“Director Hart… Tony…” She took a deep breath and with a shy expression, she murmured, “You misunderstood me the last time. I’ve never even looked at other men. Perhaps you are unaware of this, but ever since I saw you at Old Master Hart’s birthday celebration, it was love at first sight. I fell in love with you uncontrollably…”
As she walked closer to him, the sorrow and shyness in her eyes became more apparent. Just as she was about to reach him, he suddenly asked, “Miss Hay, do you want me to give you another warning?”
He slowly took out a cigarette and lit it. Compared to her passionate advances, he was like an iceberg.
“I know you must be angry at me for not knowing my employee’s character. But if you delete the picture, Tony, everything can still be salvaged. Tony—”
“Who gave you the permission to call my name?” Tony breathed out a puff of smoke. When he turned around to look at her, there was annoyance in his eyes.
His sensual look right now was precisely the reason Sasha fell for him. Biting her lip, she said, “Yesterday, Old Master Hart said that… he likes me a lot…”
With that, Tony’s eyes narrowed dangerously before he suddenly gave a soft chuckle without any mirth in his eyes. “Miss Hay, I was the one who asked someone to take this picture of Miss Stark working.”
Following his gaze, Sasha looked at the picture once more, not knowing what he was trying to imply.
Tony leaned back in his chair again. His handsome features and well-built body that was enshrouded by smoke made her unable to move her gaze away.
“What do you mean?” she mumbled.
“I’m sure you must have suspected that Miss Stark and I have a relationship that we keep secret,” Tony said flatly.
Sasha’s expression immediately changed. It is true that Myra gets special treatment from the Hart Group every time. Just like this time, everyone is so sure that she has plagiarized another person’s work, yet Director Hart still helped her to clear her name!
Sasha’s breathing froze as she tried to calm herself down. Everything is not confirmed yet, so don’t think too much into it. It’s also possible that the thick-skinned Myra wants to seduce Director Hart!
Watching the changing expressions on her face, Tony curved his lips and he said in a cold voice that completely destroyed her hopes. “Miss Stark keeps rejecting me, but it so happens that I’m the one who wants her.”
It so happens that I’m the one who wants her…
Sasha froze as she looked at the man in front of her incredulously.
“Are you out of your mind? Myra is a married woman!” Sasha yelled, her voice shrill.
“So what?” Tony took another puff of the cigarette before extinguishing the flame in an ashtray nearby. When he looked at her again, only indifference was reflected in his eyes. “Let me give you another warning—don’t try to harm her. Otherwise… you wouldn’t want to see what the Hay Group will become.”
Sasha was so angry that her entire body was trembling. “Tony Hart, how dare you threaten me?”
Initially, she was thinking about having the man in front of her all to herself. Unexpectedly, even though he was rumored to be a monk who was not interested in any woman, he would rather fall for a married woman than spare her a second glance.
Every time when she recalled how he humiliated her, she hated Myra for it.
At that time, Myra was just staying next to Director Hart’s room. I bet he deliberately said those words for her to hear!
However, Sasha shivered when she saw Tony’s dark expression. After all, based on his capabilities, she knew that he could carry out his threat just now.
Well done, Myra!
“Tony, I did not expect for you to stoop so low! But I’m sorry to tell you that Myra loves my cousin a lot, so it’s impossible for her to fall for you! To her, all your efforts are worth nothing!”
“Is that so?” Tony did not become angry because of her words; it was as if he did not mind at all. This, however, made Sasha even more irate.
“Please remember to publish an official statement, Miss Hay,” he reminded her with a cold smile on his face. “And I’m sorry to tell you that there are no more working opportunities between the Hart Group and the Hay Group in the future.”
Upon hearing that, Sasha merely felt a surge of fury rising within her to the point where she felt like murdering someone. However, she tried her best to suppress it as she ran out of the room after picking up the cardigan she had taken off just now.
Two minutes later, Myra was informed by Leo that Tony had already chosen the Chase Group as the company to take charge of the Sunny Bay Project. Then, he asked Myra to make the necessary preparations before coming back to the Hart Group to sign the contract.
A warm feeling surged through her heart, something that she had not felt in a long time. However, she felt conflicted that it was brought by a person whom she did not really know.
Looking at the door of Tony’s office that was not far from her, Myra suddenly panicked for no good reason. Without even thanking him, she bade farewell to Leo and left the Hart Group directly.
Ten minutes later, Leo entered Tony’s office and reported respectfully, “Director Hart, the hotel called us just now. Sure enough, Miss Hay would like to see the footage of the surveillance camera when we stayed there a few days ago.”
Initially, he did not understand why Tony asked the manager to play that specific footage. After the events that transpired today, he finally understood what Tony had in mind after seeing him deliberately infuriate Sasha.
He’s too sly! Miss Stark has to pray for her own safety now…
Tony stood up nonchalantly and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling windows before he replied indifferently, “Alright.”
He then remembered the sensation when he held Myra’s hand yesterday.
He did not want to see her suffer, yet he did not want the distance between them to remain like this.
After Sasha walked out of the Hart Group, she called the hotel immediately and requested to see the footage of the surveillance camera outside of Myra’s room. She did not dare to let them know that she was in fact looking to see Tony’s actions, for fear that the hotel might inform him. If that happened, the Hay Family would then get themselves into a lot of trouble. Since Myra’s room was right next to Tony’s, Sasha would get the same results by asking for Myra’s footage.
Looking at the footage, her lips curled coldly when she saw Myra running out of Tony’s room with a disheveled look.
Now it all makes sense, and here I was wondering how Myra is so capable! She makes Director Hart fall for her so hard that he gives the Hay Group such a serious warning, and she even humiliates me in front of him. Because of her, we are going to be the laughing stock of the other companies in the industry. I can’t take this at all! Apart from that, I already have my eyes on Director Hart, yet she took the opportunity from me! She’s already married but she’s not loyal to her husband at all!
Even though I can’t blow this up on the surface as Director Hart will attack me, I can still tell Sean about this.
Looking at the video in front of her, a cruel look that had never been revealed to anyone flashed across her eyes.
As soon as Myra returned to the office, Tilly ran over to her. “Miss Stark, how did everything go?”
Before Myra could reply, Elsie walked up to them immediately. In reality,she was quite anxious just now, since the Hart Group did not call to give an update on whether Myra was being framed. Now that Myra had returned, Elsie heaved a sigh of relief as she laughed at her misfortune even more gleefully. “Tsk! Myra, do you still have the courage to return to Chase Group? I bet you must be back to take your belongings before you leave!”
Myra shot Tilly a look that warned her to stay calm. Then, she looked at Elsie as she tightened her hold on the phone in her bag.
Myra looked straight into Elsie’s eyes firmly and decisively, making the latter slightly furious so she shouted, “Why are you looking at me like that? It’s not like I can change the outcome!”
