Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit

Chapter 528

Chapter 528 Apology

Qin Xiaoxiao had never felt so proud since she entered the Barnwell Group, especially when she saw

the managers looking at her with extremely shocked eyes. At that moment, she became even more

proud. She didn’t expect how lethal Lyra’s next sentence would be. “Since Ms. Qin has gone back on

her word, I can only contact the lawyer for my, commercial information being stolen by someone.”

Originally, not many people knew about this matter. Now that Lyra had spoken clearly in front of those

managers.

Everyone present was a smart person. With a little mention of this, they already understood. It turned

out that Qin Xiaoxiao had been caught red-handed. In order to prevent this matter from becoming big,

they had let Lyra become the vice president of the Barnwell Group. In this case, how could Qin

Xiaoxiao still dare to show off in front of Lyra? A single sentence from Lyra could put her in jail. The

little girl really had no brains. The atmosphere instantly changed. Qin Xiaoxiao stood rooted to the

ground, her face pale and red.

“Huh? Are you mute now?” Lyra glanced at her, turned around, and sat down on the

sofa in the back. “I am waiting for your apology.” Qin Xiaoxiao felt that she had lost her face. As if being

stared at by countless pairs of eyes, she took two steps forward, hesitated, and stammered, “Sorry.”

Lyra looked at her with a deep face. “I’m sorry,” Qin Xiaoxiao said in a slightly louder voice. Lyra tilted

her head and looked at her. She blinked a few times and asked slowly, “When you questioned me just

now, wasn’t your voice quite loud?” “At such a young age, you only know how to scold people and don’t

know how to apologize?”

“If Huaien has taught you like this, you don’t have to fight for the Barnwell Group’s property anymore,

because it won’t fall into your hands.” With a few words, she had gained the upper hand. Everyone at

the back took a deep breath. Didn’t this mean that she had even scolded Huaien?

Huaien always had a warm and kind image, and he would never be rude to others with words.

What he did was… Now that Huaien had left the company and Qin Xiaoxiao remained, the directors

often tolerated her because she was young. They never thought that Lyra would directly expose this

relationship and not give Huaien any face at all. But those with discerning eyes understood it after

thinking about it. The Barnwell Group had swallowed the Jones Group for half the price. How could she

treat them well? Besides, she had something on them, which might put them in jail. Moreover, to say

the least, this company would still belong to Hank in the future. If Lyra was willing to remarry Hank, the

Jones Group and the Barnwell Group would completely become a family.

Qin Xiaoxiao had originally wanted to humiliate Lyra, but she only shot herself in the foot.

The heated gaze of the people next to her made her very unhappy. However, if the stalemate were to

continue, she would only lose face more and more. She frowned and braced herself to shout, “I’m

sorry!” After saying that, she ran off crying. Her trick was really unpresentable.

“She cried just like that? Su Yuan, do you think she can persist for more than a month?” Lyra smiled

faintly.

Su Yuan tsked from the side. “Hard to say.” Lyra put on her sunglasses again and walked to the office.

The managers hurriedly followed her from behind. At this time, of course, they had to choose a good

leader to follow.

Otherwise, they would be the next to run out of the company crying. As soon as she entered the office, © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

she was greeted by a large, curved floor-to-ceiling window. The electric curtains were automatically

pulled open, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of lilies. The style of the whole decoration was

very smart and innovative. One look and one could tell that this had been carefully designed by

someone. Su Yuan couldn’t help but feel a little dizzy. “How is it? I personally arranged it under Mr.

Barnwell’s instructions!” Keith said with a

smile.

He had originally thought that Su Yuan would praise him under such circumstances.

Unexpectedly… “Nothing much. With the Barnwell Group’s strength, is it difficult to set up such an

office? What is there to be so proud of?”

Keith gritted his teeth. He should not have asked that question. Fortunately, Lyra thanked him and said,

“Thank you for your hard work.”. “Then you should rest first. There is a meeting at the company in the

afternoon, which will confirm the specific arrangements for the weekend party.” “Weekend party?” Su

Yuan looked at him in surprise. Keith nodded repeatedly and did not dare to say anything more. He

quietly left. Originally, the team building party had been set for next month, but because Lyra had come

to the Barnwell Group to work, the date had temporarily been changed. Now the whole company

should already know how much Mr. Barnwell valued his ex-wife.

Therefore, in the future, there would be fewer and fewer provocative behaviors like Qin Xiaoxiao’s.

Keith told the whole process of receiving Lyra and Su Yuan in the morning to Hank. Of course, it was a

simplified version, which emphasized how warmly they had welcomed Lyra, and how Lyra had driven

Qin Xiaoxiao away effortlessly.

There was a gentle smile on Hank’s face. It was an expression that would only appear when talking

about Lyra. As long as he saw his expression, Keith could tell that he was in a very good mood.

Therefore, Keith timely reminded him, “Mr. Barnwell, we should determine the specific schedule for the

party as soon as possible, right?” He had to strike while the iron was hot. However, just as Hank

walked into the conference room in high spirits and was about to find an opportunity to talk to Lyra

alone. He learned from Su Yuan that Lyra had asked for leave. “She asked for one week off, this is the

application.” Su Yuan spoke in a completely business-like tone. In the entire company, other than Lyra,

she did not make much of Hank either.

It was not because of disrespect, but because Su Yuan understood their personal relationship too well.

Out of her protection for Lyra, Su Yuan naturally would not have a good face for Hank.

“Because Ms. Jones is in poor health, so she needs to take a leave. Mr. Barnwell, there should be no

problem, right?” The latter half of Su Yuan’s words were already giving him a way out. What if he did

not agree?

Then she still had another measure to take.

The joy in Hank’s heart was completely extinguished at this moment. He raised his hand and took a

pen from Keith. He quickly signed. “Alright, let’s have a meeting.” He was not interested at all. “Mr.

Barnwell, the reporters are here. Ms. Qin is ready.” “What?” Hank stood up with a cold look in his eyes.

“Aren’t you going to be interviewed with Ms. Qin?”
