Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 308

Even though it was not time to get off work, Myra could no longer continue with her paperwork. After

letting Tilly know about it, Myra walked to the elevator after she packed her things up.

Once she left Stark Group, she planned to hail a cab to leave. However, a black sports car slowly drove

to her in the silence. As the car window slowly rolled down, the door was opened to reveal the driver’s

face. Then, Tony exited the car.

He was still in his tidy business suit. Before they left in the morning, she was the one who matched his

clothes for him and helped him with his necktie. He had a slight smile as well as a gentle expression on

his handsome face.

Upon seeing Myra’s shock and vacant eyes, he walked over with a smile. “Why are you so shocked to

see me here?”

She subconsciously glanced at the time. Logically speaking, he will only be here in half an hour’s time.

Even though she had ended work earlier, she still ran into Tony waiting for her in front of the company.

“Are you tired?” Seeing that Myra was silent, he wrapped his arms around her waist, but he felt her

slightly stiffening at his touch. Without any deliberation, he tightened his embrace around her, but with

just enough force that would not make her belly feel uncomfortable. Her body slowly softened under his Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

touch.

“Yeah,” Myra quietly answered. “I’m quite tired today.” She suddenly grabbed his suit with force and

continued in a low voice. “Tony, I would like to return to my apartment today.”

“Alright. Let’s buy some groceries at the supermarket before heading back, alright?” Tony kissed her

forehead with much love.

She tightened her hold on his suit. Without taking note that they were outside the Stark Tower, she

suddenly asked, “Why are you so nice to me, Tony?” From the beginning, he had been infinitely patient

and loving toward her; he mentioned that he had fallen in love with her at first sight.

Tony froze for a moment before he opened the side door and helped Myra into the car. Then, he arched

his eyebrows. “Do you want me to treat other women in the same way too?” With that, he walked

around the car to get into the driver’s seat. Seeing that she was about to fasten her seatbelt, he pulled

the seatbelt over her and personally fastened it for her.

At that moment, Tony’s handsome face was rather close to her and his long eyelashes even swept past

her cheeks. Different emotions bubbled up within Myra, but she merely bit her lips and took a deep

breath.

The car quickly headed to the supermarket and after they bought the ingredients for dinner, they

returned to her apartment.

Her apartment was ransacked by burglars last Friday. However, when they returned today, the entire

apartment was already neatly tidied up. One could not tell that it had recently been robbed.

After Myra exited the car, she wanted to grab some ingredients. However, Tony took everything instead

and entered the elevator with his other arm wrapped around her waist. When they entered the

apartment, she followed him into the kitchen. Upon hearing the sound of the refrigerator being closed,

she suddenly returned to her senses and nudged him. “You can leave the kitchen now; I can prepare

dinner myself.”

Something flashed in his eyes, but he nodded and replied, “Alright.”

It was only when he walked out of the kitchen that his face darkened.

…

Myra had no idea what had possessed her. She clearly thought that the past was no longer important

and the most important thing now was her future with Tony. However, when she recalled what he had

done to her, she felt miserable. She knew that he would not hurt her, but those actions of his had

caused her considerable hurt and pain in that moment.

Time slowly flew past before there was finally a knock on the door of the kitchen. Myra turned and saw

Tony calmly standing at the doorway as he looked at her with slight exasperation. “Are you sure we are

having dinner tonight?”

His gaze swept past the stove. Apart from putting the rice in the pot, she had been so deep in her

thoughts that she did not do anything else. She did not even turn the heat on to cook porridge. She had

also realized that herself, but she still looked dazed, which was not her usual reaction.

Tony quietly sighed, then he walked to her and pulled her into his embrace. He gently cradled her belly,

but he tightened his arm around her waist. After pulling the troubled Myra into his embrace, he rested

his chin on her head as he suddenly said hoarsely, “Myra, if there’s something you’d like to ask, go

ahead. Don’t keep it within yourself like this. I can’t bear it to see you acting in this way.” His husky

voice had a tinge of fear and determination in it.

For him, it would be the best if everything was kept hidden from Myra for the rest of her life. However,

since everything had already reached this point, it was better to talk it out rather than leaving her with a

wild guess. No matter what, he would not let go of her. He knew very well that the means he used to

have her were rather despicable, but he would agree to any one of her conditions—except for leaving

him.

Suddenly, a lump formed in Myra’s throat. Even though Tony had done many hurtful actions in the past,

she guessed that he merely wanted her to leave Sean and be with him as soon as possible, judging

from the result of everything.

Sean’s motive was also quite clear. He wanted her to doubt Tony—and even better, to hate him and

leave him. However, she would not comply with his wishes to hurt someone who genuinely loved her.

After all, Tony had merely used wrong tactics in achieving what he wanted. Suddenly, she had no

desire to ask about anything. Just let this be. After all, such emotions are only temporary. I will forget

about these soon enough.

Myra stretched out with her arms and wrapped them around his neck. When she raised her head, she

looked into his eyes. “I wonder what you would like to have for dinner.” With that, she took a deep

breath. After seeing that Tony was stunned, she continued speaking, “I was just thinking about what to

make for dinner when you walked in.” She had no clue that she had been alone in the kitchen for

almost an hour.

When Tony heard her words, his body stiffened as his lips twitched into a smile. He lowered his head

and gave Myra a kiss. His slight tobacco and mint scent made her bite his lips uncontrollably.

While looking at her innocence and purity, Tony felt pity and pain on her behalf. He wrapped her into a

tighter embrace. Suddenly, he asked, “Sean asked for you at Stark Group earlier today, didn’t he?”

Myra froze before she muttered, “It must be Tilly, that gossipy girl.”

Tony chuckled in a low voice. To him, Tilly was the perfect friend and subordinate for Myra. He was

more relieved to have her around Myra. Of course, it was unavoidable that she would pass some useful

information to him as well, but this was not what he wanted to discuss today. He stared into Myra’s

eyes and smiled. “You really have no questions for me?”

After a pause, he kissed her pink lips again. “I know what he will tell you. If you would like to know, I

wish I’m the one who tells you everything myself.”

“Have you ever thought of hurting me?” Myra suddenly blurted out.
