Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 122

Chapter 122 Not Worth the Price

“750,000!” Nore gritted his teeth. “Forget it,” Lyra sighed helplessly. She had never wanted it, and from

the looks of it, Hank had deliberately raised the price. Even if the bracelet was created by a famous

designer, it was not worth this price. On the other side, Alma, who was beside Hank, had already

started to get excited. Hank, on the other hand, had a cold expression on his face. His eyes were as

deep as the sea, making it impossible to see his emotions. Lyra only glanced at him before shifting her

gaze away. “One million,” Hank said, holding the auction card. “One million? It seems that Mr. Barnwell

is determined to win! Are other buyers interested in this bracelet?” As the host spoke, he smiled and

looked in the direction of Nore and Lyra.

Nore still wanted to call out a price but was stopped by Lyra. “There’s no need.” She felt that it was

really pointless. In this life, she had seen enough of those people throwing away their money for the

sake of face. She did not want to be the kind of person who would sink into the whinipuol of greed.

Moreover, compared to Hank’s financial resources, Nore would definitely lose. “Lyra, I’m sorry.” Nore

said again. Lyra smiled. Her smile was unprecedentedly relaxed and bright. It was only at this moment

that she realized that what she wanted was not to return to the circle of rich and famous people, but to

prove herself. She did not have the Jones family as her trump card. She could also win.

As for Hank, Lyra did not care. When the host personally handed the bracelet to Hank, Lyra and Nore

had left. Someone began to whisper, “Hank still chose Alma.” “Lyra is really stupid. No matter how

strong Lubi family is, he can’t compare to Hank.” “Although the wedding was not completed, it is a fact

that Alma is pregnant. Sooner or later, she will enter Barnwell family’s door.” Hearing these words, the

smile on Alma’s face became deeper and deeper, “Hank, thank you.” Unexpectedly, the man just got

up and walked out. noveldrama

The bracelet did not enter Alma’s hand at all. She was a little disappointed, but what she wanted had

been obtained. She pursed her lips and quickly followed.

Jasper clicked his tongue. He knew Hank too well. This matter was not over. Lyra went to the office

backstage to get her things. When she came out, Nore stood by the street and waited for her.

She hesitated for a few seconds and walked over.

“Don’t apologize to me. I am not qualified to accept your apology. How you and Xu Ya develop is your

business.” Lyra had no emotions, and she was not questioning Nore about anything. They were not

boyfriend and girlfriend. “You…” Nore’s throat froze. The words he had prepared for a few days were all

stuck in his throat.

He clearly understood the calmness in Lyra’s eyes. The night wind blew the hair in her ears. She

smiled easily and instantly broke Nore’s heart.

“You are right. It’s all none of your business.” Nore forced a smile and told himself that

vould deal with all the messy relationships and not let Lyra be criticized. In the distance, Lyra saw Hank

and others coming out. She felt unlucky. “Let’s go. I’ll treat you to a meal.” She patted the bag in her

hand. “I got paid today.” Nore’nodded. At the very least, they could still get along as friends. For him,

this was already a very happy thing. If Lyra pushed him away or never saw him, he could not imagine

what would happen to him at that time. The two of them walked forward side by side. Hank’s driver also

drove over and took him and Alma away.

The night was cold. When Jasper was about to drive away, he happened to meet with Lyra and the

others.

“Miss Jones, how have you been?”

“Young Master Jasper.” Lyra nodded as a greeting.

Jasper’s gaze fell on Nore and he smiled faintly. “Mr. Lubi is young and impetuous, but it’s best not to

provoke people who should not be provoked, lest it affects the family business.”

The Barnwell group had cooperations with the Lubi Group. Nore was very clear about this.

He frowned and was about to retort when he was stopped by Lyra.

“Young Master Jasper, we still have something to do. We’ll be leaving first.”

Nore was forcefully pulled away by Lyra. There was a fire in his heart, but he would not do something

that Lyra did not like.

Jasper watched them leave and narrowed his eyes. “Interesting.”

Halfway through the meal with Nore, Lubi family called to ask Nore to go back. “Young Master,

Madam’s heart is not feeling well. She has been calling your name. If you don’t have any important

dates, you should come back to accompany Madam.” Sean said. They had already played this trick

once. “I still have something to do…” Nore said and was about to hang up. “If Nore has something to

do, just let him do it. I’m fine,” Lucy said.

She sounded really weak. Nore frowned and said, “Okay,” before pressing the call button. “Let’s go

home,” Lyra said as she walked out of the restaurant.

She smiled and did not look unhappy at all.

worry, I was going to celebrate with you today.”

“Did you count how many times you apologized to me today?” Lyra asked with a smile. There was no

need for that between them.

At her most difficult time, Nore was really a ray of light that shone into her life. But no one would want

to embrace the sun in their arms. Because it was too hot, neither of them would be happy.

Stopping damage in time was the most important thing that Lyra learned after starting again. “I used my

phone to get a cab just now.” Lyra looked at a black car by the roadside in the distance “It should be

here. I will go over first.” She did not want to become a conflict between Nore and his family anymore.

She smiled and waved her hand, walking quickly to the opposite side of the road. But halfway through,

Lyra realized that something was wrong. The plate was not right.

Lyra turned around and saw that Nore had just gotten into the car and had yet to

leave.

She slowed down and thought to wait for Nore to drive before stopping. However, the window was

rolled down, and it turned out to be Hank. Lyra stopped in her tracks, turned around, and was about to

walk back. But halfway through, her phone rang. “Get in the car and 10,000 yuan.” Lyra was so angry

that she gritted her teeth. Did he think that she would compromise for 10,000?

Lyra frowned fiercely. She opened the car door and got in. She was not that kind of person in the past,

but now, she had to lower her head. The car drove forward, and Lyra turned to stare at the man’s side

profile. “Mr. Barnwell is really getting freer and freer. He is still hanging out on the streets at this time.”

Didn’t he send Alma away just now?

They should be at home kissing. Or perhaps they had done it already. The more Lyra thought about it,

the more disgusted she felt. “I was just passing by to remind you. Don’t be stupid enough to think that

Lubi family will let you in. It won’t do you any good.” Hank’s voice was calm and his eyes darkened.
