Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 413

These days, Heather had been extra concerned about Stark Group, more so than Myra herself. She put aside her work on her start-up business and even went to see Myra at Stark Tower.

In the office, Myra was focused on the documents in her hands, while Heather was on the couch looking at the paperwork with a frown. In fact, her expression was more grim than Myra’s.

“Heather, why are you so concerned about Stark Group?” Myra finally couldn’t hold back. Her unusual behavior was baffling.

Clutching the paper in her hands, Heather had an intimidating look in her eyes. Not knowing what she was actually looking at, Myra was a little confused by her unstable breathing.

“What did you say?” Heather didn’t hear what she said at all.

“You’ve been acting weird lately, Heather. I don’t want you to get involved in this mess.” Myra put down the sheet in her hands and gazed at Heather with a grim expression.

Beyond the window, the wind was howling and the weather was gloomy and depressing. Because of this weather, everyone lost their motivation to work. From the tall building, the scene outside looked like the world was going through an apocalypse.

“Have you forgotten the promise I made to you back then?” Heather closed the file in her hand and casually tossed it onto the couch.

“What?” Myra didn’t understand what she meant.

“Stark Group is yours and I will not allow anyone to cause any trouble,” she said righteously. By offering help, other than wanting to obtain Stark Group and Hart Group, she also wanted to help Myra.

“I’ll handle Stark Group myself. I can’t be relying on you for everything.” Myra turned her down. Ever since she came back from Italy, Heather was always in some unexplainable mood. Until now, Myra still couldn’t figure out what was wrong.

Besides, she didn’t like Heather like this. She was becoming more and more business-minded, and the emotions in her eyes were missing. Myra didn’t want her to be a cold and emotionless business person who only had eyes for benefits. Heather’s change was making Myra feel unsettled, and she wasn’t sure that Heather was genuinely helping her by involving herself in Stark Group’s affairs.

Ever since she was a child, Heather had been crowned a genius, but Myra wasn’t a fool either. Heather’s actions were too obvious and Myra had become wary of her.

“I will fulfill my promise to you no matter what. I want you to help you take back Stark Group, and this can no longer drag on.” Heather looked like she was saying ‘I’m doing this for you’, which Myra simply couldn’t refuse at all.

Already feeling burdened by the gift incident, Myra started to have doubts as Heather was trying to get involved in Stark Group’s mess. Perhaps Heather was too eager to get things done. In any case, Myra connected the dots and couldn’t stop feeling uneasy.

“Heather, I hope you’re not getting any ideas with Stark Group.” Myra lowered her head, hiding the disappointment in her eyes. She was afraid to make eye contact with Heather.

Biting her lower lip, Heather thought about what to say. This time, she indeed did not fully prepare and ended up being too hasty, and raised Myra’s suspicions as a result.

Seeing that she did not respond for a long time. Myra wondered if she spoke too harshly and had hurt Heather’s feelings.

“So that’s what you think about me.” Heather put on a disheartened smile. She thought Myra would never hesitate to stand by her regardless of anything. It seemed like she had overestimated the strength of their bond.

“Heather, that’s not what I meant,” Myra hurriedly explained. “Stark Group is a mess right now. If you insist on getting involved, it will only end up being a disadvantage to you,” she anxiously clarified. Heather hadn’t been home for long, and she didn’t want their friendship to be affected by the company’s affairs.

“I know you worry about me, but do you remember what happened that day when you sent me off at the airport?” Heather closed her eyes and asked. The reminiscence in her voice was clear. That day, Cameron went too far, and Heather could still remember it clearly until now.

Recalling something unhappy, Myra shook her head. Back then, Heather couldn’t stand Cameron’s actions, so naturally she had an attitude toward him.

Meanwhile, Cameron couldn’t do anything to her, so he vented his anger on Myra. Even so, she refused to sever her ties with Heather.

On the day Heather was leaving the country, Cameron forbade Myra from going to the airport to send her off. Insisting on going anyway, Myra ended up receiving a severe beating from him.

When Heather saw the bruises on Myra’s skin, she was so mad that she nearly did not get on the plane and went to confront Cameron at Stark residence. If it wasn’t for Myra who persuaded her otherwise, perhaps Heather wouldn’t have gone abroad that year.

To this day, Myra remembered the last words Heather said to her before she left. “When I return from my studies, I will help you take back what’s yours.” Her vow still rang in her ears.

“Heather, it’s all in the past.” Myra’s hatred for Cameron was beyond that. The things he did later on were worse than the last.

“I take to heart all the promises I make. Since I said I would help you take back what belongs to you, then I will not go back on my word,” Heather said with determination. Her face was tense.
