Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 221

Rachel pursed her lips, thinking that something seemed off. However, she had no time to think about it

at this moment.

Tony had already gone to Cameron’s study because the latter wanted to speak to him. Now that Tony

and Myra were a couple, it had definitely placed Rachel and Kris at a disadvantage. Nevertheless, it

was better for them that Tony came here today, since it would not hurt to let him witness Myra’s cruelty

earlier.

With a dark look in her eyes, Rachel caressed her belly and murmured, “Baby, please be useful. These

are the final two things you can do for Mommy.”

Myra sat on the couch to watch some television, so she did not go back to her room immediately.

Kris was busy with the preparation in the kitchen for a long time. After that, she served a glass of

lemonade and two cups of coffee. When she walked past Myra, she even put the lemonade on the

table in front of her. “Sis, I know you like lemonade so I made this for you.”

Myra merely smiled and looked at the other two cups of coffee on the tray.

Even though Kris tried her best to hide it, the shyness in her eyes could still be seen.

“I think Dad and Tony might be thirsty, so I’m serving them two cups of coffee.”

With that, she turned around and walked to the stairs.

Myra noticed that Kris had specifically changed her clothes for this. When they were eating just now,

she wore a set of pink workwear but now, she was wearing an off-shoulder light yellow long dress that

reached her ankles, which revealed her shoulders at the same time. With a tray in one hand, her other Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

hand held her dress as she walked up the stairs, making her look gentle yet sensual.

There was a hint of mockery in Myra’s eyes but she turned around and continued watching the

television.

Of course, she was clear about Kris’ motives. However, if Tony was a man who would easily succumb

to seduction, Myra would not be with him at this moment.

Sure enough, Myra was right—she had no idea what happened in the study but she heard Kris’

exclamation and the cups breaking.

Soon, Cameron scolded her loudly, “What the hell are you doing here? Get out!”

His voice was so loud that even Rachel—who was resting in her room—was shocked and she quickly

walked outside.

Once she exited her room, she met Kris, who was coming out of the study; the latter had an extremely

dark look on her face.

Earlier, Kris was serving coffee to both Cameron and Tony. When she gave it to Tony, he did not reject

her and instead thanked her politely. Immediately, she could not hold back her wild thoughts anymore

and pretended to stumble and fall into his arms. Unexpectedly, even in front of Cameron, Tony

immediately reached out to push her away without a second thought.

At that time, she was still holding the cup of coffee so it splashed onto her hands. As it was quite hot,

the back of her hand felt like it was burning and it hurt a lot.

“Mom…” With a look of resentment on her face, tears welled up in her eyes. She glared at Myra, who

shot a glance at her while she sat on the couch downstairs watching television, before turning back to

look at Rachel. Kris stretched her hand out and muttered, “Mom, my hand hurts…”

Rachel glared at her daughter. She could guess what had happened inside the study, so she scolded,

“Don’t play tricks!”

Kris was spoiled by her mother. Even though she could suppress herself sometimes, she was

impulsive most of the time. Thinking of their plan later, Rachel grabbed Kris and said, “Stop causing

trouble here and remember to hold me later. If the plan fails today, don’t expect me to help you

anymore!” Rachel spoke in hushed tones before she glared at her own daughter in disappointment.

However, after she turned around, she looked at Myra, who was sitting downstairs. “Myra, I’ve

prepared a blanket for you,” Rachel murmured softly. “Your current blanket is too small and I’m sure it

won’t be enough for… tonight. Just give me a moment and I’ll go get it for you.”

When Rachel said ‘tonight’, she felt slightly awkward. Then, she turned around and walked to the

storeroom.

Myra stood up from the couch and walked to the stairs.

Before she even reached the second floor, however, Kris had already blocked her way.

“Myra, you must be very pleased!” At this moment, Kris no longer had the smile on her face that was

just trying to placate Myra. Thinking of Tony’s attitude just now, she simply could not wait to scratch

Myra’s face in hatred. Based on their background, Myra was no better than Kris, since she was already

half-exiled from the Stark Family. Also, based on their capabilities, looks, and talent, Kris was no worse

than Myra, yet Tony would not spare the former a second look.

Feeling the pain in the back of her hand, Kris’ facial features were almost distorted as she lowered her

voice, “Just you wait and see—your life will not be a bed of roses anymore.”

“Alright,” Myra said indifferently. It was obvious that she did not want to talk to Kris, so she avoided her

and continued walking upstairs.

Seeing her indifference, Kris felt angrier.

I’ve spent so much effort chasing her away, yet she comes back here to take my inheritance and my

man away!

“Myra, you b*tch! No wonder Sean wants a divorce!”

If it wasn’t for the study behind her, Kris wanted to give Myra a good hard slap in the face. However,

she only turned around to grab Myra’s arms to stop her from walking upstairs. “How could a useless

woman like you be shameless enough to be associated with the Hart Family? You’re just embarrassing

Tony! You—”

“Kris!” A sharp voice suddenly interrupted her words.

Kris’ face changed immediately and she looked at Rachel, who was walking out of the storeroom. At

this moment, Rachel had a dark look on her face as she walked to them arduously with a blanket in her

hands.

“How could you speak to your elder sister this way? Apologize to her immediately!” Rachel glared at

her daughter fixedly with a furious expression on her face.

After noting the warning look in Rachel’s eyes, Kris’ body jolted and she loosened her grip on Myra’s

hands. She gritted her teeth without saying another word.

In Rachel’s mind, she was already cursing her daughter to hell and back. She nearly destroyed my

plans! If Kris chose to pick a fight, we would not be able to hold our ground later!

Rachel’s expression changed rapidly and when she looked at Myra again, her expression was one of

guilt. “Myra, Kris has been spoiled by me, so please don’t hold it against her. I will lecture her later;

don’t be angry.”

“Why would I be angry?” Myra stopped walking upstairs. Her gaze swept past the resentful Kris before

she laughed lightly. “I just heard a dog barking all this while. It smells bad though.”

“You—” Kris turned around and glared at Myra angrily. However, this time around, she did not dare to

do anything else.

Myra merely had a cold and indifferent look in her eyes.

Rachel seemed to be tired after holding the blanket for a long time. Hence, she looked at Myra kindly.

“Myra, I prepared this blanket for you but I don’t know if you’ll like it. If you don’t, I’ll change it

immediately. Can you come with me, though? I’m feeling much weaker now and I get tired easily. I also

don’t know what you like, so it’s better if you choose it yourself.”

At this moment, Rachel had an old blanket in her hands. Myra wondered if she did this deliberately,

because the pattern and the color of the blanket was obviously not to Myra’s liking. However, Myra

merely said, “Let’s go with this. Just put it in my room.”

Rachel blinked before she spoke in an even gentler tone. “I saw the blanket that you used to use in the

storeroom, but it was placed quite high so I couldn’t reach it. Myra, since you are already back, you

don’t have to be too polite; just be casual and free. Why don’t you go to the storeroom to take it

yourself?”

“Rachel, you really want me to go to the storeroom, don’t you?”
