Chapter 215

Ivy’s expression soured slightly and she bit on her lower lip with force. Then, she turned to leave Leo’s office without replying to him.

Leo, who was left behind, stared in helplessness and full of heartache.

In Tony’s office, Myra was about to clean the desk after Ivy left. She was just about to reach out for the bag when a long and prominent arm wrapped itself around her waist. Tony pulled her against him. “Are you jealous?”

Tony cocked a brow at her.

“No, I’m not,” Myra retorted straight away. She struggled against his embrace, but she gave up since she realized that she couldn’t release herself from his grip. However, she refused to meet his gaze.

Tony chuckled in a rumbling tone while sounding seductive and alluring. Myra felt her earlobes burning;

she deliberately shoved against him to hide her shyness. Then, she faced him with a stern expression.

“You have many people falling for you. I would drown in my own jealousy if I were to feel jealous of everybody!” Myra was being honest when she said that.

Well, Tony is like the Devil himself. I can’t even count the number of people yearning for him! Forget about the ones I am unaware of because I know that Sasha, Gemma and even Kris are in love with him! I can’t possibly lock him up at home and not let him head out, can I? However, if I were to forbid him from leaving the house…

Myra imagined locking Tony at home and her lips twitched involuntarily whereas her eyes twinkled with a smile. Tony, who was just in front of her, locked lips with her the moment she smiled.

He held onto her waist tightly. He hugged her so closely to him that it felt almost like he was trying to merge his body with hers. The intensity of his kiss reflected his domineering and forceful nature as usual.

Myra blushed until her neck was red. She met Tony’s eyes, which seemed almost magical, while biting on her lips. Tony pressed his lips against her again when he saw that. After a long time, he chuckled quietly. “I do not have the heart to see you drown.”

Tony wasn’t the type of man to utter sweet nothings, but a simple phrase from him seemed much more effective than empty promises.

Myra grabbed the chest area of his shirt and she mumbled to him, “Tony, you are constantly attracting young and pretty women. It seems like Miss Ivy is rather capable and she seems to be quite…”

Suddenly, she was reminded of Sean and his relationship with his female assistants in the secretary room. It caused her to immediately frown. I know that Tony doesn’t have female assistants, but at that time, Sean even cheated on me with Elsie from the Design Department anyway. If…

“You better erase that imagination of yours.” Tony squinted at her and he met her gaze directly. He could not help but gripped her waist with more strength.

Myra hissed in pain, but she felt angry with herself for speculating nonsense. If he truly wanted that, he wouldn’t have been single for many years while staying pure all this time.

She noticed Tony’s pursed lips and she could easily guess that he was slightly angry with her. Myra immediately moved forward to kiss his thin lips, as if to sooth him. “I am not overthinking. I trust you, but that woman just now…”

“She is a distant relative from Old Madam Hart’s side. Old Madam Hart dotes on her,” he explained lightly.

No wonder she kept using Lisa’s name as an excuse earlier.

Myra was stumped for a moment, but Tony cocked a brow at her. “Old Madam Hart gave you a bangle, didn’t she?” It was apparent that he had to leave the Hart Residence early that day, but he knew what had happened.

Myra smiled automatically when she recalled Old Madam Hart handing her the bangle while advising her to live happily with Tony. She felt much better and moved forward to kiss the corner of his lips. “This means that you have no way back, Tony Hart, because it’s too late for you to return the goods now even if you want to.”

Tony saw her sparkling eyes and he couldn’t help but laugh with her.

He lifted her left hand to look at the diamond ring, which was shining brightly, on her finger. He kissed the ring before announcing, “Well, I admit defeat since I fell in love with a woman who can’t wait to trap me with a diamond ring.”

Myra blushed straight away before she viciously glared at him.

Well, it is his fault since he was angry the last time and he made me think of this idea. Previously, Elliot and the gang even teased me on Messenger. Nevertheless, regarding Ivy, I am not overthinking the matter.

She informed Tony that she was returning to the Stark Residence tonight, so he did not have to pick her up. Then, she left Hart Group.

Due to the delay, Myra had planned to buy some cake and milk in a cake shop as a simple lunch.

However, after arriving at the cake shop, she heard a familiar voice when she was choosing cakes—

“Elsie, you must not abort the child! You are finally pregnant with Sean’s son and he is my grandson.

We will be heartbroken if you abort the child!” Eve’s voice was as warm and gentle as usual, but it barely caused a stir in Myra’s heart.

Child… Elsie…

Myra turned slightly to the side and she glanced at two women standing in a corner. One of them was crying whereas the other was advising her. Myra squinted in surprise when she saw them.

It was Elsie and Eve; out of the two of them, one was sobbing quietly whereas the other was trying her best to advise the other. Eve is begging Else not to abort the child…

Myra shifted her focus on Elsie’s belly.

Similar to the last time when she saw Elsie in the grocery store, Elsie’s belly was slightly showing and it was obvious that she was pregnant.

Well, judging from Eve’s advice, I suppose Elsie is pregnant with Sean’s child. And it’s a son! It is no wonder Eve is advising her against the abortion.

“But, Mrs. Chase, Sean is married to Miss Fisher now. Do you want me to give birth to the child for him to call another woman his mother?! I can’t do that… Besides, Miss Fisher is pregnant too. What should I do if she is unfair to my child and tortures him in the future? I would rather end my child’s life when he’s still in my womb because I don’t want him to suffer in life…” Elsie had cried so much that her makeup was in a mess.

Eve looked like she was caught in a difficult situation.

Lyla is pregnant with my son’s child now. I can’t believe that I am getting two grandchildren after yearning for one for such a long time. How could I possibly let Elsie abort the child? Besides, Elsie is pregnant with a son! Yesterday, she gave me the picture and that is why I’m here looking for her today.

“Sean will not let you and your child suffer; you have to trust me.” Eve could only reassure Elsie verbally. She did not dare to promise her things, such as a divorce between her son and Lyla.

Myra observed the scene while harboring a sense of irony. In the past, Eve used to promise me verbally too. She claims that she would never allow Sean to gallivant with other women and she tried to convince me by saying that she would make him return to me. The funny thing is that I trusted her, which was why I just couldn’t leave the Chase Family.

Myra did not want to continue listening to their conversation, so she ordered a cake. She requested the server to pack it for her; after paying the bill, she left the cake shop with her order.

However, while Myra was ordering her cake, Eve had heard her speaking and saw her back view. Eve panicked immediately when she saw Myra leaving after paying the bill. After telling Elsie to wait for her, Eve ran after Myra.
