Chapter 316


    Chapter 316 He Insisted on Asking for the Result


    “For the past half a month, Terry has been under the control of the police. He has no ability to prepare


    so many things. L is also an old fox. Ordinary people can’t plot against him.”


    Who exactly was it that wanted Lyra to be convicted so badly? Alma? Hank’s face darkened again. It


    couldn’t be her. She was not so meticulous. Then there was only one possibility left. Nowyer was


    willing to defend Lyra. This was something she had long expected. After all, no one would be willing to


    y a sure-to-lose game. Three dayster, the court officiallyunched a court hearing. As Alma was a


    public figure, the case took a semi-public approach. When Lyra walked into the court, many people


    began to point at her angrily and scold her. “It’s really vicious toy a hand on such a young child!” “You


    don’t deserve to be a human!”


    Alma wore a pair of ck sunsses and sat on the seat. She pushed up her sses, looking as if she


    had been wronged and injured. However, Hank did not apany her to the seats, and neither was


    Kensley family. Lyra sat down opposite her. She clearly heard Almain to the judge about her


    ‘crime’. “She is my husband’s ex-wife. She has always been jealous of our rtionship. After | was


    pregnant, she went to my house and the hospital several times to harass me. I have videos as


    evidence. It is because of her that I suffered from depression after giving birth.” “Before I gave birth, I


    also lived in the psychiatric department. All of this can be proven.” The judge epted the evidence


    she submitted and asked Lyra, “Defendant, you don’t have a defensewyer. You can defend yourself.


    What do you have to say?” The court was silent.


    Alma lifted her eyes and looked at Lyra. At that moment, her lips revealed a faint smile.


    She would win. Like before, she would personally send Lyra to jail!


    Lyra never spoke, and the judge spoke again, “Defendant, can you hear what I said?”.


    “Your Honor, just sentence her to jail!” “Yes, people like her do not have the right to defend themselves.


    Only when she goes to jail can we ensure the peace and harmony of society.” There was a burst of


    noise in the court, and the emotion of the crowd was stirred up. One by one, they pointed at Lyra

    excitedly and kept shouting. “Silence.”


    The judge shouted several times, but it was still useless. In the end, they had to temporarily pause, and


    two dayster, she would be sentenced. When they walked out of the court, Lyra was alone. She saw


    Alma surrounded by a group of people. “Don’t be afraid. That kind of woman will definitely be punished


    by thew.” “Is your baby okay?” Even passers-by would feel that Alma was particrly worthy of


    sympathy now. Lyra watched from afar and turned to walk out from the corridor on the side. Suddenly,


    a figure approached her. Before she could react, he had already pulled her to a corner behind the wall.


    “Let go.”


    Hank stared at her face and said in a deep voice, “I knew you would secretly go this way.” Lyra pursed


    her lips and kept silent. Her hands kept struggling. But she could not break free from Hank’s strength.


    “What did the judge say? Is the court suspended?” He looked as if he had expected this.


    Lyra looked at him in surprise. Her eyes flickered with doubt, but even if Hank was powerful, he could


    not control the court.


    “The evidence provided by Alma can’t be counted as evidence. The biggest problem lies with you, but


    you can’t admit it immediately. You must wait for public opinion to continue to grow. That is the best


    time to settle the case.” He actually guessed this? Lyra immediately perked up and shook her head. “I


    don’t know what you mean!” “Why do you want to protect Alma?” His eyes had already seen through


    everything. Other than Lyra, no one else could calcte the entire matter so urately. It was just that


    he did not understand why Lyra wanted to help Alma.


    “There are still a lot of reporters outside. If I shout, you know what will happen.” Hank said with a deep


    voice. She looked at the man and chuckled.


    Before he could speak, she rushed forward and covered his mouth. “No!”


    Apart from protecting Alma, she also wanted to draw a clear line with him. If a reporter took a picture of


    them together, all her efforts would be in vain. “Then tell me the truth.” He grabbed her wrist hard. “Let


    go of me first.” Lyra bit her lips. “Impossible.” “Don’t say that you want to marry Nore. I don’t believe it.”


    Hank insisted. “…” Lyra opened her mouth and suddenly thought of something. “I didy my hands on


    that child. It was my doing. Of course, I have to admit it.” Hank must have seen the video that Alma


    took. “You are not that kind of person. Don’t lie.”


    For the first time, Lyra felt that this man was so stubborn that it was annoying. Why couldn’t he believe


    her? It was not good for them to expose the truth.


    Instead, it would drag everyone into the water.


    “If I investigate, it will only be a matter of time before the truthes out. When the timees, don’t


    me me.”


    As he said this, his voice became a few degrees colder. He just wanted to know the truth from her


    mouth. Why was it so difficult?


    She trusted Nore so much and told him everything, but she hid it from himpletely


    This kind of different treatment made him very unhappy.


    “I’ll say it again. I don’t have anything to admit, and no matter what, it’s my business with Alma. You


    don’t have the right to care about me.” Lyra pushed hard and escaped from his hands.


    Hank was angry and stared at her as she was about to leave. “I’ve already registered marriage with


    her. Her business is my business.” Lyra’s body shook, and her fingertips sped inward. “So, are you


    willing to say it now?” The pain in Hank’s eyes was suppressed by him, and he walked over step by


    step. “Why?” Lyra gritted her teeth and slowly turned around.


    “Then I have to congratte you.” Hank furrowed his brows. He did not mean it that way, but since


    things had alreadye to this point, he had to ask for an answer before he could help her.


    “Speak.”


    “I really want to be with Nore, and I also want to draw a clear line with you. So, I want to help Alma.”


    Lyra lowered her eyes. “It’s that simple?” Hank frowned and stared at her. “It’s that simple. If you don’t


    believe me, go back and ask Alma.” Lyra did not stay any longer and turned to leave. Hank watched as


    her figure disappeared around the corner. She was lying. Even if there was an agreement between


    them, Alma would not fulfill it as promised. In the end, it would be Lyra who would bear all the


    consequences. She would be sent to jail. Hank took out his phone and dialed Nore’s number. The only


    person who might know about this was Nore. “I won’t betray Lyra. You’ve found the wrong person,” said


    Nore. A cold wind blew against his face. Hank said slowly, which made Nore change his mind.


    “Do you want to watch her life be ruined like this?”
