Chapter 354


    “Sure.” A fierce look fleeted across Gideon’s eyes. Even if Edward and Shelly said nothing, he wouldn’t


    want to have anything to do with Kris. She doesn’t know her ce, so she will get a taste of my wrath!


    It was a long night. While some people were fretting over their problems, some had a good night’s


    sleep. The next morning, Myra needed to go to the hospital for her prenatal checkup. Tony would be


    keeping herpany, as he needed to check on his fractured arm and his other injuries.


    That morning, the Hart Family had breakfast together. It had been a long time since theyst had such


    a jolly breakfast together. Sebastian couldn’t help butment, “It would be perfect if Damian and Katie


    are here.”


    Smiling, Serena said, “You can always summon him if you want him back home.”


    “He’s in the military, so he can’t just up and leave! Since he has chosen to be a soldier, he will


    have to obey their rules all the time!” Sebastian red at Serena.


    With a smile, shemented, “But I suppose he shoulde home during festive asions. The


    Lantern Festival will be happening soon, so it will be nice if Damian gets toe home, even if only for


    a day.”


    Upon hearing that, Sebastian got all excited. “I suppose I can start preparing for the family dinner now!


    Instead of inviting any outsiders, let’s have dinner among ourselves. And you, ahem. Uhm… Estelle,


    you can invite your brother,” Sebastian said rather awkwardly.


    “What did you say? I didn’t hear you.” Estelle pretended that she didn’t hear him.


    Furious, he retorted, “Just forget about it if you missed it!”


    “Grandpa said you can bring your brother along to celebrate the festival with us, Miss Langley. After all,


    Grandpa will be personally involved in the preparations for the banquet!” Serena repeated Sebastian’s


    message in his stead.


    While ring at Serena, Sebastian chided, “You sure bber a lot!”


    “You’re the one who passed this trait down to me.” Ever since Serena got together with her new


    boyfriend, she had transformed drastically for the better, so Sebastian was actually feeling happy for


    her.


    “Old Master Sebastian, I won’t be having lunch at home today, since I will be going to thepany with


    Tony after my prenatal checkup.” Myra informed Sebastian of her ns after some thought.


    Sebastian was most loving when he was talking to Myra. “Go on ahead. You can order your lunch with


    the servant. I will have the driver deliver your lunch to you by noon when they’re ready.”


    “You’re being partial! I only got to have canteen meals while working in City Hall!” Shawn interjected


    while arching his brow.


    Upon hearing that, Sebastian rolled his eyes at him and Estelle. “I will treat you two like royalty when


    you produce an heir to the family like them!”


    Shawn scratched his nose sheepishly when he heard that statement. Since Estelle didn’t want kids yet,


    he supposed he wouldn’t be getting such treatment anytime soon. When breakfast was over,


    everybody left for school, work, or to the hospital respectively.


    While Tony and Myra were on their way to the hospital, Tony had gotten a few calls. Judging from his


    conversation with the caller, Myra surmised that it had to do with Stark Group. After he hung up, she


    leaned in closer to ask, “Will the Waltons no longer invest in the Green Palms Project?”


    “Yeah. The Waltons issued a statement, and Gideon and Kris’ engagement was also annulled.” Tony


    grabbed Myra’s hand with his free hand before scratching her palm. “Would you like me to intervene? I


    can still save Stark Group if I do it now.”


    Back in the days, Stark Group was but a smallpany with a dozen or so employees, including


    Cameron. Jenny Eckhart invested in thepany using her family’s money, and she led thepany


    inpleting a few major projects. That was why thepany was able to expand into a medium-


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    sized business in Bradfort City within the short span of three years.


    However, Cameron was ambitious. Although he might have loved Jenny back then, it couldn’tpare


    to his ambition. After witnessing thepany expand and flourish under Jenny’s management, he was


    worried that she might take over his position, so he began stripping her of her power. Later on, he even


    cheated on Jenny with Rachel, which led to the subsequent deterioration of Jenny’s mental state, as


    well as her untimely demise.


    Jenny was a prodigy in business, which was hard toe by in the Eckhart Family. Unfortunately, her


    life was ruined because she married the wrong man. Myra only cared about Stark Group because it


    was her mother’s handiwork, but just like her mother, she was aiming for neither power nor riches.


    As soon as she realized that thepany would still be in the hands of the man who made her mother


    suffer instead of herself, even if thepany managed to recover from the crisis, she suddenly no


    longer felt like helping them.


    “You don’t have to save them.” There was a fleeting sense of mncholy in Myra’s eyes when she


    stared at the road ahead. “Tony, my mother was the one who built up thepany, so it was her life’s


    work. I don’t want to watch as Cameron, Rachel, and Kris suck it dry.”


    Since she didn’t want thepany anyway, and thepany going up in mes would make those


    people suffer, she would rather see it in ruins. “The Stark Group as it is now is what used to make my


    mother suffer, so you don’t have to salvage it. More than twenty years ago, it used to be an insignificant


    Sensing her emotional turmoil, Tony reached out to hold her hand before asking in a soft voice, “Won’t


    you regret this?”


    “I won’t.” She turned her palm to hold his hand. Suddenly, she let out a naughty chuckle. “I still have


    twenty-five percent of Hart Group’s shares anyway. Is this not better than Stark Group?”


    Hearing that prompted Tony to hold her hand even tighter. “As long as you’re happy.” After a pause, he


    suggested, “Since that is the case, I can make Cameron suffer a bit more in the meantime. One day,


    you will get thepany back.” It was a promise that Tony made to Conan; he would give Stark Group


    back to Myra as a betrothal gift.


    Soon, they arrived at the hospital. During Myra’s prenatal checkup, the doctor went through all of the


    necessary steps as Tony observed from the side. He was also listening intently, and made notes when


    the doctor gave his instructions. Even the doctormented on how fortunate Myra was to have such


    a loving husband, which made her blush intensely.


    The checkup indicated that everything was normal. After that, it was Myra’s turn to apany Tony to


    the surgical department. When the doctor received news of his arrival, he quickly prepared for the


    checkup. Luckily, Tony seemed to be making good progress in his recovery.


    Just when the two of them were about to leave after thanking the doctor, the door of the office flung


    open abruptly. A nurse was standing by the door, panting for breath, looking as if she feared she might


    have missed out on something. As soon as she saw Myra, who was beside Tony, her pupils shrunk.


    “What’s the matter, Miss Bonger?” The doctor could hear herbored breathing, so he assumed that


    there was an emergency.


    However, Hayley shook her head. “It’s nothing, Doctor Randall. I merely came in search of someone.”


    Then, she bit on her lip while staring at Tony.


    She didn’t expect Tony to be discharged so quickly, and she didn’t expect her name to be excluded


    from the list of doctors and nurses who would be conducting scheduled checkups for Tony at his house


    either. When she asked the lead nurse for a reason, she was told in a roundabout manner that it was


    the Hart Family’s decision, so it had to be obeyed.
