jones Group. It is too unwise for you to choose this
path.”
Lyra had already done market research, and she also understood the Barnwell group’s strengths very
well. What Hank said was indeed the truth. In order not to attack her so much, he had automatically left
out some objective factors, such as the reputation and image of the company, and the investment
experience in the industry. These would all be necessary conditions for survival. Lyra knew how difficult
it was, so she did not want to argue with him. She wanted to invest more energy into the next job. “If
Mr. Barnwell understands what I mean, please go back. I am really tired now.” Lyra carried her bag and
continued to walk out.
“It’s not too late to stop before the beginning,” Hank said as he followed behind her.
Lyra took a few steps forward. In the empty corridor, there were only the two of them.
His tone was not heavy, nor was he mocking Lyra for not being strong enough. However, this was what
he meant. It made her angry.
“Not everyone can succeed in life. Can’t I try?” Lyra turned around and looked into the man’s eyes. “Or
do you think that the Jones Group can go further only with your help?
I don’t want the Jones Group to become a puppet company controlled by the Barnwell group.”
Perhaps many people dreamed of clinging to the Barnwell group, but she was obviously not that kind of
person. She did not want to live that way forever.
This was a kind of torture for her and Hank.
“Do you think you can succeed?” The man took a step forward. His voice was low, but there was a
sense of oppression. ‘Only by working with the Barnwell group can your company go further.” Lyra’s
heart tightened. She had to admit that what he said was right. Challenging absolute capital and
strength was equivalent to courting death. Perhaps the situation that the Jones Group had struggled to
break through would end here.
Perhaps she would no longer have the chance to turn things around. But how would she know if she
didn’t try? “Then I choose not to take revenge on you. I hope that everything in the past will end here. I
will let you live, and I will also let myself live.”
It was only at this moment that she finally felt relieved. Since she had decided to seal all the secrets in
her heart and no longer be bound by the hatred between the two of them, she had to bid farewell to the
past resolutely, and live her own life in a more wonderful way.
Perhaps, her father had thought the same when he agreed to her marriage to Hank. She hoped that
everything was a coincidence. The man’s eyes suddenly sank, and the joints of his fingers slowly
tightened. How could she say such words absent-mindedly as if she wanted to erase him from her life
forever? This feeling made Hank very uncomfortable. His throat was hoarse and he wanted to stop her.
But the lift door had already closed. Lyra did not even look at him and disappeared without a trace.
When he took another lift to chase her down, the night was dark and he could not see Lyra on the
street.
The coldness between the man’s eyebrows grew stronger.
“Mr. Barnwell, Ms. Jones should have left already. Look at this. This is tonight’s news.” As a rising star
in the design industry and the business industry, Lyra was invited to participate in an interview program,
and the date was the day after tomorrow.
“Let’s go.”
Hank opened the car door, and the coldness in his eyes became stronger. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Where was the woman who kept saying that she wanted him to die in front of her?
He would rather she remember the hatred of the past, at least she would not throw him aside.
Now, he could not get close to her life no matter what and was excluded from her life. This kind of
feeling made him so depressed that he almost went crazy.
At this time, downstairs of the Jones Group building.
Lyra leaned out from the side door and watched Hank’s car turn at the intersection. She sighed slowly
and she had finally said those words.
