Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 126

So, he’s just asking me to keep it a secret. Lyla’s heart tightened before she heaved a long sigh. “Don’t

worry. Even if Director Hart doesn’t tell me this, it will only remain a secret between both of us.”

How stupid do I have to be to spill the beans? After all, what I want now is to marry Sean and be the

future Mrs. Chase.

At such an important juncture, she wanted the incident to be a secret even more than Tony.

“In that case, Miss Fisher, the transaction for all the properties under Chase Group in Hilliville will be

completed by Director Hart this afternoon,” Leo reported indifferently.

Lyla’s heart raced. Sure enough, Director Hart did not lie to me!

Her lips curled into a vindictive smile as she happily replied, “Thank you to both of you, Leo and

Director Hart.”

After Lyla hung up on the call, Eve had a worried expression on her face when the former walked back

to them. As soon as she saw Lyla, she quickly asked, “Are there any problems? Is the important

customer still buying the properties from us in Hilliville?”

When Eve saw that Lyla did not look optimistic earlier, she had considered all the possible outcomes in

her mind. She carefully regarded Lyla so that she would not miss any change in the latter’s expression.

Lyla merely glanced at Eve before she looked at Sean lovingly. Then, she walked to him and held his This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

arms. “Mrs. Chase, Sean, don’t worry. The customer just told me that he will carry out the transaction

with Chase Group this afternoon and he’s going to pay the full amount to us.”

“I-I-In full?” Eve’s eyes immediately widened. This means that all our investments will return to us? This

is so much better than what I expected!

However, he frowned and lowered his head to look into her gentle eyes. “Lyla, how… did you know that

customer?”

He had always been brooding about his understanding of her for the past two years because he felt

something odd about it. For example, how did Lyla know such a wealthy customer? After all, those are

properties that cost billions. It’s not an amount of money that an average businessman can afford, let

alone paying it in full.

Lyla clearly saw the doubt in Sean’s eyes, so she caressed his arms as she answered, “Sean, after I

left you two years ago, I swore that I will be someone useful to you one day. For the past two years,

I’ve been working hard on my piano career, so I have more connections. Actually, I don’t know the

customer myself, but the Walton Family was the one who introduced us. I’m sure you’ve heard of them,

right? Since I played piano at the Old Master Walton’s birthday celebration, I have become quite close

with them. After hearing that we are in a tough spot, they introduced me to that customer.”

“Lyla, do you even know people from the Walton Family?” Eve was shocked to hear that.

Lyla humbly answered, “I guess you can put it that way.”

When she saw that Sean was still frowning, she said worriedly, “Mrs. Chase, Sean, if you don’t like me

revealing my face much in public, I understand. In the future, I will stay at home to take care of my

husband and children. I will make the home a comfortable place for them…”

Eve’s contempt toward Lyla slowly disappeared. Since she has many important connections like the

Walton Family, this is going to be useful for Sean’s future career. Since both of them love each other…

She sighed in her heart and spoke to her son, “Sean, since we are already here, why don’t you marry

Lyla? We’ll get the marriage certificate first and we can choose an auspicious day to hold the wedding

later. In the past, it was my fault for separating the both of you for two years. In the future, I hope both

of you live blissfully.”

Sean was still engrossed in Lyla words—‘after I left you two years ago, I swore that I will be someone

useful to you one day’. This is probably enough. In this aspect, Lyla seems to have done as much as

Myra for me. Why do I feel like I’m listening to another person’s story when I was listening to her earlier,

though?

While looking at the red marks on Lyla’s neck, a proof of their passionate night yesterday, Sean

remembered how perfectly their bodies matched each other, be it two years ago or now. Suddenly, he

remembered that he saw similar marks on Myra’s neck earlier. Who left that on her? Who did she

spend last night with? We weren’t even divorced yesterday, yet she couldn’t wait to be under another

man!

As deep fury rose within him, he hugged Lyla closely and kissed her forehead. “Sure. Let’s head inside

to get married.”

“Sean…” Lyla sounded incredulous before she cried tears of happiness. “I’m so happy to hear that…”

Seeing Lyla’s overjoyed expression made him remember Myra’s coldness toward him. He let out a light

snort as he thought, Let’s see what Myra’s up to!

When Myra entered Tony’s car, her heart was still racing.

When they were not face to face with each other, they did not feel embarrassed to express their

thoughts aloud. Now that they were in front of each other, Myra did not even dare to look at Tony.

She took deep breaths after she got into the car as she was at a loss on what to say. I guess we

confirmed our relationship last night, but it feels like we haven’t clearly said the words to each other.

Suddenly, a shadow fell upon Myra. Before she could react, the man next to her had already stretched

his arms and wrapped them around her waist to pull her over. In an instant, she was directly sitting on

his lap.

“Tony, we are on a public street…” Myra turned and shyly looked out the window. At that moment, the

view outside the car was slowly being obstructed by the rising tinted window. Her heart fluttered and

she felt slightly weak from her shock.

“So what? We’re not doing anything illegal.” Tony arched his eyebrows. He felt a surge of satisfaction

when he saw her running over from the opposite side of the road to sit right next to him.

Suddenly, Tony lowered his head and pressed his lips onto hers as he took a bite of her.

After hearing her exclaim, his eyes narrowed and his gaze darkened as he looked at her pink lips.

“Seeing you still standing with Sean Chase after divorcing him, I keep thinking of ways to punish you,”

he spoke in a low and hoarse voice.

When he grabbed her arm, she could feel a warm and dry sensation traveling from her skin to her

heart.

It was a peculiar sensation that resembled an electric shock, but it was enough to make her addicted to

it.

“I didn’t speak to him voluntarily. He was the one who stopped me and demanded that I tell him the

person who bailed me out last night.” Unable to withstand Tony’s masculine seduction anymore, Myra

spoke quietly in his arms.

His nice body fragrance was enshrouding her slowly, as if she could drown in him.

Tony slowly took out a cigarette and placed it in his mouth. Without lighting it up, he looked like a rebel

as he asked her, “Did you tell her which man saved the damsel in distress?”

“No.”

“Hehe!” He took the cigarette away and snorted coldly as his face darkened.

Perhaps he thought that it was not enough, so he placed Myra back in the passenger seat. He then

started the engine to leave the spot while ignoring her throughout the entire process.

At that moment, he looked like a little kid who threw a tantrum simply because he was not praised for

something good he had done. Myra tugged on his right hand and asked, “Are you angry?”
