In the meeting room of the Hart Group, Tony sat in his seat. His left hand supported the weight of his forehead while his eyebrows knitted together into a frown as he listened to the report from his employees.A solemn air hung in the office as everyone concentrated on their jobs.Suddenly, the knocks on the door broke the tense atmosphere.Tony pursed his lips slightly as the door of the meeting room was pushed open. With a frown on his face, Leo walked into the room. He had fully comprehended that he had interrupted the meeting, so he quickly mumbled a ‘sorry about this’ under his breath. The meeting was usually not allowed to be interrupted halfway like that, but Leo did not notice the peculiar expression on everyone’s faces. Instead, he walked straight to Tony and spoke to him in a low voice.Tony’s face immediately stiffened. While everyone held their breaths as they waited for his reaction, he had already risen from his chair and closed the tip of his pen. With a cold expression
Myra suddenly felt that she was running out of breath, so she took a deep, slow breath to stop the pain in her heart from spreading.There were some noticeable hints in Sean’s words.In that instant, many different scenarios went through her mind. For example, when Sasha asked for her help the other night, she emphasized that Tony did not intentionally allow her to obtain the video before she left. It would have been better for her if she did not cover for him, but after she explained herself, Myra became more suspicious. Sasha’s only good will had made matters worse at that moment.The golden Aston Martin had also planted some doubts in Myra’s heart. Needless to say, when Captain Fowler visited her, he let the cat out of the bag that Tony asked him to treat her well before she was thrown into jail, but something had gone wrong temporarily. Captain Fowler sounded like he was afraid of being blamed by her.The various pieces of evidence from the different incidents proved that at least
Tony did not immediately drive to the Stark Group, but he went to the Chase Residence instead.On the winding mountain road, he ran into Sebastian, who had just finished fishing. It was rare for him to desire to head home by foot, but halfway through the journey, he was so exhausted that he could not continue with his journey anymore. He did not want to be a disgrace by asking his driver to pick him up, so he was brooding on the problem.At that moment, Tony’s car sped past him. Recognizing his youngest grandson, Sebastian chased after the car as he yelled, “Tony! Stop the car! Tony! Tony!”However, Tony did not realize that Sebastian was there. Inhaling the exhaust fumes had caused Sebastian’s face to turn slightly green.Tony had received a phone call, but he hung up without even looking at the caller. Then, he opened the trunk of the car that contained a document wrapped in a kraft paper bag. It had been laying there for quite some time.After he exited the car, he held the documen
Even though it was not time to get off work, Myra could no longer continue with her paperwork. After letting Tilly know about it, Myra walked to the elevator after she packed her things up.Once she left Stark Group, she planned to hail a cab to leave. However, a black sports car slowly drove to her in the silence. As the car window slowly rolled down, the door was opened to reveal the driver’s face. Then, Tony exited the car.He was still in his tidy business suit. Before they left in the morning, she was the one who matched his clothes for him and helped him with his necktie. He had a slight smile as well as a gentle expression on his handsome face.Upon seeing Myra’s shock and vacant eyes, he walked over with a smile. “Why are you so shocked to see me here?”She subconsciously glanced at the time. Logically speaking, he will only be here in half an hour’s time. Even though she had ended work earlier, she still ran into Tony waiting for her in front of the company.“Are you tired?”
Her sudden question was not to demand his reason for doing those actions to her, nor was she judging the despicable means he had used.Looking at the honesty in Myra’s eyes, the love in Tony’s eyes was almost overflowing. He caressed her head as he replied, “I have never thought of hurting you. Trust me.”With a pause, there was a slight exasperation in his tone. “I can’t control the process, though. Myra, all you loved was Sean back then. I was so jealous that I was going insane and I just wanted to be with you as soon as possible.”Myra was both stubborn and strong. Even though the truth was staring at her in the face, she stubbornly believed that Sean could understand her love toward him. However, Tony could not bear to allow her to continue waiting with such stubbornness.She felt slightly embarrassed when he mentioned that all she loved was Sean. It was true that she had rejected all of Tony’s advances back then. At that moment, she was already thinking about leaving Sean, but sh
Estelle had insisted Myra wear the outfit as a present for Tony.“Myra, you have already been with Tony for so long, yet you are still so shy! Let me tell you this—all men like women who are open and proactive, especially someone like Tony who has been single for a long time. Aren’t you guys trying for kids? I can guarantee that if you wear it a few more times for him, you will get pregnant soon!” Those were Estelle’s exact words back then. Before she finished speaking, she even reminded, “Remember to switch off the lights.”Myra had seen that set of lingerie. If the lights were not switched off, she wouldn’t have the guts to wear it.She initially planned to buy another present for Tony, but in the end, she decided against that. When she went out this morning, she placed the lingerie in her bag even though she was embarrassed. After all, I can’t just leave it hanging.Of course, Tony knew that it was not meant for him to wear, so he kissed her lips in amusement. “Wear it for me tonig
“Let you go?” Gideon laughed lightly. “If you marry someone else, it might be possible. I’m giving you another chance—leave Sean, have an abortion, and return to me.”“Director Walton!” Lyla clenched her fists which were dangling next to her body. “I know you have a fiancee now—it’s Kris. You guys are already together—”“So?”He finished the contents in his wine glass and placed it rather forcefully on the bar. The glass immediately shattered into pieces.Cold sweat had gathered in her palms.Since she had been with him for the past two years, she knew the type of person he was—obstinate, cruel, stubborn. He was basically a monster. If anyone had infuriated him, he would make the rest of that person’s life I quite unfortunate.“Lyla, there are many men for you to choose from, yet you want to marry Sean. I know that you have done quite a lot of things to force Myra to leave him back then. It’s impossible for you to continue staying at the Chase Family anyway. If you come to me, I will
After they cuddled in the car for a while, Tony finally released Myra from his embrace.When she was about to get out of the car, he suddenly pulled her hand back.Hence, she turned and looked at him questioningly. He merely smiled and pulled her over before he planted a kiss on her forehead. “I’ll pick you up later in the afternoon. Take care.”Myra returned the kiss on his chin. “When you arrive, call me. Don’t just stay silent.”She remembered that he had quietly waited for her at the company. Even though she did not say it out loud, she felt rather sorry for him.Tony smiled slightly and caressed his chin on her face. It was only after agreeing to her request that he let her go.Myra was in a pretty good mood after they had talked things out. No matter what, it was definitely better than brooding on the problem herself.When she was walking up the stairs, a female employee hastily ran into her. Myra’s expression changed when she lost her balance on the stairs. Fortunately, Genevie
