Chapter 177


    Naturally, that conversation became a thorn in Eve’s heart. She was never fond of L, and now, L


    was just a real eyesore.


    Eve’s expression was gloomy, yet L didn’t seem to have the patience to entertain her anymore. She


    walked past her directly and went straight for the house.


    Eve’s expression sank further. Infuriated, she pulled her lips into a tight line, though she could only


    choke down her rage. This wasn’t the time. She didn’t want Sean to be caught in the middle of their


    fight. Still, don’t let me find out what you did behind my son’s back, L! she thought as her heart


    boiled with hatred.


    After L hung up on her, Kris didn’t look good. She knew what kind of woman L was. Nheless,


    they had amon enemy. The enemy of her enemy was her friend. This wasn’t the time for her to fall


    out with L. But, the scene of Myra flirting with Tony set the rage in her heart aze.


    Tony dropped Myra off somewhere near the Stark Tower.

    Taking her time to unfasten her seatbelt, Myra nced at the man beside her. In the past, Tony would


    have leaned over and kissed her before she got out. However, he showed no sign of doing that today.


    Remembering that they had just made up with each other, Myra bit her lip, unfastened her seatbelt, and


    took the initiative to approach him before she kissed the corner of his pursed lips. “Can you pick me up


    tonight?”


    The man turned around and looked at her with arched brows. “Aren’t you afraid that the others would


    see us?”


    Myra knew he said that on purpose. Thus, she reached out and pulled his hand that was resting on the


    steering wheel and shook it. “So what if they see us? They’ll find out that you’re mine sooner orter


    anyway.”


    At her remarks, Tony’s expression rxed. He pressed her head toward him and gave her a peck on


    her forehead. “I’m not sure if I’m busy tonight. If I’m caught up by something, I’ll send Leo to pick you


    up.”


    “Okay.” Myra nodded. ncing at the ring on her left hand, she felt soft in her heart. Then, she got out


    of the car.


    After she saw Tony’s car leave, she walked back to the Stark Tower, feeling sweet. Unexpectedly, she


    ran into Kris, who had been waiting for her outside thepany. Myra pretended as though she didn’t


    see her and walked straight into the building.


    She was feeling good at the moment. Therefore, she didn’t want to make a fuss. Nevertheless, the fact


    that she didn’t want to cause trouble didn’t mean that someone else didn’t want to.


    Kris had raced back here on purpose because she wanted to find Myra. When she saw Myra, the


    corners of her lips lifted into an indifferent grin. She approached her, blocking her from moving forward


    as she sized her up. “Sis, I didn’t know you’re getting better at seducing men. However, as your sister, I


    have to remind you to be very careful; otherwise, you’ll fail miserably. You should know what you’re


    capable of and the boundaries before you bite someone. You aren’t supposed to mess with some


    people. Stop dreaming!” After saying that, she sneered and turned around, walking gracefully back to


    thepany.


    Standing at the entrance, Myra stared at her arrogant figure as her brows slowly furrowed. pparently,


    Kris’ words had a hidden meaning. Is she mad because she found out about my rtionship with Tony?


    Just like Kris, a disdainful grin found its way across Myra’s lips. It didn’t matter to Myra whether Kris


    knew about that because Kris would never tell Cameron about the rtionship since she herself had


    eyes for Tony. Telling Cameron would do no good to her. Furthermore, Myra no longer cared whether


    the father-daughter pair knew about her rtionship with Tony. If the Stark Family wants to exploit our


    rtionship and gain something from Tony, I’ll never allow it! Her eyes narrowed at the thought.


    After Tony left the Stark Tower, his pursed lips gradually rxed into a small grin. He had been


    entertained by Myra’s sweet-talking. As he stared at the ring on his left hand, the grin on his face grew


    wider. Suddenly, he pulled up the car by the roadside and fell into a moment of contemtion. Then, he


    pulled his phone out and took a photo of his fingers. The photo was quickly uploaded on his Stories


    with a caption: ‘I know it’s kind of ugly, but I’ll just wear it’. It was as though he really hated the ring.


    Nevertheless, those who saw his post were cursing him silently, I know you’re showing affection in


    public. There’s no need to pretend!


    Elliot: ‘Tony, the ring is so pretty. The one who gave it to you must have put in a lot of effort to choose it!


    It must be a gift from Myra, right?’


    Usually, Tony despised what Elliot said. However, Elliot suddenly struck him as a smart person today,


    and he couldn’t help but reply, ‘Yeah’.


    Elliot pouted further at his reply, but his fingers continued to tap out the words he didn’t really mean:


    ‘Tsk, tsk. It looks like Myra really loves you. I’ve never seen a woman who took the initiative to give a


    man a ring. Indeed, Myra is very unique.’. He managed to tter Tony with every word he sent.


    When the others saw hisment, they couldn’t help but spurn him.


    Unlike them, the corners of Tony’s lips lifted further. She really loves me?


    He took another nce at the ring on his finger and arched an eyebrow as if he didn’t care. It’s just a


    ring. Is it really worth it for Elliot to exaggerate like that? Be that as it may, his mood had obviously


    brightened up.


    During the afternoon, Leo told him that Bradfort University would be holding ‘Bradfort City’s Road to


    Sess Conference’ tomorrow, and the principal had formally sent Tony an invitation letter.


    The university had invited most of their notable alumni. However, because the current students had


    been looking up to Tony, the principal decided toply with their wishes and invited him at thest


    minute. Usually, Leo would never show him this kind of letter. Nevertheless, today…


    Tony tossed away the pen in his hand. Looking up at his secretary, he raised an eyebrow. “Reason.”


    When Tony was working, he normally held the cigarette with his right index and middle fingers. When


    he needed to write something, he would hold it between his thin lips. Nheless, he was holding the


    cigarette with his left hand today. After he said that, he put the cigarette back between his thin lips.


    Leo was very observant. Immediately, he noticed the ring on Tony’s left hand and understood why his


    boss was in a good mood when he went to his house this afternoon. Quickly, he began, “Bradfort


    University is Miss Stark’s alma mater. I heard that the principal also sent her an invitation letter since


    she’s an outstanding designer. Apart from Miss Stark, Director Chase from the Chase Group is


    amongst the invitees as well…”


    When Leo mentioned Sean, he held his breath to avoid provoking his boss, acting as if he was just


    mentioning the fact. Soon, he heard his boss’s low voice that carried a hint of disdain. “That brat is


    considered one of the sessful people in Bradfort City too?”


    Leo wanted tough. Although he had a prejudice against Sean, he had to admit that Sean was


    considered one of the young talents in Bradfort City, though he didn’t agree with his despicable


    behavior.


    “So…” He continued to ask tentatively, “Are you going to ept the invitation from Bradfort City’s


    principal and attend the conference, Director Hart?”


    Tony narrowed his eyes at his question. Then, he put out the cigarette on the ashtray.


    “Clear out my schedule for tomorrow.”
