Myra watched as the car drove away. Then, she adjusted her clothes. The moment she turned around, she came face-to-face with Kris’ shocked and suspicious gaze studying her uncertainly. “Whose car did you just get out of?”Myra coldly glanced at Kris before walking around her and heading toward the Stark Tower.“Stop!” Kris hurriedly chased after Myra and grabbed Myra’s arm tightly. “I asked you; whose car did you get out of?!”When Kris walked out of the building, she happened to see a black Maybach stopped in front of the building. It was the latest model in the market. She originally assumed that it belonged to one of the company’s presidents that was here at the Stark Group to discuss business. Just as she was about to go up and greet them, she saw Myra coming out of the car with a shy smile! Moreover, she noticed a tall man sitting in the driver’s seat during the short exchange between those two. Unfortunately, she couldn’t see who the man was!Didn’t Myra just get divorced?! How
The other party replied gently, “Sure. You should quickly get back to work too. Don’t disturb your father and your sister during their discussion.”Kris obediently made a non-committal sound in reply and turned off her phone. After that, she went into Cameron’s pantry, brought out a glass of lemonade for Myra, and placed it on the desk in front of Cameron. For a moment, she seemed like she was about to call out to Myra but lowered her head instead when she saw the ugly expression on Myra’s face. She turned to Cameron and said, “Dad, I’m going back to work.” Then, she hastily left the office. The office door quickly closed behind her amidst the strange atmosphere in the air.In the meantime, Myra stared at the man in front of her. Although he was 50, he remained in high spirits and looked no more than 40 due to good health maintenance. His handsome looks from his younger days could still be seen from his sharp facial features, and his eyes gleamed with a businessman’s shrewd intelligen
“How can I have something as dirty as a connection with the Stark Group?” Tilly raised an eyebrow at Myra while smirking. She shook her finger with a cheeky smile, pretending to be mysterious. “I might not have any connection with the Stark Group, but I have a connection with the Hart Group!” When she mentioned ‘the Hart Group’, her eyes practically shone with delight. She seemed like she could barely restrain herself from gossiping and quickly wrapped herself around Myra. “Miss Stark, I’ll tell you the truth. Mr. Hart is the one who asked me to come and help you! Haha! He personally offered me a salary! Because of that, I’m receiving a double salary! How could I turn down such a great offer?! Therefore, I made an unscrupulous decision to take up this sacred mission!”Looking at Tilly’s excitement, Myra felt her face burning with embarrassment. Even so, her heart felt warm inside. That man is always thinking about me. Knowing how stubborn I can be, he is probably worried that I won’t
“You!” Kris was so enraged by Tilly’s words that the flames of her rage flared wildly inside her chest. Then, she suddenly narrowed her eyes and looked at Tilly. “Tilly Quinn, don’t forget who it was that placed you in the position of the Design Department Director’s assistant!” It’s just that I didn’t know Myra would eventually take over as the Design Department Director at the time!“So, you accepted Mr. Logan’s favor too. Why are you glaring at me?” Tilly pretended to be innocent.“This is just great! You double-faced traitor! Knowing that Myra was going to be your superior, you quickly kissed up to her. I’ll make you regret it!” After Kris finished ranting, she glared at both of them and left.Tilly patted her chest. “Phew. What a fierce woman. No wonder Mr. Hart asked me to come and help you, Miss Stark! That distorted face of hers made me think that she was going to eat me up!”“She won’t eat you.” Myra glanced at Kris’ back indifferently. “But, you need to be careful of her in
Besides, Old Master Stark handed his will over to Conan back then so that Conan could bring it out when the time was right.Tony’s slanted eyes narrowed slightly. “She told me that she wants to obtain the Stark Group with her own strength. She wants to give it a go.”“Of course. It’s only right to let her try.” Conan chuckled while giving Tony a meaningful look. “But, I also know that you won’t just sit idly by and let her try all by herself.”Tony wasn’t upset that Conan had seen through his inner thoughts. “So?”“So…” Conan shrugged. “This is the second condition I have before allowing you to marry Myra on behalf of her grandfather and her mother.” Needless to say, the first condition is that Myra loves him.“There’s a third condition too?” Tony scowled.“Of course.” Conan raised his eyebrow. “I don’t want her to get bullied, no matter where those issues may spring from. Therefore, you still have many things to deal with.”Tony understood the implication behind those words. “It look
In fact, I didn’t even get any gifts for them!Meow’s happy cry sounded from the back seat. It was joyfully playing with a ball in the back seat.On the other hand, Myra was feeling quite uneasy. Even though there were times when the words were already on the tip of her tongue, she hesitated to speak. Moreover, she was so nervous that her palms were covered in a sheen of sweat by the time the car arrived at the villa area.The car gradually stopped by the side of the road. Tony unbuckled her safety belt and suddenly pulled the woman next to him into his lap. His expression was filled with a rare sense of helplessness as he kissed her on her lips and pressed his forehead against hers. “Are you nervous?”“Yeah…” She lowered her head and slowly wrapped her arms around his slim yet powerful waist.His eyes narrowed slightly. “I have a way to make you feel less nervous.” After saying that, he kissed her again.She lifted her head with a surprised exclamation, her large and distinct eyes lo
“Woof, woof… Woof, woof…” The excited barks of a large, furry dog rang out from next to them.Myra suddenly realized that Tony had had his way with her while ignoring the presence of the dog that was in the car with them. Lifting her head, she saw that the pervy dog had watched the two of them doing such embarrassing acts from the start to the end without missing a single beat. Thus, she felt even more ashamed than before.“Drive properly!” She slapped her palm against the man’s chest. Unfortunately, his chest was full of firm muscles—hitting him only caused her to hurt herself in the process.Tony studied her embarrassed and angry expression, his thin lips curving slightly in response. Catching her fingers, he planted a kiss on them while looking straight at her. “Aren’t I about to start driving soon?” The look in his eyes was very meaningful.Although she had not noticed the situation outside just now, he did. The car windows were specially treated so that nobody could look in from
Myra straightened out her clothes. However, their vigorous exercise just now had long since caused her tidy office lady outfit to become a crumpled mess. Moreover, she even felt her legs giving out from under her when she got out of the car. Thus, she desperately steadied herself so as not to embarrass herself in front of the two men. Nodding at Sebastian and Shawn in a slightly awkward manner, she said, “Old Master Hart, Deputy Mayor Hart. I’m sorry for dropping by so suddenly.”Sebastian noticed her slightly reddened eyes, then he glanced at his grandson’s stiff back. After that, a difficult expression surfaced on his face. He more or less guessed what had happened and immediately glared at his grandson fiercely. “Myra was still in the car! Why did you just walk off all alone?!”At that moment, he completely forgot about his dissatisfaction toward Myra and began verbally attacking Tony instead. He couldn’t help thinking, How can this man be so ignorant of what’s good and bad when he
