Chapter 95
Myra found herself breathing heavily; her debating skills were nothing inparison to the man who
stood before her eyes. “Even if I do like you a little bit, it still wouldn’t be enough. Whatever feelings you
have for me aren’t enough, and it’s not enough to make me want to be your woman!” She couldn’t stop
herself from barking at the man in front of her.
“Not enough?” Tony pulled her closer toward his chest and forced her to stare into his eyes right then.
“Did you think I only had threepanies to choose from for the Sunny Bay Project? I only wanted to
reduce the stress and pressure ced on you; why else would I have put in so much effort just to reject
all of the designers who were better than you? When you were bullied by Elsie, why didn’t I just allow
her to be the representative formunications between Chase Group and Hart Group? Why do you
think I asked for you and cleared up all the false usations made about you? Couldn’t you tell what
Sasha was trying to do with me? If I was just joking or fooling around with you, don’t you think I could
have chosen someone a little more fun? Why would I choose someone as unwilling as you? I’ve
brought you along to meet my friends a few times now; what did you think that was for? Did you think
that it was to help you expand your business contacts? Whenever Sean hurt you, I’d always show up
by your side. Did you think all of those times were mere coincidences? Myra, if I wasn’t worried about
you; if I wasn’t afraid that something might happen to you, why would I always rush over to you even
when I know that you’d only throw me a bunch of hurtful words before chasing me out of your life
again?!”
With every sentence he said, Tony tightened his grip on Myra. His lips curled into a smirk when he saw
the confused look in her eyes. Once he finished his words, he gave her a long, deep kiss. He pulled her
body close toward his without leaving any gaps between their skin.
“I want you to be my woman. Sean doesn’t know how to treasure you; let me do it instead.” Tony’s
voice was tender and loving as he whispered these words into her ear.
Myra simply felt like everything was a mistake right then. It’s all happening during the wrong time; the
wrong ce; the wrong man; and the wrong feelings… It’s true that I couldn’t stop my heart from
pounding furiously when I first heard Tony’s alluring words, but… The very next moment, Myra abruptly
turned on the two taps beside them. As water gushed out of the taps, she reached a hand out to block
the flow of the water. The water immediately sshed all over the ce as if a child had just yed
with it.
The moment Tony loosened his grip on her, she seized the opportunity to slip out of his arms. Myra’s
entire body was already soaked in water. She quickly took a few steps back to increase the distance
between her and Tony before she spoke to him in a calm voice. “I understand what you mean, Director
Hart. I’m sorry; I didn’t realize how much you’ve done for me all along. But in the future… You don’t
have to waste your effort on me any longer, Director Hart.” Myra suppressed all of the feelings that
made her heart squirm and writhe right then. I really shouldn’t get myself tangled up with this man. Yet,
his actions are too warm sometimes; it gets me caught up in a daze and it makes me feel like I can’t
get out of it. However, I shouldn’t dream about a man who shouldn’t be the man of my dreams. I’ve
really learned a lot from Sean.
“It’ste. I have other matters to handle tonight, so I won’t be bidding goodbye to the rest of them.”
Myra turned around and headed toward the exit of Zion Club once she finished her words. Fortunately,
she had brought her handbag along and ced it on the basin earlier. She felt an inexplicable ache in
her chest right then, but she didn’t dare to further contemte the reason behind it. Instead, she strode
off with hurried footsteps before she broke into a run. Her frantic running shocked all of Zion Club’s
waiters and waitresses as she zoomed past them.
When she finally got herself out of the club, one of the waiters quickly drove her car over. The waiter
even asked her if she needed a designated driver—it was probably because her face seemed too pale
right then. She hastily rejected his offer and got into her car before she started her engine and sent her
car whizzing off into the night.
Meanwhile, Tony was fuming when he returned to his private room in Zion Club. Elliot nced over his
shoulder to see that Myra had disappeared. “Why didn’t you bring Myra back with you, Tony?” Elliot
couldn’t stop himself from asking the question. However, the moment he finished his sentence, he was
met with Tony’s sharp and icy re. With Tony’s gaze so cold, Elliot felt like it nearly froze him up! The
younger man shuddered slightly before he hurried off to a corner where he quietly minded his own
business.
Everyone else could tell that something was off about Tony, and they naturally realized the person who
was responsible for Tony’s foul mood. All of them fell silent as they thought, The rumors were right;
Myra is truly the root of all troubles! It looks as though she has really infuriated Tony this time.
Myra went straight into the bathroom once she returned to Ocean Blue Residence. After turning on the
shower, she stood herself beneath it for the water to soak her body entirely. She couldn’t deny it—she
had felt slightly touched when she first heard Tony’s words. Nheless, she was well-aware of the
fact that Tony wasn’t a man she could easily mess with. Just his family members themselves would be
an issue—they’d never allow him to be with a girl like her. If things are going to turn into an endless
series of struggles, then there’s no reason for me to get myself involved with this at all. I should really
just stay away from Tony. Myra lifted her head and allowed the water to ssh onto her face, as if it
would blur her vision and distract her away from the temptations around her.
Meanwhile, Tony immediately rushed to Sebastian’s study once he arrived at the Hart Residence.
Sebastian was in the midst of practicing his calligraphy, and he didn’t even look up when Tony arrived;
the old man only lowered his calligraphy brush once he was done. He feigned an excessively calm
demeanor as he lifted his rice paper up and blew on it gently. “You called me and said that you had
something to discuss earlier. Tell me what it is.”
Tony walked toward the old man’s study desk with a cold, emotionless look on his face. He was silent

for a while before he finally pressed his lips together and began to speak. “I need the money that was
ced in Switzend. I just need it for a while.”
Sebastian froze for a moment before he narrowed his eyes. “So?”
“I need the moneytest by Sunday, so I’ll need you to prepare it for me soon.” Tony’s face was as
nk as usual. Sebastian choked upon hearing how demanding Tony sounded, almost frothing at the
mouth with rage. He lowered his rice paper and tried his very best to calm himself down before he gave
Tony a side-eye. “Hah…” He let out a sarcasticugh.
Everyone in Bradfort City knew that the Hart Family ran arge business, but no one—not even Old
Madam Hart—truly understood howrge of a scale their businesses were. Both Sebastian and his son
believed that it was important to be prepared for the worst; they wanted to be sure that they would have
a chance of getting back up on their feet if the Hart Group’s businesses were to ever copse.
Therefore, they left a grand sum of money in all of thergest banks in various countries. The amount
of money that they cashed out from any bank would be enough for the Hart Family to survive the
toughest financial crises! Sebastian had never intended to hide this n from his grandchildren, but
Tony was probably the only grandson who was enough of a b*stard to demand for money in such a
greedy manner.
Right then, Sebastian’s gaze burned with rage as he tried his best to put on a calm front. He took a sip
of his tea before he spoke. “Do I have to give it to you just because you asked for it? How shameless of
you.” He then ced the teacup down and raised an eyebrow as he stared at the man in front of him.
Tony has found quite a bit of sess in his career. He’s also one of the most stubborn and proud ones
whenpared to his other three siblings. He first started his own business andter took over the
Hart Group, but never once has hee over to tell me that he was in trouble or needed any help.
Tony’s lips were pressed into a thin line. A cold glint surfaced in his gaze for a moment before it
disappeared as he narrowed his eyes. “Old man, weren’t you hoping for me to get myself a wife soon?
How am I going to do that if I don’t put in some effort?”
“You b*stard! How dare you find yourself a greedy woman!” All of a sudden, Sebastian lost his temper.
He picked his new inkstone up and flung it directly toward Tony.
