Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 247

Kris just could not muster her anger whenever she came face-to-face with Hayden, who had never lost

his temper with her. I’m not sure why but ever since I met Hayden, he has had me wrapped around his

finger! However, I need to remind myself who is the man I need to marry!

She got into the car gloomily and Hayden seemed to sense her foul mood. After he got into the car, he

pulled Kris closer to give her a kiss. The kiss seemed to have ignited his passion because he almost

pinned her underneath him in the car.

“What are you doing?” Kris regarded the man in front of her, who was drowned in lust. She shoved

against him and she scowled unhappily. “Why aren’t you driving yet? I will never let you off the hook if I

miss my flight!”

Hayden merely chuckled good-naturedly as he released her. “Alright, alright. I will send my baby to the

airport now. Come to think of it, does the Stark Group have a project abroad? Why are you flying to the

United States out of the blue?”

Kris’ gaze flashed mysteriously. However, she kept her head lowered while pretending to adjust her

clothes, so Hayden did not notice anything amiss. “Dad wants to expand the business abroad and he

asked me to check out the situation,” she answered lightly.

“That makes sense.” Hayden produced a delicate pink box out of nowhere suddenly, and he presented

it in front of Kris. “Open it and have a look. See if you like it.”

Kris’ eyes shone brightly but she pretended to look away. “What is it?”

Hayden smiled at her without answering her.

Kris accepted the box and her mood improved straight away. Recently, Hayden is almost like a

changed person. He is always giving me surprises here and there. These gifts do not cost a bomb but

they are pricey. If I were to put together everything he has given me, it will no doubt be a hefty amount.

True enough, when Kris opened the box, she found a 12-carat, pink diamond ring nestled in the box.

The diamond was huge and cut into a luxurious peony-shape, and it was simply stunning.

“Thank you.” Kris thanked Hayden quietly while hiding the delight in her heart.

Hayden chuckled while caressing her head. “Do you like it?” Judging by his tone, he seemed to be

hinting at something else.

The hint couldn’t be more obvious when a man in love was presenting his woman with a ring.

I will not accept Hayden’s ring, but this ring is especially beautiful and I can’t bring myself to reject it…

Just as she was hesitating, she did not notice a trace of darkness flash through Hayden’s eyes. Soon,

she heard his gentle voice. “Kris, don’t panic. I just want you to be happy, which is why I gave you this

present. Please don’t overthink it.”

And so, she happily accepted the gift without feeling pressured after listening to Hayden’s explanation.

“Hayden, I really like the gift. Thank you so much, Darling.” Kris beamed brighter than before.

It is wonderful to have a lover as generous and understanding as Hayden!

She leaned over to kiss Hayden’s cheek before she looked down to study the diamond ring, not

noticing his smiling face stiffening slightly.

This was Myra’s third visit to the Hart Residence. She went empty-handed the first two times, and she

even accepted a gift from Lisa when she left during the second visit. This time, she was determined to

buy gifts for everybody.

Hence, she made Tony park the car in the mall. She wanted him to give a second opinion, so the two of

them went into the mall.

They shopped around and soon their hands were full with bags.

Some were gifts for Sebastian and Lisa, and there were also presents for Serena and Henry. Myra also

prepared a gift for Shawn too, just in case.

However, after buying a ton of gifts, Tony didn’t seem ready to leave.

Myra counted the gifts and she felt that she had everybody covered. Then, she asked Tony, who was

standing beside her, “Aren’t we leaving? Do you have something else you need to buy?”

Tony’s expression fell when he heard that. Even when he was holding multiple shopping bags, he still

managed to emit a domineering but restrained aura. He squinted slightly and his narrowed eyes glinted

menacingly as he looked at Myra, who was standing in front of him. In the end, he asked casually, “Are

you done shopping? Have you got a gift for everybody?”

“Yeah. Old Madam Hart, Old Master Hart, Serena, Henry and Shawn… Oh—is Damian coming back

too?” Myra knew that Damian was usually in the troops, so he was rarely home.

Tony raised a brow at her and he gazed at her with a slight smirk. “You seem to be keeping tabs on

them accurately.”

Myra pondered for a while when she noticed his expression. Her large eyes then twinkled with a smile

as she teased, “Are you being difficult because you assumed that I’ve forgotten to buy you a present?”

Tony chuckled coldly but his laughter did not sound genuine. The next thing she knew, Myra felt a

sharp pain on her waist because Tony had pinched her hard.

“Tony!” Myra wasn’t sure what to feel. “You’re so childish for a man in his thirties! Haven’t I bought you

a shirt not too long ago?”

Then, Myra immediately recalled that the shirt was charged on Tony’s card… She cleared her throat

and she clung onto his arm, dragging him into a nearby shop.

However, Myra became embarrassed immediately because it was a lingerie shop for women.

Once they entered the shop, the shop assistant welcomed the two of them with a warm smile and she Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

greeted them enthusiastically. “Sir, Miss, may I know what you’re looking for? Do you need any

recommendations? We have a new batch of products recently; the style and quality are top-notch and

comfortable. Why don’t you give it a try, Miss?”

The shop assistant’s eyes twinkled brightly. She knew that this was a huge opportunity for her, judging

by the shopping bags the couple had in their hands.

Myra wanted to reject the shop assistant shyly since they had entered the shop by mistake. However,

Tony picked up a set of lingerie seriously and he spoke to the shop assistant. “I want another two sets

of this size, in black and white.”

The shop assistant didn’t seem embarrassed at all. On the contrary, she picked up two sets swiftly.

After selecting Tony’s requested pieces, she made her way directly to the cashier.

Myra flushed a deep red straight away.

She knew from the beginning that Tony was not a shy man. However, this was her first time seeing a

man choosing a woman’s lingerie in such a collected manner!

Compared to her awkwardness, Tony appeared extremely calm. He held onto her waist while making

his way to the cashier, and he looked as if this was a natural thing to do.

He paid by card and left the shop after picking the bag up.

Myra really wished the ground would open up and swallow her when she saw the shop assistant’s

suggestive gaze. Tony is such a hooligan! Does he want everybody in the world to know that he knows

my measurements?

She did not select any gifts for Tony by the time they got into the car.

Myra was still hung up on the incident in the shop, so her cheeks were still flaming red; her eyes were

slightly moist and they accentuated the darkness of her pupils. Somehow, she seemed even more

charming than usual and she did not look angry at all. In fact, she seemed to be… throwing a tantrum.

“You’re old enough, so why are you still blushing so easily?” Tony asked casually while glancing at a

blushing Myra, who was seated in the front passenger seat.

Then, he reached out to pinch her cheek.

It is a taboo for women to have others comment on our age, especially if they were to comment directly

that we are old!
