Chapter 276


    “Myra, I may not care about what people say about you, but you do, right?” Tony paused, then looked


    at the woman in front of him, who looked rather awkward. His expression became considerably gentler.


    “I know what you’re thinking. You’re afraid my reputation will be ruined, right?”


    He let out a low chuckle next to her ear, causing his breath to spread all over her neck. She found it


    ticklish and couldn’t help but shrink her neck back.


    Leaning over, Tony ced a kiss on her lips. “This society will always be a little harsher on women and


    a little more tolerant of men. I’m a man, so it doesn’t matter even if they throw dirt my way because it’s


    true that I already had intentions for you at the time.”


    Tony’s tone was nonchnt, but Myra squeezed her palms. She shot him a quick nce before looking


    down. “Anyway, since the situation is like this now, regardless of whether or not the dirt is on me, I


    won’t be able to wash it off.”


    It was just as Tony said. This society was always a little harsher on women and a little more tolerant of


    men. Even if Tony came forward right now to say that he was the one who took the initiative that day in


    the hotel, many people would just think that she was evil and asked him to stand up for her because


    she couldn’t clear her own name.


    People’s minds were veryplex, but hearing him say that he didn’t care what others thought of her


    was enough for Myra.


    When the feeling of being wronged slowly ebbed away, Myra looked up and met Tony’s gaze. All of a


    sudden, she said, “After I received the call from Old Master Hart, I… turned off my phone on purpose.”


    As expected…


    Tony narrowed his eyes.


    “I was a little confused. At that time, I figured if I told you, you would’ve rushed over. I was afraid you’d


    get into an argument with Old Master Hart.”


    Sebastian was already dissatisfied with her at that point, so if Tony acted out, it would only further


    anger the old man.


    Initially, Myra wanted to see what Sebastian would say, so on the spur of the moment, she turned her


    phone off.


    Tony tightened his hold on her waist. “If this happens again, I won’t let you off the hook so easily!”


    Stretching out both her arms, she circled them around his waist. She was going to say something when


    the sudden ringing of a phone stopped her.


    They both fell silent. Then, Myra let go of Tony’s waist and tried to reach for her bag. But, Tony didn’t let


    her do so and grabbed her hands before cing them back onto his waist. He stretched out his own


    arm to bring her bag over.


    By the time he got hold of her bag, the phone had stopped ringing.


    But, it didn’t take long before the phone started ringing again.


    Tony fished Myra’s phone out of her bag and handed it over to her.


    The call was from an unknown number, and although she didn’t really want to pick it up, she was afraid


    it might be a new customer, so she answered the call.


    However, as soon as she picked up, Sean’s slightly worried voice sounded. “Myra, are you all right?”


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Lately, Myra turned her phone volume up to maximum. Since the distance between her and Tony was


    close, he heard the male voice and found it utterly familiar.


    He narrowed his eyes a little, and a sharp gleam shed across his eyes.


    Myra froze. Undoubtedly, she knew how bad the sound leakage was, and she could more or less guess


    that Tony must have heard what Sean said.


    While she was stunned silent, Sean began to say a bunch of things. “Myra, don’t worry. I’ll issue a


    statement to rify that you didn’t do any of those things. That video is baseless. Myra, are you okay? I


    want to see you. Today, when I went to the Stark Group, I was nning to find you after I was done


    talking to your father, but you already left. Don’t think too much. I—”


    Before Sean could finish speaking, Tony directly took the phone from Myra’s hands and interrupted him


    in a bleak voice, “Myra’s in the shower. If there’s anything, just tell me. I’ll help you pass the message.”


    He had blocked Sean’s number long ago, so he didn’t expect that he would get a new number just to


    harass Myra!


    Upon hearing Sean’s words, Tony thought about how Sean went to the Stark Group today, and he even


    wanted to look for Myra. He remembered clearly warning Sean, yet he still didn’t give up… Tony’s


    expression gradually grew colder.


    Almost instantly, Sean’s tone became stony. “Who are you?”


    Tony smiled, but Myra saw that it didn’t reach his eyes. He said frostily, “Director Chase, you’re quite


    forgetful. We just met not too long ago.”


    “Tony…” The green veins on Sean’s hand that was holding the phone began to bulge.


    He thought that at this time, she would probably be getting attacked by the Hart Family. He thought that


    by finding her, he would be able to give herfort, but he didn’t expect that Tony would actually stay


    with Myra!


    “Please pass the phone to Myra. I have something to say to her.” After knowing who was on the other


    end of the phone, Sean’s face became void of expression.


    Mockery was clear on Tony’s face. He suddenly bowed his head and buried it somewhere near the


    right side of Myra’s neck before biting her ear.


    Myra couldn’t dodge in time, so she couldn’t help but yelp, but Tony swallowed the sound and suddenly


    threw the phone aside. Without caring about whether or not the call was still connected or if he had


    hung up, he kissed Myra.


    When he heard the soundsing from the other end, Sean held his phone in a deathly grip.


    He stood in front of the office’s floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the crowd. His heart felt empty.


    Starting from a certain point, after knowing what kind of woman Myra was, he actually… couldn’t let her


    go.


    Hearing the woman’s repressed moans and the man’s rough gasps, Sean knew Tony, with how


    despicable he was, was doing this on purpose, but he had no way of stopping it.


    Once upon a time, Myra was his wife, so he should’ve been the one sleeping next to her and hugging


    her, but this luxury had be another man’s!


    As soon as he thought of another man taking away Myra’s innocence, there was a sharp pain in his


    heart. It was as if a fire was burning inside, and his heart was soon turning into ashes.


    He hung up the phone with no expression on his face. Out of nowhere, he smashed his phone into the


    corner of the wall. With a ‘crack’, the phone broke into pieces.


    “Director Chase, is something wrong?” Richard heard sounds and pushed open the door. Upon seeing


    the scene inside, he frowned and walked to the corner of the room before picking up the shattered


    phone. “Director Chase, do you need a new phone immediately?” Richard asked calmly as he pushed


    his sses up.


    Sean seemed to have thrown away all of his strength along with that smash. He massaged his


    forehead. His eyes were tired, and even his voice was hoarse. “Richard, you can go out first.”


    Richard nodded. “All right, Director Chase.”


    However, just as he was about to walk out of Sean’s office, Sean called out and stopped him. “Richard,


    at that time, all the evidence pointed to Myra stealing the Chase Group’s trade secrets and giving them


    to the Hart Group. What’s your take on that?”


    Richard froze, then looked hesitantly at Sean. “Director Chase, this matter…”


    “This time, I just want to hear the truth about what you think of the matter.” Sean’s voice was filled with


    fatigue, but when he turned to look at Richard, his gaze was grave.
