Chapter 479 The Pain
When the news showed the scene of Ellie being taken away by the police, Lyra was preparing to pack
her things and leave the hospital. She had been resting in the hospital for a long time. No matter how
Keith had tried to persuade her, she insisted, so he could only compromise, “Miss Jones, now Mr.
Barnwell’s house is empty. Do you want to live there?” “No, I’ll go back to the Jones family.”
“I will arrange the car.” Keith nodded slowly.
“Keith, from now on, you don’t need to follow me anymore. Since I said that I want to keep a distance
from Hank, you can’t help me anymore.” “But this is Mr. Barnwell’s order.” Keith was so anxious that he
was sweating. If Hank found out that he did not do things as requested, how would he explain this in
the future? NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
“Don’t worry. If he blames you, I will bear the responsibility. Oh right, if Huaien wants to find trouble with
you, you can take a long leave first.” Keith nodded helplessly. Now that things had turned out this way,
he was not in the mood to go back to work. Other than Hank, he would not approve of a second Mr.
Barnwell. When Lyra walked out of the hospital, she was alone, carrying a suitcase, looking a little
lonely. But every step she took was very firm. The radio in the taxi was broadcasting news about the
Barnwell group and the Dingyi Group. The two groups had accidents one after another, and the whole
business world was in turmoil for several days. The taxi driver switched the channel in frustration and
muttered, “The world of these rich people is really troublesome.” Lyra rolled down the window and
looked at the river in the distance. In addition to the project for which Hank was sued, the other projects
that the Barnwell group was in charge of also began to have problems one after another. Many
partners expressed their doubts about the Barnwell group’s capital. There were even people who
wanted to obtain a huge amount of compensation for breaching the contract. The current situation had
probably been beyond Huaien’s expectations. He had just wanted to push Hank to the edge of the cliff
again, but he also put himself
in a trap. With the label of vice president of the Barnwell group, he just arrived at the door of the
company and was blocked by reporters and partners. “When can Hank Barnwell’s case be solved?”
“Your Barnwell group’s people are all so untrustworthy. You don’t do things according to the contract. A
company like you…” Bang. An egg drew a perfect arc and smashed directly into Huaien’s suit.
Then a group of people swarmed forward. Under the protection of the secretary and bodyguards,
Huaien entered the Barnwell group’s hall in a very sorry state.
From afar, Lyra tilted her head and watched this scene.
She pushed down her hat, turned around, and took a taxi to leave. At the same time, Dingyi was also in
a mess. It had just returned to the domestic market and had yet to gain a firm foothold. The daughter of
the Hunters was in a lawsuit and her reputation was ruined. Even if there was a lawyer to bail her out,
the case had been delayed. But the pressure of public opinion had already made Shengkun anxious.
Some partners who had originally planned to contact Dingyi began to retreat when they saw this
situation.
That afternoon, Lyra came to see Hank again.
But this time, she came by herself.
The two of them sat face to face through the glass. No one spoke a word. They just looked at each
other and sat for fifteen minutes.
All the words they wanted to say seemed to be written in each other’s eyes.
In the end, Lyra said in a low voice, “I let Keith go back. I don’t need anyone to take care of me.” After
that, she got up and left. The light in Hank’s eyes darkened again. He wanted to say too many things,
but there were Huaien’s people everywhere. They would be reported to him without missing a word.
Hank got up and glanced at the monitor on the wall. It wouldn’t be long. When he got out of here, all
would be settled one by one. “The director wants to see you.” A policeman came over and looked at
Hank. “This way please.” Hank walked over, and his tall figure was reflected on the glass of the
corridor.
“Mr. Barnwell, thank you for providing us with all the clues to solve the case. Since your case has
already been investigated clearly, how long are you going to stay in the detention center?” “We have to
deal with reporters every day, and we have to deal with lawyers. It’s really a headache.” Director Zhang
coughed. “I have provided so much evidence, and I have just this small request. Is it too much?” Hank
sat on the sofa and frowned slightly. “I just donated to your library last year…” “I didn’t mean that, but
after all, the people detained in the detention center are those who have committed substantial crimes.
You stay here every day, which is not in line with our procedures. I now officially announce that you
have been acquitted.” Hank pressed the space between his eyebrows. After a long time, he took a step
back. “Well, then I have another request. I hope you can keep the whole thing a secret. Even if
someone comes to ask, please answer that I am undertaking recognizance upon bail, not innocent.”
Director Zhang just wanted to send him back as soon as possible. “No problem,” he nodded repeatedly.
“Thank you, Director Zhang. I hope we won’t cooperate in the future.” “Yes, I hope so too.” Director
Zhang looked at him for a while.
Deep into the night.
Lyra came out of the kitchen with a fruit in her hand and heard a rustling sound from outside.
It came from the window behind the kitchen.
“Who is it?” There was obviously a figure at the back door. She was nervous and scared. She grabbed
the glass bowl and kept retreating. “It’s me.”
Lyra was stunned for two seconds, then immediately rushed over to open the door. She saw Hank
wearing a black windbreaker standing on the steps. Their eyes met, and Lyra’s eyes inexplicably
reddened. Ever since he had an accident, she had been thinking about when he would be free. She
could not help but worry about his situation in her heart. It was not until the first day she went to see
him that Hank silently told her that he had a way, that Lyra’s hanging heart finally settled. She didn’t
know his plan, but she couldn’t just sit around and wait for death. That was
why she had prepared those. She didn’t know if she could help him. . “Is there anything else to eat at
home?” he said as he took off his coat.. “There seem to be instant noodles.” Hank paused in his steps
and then laughed, “Why do I only have this every time I come? Don’t you eat at home? Even if it was
fine, now it’s not.”
As he spoke, he bent down and found two steaks from the freezer.
He then took the fruit from Lyra’s hand and used his hand to feel the temperature. “It has to be warm
before eating. You go rest first. I’ll bring it over for you later.” He rolled up his sleeves, turned around,
and began to busy himself. Lyra looked up at him. Her footsteps moved little by little until she finally
arrived behind him. She mustered up her courage and stretched out her arms to hook his waist. “Why
does it feel like nothing has happened to you?” How much pain would he have felt when his closest kin
betrayed him and framed him?
