Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 496

Chapter 496 Love Master

When Lyra walked into the meeting room, Alma was already sitting inside. She seemed to have lost

weight, but her eyes were even more clear and bright. Seeing Lyra come to see her, Alma immediately

smiled and waved at her. But then, she saw Hank behind Lyra. Alma’s expression was absent-minded.

She lowered her head and did not speak. Lyra picked up the microphone and knocked on the glass.

Alma still did not respond.

“I should go out first.” Hank’s eyes darkened.

As soon as he went out, Alma slowly looked up, but when she looked at Lyra, she did not have the

feeling of expectation and excitement like before. On the contrary, there was a sense of

disappointment. “I brought you some things. After the examination, they will be delivered to you,” Lyra

said, looking at her seriously.

“I know why you came to see me. Because the court is about to start soon. You and the lawyer are

worried that I will change the confession, right?” Alma lowered his eyes. After saying that, Alma

slammed the microphone and turned to leave. She did not give Lyra a chance to speak. “I thought you

believed me, but you were the same as them!” she shouted through the glass.

“No…”

Bang.

After the door was closed, Alma refused to see anyone, even the lawyer.

Lyra took a deep breath, slowly moved her feet, and walked out. Hank stood in the corridor. Seeing her

face, he guessed what happened. “She just didn’t think it through. Give her some time,” Hank said in a

low voice. But Lyra just shook her head, “There’s no time. The court will start the day after tomorrow.

If… Lachlan’s case has no conclusion, it will be more difficult to solve the case in the future.”

No lawyer would be willing to accept this kind of case from years ago. If not for the fact that Alma was

once a celebrity, the media wouldn’t have paid so much attention to her.

Lyra felt depressed and even somewhat regretful. If she hadn’t come, perhaps things wouldn’t have

been so bad.

“It’s not your fault.” Hank reached out and patted her on the shoulder. “You’ve already done enough.

Leave the rest to God.” His indifferent tone was like that of a person who stayed out of it.

Lyra gritted her teeth.

“If the case can’t be settled this time, my dad will always be the scapegoat for Lachlan. I have to clarify

the whole thing. Only then will the matter be considered over for us.”

She didn’t want to owe him all the time. She wanted them to not owe each other anything.

But… Hank’s eyes were cold, and he said in a muffled voice, “You worked so hard to facilitate this

matter because you are in a hurry to draw a clear line with me.” Lyra did not make a sound. The man’s

chest could not help but surge with anger. However, he suppressed his emotions for the sake of Lyra’s

pregnancy. “Let’s go home first.” “I’m not being unreasonable and I don’t want to quarrel with you. I just

think we can’t go on like this.” Lyra’s voice was very soft, and she was rational at this time.

She was more clear-headed than ever, and she was discussing their relationship without any extreme

emotions.

Hank froze. He slowly turned around and looked straight at her.

“When this matter is over, do you want to consider formally dating?”

Lyra’s eyes were calm. She looked at him and her gaze outlined his silhouette. “If you don’t want to,

then…”

“Yes.”

At this point, if he still couldn’t react, then he would really be hopeless.

Without any warning, he just held her tightly in his arms. They didn’t need to say anything and just felt

each other’s heartbeat. Lyra nestled in his arms and said in a muffled voice, “Can we get in the car

first?”. “Okay.” He was so excited that he almost couldn’t speak. That night, he sent Lyra back to the

Jones family. Seeing that she was resting, he immediately dialed Jasper’s number. “There’s an urgent

matter.”.

Jasper thought that something had happened to the Barnwell group, or perhaps it was some other

important project, but it turned out that he was just showing off. “So, you called me out so late, and I

even canceled my plan. As a result… just to listen to you talk about this?” Jasper helplessly pressed

between his eyebrows.

He saw that Hank had an infatuated smile on his face.

There was an unusual gentleness in his eyes. Yes, it was gentleness. Coupled with his usual cold

indifference, it really made Jasper have goosebumps all over his body. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

He had never seen Hank like this! “I know you are very happy, but can you be more rational? Be more

mature? You have already divorced once, and now you have chased her back. It only shows that you

still have feelings for each other, and you need to continue to work hard in the future.” Jasper’s words

woke Hank up.

“Lyra only said that she wanted to date you and didn’t say that she wanted to remarry. Isn’t it too early

for you to be happy now?” Hank immediately lifted his eyes and looked at him, his eyes filled with

uncertainty. “You mean that she might still dump me?” “Of course it is possible,” Jasper said seriously.

In an instant, Hank’s face changed. He straightened up and even grabbed the glass in front of Jasper

and drank it all in one gulp. “Then give me another idea. What should I do in the future?” Hank had a

very clear understanding of himself. If he relied on himself to think of a way, it was very likely that he

would make Lyra angry. The ideas that Jasper had given him a few days ago, although not every one

of them was useful, at least, Lyra finally compromised. He gave him a glimmer of hope. He had to hold

on tightly! “Well, I have taught you a lot before. You have to rely on yourself.” Jasper deliberately said

this and sat on the other side. “An A-level project.” Hank held his arm.

“Five.”

“Three.”

“Deal!” Jasper smiled and moved closer to Hank. “Actually, what you should do now is

not to find a way to keep her heart, but to continue to show your meticulous care for her and let her

slowly fall into your tenderness.” Hank frowned. “But she doesn’t seem to like me always interfering

with her life.” He was deeply touched by this point. “Think about it. Are you concerned about her or are

you interfering with her? There is a difference between the two.” “You have to respect her before you

can love her.”

Hank seemed to have suddenly understood.

He pondered for a while and looked at Jasper. “Why are you still single despite knowing so much?”

“Do you still want to learn?” Jasper frowned. Hank immediately raised his hand and opened the bottle

of wine again. “You also have to balance the relationship between your family and your career. Have

you finished dealing with Second Uncle’s matter?” Jasper asked, his expression easing.
