Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 433 Retribution

Officer Priestley immediately told the police officers to collect evidence at the scene. "I saw a surveillance camera at the door. Can you provide the memory card to the police?" A police officer came forward to negotiate with Lachlan. “That..... I haven't used it for a long time." Lachlan coughed a few times. "Now that we are both witnesses, as long as he apologizes to me in person, I won't trouble you." An apology was the most common solution in civil disputes.

As soon as he finished speaking, the man sitting on the sofa suddenly sneered. "Lachlan, let me ask you again. Is what I said true or false?" Hank's cold gaze was bone-chilling.

Lachlan was already terrified. But on second thought, they could not have any evidence. "What did you say? I have never heard of that kind of fallacy. Don't think of slandering me! Fine, you don't know how to repent. Don't blame me for not giving you face. Officer, please take him away and detain him immediately." "Hank, now I formally ask you what happened. You can also..." "I'll go with you."

Hank immediately got up and looked at Lachlan with contempt. "By the way, I also want to report the case." Lachlan panicked. If Wendy had not supported him, he would have fallen to the ground. Seeing them leave, Wendy spat on the ground, "Don't overestimate yourself. Now that the Barnwell group is in such a mess, do you still have the ability to show off here?"

"Shut up, what do you know?" Lachlan immediately took out his phone and called Huaien, but no one answered the phone.

Wendy saw he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot and instantly understood.

There was something wrong with Lachlan. Moreover, Hank would seek revenge on him sooner or later. Wendy gritted her teeth helplessly. If Lachlan fell, who could she rely on for the rest of her life? After hesitating for a while, she walked over, took Lachlan's phone, and pressed the hanging button. "How did I manage to leave the Kensley family and leave the port? It was Huaien who helped me with the procedures. Now, do you still believe that person's words?" she

asked.

"What?"

"He used you as a pawn to deal with Hank Barnwell. He was probably the one who set you up and betrayed you. You still want to tell him about it?" she asked. Lachlan sat on the ground.

"Then we are screwed..." he muttered. He was so frightened that his face turned pale. Wendy also realized that this matter was not so simple. She glanced at Lachlan's phone and walked over. "Tell me what happened. I'll help you think of a way." "What can you do? Get lost!" "Besides me, is there anyone else besides you? Even Alma has gone missing. If you continue like this, you might be blindfolded and thrown into the river to feed the fish!" With this sentence, Lachlan stopped moving. "It's all because of that bastard Huaien."

Lyra received a call from the police. "Miss Jones, we have received a report. We want to ask you about some details. I hope you can cooperate."

"Can I ask who the case is about?" Lyra held her phone.

"The defendant is Jasper."

"Okay, I'll be right there." When Lyra went out, she received a call from Ellie. As soon as the call connected, she was already crying. “Lyra, can you help me? Now, only you can help me. Otherwise, I will be chased out of the house and never be able to make a comeback." This situation sounded really familiar. "Sorry, I don't know you very well," Lyra said through gritted teeth. "Don't be so heartless. You... meet me, and I'll let you know the benefits of helping me." "Not interested."

Lyra said that and was about to hang up the phone. Unexpectedly, Ellie shouted from the other side, "Do you not care about Alma's life or death? She is your only relative in this world!" Lyra stopped walking down the stairs, and her eyes gradually darkened.

Ellie seemed to feel that her words had worked. "You can focus on designing, or you can work hard to keep the company your father left behind. What about her? What did she do wrong to be abandoned again and again?" "If I were you, I would not only care about myself. Instead, I would think about how to help her. She is your biological sister. Do you really have the heart to watch her be tortured to death by Huaien?" After a long silence, Lyra slowly asked, "Where are you?" Half an hour later, Hank sat in Director Zhang's office and looked at the time again. Officer Priestley sat on the sofa opposite him with a serious face. "She..."

"Not here yet. If she arrives, a colleague will tell me." Officer Priestley looked over and knew what he was going to ask. The man frowned. "Did something happen to her?" Hank immediately got up and was about to rush out. "Hey, Mr. Barnwell, wait a moment. Maybe she will be here soon." Director Zhang stopped him and thought about the case that Hank had just mentioned. He coughed lightly and said, "Officer Priestley, go to the first floor. When she arrives, bring her here immediately." Hank frowned and did not speak. Based on his understanding of Lyra, she should have already arrived. He did not ask the police to tell her that it was because of the case back then. He was afraid that she would not come.

Officer Priestley immediately got up. "Okay, Director Zhang." But before he left, he glanced in the direction where Hank was standing. After the door closed, Director Zhang immediately pulled Hank to sit down and personally poured him a cup of tea. "Don't worry too much. No one would have any ideas about her when she is coming to the police station." There was a coldness between Hank's eyebrows. Director Zhang looked at his face and thought for a while. "The case you mentioned, when it happened, you should be very young, right? Where did you know the specific

situation?"

Hank believed Director Zhang and did not hide it. He directly explained the situation at that time.

When the accident happened on the project site, it was his birthday. His father received a call and rushed over. However, not long after he left, a company employee

rushed into his house. He flipped over his father's desk and smashed everything in the house. In order to protect him, his mother was pushed to the ground. And after that day, everything about the Barnwell family changed. He and his mother did not even dare to go out of the house, because once they went out, the family members of the employees who had an accident would force them to pay and smash rotten eggs on them. "No one came out of court to testify for my father. When he was sent to prison, he was already sick to the point of unconsciousness." Hank recalled the pain from before again, and he still couldn't swallow this anger.
