Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 408 Sorry, I Already Have It

An hour later.

Ellie sat in Hank's car. The place she went to was indeed Carson's private gathering.

However, she went alone.

Hank also took an extra invitation.

Ellie bit the corner of her lips. When she thought of Hank's cold face just now, she almost went crazy with jealousy. That man's heart was filled with only his ex-wife! She had already tried her best, but she still couldn't get close to him. She turned her head to look at the street view outside the window, and the tenderness in her eyes faded away. It was fine. So that the game was fun. Hank rushed to the Jones family with the invitation letter. As soon as the car stopped, he saw Lyra wearing a beautiful pink dress. Her hair was scattered behind her head, and she was locking the door with her back to him. As soon as she turned around, her fair face was revealed in front of the man. She only had light makeup on, and her whole body was full of a free and gentle aura. It made him lose his mind at that moment. "Where are you going to go with your dress like this?" He said first, but it was not words of praise. Thinking about how he had seen her walking with Xuanze in the commercial building yesterday, his heart burned with anger. Lyra did not answer but looked at him warily. It was already late, and she had to leave as soon as possible. "No matter what you have to do, please move aside. I have a very important matter today." "Didn't you say you wanted to develop your career? Yet, you're now rushing to be someone's stepmother?" Hank suddenly tightened his hand and pulled her wrist.

Lyra helplessly pushed his hand away and said in a very impolite voice, "It has nothing to do with you!" "Lyra, if you take another step forward, you will regret it." He stood on the steps, and for the first time, he realized how powerless he was when he faced her. "The thing I regret the most is..."

"Carson has a private party tonight. This is an invitation. Either you get in the car or 1 burn it." When Lyra heard this, her gaze fixed on his hand.

The change in her expression was obvious.

Hank held the invitation letter and felt that he was a little ridiculous. He actually used this method to keep her.

Just when he wanted to redeem the atmosphere of the confrontation just now, Lyra smiled. "It doesn't matter. If you want to burn it, just do it. Because I already have one." Hank frowned. He did not expect this.

Wasn't it said that this invitation letter was difficult to find? How did she get it?

"Next time, before you threaten others, you should first consider whether your chips are strong enough." Lyra turned and took a taxi to leave. She would rather take a taxi than his luxury car. The man standing on the steps did not move for a long time. By the time Lyra arrived, it was already too late.

She showed the invitation to the people at the door, eased her mind, and stepped in.

The luxurious and dazzling crystal chandelier made the entire hall shine with light. There were guests talking to each other everywhere, and each of them was a celebrity in the design circle.

Lyra also saw Mr. Armstrong, the founder of MON, but unfortunately, she did not see MON's acquaintances. She leaned against the bar alone, waiting for an opportunity. She needed an opportunity to meet Mr. Carson alone. "You must be Lyra, the little intern who relied on plagiarism to enter MON?" Someone walked over and looked her up and down. His eyes were full of disdain. "Even if you cooperate with LKD, you won't be able to produce any decent work. Tsk, you're still like a bug crawling here. How pitiful." Lyra frowned. She knew that she had been watched from the moment she entered the door. There were also people talking about her behind her back.

It was nothing more than the news about the plagiarism.

She had long been mentally prepared and felt that it did not matter, but she had not expected someone to come up and provoke her. After all, this was a high-end private place. It was clear that he was not giving Mr. Carson face, or perhaps, he had been incited by

someone. Lyra was thinking about how to deal with it when an elegant female voice sounded, helping her out, "How can you believe the groundless news on the Internet? I remember that when I met with Director Lyla of LKD last week, he praised the design sketches that Miss Jones made." Her words broke the silence of this moment. The person who came to provoke her immediately wanted to retort, but he saw a beautiful woman coming. "Who are you? Are you qualified to teach me a lesson here?"

Ellie curled her lips. Someone next to him couldn't stand it and said, "This is the Asia-Pacific general manager of Dingyi Group, Ellie Hunter." She held countless resources and connections. As soon as she finished speaking, there were even more whispers. However, they were all talking about how powerful Ellie's background was. In addition, she was beautiful and capable. If she inherited the Dingyi Group in the future, the person who married her would have endless money. "Miss, Miss Hunter, I'm really sorry. I'll get lost now. I'll get lost now." He apologized repeatedly and went to a corner with his tail between his legs. Ellie then said, "I really don't know how this kind of person with no manners managed to sneak in."

She raised an eyebrow, looked at Lyra, and took the initiative to take out her business card. "Miss Jones, long time no see."

Her words made Lyra a little surprised.

She even bit back the words she wanted to say for the time being. She tried hard to think about it, but she did not have an impression.

"Miss Hunter, have we met before?" The smile on Ellie's face deepened. Just then, a waiter came over with a glass of wine. She took a glass and said, "Let's go over there and talk." Lyra took the business card and nodded in agreement. After a few words of conversation, Lyra learned that they had met when they were young. Moreover, they had been neighbors for a period of time. However, after Ellie followed her parents and moved overseas, they had no contact. Under the guidance of Ellie, Lyra remembered many things from childhood. Gradually, a smile appeared on her face. The memories of that time were very beautiful and carefree. The atmosphere of the conversation also became more and more harmonious.

"I saw the news about you and your sister on the plane back home..." Ellie said very euphemistically. "Are you okay?" "Huh?"

Lyra was surprised for a moment. "If it were for me, I would feel very uncomfortable if someone suddenly revealed my family affairs. I would feel uneasy as if the whole world was seen through." Ellie patted Lyra's wrist in a friendly and gentle manner. "If you need anything from me, just let me know."

Lyra felt very warm in her heart. After what happened, no one had been able to understand her feelings like this. "In addition, I have something else to tell you." Lyra looked at the hesitant look on her face, and just as she was wondering, a figure walked in from outside the door. His sharp gaze swept across the crowd and finally landed on Lyra. "Come with me." He walked up and pulled Lyra to leave without a word.
