    Chapter 525 The Timing of Negotiations


    This was also an opportunity for manoeuvre. He had to see Lyra with his own eyes to understand her


    thoughts. Moreover, this kind of reaction was also reasonable, so when Keith nervously told Su


    Yuan, the other side immediately agreed.


    “Our Ms. Jones also said that she wanted to meet with Vice President Barnwell. It’s better to sit down


    and make things clear.”


    Keith went speechless.


    “What? Is there a problem?” Su Yuan asked. “No problem, but I’m afraid this is a little troublesome.


    Why don’t we let the two of them talk alone first?” Su Yuan refuted directly, “This is a big matter for the


    twopanies. Of course, all those involved have to be present. It’s not a one-on-one blind date. Our


    Ms. Jones is already full of sincerity. If you don’t agree, then forget it. See you in court.” The call was


    directly hung up. Keith was extremely annoyed, so he had to bite the bullet and go over to knock on the


    door to apologize. In the end, he sessfully took Lyra to the car and went directly to Huaien’s home.


    On the way, Keith exined again and again, “Our Mr. Barnwell has something to do at thest minute,


    but he will be there soon after he is done.” “Don’t worry,” said Lyra, looking out of the window. The


    sunlight cast a faint halo over her body, as if she didn’t care about this at all. Her entire body carried a


    calm attitude. Keith had already tried his best to drive very slowly. After dawdling outside Huaien’s


    house for a while, Hank finally arrived with Lawyer Liu. “Ms. Jones, nice seeing you again!” Lawyer Liu


    smiled and went forward to greet her. Because of the suggestion that Lyra gave himst time, he was


    now a little famous in the industry and his career had advanced by leaps and bounds. Otherwise, when


    Hank went to find him today, he would not have been so busy that he could not leave.


    This caused Hank to almost smash hisw office on the spot.


    At this time, Hank’s whole attention was on Lyra.


    Every subtle expression on her face was seen by the man who seemed to be confirming something.


    Before they could enter… A group of people came out from inside.


    A few of them were reporters and cameramen of the television station. The people who sent them out


    were Qin Xiaoxiao and Huaien. Qin Xiaoxiao’s eyes were red. She urged Huaien to thank the reporters.


    “Thank you foring over to rify the truth. We also don’t want the rumors to go on and affect our


    peaceful lives.” “Don’t worry. We will immediately release the news,” The reporter said. But at this time,


    someone noticed Hank and the others. “Mr. Barnwell!” The eagle-eyed cameraman had already begun


    to capture the wonderful picture.


    This kind of shura-like plot was too attractive. Not long ago, there was an ident during Huaien’s


    operation. Lyra was the first person to be suspected. Although Huaienter expressed that he would


    not investigate this matter, his attitude made people feel that there was something going on.


    After that, the Barnwell Group’s power was returned to Hank.


    Now that Huaien’s daughter, Qin Xiaoxiao, entered the Barnwell Group and became Vice President


    Barnwell, did this mean that there would be a lot of uncertainty about the Barnwell Group’s ownership


    in the future? The reporters immediately surrounded Hank and the others. “Mr. Barnwell, the financial


    circle has been paying attention to the development direction of the Barnwell Group in the future. Can


    you talk about it?” Hank frowned, his eyes cold. On the other side, Qin Xiaoxiao walked down the steps


    under Huaien’s signal and said with a smile, “You are here. The food is ready. Let’s talk while eating.”


    Looking at the surprised expressions of the reporters, Qin Xiaoxiao said generously, “This afternoon is


    just an ordinary family dinner. Please stop asking about business.” The reporters looked at each other.


    But who would invite their ex-wife andwyer for a family gathering? However, the reporters still


    expressed their agreement on Qin Xiaoxiao’s words and left Barnwell family one after another.


    The moment the door closed, the few of them had different expressions.


    “Brother Hank, why didn’t you tell me beforehand that you wereing over? If the reporters saw you,


    they would start writing nonsense again.”


    Hank nced at her.


    “You didn’t tell me in advance when you handed in the acquisition procedures,” he said, ignoring the


    look on her face.


    Qin Xiaoxiao bit the corner of her lips, and her eyes became more and more aggrieved.


    But Hank ignored her and took Lyra inside. Huaien sat in a wheelchair, his eyes gloomy. But when he


    saw Hank and Lyra approaching, his face gradually showed a smile. “Even if you don’te, I will


    invite you toe.” When he said this, he seemed to be generous and kind. However, after so many


    things had happened, this fake smile of his waspletely disgusting in Lyra’s eyes. “There’s no need


    to act like this. Everyone is quite busy.” Lyra chuckled and walked in. Theyout of the entire house


    was very spacious. All the furniture exuded a sense of age, and the fragrance of pinewood permeated


    the air, giving people a feeling of ss and ease. However, Lyra’s first reaction was that Huaien was


    not worthy of living here.


    “The procedures for the Barnwell Group to purchase the Jones Group is almost over. It is impossible to


    Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    collect spilled water. Even if you are angry, don’t me Xiaoxiao. She is young and has many things to


    learn in this area…” Huaien nned to let Qin Xiaoxiao shoulder all the responsibility. If something


    really happened, he would give up on Qin Xiaoxiao without mercy. Sadly, Qin Xiaoxiao stood by the


    side and only said, “I misunderstood my dad and submitted the application materials. Lyra, I’m sorry.”


    “No need. I am not worthy of your apologies.” Lyra said disdainfully, producing a copy of agreement.


    “The matter is already set in stone. I have nothing to say, but asking for a littlepensation is not too


    much, right?” A hint of surprise shed across Huaien’s eyes. After a while, he smiled and said, “Not


    too much.” “Sign it then.” Lyra had already prepared the pen. “Now, just sign it, Ms. Qin,” he said to Qin


    Xiaoxiao. Because on that agreement, there was already the official signature of Hank and thewyer.


    Qin Xiaoxiao subconsciously looked in Huaien’s direction.


    Lyra pretended to be surprised and raised her voice. “What? Ms. Qin doesn’t keep your word? It seems


    that Ms. Qin can’t call the shots here? Then, did you make the decision by yourself to buy the Jones


    Group, or did you mishear his instructions?” Qin Xiaoxiao couldn’t answer for a moment. But the


    agreement had already been delivered to her hand. “It doesn’t matter. I have one day to wait for you to


    look through it slowly and make sure to sign it. This matter is over. If you don’t sign it, call those


    reporters back and follow the legal procedures.” Lyra blinked, “Could it be that no one told you about


    the consequences? If I sue you, you may be imprisoned.” She turned her head and asked Lawyer Liu,


    “If someone steals other people’s information tomitmercial crimes, how many years will they


    be sentenced?” “At least five years,” Lawyer Liu answered straightforwardly.
