Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 545 Denial

After some remarks, the lawyers were almost scared silly. Only Lawyer Liu straightened his back and said, "I have the application for withdrawal. You can have a look." Originally, the court was going to accept this case, but Lyra temporarily withdrew her appeal. With such a change in the situation, the lawyers all looked a little uneasy. They had been in the industry for many years, but there had never been a case like this. It was complicated and confusing, and there was such a big turn. Lawyer Chen An looked at Lyra and then looked at the plaintiff beside him.

"Mr. Barnwell, now..."

Huaien leaned against the handle of the wheelchair and leaned forward. His tone was even more disappointed. "Lawyer Chen, I'm sorry. I originally thought that my family scandal should not be exposed, so I didn't tell you. My niece-in-law is even better than my nephew. It's because she bribed the attending doctor that my legs..." Huaien said with a sigh. "Keep making stuff up. Anyway, you don't have to take legal responsibility. Just say what you want. I can call the news agency now and admit that I did it. What can you do to me?" Lyra smiled indifferently.

Lyra stared at them directly. "It doesn't matter. At worst, we can curse at each other. But anyway, I have more years left than you do." She was clearly acting shamelessly. However, the lawyers were forced to be speechless. If what she said was false, it was slander and fabrication. It could be added to the indictment.

But what if what she said was true?

Lawyer Chen looked at his assistant and then the two of them stood up together. "I just remembered that there were some documents to be taken from the office over there. I will be away for a few minutes." Lyra tilted her head.

"Lawyer Chen, are you running away or going to check if what I said is true?" Lawyer Chen asked openly. "Miss Jones, don't misunderstand. I'll be back soon." Chen An's face darkened.

"Well, that will be best. I can't sit for too long." Lawyer Liu was holding back a laugh. He watched helplessly as Lawyer Chen walked out with a frown.

This was the first time Lawyer Liu had seen someone who could force Lawyer Chen into a corner. Lawyer Liu also stood up. "Mr. Barnwell, I'm outside." Hank raised his finger, and the next second, his deep eyes fell on the two people opposite him.

"Second Uncle, do you have to take this step?" Huaien coughed heavily. "I just want to get justice for Xiaoxiao. That child had a hard life. It was not easy for her to meet me, but... I am really sad." "What are you sad about?"

"Other than the four of us, there are no reporters here, and we don't have any recording. Aren't you afraid of angering yourself to death by acting like this?" Lyra asked. Ever since she found out about Hank's attitude towards Huaien, Lyra couldn't bear it anymore.

Anyway, this old man was ruthless, so there was no need to tolerate him.

"Miss Jones, Mr. Barnwell is also in love with his daughter. Please understand, don't say those irrelevant words." Qiao Lin said coldly. "Is there any place for you to speak here?" Lyra looked at Qiao Lin up and down. "Your position is not qualified to interrupt the conversation. From a private perspective, you have no right to interfere in the Barnwell family's affairs. I advise you to stay away from this kind of boss. If one day he thinks you are a threat, he will directly deceive you to the mountain and put on such a play." All of a sudden, Qiao Lin's eyes turned cold. Beside him, Hank took the opportunity to hold Lyra's hand, "That's enough." However, Lyra did not understand what he meant. Instead, she was more imposing.

"Everyone wants to solve this matter, but if you keep pouring dirty water on him, then we will settle the score! Let's see who has done more guilty things." "Cough, cough, cough..." Huaien coughed again. "Let's go. Be careful that he will cough to death on the spot and blackmail us again." Lyra stood up and held Hank's hand. She directly pulled Hank out. When she stepped down the stairs, she looked up in annoyance. "Did I go too far?"

The man's eyes darkened slightly. "It's alright." "Then why did you stop me just now? I should be able to play a little more." Lyra muttered and continued to walk down the stairs. Hank followed behind her, the corners of his mouth slowly curving up. No matter what she did, he had no objections.

As they left the law firm, Huaien really coughed in the conference room for a long time. It was only when Chen An and his assistant returned that Huaien slowly stopped.

"Mr. Barnwell, how was your discussion? I don't think the countermeasures we discussed before would be of any use," Chen An asked. "In addition, with Miss Jones' attitude, I think it's best to reconcile," Huaien's eyes suddenly turned cold. "Do you think what she said is true?"

"No, no, no. Of course, I don't mean that. It's just that there are some things that will affect your reputation if it really blows up. If there is a chance next time, we will do our best to serve you." Chen An smiled and placed ending contract in front of Huaien. Chen An received Huaien's signature and immediately stood up to leave.

Qiao Lin stood to the side. "Vice President Barnwell, are you still going to Director Bai's appointment?" "Go, I want to see how they can run away," Huaien said through gritted teeth. According to Huaien's plan, Hank would be pressured by public opinion, and he would definitely make some mistakes at work. At that time, with just a little push, everything would be restored to its original state effortlessly. However, Lyra's attitude made Huaien feel annoyed. "Qiao Lin, find out all the problems left behind before he bought the Jones Group."

Qiao Lin nodded. The phone in the car rang. "It's the hospital." Qiao Lin glanced at the name on the list.

It had been more than ten hours since Qin Xiaoxiao had been sent to the mental illness area. It was a bit late for the other side to reply now. "Let's go to the hospital first," Huaien said with a frown. Half an hour later As soon as they arrived outside the ward, they heard the conversation inside. "Miss Jones, we have tried our best, but at present, her situation is very bad. She can't think at all." The head of the psychiatry department was very embarrassed. "In other words, she can't identify anyone. Her testimony is completely invalid, right?" Lyra looked at Qin Xiaoxiao who was running around in the ward and felt pitiful. The doctor nodded. "Yes, you can understand it that way." "Okay, thank you." Lyra got up and opened the door of the ward, just in time to face Huaien. "You are late. Don't ask. Qin Xiaoxiao has really been tormented by you. To you, she is useless."
