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
Kris had obviously noticed the book, causing her to be jealous toward Myra.It was blatantly obvious that Myra had better luck than her.Tony treated Myra well and the Hart Family was also kind to her. Now that she was pregnant with his child, her position and status were different from before as she was now carrying the first great-grandchild of the Hart Family.The folks from the upper-class society of Bradfort City had personally congratulated her yesterday.On the other hand, Kris merely showed off her new boyfriend, Gideon, yesterday. Apart from the fact that the Walton Family was not as prestigious as the Hart Family, his family also disapproved of her and sarcastically spoke to her. Apart from that, she suddenly felt that he did not love her as much as she thought he would. On top of that, she could not understand him at all.Her plan with Cameron yesterday had also failed last night. As Myra became someone harder to deal with, Kris wondered how she would be able to take reveng
She did not want to know what exactly had happened in the past because she liked her current life. She loved Tony and his family and she did not want anything to damage it.Sean’s expression changed—he gritted his teeth as he answered, “Myra, I already know that you were not responsible for Lyla’s miscarriage back then. She was the one who lied—it was because of my mother, but Lyla kept it a secret from me. I also knew that she did many nasty things to you after she returned so that you would leave me. I know everything now and I will get a divorce from her. So, Myra… Can you return to my side?”He looked more sincere as he spoke.In fact, he had been considering that question for quite some time.Sean did not ask Eve about this as he did not see the point in doing so. Throughout the entire event, his mother obviously played a dirty role, which caused him to regret the divorce with Myra. Hence, he was sincere about asking Myra to return to him this time around, even though she was alr
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
As Myra’s vision blurred, she fell into Heather’s arms, hearing the latter’s anxious voice calling her name.The sudden onset of pain was identical to the headache she had experienced before, but this time, it affected her whole body. Myra gripped her chest tightly, the pain threatening to cease her heartbeat. Without delay, Heather lifted her friend up.She then took Myra to the hospital in her car, but something peculiar happened. A short while after arriving at the hospital, Myra could feel that the pain had vanished.It was exactly like her headache last time, which left as suddenly as it came. Heather’s eyebrows creased in a frown as she wondered what was going on with Myra.“What did you see at the rockery?” Myra was staring in a particular direction when she fainted, but when Heather followed her gaze, she didn’t see anything out of the ordinary.“A cave,” Myra answered with a hollow look in her eyes.The frown on Heather’s brows deepened. How could a simple cave cause her to b
It was on the day before the wedding that Heather heard from Myra that the best man was Lucas. The moment Heather heard that name, she knew that he was one of Tony’s bros. She tried to recall Lucas’s features, remembering that he didn’t talk much and seemed to be more mature.“So, what do you think?” Myra asked teasingly, “You did say you want a best man who is tall and handsome.” She jokingly reminded Heather of what she said before.Heather smiled in response, which in turn caused Myra to feel slightly curious about it. The two proceeded to sip their drinks in silence.Myra’s wedding was just around the corner, and Heather was glad to see that Myra looked comfortable and relaxed. Myra had slight pre-wedding anxiety before, so it was nice to see that she had adjusted herself.“I’m going to give you an amazing gift,” Heather said, grinning.Myra replied, “Then I will also give you a superb gift in return.”“Why not just give me a gold card?” Heather joked.Looking at the time, Myra re
During this period, Heather looked at Myra from time to time. The atmosphere around the table was strange, giving her a sense of foreboding. The gaze that Myra returned was intriguing, as well—it made her feel uneasy.After lunch, as everyone sat around the table chatting, Heather glanced down at the time on her cell phone with a slight frown. Noting the movement, Myra realized that she could not keep Heather any longer, for lunch had already used up quite a bit of Heather’s time.Meanwhile, the clock read 2.00 PM. It was time for Heather to be at work. After dithering for a long moment, Heather decided to be direct and opened her mouth to tell Myra, “I have to go to work, so I’m taking my leave.”As it was, Heather rarely got to visit Hart Residence and had no wish to leave so hastily, but time did not permit her to linger. With a slight nod of her head, Myra responded, “Of course! Go on.” Of those at the table, she was the only one who could truly understand how busy Heather was.Fe
