Kris had a high standard for men. At that moment, she felt that not many men were worthy of her except for Tony.However, it did not stop her from having fun with other men, but at the same time, she knew that those men could only provide her with temporary happiness as they weren’t her choice of marriage partner.In the past, if this man were to openly hold her in his arms at the company, her face would have turned cold at the start. However, her heart today was filled with many grievances and rage. Furthermore, it so happened that Cameron and Rachel did not comfort her after the incident, but instead, they made her feelings worse, which was why the man’s actions felt a little warmer to her, especially the concern in his eyes for her without even asking a question…“What else could it be? Other than Myra, who else would do this to me…” Her eyes started to turn red as tears rolled down her face.Hayden felt distressed and angry at the same time as he tightened his arms around Kris. “H
With a gentle smile, Myra replied, “Thank you.”However, she did not know that as soon as she left the Hart Group, several staff members started talking about her intensely at the front desk.“Is she really Director Hart’s genuine girlfriend? Have you guys seen how warm and respectful Mr. Clark was toward her just now? Tsk. At least Miss Stark has a good temperament and personality.”“So what? She is still a divorced woman. I still think that she is not worthy of Director Hart.”“Forget about it. If she isn’t worthy, do you actually think you are worthier than her? It’s not for us to decide. In the end, let’s see what Director Hart has to say. No matter who he likes, we have no right to judge him. I heard from a friend working in Stark Group that President Hart personally delivered a bowl of soup to the Stark Group for her yesterday. Doesn’t that mean even his parents have confirmed Miss Stark’s identity as someone next to him?”For a moment, everyone kept on discussing Myra.Naturall
Ivy Jameson suddenly found the scene difficult to bear. I was handling some subsequent work in the United States before rushing back. How could so many things happen without my knowledge within such a short time? Tony was staring at her with an increasingly annoyed look and she walked to his front while extending her hand.There was a bag in her hand and it had a logo of a pharmacy printed on it.“I noticed that you seemed to be having some gastric discomfort during the meeting today. It so happened that I was passing by a pharmacy and I bought some medicine for gastritis,” she sounded concerned. It seemed like she only had eyes for him while completely ignoring the woman standing behind him.Myra was astounded, but she did not stop what she was doing. Instead, she merely regarded the woman in front of her in silence.Almost everybody knows that there are no female assistants on Tony’s office floor. However, this woman looks like an elite staff member. I heard her saying that she noti
vy’s expression soured slightly and she bit on her lower lip with force. Then, she turned to leave Leo’s office without replying to him.Leo, who was left behind, stared in helplessness and full of heartache.In Tony’s office, Myra was about to clean the desk after Ivy left. She was just about to reach out for the bag when a long and prominent arm wrapped itself around her waist. Tony pulled her against him. “Are you jealous?”Tony cocked a brow at her.“No, I’m not,” Myra retorted straight away. She struggled against his embrace, but she gave up since she realized that she couldn’t release herself from his grip. However, she refused to meet his gaze.Tony chuckled in a rumbling tone while sounding seductive and alluring. Myra felt her earlobes burning; she deliberately shoved against him to hide her shyness. Then, she faced him with a stern expression. “You have many people falling for you. I would drown in my own jealousy if I were to feel jealous of everybody!” Myra was being hones
Myra was standing outside the cake shop, and she was about to extend her hand to hail a cab when somebody called out to her from behind, “Myra!”Myra paused before she turned around to look calmly at the rich-looking woman in front of her. “Mrs. Chase.”Eve was sure that Myra must have heard most of her conversation with Elsie. She felt extremely embarrassed for Myra to have heard their conversation, but she was mostly afraid. After a moment of hesitation, she forced herself to speak with Myra anyway. “Myra… I hope that you would pretend as if you haven’t heard what I discussed with Miss Foster earlier.” Currently, Myra is disgusted with the Chase Family. I am also afraid that she might expose my relationship with Elsie to Lyla and things will turn ugly if the latter causes a scene.Myra regarded Eve’s anxious expression and she suddenly felt as though she was very stupid in the past. How did I ever trust what Eve said when she’s clearly brushing me off by placating me verbally?Myra’
“We were lucky you were there last night. I dragged Tilly into the mess; fortunately, she’s fine.”Elliot chuckled but he changed the topic swiftly and they started chatting about something else. Myra, however, did not notice the cunning and mischievous sparkle flash through his eyes.During their journey, she phoned Tony to remind him to take care of his health. She advised him to have his dinner on time while instructing him to head back to the Hart Residence after work.Well, Miss Ivy’s speech has left an impact today. He is a career-oriented man in his thirties, and his stomach and lungs are not as healthy as they once were. I am sure that Old Madam Hart will take good care of him if he returns to the Hart Residence. There are more people there too, so he won’t feel lonely.“Are you really not coming back tonight?” Tony asked again from the other end of the line. His voice was husky—he was most probably smoking out of boredom.Myra glanced at Elliot—who was pretending to focus on
Mrs. Fletcher was unhappy but she nodded reluctantly under Rachel’s scrutiny. “Mrs. Stark, you are too kind, which is why she bullies you. Please be careful later, Mrs. Stark. She seems to be aggressive, so don’t let her harm the child in your womb…” Mrs. Fletcher muttered quietly.Mrs. Fletcher, what nonsense are you spouting?” Rachel’s expression changed slightly. “Why would Miss Myra harm her biological younger brother?”“Who knows…” Mrs. Fletcher tried to hold back but she couldn’t help but mutter, “Everybody’s been saying that she is back for the family assets. Now that she knows that you are pregnant with a son, Mrs. Stark, I am sure that she would target you with all she has. Mrs. Stark, you have to be careful!”“She won’t.” Rachel turned to Mrs. Fletcher and reassured, “I trust that Myra is a good person and that she would not do that.”Mrs. Fletcher was about to say something but Rachel had already made her way into the house.Myra did not expect Rachel to maintain the style
Rachel even started wiping tears away when she mentioned that Cameron had been missing Myra ever since the latter left. She even claimed that Cameron would prefer for her to move back home since she had divorced Sean.At the mention of Sean, the three of them seemed to hate him with a vengeance. They started scolding him a good deal by claiming that he is ungrateful and short-sighted. They even proclaimed that he would live a short life, and that he is an indecent and good-for-nothing man. The trio were acting as if they bore a grudge on Myra’s behalf.Myra merely listened to them without responding and her face was void of expression. In the end, the three of them quietened down, most probably because they felt awkward. Then, they started chatting about current company matters.“Myra, Kris is still young so she is inexperienced in a lot of things. You should give her pointers in the company. You do not have to hold back if she makes a mistake at work—feel free to reprimand her.” Rach
