Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 592

Regardless of what Heather said now, Myra wouldn’t listen to any of it. Heather couldn’t think of a better countermeasure. She had imagined this sort of situation happening before, but she never thought through how to face it.

“I don’t want to see you.” Looking at Heather’s indifferent expression, Myra couldn’t see the slightest bit of sincerity. It didn’t look like she was remorseful at all.

Myra regretted having met Heather. No matter what Heather did now, it would all be misinterpreted in her eyes. Their friendship had ultimately been jeopardized.

All along, Heather never liked to give explanations, but she already did her best to explain things to Myra. It didn’t look like Myra wanted an explanation from her at this point. Nonetheless, what could she do? She was completely at fault.

She maintained eye contact with Myra for quite some time. It was the first time Myra looked this tough in front of her. Her mouth opened slightly; the words had reached her mouth, but she couldn’t speak them out loud.

While they were locked in a stalemate, Myra was the first to turn around. When she called Heather over this time, she held onto a thread of hope and probably didn’t think things would turn out this way.

It was Heather’s fault for abusing her trust. This came as such a heavy blow to Myra that she couldn’t bring herself to look at Heather in the face. She always thought that Heather was only a conniving person to outsiders, but it turned out that she herself had gotten caught up in her schemes. Heather’s selfishness could make one’s blood boil.

“I can still—”

Heather’s words got cut off right away. Standing with her back straight, Myra was cold and distant. “What else are you using me for?” Myra didn’t even want to look at Heather while she spoke without a trace of warmth in her voice.

Heather wasn’t able to proudly claim that she had never taken advantage of Myra before. A while ago, she planned to mend the relationship between the Langston and Hart Families through Myra. If that counted as taking advantage of someone, then Heather had used Myra many, many times.

“You really took full advantage of me. It looks like I’m quite valuable to you, seeing as you stayed friends with me for so many years.” Myra’s words were filled with ridicule. Even though she was sad, she had to say a few things to hurt Heather. She really couldn’t help herself.

Now that they had come to this point, Heather was forced to reflect on herself. She was starting to hate herself more for ending up as a cold-blooded ace business person who was blinded by greed.

If she had even the slightest bit of repentance back then, perhaps they wouldn’t have come to this. Myra’s right. I am selfish, yet I can’t admit it, and I’m even defending myself with excuses. I have to face my dark side head-on. After all, things that had already happened can’t be treated as though they never had.

“I admit that I was selfish, and I understand if you don’t want to forgive me. I just hope you’ll give me another chance to make up for my wrongdoings.” Heather gave an earnest plea. Apart from making up for her mistakes now, there wasn’t a better way.

“No need. Haven’t you done enough of that all these years? Thinking about it now, every time you did something that made you feel sorry for me, you would always treat me a lot better. I felt grateful each time and always thought about giving back to you twice as much. I didn’t think there was a better friend than you in this world. But I only just realized that you never treated me as one.” Myra couldn’t accept this contrast. Before Tony showed up in her life, the person she depended on and trusted the most was Heather.

Their friendship felt like a joke now. Even at this moment, Myra couldn’t bring herself to say anything mean to Heather. The words were just stuck in her throat, unable to be said out loud.

Heather lowered her head dejectedly. There is no point in trying to explain further. This time, Myra isn’t going to forgive me so easily. From the outside, her silhouette looked very desolate.

“Leave, and don’t come back again.” Myra spoke lightly, but the weight of these words made Heather’s heart sink.

After Myra was done, she left the living room. They didn’t even have a cup of tea to drink. Myra was absolutely resolute this time. Once Myra was gone, Heather left the house by herself; it felt like the strength had drained from her body, and she had to use all her energy to open the door.

At this moment, she wasn’t expecting to see Matthias outside the house. He had found information on Leon and driven to Myra’s house to wait for Heather.

Coming out of the villa, Heather saw his car parked in clear view outside, but she simply walked past his car in low spirits, as though she hadn’t seen a thing.

Getting out of the car, he grabbed Heather and said, “Get in my car.” He still felt uneasy about showing up in front of Myra’s house so hastily.

Heather allowed herself to be pulled into the car. Once she was in the passenger seat, she didn’t fasten her seatbelt, which triggered the car safety alarm that started to annoy Matthias.

After driving a distance away from the villa, he stopped the car and helped fasten her seatbelt for her. He was saddened to see the bleak look in her eyes, but he didn’t know what had happened to her.

“What’s wrong?” His gentle voice also failed to bring Heather back to her senses. It looked like she had lost her soul and was a mere wandering spirit.

“Get me out of Bradfort City.” She didn’t want to stay here anymore. Her emotions were a wreck.

“Where do you want to go?” He was rather taken aback. Why does she want to leave Bradfort City all of a sudden? Something isn’t right about her. Did she and Myra get into a fight?

Thinking about how the both of them used to be so close to each other that they were practically one person, he wondered what conflict they could’ve had that made Heather look this dejected. It pained him just to see her that way.
