Chapter 242

“I heard that their family is going back to Bradfort City for their future development. Even though this family cannot be compared to the Hart Family, only few other families in Bradfort City are at their level.

Your father is very disappointed in us now. On the Stark Family’s side, we can’t count on him right now.

Right now, we can only wait for you to charm the other family, so that your father regains his confidence in you. This is the only opportunity to completely change our fate. Do you understand, Kris?”

Myra stopped walking and signaled at the frontdesk to stay quiet. The few employees quickly nodded and continued with their work after sitting down.

The two people who hid behind the trees were none other than Rachel and Kris. However, Kris still felt resentful after hearing Rachel’s words. “Mom, how do you know that he doesn’t like me at all? Fine, if that’s really the case, it’s only for the moment. What about some time later? He will eventually get tired of Myra, that b*tch! When that happens, he will fall for me!”

As she reached the end of her sentence, Kris became slightly agitated.

“Be quieter! Are you planning to let everyone hear you?” Rachel quickly reminded her in a low voice.

“You’re still not giving up on him! Who do you think sent the doctor when I suffered the miscarriage last time? It’s Tony Hart! If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have landed in that situation at all. Kris, he is so ruthless to you, so why are you still thinking of him? Fine, even if you still like him, you need to have enough reason for that. Why should the Hart Family accept you just like that? Are you like Myra, who has the stocks of the Stark Group, 50% of Ritz Carlton shares, and the properties from Hilliville?”

“But Mom, Myra didn’t get those with her own capabilities!” Kris retaliated.

“Yes, you are right. Nevertheless, she has them, not you! This is the major difference between the both of you!” As Rachel spoke, she gradually became less patient. “Let me warn you, Kris, if you don’t want us to be chased away by Myra in the end, you have to listen to me carefully. Make the man fall for you and when you get everything using his powers, you can have anything you want! After that, it’s time for Tony to dump Myra and you can be with him like you always wanted!”

With that, there was a moment of silence between them.

Myra scooted closer to them with narrowed eyes.

Soon, Kris’ voice rang. “Alright, I’ll listen to you. The men from the Walton Family aren’t too bad either.

Since he loves me so much, I shall play along with him!”

“Now, this is my clever daughter…”

Upon hearing the end of their conversation, Myra quickly walked past them nonchalantly, leaving the hall to await guests. She was headed toward the elevator in front of her.

Soon, Rachel and Kris walked out of the guest area. Upon seeing Myra, who was walking in front of them, Rachel’s expression darkened as she pulled Kris back. “Be careful of Myra and avoid running into her. Kris, it’s because of your inability to tolerate that you keep losing to her.”

Kris’s face darkened. Thinking back about all the misfortunes she had suffered because of Myra to the point where she was chased out of the Stark Family by Cameron, a surge of hatred bubbled within her.

It’s all because of Myra!

“Don’t worry, Mom. I will take your advice this time. I won’t let Myra have any chance to attack us again!” With that, she gritted her teeth.

Myra walked to the elevator and pressed the button to head to higher levels. The elevator soon stopped on the first floor. After it opened, she walked into it with a frown on her face.

From Rachel and Kris’ conversation earlier, it’s clear that Kris has changed her target—she’s planning to be with another man. Walton Family… Are they referring to the Walton Family I’m thinking of?

After she entered the elevator, just as its doors were about to close, someone had pressed the button outside to enter. Looking at Myra in the elevator, Kris snorted coldly as she walked directly into the elevator and stood right in front of her.

As it was no longer early, only the both of them were in the elevator.

As the elevator door closed, the elevator rose slightly. Kris initiated the conversation coldly. “Myra, I know that you were secretly listening to our conversation just now. Only you would do such a sneaky thing. So, did you hear any secrets? Do you want me to break it down for you?”

Even though Myra’s actions earlier were discovered, she did not feel embarrassed. After all, there was nothing to be embarrassed about when she was facing both Rachel and Kris. Hence, Myra merely replied indifferently, “Nah, but does your old lover know that you have a new boyfriend now?”

Kris’ expression changed immediately as her eyes narrowed. “Don’t think that you can threaten me with such things. In my relationships, I’m always the one making decisions. If you want to, go ahead and tell him that I’m into another man!”

“Why would I tell him?” Myra merely looked at the woman in front of her coldly. It’s her business if she wants to be a b*tch. After doing so many evil deeds, she’s bound to meet her retribution one day.

Perhaps she didn’t realize this, but her little tricks have made her situation worse and made mine better every time. Of course, she would not tell Kris this.

The elevator had arrived on Kris’ floor. After she exited, Myra still remained in the elevator. This was because she had moved to a different floor after she became the general manager.

Kris had already known that Myra was posted to a different floor and she hated Myra even more for that. One day, I’ll crush her arrogance and indifference!

As soon as Tony returned to the Hart Group, Leo walked into his office immediately. “Director Hart, the front desk reported that Miss Walton has been waiting for you downstairs.”

“Reject her.” Tony took off his business suit and sat on the chair immediately. After loosening his tie, he raised his head to look at Leo. “Is Lyla here?”

“Yes, she’s been here for a while.” Leo looked slightly hesitant. When Lyla arrived, she was stopped on the ground floor of Hart Group, but she called him and informed that it was Tony who called her here.

As Leo did not have the confirmation from his boss, he asked her to wait downstairs.

With an indifferent expression on his face, Tony spoke in a cold voice, “Ask her to come here.”

Leo nodded before he walked out of the room.

On the ground floor, Gemma pulled a long face.

She had already arrived at the Hart Group. Apart from being stopped by the employees downstairs, she also did not receive the VIP treatment that she expected.

Leo had told her that Tony was not in Hart Group at that moment, but when she requested to wait for him upstairs, he apologized that no one had the authority to allow anyone to go upstairs without Tony’s approval.

She was one of her brother’s ex-girlfriends. She’s here to look for Tony too? As Lyla had not noticed her, she heard Lyla making a call to Leo, saying that Tony had asked to meet him here.

How is that possible?

“Lyla, I think you better be more careful. Why don’t you take a look at yourself? Do you think you can climb into any man’s bed as you like? Don’t offend the people whom you can’t afford to handle.

Otherwise, you won’t even know how you are killed!”

With narrowed eyes and a ruthless expression on her beautiful face, Gemma looked at the woman who was also waiting in the guest area.

Lyla knew that the siblings from the Walton Family were up to no good. Until now, she still remembered the way Gemma treated the women who tried to seduce Tony. Hence, she did not dare to express her love for him in the past. Yet, she ran into Gemma on this fateful day!
