Chapter 39
“Mr. Hart, what do you mean by those words?”
Sasha could no longer maintain the smile on her face. No matter how good she was at concealing her
emotions, she could still hear the huge disdain from Tony’s words.
“It’s nothing. I’m just like you—I have never taken the bus either,” Tony answered faintly with a sense of
coldness in his eyes.
At that moment, she tightly clenched her fists on each side because she planned to make Tony her
man tonight. Since all men are visual creatures, I thought that I had it in the bag, but instead, it
backfired on me and caused me to be humiliated!
Looking at the man in front of her, she was displeased. I had planned for tonight’s matter for a long
time, but if I still insist on staying here…
“Mr. Hart…” Her long eyelashes slightly drooped as it cast an aggrieved shadow over her face. “Mr.
Hart, it seems like you’ve misunderstood me. I haven’t done anything with other men—”
“That’s none of my business.” Tony interrupted before he lowered his head to glance at his watch. “I
called room service 5 minutes ago and it’ll probably be here soon. Miss Hay, if you insist on staying
here, suit yourself.”
His voice was calm and indifferent, causing Sasha’s face to flush immediately. In the end, she could
only stomp her foot and quickly leave with the tray in her hand.
After seeing her leave, Tony was not in a hurry to return to his room and shut the door. Instead, he
loitered outside and lit up a cigarette.
The hallway returned to silence within seconds.
Meanwhile, Myra felt happy for the weirdest reason after quietly watching the entire scene behind her
door.
As expected, Sasha is here to seduce Tony. She was initially worried because it would be detrimental
to the Stark Group if Sasha managed to seduce him. Surprisingly, he not only rejected her, but even
ruthlessly crushed all her hopes of marrying him. In that case, the two companies will be able to fairly
compete with each other.
Looking outside the door, Tony was already done with his cigarette, but she could see that his posture
as he smoked a cigarette was sexy with his throat rolling upward and downward. Amidst the smoke, his
distinctive face looked even more dashing and three-dimensional.
Myra felt a thump in her heart and noticed that her breathing had stopped for a second. Her clothes
accidentally touched the shoe rack at the entrance, causing a sandal to fall off with a whap.
Immediately, she could feel the man’s casual gaze outside the door. After her quick shock, she closed
the door in a hurry and leaned against it while she breathed heavily. Then, she glared at the sandal on
the floor with frustration.
It was quiet in the hallway earlier, which means that he definitely heard me. I can only hope that he
doesn’t realize that I’ve been eavesdropping on him.
As she thought about it again, she could not help but feel angry at herself. Why did I decide to do such
a dishonest thing?!
However… As soon as she remembered how embarrassed Sasha looked when she ran off, her mood
improved inexplicably.
In the meantime, the man, who was still smoking outside, simply flicked the head of the cigarette before
he slowly revealed a charming smile with his dashing lips.
The next day, Myra woke up early in the morning. After washing herself and packing her stuff, she
decided to head downstairs to the restaurant to have her breakfast.
The moment she opened her door, she immediately halted her steps.
As her head was down, the first thing that she saw outside the door was a pair of handmade suede
shoes belonging to a man.
When Myra looked upward, Tony’s dashing yet cold face immediately came into her view. With a
cigarette stuck between his index and middle finger, he leaned against the wall next to her room. His
smoking posture was as elegant and sexy as ever, but this time, his usual restrained manner was gone
and it was displaced by a frivolous attitude.
When she lifted her head, he happened to blow a mouthful of smoke on her face, causing her to cough
and her face to darken. “Mr. Hart, why are you here?”
“Someone misses you.” Tony straightened his body and stood a head taller than Myra. As he
condescendingly looked at her from above, there seemed to be a hint of casualness to his expression.
However, it caused her to be on pins and needles as she smiled awkwardly. “Is that so?” I don’t know
what he is trying to do, but since that night, I have become more aware of how dangerous he is. Should
I go downstairs or head back to my room?
Just as she thought about how to quietly leave, the man had squinted his eyes, as if he was unhappy
about something. “You don’t believe me?”
Immediately, Myra choked while the awkwardness and embarrassment quickly caused her face to
flush. As countless words started to pile up in her chest, she did not know what or how to answer him.
Seeing that her face was turning red and the rage piling up inside her, Tony felt a sense of joy as he
flatly called out, “Meow…”
Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! The voice of the big white dog approached them from afar. Soon, the furry
dog came to the front of Tony while wagging its tail and shaking its head to please him.
Tony patted its head and pointed at Myra. “Don’t you miss her? Quickly go to her.”
The big white dog seemed to understand what he said as it immediately pounced toward her.
It had a huge and chubby body, so it almost pushed her to the floor. Luckily, she managed to grab the
door frame in time to support herself while she hugged the big white dog in front of her.
While looking at Meow, who was licking her, she took another glance at Tony, who had already left.
With her eyes lowered, her eyes were suddenly filled with many mixed emotions. Could it be that the
person whom he said misses me is actually the dog?
When it was time to return, everyone took the same car that brought them to the hotel.
Unsurprisingly, the moment Myra opened the car door, she immediately saw a big white dog blankly
looking at her inside the car. As soon as it saw her, it whimpered twice in excitement before obediently
sitting down.
Myra felt resigned while the driver turned and tried to say something to her, but she had already lifted
her hand to stop him. “I know—Mr. Hart doesn’t know how to take care of his dog, so he wants me to
help out along the way.”
The driver awkwardly rubbed his nose. “That’s what Mr. Hart told me.”
She revealed a faint smile, but she did not have the same excitement to play with the dog as she did
when she arrived at the hotel. Therefore, she only hugged the dog while looking at the streets outside
the window.
Seeing that she was speechless and did not have the same enthusiasm to play with the dog as before,
the driver was a little worried, but he still secretly called Tony and left the call on.
In less than two minutes, Myra suddenly asked from behind him, “My phone is out of power and I would
like to make a call. Can I borrow your phone for a while?”
Even though she was asking for his permission, she had already come forward to take the phone next
to the driver before he even had the chance to react.
“Oh. Miss Stark, about that—”
“Eh, looks like you’re on the phone with Mr. Hart.” She pretended to be surprised as she interrupted
him. Without looking at him, she feigned an innocent voice while speaking to the phone. “Mr. Hart, is
there anything else you want to tell the driver?”
On the other side of the phone, Tony could already sense that something was wrong when he heard
Myra’s voice. His body trembled slightly for a moment before he stoically hung up on the phone right
away.
For the rest of the journey, Leo could see his boss smiling and furrowing his brows from time to time. It
immediately caused Leo to be more vigilant while driving the car.
When Myra realized that the call had ended, she was filled with even more mixed emotions.
“Miss Stark…” The driver looked at her carefully through the rearview mirror. “Do you… still need to
make that call?”
She pushed her hair behind her ear before calmly handing the phone back to him. “Nope.”
“I see.” The driver quickly reached out to grab the phone. This time, he immediately kept the phone in
his pocket, but his back was already soaked in sweat.
Since they had departed from the Hart Group last time, everyone was naturally sent back there.
While they exited the car, Leo saw that Tony was in a good mood. It’s probably because of Miss Stark. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
After rolling his eyes, Leo waited for everyone to alight from their cars before announcing, “Thank you,
everyone, for your hard work for the last few days. This afternoon, the Hart Group would like to be the
host and invite the three ladies from the Hay and Chase Groups to have lunch in the Ritz Carlton.”
