The last point was to help everyone understand Tony’s injury better. However, the fact that Tony went to the construction site for no reason and saved Miss Stark from being hit by a brick was intriguing news.
Everyone naturally knew who Miss Stark was.
Lucas chuckled, “Wow, Tony, you are a hero!”
Leo instantly felt a cold glare from Tony and knew that he had said too much. However, his mission was already complete so he hurriedly shut his mouth and left the room.
Meanwhile, Philip grabbed the first aid kit he always kept in his bag and walked up to Tony.
“Tony, if this wound is not treated well, it will cause inflammation and it will be troublesome.”
Tony casually pulled a chair and sat down. Then, he squinted and said placidly, “Don’t worry about it.”
Hearing this, Philip was taken aback. Does that mean we’ll deal with his wound later?
Soon, the four of them sat around the table and an exquisite dinner was served.
“Tony, the three of us discussed the Hilliview project today,” Lucas said with a serious expression. “Since you said that we must sell all the properties in Hilliview immediately, we will try our best to sell them before the market collapses. It doesn’t matter if we lose money. At least we’ll lose less this way.”
Hilliview was originally a business district planned and designed by the government, intended to be the second-largest business district in Bradfort City beside the downtown city district, but the real estate collapse had left its blueprint in ruins.
The four of them had placed a lot of their fortune in this project. After they heard about the collapse, they had instantly started discussing ways to sell the property.
All of a sudden, Philip laughed and said, “We are doing fine. There’s no need to be so worried. I heard that Chase Group has invested half of its funds into the Hilliview project. If they don’t deal with the problem well, they might go bankrupt again…”
Everyone knew Sean’s relationship with Myra. This is a good opportunity for me to gloat about Sean’s problems in front of Tony.
After hearing this, Tony narrowed his eyes and said flatly, “What good will Chase Group’s bankruptcy do for us?”
His tone sounded casual, but the three other men smiled at each other knowingly.
They were discussing business at Zion Club while Myra, who was at the construction site, was hesitant.
It was only after the clock struck 7:00 p.m. that she finally left. Before she left, David shoved Tony’s suit into her arms.
“Miss Stark, you are close with Director Hart. Please hand him back his suit. The people working on the construction site are rough, so I worry that we might accidentally dirty or ruin it.”
Myra took over Tony’s jacket. She was from the Stark Family and her mother was born in a wealthy family, so she knew the value of Tony’s suit. The pair of dark blue diamond cufflinks were worth hundreds of thousands, let alone the exquisite texture and handwork of the suit.
After giving it some thought, Myra agreed to his request.
However, after getting in her car, she felt a little troubled.
Even though Tony saved me today, his attitude made it clear that he doesn’t want to have too much contact with me.
With that, Myra decided to call Leo.
When Leo heard that Tony’s suit was with Myra, he felt excited but pretended to be anxious and said, “We were looking for that suit! Miss Stark, can you help me check if there is an audit document for the Sunny Bay Project in the inner pocket of the suit?”
Myra was surprised and she quickly searched for it. Sure enough, she found a folded document in the suit.
“Yes, there is.”
“Oh, great.” Leo let out a sigh of relief. Then, in an apologetic tone, he asked, “Miss Stark, I can’t leave right now. Can you send Director Hart’s suit and document to VIP room A in Zion Club? Director Hart needs that document tonight.”
Myra was hesitant. “I’ll hand it to the receptionist at Zion Club. You can go and take it from them later.”
“That won’t work. It’s a confidential document.”
To be honest, that document was given to Director Hart by the site supervisor for approval. After reading it, Director Hart had casually stuffed it into his suit. It’s just a useless document.
Hearing this, Myra helplessly replied, “… Okay.”
Placing the suit to the side, Myra told herself that she was just going to send him the suit and document.
It isn’t a big deal. Besides, I still have to continue seeing Tony in the future. I can’t hide from him forever.
The discussion of business matters went very smoothly and dinner was coming to an end, but seeing that Tony wasn’t planning on leaving, the three other men suggested playing some poker.
The subject of their discussion naturally went from business matters to daily life.
Elliot had been holding back his curiosity the whole night and he couldn’t hold back anymore. He nudged Tony with his left arm and asked, “Tony, is there anything you want to share?”
Because of his wound, Tony could only play with his right hand. However, he sat straight and his right hand was steady. He was smoking a cigarette so when it was his turn to play, he could only leave the cigarette hanging from the corner of his lips.
Tony played seriously with his eyes narrowed and his posture looked elegant and thug-like at the same time.
After hearing Elliot’s question, he raised an eyebrow and asked, “What are you talking about?”
“Tell us about Myra!”
He hit a brick away to protect a woman. It is hard to imagine that Tony would do something like that. Is it possible that he has fallen head over heels for her?
Elliot was a little unwilling to accept it. “Can’t you fall for someone else?” He emphasized the words ‘someone else’ heavily.
Upon hearing this, Tony glanced over with a strange smile. Then, he lifted his left arm slightly and replied, “What do you think?”
Seeing that Elliot was a little discouraged, Philip chuckled, “Enough. Elliot, don’t you know what kind of a person Tony is? Have you ever seen him treat a woman like this before?”
“Damn!” Elliot finally figured out the situation and he played a card upsettingly. “At first, I was planning to persuade Tony to give up on Myra, but it seems… never mind. Tony, you should hurry up and win her heart. It doesn’t matter that she’s a married woman…”
As soon as he finished this sentence, Tony suddenly flipped his cards over and glanced at Elliot.
Philip looked over and couldn’t help but laugh. “Elliot, you’ve already lost a lot of money to Tony. I think it’s best if you zip your mouth.”
Looking at Tony’s royal flush, Elliot almost burst into tears. “Tony, why do you have to be so good at this?!”
He was about to continue when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Hearing this, Elliot immediately frowned. “Didn’t I already tell them that I was using this room tonight and warned them to not disturb us?!”
Tony casually flicked the ash from his cigarette butt and a mysterious look appeared on his face. “Perhaps they are not here to disturb us.”
Seeing Tony’s expression, Lucas squinted and gestured to Philip. Philip, who was sitting nearest to the door, immediately got up and walked toward the door.
Elliot noticed that Tony had put out the cigarette that was only half-smoked in the ashtray beside him. Then, Tony turned to fix his gaze on him.
“Why are you looking at me? Tony, the cigarette brand that I have been smoking lately is the same as yours,” Elliot said as he raised the pack of cigarettes in his hand.
Lucas fell into deep thought for a moment. Then, he smiled and put his cigarette out in the ashtray. “Who cares about what brand of cigarette you smoke? Elliot, hurry up and put out your cigarette. Otherwise, the future Mrs. Hart might choke on your smoke.”
“Mrs… Mrs. Hart?!” Elliot finally understood what was going on and he hurriedly put out his cigarette. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?! Why is she here all of a sudden?!”
