Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 369

“I’m clearly better than Sean—you know that now, don’t you?” Tony casually gave Myra a sideways

glance. She was taken aback for a short moment, but she quickly giggled in response to his words.

“Are you still troubled by the fact that I used to like Sean?”

He raised an eyebrow, but he was relieved when he saw the playful look in her eyes. He was afraid that

Myra would still be sad over her mother’s video, but he realized then that it didn’t take her too long to

regulate her emotions.

“I wonder how some heartless, ungrateful woman rejected me multiple times for the sake of a useless

man like him.” Tony pinched Myra on her cheeks. He still felt a hint of anger whenever he recalled how

Myra had rejected him a few times in the past. He lowered his gaze before he bit onto her lips then. “I

can’t believe you even mentioned things about you enjoying a married life with Sean just for the sake of

infuriating me.”

Tony’s bite didn’t seem to hurt Myra at all, for her gaze was still filled with amusement as she looked up

at him. She then stuffed her face into his chest. “It felt like I was stuck in a dead end back then. I can’t

even imagine how things would have turned out if you hadn’t been there for me.” I would have probably

been tortured by Lyla and Sean if I remained in that miserable marriage, wouldn’t I? They would be

happy, but I wouldn’t.

“Why did you fall for me, Tony?” A muffled voice came from the woman leaning against his chest. Tony

was careful not to press on the baby in her belly as he shifted around while sighing. “I fell under your

magic spell, and I couldn’t seem to fix my gaze on any other woman after that.” As he uttered the last

few words of his sentence, he pushed Myra slightly further away from him so that he could look into the

woman’s warm and gentle eyes. He was thankful that Myra hadn’t blamed him for his stubborn faults in

the past, and he was glad that she didn’t seem to mind about all the things that he had once been

terrified to tell her about. Nothing mattered to him as long as they were together. “You should bring me

to visit your mother, Myra. You should introduce me to her, right?”

Myra blinked twice before she beamed and nodded. “Yeah.”

…

The both of them headed to the Hart Group building. Myra hadn’t planned to go to the office initially, but

Tony insisted for her to follow him over as he said he wanted to bring her somewhere. He went through

his usual documents and meetings in the morning, and Myra had some of her own work to do.

After they arrived at the company, Myra received numerous phone calls from a few of the Stark Group’s

board of directors. The Stark Group was in a critical condition, and Cameron was unable to provide

anyone with a perfect solution. Everyone on the board of directors was therefore panicking, and they all

came to a single conclusion. They decided that Myra might be able to do something since she was a

large shareholder and a potential heir of the company. Myra was a powerful individual herself, and she

had Tony’s support, so the board of directors knew that they would feel safer if she was willing to help

them out.

The shareholders on the board hadn’t informed Cameron of their decision to seek help from Myra, for

they simply proceeded with their plans. They seemed to have realized something after they saw how

Myra hadn’t stepped forward to support Cameron when the Stark Group was threatened. Furthermore,

although Myra and Cameron appeared to get along on the surface, the board knew that they secretly

had a hostile relationship with one another. The board’s intentions were clear the moment they

approached Myra for help.

“Miss Myra, we’ve decided to host a shareholder’s meeting in response to the financial issues that the

Stark Group is currently facing. We are proposing to have a new chairperson for the Stark Group.”

Finally, it was one of the most powerful individuals, a person who had once been Jenny’s subordinate,

who informed Myra about this. This shareholder had engaged in multiple arguments with Cameron in

the past, and he had already approached Myra once when she first returned to the Stark Group. He

had already indirectly made the same suggestion in the past. Back then, Myra was reluctant to agree to

anything and was too afraid to make any rash actions—she felt too uncertain about the situation then.

“I’m not going to go around in circles with you, Myra. I’m sure Old Master Stark must have had a will,

right? I believe he must have named you as the owner of the company. He allowed your mother to build

the Stark Group, and he brought her up as a businesswoman in the past. After that, he handed his

shares in Stark Group to you and even left half of the Ritz Carlton’s shares for you, so I’m sure he must

have planned to hand the company to you. Since the company’s struggling right now, I believe your

father no longer has the ability to lead the Stark Group, and I hope you take this chance to step forward

just like your mother did in the past. You need to reinvigorate the business.” The man on the other end

of the line spoke in a serious tone.

Myra paused for a moment after she heard what the man said. “I understand what you mean, Mr.

Baker. I’ll think about it.” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Alright. I hope you come to a decision soon.” Myra massaged her temples after she got off the phone

with the man. She hadn’t gotten much rest in the past few days, and she felt especially drained

whenever she thought about the company’s matters. After some contemplation, she finally headed out

of the lounge for a stroll. Right then, someone rang the bell to Tony’s office, and Leo walked into the

office moments later.

He pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose as he directed his gaze, not to Tony but Myra instead.

“Miss Stark, there’s a young lady called Olivia Stark who would like to see you,” he uttered with a rather

thoughtful gaze.

“She’s looking for me?” Myra was surprised. She was in Tony’s office then, and any visitor who arrived

usually asked for Tony. It was rare for anyone to visit the Hart Group in search of her.

“Hold on. Mr. Clark, what did you say her name was again?” Myra narrowed her eyes.

“Olivia Stark.” Leo took a glance at his boss and quickly understood his boss’s intentions when he saw

that Tony had nothing to say. “Perhaps you should come out and meet her, Miss Stark. She looks like

she’s only 12 or 13 years old, and I think she might have something important to talk to you about.”

“A 12 or 13-year-old girl… Olivia Stark…” For some reason, Myra had a weird feeling about this. She

instinctively turned to look at Tony. Tony had made his way over to her and reached out to hold her

hand then. “What is it?” he asked gently.

“Why’s this young girl asking for me?” Confusion gathered between Myra’s brows.

“You’ll find out when you go out and ask her about it.” Tony gave her a light-hearted chuckle.

“But…” Myra wasn’t sure if she was just overthinking, but she felt like the girl, Olivia Stark, might be

related to her somehow. But my father doesn’t have any siblings, and Olivia Stark… Her surname’s

Stark… She frowned a little as she seemed to realize something. Right then, she turned away from

Tony as her face turned pale. “I don’t want to see her.”

Tony felt sorry for her when he saw the pained expression on her face. He pulled her close and pecked

her on her forehead. “I know what you’re thinking, and your guess is right. Olivia’s your biological sister.

I think I owe you an apology—I’ve found out about their existence for a while now, but I haven’t told you

about it.”

“…Why?” Myra’s voice was hoarse. Ever since she found out about Rachel, she felt like her heart had

been scarred and would never heal. Rachel’s existence came as a huge blow to Myra and her mother,

and it was the main reason Myra refused ever to forgive Cameron. Myra knew that Tony was well

aware of this.

“Olivia and her mother seem to be victims as well, Myra. Your father is too much of a hypocrite, and it

was too late for them when they found out about this. Olivia and her mother had been attempting to

escape from your father’s grasp for a long while, but they only managed to get away from him last

year.” Tony pulled her close and looked into her eyes as he was afraid that she would get angry.

“They’re victims as well. Furthermore, the mother has a brain tumor. She’s in her final stages of cancer,

and they’re suffering because they don’t have much money.”

“Why don’t they have money? Didn’t Cameron give them any?” Myra’s tone of voice was still rather

hostile. She couldn’t help but feel angry toward all the women who had been with Cameron. It

reminded her of how Cameron had betrayed her mother, and how much her mother had suffered

because of it!

Tony let out a long sigh and gave her a hug when he saw the look of distaste in her eyes. “I can just get

Leo to send the young girl off if you really don’t want to see her.”
