Will Myra still melt into my embrace if she learns all about this?
Elliot waited for a long time; just when he thought that Tony wouldn’t say another word, the latter spoke flatly. “Spread the word.”
“Okay!” Elliot immediately responded. He and the other two had been rubbing their hands in anticipation and could hardly wait to go all out!
The cell phone in Tony’s pocket vibrated again. This time, however, Tony didn’t hang up the phone.
Meanwhile, Myra took a taxi home.
She would be lying if she said she wasn’t upset, for this was the first time the man had turned down her request so bluntly. Before she realized it, she had grown used to turning to Tony for help—doing so had become a matter of course. However, such a thought made Myra’s heart shudder. Only then did she realize what made her upset wasn’t that she was hurt by both Sean and Lyla, but that Tony had refused to help her!
Such a realization caused her heart to race inexplicably. An unknown feeling lingered in her heart, but she forcibly repressed such emotions.
Suddenly, her cell phone vibrated for a moment. She took it out to see a pop-up notification saying that Elliot had added her into a chat group on Messenger.
Not caring too much about it, she opened the group’s information without much thought, only to find that this group’s members included several influential members of the upper-class families in Bradfort City and some other people who were closely related to these families. When she switched back to the group chat’s interface, she found that a few messages had popped up in there.
Elliot wrote, ‘Let’s welcome Mimi to our group! Everyone, please give her a round of warm applause!’
This message was tagged with a series of emojis. Following this message, Philip, Lucas, and the others also expressed their welcome to her.
Knowing that the members of this chat group were probably Tony’s friends, Myra thought for a moment before replying politely, ‘Thank you, everyone.’
She had just sent out this text message when another message popped up in the group chat. Surprisingly, it was a voice message from Tony.
Everyone seemed to be stunned, for Tony never spoke in the group despite being added to the group by Elliot a long time ago. Right now, he had suddenly surfaced in the group…
Elliot wrote, ‘Hey, Tony! It seems like you’ve really put love before friendship! You never showed up a few days ago no matter how we called for you in the group, but you immediately sent a voice message right after Myra popped up and sent a text message! Let’s see what you’ve sent!’
Everyone in the group probably went to listen to Tony’s voice message; even Myra held her breath as she played the voice message. However, the message, which was only three seconds long, consisted only of the sound of a car driving on the road, and Tony didn’t say a word at all. Just when Myra was a bit disappointed, he suddenly sent a text message containing a word and a question mark. It read, ‘Mimi?’
Everyone fell silent for a while before Philip quickly texted, ‘You’re finished, Elliot.’
Lucas texted, ‘You idiot!’
Philip then texted, ‘You fool!’
Michael Moss, another member of the group, texted, ‘We’re about to watch something interesting now!’
