Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit
Chapter 196

Chapter 196 You Don't Appreciate it

The man curled his lips and no longer spoke. Lyra's figure stopped at the door, and she gritted her teeth angrily. "What do you want me to do?" "Stay, until... I completely recover. After all, I am injured because of you. This request isn't too much, is it?" Hank slowly got up.

Compared to the request that the Lubi family made when Nore was injured, Hank felt that he was very tolerant and generous.

However, Lyra did not appreciate it at all. "... Alright."

She pinched her palm and cursed Hank a few times in her heart. From that minute on, whenever Hank had something to do, he would ask her to do it. She even had to peel oranges for him. The unwillingness in Lyra's heart was written all over her face. Hank looked down at the magazine and did not look at her. Instead, he casually said, "You should be glad that I only hurt my head and elbow. If it were more serious I'm afraid you would never be able to leave.". Lyra threw the peeled orange peels into the trash can. "Then I have to thank Mr. Barnwell for his magnanimity." She snorted expressionlessly. "You're welcome." Although Hank said this, he knew what he was doing. He wanted her to stay by his side no matter what. It did not matter if she was willing or not. "Lyra, I want coffee." "Lyra, get me a book." "Lyra, type a document." He didn't need to move a step. Lyra was like an obedient robot. "Sir, if there is anything I can do, just tell me." Sister Zhang couldn't bear to watch anymore. No matter what, Lyra could not handle s much work. However, Hank did not take Sister Zhang's words to heart. He only glanced at the side.

Lyra sighed, got up, and took the notebook over. "Speak."

"The Barnwell group clarifies it publicly..." Hank did not mind her identity and position at all. He asked Lyra to be his temporary secretary. He dictated and let Lyra type.

Lyra frowned and looked at Hank a few times.

How could he remember so many technical terms?

Although Hank was deliberately waiting for her, Lyra still found it difficult. Half an hour later, she finally finished a document.

"Take a look at the content..."

"No need, send it to Keith." Hank did not even look at it as he directly instructed.

Lyra stared at his eyes and brows for a while before saying, "Aren't you afraid that I will tamper with the contents?"

"You won't." Hank suddenly smiled.

He had the confidence.

For some unknown reason, a nameless fire burst out in Lyra's heart at that moment. She had completely seen through. Just as Lyra was about to argue with him, the servant led a few of the Barnwell group's executives in.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Lyra standing in front of Hank. Moreover, she was wearing a home dress and her hair was very loose and casual. At that moment, they felt like they had accidentally entered a couple's home. "Mr. Barnwell, this...". They looked at each other and hurriedly said, "We'll wait outside first!" Lyra was also stunned. She was about to move her feet and run upstairs. However, when she thought about it again, if she went in and out of Hank's house so naturally, it would be even more difficult to explain! She paced around, not knowing what to do. "Lyra, pour tea," Hank said with a natural expression. The Barnwell group's people were all stunned. They only heard that Hank was injured by the Williams family, but they never thought that they would see Lyra taking care of him at his home!

Could it be that the rumors outside were true?

Was Mr. Barnwell really going to reconcile with his bankrupt ex-wife? Lyra gritted her teeth and glared at Hank. She directly rushed into the kitchen. She was now sure that he was deliberately messing with her. He knew that the Barnwell group's people were coming, but he didn't tell her in advance. He was clearly letting others misunderstand their relationship.

"You want to ruin my reputation, right? Don't forget, you have a wife now!" Lyra thought fiercely, poured tea with the hottest water, and carried it into the living room.

They were already discussing business. However, Lyra walked over very naturally. She put down the teacup and had no intention of leaving. The business manager, who was reporting, paused and waited for Lyra to leave. But the next second, Lyra sat down openly. "Don't look at me. Your Mr. Barnwell can't take care of himself. Right, Mr. Barnwell?" Lyra smiled.

If he denied it, she could take the opportunity to leave.

The man lifted his eyes to look at her, and his handsome face revealed a rare gentleness. "Yes, I'm seriously injured."

Lyra gritted her teeth.

He had really been hit in the head.

"Let's continue." Hank retracted his gaze. When his gaze was not on Lyra, it suddenly turned cold.

"Yes." The business manager did not dare to hesitate. Since Hank did not mind an outsider, they continued to work as usual. "The cooperation with the Opple Group has come to an end. The next step is to... Work with the Jones Group..." As he spoke, the topic came back to Lyra. Lyra also gradually became spirited.

As someone from an outside company, Lyra could clearly hear the information about the Barnwell group's internal resources. During the meeting, several high-level management could not read Hank's mind, and they looked at each other in silence.

Can this kind of business secret be casually said in front of the partner? If Lyra took the opportunity, the Barnwell group would suffer a great loss. In fact, based on the relationship between Lyra and the Barnwell group, it was very likely that she would do that. However, Hank's attention was not distracted at all. He just stared at the information on the tablet and was calm as usual. "Put in five more points for the first stage of investment."

"No."

Everyone was stunned. Who would dare to interrupt Hank's meeting?

They looked at each other, their eyes focused on Lyra. Lyra held a small notebook and remembered that she was investing in it. During this period of time, she had also studied a lot about investment projects. According to the strength of the Barnwell group's capital, if they added more funds, it would greatly affect the profits in the later stages, and it would also slow down the progress of the project. This did not seem like Hank's style. Even if he targeted the Jones Group and her, he did not have to use his money to go down the drain. At least that was what Lyra thought. Moreover, this would also affect the Jones Group. Lyra was anxious for a moment, so she blurted out. When she said it, she realized that the current situation was not very suitable. She pouted and said, "I am telling the truth. Do you think so too?" However, they were all the Barnwell group's people. How could they dare to refute Hank's words? They all lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. Seeing this reaction, Lyra was also stunned. Was she wrong? In this line of work, she was indeed a newcomer. After hesitating for a while, she finally looked at Hank. Business is business. He thought so too, right? "Mr. Barnwell, did I say anything wrong?"
