Chapter 255
Kris came to know about the will from L, except she heard a different story from what she
eavesdropped!
“Dad, I didn’t think Myra would be a threat to us, so I didn’t take it seriously, but she came on so strong
this time. She casually exposed our n to kick her outst time. Not to mention, she even made you
punish us severely! Dad, I don’t know how true Tony’s feelings are for her, but for as long as they are
together, he will help her! Ever since she entered the Stark Group, everything has gone smoothly for
her. She’s even doing an impressive job in her position as general manager while we got defeated
again! Can’t you see it? She wants to get me and mom away from you, then go after you when you’re
alone!”
Kris spoke extensively in one breath, but if it had to do with Myra’s ambition, she did not mind instilling
it in his mind once more.
Almost everyone knew Myra’s goal in returning to the Stark Group, including Cameron.
He let her back in at the time for the assets she held, but he did not realize that she was harder to fool
than he had imagined. She was no longer the little girl who only knew how to keep things in. Not only
did she have Conan’s support, but she also had Tony’s help. In the end, they failed to get anything out
of her and only lost more on their end.
As Cameron listened to Kris, his face slowly sank to an all-time low.
Even if he loathed Kris and her mother, Kris was right. Myra was standing in opposition with him. She
resented her own father and only wanted to take thepany away from him. At this moment, the only
people he could trust were Kris and her mother. Myra also has the will Old Master Stark passed
down…
“D*mn it!” The veins at his temple were bulging. That old man always protected Myra and that woman,
but he never stopped to think that I am his son and just left the entire Stark Group to that wench. “Are
you sure this will is real?” He stared at Kris’ eyes to see if they would give something away.
His eyes were filled with anger and an unfathomable emotion as though he would make them pay if
they lied to him again.
Kris felt a shudder under his pressuring stare but still gritted her teeth and said, “It’s real!”
L did not have a reason to lie to her at the time. She couldn’t have made this up out of thin air either.
At the time, if it wasn’t because Myra would inherit the Stark Group that would eventually fall into Eve’s
son’s hands, Kris couldn’t think of another reason Eve would treat Myra so warmly.
In an instant, the anger in Cameron’s eyes subsided and he became calm. Looking up, he gazed at
Kris and said, “Since you’re back now, you should rest first. Don’t fall behind on work.”
His tone of voice also changed dramatically. From the look in his eyes, she knew that he believed her.
She felt smug. The expression on her face also softened. “Dad, I told you before. Mom and I will
always be on your side. I didn’t go to the United States purely for work this time but for your business in
the future.”
“Oh? Tell me about it, Krissy.” It hadn’t been ten minutes yet, but Cameron was already back to calling
her in the affectionate way he used to instead of addressing her spitefully as ‘Kris’. This time, she truly
felt relieved. Her face started to blush, and she looked at him bashfully. “Dad, do you know the Walton
Group?”
Something flickered across his eyes before he smirked meaningfully. “You mean the Walton Group that
flourished in Bradfort City at one point and wasn’t even inferior to Hart Group before moving to the
United States to expand? I heard recently that they intend to move thepany back to Bradfort City
to continue expanding.”
Giving him a nod, she tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and revealed her flushed cheeks.
“Gideon Walton has been pursuing metely. When I went to the United States this time, we pretty
much made our rtionship steady. He says that once hees back to Bradfort City, he will propose
to me! Dad…” She looked up at him with earnest eyes. “I asked him to tell you himself. After all, you
are my father. If you’re not happy with him, even if I like him, I won’t go against your wishes.”
Cameron observed his daughter without a change in expression, but a storm was already taking ce
within him.
He heard the news about the Walton Group recently and knew that their development prospects in the
United States were not good. Thus, they decided to return to Bradfort City. Despite that, they still had a
strong presence in Bradfort City. Kris did not have any chances of marrying into the Hart Family now,
but it wouldn’t be a bad option if she hitched her wagon to the Walton Family. Moreover, the Hart
Family and the Walton Family had a good rtionship.
Cameron also heard that the Walton Family was interested in Bradfort City’s Central Square project
which he was interested in himself.
“You have a good eye, Krissy.” His eyebrows shot up. The anger in his eyes when she first stepped into
his office was long gone now and reced with a look of praise. He walked away from his office desk
toward her and patted her on the shoulder lovingly. “You’re very thoughtful, Krissy. I was too stubborn
before and failed to see you and your mother’s efforts. Why don’t you move back in today? Your
mother misses you too.”
She gripped her hands tightly. Finally, I have his trust again!
“Dad, I miss you and Mom too,” she replied sweetly.
He nced at her. Even though she’s a little bit ignorant, at least she made a smart move this time. I

also need people that I can trust.
He patted her shoulder again.
When Kris came out of Cameron’s office, she happened to bump into Myra who was going in with
some documents for him to sign.
Since Kris managed to gain his trust back, her ambition also started to grow again. She scoffed at Myra
then left that floor with her nose in the air.
Myra watched her from behind with narrowed eyes.
…
“What are you thinking about?”
After getting into Tony’s car after work, Myra had her brows furrowed in deep thought the whole way.
He turned his head over to look at her from time to time but she didn’t seem to notice.
When she heard his voice, she shook her head and looked at him. “I don’t know how to exin it either.
I just feel like something is a bit off.”
“Tell me.” His eyebrows shot up. He did not like it when she kept things from him.
After pondering for a moment, she looked back at him and started, “I have a feeling Kris’ business trip
to the United States this time was a cover-up. It feels like she went to look for someone in the Walton
Family…” Seeing the half-smile on Tony’s face, she started to blush. “Never mind. I might be
overthinking.”
In the lobby of the Stark Group the other day, she overheard them mention the Walton Family.
Nheless, there were tons of Waltons around, so it didn’t necessarily mean that they were talking
about Gemma’s family.
Letting go of the steering wheel with one hand, he grasped her hand and gave it a light squeeze. In his
deep and alluring voice, he said, “Even if she did look for the Walton Family, it’s nothing to worry
about.”
Outside of her field of vision, a look of mockery shed across his eyes. Easing to a stop at the traffic
light, he pulled her in and kissed her on the forehead. “Are you nning on standing at the top and
ruling over the world once you get the Stark Group?”
