He was the Hart Family’s elder. Myra didn’t know how he would think of her in the future!
Estelle pouted. “How would I know that he would come and happen to see that box… But, since Tony also saw it, how was it? Was he particularly excited that night?”
Speaking of Tony, Estelle started gossiping again. “How was he? You’re so tiny. Could you stand him?” After she said that, she sized Myra up and pinched her cheek. “Look at your complexion. You look so good. Indeed, you’ve been pampered.” She gave her a meaningful grin. “Myra, that box of things…”
“Estelle!”
Myra was flushed from head to toe, and her face was burning with embarrassment. “If you bring this up again, I’ll kick you out!”
“Aww. You want to kick me out? Is it because you’re afraid that I’ll find a pair of men’s black boxer briefs in the drawer where you keep your underwear?” Estelle swayed around Myra, grinning like a Cheshire cat.
Immediately, Myra’s face turned even redder. Indeed, that was Tony’s underwear. After the underwear dried that day, she kept it in her drawer.
“You went through my drawer!” She was defeated by the truth.
“I just opened it slightly, but the black color was so eye-catching that I accidentally saw it,” teased Estelle. This time, she had rendered Myra speechless. “Honestly, did you guys use the things in the box?” Curious, Estelle leaned toward her.
Instantly, Myra slapped her away and yelled, “No!”
When she came out of the bedroom that day, Tony said he had dealt with the box. Later, she couldn’t find it in her apartment. So, she guessed that he must have thrown it away.
“He threw it in the trash can.”
“What?” Estelle’s eyes widened in disbelief. This wasteful couple!
Looking at Estelle’s reaction, Myra had finally relieved her anger, and she rolled her eyes at her. “If you give me those weird things again, don’t come to me for three months!” Then, she took her purse, put on her shoes, and walked out of her house. “Remember to cook the rice. I’ll go down and buy some ingredients.”
After Myra walked out the door, she clutched the phone that was inside her pocket tightly. As a matter of fact, Myra knew the places men liked to visit when there were work-related social functions. Women would never be absent in functions like that. Nevertheless, she had no idea why she had faith in Tony. If he really wanted to fool around with those women, there was no need for him to stay single for so many years.
However, a voice inside her seemed to be refuting. Don’t you remember the Tony you first saw in the video interview? Didn’t he mean that he has a crush on a woman? Based on his expression, it seemed like she was a long-term crush.
Myra bit her lip at the thought. After she got into the elevator, she couldn’t help but call that number. I only called two days ago. Will he think that I don’t trust him if I call him now? Her heart was pounding, yet the call was quickly connected.
