Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 320



Chapter 320

It so happened that the four members of the Walton Family were in Gemma’s room when she received

the writ of summons. Upon reading the contents of the document, Edward almost fainted out of anger.

We, the Waltons, are acquainted with the Hart Family. This time, it is undoubtedly Gemma’s fault, but

everybody could tell that she has paid the price for her actions. On the contrary, the brat, Tony, will be

just fine after recuperating for some time. However, he is adamant on suing Gemma; he’s not bothered

about the shared acquaintanceship between the two families at all. If this is leaked to the public, the

Walton Family will suffer tremendously in Bradford City.

When the Walton Family barged into Tony’s room, Myra was leaning against his bedside. His arm,

which was not badly injured, had only slightly recovered, but he was already fooling around by insisting

on her lying down beside him. It was at this time when the door to his ward was slammed open with a

bang. She jumped in shock and immediately sat up.

Her clothes were in disarray, so she adjusted them hastily. However, her gaze was met with shocked

looks from the Walton Family when she looked up.

Edward’s expression darkened immediately when he saw the situation in Tony’s room.

The first thought that flashed through his mind was that Myra could have very well provoked Tony into

suing Gemma. This woman is in such a hurry that she has seduced Tony in broad daylight in a hospital.

Anger started to boil in Edward’s chest and he stared unblinkingly at Tony, who remained in bed. Tony’s

expression steadily turned cold from the time the door opened with a loud bang. “Tony, I need to speak

with you.”

Edward was wearing a grave expression and he glared at Myra with animosity and disdain. It was

obvious that he was gesturing for her to leave the room because they had something to discuss with

Tony in private.

She pressed her lips together and something flashed across her eyes. The next thing she knew, he

held her hand to give her a squeeze. Therefore, she acknowledged it by sitting at his bedside.

Tony steadily gazed at Edward. “Go on.”

Edward’s face instantly flushed red at Tony’s attitude. The brat clearly knows what I am hinting at, but

he is refusing to play along. Edward gripped his crutch tightly and a trace of anger flashed across his

face. “I am not sure who has blinded you, Tony! Nor do I know who has provoked you by saying certain

things. However, I hope that the issue between you and Gemma will quieten down as soon as possible.

Gemma did not crash into you on purpose. Besides, she has received her punishment. Hart boy, don’t

you think you are going overboard by suing her?!” He sounded aggressive.

When he mentioned about ‘I am not sure who has blinded you, Tony! Nor do I know who has provoked

you by saying certain things’, he glared at Myra sitting at the side.

Her hands stiffened reflexively when Edward glared at her. On the other hand, Tony merely squeezed

her hand in reassurance while he calmly faced Edward. “Old Master Walton, you might not be aware of

what exactly happened. I am sure that Gemma knows best why she crashed her car into mine. I am

sure that the court will judge fairly as to whether she did that deliberately or not.”

“How dare you!” Edward was taking advantage of being the elder one here. Therefore, he did not

expect Tony to humiliate him in such a way.

“Tony! My daughter is so in love with you! She gave up on men who have been pursuing her for your

sake, but this is how you treat her! You are willing to fall for the vixen. What gave you the right to sue

my daughter?!” Shelly took a step forward to viciously scream in rage since Edward did not manage to

make a point in front of Tony. After that, she pointed at Myra aggressively. “You! Do you think I have no

idea what’s going on in your mind? You are trying to ruin my daughter. Are you doing that to have a

steady position as Mrs. Hart? I will tell you this right now—dream on!”

“I don’t suppose it is any of your business whether that’s what I want, isn’t it, Mrs. Walton?” Myra

frowned deeply after listening to Shelly’s accusation. The Walton Family is here to find fault with us. It is

clearly their mistake since they were at fault to begin with, but here they are acting as if they have been

terribly wronged. “Miss Walton crashed her car into my fiancé out of selfishness. Why can’t we sue her

in court? On the other hand, Mrs. Walton, do you expect us to drop the lawsuit with this attitude of

yours?”

From the night of Tony’s birthday, Myra had started to resent the Walton Family. She did not dislike

them out of her disgust toward Gemma, but she found the entire family odd and unreasonable.

“How dare you fight back! Don’t you understand that the younger generation should keep quiet and

listen when the elderlies are speaking?!” Shelly had been feeling exhausted and worn due to Gemma’s

issues. Hence, the pent-up pressure and anger came bursting forth.

“In that case, shouldn’t you just keep quiet and listen when I am speaking, Mrs. Walton?!”

Before Myra could say anything, a deep and powerful voice boomed from the room entrance behind

them. Everybody turned to look at the door and it turned out that Sebastian and Lisa were somehow

standing at the entrance.

Shelly’s body stiffened whereas Edward’s expression darkened too. Nevertheless, he turned calmly to

look at Sebastian and Lisa, who were walking toward them. “Sebastian, you are here right on time,”

Edward sounded like he did not miss a beat when he greeted Sebastian familiarly and effortlessly. He

gazed at Sebastian and he started to speak as though he was forgoing his dignity. “Our families have a

long-standing friendship. I am sure that we do not want it to end amidst the arguments and

disagreements between the younger generations. Gemma made a mistake due to her reckless

behavior. Besides, she has learned her lesson. I heard that Tony will make a full recovery after

recuperating for some time. Why don’t we put this behind us and move forward, what do you think?”

Despite begging Sebastian, Edward was still standing tall and straight. He was staring at Sebastian

steadily when he said those words.

Nevertheless, Sebastian was an experienced person. He merely squinted at Edward while answering

in a cold and distant manner, “Edward, I have promised Tony not to interfere in this matter. To be

honest, I can’t stomach the fact that Gemma intentionally crashed into Tony. However, when it involves

the Walton Family… I am willing to look at the other side. However, I always educate the younger

generation that they must receive the appropriate punishment if they were to make mistakes. Edward,

are you able to do that?”

At the beginning of Sebastian’s speech, Edward seemed significantly relieved, but his face tensed up

immediately toward the end. He glared at Shelly, who had just worsened the situation earlier, before

asking stiffly, “Sebastian, are you suggesting…” Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Gemma has an evil heart and I am sure that you have noticed that. Nobody expected such a thing to

happen this time and we do not wish for this to happen again either. Why don’t you let Gemma have a

vacation abroad? I know that Gemma is in love with Tony, but there are plenty of good men out there.

Who knows—she might even meet a man better suited for her than Tony abroad. By the time she

returns, both families will have our happily-ever-after. What do you think, Edward?”

Sebastian’s expression remained calm and steady, whereas Edward’s face stiffened.

When Shelly heard Sebastian’s suggestion, her expression drastically changed. “Old Master Hart, how

could you do this to Gemma?! Aren’t you forcing her to leave Bradfort City?! I cannot agree to that!”

“Well, we are left with no choice, if you do not agree to it. I am sincerely trying to resolve this matter so

that the parties involved won’t feel like they’ve been wronged. it seems like I haven’t thought things

through. If that is the case, I will not interfere anymore.”

Sebastian waved his hand dismissively. Lisa held onto his arm and the two of them made their way

toward Myra while ignoring everyone else. He put down the food container he was holding onto while

asking Myra gently, “Is your belly doing well today? Your grandma woke up early in the morning to cook

this soup for hours just for you. You and Tony should enjoy it while it is still hot.”
