    Chapter 221 A Soul-Stirring Moment


    At that moment, everyone’s eyes were fixed on Lyra. They were looking down on her. This circle was


    only so big. The news about the Jones Group had long been known to everyone. Now, no matter how


    confident Lyra looked, she could not change the reality.


    This was one of the reasons why Terry had asked her toe. Seeing that the wind in the conference


    room had changed, Terry flicked the buttons on his suit cuff. “There arepanies that are more


    suitable to inherit this project than the Jones Group. The first is the Kensley Group. Ms. Jones should

    know the rtionship between the Kensley Group and our Barnwell group, right?”


    “The daughter of the Kensley Group is about to be the mistress of the Barnwell group. Mr. Barnwell has


    always been valuing his woman. How can such a good project be taken advantage of by outsiders?”


    Every sentence was heartbreaking. It seemed that Lyra was sticking to Hank shamelessly. These


    words caused a series of whispers and sniggers. Even though Hank was sitting on the spot, there were


    still people whispering. Even if they did not say anything, their eyes were enough to show their


    thoughts. ” For a bankrupt daughter like Lyra who did not know self-respect and self-love, she must


    have relied on her beauty to have let Hank give this project to the Jones Group. Lyra slowly tightened


    her grip on the contract. On the way here, she had thought about these situations. However, when they


    really came up, her face still felt hot, and her chest felt stuffy. When Hank saw Lyra’s expression, he


    frowned. Just as he was about to speak, a figure walked in. “Vice President Barnwell!” The managers


    stood up one after another and greeted Huaien Barnwell. Huaien was usually very gentle, but now he


    had a straight face, “Business is business. Why should we criticize other people’s private lives?”


    Everyone lowered their heads, and the meeting room was silent. Huaien pulled out a chair and sat


    down next to Lyra. “Everypany could be in trouble sometime, hasn’t she already said that she was


    All of you are still so aggressive. Whoever sets the rules has to bear this responsibility.” Only he,


    Hank’s uncle, could say this. He seemed to agree with Terry’s idea, but then Terry frowned, feeling that


    something was wrong.


    “As long as the Jones Group has the confidence to solve the problem, the Barnwell group has no right


    to cancel the contract.” Huaien’s words turned the tide. “She did not run away with the money, nor did


    she dy.”


    “Her attitude is positive and cooperative.” “As long as there is a solution, the cooperation will have to


    continue.”


    At that moment, Lyra felt that the burden on her body was heavier, but she was full of strength. “Thank


    you for your understanding, Vice President.” Huaien nodded and continued, “I think you came


    prepared. I also want to hear how you want to solve it. After all, the project must continue.” “Okay, can I


    borrow theputer?” Lyra looked at Keith. After receiving Hank’s signal, Keith immediately went


    forward to help Lyra with the debugging. Lyra inserted her USB into the notebook and began to exin.


    She was not good at project nning, but she was a student of design. She only studied it for a while


    and made the PPT very beautiful. Although the specific content had yet to be considered, the general


    direction was refreshing. “This project has been started. ording to the contract requirements, what


    the


    Jones Group needs to do is the eighth, ninth, and eleventh uses…” After a series of exnations,


    the responsibility of the Jones Group had been specified in detail. Lyra gave out a solution to every one


    of them. From publicity to the continuous promotion of the project, the Jones Group could follow the


    contract requirements and fulfill its obligations, but she chose a smart shortcut. That was, she would


    not add any investment to the project. This contract had been thoroughly studied by her. Hank looked


    at her profile reflected on the PPT screen. The coldness between his eyebrows slowly dissipated. He


    raised his hand and whispered a few words into Keith’s ear.


    Keith immediately walked out and conveyed the order.


    In fact, before Lyra came, Hank had already prepared. He would hire a group of people to invest in the


    project in the name of the Jones Group. The amount of investment that the Jones group needed to add


    would also be done in his own name. However, the appearance of Lyra caused the situation to change.


    Her adaptability and sense of crisis made his eyes light up. Before this, he had never thought that


    Lyra’s ability to resist pressure would be so strong. After Lyra’s wonderful exnation, she silently


    breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. “The above is the Jones Group’s solution. If there are any


    problems, we can discuss it together.”


    The managers looked at each other and had nothing to say. These few ideas of Lyra’s were very novel,


    and there were even some aspects that they had not thought of.


    Most importantly, the responsibility of the Jones Group had been specified and there were no


    problems.


    “That’s all I have to say. Thank you, everyone.” Lyra lowered her head and tidied up the information in


    front of her, not daring to look up at the man opposite her.


    What if she had said something wrong and he would reject all of this with one


    sentence?


    This was the result of her efforts for several days and nights. Lyra pursed her lips and her movements


    became slower and slower.


    Finally, the man sitting at the long conference table said coldly, “Ms. Jones, please go to my office. The


    Barnwell group’s meeting still has to continue. Don’t waste any more time.”


    “Ms. Jones, this way, please.” Keith immediately went forward and took Lyra out. Lyra’s footsteps were


    light. When she was about to leave, she nced at Hank, but Huaien just happened to sit over. She did


    not see Hank’s expression.


    The door closed, and the cold air in the corridor blew over.


    “Did he think that I said too much nonsense and dyed the time?” Lyra quickly walked a few steps


    and caught up with Keith. Keith did not dare to guess Hank’s thoughts. He only blurted out, “Mr.


    Barnwell still has work arrangementster.” “Oh…” Lyra was a little depressed, thinking that her


    thoughts must have been too childish.


    Keith pushed open the door to Hank’s conference room.


    “Ms. Jones, please wait inside.”


    Under normal circumstances, Hank would not allow anyone to wait in his office alone. How many times


    had this been an exception for Lyra? Keith was respectful. As Hank’s personal assistant, he was very


    clear. How special Hank was to Lyra. He had asked him to bring Lyra here because he wanted to


    protect her so that the managers would not gossip behind her back. Even Huaien had received the


    news and rushed to the conference room, which meant that the news of Lyra’s arrival at the Barnwell


    group had already spread throughout thepany. Keith poured Lyra another cup of coffee and


    immediately went to investigate who had brought Lyra in. Since thest time Lyra sneaked into the


    Barnwell group, thepany had strengthened the security. In other words, Lyra must have appeared


    in the conference room under the arrangement of someone who had ulterior motives!
