Chapter 131


    Chapter 131 Men Were the Same


    Lyra never thought that she would meet Huaien here. Listening to his words, it was as if she had been


    pulled back to more than a year ago. “Thank you for bringing me up,” she said in a low voice. “But,


    everything in the past is already in the past.” Huaien sighed, “You children…” The elevator door


    opened, and Lyra rushed out first. Her hatred for Barnwell family would not end with Huaien’s help.


    Keith had already received the news and stopped her outside the office in advance. “Miss Jones, Mr.


    Barnwell is currently receiving guests. Pleasee with me to the lounge first.”


    His words were considered polite. There were many employees around the Barnwell group who were


    gathered together to watch the show.


    “If you feel bored, you can go to my office to have a cup of tea.” Huaien stood behind Lyra and said


    kindly. The Barnwell group’s employees gathered together and said, “Why is Vice President so good to


    Lyra? Is it because Mr. Barnwell and Lyra are going to rekindle their old rtionship?”


    “I saw that many reporters wrote that. Some time ago, Mr. Barnwell was on the street with her…”


    Lyra heard these words and her face turned cold. “Keith, get out of the way. I don’t want to make a


    scene. It will be ugly” Lyra did not give him any face at all.


    “Mr. Barnwell is really entertaining guests. It’s useless for you to go in now.” Keith still refused to budge.


    “Alright, I’ll go with you to the lounge. Lead the way.” As Lyra said this, she quickly turned and barged


    into Hank’s office just as Keith was about to head to the lounge. He was really attending a meeting, But


    this guest was actually L and his wife. Lyra’s appearance interrupted their conversation, but she


    ignored L’s scolding and quietly stared at the man behind the desk.


    There were too many things in her eyes.


    At the moment when their eyes met, something grew in Hank’s heart. There was a sh of hesitation in


    his eyes, but his face was still cold. “Keith, what’s going on?” “I’m sorry, Mr. Barnwell.”


    Keith immediately stepped forward. This time, he was not the only one who stopped Lyra. Instead, he


    used the Barnwell group’s bodyguards. She was a woman and could not break free from the three


    men, so she was pulled


    away.


    L was very satisfied with Hank’s actions. He smiled and said, “That’s right. Some women are just


    pestering. I really don’t know how Drake taught his daughter in the past. What a disgrace.” Wendy


    lowered her head, not saying a word. Hearing this, Hank coldly curled his lips, “What did President


    Kensley say just now?”. Even now, he still called L this way, and his attitude did not change at


    all. No matter how angry L was in his heart, he had to endure because of the Barnwell group’s


    strength. “Just now, I said that you and Alma should have another wedding. Even if you don’t do it, you


    should take her to your ce to live!”


    As he spoke, he even touched Wendy. She immediately understood and said with a smile, “Yes, Alma’s


    body now needs someone to take care of her. Sometimes, it is not good for us as parents to intervene.


    You and your wife should also nurture your feelings.”


    “Didn’t President Kensley say that he wanted to talk about business before he came? Is this what you


    meant by business?” Hank asked unhappily. He hated it when others took up his work time. Now he


    knew why Alma always lied and yed tricks.


    “This is business. Only when Alma is in a good mood and your rtionship is better can the


    cooperation between our twopaniesst longer!”


    Hank’s eyes were cold. He pinched the pen in his hand and suddenly let go.


    “Okay, I will think about it. Please go back.” “What are you thinking about? Tell me the address. I will


    send her overter.” At that moment, L’s face was full of calctions and false smiles. Was he


    trying to sell his daughter? “I’ll contact you after I’ve thought it through. I still have a guest. I’ll be leaving


    first,” Hank said as he slowly got up. “You’re leaving just like that? Are you going to see that woman?”


    L shouted


    from behind him.


    If not for Wendy holding him back, he might have chased him out to argue with Hank.


    He actually ignored his suggestion and went to see Lyra? L felt that he had been pped in the

    face and angrily left the Barnwell group. However, Wendy had always been restless. Just now, she and


    Lyra looked at each other and her heart sank.


    What to do…


    In the lounge, Lyra was not in the mood to drink coffee. As soon as the door opened, she stood up and


    stared at the other person. “There is something wrong with the judgment of the Racing Association.


    The situation at that time could not have been an ident. It must have been man-made.”


    “Where is the evidence?” Hank said lightly. Then, he sat down in front of her. His slender legs were


    folded, and a cold light shed in his deep eyes. “You can believe Nore’s judgment unconditionally, but


    I can’t. Neither can the Racing Association.”


    At that time, only Lyra and Nore were in the car. Nore’s feelings were the standard of Lyra’s judgment.


    Her beautiful brows slowly furrowed, and she said coldly, “Nore is so badly injured. Will he make up


    such a lie to cause this ident?”


    Hank suddenly smiled. His smile was contemptuous and cold. “He got you through this ident.”


    “You…”


    Lyra clenched her fists and retorted, “Don’t think everyone is as despicable as you are.” “Despicable?”


    Hank sneered and slowly walked towards her. He grabbed Lyra by the shoulder and pulled her toward


    him. His voice was like a whisper, but it was full of deterrence. “These days, aren’t you guarding him


    day and night? This is what he wants. Men are the same. What he wants is your body.”


    Lyra was angry and raised her hand to hit him.


    However, as soon as her wrist was raised in the air, she was grabbed by Hank. He stared into her


    eyes. The rage that was spreading wildly in his heart was mixed with emotions that he should not have.


    When he spoke again, the man’s voice was particrly deep. “As an investor, I can let the racing


    association restart the investigation. The condition is that you have to apany me for a night.” “Are


    you crazy?”


    Lyra widened her eyes. She struggled with all her might, but she could not escape his


    embrace.


    “Heh…”


    He leaned down and blocked all the light on Lyra’s head. He gritted his teeth and said, “What, are you


    afraid? I didn’t say I was going to do you.”


    Lyra’s throat seemed to be strangled by someone.


    Her dignity and pride were all stepped on by this man.


    “Lyra, you took the initiative to deliver yourself to me. Besides your body, do you have any bargaining


    chips to negotiate with me?” He flung her away and frowned when he saw Lyra crash into the coffee


    table.


    To negotiate terms with him for Nore?


    Hank’s eyes darkened. It was because he was too tolerant that she had so much


    courage!


    He felt the anger in his heart burn more and more.


    In the next second, he paused because of Lyra’s words. “I agree.”
