Chapter 93
Chapter 93 Jealousy Made People Lose Their Minds
"How about I don't go? Don't spoil your mood." Lyra still had this bit of self-awareness. His mother wouldn't like her appearing there. Knowing what she meant, Nore quickly said, "My mother agreed. When I came to pick you up just now, she asked me to take you there earlier." "Really?" Lyra was stunned and looked at him doubtfully. "Of course, I won't joke about such things. Let's go quickly. If you don't like that dress, let's go buy another one." "Wait for me," Lyra thought for a moment. She took out an ordinary dress from her suitcase. Although it was a classic style from before, it made her look very attractive. "Let's go." Lyra closed the door, thinking that she was only going to have a free meal, and she could leave after eating. Nore was already very happy in his heart, thinking about how to introduce Lyra to everyone. When Lyra arrived at the Lubi family, she found that the scene was bigger than she had imagined
This time, Lucy had invited a lot of Cloud Town's upper-class people for her birthday.
Countless luxury cars parked outside the Lubi family's door. Lucy was wearing a traditional cheongsam, standing on the balcony of the second floor with a smile, chatting with several noblewomen. "I heard that your son is dating the daughter of Xu Group. It seems that Mrs. Lubi will have a grandson soon!" Someone said with a smile. "The news spread really quickly. The children haven't officially confirmed it yet. I rarely ask about Nore." "Mrs. Lubi is really lucky..." Just as these flattering words fell, Lucy saw Nore walk in with Lyra. At that moment, Lucy's smile changed. "Isn't she Hank's ex-wife?" someone asked in surprise. "Mrs. Lubi, is she trying to seduce your son?" The news that Nore had proposed to Lyra on the podium had already spread. "That kind of woman will be doomed no matter who she marries," Lucy said awkwardly.
"She must be sticking to Mr. Lubi and not letting go. She doesn't even know who she is!"
Nore brought Lyra into the living room on the first floor and did not hear the discussion on the second floor.
But at this time, standing not far away from them, Hank, who was discussing business with Hanming Lubi, inadvertently heard these words. Hanming Lubi coughed heavily, "I'm sorry. I don't know anything about it and have let Mr. Barnwell see a joke."
He made a gesture of invitation and led Hank to the restaurant inside. "It doesn't matter," Hank said indifferently. "Our company will definitely do our best in this cooperation. Thank you very much for not considering the past and being willing to give us this opportunity." In front of Hank, even an old man like Hanming, who had been in business for a long time, had to show humility. In the past few years, the speed of the Barnwell group's development was really amazing. Especially after the Jones family's accident, Hank swallowed several medium-sized companies in one go, which made the Barnwell group almost become a god-like existence in Cloud Town. As long as he could cooperate with him, all the economic problems of the Lubi family could be solved. Therefore, Hanming worked very hard to facilitate this cooperation. "Hank!" Alma walked over with a cup of coffee and handed it over thoughtfully. Hank held the cup of coffee and took a sip.
The two of them looked like a perfect match. Hanming immediately smiled and said, "Let's talk later. Mr. Barnwell should enjoy the food first."
Then, he immediately walked away and found the butler. He ordered, "Go to the young master immediately and tell him that no matter what, he must stay away from that
Lyra today. I don't want to hear any gossip about them!"
Just a moment ago, he had felt that Hank was very concerned about this matter. After he gave instructions, he went inside to find Lucy Evans.
On this side, Alma was still flirting with Hank. She wanted to be a pair with him in public. This way, she could sit firmly in Mrs. Barnwell's position. Moreover, on the way here, she had learned from Xu Ya that Lyra would also come today as Nore's female companion.
When she thought about how her two weddings had been ruined by Lyra, Alma gritted her teeth in hatred. In her opinion, Lyra simply wanted to use Nore to make a comeback, who had even wanted to seduce Hank. "Hank, there seem to be a lot of your partners downstairs. Can you introduce me to them?" She wanted to quickly integrate into Hank's circle. She could not let go of such a good opportunity today.
Hearing her say this, the man's expression was a little moved. "You have never liked this kind of occasion."
He had brought Alma out once, but because the topic was not suitable, Alma left very early
"We are now husband and wife. I hope to help you in your career." Alma coughed lightly Hank raised his eyebrows and did not say much. "Let's go." Alma smiled and held his hand. Lyra was downstairs. Alma made up her mind that she must beat Lyra today.
Let Lyra be dumped by both Nore and Hank at the same time!
Only in this way could she relieve the anger in her heart.
She held Hank's arm and was as proud as a peacock. She raised her chin and showed an arrogant look.
However, some of the people present had heard of the rumors from a while ago. "Has the Kensley family been saved by the Barnwell group?" "A while ago, Lachlan borrowed money all over the world to hold his daughter's wedding two times. They were both ruined by Hank's ex-wife. It was really embarrassing." "In other words, the two of them are still not real husband and wife?" These words were a bit harsh to Alma, but when Lyra heard them, she felt very comfortable.
She held a plate and tasted delicious food, wandering between these so-called celebrities and listening to these interesting stories.
Of course, she had deliberately ignored some of the gossip, especially the parts related to her.
In the crowd, she could feel a slightly heavy gaze following her. She frowned and glared back in annoyance.
It was not she who was talking about him and Alma. Why was Hank staring at her all
the time?
In the past few years, she had always hoped that the other person would look at her properly. But now that she thought about it, she should have been blinded by lard and her brain should have been flooded.
