Sir, Please Mellow Down A Bit novel Chapter 407

Chapter 407 Thank You for Your Invitation

Lyra was indeed a little tired. The car slowly drove forward and she fell asleep in a daze. She had a very unhappy dream. When she opened her eyes, her forehead was covered in cold sweat. In front of her was a wet towel handed over by Xuanze, and it was still warm. “Are you alright?” Lyra swallowed a mouthful of water and shook her head. “Have we arrived at your house?” As soon as she looked up, she could see the exaggerated children’s playground outside the window. Xuanze showed a faint embarrassment, “You slept too deeply. I called you a few times, but you didn’t respond. So I took the initiative and brought you here first.” “Dinner is ready. Let’s eat before you leave,” he continued. Without giving Lyra a chance to react, he carried the big teddy bear into the villa. What he did not tell Lyra was that today was his daughter’s birthday banquet. Xuanze saw through her thoughts at a glance and patted Ni’er on the shoulder. The little girl immediately smiled sweetly and threw herself into Lyra’s arms. “Auntie Lyra, I asked Dad to invite you here. I spend my birthday with Dad every year. Can you stay this year?” She blinked her eyes and looked innocent. She grabbed Lyra’s clothes tightly with her little hands, as if she was afraid that she would turn around and leave. Looking at that little face, no one could say anything to refuse.

“That’s great!” Ni’er cheered happily after Lyra nodded, and made a special trip to the kitchen to bring out the little cookies she had made with her nanny aunt to share with Lyra.

“This biscuit is her treasure, and I only got one.” When Xuanze mentioned his daughter, his eyes became warm and gentle. “Go upstairs and change into your new clothes. We’ll wait for you here.” He looked at Lyra, who was stuffed full of biscuits, and picked up his daughter lovingly. Ni’er blinked, then nodded heavily. “Okay!” He watched Ni’er go upstairs, then turned around. “Sorry, I didn’t tell you in advance. If you have something to do, you can…”

“It doesn’t matter. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have come empty-handed.” Lyra was a bit embarrassed and suddenly glanced at the kitchen. “Why don’t I make a little dessert for Ni’er? Do you have milk?” “No…” Before Xuanze could say anything, Lyra had already opened the fridge.

She took the eggs and milk from the next floor and muttered, “Butter and strawberries!”

Xuanze stood at the door, and his tall figure jolted in a trance.

In this kitchen, other than the servants, there was no other woman who had ever used it.

At a certain moment, his heart was no longer wandering, but he really wanted to start over again.

He stood under the beam at the door of the kitchen, as if he was sighing with emotion, but also as if he was talking to himself, “It’s been a long time since this family has had a sense of life, but today you came, it seems that everything has changed.”

At that moment, Lyra turned on the smoking machine. She pulled the frying pan, looked at the door, and raised her voice. “What did you say?” “Dad, come quickly.” Ni’er shouted from upstairs.

There was nothing else in the small box, but the invitation letter for Mr. Carson’s private party. Lyra was already ready to sleep. Only then did she remember to go to her pocket to get her phone. Then, she opened the box. “It’s good that you like it.” Xuanze held his phone and heaved a sigh of relief. “Then tomorrow night…” Before he could finish, Lyra kept thanking him.

“I was too excited, so I took the liberty to call you. I won’t disturb your rest. Goodbye.” Before he could say if she wanted him to pick her up tonight, he was interrupted by the sound of the phone hanging up. Xuanze patted the chair in the study. He muttered, “Lyra…” Lyra put down her phone and hugged the invitation. She was so excited that she couldn’t sleep.

She still had a chance to turn things around!

The next evening. Ellie knocked on the Barnwell family’s door. “Mr. Barnwell, my friend has something to do at the last minute, so there was an extra invitation. I don’t have many friends in the country, so I thought of you.” She paused for a moment and said, “It’s also kind of giving us both another chance.” “I am not interested.”

Hank’s face was cold, and he was about to close the door. Ellie stuck the invitation in the doorway in time. The man immediately looked at her with cold eyes. “This is a top-notch gathering in the design circle. Are you sure you don’t want to go?” Ellie steadied her mind and pretended to be calm.
