Chapter 262 Unexpected Discovery
When he heard this, he nced at her coldly. “What are you trying to do by deliberately getting close to
her?” Zhang Min’s expression stiffened, and her smile was slightly helpless. “Mr. Barnwell has always
been aggressive, which hasn’t changed.” “This is myst warning. Don’t touch her.” Hank’s voice
became deeper and deeper. After he finished speaking, he walked down the steps. “You should know
who I work for. The person you should warn is not me,” Zhang Min said with a bitter smile.
She was just a chess piece in that person’s hand. “Don’t talk nonsense in front of me!” Hank turned
around, his eyes like ice arrows. Zhang Min’s beautiful face revealed a hint of helplessness. “Mr.
Barnwell, do you think that with my situation, I would dare to go against you? Of course, I wouldn’t dare
to touch your woman.” Her words were, of course, the truth. It would depend on whether Hank believed
it or not.
“You better be smart. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences.”
Zhang Min stood in the same ce and smiled bitterly. She watched Hank drive away with her eyes.
The dust that rose was like her broken life. “The chess pieces that are targeted will never end well.”
She took out her phone from her branded bag and sent a message. Then she put on her sunsses
and drove away. Hank did not care where Lyra went. Anyway, there would only be one ce she would
return to in the end, and that was the Jones family.
When he drove over, Lyra had just sent Nore away.
“Rae, close the door!”
Lyra’s eyes darkened. “Isn’t this… not too good?” Rae always felt that as long as the two of them
solved the misunderstanding, there might be a chance to continue their rtionship. Moreover, Hank
was in charge of all of the Jones family’s expenses. If Lyra drove him out like this, in the future… “Miss,
maybe Mr. Barnwell has something to talk to you about?” “No matter what his purpose is, I don’t want
to see his face and close the door immediately. If hees in, you don’t have toe tomorrow.”
Lyra said and turned to go upstairs. Rae had no choice but to do as Lyra said.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Barnwell.” As the door of the Jones family slowly closed, the man in the car revealed an

unruly smile. He nced at a window on the second floor. Good, very good. It had been a long time
since he had been shut out.
Lyra hid behind the curtains of the study until she watched Hank drive away. Then she looked away
She turned around and looked at the familiar bookshelf and table. She couldn’t help but miss her father
again.
Before she married Hank, she often sat on the coffee table by the window and read. Her father was
reading documents there, and she was not allowed to touch the things on the bookshelf.
Also, in the secretpartment… Lyra suddenly ran to the left side of the bookshelf. This bookshelf
had been specially made for her father. Although there was nothing valuable hidden inside, some
important letters and documents would be ced in this secretpartment.
If no one found out!
She opened the cab outside and slowly reached out to press the switch.
Bada.
The hiddenpartment was lifted, and there was indeed something inside. Lyra was surprised and
happy. She quickly reached out to take it. It was already covered in dust. She didn’t know how long it
had been kept inside. There were two envelopes, one thin and one thick. Lyra casually opened one. It
was her father’s handwritten letter. “Lyra, I don’t know if you have a chance to see this letter. Perhaps
at that time, our family had already changed greatly. Dad hopes that you can be strong and mature to
face all of this. Life is always like this, and the world is unpredictable. Dad also didn’t expect to take
such a wrong step, such a critical step!” “Lyra, do you still remember the puzzle game that Dad often
yed with you?” “If you can find the puzzle that I left behind, maybe the Jones family still has the hope
of making aeback. Don’t let hatred blind your heart. Dad believes that Hank doesn’t want to see
the current oue.” Lyra’s eyes were instantly covered with ayer of tears.
“Dad!”
She held the letter, her tears flowing uncontrobly. Her father had already known that it was Hank who
had harmed the Jones family to this extent!
Lyra’s heart clenched. Her hand trembled as she opened another envelope. There was only the word
“Lyra” on it. “Dad, what do you want to tell me?” Because she found these two letters, Lyra could not
sleep all night. When she was a child, her father often yed some guessing games with her in order
to let her y quietly. Sometimes, she could guess. Sometimes, she could not guess. What secrets
could her name hide? “Miss, dinner is ready.” Rae knocked on the door. Lyra quickly hid the envelopes
under the pillow. She felt uneasy and locked them in the drawer.
She could no longer trust anyone.
Just as Lyra went downstairs, two uninvited guests arrived. Alma and Wendy unexpectedly appeared at
her door.
“Miss, isn’t that…” Rae eximed. She did not expect to meet Wendy in such a situation. “Yes, that is
Wendy, my father’s ex-girlfriend.” “Rae, eat. Don’t worry about them.” Lyra looked away
expressionlessly. Outside the door, Alma bit the corner of her lips andined, “I told you, that bitch
Lyra won’t let me in. It’s all your fault that I had to act out this scene.” “Alma, be quiet!” Wendy pulled
her to the other side and continued to persuade her patiently, “Have you forgotten what your father told
you before you came out? Your tummy is getting bigger and bigger. You have to use your brain and
think of a way.” “Is it useful? She won’t let me in at all.” “Moreover, Hank clearly has feelings for her. For
her, he is willing to give up the child in my belly. Even if I kneel down and beg Lyra now, what’s the
use? Will she return Hank
to me?”
“Of course it’s possible. I’ve thought about it. Lyra is like her father. She yields to soft approaches but
rejects force, so you have to work hard to show your weakness to her.”
“Impossible, I will never bow to that bitch!” “Are you willing to be abandoned by Hank with a big belly?”
Wendy said bitterly, “If that’s the case, you can go back now. I can’t help you either.”
Of course, Alma was unwilling. Back then, with Mrs. Barnwell’s reputation, she had gained many
benefits.
Those advertisements and film contracts had been sent to her. Those directors and producers were all
fawning over her with smiles on their faces. However, ever since Lyra and Hank got closer and closer,
those people were waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
It was as if Hank would abandon her at any time and throw himself into Lyra’s arms. If that day really
came, her life would be finished. Alma did not dare to think about it anymore. Previously, she still had
Terry as a way out. Recently, Terry had also been suspended. What if Hank suspected the rtionship
between her and Terry… “Auntie Wendy, help me!” Alma steeled her heart and tugged at Wendy.
Wendy was quite satisfied with her words, “Alright, let’s think of a way to get in first. After that, you can
take your cue from me.” “Okay.” Alma nodded repeatedly. “Lyra, we really have something to talk to you
about. Open the door first. Otherwise, it’s not a good thing for us to be standing here all the time!”
Wendy once again went to knock on the door and advised softly. Lyra listened to the sounding
from the doorbell and continued eating. What could Wendy talk to her about? It would be nothing more
than those so-called rhetorics. Just when she wanted Rae to drive them away, Wendy’s words floated
into Lyra’s ears. “I came here today to express my sincerity to you. I will give everything that I took from
the Jones family back to you.”
“Rae, open the door.”
