Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 246

It was silent on the other end of the line and there were only sounds of labored 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. She laughed 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 claims.

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 her last shred of dignity. I was so sure that she

would come 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 become a couple, Sean felt that it was unacceptable. 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 claim that you are doing this for my sake after our divorce. You

claim 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 Lyla coming 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 the company 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 flash 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 claiming 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 relaxed significantly

before answering the call. Mr. Smith was calling her to inform her about the contract between the two

companies.

Before the call ended, Mr. Smith invited Myra for a meal, and indirectly hinted for her to bring Tony

along if the latter 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 relationship, 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. The latter 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 black 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 This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

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 planting 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 flash 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 person coming 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 delay your journey.”
