    Chapter 254 Charity


    “No appointment!” “If you say so, I won’t let you go out tonight.” Hankughed. “Hank, you don’t have


    the right to restrict my personal freedom.” Hank turned his head away and stopped talking. The


    atmosphere sank. When the car drove into the Jones family’s old house, Lyra found something even


    more incredible. “What are these people moving?” More than a dozen workers were moving the


    furniture inside. There were also servants cleaning the windowsill, and more than half of the weeds in


    the courtyard had been cleaned up. Hank did not answer her directly. Instead, he said coldly, “Have


    you been living like this for the past few days?” Lyra didn’t want to talk to him anymore. She pushed


    open the car door and walked in. “All of you stop. I don’t need…”


    Before she could finish, she was shocked by the furniture ced in front of her.


    The color of the curtains, theyout of the sofa, and the carpet… everything was the same as before.


    Lyra stood there, as if a lifetime had passed. After a long time, she wiped the tears from the corners of


    her eyes and looked at Hank with a sneer. “There’s no point in doing this now. Even if you buy all the


    furniture in the world, it won’t be the same Jones family!” “These things do not just look the same.” His


    words caused Lyra’s pupils to tremble. She ran to the other side of the sofa, lifted the curtain, and


    looked at the scratches on it. It was a shocking sight.


    These were all the Jones family’s things!


    They were her father’s possessions that had been sold to repay the debt after it fell.


    Tears rolled down her face and surged. Her hands trembled as she touched the texture of the furniture.


    She could no longer move.


    “And… Follow me,” he said as he walked up to Lyra and extended his hand. “I don’t need them. Please


    move all of them away,” Lyra said as she wiped away her tears.


    She did not want his charity, and she did not want him to apologize like this. She wanted to hate him.


    Only in this way could she forget the terrible marriage and the feelings that should not have existed in


    the past.


    But he had been making up for it like this. She really did not know how to face him.


    Hank lowered his eyes and looked at her.


    “Rae is cleaning your room upstairs,” he said with unprecedented patience.


    Rae?


    Lyra raised her head, her eyes filled with tears. She hurriedly ran upstairs, pushed open the door, and


    saw Rae making the bed. The moment they met, Rae was also filled with emotions. She was no longer


    the Mrs. Barnwell from the past. She was Ms. Jones now. When the Jones family was in trouble, her


    house was not preserved and everything was returned to Hank. The servants also left one after


    another. Rae was thest to leave.


    She had stayed with the Jones family for more than ten years and was also reluctant to part with it. But


    at that time, Lyra was in prison, and she needed to make a living.


    “Originally, I was living with the rtives in the countryside. It was Mr. Barnwell who sent people to find


    me and told me toe back. Miss, it’s great to be able to serve you again. Look at me, everything is


    getting better now. Why am I crying?” Rae hurriedly wiped her tears.


    Lyra’s hand slowly tightened. “Rae, you clean up first. I have something to deal with.” “Okay, I will clean


    it up!”


    Lyra moved her feet and walked downstairs to the man standing in the living room.


    His indifferent look seemed to be the same as the first time he came to the Jones family. Lyra also


    looked at him from afar. She still remembered the throbbing feeling in her heart at that time.


    Time passed and things changed.


    “Hank, what are you nning?”


    The man had his back to her. When he heard the voice, he turned around. His eyes were dark and


    bottomless. “I want to make up for you.” It turned out that he wanted to return everything to what they


    used to look like.


    No matter how difficult it was, he had to do it. “Then let my dade back to life, and I will write off


    everything in the past with you.” Hank suddenly frowned. “Lyra, that is impossible.” “You also know


    that?” Lyra sneered and pointed at the things in the room. “My father is gone, and the Jones family is


    gone. What’s the use of these things?”


    happy to see them. Instead, I feel that I am a chess piece that you y with in your hands. When you


    are happy, you can return the Jones family to me. When you are unhappy, you can wave your hand


    and take everything away.” “Hank, you are the devil in my life. I hate you!” Lyra did not want to see him


    again and ran out directly. Just as she reached the door, she was stopped by the bodyguards. “Let her


    go.” The man’s cold voice came from inside Only then did the bodyguards let her pass. “Look, now the


    Jones family’s old house has be yours again.” Lyra burst into tears.


    Why could he manipte her life so unscrupulously? For her, the hatred that had been hard to


    suppress in her heart once again swept through her body Lyra walked down the road. She did not


    know that not far behind her, a figure was following her all the way until she got into Zhao Jing’s car.


    The phone rang, and Hank pressed the call button. “Hank, you moved all of the Jones family’s furniture


    back?” When Jasper received the call from the warehouse, he waspletely shocked. “You n to


    tell Lyra about what happened that year? I already said it. Hurry up and tell her. There must be some


    hope between the two of you.” “That’s impossible.” “She might really be your sister-inw.” Hank


    frowned. “She’s not happy that you moved the Jones family’s furniture back?” Jasper was stunned on


    the other side of the line. “She even scolded me.” Hank turned around and walked back.


    All these years, he had kept those things. Even he himself could not tell the reason. Perhaps in the


    depths of his heart, he had always been looking forward to an impossible ending “Then, if she really is


    with Jing Priestley, you won’t be angry, right?” The man stopped in his tracks. Jasper did not hear him


    speak on the other side of the line. He was so nervous that he could not speak. “Hank…” “She has


    already divorced me. It is her freedom to be with anyone.” Back then, he had indeed personally


    destroyed all the possibilities between them. What he had done now was just a one-sided


    hanging up the phone, Jasper put down his phone and thought about it. He felt that something was


    wrong. Hearing the sound of the car downstairs, he rushed to the window and took out his phone to


    take a picture of Jing and Lyra entering the Jones family’s door together. Then he sent it directly to


    Hank. “You have already missed a chance. If you miss it again, I am afraid there is no way to redeem


    it.”

    As a brother, he could only help this much. At the door, Zongxing went downstairs to wee Lyra. He


    saw Jasper standing there with a heavy heart and asked, “What are you doing?” Jasper was shocked


    and almost dropped his phone.


    “No, nothing!” “There is a guest at home. Young people always have a lot of topics to talk about. Go


    join them.” Jasperughed dryly. How dare he go! He was on Hank’s side, but if he didn’t go, he


    wouldn’t know how far Jing and Lyra had developed. “Okay, uncle, I’ll go to the kitchen to get some


    drinks.”


    Jasper took out some fruit and saw Jing circle around Lyra. The two of them seemed to be chatting


    happily. He silently thought in his heart, ‘Hank, if you don’te, don’t me me for having her as my


    sister-inw.’
