Chapter 446


    For the entire day, Myra didn’t care much about Tony because he pulled a prank on her early in the


    morning. This time, Tony had pushed it a little too far though, for they almost ended up in a roley this


    morning, and Myra looked like an aggrieved little wife.


    Still, Tony couldn’t figure out why she was so mad. He merely pretended to be asleep and made her


    touch a spot which she thought to be very sensitive, but he didn’t expect that she would jump out of


    bed in a huff. Even after he repented within himself, he still couldn’t figure it out. Perhaps, he didn’t


    understand that she was mad because she thought that she finally got the chance to sneak up on him,


    but everything was actually under his control.


    Later in Stark Group’s office, Myra was busy with work. Thepany was now on track, unaffected by


    the change of ownership. Cameron’s whereabouts were unknown, and he might pose a danger in the


    future, but she wouldn’t exterminate him since everything was on track now, and she was satisfied that


    she was able to get back what was rightfully hers.


    As she flipped through the documents, she recalled what happened in the morning, and a smile spread


    across her face when she remembered Tony’s face when he was at a loss. In fact, she wasn’t really


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    mad at him at all, but just ying around with him.


    Most likely, he was only acting like this in front of her. Comparing him to herself, she thought that the


    contrast in him was even more bewildering. After some time, he sent her a sticker through Messenger.


    The sight of the sticker brightened up her smile. It was a sticker of a character from the Rage Comic


    series with the words, ‘Darling, please don’t ignore me.’ The expression on the sticker was on-point and


    amusing.


    You’re not the only one who has stickers, Myra thought as she sent a sticker as a reply. The one she


    sent had the words in bold, ‘The sender rejected your message.’ Seeing that Myra had stopped


    ignoring him, Tony grinned unwittingly. They were so passionately in love that they could catch up with


    the young couples nowadays.


    Using stickers tomunicate the minute they got into a fight, they exhausted the stickers they’d


    saved up, and it was Myra who stopped in the end. Scrolling back to review their conversation, she felt


    that they were so childish because they only used stickers from the beginning until the end, but it


    amused her very much.


    “You’re so childish, Tony,” she said with a chuckle.


    Finally, Myra had sent him some text, and Tony breathed a sigh of relief. There were all sorts of bizarre


    reasons that could set a woman off, and he could only tolerate it no matter how ridiculous it was.


    ‘What are you doing?’ Tony sent her a proper text this time.


    Myra took a nce at the piled up documents in front of her and rubbed her temples. There was still so


    much work left to do, and she replied simply, ‘Working hard now. Let’s stop here. I’m busy.’ She wanted


    to stop texting him because she had to prioritize work when she was at work.


    Just when they could finally chat a little, she decided to cut it short. However, he could only go along


    with her, and after thinking about it, he sent another sticker to her.


    It was a sticker with the word ‘OK’ written in a huge font. She took a nce at it and ced down her


    phone in contempt, wondering where he got all his stickers from. The stickers she had on her


    Messenger were all saved up from the conversations she had with others, and when she thought about


    Tony doing the same thing, she found that situation a little hard to imagine.


    After putting away the messy thoughts in her mind, she lectured herself in her head. I’ve always been a


    serious person at work, but I’m now being led astray by Tony. This is not good. I have to continue to


    work hard.


    When it was evening, she stayed back at work. As she was taken out of office by Tony on the previous


    day, a lot of work was left unfinished because she missed a day at work. Hence, she had to work


    harder on this day by working overtime. While Tony was already done, she was still working.


    When he arrived at her office, she was still in the midst of work, so he cleared his throat softly to catch


    her attention. Lifting her head, she saw him, and immediately, a smile appeared on her face unwittingly.


    There were some people who were simply able to put a smile on her face whenever she saw them.


    Putting up a stern face, he asked, “Did you ask for my permission to work overtime while you’re still


    carrying my child?”


    The way he stared at her made her feel really guilty, and his question put her in the wrong. Before this,


    he had already told her that she could work, but with proper time management and not overloading


    herself.


    In Tony’s eyes, working overtime was an unforgivable act, and the look in his eyes turned stricter.


    However, Myra merely looked at him innocently; there was only a little left to her work, and she really


    didn’t want to put it off until the next day.


    “Can you show some leeway, Tony?” she begged in a cute tone. There’s just a little left, she thought,


    still holding the pen tightly in her hand.


    He walked closer to her and snatched the pen away from her hand, saying, “No.”


    In an aggrieved voice, she said, “There’s just a bit left and I’ll be all done. I don’t want to leave it for


    tomorrow because the work will build up again.” She had deliberately softened her voice so that he


    could let her have her way.


    A frown appeared between his brows as he said, “Take a seat on the couch. I’ll take care of the rest for


    you.” Even though he came to that decision by himself, she decided it was best not to argue with him,


    so she gave up her seat.


    Without a doubt, it was a breeze for Tony to deal with work as this was one of his capabilities. After


    sitting in her ce with a serious look, he began going through the documents expertly. Although it was


    a differentpany, the work was about the same. Moreover, he was rather familiar with the Stark


    Group.


    Hence, within a short time, he had finished her final bit of work of the day, and he looked at her. “Do


    you need to go through these as well?” Seeing that there was still a pile of documents on the far right


    corner, he asked if those had to be dealt with as well.


