Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 530

The three of them entered the private room one after another. Then, Myra and Heather eagerly started

chatting with each other about the interesting events that happened during Myra’s trip. As it seemed

that the two ladies were not going to place their orders any time soon, the task of ordering food fell into

Tony’s hands.

Myra and Heather sat together, while Tony sat opposite them. The two ladies were so close to each

other that it even made Tony a little green with envy.

“Heather, I reckon that the gifts will be delivered to you by tomorrow. Remember to check if you receive

it.” When Myra was in the United States, she had packed the gifts that she bought for Heather along

the way and delivered them to the Langston Residence.

“What gifts?” Heather was a little surprised as she never heard Myra mention it.

“I picked some pretty and interesting items for you during my trip.” Myra would think of her whenever

she saw something she liked, and she wished to share all the good things she had with her.

“I suppose I will be receiving a large parcel tomorrow then,” Heather replied jokingly. It was somewhat

unexpected and she was pleasantly surprised.

Since when did Myra like to give surprises? she thought. I guessed that she must have been

unconsciously influenced by Tony. Similarly, when Heather saw something that she liked, she would

think of Myra. Therefore, she had sent countless interesting trinkets to Myra when she had been

abroad in the past.

Truth was, Myra seldom bought things during their trip. It turned out that all that she had bought were

for Heather. Even Tony was not aware of this. He assumed that Myra bought those things because she

liked them, but now that he thought about it, he realized that some of them did not seem like something

she would fancy.

“Apologies for the intrusion.” After a while, the waiter served them their food.

Only then did Myra and Heather quieten. Myra darted a look at Tony, who was looking at his phone with

his head bowed. He then put down his phone, which was probably because he took notice of her gaze,

and raised his head before beaming at her.

Heather quietly observed their interaction. Sure enough, when couples stayed together, bachelors and

bachelorettes would suffer tons of damage. The little details and interactions between Myra and Tony

were so enviable that Heather, who was used to being single, couldn’t help but want to date someone

just to experience the affection as well.

It was a good dining etiquette to not speak while eating, so the three of them stopped talking and

began their meal with grace. Myra’s large appetite astonished Heather. While she soon had her fill,

Myra had eaten twice of her portion.

When Myra finished her meal, she wiped her mouth with a napkin. Under Heather and Tony’s watchful

eyes, she was too abashed to eat anymore. Although Tony was glad to see her with such a good

appetite, Heather had something else in mind.

After that, they left in a car. Myra sat in the backseat together with Heather, while Tony took the wheel.

During their journey, Heather whispered in Myra’s ear, “Myra, do you eat that much every meal?”

Myra did not expect Heather to bring this up, but she nodded, and Heather worriedly advised her, “You

should control your appetite. It would be difficult to deliver a big baby.”

In fact, this was the main reason for the mushrooming of cesarean delivery. If the baby obtained an

exceedingly large amount of nutrients and grew too big, it would make normal delivery impossible.

Myra twiddled her fingers as she thought, This is so embarrassing. If Heather finds out that my appetite

is actually larger than that, it might give her a fright.

“Okay, I will try my best to control it.” Myra had long wanted to control her ‘catastrophic’ appetite, but

Tony, the true culprit behind all this, kept coaxing her to eat more.

When Tony saw in the rear mirror that the two of them were whispering among themselves, it aroused

his curiosity and made him wonder what they were talking about.

Their voices were as soft as a mosquito’s humming, but he saw that Myra’s expression kept changing,

making him even more curious about their conversation. However, to him, it was more important to

drive carefully as they were approaching an area with a high accident rate.

“Speaking of which, you guys seemed to have traveled to many places during your honeymoon trip.

Are you exhausted?” Heather asked in concern.

Myra shook her head. She was still mentally excited; the half-a-day flight did not affect her and she was

not sleepy at all.

“Jet lag is a problem now.” They departed from Boston in the morning, but it was still daytime when

they returned to Bradfort City. They were supposed to be in bed by now, but they had just taken their

lunch earlier.

“I had jet lag for a couple of days when I returned from Italy. I couldn’t sleep well because of it.” It

reminded Heather of how she felt when she had just returned to the country.

“I’ll be tired if I don’t sleep well, and it won’t do any good to my baby,” Myra replied worriedly.

“Then, you should stay up in the afternoon and hang on until nighttime. You will surely have a good

night’s sleep by then.” That day when Heather returned, she had washed up and gone to bed upon

arriving at the Langston Residence. She had then slept till the next morning, which caused her a hard

time falling asleep the following night.

“I planned to do so.” Myra had the same thought as well.

“I will keep you company in the afternoon since I don’t have work.” Heather offered to accompany her.

Meanwhile, Tony attentively listened to their conversation. He heard that Myra agreed to Heather’s

suggestion, so it seemed like he would have to change his plan although he had something else in

mind before this.

“You are not working at Langston Group anymore?” asked Myra in surprise. Before she left the country,

Heather had worked tirelessly, but now that she had returned, the latter had unexpectedly stopped

working.

“Yes, it’s my plan to become jobless.” Heather joked casually. Robert’s words seemed to imply this as

well, and she could finally focus on building her own company.

