Upon hearing Myra’s words, Tilly immediately shook her head. “Miss Stark, it has nothing to do with you. It’s all because of that perverted Mr. Hughes. How could we have known that he would do such a thing to us?”
At this point, Tilly’s eyes were filled with mixed emotions.
Myra knew the real mastermind behind all this, but she did not want Tilly to be involved in it any longer, so she comforted her instead.
When Tilly turned and left the office, Myra suddenly noticed a few tiny red marks on the back of her neck. She was no longer the girl that was oblivious to the intimacy between men and women, so she knew that the red marks…
Immediately, she was startled as Tilly had disappeared from her office door.
Today, Kris was forced by Cameron and Rachel to come to work in the office; otherwise, judging from her arrogance and pride, she would never turn up at work with a swollen face.
The two slaps that Cameron gave her last night carried its weight. Even though Kris had already applied some medicine on her face, the effects weren’t that significant, which made her even more frustrated.
After she scolded a staff member from the Finance Department, she irritably rose to her full height and walked toward the coffee room with her cup, refusing to let her assistant get the coffee for her.
After what happened last night, she undoubtedly lost the game, but she also realized a crucial point, which was Tony’s love for Myra. Even though they aren’t at the point of dying together, their relationship is still much closer than I can imagine, especially when Tony threatened Dad to hand 5% of the company’s shares to her.
With that in mind, it was enough to make Kris jealous and panic.
However, although Rachel had a plan to deal with Myra, it still needed Kris to apologize to Myra for it to succeed.
Apologize to Myra…
Thinking about it, she couldn’t help but return the two slaps received last night on Myra’s face.
As soon as she glanced at the woman leaning on the door frame of the coffee room, her face immediately darkened. Since she was currently wearing a mask and a pair of sunglasses, no one could notice the change in her expression.
“You’re here?” While leaning on the door frame, Myra, whom Kris had a huge hatred for, remained calm and greeted her, as if nothing happened last night.
With a cold face, Kris wanted to leave a few sarcastic remarks, but then, she realized that she couldn’t say anything today. Therefore, the feeling of resisting her anger made her mood even worse.
Then, her eyes landed on the cup of coffee in Myra’s hand, which still had steam rising from it. It meant that she just poured it not long ago.
“Go away.” Kris’ voice was filled with anger.
“Kris, have you forgotten that I’m your sis? How could you be so rude to me?” Myra giggled, but there wasn’t any warmth in her eyes.
Kris sneered, “Sis? I thought you didn’t want to admit that you are my sister. Myra, stop acting so hypocritical. It makes me want to vomit!”
“Yes, I also feel that I was quite hypocritical earlier.” Myra nodded and smiled instead. After meeting Kris’ furious eyes under the sunglasses, she uttered. “That’s why we should say what we should say and do what we should do.”
With that, she thrusted her hand with the coffee cup forward while remaining emotionless, pouring the cup of burning hot coffee at Kris.
“Ahhh!” A sharp painful scream was heard as Kris removed her sunglasses and mask hurriedly without any hesitation.