Tony had assured Myra previously that Philip and Lucas would surely show up if Heather agreed to come over. As expected, the two of them reached a while later.While Philip and Lucas didn’t confirm their attendance in the group, Tilly and Elliot confirmed that they couldn’t make it. As Tilly was completely overwhelmed by her public affairs, it had been a while since she and Elliot were separated due to her work. Hence, it was normal that Elliot would go look for Tilly when he had free time.While Shawn was busy every day as the vice-mayor, he obviously wasn’t free during the noon, so Estelle was the only one who replied in the group.‘Wait for me. I’ll be here in a bit since I wouldn’t want to miss out on Myra’s food.’ After last night, she wasn’t as afraid of Heather any longer. Moreover, it wasn’t as if she had to spend time with Heather alone because everyone else would be there as well.Since Estelle was the only person left that hadn’t reached, it wasn’t appropriate for them to s
After a long moment, Myra replied faintly, “We can have only one best man. Who should we pick?” There would be a quandary if they really intended to match Heather with the best man.Then, the choice for best man would become complicated, as there were currently two candidates from which Myra and Tony had to choose the one most suited to Heather.“Well, from your point of view, who would suit Heather more—Philip or Lucas?” It wasn’t up to Tony to decide, since Myra knew Heather better, anyway.“It’s hard to say. They both have their merits,” Myra replied hesitantly, wondering if she should have them meet up once more before the wedding.It felt too improper for them only to have met under the flickering lights of Zion Club and the influence of alcohol. There was a possibility that in broad daylight, Heather could feel a different spark altogether with the two candidates.“We still need to see what Heather thinks,” Tony suggested meaningfully.“Let’s find a time to meet up tomorrow,” sh
Prior to Tony and Myra’s wedding, Estelle, who was busy with her shootings overseas, rushed back. Not to mention, Tilly, who was on her annual holiday, canceled her holiday and came back as well. Immediately, Myra felt like Bradfort City had become lively again because it had been a long time since she met them.However, Tony, on the other hand, valued Myra over his friends and didn’t bother about them, as he was too busy spending time with her. After some discussion, they all decided to meet each other at Zion Club, and the Messenger group chat that went quiet for a long time became active again.Besides that, Myra also added Heather into the group. This was Heather’s first group chat on Messenger because she barely used it if it weren’t for Myra. The group got even more lively with her arrival while Tony warned the others as he figured that Heather was probably not used to lively chats like this. ‘You guys better behave well and don’t scare her away.’Unexpectedly, Heather replied,
After staring at each other for a few seconds, Evan looked away while Matthias stared at him from above. Matthias! How am I supposed to know when I know my way around girls?“Jobbery,” Evan said.It seemed like Matthias found Evan’s suggestion interesting as he gave Evan a knowing look while Evan only continued talking after a while. “Since Heather is completely focused on her work, it would be better for you to approach her under the name of work.”Heather probably wouldn’t be happy with Matthias if he kept approaching her anytime he could, especially when she was working. After all, most people wouldn’t be happy to be disturbed by private matters during work. Moreover, Matthias would just be ruining his chances, considering how career-oriented Heather was.“Seeing how the partnership discussion with Langston Group hasn’t reached an agreement, I don’t have the time to do anything else,” Matthias felt his head hurting as he said. He really wanted to work together with Langston Group f
On one hand, Myra and Tony were happily making their wedding preparations. On the other hand, things were getting worse. In comparison, Matthias appeared to be in a bleak situation.Heather thought that he deserved the outcome. Hence, she could never sympathize with him. Her failed relationship in the past did not cripple her, and she had never acted out like Matthias.In fact, she held a disdain for people like him who would cry and wail over relationship issues. She felt a heightened annoyance at Matthias, but she did not know if the feeling rose because she was angry at the fact that he was deeply in love with Myra.She was disturbed by his obsession with Myra, but she would never openly admit to it. Moreover, she had no right to confront him about his love for Myra.Under Evan’s encouragement, Matthias mustered up his courage to do something. He could not keep languishing when Myra’s wedding was nearing. At the very least, he wanted to attend her wedding with grace. Before that, h
When the date of Myra’s wedding drew closer, Matthias seemed to have fallen into a trance.Heather had completely given up on him, for she always looked down on men like him. Seriously though, what is his point of showing his despondency like a drama queen?Finally, it was Evan who called her and begged her to pay a visit to Matthias’s place.“I’m super busy. I don’t have the time to do so,” she rejected emotionally. Even after listening to Evan describing Matthias’s desperate situation, she had nothing but disdain for him.At that point, Matthias was basically living in his wine cellar and gave up on running Locke Group. His behavior attracted complaints from the board of directors. Even Heather was shocked to find Matthias throwing a huge fit over Myra’s wedding. In her eyes, his action was utterly despicable.“Please tell him: He does not deserve love if he only acts out like a child. He needs to learn how to love someone right before he gets all dramatic over someone again,” she h
