Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 544 What Is Justice?

The two men looked at each other and realized that they had already been exposed. "Did Sister Zhang tell you?" Hank walked over. "I threatened Sister Zhang. Don't blame her." Lyra blinked.

The man held her finger and exerted some strength in his paim. His voice was much lower than usual. "I didn't mean to hide it from you."

"I understand. You are worried about us."

She was referring to her and the child. Lyra smiled and held his hand. "But you have to consider that I am not so fragile. The more you don't let me know, the more curious I am. In the end, I have to find the

answer myself. Why don't you tell me now?" Jasper was at the side, looking at the two people who acted as if he didn't exist. "Since I don't need to play along with you, I will go back first. I don't need to watch this."

He turned around and left, leaving behind a sentence, "I will deal with the lawyer."

The lawyer?

It seemed that the matter had blown up again.

And just as Lyra had expected, Huaien really wanted to splash this dirty water on Hank.

"Speak." Her tone was gentle, and her fingers hooked around the back of his hand. Hank's eyes darkened a little. "There were villagers who heard a woman crying when they went up the mountain to cut trees. After they went over, they found Qin Xiaoxiao."

He said this and said no more.

The scene was too...

"Later, Officer Priestley contacted me. He said that Qin Xiaoxiao kept calling my name." Lyra could see the suppressed anger in his eyes at a glance. She also knew that he did not have any feelings for Qin Xiaoxiao. Instead, he simply felt that this little girl was very pitiful. She did not make any big mistakes. She just hoped that there was a rich father who could sincerely love her. It would make her life more comfortable. "She chose it herself. She has many opportunities to escape. If not for Huaien, she still would have taken this path," Lyra said lightly.

The greed in the heart was a seed planted by herself.. It had nothing to do with anyone else. If Huaien was guilty, then his sin was being too ruthless. He wouldn't even give that little girl a chance to redeem herself. "You're right. I shouldn't be too merciful." Hank opened his mouth and nodded. "We can send her away or contact her family. There will always be a place where she can stay away from everything here and start over again." "Okay." In the next few days, reporters and lawyers came to visit from time to time. It was all for the sake of Qin Xiaoxiao. No one knew what kind of evidence they held in their hands, but they all insisted that this matter had something to do with Hank. The questions they asked were so outrageous. Hank immediately called the security guards to drive them out. "Let's go, I'll go with you." Lyra put on her clothes. Last night, he was on his phone until very late and said that he was going to the law office today to solve Qin Xiaoxiao's problem. Lyra had already heard it, but she pretended not to know. "You should rest at home. I can go alone." The man frowned. "I'm a little worried." She lowered her head to change her shoes and said softly, "I'm afraid that you'll hit someone in public. You'll make the headline if that happens."

He could not stop her and could only let her follow. "Mr. Barnwell, your uncle has arrived. In addition, we have already cleared the area. All the employees have signed a confidentiality agreement. Everything that happened today will not be leaked. Please rest assured."

They were really responsible. However, when Lyra entered the elevator, she deliberately looked to the other side.

It was a corridor with a fire escape. She should be able to go directly to another building. Moreover, it seemed that there was no access card and she could enter and exit freely. In other words, what he said just now about no leaking was not that accurate. "Mr. Barnwell, please come in." The door of the conference room was pushed open. Huaien sat in a wheelchair, his

eyes full of sadness. Qiao Lin stood next to him, holding a thermos cup in his hand. Opposite them was the representing lawyer Chen An. There was also Hank's representative lawyer, Lawyer Liu. Both sides were present.

"In that case, I will make it short." Chen An looked at Hank. Although he respected Hank's reputation in his heart, at this time, he was full of righteousness and thought that he was avenging Qin Xiaoxiao. "Mr. Hank, I will officially file a lawsuit against you. There are a few points below..."

Before he could finish his words, Lyra let out a big sneeze. "Sorry, maybe the air-con is too cold. After all, I am a pregnant woman. Can I trouble you to turn it off?" Lyra explained gently, her hand touching her abdomen. She had indeed gotten a lot fatter recently, but her figure was still very well-proportioned. If she did not say anything, no one would know that she was already pregnant. "Little Zhang, turn off the cold air."

Chen An began again.

"First, about Miss Qin Xiaoxiao..."

"How is Qin Xiaoxiao now? I heard that when she was discovered, she had some mental problems. I have a friend who is an expert in this field and can take a look."

Lyra said very sincerely. Even so, Chen An and his assistant could not help but show some dissatisfaction.

"Miss Jones, the situation is very serious now. Please wait for me to finish speaking before expressing your opinion. Otherwise, we will think that you do not want to solve this matter reasonably." "You are right. You are going to sue Hank now and think that he has hurt Qin Xiaoxiao, right?" Lyra changed her gentle look. Chen An was even more annoyed by her sudden change in attitude. "Yes, if you have this kind of attitude, I can use some hard measures now." Originally, they had a little expectation for Hank. Now it seemed that they were thinking too much. There could not be any change in this matter. It was simply that Hank was blinded by greed and did not hesitate to do that kind of inhuman thing to his sister. As lawyers, they must uphold justice for the plaintiff. But as soon as he finished speaking, Lyra's laughter filled the entire room. Hank, who was beside him, had a cold gaze from beginning to end.

"Lawyer Chen, the plaintiff that you protected used the same vicious methods to deal with me. I have audio evidence and evidence, but I gave up. Do you know why?" "It's not that the court doesn't want to take the case, nor are those lawyers avoiding me. It's because the man sitting in the wheelchair beside you at this moment is a complete bastard, a person who can even abandon his stepdaughter for the sake of interests and status."

"As far as I know, in the past ten or so years, he has taken at least six lives."

"But he can still move unhindered through the Barnwell Group. How terrifying is such a person? You even defend him. Aren't you afraid that if you know too much, he will kill you in the end to silence you?"
