Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 407

She was wearing a plain T-shirt that hung loosely on her body. A casual attire on a supermodel’s figure and a pretty face no doubt attracted everyone’s attention.

Even the simplest outfit on her would give off a sense of uniqueness. While others were wearing beautiful clothes to make themselves look better, she was born with a perfect body that looked good no matter what she wore.

With this first impression of her, Tony politely gazed at Heather, whose eyes swept over him. When they made eye contact, she seemed to be sizing him up.

Immediately, Myra introduced Tony to her. “Heather, this is my fiancé, Tony Hart.” With two of the most important people standing by her side, Myra felt incredibly happy.

“Hello.” Heather took the initiative to greet Tony with an intriguing look in her eyes.

Without delay, Tony responded politely, “Nice to meet you.” They were extremely formal with each other.

On the other hand, Myra could sense that something wasn’t right between the two. When one strong person met another, it was natural for them to be competitive. Meanwhile, she stood on the side lines, not understanding the situation.

Heather extended her hand, wanting to shake hands with Tony. They were behaving in a way that confused Myra. Do they have to be so formal?

“I’ve heard so much about you, and you really are as impressive as Myra said you were. I think she’s found the one,” Heather said, but the look in her eyes contradicted her statement.

As Tony courteously shook her hand, he said, “I’m blessed to be with Myra. I will definitely take care of her with all my heart.” His reply was even more formal. Myra wondered what was going on.

“Are you guys done? Heather, are you hungry? There’s a French restaurant next to the airport that I think you’d like,” Myra said attentively. She was holding Heather’s arm intimately as they walked.

Seeing this gesture of hers, Tony was a little disappointed. Myra and Heather’s bond was truly strong, and he ended up being neglected. In fact, he had never seen Myra behave in such a girly way.

From what she told him, Tony couldn’t imagine what they had gone through together back then. After years of not seeing each other, their friendship hadn’t changed a bit, so it seemed like they must have gone through some profound things.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the French restaurant that Myra suggested. Like a gentleman, Tony pulled out the chair for Myra. Meanwhile, Heather silently observed his every movement.

When Tony was about to pull out the seat for Heather, she pulled it out herself and smiled at him. “It’s fine. You don’t have to be so polite.” It was obvious that he was trying to impress her.

Tony then retracted his hand and walked toward his seat. The atmosphere was inexplicably delicate. Sneaking a peek at Heather, Myra wondered if she didn’t like Tony.

On the surface, Heather and Tony were polite to each other. It was almost like a situation where business partners bumped into each other at a shopping mall. It didn’t seem like meeting a friend at all.

Then, Myra handed the menu to Heather first. “Order whatever you want. Look at you, you look like you’ve lost weight,” she said with concern, just like how a family member would.

“And you’ve gained a lot of weight,” Heather said with a faint smile. In fact, it seemed like Myra was very happy.

“Don’t even mention it. It’s all his fault.” Myra glanced at Tony with discontent. She really did gain some weight, and she was worried that she didn’t look good anymore.

Tony smiled sweetly and didn’t take her pouts and complaints to heart at all. Flirtatiously, he responded, “Alright, alright. It’s my fault for taking so good care of you.” He was completely unaware that this was a public display of affection in the eyes of Heather.

Just then, Heather took over. “You look better like this.” She certainly understood what Myra’s concerns were, since every woman was concerned about their appearance—they often thought that they wouldn’t look good with a little more weight.

“No way.” Although she said so, she still felt pleased. Which woman didn’t like to be praised?

“Trust me, I never lie to you. You look more charming with a little more flesh on your face,” Heather said while she tilted her head to the side, looking surprisingly cute.

Heather had made a good impression on Tony. In his opinion, she was a strong and generous woman. Though a woman like this certainly wouldn’t be a simple character, it was beneficial for Myra to have a friend like Heather.

He was a businessman and it was only natural that he would weigh the situation. No matter which way he looked at it, he didn’t dislike Heather at all.

There were too many women who were infatuated with Tony’s aura and good-looking face, but when Heather saw him, there was only serious consideration in her gaze and no trace of flirtation, which was detested by him.

“Tony, are you from Hart Group?” Heather looked straight at him. Myra didn’t tell her this, mainly because Heather and the Hart Group somehow weren’t on good terms.

As a matter of fact, this was what Myra was concerned about. She thought perhaps she had made a mistake this time. When she told Heather that her fiancé was Tony Hart, she had probably already figured it out since she was awfully intelligent.

“Yes. Didn’t Myra tell you?” He looked at Myra in confusion, while Heather also looked at her.
