Chapter 266
Tony’s voice was low and humorous as he bantered. When Myra heard the word ‘wife’, her cheeks
started to turn red. He was not usually a sentimental man, but, surprisingly, hearing that word come out
of his mouth did not feel strange. Instead, it felt rather intoxicating.
Biting her lower lip, she murmured, “I’m not married to you yet…”
He let out a low and deep laugh. “Are you complaining that I’m not moving fast enough?”
Upon hearing his words, her face turned even redder. She bickered, “Forget it. I’m going to sort out
some documents now. Focus on your work. Don’t worry about things here.”
He acquiesced with a smile.
Soon after, their call ended.
Nonetheless, he did not change the direction he was going in even after he hung up.
When Tilly called him, she did not get a chance to talk to him, but he had heard everything that was
happening at the time. He knew that Sean had gone to Stark Group and heard him defend Myra.
Naturally, he also heard them talk about the video.
Hay Group… Sasha Hay…
He smirked at the thought of the woman who seduced him in his office back then, but the tip of his
brows showed the concern he felt. Stepping on the gas pedal, he hurried his way over to Stark Group.
Meanwhile, Gemma did not wait very long before Kris returned to the company.
Gemma’s expression was not great and neither was Kris’.
Not only did Kris bump into Estelle at City Hall, but she was even humiliated by both Estelle and
Shawn. How could she get over it?
“Gemma…” Even though Kris looked unhappy, she still forced a smile when she saw Gemma and
walked into her office toward her. “I heard you came to Bradfort City a while ago. Sorry, I didn’t know
you in the beginning, so I didn’t invite you. I only found out when Gideon talked about you last night.”
To be frank, Gemma looked down on the Stark Family, especially because it was Myra’s family. Ever
since she found out that Cameron and Kris stood in opposition to Myra, however, she immediately
agreed to her brother.
When she heard Kris’ words, she smiled at her. “What are you saying? We’ll be one family in the future.
Why are you being so courteous with me, sister-in-law?”
Thinking about the women around her brother, Gemma sympathized with the woman in front of her, but
in spite of her sympathy, she still wouldn’t betray her brother for this woman.
As soon as Kris heard Gemma, she started to blush. “You know how to tease me, Gemma!” Suddenly,
she remembered the phone call with her father earlier and looked at Gemma cautiously. “Gemma, my
dad told me that my pompous sister was rude to you outside his office earlier. Don’t be angry. That’s
the way she is. But don’t worry; Dad and I are still on your side.”
When Kris first heard about the existence of that video, she felt frustrated for a really long time. If she
had known earlier, she would’ve gotten closer to Sasha and got that video for herself. I didn’t think
Gemma would be so dumb. She clearly has a trump card in her hands, but she doesn’t know how to
use it properly! Instead, she let Myra step all over her and even humiliated Dad.
Gemma was instantly reminded of the incident that took place. At the thought of Myra’s arrogant and
smug expression earlier, she became livid and snickered. “It’s no wonder your dad wanted to kick her
out of the family that year. With her around, how will the Stark Family manage to stand tall and proud in
the business industry in Bradfort City?”
Even though Myra cheated, she still kept it a secret from everyone. Not only is Tony protecting her, but
it looks like she also has Sean’s protection after what happened today. Lyla is a good-for-nothing. She
can’t even keep an eye on one man! At the thought of Lyla, Gemma’s brows furrowed even deeper.
“What do you plan to do, Gemma? That video didn’t fluster Myra. Do you think she has a card up her
sleeve?” Kris asked in a composed manner.
“Didn’t fluster her?” Gemma scoffed. She still hadn’t forgotten how Myra’s face sank in an instant when
she first revealed the video. As long as this video is real, she can’t possibly remain calm!
“Why the rush? Myra may be good at talking, but how many people can she explain this to?” Gemma
looked down at her phone. “We can’t keep something so scandalous just between us, can we?
Wouldn’t it be more fun to share this with everyone?” A dubious light flickered across her eyes.
Kris acted surprised. “You’re brilliant, Gemma. Once everyone finds out about this, it will be over for
Myra.”
“I don’t care what moves she used in the past to deceive Tony and the Hart Family, and even Sean! I
have to see whether they would still want a disgraceful woman!”
Members of influential families emphasized the honor of their families. If Myra’s act was exposed and
her true colors were revealed to the world, at the very least, the Hart Family would no longer allow
Myra to be with Tony.
When Kris heard Sean’s name being mentioned, a puzzled look flashed across her face.
She couldn’t believe that Sean really helped Myra. In addition to seeing Sean outside Tony’s villa last
time, she started to have a look of ridicule as things were getting more and more interesting now.
…
After Myra hung up the phone, she began to think about the plan they discussed in the meeting earlier.
Then, she instructed Tilly to return the document to each department and make the changes according
to the plan they discussed in the meeting today.
Standing up from her chair, Myra moved her body around a little and was about to go to the break room
for some water with a cup in her hand when she heard an urgent knock on the door. It sounded
pressing as though it was something important.
She walked over right away to pull open the door. Tilly came right in from outside, making Myra take a
couple of steps back, then she closed the door again.
Even though it was only for a brief moment, Myra saw three to four female employees gathered
together and whispering to each other outside through the gap of the door. When they noticed her, they
quickly dispersed while acting nonchalant.
Tilly’s face was filled with anxiety. Putting her phone in front of Myra, she tapped into the entertainment
news and immediately revealed the headline of today’s news: ‘The daughter of Stark Group openly had
an affair while married; disowned by Chase Family after being secretly married for two years!’
The big red heading that looked like it was stained with blood barged into Myra’s line of vision without
any warning.
She felt suffocated for a moment but quickly clenched her fists tightly beside her.
The video of Myra running out of Tony’s hotel room in a disheveled state was exposed in the
entertainment news except they had blurred her face and only pointed out that the cheating woman
was the daughter of the Stark Family without giving a name. The man she had an affair with was only Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
described as a powerful man from Bradfort City, but his identity was not revealed. Nevertheless, Myra
and Sean’s divorce was a big issue at the time. Moreover, recent news about Myra and Tony being
together also spread like wildfire. Any person would be able to put two and two together.
The media also tried to depict her as a woman who only had eyes for the rich and looked down on the
poor. In the news, she became someone of a lower status who fawned over the powerful and rich.
Everyone else was made to be innocent while she was the only one stirring up trouble.
