Chapter 241
In that instant, the air around them seemed to have dropped by a few degrees, making Lyla tremble
slightly. Even though Tony’s face remained expressionless, the cold stare he gave her seemed to shoot
icicles at her, slowly freezing her. In that instant, she had an urge to turn and leave immediately, but
she suppressed her desire.
After a long moment—so long that even Myra felt uneasy and tugged on his sleeves—he finally
wrapped his hands around her and shot an indifferent look at Lyla. “Remember what I told you the
other day.”
After saying that simple sentence, he left the hall of Ritz Carlton after wrapping his arms around Myra’s
waist.
This time around, Lyla stood frozen to the ground, not daring to stop them anymore.
What did Tony say the other day?
When she first learned that Tony had gotten together with Myra, she went to ask him about the entire
situation. At that time, he told her to stay away from Myra. Apart from that, he also mentioned that there
were many unexpected situations that could happen in the future.
What did he mean by that?
A chill suddenly spread from her head to her toes. Before she could even return to her senses, Mr.
Johnson, the manager of Ritz Carlton, had already walked to her and told her sarcastically, “Miss
Fisher, you are not welcome at Ritz Carlton anymore.”
With that, he left immediately, as though the thought of staying next to her disgusted him.
Usually, Lyla would arrogantly get to the bottom of this. However, she did not have any energy today
and she had a feeling that it was just the beginning. Her life was going to worsen in the future.
With his arms wrapped around Myra, Tony walked to the parking lot. As Tilly had driven Myra’s car off,
he had to send her back to the Stark Group first.
On the way, he held Myra’s left hand with his right one, which was free. It was quite rare for them not to
utter a single word.
Thinking that the atmosphere between them was quite awkward, Myra cleared her throat. Unable to
stop herself, she asked, “What did you tell Lyla the other day? Her face turned pale immediately once
you mentioned it.”
It was actually an understatement to merely describe Lyla as turning pale. In reality, she was
immediately frozen on the spot and unable to speak at all, as if she had just suffered a great shock.
On another note, Myra was quite surprised by Lyla’s appearance today.
After all, she knew that Lyla was a woman who cared about her appearances. No matter where Lyla
was, she would always look well-dressed and glamorous. It was already rare for her to appear in front
of Myra in such a disheveled look.
Tony froze for a moment since he was focused on driving, but he quickly shot a glance at Myra. At this
point, the ruthlessness that he had when he addressed Lyla entirely disappeared. His facial features
looked much gentler as he chuckled lightly, “Myra, don’t tell me that you care for that woman.”
“How is it possible?” She snorted. Her relationship with Lyla was one of the worst since the latter had
framed her many times—whether it was in front of her or backstabbing her.
After hearing Myra’s reply, his narrow and long eyebrows arched slightly. “You still care about the fact
that she married Sean, huh?”
Each time when he used the single-syllable word at the end of his sentence, Myra’s heartbeat would
race. She quickly glanced at him and saw that even though his eyes were slightly narrowed, he did not
look fierce. After making sure that he was not jealous, she shook her head. “I don’t care who she
marries, but she has framed me several times in the past. It would be a lie to say that I don’t hate her.”
“So, are you happy that I treated her this way today?” Tony elaborated on the topic.
After thinking about it, Myra realized that it was indeed the case. No matter what he had told Lyla in the
past, it should be something that Lyla was fearful of. Otherwise, she would not look at him in such
trepidation.
After forgetting about the incident involving Lyla, Myra recalled the contract-signing session between
the Stark Group and the Parker Group. She tugged on his hands as she thanked him. “Thanks for
helping me out again today. If it weren’t for you, the group of people from the Parker Group would not
let Stark Group off easily.”
She believed that the sly foxes from the Parker Group would not leave without scooping enough
