Doing the math, it was about time for the launch. Only, the situation in that area wasn’t so great. “David, please help me appease and calm everyone. Chase Group will not owe the employees a single penny.” Myra knew that if the foreman came to ask about this matter himself, then probably all the workers on the construction site were already on edge. She had to calm them down. “The Sunny Bay Project was approved by Hart Group. They will certainly not owe the workers money.” It was only then did David breathe a sigh of relief and smiled. “We feel more relieved with Miss Stark’s reassurance. By the way, Director Hart also came to the site today—” “Watch out!” Suddenly, a scream cut through the buzzing construction site, interrupting David. Myra only felt as if there was something with a great momentum plunging down, the aim of which was her head. At that moment, her body went rigid and she couldn’t react. Out of nowhere, she was pulled into a warm embrace that had a faint tobacc
“Director Hart…” Myra called out in a hoarse voice.Tony looked up at her blankly. Then, he lowered his gaze and continued to bandage the wound.“Myra, there’s no need to thank me. This construction site belongs to Hart Group. Even if it wasn’t you who was in danger, I would not have let anyone get hurt on my construction site.”It was as if he was reminding her of the fact that she had asked him to keep a distance from her the other night.Myra was stunned but before she came back to her senses, Tony had already finished bandaging his wound.He stood up and threw his suit aside, revealing his white shirt underneath. His cuffs were folded and his dark blue tie was meticulously straight. Tony’s facial features were like God’s finest work and his cheekbones were sharp. It was a sunny day, but he exuded a cold aura. Even if he was at a construction site with a helmet on, it couldn’t hide his handsomeness and freshness.“Leo, do I have anything else scheduled for today?” Tony asked Leo, w
The last point was to help everyone understand Tony’s injury better. However, the fact that Tony went to the construction site for no reason and saved Miss Stark from being hit by a brick was intriguing news.Everyone naturally knew who Miss Stark was.Lucas chuckled, “Wow, Tony, you are a hero!”Leo instantly felt a cold glare from Tony and knew that he had said too much. However, his mission was already complete so he hurriedly shut his mouth and left the room.Meanwhile, Philip grabbed the first aid kit he always kept in his bag and walked up to Tony.“Tony, if this wound is not treated well, it will cause inflammation and it will be troublesome.”Tony casually pulled a chair and sat down. Then, he squinted and said placidly, “Don’t worry about it.”Hearing this, Philip was taken aback. Does that mean we’ll deal with his wound later?Soon, the four of them sat around the table and an exquisite dinner was served.“Tony, the three of us discussed the Hilliview project today,” Lucas s
No one bothered about Elliot anymore, for Philip had already opened the private room door, and the woman standing outside was indeed Myra. She was still wearing an OL outfit from Chanel, the contrast of the light gray fabric against her fair skin giving her a gentle and comfortable feeling. Her long hair was tied back, baring her slender and delicate neck, while there was faint makeup on her exquisite face. It was just right, neither too plain nor too outstanding.Upon seeing Philip, she was stunned for a moment before she murmured in mild embarrassment, “I’m sorry. I think I got the wrong room.”Just when she was about to turn around, Philip chuckled lightly. “You must be Miss Stark, yes? Director Hart is indeed in this room, so do come in.”Myra halted, finally remembering that she’d once seen the man in front of her. That time, he gave me a hand during the Hart Family’s banquet. Thus, she looked over his shoulder into the room. Smoke lingered in the room, but it didn’t obstruct her
Tony arched an eyebrow, his face devoid of emotion as usual, but when his gaze fell on the top of the woman’s soft head below him, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly. At this moment, he leaned forward with his right hand on the poker table, his entire person seemingly engulfing Myra in his embrace.Meanwhile, the three men at the side wore a tacit smile. We now know why he wasn’t in a hurry to go back and work overtime today. It turns out that the catch is here. He knew that she’s going to come over, didn’t he? And why didn’t he have a drink any other time but right when she was about to leave? Plus, he could’ve just taken a drink, yet he just had to use his injured hand. Wasn’t it obvious that he wanted her to stay? The three of them truly couldn’t stand seeing his desperation, so they gave him a hand.The atmosphere at the poker table was undoubtedly peaceful, but Myra gradually felt perturbed. I don’t know whether Tony Hart is doing this intentionally, but he said he’ll let m
“So, I later sneaked over and stole a furtive peek, only to see Myra playing poker with Young Master Elliot, Young Master Philip, and Director Windrow. I noticed that her interactions with Young Master Elliot seemed… a touch intimate.” Lyla initially had no idea why Tony asked her to come over, but the moment she glimpsed the scene in the room, understanding instantly dawned.At that time, she was slightly puzzled. Judging from his action, it seems as though Myra offended him, and he’s taking revenge against her. But no matter what, she brought it on herself! If she hadn’t come out to mingle with those men, I wouldn’t have gotten any dirt on her, so if she wants to assign blame, she should just blame it on her failure to withstand loneliness! Admittedly, intense envy blazed within me when I saw Myra chatting and laughing with the group of men whom I could never mingle with! Plus, she has always trampled me under her foot with her identity, and even Sean married her…“Don’t be angry, S
Myra couldn’t help exclaiming in agony as a wave of piercing pain assaulted her, cold sweat beading on her cheeks. “Have you lost your mind, Sean Chase?”Sean’s eyes were pitch-black and menacing, very much like a hellhound that came out of the depths of hell, his chest heaving incessantly from fury. In the end, he snapped bitterly, “I was wondering why you aren’t taking my calls recently, and it turned out that you’re messing around with Elliot Samson! You’re truly something else!”When he received Lyla’s phone call, he was actually having a meal with a representative from another company to discuss a project, but he rushed over without giving a whit about the project after the taking call. I was initially feeling a tad turned off by such a ploy from Lyla, but I actually witnessed it with my own two eyes earlier, so how could there be a mistake?“Myra Stark, didn’t you say you love me very much? Is this your so-called love for me? Being all affectionate and intimate with another man?
After the confrontation with Sean, Myra’s good mood back when she was playing poker with the few men had vanished altogether. She was just about to ask whether he’d mind taking a taxi home, but the man standing before her suddenly circled to the passenger seat and pulled the car door open. Upon seeing that she remained motionless, Tony even arched an eyebrow in surprise. “What’s wrong?” Then, he slid right into the passenger seat.The words were on the tip of Myra’s tongue, but as she watched his successive movements, she swallowed them. Never mind, my place is indeed not far from his apartment. Hence, she bent down and slipped into the driver’s seat before promptly starting the engine and driving away.Even though it was night time, the sky outside was brightly lit. In the near distance was a huge LED screen that was playing a massive advertisement. It was an advertisement for a shampoo, and the female model was someone familiar to her—Lyla Fisher, who’d now returned in a cloud of gl
