Chapter 246
It was silent on the other end of the line and there were only sounds ofbored breathing and some
static noise. Myra frowned slightly and she repeated herself, “Hello, may I know who is on the line?
How can I help you?” However, she was greeted with the same silence.
She waited for a long time—it was so long that she assumed it was a prank call. Just as she was about
to hang up, a hoarse male voice spoke. “Myra, I want to see you.”
Myra was very familiar with this man’s voice—it was one that she had heard more than a thousand
times in her dreams. However, listening to his voice now no longer had the same effect as the past,
where her heart used to race. She scowled deeply and muttered, “I have nothing to say to you.”
Sean must have known that she was about to hang up on him because he sounded anxious and urgent
when he said, “Myra, Tony is not a good person. He has been plotting for a long time to be together
with you. You have to believe me!” I am sure that the man isn’t as devoted to Myra as he presents
himself to be. He must have an ulterior motive, but I just can’t seem to find concrete proof at the
moment! Well, there’s the Hilliville project. However, it might not just be that project because there
might be other things that we are not aware of!
“Sean, I am truly curious as to why you’re telling me this.” Myra struggled to hide her anger and
unhappiness. Sheughed mirthlessly and she retorted, “What’s the matter? Do you feel that you’ve
lost your manly dignity since I am not suffering after leaving you? Are you unhappy because I am doing
well in life? Will you be happy only if I miss you to death and pester you every day after leaving you?
Let me tell you this, Sean—I am not a cheap woman!” Myra was bewildered by Sean’s sudden phone
call.
He remained silent after listening to Myra, but he did not deny her ims.
In the beginning, I was mocking Myra in my heart when I saw how she just couldn’t wait to divorce me
at the Civil Affairs Bureau. I thought that she was just pretending to appear unrestrained and natural,
and I assumed that she was just trying to hold onto herst shred of dignity. I was so sure that she
woulde crawling back to me in the end. However, I did not expect her to end up with Tony Hart.
After learning that Tony and Myra had be a couple, Sean felt that it was uneptable. She is my
wife! How could she be together with that man? She told me that she is in love with me and me only, so
why is she smiling so happily with that man?
Sean gripped his cell phone so tightly that his knuckles turned white. “Myra, we were once husband
and wife—I would never lie to you. One day, you will understand that I am doing it for your sake,
whereas that man has been plotting to be together with you. He’s only going to hurt you!”
“That’s enough, Sean.” Myra could no not hide her frosty tone anymore. “Have you ever treated me
right? If you haven’t, please do not im that you are doing this for my sake after our divorce. You
im that another man has been deliberately plotting since he treats me well. Why don’t you try
recalling how you treated me in the past? Since we’re divorced, you should stop switching phone
numbers to contact me. I honestly do not know you well anymore, and I am not interested in having an
outsider criticize my private life. Also, you should mind your current wife if you have the time.”
Myra recalled Ling right in front of Tony and herself in the afternoon. She was asking Tony for
help and I was rather upset. Why is the couple showing up constantly in my life ever since I’ve divorced
Sean?
“Myra, you will regret it!” Sean’s expression changed drastically and he squinted at the heavy traffic
outside of his car window. “I even heard that Tony used to have a woman in the United States and
she’s back here looking for him. Myra, how well do you know Tony? You do not know how cruel this
man is. He disregarded his best friend, who had fought and struggled with him, for his selfish interests
by dissolving thepany and in the end, he only distributed 10% of the shares to his close friend. He
is the Devil, who will utterly destroy someone and one day, you will—”
Click! Myra hung up on the call straight away and she blocked the phone number swiftly. She stared at
her cell phone and a sh of anger reflected in her eyes. I did not know that this man is such an
abomination. I can’t believe he is talking bad about someone behind their back. Has he forgotten how
he treated me in the past? Is he trying to disgust me further by iming that he’s doing this for my
sake?
Myra’s phone started ringing again and her expression soured. However, when she noticed the caller
ID on the screen, she realized that it was Mr. Smith from the Parker Group. She rxed significantly
before answering the call. Mr. Smith was calling her to inform her about the contract between the two
Before the call ended, Mr. Smith invited Myra for a meal, and indirectly hinted for her to bring Tony
along if thetter had the time. Myra knew that Mr. Smith was actually inviting Tony, but she did not
want to bother Tony further. Hence, she skillfully changed the topic before hanging up.
Tony has helped me tremendously during the contract signing in the Ritz Carlton today. He must have
been worried that something might crop up. His appearance in the private room today has confirmed
our rtionship, and he did that to make sure that Parker Group does not underestimate the Stark
Group in the future. Myra’s mood improved tremendously when she thought of Tony. Initially, she
wanted to phone him, but she changed her mind when she recalled that he was most probably in a
meeting now.
After work, Myra packed her things, and she made her way down the building after bidding Tilly
goodbye. The elevator stopped at the Project Department and she bumped into Kris, who was entering
the elevator with luggage in tow. Thetter was dressed beautifully and sensually, a stark contrast from
her usual office wear. Most importantly, she was dragging a small luggage with her. It was obvious that
she was preparing to go on a trip.
Kris’ expression fell once she saw Myra. Nevertheless, she merely snorted and the two of them acted
as if they had not seen each other. When the elevator arrived at the ground floor, both of them left the
elevator simultaneously.
Myra left the Stark Group and she made her way directly to a ck SUV parked right outside. At that
moment, a domineering man was leaning against the front of the SUV. He was wearing a suit and had
on a pair of leather shoes. He had a serious expression but he was unmistakably handsome. The man
was using his phone, whereas a cigarette was dangling from his other hand, causing smoke to shroud
his face and blur his facial features. Nevertheless, his elegance was recognizable instantly.
Myra blushed slightly when she saw Tony, and she immediately felt annoyed with herself. I’ve been
together with him for such a long time but I still get butterflies whenever I see him.
Myra walked slowly toward Tony. He had already stubbed out his cigarette and was smiling at her. He
then wrapped his arms around Myra while nting a soft kiss on her forehead. “Let’s go. Grandpa
asked us to head home today and Grandma misses you.”
Myra nodded. Tony opened the door of the front passenger seat for her. Just when she was bending
down to get into the car, she saw Kris, who was staring at them, from the corner of her eye. Something
seemed to sh through Myra’s gaze but she took her seat in the car swiftly.
Tony had also noticed Kris, who was standing nearby, and he narrowed his eyes slightly. Then, he saw
the personing over to pick her up and his thin lips curled into a faint smile. The car drove away
quickly.
Behind them, Kris was staring at the man who came over to carry her luggage. “Didn’t I ask you to be
here by 5.30 PM? Look at the time now—it’s almost 6!”
The man’s friendly face appeared apologetic as he murmured, “I’m sorry, baby. The traffic was heavy
today but it won’t dy your journey.”Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
