Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 97

The worker hadn’t met Eve in the past and didn’t know who she was. After jumping in response to Eve’s loud shouts, the worker simply flashed Eve an awkward smile before he turned around and left. Eve hurriedly gave Myra a phone call, but Myra didn’t pick her phone up. It really seems as though they might be getting a divorce! Eve’s face fell pale as she walked over to the pantry before making an international call to speak to her own son.

“What is going on, Sean? Didn’t I tell you to coax Myra into coming back? What have you done to her? She’s even resigning from Chase Group now!” Eve’s voice was filled with worry, but Sean’s response was calm and flat. “Myra and I have decided to get a divorce, Mom.”

“What?! Are you crazy?!” Eve was completely shocked. “A divorce?! Are you crazy, Sean? How dare you get a divorce from Myra! Y-You’re mad! Hurry up and get back home now!” she cried.

“I’m in New York, Mom. I can’t leave for now. Anyway, I’m taking this divorce very seriously; I’ve been thinking about it for a while now. I know you like Myra, but I don’t like her, Mom. I hope you can understand my decision this time.” He ended the call right after that. Eve felt like she was about to lose her mind as she continued to hold onto her phone despite the beeping sound that came from the disconnected call. I shouldn’t have left if I knew that this would happen. I wasn’t giving them the space to reconcile their feelings; I only gave them space to destroy their relationship! I feel like Leo should be partially blamed for this. Why did I believe his words when he’s nothing more than an outsider?!

“They can’t get a divorce! They simply can’t!” Eve hissed to herself before she walked toward the elevator. Soon, the elevator arrived at her level. She got in and went downstairs immediately. Lyla then stepped out from another small room, her face pale and disheartened. I know that Eve really likes Myra. However, what should I do if Eve steps forward and stops Sean and Myra from getting a divorce? Lyla headed down the stairs with a grim look on her face—she didn’t even bother taking the elevator. When she finally arrived on the first floor, she heard loud shouts and arguments coming from the front desk. As she frowned, she turned to see a pretty yet rather pallid woman wrestling with the lady who worked at the front desk. “Let go of me! I want to see my cousin! Why are you stopping me? Sean’s my cousin—that’s your Director Chase! If you continue to stop me here, I’m going to tell him about it and get him to fire you!”

Upon hearing this, Lyla raised her sleek eyebrows. The woman before her eyes wasn’t a stranger to her either; Sasha was Sean’s cousin, and she was a woman who had once looked down upon Lyla. They never really got along with one another. Right then, Lyla simply let out a slight chuckle as she walked over and got the front desk worker to let go of Sasha. “It’s been a while, Sasha,” Lyla then uttered with a smile.

“It’s you…” Sasha knitted her brows the moment she saw the person who had just walked toward her. Sasha knew about Lyla’s return, and she knew about Lyla’s involvement with her cousin. Although Sasha didn’t necessarily like Lyla as a person, she hated Myra more than anyone else! Ever since the plagiarism incident and the moment she knew about Tony’s feelings toward Myra, she had desperately longed to crush Myra into pieces.

Previously, Sasha told a few company directors that Myra had shamelessly flirted with Tony; that was how Sasha ended up ruining the Hay Group’s reputation. Sasha had been careful as she was afraid to make this too much of a big deal; she merely told a few companies that the Hay Group had better connections with. Tony somehow managed to find out about this, and he canceled all partnerships and collaborations that the Hart Group had with the Hay Group. After he forfeited his contracts, a few other companies that had been working well with Hay Group followed suit. Now that the Hay Group’s stock prices were plummeting, Sasha had no other choice but to approach her cousin brother for help. However, she didn’t expect that Sean would avoid her for so long!

“Miss Fisher, please help me to tell Sean that I’m really begging him for a favor. He’s the only one who can help the Hay Group right now. He’s my grandfather’s grandson too; he can’t just watch as the Hay Group falls apart!” Right then, Sasha no longer seemed to care about her grudges with Lyla.
