They were in a standoff. As Tony didn’t want to continue to waste his time with Heather here, he gently carried the asleep Myra into his arms. Heather quickly took a towel and covered her with it. Judging from her actions, it was obvious that she really cared for Myra, so she probably had her reasons for hiding the truth from them.
Heather seemed natural under Tony’s firm gaze. Since she was able to say aloud in front of Matthias that she shouldn’t be held fully responsible for the incident that happened years ago, there was no need for her to feel guilty toward Myra.
She watched as Tony left with Myra. Their initially wonderful trip at the hot spring resort had been ruined, and the culprit was none other than Matthias. She intended to go and look for him, but the latter beat her to it.
It had been strange for Heather to stay at the pregnant women’s zone to begin with, but Matthias’ appearance made things worse. It was fortunate that there were no other pregnant women present at that time.
“I don’t want to see you,” she stated firmly with a furious tone.
Matthias came with a bottle of red wine and two glasses on the tray. As he poured some wine into the glasses and held the tray in front of her, he remained quiet throughout the process, resembling a puppet.
However, Heather pushed the tray back to him while coldly peering at him, refusing to have a drink with him again. When Matthias disappeared back then, Myra had fallen sick for a very long time. He had hurt Myra deeply despite the fact that it was Heather’s fault.
Heather genuinely felt that Matthias would not be able to give Myra happiness. Instead, he would only wound Myra further, so she was reluctant for him to get in touch with Myra again.
“Anger harms your health.” Matthias approached her, but she immediately avoided him.
The corner of his lips curved upward into a smirk; he even extended his hand in an attempt to touch her but she avoided him.
“Are you jealous of her?” He looked into her eyes playfully. Her eyes had reddened due to anger, which was especially enchanting.
A beauty was stunning even when she was angry. Heather was still as beautiful as she had been when he first met her. Suddenly, he grabbed her arm so quickly that she did not manage to react in time. Repulsed by his touch, she glared at him with a look of disgust.
Matthias’ complexion that was as smooth as a woman’s gave her a slithery sensation. As she did not want anyone to notice her awkwardness, she warned him in a low voice, “Let go of me. Your touch disgusts me.”
“Can’t you look me in the eye?” he growled, disgruntled.
She hated how he was behaving, how he took advantage of his taller and stronger build and lifted her chin with force.
“Look at me. Take a proper look at me. I don’t know what happened earlier, but I certainly read something from Myra’s eyes.” He started to explain to Heather about his previous actions in a commanding tone, but the latter had no intention to listen to him. All she had in her mind now was to figure out a way to escape his grip.
Upon being ignored, he carried on with his explanation. “I could tell from her gaze that she recognizes me. The way she looked at me was as if she remembered our past.”
Heather’s body stiffened at his words and a chill ran down her spine. There would be a day when Myra regained her memories, but it must never happen now when she was pregnant, for fear that she couldn’t accept it.
“Don’t ever let her remember the past, and don’t ever appear before her again,” she warned him cruelly. She seemed to realize something—the more Matthias appeared in front of Myra, the more the latter remembered.
“Don’t tell me what to do. Why should I agree to your requests?” He was considering if he should strike a deal with her as he had really given up on Myra—his unusual behavior earlier was merely due to the reminiscences of the past.
“If you are truly concerned about Myra, don’t ever make her remember the unpleasant past. You know that your disappearance had given her a devastating blow.” Heather spoke the truth. Myra must never recall Matthias at this time; it would definitely trigger her.
