Sir Please Mellow Down A Bit Chapter 252
Chapter 252 To Get What She Wanted
Lawyer Liu gripped his black briefcase and shook his head vigorously. "Ms. Jones, I really want to help you, but my career has just begun. I have no right to fight the Barnwell group." "This is a good opportunity to make a name for yourself. Are you sure you don't want to go in?" Lawyer Liu laughed dryly. Looking up at the towering building in front of him, he still shook his head. "Ms. Jones, this deal..." Before he finished speaking, his phone rang. Seeing that he was hesitating, Lyra did not force him and walked alone to the Barnwell group.
Unexpectedly, after just a few steps, Lawyer Liu caught up with her and her attitude changed 180 degrees. "Have you figured it out?" "Yes, yes, yes. I think you are right. I have to seize the opportunity!" Lawyer Liu said with a mysterious smile. The lift door closed and Lawyer Liu took a deep breath. He did not expect rich people's games to be so amazing. Hank's assistant had asked him to accompany Lyra to sue the Barnwell group and promised to give him a reward. The most important thing was that he had to keep it a secret from Lyra. This was a cheap bargain, which only a fool would refuse! "I'm looking for Keith." The staff at the front desk saw that it was Lyra and said with a smile, "Okay, Ms. Jones, I'll take you in." Lyra lowered her voice and told Lawyer Liu, "Don't be nervous. Just do what I tell you to do." "Don't worry." Lawyer Liu nodded repeatedly. When Keith received the news, he appeared at the door of Hank's office and pretended to be surprised. "Ms. Jones? Why are you here? The company is still investigating the cause of the accident."
"There's no need to investigate. I've already found it out. I want to see Hank. I have something to say." Lyra's words were firm and decisive.
"This... no problem. I will arrange it for you. Who is this?" Keith frowned slightly. Lawyer Liu secretly laughed. Keith's acting was really good. "He is my lawyer. Where is Hank?" Lyra didn't want to waste time. This matter had to be resolved as soon as possible, and she had to attack by surprise. "In the conference room, please follow me." Keith turned around and led them inside. On the other side, the employee who had brought them upstairs dialed a number. "Tell Vice President Xiao that Lyra has come to the company with a lawyer." The other side immediately said, "Keep an eye on them. Vice President Xiao will arrive at the company immediately! Don't let Lyra leave."
In the conference room. There were three contracts in front of Hank, all signed privately by Terry and Director Qin, which involved the cooperation with the Kensley and Xu Groups. "Mr. Barnwell, I can really explain this. At that time, Vice President Xiao came to me and said that you knew about this case. Otherwise, I would never have dared to do such a thing!" Director Qin's old face drooped and he regretted it. Beside him, Director Bai braced himself and helped. "Mr. Barnwell, Vice President Xiao and Director Qin were also thinking about the future of the company. I believe that they had no ill intentions." "No ill intentions?" Hank raised his eyebrows in contempt. He glanced outside the glass door and raised his hand.
Keith immediately brought Lyra and Lawyer Liu inside. "Mr. Barnwell, Ms. Jones said she has something to discuss with you," Keith reported. Hank looked over with cold eyes. His eyes were calm and unfathomable. They swept through the crowd and finally fell on Lyra. "What is it?"
The displeasure in his tone was much less than before. He had always had a different attitude to Lyra. Keith frowned slightly. His boss's acting was getting better and better. It was clearly him who had arranged for Lawyer Liu to help Lyra avoid the lawsuit. Now, he had already predicted Lyra's intention and bribed Lawyer Liu with a commission higher than the market price. Everything was just a game of chess in his hands.
Now the person involved was right in front of him, but he could be so calm. He just did not know if he could hide it from Lyra, or what her reaction would be if Lyra knew the truth in the future. "I suspect that you are going to go back on your word." Lyra met his gaze, neither servile nor overbearing.
"What?"
Lyra directly pulled out a chair and sat down. She wasn't afraid that the Barnwell group's directors were still around. She directly slapped her phone on the table. "I have sufficient evidence here. All the encounters that day were man-made. I almost lost my life in the swamp in the West City District. I have already hired Lawyer Liu. I will sue you and the entire Barnwell group!" Everyone was stunned by the first few words. If what Lyra said was true, it was indeed a conspiracy to kill her for money. But when they heard the latter half of the sentence, Director Qin and Director Bai looked at each other and burst into uncontrollable laughter at the same time. "Sorry, sorry, I really couldn't hold back..." For so many years, only Lyra dared to openly challenge the Barnwell group Her bold move seemed somewhat ridiculous. However, before the smiles of the two directors faded, they felt a cold gaze with a bone-piercing sense of oppression. The two immediately lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound. There was no anger on Hank's indifferent face. "Keith, leave everything to the Ministry of Justice to handle. Everything must be done according to Ms. Jones's wishes. The relevant people must cooperate fully. In addition, the project inspection work will be postponed.” His arrangement was reasonable.
He had given Lyra enough face. As soon as he finished speaking, Lyra frowned, feeling that something was wrong. Was it too smooth?
"I still have internal matters to deal with, so I will see you next time, Ms. Jones."
Since she had already achieved her goal, there was no point in staying any longer. As long as he agreed to investigate in a strict way, the fox behind the scene would definitely give himself away. "Alright, then I'll be leaving first. If the Barnwell group goes back on its word, I will definitely not let this matter go. With the Barnwell group's efficiency, two days should be enough, right?"
Lyra smiled.
Unexpectedly, the man said coldly, "The Barnwell group's efficiency is naturally the highest in the city. We will give you a satisfactory answer within 24 hours."
"Deal!"
Lyra got up in satisfaction. Looking at Hank's face now, she felt that it was not so annoying. Instead, it was cold and handsome.
She smiled brightly and pushed the door open to go to the legal department. Moreover, there was no need for Keith to lead the way. She was quite familiar with it. As soon as Lyra entered the lift, Terry rushed over with his assistant. Unfortunately, he missed Lyra.
As soon as he pushed open the door of the conference room, he knew that it was too late!
"Vice President Xiao, Mr. Barnwell asked you to cooperate with the investigation. In addition, the cooperation with Williams Group has been suspended. You should be responsible for these contracts that you have signed privately yourself." Keith followed Hank's instructions and explained the matter clearly. Hank wanted to clear out the bad tendencies in the company, and coincidentally, he used Lyra. Terry was filled with anger. He had already rushed over as soon as possible, but he was still a step too late. How did these contracts fall into Hank's hands? And those few foreigns were too slow. They didn't hurt Lyra, nor did they hurt Hank. There was also Director Qin, who couldn't handle things properly and even splashed the dirty water on him. Terry could no longer laugh. "All of you, go out. I want to talk to Mr. Barnwell alone."
