Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 240

“Director Hart…” At that moment, she did not look at Myra standing right next to Tony. Instead, the woman looked at him directly with a hint of plea and determination in her eyes, as though it was the final effort she could make.

Myra looked at the woman in front of her with a conflicted expression. She really is a woman of her words.

She lifted her head to look at the man next to her. He had a peaceful expression on his face, but he was quite cold to Lyla. He merely pulled Myra’s hands as he planned to walk past Lyla as if she was not there.

However, Lyla stopped them. Her eyes flickered when she saw Tony’s warning gaze, but after recalling something, she harshly bit on her lips and raised her head. Myra saw blood forming on her lips because of Lyla’s force.

Even though Lyla did not want to show Myra her weakness, she could not be bothered with that at this moment. Looking at Myra, she said in a low and hoarse voice, “Miss Stark, can you give us a private moment? I have… something to discuss with Director Hart.”

Myra’s hand subconsciously tightened around Tony. While pursing her lips, she peacefully looked at the woman in front of her. “Miss Fisher, if you have anything to discuss, you can just say it right here. It’s quite inappropriate of you to ask me to go away, isn’t it?”

Upon hearing that, Lyla’s expression changed immediately.

As soon as she knew that Myra had gotten together with Tony, she had already predicted that such a day would arrive. In the past, it was always Myra who was envious of her. So what if Myra comes from a wealthy family? She doesn’t have a mother and her father hates her. Even her favorite man, Sean Chase, fell in love with me!

However, on this day, it was Myra who calmly stood in front of Lyla with an expression of disdain and mockery on her face.

It’s all because of the man behind her! Without Tony, she’s nothing!

Turbulent emotions fought with each other within Lyla, as if someone had poked her entire body with thousands of needles. However, she knew clearly that she could not attack Myra in front of him.

Ever since she had a fight with Sean yesterday, he did not return for the entire night.

A furious Lyla went to Eve and demanded an explanation from her. Upon seeing that, Eve’s expression changed entirely and blamed Lyla for following her. However, Eve denied that the pregnant woman was Sean’s partner. Instead, she merely said that the girl was a distant niece of hers. Apart from that, Eve also warned Lyla that she would not be this polite if she followed her again.

Lyla’s relationship with Eve had taken a turn for the worse once again. She could not sleep at all last night and she called Sean, who was away for the entire night, countless times. However, he did not pick up any of her calls.

The next morning, after she woke up, she saw the latest entertainment news which showed Sean with a pretty model in front of a hotel. The picture was taken by paparazzi who followed them. Almost immediately, reports of his fling appeared on the first page of entertainment news.

Actually, the fact that he showed up in front of the hotel with another woman sent a deep message to her.

Looking at the both of them leaning against each other, Lyla felt that blood almost flowed out of her eyes.

She did not expect Sean to look for other women in less than two months after they were married.

She always thought that the reason why she could easily chase Myra away and become Mrs. Chase was because Sean loved her. When he’s with another woman, has he ever thought of me?

Lyla became increasingly disappointed and hopeless toward the Chase Family. She knew that she had the trump card before she married into the Chase Family, so Eve had to treat her well. However, now that she no longer held any value to them, her status in the Chase Family was nothing. Perhaps Myra was not as desperate as her back then. After all, she knew just how much Eve adored Myra in the past.

After having no other options, Lyla was forced to seek Tony’s help.

Up until this point, he was the only person who could help her.
