Chapter 273
L heard the entire conversation between the two people in the office.
From the way Sean defended Myra, she could tell how much he was yearning for her.
And Eve’s statement…
‘If you don’t like L anymore, then I promise I’ll find you a better woman in the future.’
It caused an indescribable sense of bitterness and anger to bloom in L’s heart.
Even if she was already aware of Eve’s personality, and even if she had anticipated the predicament
she encountered now, imagining it and experiencing it were twopletely different things.
Lately, she was truly tired, as she had been busy dealing with Eve and his mistress.
At the thought of the woman named Elsie being all high and mighty in front of her because she had
Eve’s backing, L clenched her fists as hatred washed over her.
She was well aware of the reason Eve repeatedly postponed the abortion of Elsie’s baby. She was just
reluctant to get rid of the fetus in Elsie’s belly after finding out that it was a boy.
L gritted her teeth when she thought of the fact that the child in Elsie’s belly was a boy.
Elsie doesn’t know her ce, and neither does Eve. The birth of that child would definitely threaten her
current status.
Thinking of Eve and Sean’s conversation gradually brought L to a state of despair.
Although she was now the Young Mistress of the Chase Family, Sean’s wife, and Eve’s daughter-in-
A dark gleam shed across her eyes. She didn’t enter the office but left the ce instead.
When Eve walked out of Sean’s office, one of Sean’s assistants told her that L had just been there,
but had left for some reason.
When Eve heard the assistant mention L, her mood turned for the worse.
She couldn’t stand having that woman stay in the Chase Family either! She had almost gotten it figured
out. After she gave birth to the child, she would think of a way to drive her out of the Chase Family. She
wouldn’t let her stay in the Chase Family for another second more!
“Understood.”
Eve gave the assistant a dismissive wave but suddenly thought of something, so she called the
assistant back. “When did you say Miss L arrived?”
“A short while after four. Not long after Director Chase returned,” the assistant answered honestly.
There was a slight change in Eve’s expression. She pressed her lips together, seemingly thinking of
something. Then, she left with a sour look on her face.
“What I said just now wasn’t a joke. I want to marry Myra. I don’t want to dy it any longer.”
Sebastian reckoned he shouldn’t have told them to get lost. He should’ve been the one to leave, lest he
died of anger right here because of these two people.
Upon hearing Tony’s words, Myra shot him a nervous nce, but he simply returned her aforting
look. Giving her hand a tighter squeeze, he said calmly, “Old Master Hart, I know that you’ve been
doing research about wedding ceremonies for some time now, and we’re not overly particr either.
Naturally, whatever you decide will be the best option.”
“Stop trying to tter me!” It went without saying that Sebastian knew his grandson’s behavior! Just
now, Tony was arrogant and cold, yet now he was buttering him up. How could he not know what his
grandson was up to?
Sebastian had indeed started thinking about hosting the wedding some time ago, as he quite liked
Myra. But, with the current situation, how could he still be in the mood to continue with the wedding?
“I did research about wedding ceremonies, but I didn’t do it for you. Hmph. Shawn has also gotten a
girlfriend, and they’re much better than the two of you!” The old man was resentful, and he deliberately
said that purely to anger the both of them.
However, as his thoughts turned to the girl Shawn chose, the corners of Sebastian’s eyes twitched.
Shawn’s girlfriend was none other than Myra’s good friend, who was the woman who would always say
things that made him furious whenever they were in the same room. Thinking of how one brother was

more troublesome than the other, and how their partners were more worrying than the next, Sebastian
was close to feeling suffocated.
“Then, previously you even asked me what kind of wedding ceremony I like…” Myra couldn’t help but
whisper.
Sebastian’s eyes immediately hardened like copper bells, and there seemed to be smokeing off
the top of his head.
He was seriously considering strangling the two people in front of him!
“I feel annoyed just looking at the two of you. What are you still doing here! Hurry up and get lost!”
Sebastian bellowed.
Tony took Myra’s hand and stood there, unmoving. His expression remained unchanged as well. “Then,
our wedding…”
“Get out! It doesn’t matter if you guys want to get married or how you want your wedding to be! Go and
create whatever mess you want to create!” The veins in Sebastian’s temple were throbbing fiercely,
and he figured that if he let the two of them stay there any longer, he would likely die from anger!
He didn’t want to care about their affairs anymore, but Tony was making it clear that he didn’t want to
leave matters as they were.
He wanted to marry Myra, so naturally, he wanted to do it with honor and with Sebastian’s blessing.
Narrowing his eyes, Tony stared straight at Sebastian. He wasn’t willing to leave, as Sebastian wished
he would.
The hairs on the back of Sebastian’s neck stood on end upon being stared down by Tony. He cursed
him in his heart and called him a brat! He had already given in to this point, but Tony still wasn’t letting
him go!
“You’re not leaving, huh? All right, then. I’ll leave. I can leave, right?!” Not wanting to continue being
scrutinized by his grandson’s imposing gaze, Sebastian straightened his back and was about to walk
past the couple.
“Old Master Hart, do you know that Eve has been trying to get Myra back to the Chase Family
recently?” Tony suddenly asked faintly when Sebastian walked past them.
“I don’t know who Eve is.” Sebastian snorted coldly but didn’t stop.
In fact, he knew who Eve was. Isn’t she Myra’s previous mother-inw?! That woman actually wants
Myra to return to the Chase Family? What’s the meaning of that? Although he was nervous,
Sebastian’s footsteps didn’te to a stop, but he slowed down a little.
Seeing Myra’s puzzled and doubtful gaze, Tony didn’t refrain himself and simply kissed her lips in front
of Sebastian. Although it was only for a brief moment, Sebastian saw it. His eyes twitched violently, and
he stopped without thinking before pointing at the two of them. “How immoral! Don’t you know how to
exercise restraint in front of me?”
“Why should I?” Tony was unperturbed.
Sebastian choked on a breath, and the anger in his heart rose.
He turned around and came to stand in front of them. Pointing at Myra, he eximed aggressively,
“You! You’re just going to let him do things like this?!”
Originally, Myra was flushed. Now that Sebastian was criticizing her and pointing at her like this, she
felt ashamed. She wanted to say something, but Sebastian immediately interrupted her. “That woman
named Eve… Has she really been asking you to go back to the Chase Familytely?”
His tone was dubious, and after speaking, he pretended to be nonchnt—as if he hadn’t just said
something.
Myra hesitated.
Of course, Eve never looked for her and never asked her to return to the Chase Residence, but… She
lifted her head to look into the eyes of the man next to her. His eyes were narrowed, and his hands that
had been holding hers were around her waist now. His grip was tight.
Myra felt helpless but remained silent.
