“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
Myra’s face was blushing crimson—she felt extremely embarrassed. Thus, she quietly started eating and did not look at the man next to her again.Soon, Henry became energized again and began to pile various dishes on Myra’s plate. “Myra, this sweet and sour pork is delicious. Here; have some. Also, my mother told me that this collagen soup is very good for your skin and beauty. Here; I’ll get you a bowl of it. Myra, this is tasty! The pineapple fried rice that Mrs. Frye makes is the best in the world! Come; I’ll get you some!”Only Henry’s cheerful chatter could be heard at the dining table. It was also precisely because Myra had him next to her that she breathed a small sigh of relief. Otherwise, she didn’t know how long the awkward atmosphere at the dining table would last.She picked up the bowl of collagen soup in front of her. Just as she was about to take a mouthful, she suddenly felt a dry and hot hand placing itself over her thigh. Tony is up to his old tricks again. Due to the
Myra wept bitterly. She had wanted to give the Hart Family a good impression today. Unfortunately, the atmosphere today was probably ruined.The veins on Tony’s forehead bulged. How could he not feel heartbroken at the sight of her crying so sadly? Thus, he hugged her tightly. His voice also became kinder. “Alright; alright. I’m sorry for kicking up a fuss over nothing. Don’t cry anymore, okay? If you don’t want to continue eating, we can leave. We’ll go home, okay?”Now that his voice was much gentler than before, his deep and low voice gradually soothed the upset feelings in her heart. After a while, she gripped his white shirt tightly and opened her mouth to speak. At that moment, somebody pulled open the bathroom door from the outside without any warning.When she touched the door handle just now, she had unlocked the lock. However, he had caught her and pulled her back before she could open the door. As the door opened at that moment, Tony lifted his eyes and annoyedly glanced in
When Tony came downstairs, he saw Myra sitting on the sofa in the living room alone. She was busy enjoying some fruits. He had been in a bad mood ever since he came out of the study. However, his spirits lifted after he came downstairs and sat beside her. Settling down next to her, he wrapped his arm around her shoulders and kissed the side of her face. His deep and low voice sounded and lingered in her ears. “What are you watching?”A variety show was playing on the TV, and she had a faint smile hanging from the corner of her lips when he embraced her. She carefully looked him up and down, seeming to breathe out a sigh of relief upon seeing that he wasn’t injured. “You’re finally back.”He did not know if it was his imagination, but the way she said the word ‘finally’ seemed a little coy. He narrowed his eyes slightly. “Did you miss me?”“I did.” She nodded without hesitation.His breath hitched at her words. She was the type to feel shy easily, so it was the first time she admitted
