Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 109

Myra took a deep breath. For some reason, the thought of the noble and handsome man panicked her

deep down inside, but she collected herself and replied, “Miss Bridgers, you should try to win Director

Hart’s heart with your own capability if you love him. If he loves you, no one else can win his favor but

you.”

Belle’s expression changed at Myra’s words; upon recalling what Tony had said to her, she apparently

took the last sentence Myra said to her as an act of provocation. We both know that Tony loves the

woman in front of me; isn’t she just telling me that Tony loves her, and no one else can win his favor?!

“Myra…” This was the first time Belle hated someone so much deep down inside. I have finally met the

man I love, yet he doesn’t even bother giving me a glance because of the woman in front of me… For

the very first time, she looked at the dignified woman before her as if humbling herself. Softening her

voice, she then asked, “Tell me—what do you want so that you’ll leave him?”

However, Myra had a complicated look in her eyes. Going past Belle, she walked ahead and replied,

“I’ve already told you—I never wanted to win Director Hart’s favor in the first place.”

How could that man be someone I can play up to? Myra curled her lips in self-deprecation, but Belle

didn’t see that; all she saw was Myra’s figure gradually disappearing into the dressing room. As she

stamped her foot, her tears fell again.

When Myra walked out of Wilson Golf Club, Tony had driven over in a black Maybach; he stopped the

car at the entrance and gestured for her to get in. Myra’s feelings were mixed as she thought of what

Belle had said just now, but she still stepped forward, pulled the car door open, and got into the vehicle.

The figure next to her had leaned over before she could fasten her seat belt, but she clutched her seat

belt tightly and gave him a polite smile. “I’ll do it myself, Director Hart.”

Narrowing his eyes, Tony glanced at her before returning to the driver’s seat. Then, he started the

engine with a raised brow.

Both of them were strangely quiet along the way. The cell phone in Tony’s pocket rang like crazy

several times, but he hung up the calls expressionlessly.

When they finally reached the restaurant, Myra immediately stepped out of his car.

As soon as she got out, Elliot, who had been waiting outside, took her hand and walked a few steps

away. He asked her in a whisper, “Miss Stark, did Tony go on a blind date just now?”

Myra sighed in relief at the sight of Elliot, but she wasn’t used to having her hand grabbed by a man.

After struggling free of his grasp, she nodded and replied, “Yeah.”

That should be the case according to Tony’s words, but judging from Belle’s looks, their blind date

didn’t seem to have worked out.

At the thought of this, Myra couldn’t conceal the faint smile on her lips no matter how calm she was.

Elliot, however, had a bad feeling at the sight of her expression. Oh no! Myra knows that Tony went on

a blind date with another woman, yet why does she look so happy about it? Could it be that she has

zero feelings for him?

Meanwhile, Tony parked his car and came up to meet them soon afterward.

The three of them then entered the hotel and went into a VIP room. Myra wondered if she was thinking

too much, but despite Tony telling her that Elliot had something to talk to her about, the latter took the

seat next to the chair adjacent to hers and pretended to be invisible after entering the private room.

After the two of them had seated themselves, Tony entered the private room from the outside; he then

casually pulled out the chair next to Myra’s and sat down. “Weren’t you going to discuss something with

me just now?” He looked impassive, but what he said snapped her out of her thoughts.

Upon hearing his words, Myra no longer cared about Elliot; she immediately turned to look at the man

next to her. However, when she met Tony’s eyes—which seemed to be able to see through everything

—it occurred to her that he couldn’t possibly be unaware of what had happened to Chase Group. After

all, even Belle was aware of it. She then said with a forced smile, “Director Hart, you must have learned

that Chase Group’s trade secret has been stolen. Currently, all the evidence points to me; Sean has

been accusing me of divulging the trade secret to the Hart Group. I think that only the Hart Group can

prove my innocence…”

However, silence fell over the private room when she finished her sentence.

Tony was about to take out a cigarette, but he paused upon meeting Myra’s hopeful gaze. Putting back

his cigarette, he curled the four fingers of his right hand and tapped lightly on the table. “Indeed, I’ve

learned of that.”

“Well then…” Myra’s voice instantly became husky. Naturally, she hoped this time that the Hart Group

would help her.

Tony wasn’t in a hurry, though. He explained slowly, “Indeed, someone from Chase Group had

disclosed the information to us this time, which was why we managed to sell off all the property in

Hilliville.”

Upon hearing his words, Elliot instantly pricked up his ears. On the other hand, Myra’s heart nearly

jumped out of her chest. She thought to herself, It’s Lyla! She must be the one behind all of this!

However, what Tony said next chilled Myra to the bone; it felt like a bucket of iced water had been

poured on her. “Nonetheless, I’m sure you know very well that Hart Group won’t help you with this,

Miss Stark.”

Stunned, she looked up at the expressionless man before her. When she had arrived earlier that day,

she already knew that it was almost impossible for Hart Group to help her with this. After all, doing so

would plunge them into a messier situation. However, he asked her to stay and play golf just now,

which made her think that he had another way at the very least. In her opinion, the most enigmatic part

about Tony was that he could make anything impossible possible.

However, Tony didn’t continue to speak after finishing that sentence, causing Myra’s heart to sink little

by little. Gritting her teeth, she asked him again, “Is there no other way?”

Tony shook his head. “I can’t do anything this time—not for now, at the very least.”

Myra took a deep breath as her expression seemed a bit forced. “In that case, I shan’t force you to do

something you can’t. Besides, you’ve helped me a lot, Director Hart.”

She had no right to ask the man in front of her to help her, so why did he have to do so?

Upon hearing Myra’s words, Elliot—who was sitting next to them—almost couldn’t refrain himself from

shouting. I guarantee that Tony will immediately promise to help you if you agree to be together with

him! However, he didn’t dare to say that out loud; at the very least, he couldn’t say that in Tony’s

presence.

With that, the atmosphere between the three of them became even stranger.

Myra found little taste in the meal, so she quickly finished eating and left right away on the excuse that

she had something else to attend to. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Looking at her skinny figure, Elliot gently bumped his shoulder against the man next to him, whose

eyes apparently fell on the woman as well. “You were so indifferent and heartless just now, Tony. Don’t

you worry that Mrs. Hart will be upset?”

Even he couldn’t help sympathizing with Myra at the sight of her expression just now.

Upon hearing Elliot’s words, Tony shot him a glance and stopped eating the dish before him. He pulled

out his chair and stood up before asking, “Do you think that I want to see her being upset?”

“Of course I don’t!” Elliot promptly corrected himself. After thinking for a moment, he continued, “Should

we proceed with the next step, Tony? The way I see it, Chase Group’s shares have plummeted so

badly that some people would probably want to kill themselves by jumping into the sea.”

He sniggered while thinking to himself, It can be said that I’ve avenged Mrs. Hart from another aspect,

can’t I?

Tony’s thin lips compressed into a strained smile, but he didn’t answer Elliot for a long time. When Elliot

looked at him, he saw him knitting his brows; it looked as though Tony was thinking about something at

this moment. After a long time, he suddenly asked, “Will all of this end step by step according to plan?”

Of course it will!” Elliot answered unthinkingly. Their plans were usually foolproof, not to mention that

they were especially careful this time.

However, Elliot didn’t know that Tony wasn’t thinking about their plan. Instead, he was thinking about

Myra’s heart. Perhaps because he had been refused too many times, he had a feeling that he might

lose her.
