Chapter 221
Rachel pursed her lips, thinking that something seemed off. However, she had no time to think about it
at this moment.
Tony had already gone to Cameron’s study because thetter wanted to speak to him. Now that Tony
and Myra were a couple, it had definitely ced Rachel and Kris at a disadvantage. Nevertheless, it
was better for them that Tony came here today, since it would not hurt to let him witness Myra’s cruelty
earlier.
With a dark look in her eyes, Rachel caressed her belly and murmured, “Baby, please be useful. These
are the final two things you can do for Mommy.”
Myra sat on the couch to watch some television, so she did not go back to her room immediately.
Kris was busy with the preparation in the kitchen for a long time. After that, she served a ss of
lemonade and two cups of coffee. When she walked past Myra, she even put the lemonade on the
table in front of her. “Sis, I know you like lemonade so I made this for you.”
Myra merely smiled and looked at the other two cups of coffee on the tray.
Even though Kris tried her best to hide it, the shyness in her eyes could still be seen.
“I think Dad and Tony might be thirsty, so I’m serving them two cups of coffee.”
With that, she turned around and walked to the stairs.
Myra noticed that Kris had specifically changed her clothes for this. When they were eating just now,
she wore a set of pink workwear but now, she was wearing an off-shoulder light yellow long dress that
reached her ankles, which revealed her shoulders at the same time. With a tray in one hand, her other
hand held her dress as she walked up the stairs, making her look gentle yet sensual.
There was a hint of mockery in Myra’s eyes but she turned around and continued watching the
television.
Of course, she was clear about Kris’ motives. However, if Tony was a man who would easily sumb
to seduction, Myra would not be with him at this moment.
Sure enough, Myra was right—she had no idea what happened in the study but she heard Kris’
exmation and the cups breaking.
Soon, Cameron scolded her loudly, “What the hell are you doing here? Get out!”
His voice was so loud that even Rachel—who was resting in her room—was shocked and she quickly
walked outside.
Once she exited her room, she met Kris, who wasing out of the study; thetter had an extremely
dark look on her face.
Earlier, Kris was serving coffee to both Cameron and Tony. When she gave it to Tony, he did not reject
her and instead thanked her politely. Immediately, she could not hold back her wild thoughts anymore
and pretended to stumble and fall into his arms. Unexpectedly, even in front of Cameron, Tony
immediately reached out to push her away without a second thought.
At that time, she was still holding the cup of coffee so it sshed onto her hands. As it was quite hot,
the back of her hand felt like it was burning and it hurt a lot.
“Mom…” With a look of resentment on her face, tears welled up in her eyes. She red at Myra, who
shot a nce at her while she sat on the couch downstairs watching television, before turning back to
look at Rachel. Kris stretched her hand out and muttered, “Mom, my hand hurts…”
Rachel red at her daughter. She could guess what had happened inside the study, so she scolded,
“Don’t y tricks!”
Kris was spoiled by her mother. Even though she could suppress herself sometimes, she was
impulsive most of the time. Thinking of their nter, Rachel grabbed Kris and said, “Stop causing
trouble here and remember to hold meter. If the n fails today, don’t expect me to help you
anymore!” Rachel spoke in hushed tones before she red at her own daughter in disappointment.
However, after she turned around, she looked at Myra, who was sitting downstairs. “Myra, I’ve
prepared a nket for you,” Rachel murmured softly. “Your current nket is too small and I’m sure it
won’t be enough for… tonight. Just give me a moment and I’ll go get it for you.”
When Rachel said ‘tonight’, she felt slightly awkward. Then, she turned around and walked to the
storeroom.
Myra stood up from the couch and walked to the stairs.
Before she even reached the second floor, however, Kris had already blocked her way.
“Myra, you must be very pleased!” At this moment, Kris no longer had the smile on her face that was
just trying to cate Myra. Thinking of Tony’s attitude just now, she simply could not wait to scratch
Myra’s face in hatred. Based on their background, Myra was no better than Kris, since she was already
half-exiled from the Stark Family. Also, based on their capabilities, looks, and talent, Kris was no worse
than Myra, yet Tony would not spare the former a second look.
Feeling the pain in the back of her hand, Kris’ facial features were almost distorted as she lowered her
voice, “Just you wait and see—your life will not be a bed of roses anymore.”
“Alright,” Myra said indifferently. It was obvious that she did not want to talk to Kris, so she avoided her
and continued walking upstairs.
Seeing her indifference, Kris felt angrier.
I’ve spent so much effort chasing her away, yet shees back here to take my inheritance and my
man away!
“Myra, you b*tch! No wonder Sean wants a divorce!”
If it wasn’t for the study behind her, Kris wanted to give Myra a good hard p in the face. However,
she only turned around to grab Myra’s arms to stop her from walking upstairs. “How could a useless
woman like you be shameless enough to be associated with the Hart Family? You’re just embarrassing
Tony! You—”
“Kris!” A sharp voice suddenly interrupted her words.
Kris’ face changed immediately and she looked at Rachel, who was walking out of the storeroom. At
this moment, Rachel had a dark look on her face as she walked to them arduously with a nket in her
hands.
“How could you speak to your elder sister this way? Apologize to her immediately!” Rachel red at
her daughter fixedly with a furious expression on her face.
After noting the warning look in Rachel’s eyes, Kris’ body jolted and she loosened her grip on Myra’s
hands. She gritted her teeth without saying another word.
In Rachel’s mind, she was already cursing her daughter to hell and back. She nearly destroyed my
ns! If Kris chose to pick a fight, we would not be able to hold our groundter!
Rachel’s expression changed rapidly and when she looked at Myra again, her expression was one of
guilt. “Myra, Kris has been spoiled by me, so please don’t hold it against her. I will lecture herter;
don’t be angry.”
“Why would I be angry?” Myra stopped walking upstairs. Her gaze swept past the resentful Kris before
sheughed lightly. “I just heard a dog barking all this while. It smells bad though.”
“You—” Kris turned around and red at Myra angrily. However, this time around, she did not dare to
do anything else.
Myra merely had a cold and indifferent look in her eyes.
Rachel seemed to be tired after holding the nket for a long time. Hence, she looked at Myra kindly.
“Myra, I prepared this nket for you but I don’t know if you’ll like it. If you don’t, I’ll change it
immediately. Can youe with me, though? I’m feeling much weaker now and I get tired easily. I also
don’t know what you like, so it’s better if you choose it yourself.”
At this moment, Rachel had an old nket in her hands. Myra wondered if she did this deliberately,
because the pattern and the color of the nket was obviously not to Myra’s liking. However, Myra
merely said, “Let’s go with this. Just put it in my room.”
Rachel blinked before she spoke in an even gentler tone. “I saw the nket that you used to use in the
storeroom, but it was ced quite high so I couldn’t reach it. Myra, since you are already back, you
don’t have to be too polite; just be casual and free. Why don’t you go to the storeroom to take it
yourself?”
