    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 nted 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 looks like I won’t be able to propose any time


    soon.”


    “You can solve some of these issues as quickly as possible.” Conan stood up with the help of his cane,


    walked over to the window, and nced at the cactus ced by the windowsill. “Take good care of her.


    She has suffered enough in the past.”


    “I’m not being nice to her just because she suffered a lot in the past.” Tony felt moved. Although he was


    very reluctant to do so, he still turned to the old man and quietly said, “Thank you for taking care of her


    over the years.” After that, he turned and left the office without waiting for the other party to reply.


    ncing at the bright sunshine outside the window, Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief.


    At 6 PM, Myra finally understood the ins and outs of the Elsinore Garden Project. ncing at the time,


    she suddenly realized that she was feeling a little hungry. Thus, she unwrapped a piece of chocte


    and stuffed it into her mouth. She rather enjoyed the feeling of returning to work. She was probably the


    kind of person that felt restless when she had nothing to do. Hence, her entire being seemed different


    when she had something to work on.


    She soon received a voice message on Messenger. When she clicked on it, a deep voice sounded


    from her phone. “Waiting downstairs.”


    She felt her heart skipping a beat. After she said her goodbyes to Tilly, she freshened herself up under


    Tilly’s teasing gaze before heading toward the elevator. Just as she arrived at the elevator, the elevator


    next to her arrived at almost the same time. However, she couldn’t care less about what other people


    were doing or what was going on around her. Therefore, she failed to notice that Kris was stalking her


    from behind with a grim expression.


    Myra walked briskly, nodding and smiling at everybody she met. It was an obvious characteristic of a


    young woman in love, which made Kris look even more upset as she followed behind Myra. Myra


    quickly walked out of Stark Tower; the ck Maybach that had sent her to work this morning was


    parked not too far away.


    Kris saw a tall maning out of the driver’s seat from afar but could not see his face clearly. Then,


    that man walked over in a gentlemanly manner to the passenger seat to open the car door for Myra.


    Upon seeing that, Kris narrowed her eyes slightly. She quickly ran over to Myra without even thinking


    about it and grabbed the man’s arm while shouting in a shrill voice, “Let me see just who this


    mysterious boyfriend of yours is, Myra!”


    The man she caught furrowed his eyebrows in response. He turned around to reveal an ordinary


    square-shaped face. Despite looking rather down-to-earth, it was clear that he was not the owner of


    this car. He seemed slightly annoyed that his arm was being held. Even so, he calmly looked at her and


    said, “Excuse me, miss. I am not Miss Myra’s boyfriend. I am just the boss’ chauffeur.”


    The expression on Kris’ face changed slightly. She released her hand and questioned, “Who is your


    boss?” She shot a nce at Myra and saw that Myra’s eyes were filled with contempt for her, which


    only served to make her rage burn even brighter. I must expose her lies!


    The man nced sideways at her. “I’m afraid you don’t have the right to know who my boss is.” After


    saying that, he stepped back from Kris and made a gentlemanly gesture for Myra to enter the car.


    Myra looked at her dog that was staring at her pitifully from the back seat and said to the man, “It’s fine.


    I’ll sit in the back seat with Meow.” Then, she opened the car door herself and got into the car. In the


    next moment, Meow immediately lunged into herp.


    The driver obediently went along with her wishes. Seeing that she had gotten into the car, he headed


    directly to the driver’s seat, got into the car, started the engine, and drove away. Kris was left standing


    there, swallowing a mouthful of exhaust fumes. Watching Myra and her beautiful dog being affectionate


    with each other nearly drove Kris mad with rage. I don’t believe that she has the ability to attract


    another handsome and talented man!


    Inside the car, the chauffeur respectfully said to Myra, “Miss Stark, Director Hart had a business


    meeting at Ritz Carlton this afternoon. So, he asked me to pick you up and head there directly.”


    No wonder all he said was ‘Waiting downstairs.’ in his message. It turns out he didn’te over


    himself. Luckily, he didn’te today. Otherwise, Kris might have seen his face. And, I wouldn’t have


    been able to see that depressed expression on her face. She chuckled and petted Meow’s head.


    “Okay.”


    The Stark Group was not far from the Ritz Carlton. Therefore, it didn’t take long for Myra to arrive there.


    Since Tony received a phone call from his chauffeur beforehand, he was already waiting outside. He


    was dressed in a ck suit and leather shoes; he was so well-dressed that he looked even colder than


    usual. Two hotel staff stood behind him nervously. They were probably afraid that he might instruct


    them to do something out of the blue. Thus, they did not dare to leave. On the other hand, he stood


    there with one hand in his pocket and the other holding a cigarette. He was squinting slightly as if deep


    in thought.


    Myra noticed that the man’s addiction to cigarettes seemed quite bad recently. Although she wasn’t


    against smoking or disliked him smoking, she felt that she ought to think of a way to make him smoke


    less since it was bad for his health.


    As soon as the car arrived in front of the Ritz Carlton, the chauffeur automatically got out of the car but


    left the key in the ignition.


    When Tony entered the car, he extinguished his cigarette. He narrowed his eyes and nced at Myra,


    who was sitting in the back seat. Then, he nced at the passenger seat next to him. Myra


    immediately understood the meaning behind those looks. However, she wouldn’t be able to sit with


    N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    Meow anymore if she sat in the passenger seat. Meow was simply too fat to fit in the passenger seat


    with her. Still, his gaze was too sharp for her to ignore. She abandoned the pitiful Meow in the end,


    getting out of the car and entering the passenger seat instead.


    As soon as the car door closed behind her, he pulled her into his arms. As he had not seen her for an


    entire day, he had the urge to hold her by his side at all times. He studied her slightly flushed cheeks


    when shey in his arms, his eyes darkening in response. Lowering his head, his thin lips swiftly


    captured her lips. It was a long time before he released her.


    He studied her slightly swollen lips and absent-mindedly said, “Follow me back to the Hart Residence


    tonight.”


    She was a little dizzy from the kiss, but her entire body stiffened when she heard what he said. “Is that


    okay? Old Master Hart and Old Madam Hart didn’t even invite me over…”


    Unfortunately, the car was already moving. Moreover, they were driving along the same route she took


    during the one time she went to the Hart Residence.


    Looking at Myra worriedly biting her lip, Tony’s tone became considerably gentler. “I’ve already told my


    family. Besides, Shawn ising back too. Aside from Grandpa and Grandma, only Serena, Henry,


    and Mrs. Somerfields will be there. So, don’t be so nervous.”


    Myra said nothing. It would be a lie to say that she was not nervous. However, she had not expected


    her first time visiting the Hart Residence as Tony’s girlfriend to happen under such circumstances. She


    didn’t even have the time to change out of her clothes—she was still wearing her officedy outfit.
