    Chapter 313 Envy


    Lyra waited untilte at night before listing out the things that needed to be sorted out.


    If she lost thewsuit, then the Jones family must be entrusted to someone worthy of trust to manage.


    The night spread and the moonlight outside the window sprinkled on the edge of the table. She looked


    at the photos on the table and felt a little bitter in her heart. In order to protect Alma’s reputation, she


    could only do this much. As for whether Alma would believe it after knowing the truth, Lyra was not


    sure, and she was not willing to think about it. That was Alma’s choice. She just wanted to have a clear


    conscience. “Dad, you should be at ease in heaven. I will take care of everything.” Lyra looked at the


    time and was about to turn off theputer to sleep. “President of the Barnwell group and his wife are


    registered for marriage,” a news window popped up. Lyra tightened her grip on the mouse. After a brief


    moment of shock, she clicked on it. The photo had been secretly taken by paparazzi reporters. It was


    Hank and Alma entering and exiting the Civil Affairs Bureau.


    Hank was wearing today’s clothes and his expression could not be seen clearly. Alma, who was


    following behind him, seemed very rxed. She had gotten what she wanted.


    Lyra took a few nces and turned off theputer with aplicated feeling. “It’s all over.”


    The next day. Barnwell family’s vi. Almay on the double bed, her eyes full of joy. She had finally


    reached Mrs. Barnwell’s position! Although the registration procedures at the Civil Affairs Bureau were


    still ongoing and they did not really get a marriage certificate, she had already sent the luggage to


    Barnwell family. Hank could no longer go back on his words. The servant, Sister Zhang, knocked on


    the door. “Miss…”


    As soon as she opened her mouth, she was scolded by Alma harshly, “Call me Madam!” “Madam,


    lunch is ready.” Sister Zhang panicked and lowered her head humbly. Alma smiled proudly, twisted her


    waist and walked downstairs. She even said, “Prepare the afternoon tea. The dessert needs to be


    delicious. I want to invite a few friends to y.” Sister Zhang nodded in agreement, but in her heart, she


    felt that it was not appropriate for Alma to do this. After all, Hank never liked to interact with people in


    the entertainment industry and rarely let guestse to his house. However, Alma now considered


    herself the hostess of this family. Sister Zhang could only obey.


    Alma slowly ate her meal and leaned on the sofa to take a few photos.


    Soon, the friends she invited came. Miranda was their leader. As soon as they entered the door, they


    praised the house for being big and beautiful.


    “Alma, I really envy you. You can live in such a good house!” “You finally got what you wanted. You


    married Hank. As expected, the mother is depending on the child. You are too amazing.” “Alma, if you


    see any good men by Hank’s side, introduce them to me, even if they are divorced!”


    When she heard the word divorce, Alma’s expression changed.


    She held the exquisite teacup and snorted lightly, “What’s wrong with divorce? Hank was also married.


    It was because he had experienced a painful and unbearable marriage in the past that he understood


    how good I am.” “Mr. Barnwell!”


    Alma saw them looking behind her in horror.


    She quickly turned around. Hank should have heard what she had said just now.


    “Hank, didn’t you say that you won’te back today?” Alma grabbed the back of the chair and quickly


    greeted him with a smile. As soon as Hank entered the door, he saw so many strangers sitting in his


    house drinking tea, and his face was unhappy. He smelled the perfume on Alma and pushed her hand


    away. “Come in with me.” He had already given Alma enough face by not chasing those people out


    directly. If she was sensible, she should hurry up and get those people away. However, Alma was not


    self-restrained at all. She followed Hank into the bedroom door and smiled as she leaned over. “I


    missed you so much.”


    SETTE


    “Don’t you miss your son? You just moved in and left your son alone. Since you want me to be


    responsible for the child, at least, I should see him.” Hank’s eyes gradually turned cold.


    Alma froze. She hadn’t thought of a way to deal with the mole between the child’s eyebrows because


    the child was too small. She could only think of a way to send him abroad first. She bit the corner of her


    lips and said slowly, “Of course I miss him too, but I have received a lot of work. I have to make a


    Hank just looked at her.


    No matter who said this, he would believe it. But Alma – He could not hear any sincerity in her words.


    Alma did not even dare to look up at his expression. After hesitating for a long time, she squeezed out


    a sentence, “Hank, how is our marriage procedure going?”. She had already bribed the paparazzi to


    send a news report and invited Miranda and the others toe home as guests to put pressure on him


    and confirm this matter.


    “I have to send the child abroad as soon as possible. I can’t dy any longer.”. She yed the


    sympathy card with ease. Hank looked straight at her. His gaze was deep and hard to discern. He lifted


    his hand and pulled off his tie. Step by step, he approached Alma. His gaze was so sharp that it was


    about to pierce through her soul.


    “I already said, give me a DNA test report. I will immediately get them toplete the procedures.” He


    only wanted a definite result. “Hank, do you really not believe me?” Alma was about to cry again.


    However, no matter how much she cried, Hank ignored her and turned to enter the bathroom.


    Alma stood where she was and stomped her feet in anger. She did not believe that she could not sit


    steadily in Mrs. Barnwell’s seat even though she had already moved


    in!


    She immediately turned around and walked out.


    “Alma, I think we should leave first.” Miranda and the others were also ready to leave. “Why are you


    leaving? You haven’t finished your tea yet!” Alma was not very happy. She had just started to talk and


    had not enjoyed herself.


    Miranda looked at the other people and said in a low voice, “We feel that you and MI. Barnwell seem to


    have something to talk about. We will not disturb you. Let’s meet again next time.” They said this on the


    surface, but everyone could see that Hank did not love Alma much.


    They only got married because Alma was pestering Hank. “You guys.”


    Alma frowned and smashed the teacup on the table. “Okay, you guys go. When I be a big star in


    the future, I won’t be with you guys anymore.” “Wipe this ce clean. If Hank asks, do you know what


    to say?” she asked. Sister Zhang shook her head nkly. “Madam, just tell me.”


    “Just say that you knocked it over. Do you understand? I really can’t get along with you. It’s such a


    small matter and you still need to be taught. Do you have a brain?” Alma muttered.

    As she spoke, she twisted her waist and entered the kitchen.


    Sister Zhang looked at the mess on the ground, shook her head slightly, and muttered to herself, “She


    can never be as good as Miss Jones.”
