Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 202

All in all, did Tony help me enter the Chase Family so that he could claim Myra for himself?

Lyla’s whole body was drenched in cold sweat upon this realization, and she couldn’t control the icy

feeling permeating from within her heart either.

“Director Hart… I’m sure you wouldn’t want Myra to find out who gave me those photos, right?” Lyla

blinked slowly, her expression full of anger and resentment. As she stared at the man in front of her,

she was reluctant to accept what was going on.

The Hilliville Project’s doing so well right now. Obviously, Tony must have had his eyes on the

development of Hilliville since back then. Could it be that he’s in fact after Myra’s stake in the project?

As soon as Tony heard Lyla’s words, his expression became unreadable. “Miss Fisher, I’m sure you

wouldn’t want to do that.”

“Why wouldn’t I?” For a split second, Lyla’s emotions went out of control as she yelled at him. Upon

noting his unflappable attitude, she forced herself to calm down. Biting on her lower lip, she stared at

Tony while she questioned, “Tell me, Director Hart—are you interested in Myra or the Hilliville project?”

“Miss Fisher, if you’re intelligent enough, you should keep a tight grip on the Chase Family as per what

you’ve done previously.” Tony suddenly took a puff of his cigarette. The billowing smoke that ensued

masked not only the expression on his face, but also the flash of coldness in his eyes.

“Keep a tight grip on the Chase Family…” Lyla immediately tightened her fists.

He’s right. It’s quite evident that I’m gripping tightly onto them. If it wasn’t for this child, I wouldn’t be on

speaking terms with them right now. Eve and Sean’s attitude toward me isn’t exactly reassuring, and

the actual situation I’m in right now is a far cry from what I had imagined previously. I had thought

things would end up perfect and harmonious, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

“Director Hart…” All of a sudden, Lyla’s eyes brightened as she continued, “Director Hart, I believe

you’re only after Myra’s 40% stake in the Hilliville Project, yes?” Lyla questioned him hastily.

It took me so much effort to steal Sean away from Myra. Besides, I succeeded in showing that she’s a

complete and utter failure. How on earth did I allow her to turn the tides and recover from that?

Just then, Tony extinguished the cigarette in his hand and flung it into the trash can nearby. As he

raised his head, the cold indifference in his eyes was clearly noticeable. Ignoring Lyla’s question, he

said instead, “I heard you went to confront Myra today.”

Despite his calm voice, Lyla couldn’t help shuddering at his comment. Gritting her teeth, she argued,

“Myra and Sean are divorced but she’s continuously bothering him. Why can’t I confront her about

this?”

“What do you mean by continuously bothering Sean?”

Lyla wasn’t quite sure whether she had missed something. She sensed that despite Tony’s cold voice

earlier, it wasn’t as chilling to the bone as to what she was experiencing right now. However, she

refused to give in and lose momentum, so she continued, “Someone saw the two of them in a

compromising position. Don’t tell me you didn’t know that? How can you be attracted to such a

flirtatious woman?”

Tony laughed lightly in response but his eyes were devoid of any amusement.

He sat upright on his swivel chair as he placed his right hand on the desk. Tapping the desk with both

his index and middle finger, he asked, “Are you going to tell Myra about the photos?”

Lyla was momentarily stunned but she maintained a tight grip on her hands as she muttered, “I just

want an answer from you, Director Hart.”

“Honestly, Miss Fisher, I think you already have your answer.” Tony’s eyes suddenly turned icy cold as

he lifted his head to look at Lyla squarely in the eye. Noting the change in her expression, Tony

causally commented, “Miss Fisher, have you considered the consequences of revealing the truth about

the photos to Myra?”

Lyla’s body stiffened in response.

If I tell Myra the truth, she may seek an explanation from Sean. What’s going to happen then? What if

Sean questions me about this? How am I supposed to explain that I intentionally falsified things to

place the blame on Myra? I’m obviously going to expose myself by doing this. However, what does

Tony mean by me having the answer?