    “No. I’ll go through those slowly by myself.” That pile was not just any simple documents; many


    she needed to take her time with it.


    By the time they reached home, the sky had already turned dark. Even Sebastian and Lisa thought that


    they were homete on this day. Myra stuck out her tongue at Tony discreetly and they exchanged a


    look without taking the older couple’s words to heart.


    Then, they nodded in unison and promised that they wouldn’t do it again. Lisa even specially told her,


    “Your health is the most important. Don’t work so hard.”


    Hurriedly, Myra nodded in agreement; it was true that she had been working too hard as a pregnant


    woman, and this wouldn’t do any good for her child’s development.


    She shouldbine work with rest, but she had been too concerned about Stark Group recently. With


    that thought in mind, she decided to visit the florist the next day. It had been a while since she was


    there thest time, and it was about time for her to rx with a visit there.


    The next day, Myra specially asked Heather out to the florist. Coincidentally, Heather didn’t have much


    to do on that day, and she freed up her morning to visit her at the florist.


    Early in the morning, Heather dealt with her work at hand quickly and found an excuse to slip out of the


    office. As usual, she drove her small car, which she liked very much. It was a tiny two-seater car, and


    she felt very cozy being in the car, feeling as though she was wrapped in it.


    When she reached Myra’s florist, she saw that she was learning flower arrangement from Sharon, the


    florist in her store. Thinking that it was interesting, she joined them, and they only stopped when they


    both came up with pieces they were happy with.


    Looking around at the decorations of the store, Heather then said with a smile, “It’s decorated very


    beautifully and in a very creative way.” After all, Myra came from a design background. So, the ce


    wouldn’t turn out bad with her participation in the decoration.


    “How have you been, working in the Langston Group recently?” Myra asked. It appeared to her that


    Heather was in a good mood, and she was the kind of person who could do well regardless of where


    she was.


    However, Heather waved her hand and replied, “Things at the Langston Group are a headache. ke


    is getting more and more unreasonable.” The mention of this made her disgruntled because she didn’t


    think that ke would resort to that sort of tactic to deal with her.


    “What happened?” Ever since they were young, Myra had often listened to Heather’sints about


    ke, and she would usually go along with her.


    “I thought he wouldn’t joke around with thepany’s interests, but he’s now even more extreme and


    doesn’t care about thepany’s interests simply because he wants to put me down in front of others,”


    she exined helplessly. All in all, he shouldn’t have disregarded thepany’s interests.


    Surprised, Myra thought that even though ke was a little annoying, Heather had always said that he


    had the thoughts of their family andpany on his mind. However, looking at things now, it seemed


    that ke’s paranoia had worsened, and Myra always had a bad feeling about this guy, who was a rich


    brat and a womanizer. “So how do you n to retaliate?” she asked. Based on her understanding of


    Heather, Myra knew that she wasn’t a sitting duck, and would definitely retaliate.


    Spreading her hands, Heather replied, “I really don’t n to fight with him this time.” This answer


    caught Myra by surprise because she didn’t expect that she had no ns of fighting back. Heather


    tilted her head and grabbed a bunch of baby’s-breath flowers to her nose to take a whiff. “This soft


    scent is very refreshing.” It seemed like she didn’t want to continue with this topic any longer.


    Myra was a tactful person as well, so she decided to end the topic with Langston Group. After some


    hesitation, she decided to get straight to the point with what she had in mind. “I have a favor to ask of


    you,” she said with a mysterious grin on her lips.


    Seeing how she appeared, Heather could immediately guess what was on her mind, and she smiled


    sheepishly as well. “Things are going well between you and Tony, right? So you’re expecting an


    expensive gift from me because you’re getting married, huh?” Judging from how brightly Myra was


    smiling, she could easily guess what her friend was thinking. Heather was an intelligent woman, and


    that sort of blissfulness Myra was emanating was clear for all to see, so it wasn’t hard to make a guess.


    “You have to be my maid of honor,” Myra said determinedly. She was a little worried that Heather might


    not agree because she did mention that she didn’t like to be a bridesmaid.


    Previously, when someone in her family was getting married and asked her to be a bridesmaid, she


    would turn them down without a second thought. However, she merely paused for a second at Myra’s


    request before giving her a firm response.


    “Maid of honor? Then I have to dress prettily! And you better get a best man who’s tall and handsome.”


    She agreed so readily that Myra felt the weight was lifted off her shoulders instantly. The only suitable


    person to be her maid of honor was no one else but Heather.


    After a few seconds, Heather added with a solemn expression, “I’ve dedicated my first time to you, so


    remember this—I should be the only bridesmaid because I don’t want to be ced in a group of


    bridesmaids with other girls.” Heather always liked to be the only one, and this request was within


    Myra’s expectations.


    Nodding, she agreed with a smile. Heather seems a little livelier and happier today, Myra thought. I


    wonder what’s making her so happy. Looks like what’s happening at Langston Group isn’t affecting her


    mood at all. However, she still noticed something and felt that there were some small changes


    happening with Heather.


    There were some changes that even Heather didn’t notice; she didn’t imagine that Matthias would bring


    about such a change in her. Ever since Valentine’s Day, she had deliberately kept her distance from


    him to emphasize the distance they should keep from each other so that they wouldn’t take it too


    seriously.
