“Mrs. Walton, you did yell for somebody to stop, but you did not mention anybody’s name. Besides, it didn’t sound like how an elder would behave toward the younger generation. Well, excuse me, I wasn’t aware that you were asking me to hold up, Mrs. Walton,” Myra retorted calmly without backing down.Shelly was rendered speechless by Maya’s response and her chest started to heave in anger.“Well, don’t you have a smart mouth? However, I heard that your mother passed away early in life, so I suppose this is expected since she couldn’t educate you well. In any case, as this is a banquet by the Hart Family, you should take note of your behavior, Miss Stark. Please know your place because things will turn ugly if you were to stir up trouble.”Myra hated it whenever others mentioned her mother in such a condescending tone. Hence, her expression darkened immediately. She had been in a foul mood from the beginning and her mind was now in a mess, so she answered harshly, “My mother passed away
“Ouch, my back, it’s killing me…” Shelly glared at Myra, who was in Tony’s arms. “All thanks to that woman! I wouldn’t have fallen if it weren’t for her! Her acting is rather convincing now! Did you fall and hurt yourself? Why are you kicking up a fuss after your fall since you are so young?! I have never seen a more pretentious woman than you!”“Mrs. Walton, did you hear what the madam said just now? Myra wouldn’t have fallen if you hadn’t dragged her down with you. How could you possibly blame her for your fall?” Upon hearing Shelly’s accusation, Elliot, who was right behind Tony, sneered. He was looking at her in disdain.Gideon scowled at Elliot. “Young Master Elliot, my mom did not do it on purpose. The lights are dim and there are many people around us. She must have been mistaken.”Elliot was about to refute him when Tony interrupted in a deep, stern voice, “Elliot, get Philip to the second floor.”Tony had a grave expression as there was worry in his eyes while he focused on M
The word ‘divorce’ had slipped through Sean’s lips once again. Never in his wildest dreams did he expect himself to divorce the woman in front of him—the one whom he had once been madly in love with. As my dreams gradually come true, I have to admit that my feelings have changed and that I have fallen in love with Myra. I have no idea when it started, but I have been suffering since Myra isn’t mine. Somehow, I have started to feel excited about the slightest news about her. Besides, I would even lose sleep over the small things involving her. However, I am also not sure when it started, but I no longer harbor the feelings I once had for the woman now standing in front of me.“Divorce?!” Lyla’s body stiffened straight away. It was such a simple term, but it felt like thousands of poisonous arrows piercing her heart. She stumbled a couple of steps backward while staring in disbelief at the man who was in front of her. “Sean, what did you say?”Nevertheless, she shook her head violently
“Lending me a hand?” Sean raised his voice and mocked. “Isn’t it the same to abort the child with drugs as opposed to her having the abortion at the hospital? Lyla, I finally see what kind of woman you are. Did you believe that I would forgive everything you have done just because you’ve explained yourself?” He clenched his fists. “If you are still who you are, things might have worked out between us, but we are no longer the same people as before.”“What do you mean that I am no longer who I used to be?!” Lyla started sobbing and cackling simultaneously. “How would you know that I was not like this?! Sean, when a man no longer loves or spoils a woman, she would be left with no choice, but to do whatever she can to get what she wants. The ‘me’ from the past is just the same as who I am right now. The only difference is that once upon a time, I used to have your love, so I could assume the role of a simple princess. However, you are now in love with someone else! You claim that you see
Upon listening to what happened inside the room, his expression soured. After that, he made a sarcastic remark to those around him, “Maybe the young woman deliberately bribed the doctor so that she can marry into the Hart Family. Well, from my point of view, it’s best to get an examination in the hospital. Otherwise, they might be fooled by a young woman working with a doctor and she would end up with the Hart Family!” If Myra is pregnant, it will be even more difficult for Gemma to be married to Tony. In that case, the series of plans that the Walton Family have will not proceed smoothly!Edward may not have recognized Philip, but everybody from Bradfort City knew of him. Therefore, upon hearing Edward’s sarcastic comments, they retorted in disdain, “If she is able to bribe Young Master Philip, it means that she definitely has the ability to marry into the Hart Family.”Upon hearing that someone went against him, Edward felt unhappy and was about to refute the person when he saw anot
However, when Gemma learned downstairs that Myra was pregnant, her face immediately darkened. “That b*tch doesn’t deserve to be pregnant with Tony’s child!” She squeezed the wine glass so tightly that it almost broke.She had already been furious that night when she saw the lovey-dovey interactions between Myra and Tony. If Gideon had not held her back, she wanted to run to Myra and give her a good slap so that Myra would not dare to be ostentatious.“Gemma, you must understand that it will be more difficult for you to marry into the Hart Family once Myra is pregnant with Tony’s child.” Gideon’s face also became sullen.“You don’t have to tell me that, Gideon. I understand the implications well!” With that, Gemma placed the wine glass on a small table next to the swimming pool as a savage expression flashed in her eyes. “What do you think is the possibility of that b*tch having a miscarriage?”Before he could reply, Kris, who had been silent all this while, suddenly snorted in laughte
However, Sasha was in a state of disarray at this moment. The car had really knocked her, so she shakily hobbled over to Myra. Apart from that, she even had an injury on her face.Her beautiful image was gone—not only were her clothes wrinkled, her hair was disheveled and there was a panicked expression on her face.As soon as she grabbed onto the window, she cried desperately in front of Myra. “Myra, I’m sorry. I’ve really learned my lessons this time around. I shouldn’t have provoked you at the hotel and sent your video to Gemma. I was too blinded by my own desires and forgot about Director Hart’s warning. I really learned my lessons and I beg you to ask Director Hart to take a pity on us! If this continues, the Hay Group is going to be destroyed!”Sasha sobbed pathetically. Back when Tony warned me, I should have listened to him obediently. Otherwise, this would not happen—after spending so much effort to pull Wallace Enterprise over to our side, everything is ruined in an instant.
There was only one thing on her mind—Sasha mentioned that Tony did not deliberately allow her to get her hands on the video, which caused a conflicted expression to appear in Myra’s eyes.…On that night, it was only at around 2:00 AM that Tony returned when Myra was sound asleep. However, she opened her eyes sleepily after feeling the other side of the bed slightly sinking. Even though she had waited for him for a short while, she ended up dozing off until he finished his shower and got into the bed.With fresh water droplets on his body, he found that he had woken her up and pulled her into his embrace. Then, he spoke in a low voice, “I’m sorry I woke you up.”Since Myra had been sleeping a lot for the night, she was no longer tired after seeing that Tony was back. She opened her eyes and looked at him. “How’s the apartment?”He kissed her forehead. “Nothing much. It’s just a normal burglar who broke into your apartment to steal some stuff. He stole a few access cards from somewhere