All of a sudden, Lyla recalled another incident.

As soon as Tony had decided to bid for the Hilliville Project, there was a significant incident that

happened within the Chase Group. According to Tony, the deal would fall through if there was bad

press surrounding Sean. As such, it was necessary to frame Myra and send her to prison.

In fact, if Tony’s end goal was to gain Hilliville, then simply taking charge of it was sufficient, so why

was he so concerned about Sean’s reputation at that time?

Perhaps he used that as a tactic to force us into framing Myra. By doing so, he ensured that she would

sever all ties with the Chase Family and forsake her last shred of feeling toward Eve and Sean. In the

end, Tony personally went in to rescue her.

The news that got reported back to me was that someone had bailed Myra out on that night itself, and

everything else went smoothly. I thought it was Cameron who made that move but judging by their

relationship, it’s impossible he would rescue Myra.

Lyla felt as if she was stuck in an icy underground cellar at the moment.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

As such, was the Marina Bay Bridge incident an unexpected revelation or was it intentionally revealed?

What role did Tony play in this incident? If he was the one who plotted all this, he’s definitely a

formidable person…

Lyla couldn’t control her trembling self. She felt as if she had fallen into a trap and that she was merely

a chess piece in one’s game.

“Were you the one behind the Marina Bay Bridge incident?” Lyla asked, her face as pale as a sheet.

Tony took out another cigarette and lit it. The white smoke billowed and filled the room as it masked the

dangerous intent in his eyes. “From now on, stop bothering Myra,” he casually commented.

As soon as Lyla heard that, she stumbled in shock and took a few steps backward as she tried to

maintain her upright position.

“Tony, I don’t believe that you’ve fallen in love with Myra!” Lyla exclaimed as she bit on her lower lip,

leaving a noticeable white tinge on it.

Tony shifted his cigarette butt aside and his expression became clearly visible—his face was cold and

devoid of any emotions as he shot a look at Lyla. “There will be a lot of things in the future that will be

beyond your expectations.”

“What do you mean by that?” Lyla was frightened by the look in his eyes.

Looking at his watch, Tony calmly stated, “Your ten minutes is up.”

“Tony Hart!” Lyla yelled out. At the same time, she no longer bothered to control the envy and jealousy

in her eyes.

How can this happen? This is Myra Stark we’re talking about! Tony has actually fallen in love with her?

How is this possible? That woman’s way inferior compared to me. Despite marrying Sean, she ended

up being abandoned by him. How can Tony be attracted to such a worthless person?

“Have you really fallen in love with Myra?” Lyla’s chest heaved up and down.

It’s no wonder that Myra had such a haughty look this morning when she was facing me. Her

confidence must be due to her being aware that she can count on Tony to back her up.

“Don’t you realize what kind of woman she is? She doesn’t love you at all! The person she loves is

Sean! She has been infatuated with him for six years—that’s six long years! Besides, she was married

to him for two years. How can you be attracted to such a tramp? She must be trying to get back at

Sean and that’s why she chose you! She’s just making use of you!”

Lyla couldn’t control herself as all the negative emotions she had experienced all this while spewed out

of her, and her eyes had a crazed look to them.

This man here has always appeared all high and mighty and I have always thought that no one could

win his heart. I don’t care if no one can win his heart; or rather, I would wish him well if he met someone

else from a similar background and someone as impressive as him. If he married such a woman, I

wouldn’t be so frustrated. However, the woman that caught his attention turned out to be Myra! I hate

her so much and I’ve finally felt content after taking my revenge on her, so how can I accept this?

Currently, Tony’s face was clouded over and it looked as if there was a storm brewing.

“Director Hart, have you considered this carefully? We’re both on the same team. I’m just worried that

you will fall for Myra’s tricks. As a matter of fact, I know her better than anyone else—she’s completely

infatuated with Sean. Therefore, I don’t see why she would go after someone else other than to

provoke him.”