“Congratulations on the early resignation.” Heather’s resignation was indeed earlier than she had NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

expected. She had been worried before this because she did not know when she would be able to

leave Langston Group, and now, she was finally free.

Tony, on the other hand, thought of something. He suddenly became very eager to meet someone as

soon as possible.

Thus, he went straight to the point and asked, “Heather, you mentioned the hacker, Leon, the other

day. Can I meet him?”

His sudden question interrupted Heather’s train of thought—she was contemplating where to go with

Myra later. She had casually mentioned Leon that day, so she did not expect that Tony would still

remember it. If I bring a few people to visit Leon, he will definitely welcome us with open arms.

However, the problem now is that he dislikes being addressed as a hacker and he doesn’t want anyone

to know about it. This contradicts Tony’s current focus of getting to know a hacker.

As Heather was a little hesitant, Tony continued, “I know a couple of things that you guys had no

knowledge of, so I need Leon’s help. Caleb’s appearance worries me.” It was rare for Tony to reveal his

own thoughts, but his words inexplicably made Heather feel uneasy as well.

Caleb’s appearance made not only Robert unsettled but also Tony. Inevitably, this aroused the question

of what could be the reason behind their reactions. Heather was afraid that the truth was far worse than

she could ever imagine.

“Leon doesn’t like people knowing his hidden identity as a hacker, so I’m not sure if he wants to

continue helping you,” Heather explained cautiously. The situation was giving her a headache.

If Leon were to find out that she had revealed his hidden identity to both Myra and Tony, he might blow

up on the spot.

Hearing this, Tony remained quiet for a moment before he replied, “Please convey my message to

him.” He believed that Heather was trustworthy. Since he couldn’t speak with Leon face-to-face, he

could only have her help him to convey his message to Leon.

“Leon is busy with his new company, so I’m afraid that he won’t have much time to investigate other

matters,” Heather replied tactfully. She did not want Leon to get involved with the rest of the matters

since the latter had already helped them a lot.

“I understand.” Tony was rather surprised that neither way worked. It seemed like he had to investigate

the rest of the matter on his own now.

“Leon mentioned Caleb’s intel was Leisfeld’s national classified information. So, it won’t be easy to

investigate Caleb—it’s something that even Leon can’t do.” Heather longed to uncover the truth as well,

but it seemed quite unlikely to happen based on the current circumstances.

Leon had once suggested to Heather to take action on Caleb himself. It sounded easy, yet it was, in

fact, the most impracticable method. At one glance, one could tell Caleb was a veteran with many life

experiences, hence nobody could tell which of his words were true and which were not.

“Old Master Langston should know more than us,” Tony remarked in an adamant tone.

Heather, of course, knew about this as well. However, Robert didn’t tell her much and only briefly

touched on the incident that happened years ago. What she managed to find out from him was that

Robert had a younger sister named Claris, who had lost her life due to the incident back then. The

Moriartys had lost their successor, which was probably the reason they still held grudges against the

Langston and Hart Families.

As for why the Hart Family had been involved in that incident, she was still clueless. Since Tony

suddenly brought this up, she thought that she might as well try to find out from him.

Therefore, she told Tony what Robert had told her, and he fell silent momentarily after listening to her.

The car sped along the highway aimlessly, and nobody knew when it would stop.

“Can you tell me how the Hart Family offended the Moriarty Family?” Heather questioned in

puzzlement. From the surface, the Hart Family seemed to have nothing to do with that incident.

“It was because the person your grandaunt fell in love with was my grandfather. She had always

respected my grandmother as his spouse, but at the same time, she thought that she would be his

fiancé.” Tony revealed a shocking truth.

It was rather unexpected but it instantly explained how the Hart Family offended both the Moriarty and

Langston family. It turned out that it was a family feud that arose from the relationship entanglements of

the older generation. Falling in love with someone who didn’t love you back was surely one of the

greatest fears—not only would one end up in misery, but it would also get their entire family involved.

Myra kept quiet and listened to their conversation, though she was confused. This incident was not a

simple one indeed; it was very complicated, and even Heather couldn’t make head or tail of the

benefits and conflicts behind it.

“So now, Caleb came for revenge?” Heather was worried about this the most. With the Moriarty

Family’s background, it would be difficult for the Langston and Hart Families to stop them if the former

were to seek trouble with them.

“I’m not sure. Even Grandpa isn’t clear about it, so I don’t know much. He was very hesitant to tell me

about it, and the pieces of information that I got confused me.” Similarly, Sebastian didn’t explain it

clearly to Tony, so nobody knew what the two old men were hiding from them.

“We are in the suburbs now,” Myra gently reminded them. The two of them were so engrossed in the

conversation that they didn’t realize that they had driven all the way to the eastern suburbs of the city.

When Tony focused his attention back on the road, he realized that they were really far away from the

city; it was a foolish mistake for someone as sharp as him. It seemed like the feud between the three

families was not something that could be made clear with a word or two. Hence, he and Heather

simultaneously dropped the topic.

“I will make a U-turn in front. Where do you two want to go?” Tony asked.
