Some of the clips depicted Tony teaching Myra to play golf, the two of them sharing an intimate moment as they interacted. Other clips included a conversation between Tony and the old man from Bridgers Corporation, during which Tony expressed the fact that Myra had a unique place in his heart.
Other than that, there were also clips that showed Tony turning Belle down in order to show his determination to get Myra. There was also a conversation between Myra and Belle after the latter caught on to Tony’s abnormal behavior toward Myra. When Belle tried to intimidate Myra, she denied having been associated with Tony at all.
Indeed. Back then, Myra still had nothing to do with Tony, as she was still Sean’s wife. Therefore, she was still turning down Tony’s advances. What have I done to her back then? I blamed her for stealing trade secrets from Chase Group’s Hilliville project, and then hurt her because of Lyla. In the end, I even sent her to a detention center in order to sell off the Hilliville project. In effect, I was the one who gradually crushed her love. Now, all that’s left behind is her indignation for me.
“Mr. Chase…” The waiter called out to him upon noticing his awkward expression.
Sean waved his hand at the waiter. “Please leave. I would like some time alone.”
The waiter nodded before leaving. After that, Sean went through Myra and Belle’s conversation again with a bitter smile on his face. I wonder if I really still have a chance.
…
After Rachel left Kris’ ward, she headed to Stark Residence once again. Cameron wasn’t there, so the housekeeper let her in behind his back, albeit feeling uneasy about it. “Mrs. Stark, you’d better be quick when you pack up your remaining stuff. Mr. Stark will be back soon. If he finds out I let you in behind his back, I won’t be able to keep my job.”
Rachel wore a nonchalant look as she replied, “Don’t worry. I won’t make you lose your job. Throughout the years, I knew you were having a hard time, so I took extra care of you, didn’t I?”
The housekeeper forced a smile. “I will forever remember how you helped me. But now…” When she noticed Rachel went into Cameron’s study, the housekeeper was feeling even more uneasy. “Mrs. Stark, do you have something in Mr. Stark’s study?”
Apparently, she was afraid that Rachel returned to steal something when Cameron wasn’t there. She used to rely on Rachel, but now that Rachel could hardly take care of herself, she was determined to not lose her job in Stark Residence.
“Don’t worry. Just follow behind me. I’m only going to walk around for a bit. I won’t be taking anything.” At that moment, Rachel put on a look of grief. “After all, I don’t know if I’ll be able to lay eyes on the house again in the future.”
The housekeeper was moved by her expression. Throughout the years, Rachel had been nothing but nice to her. After what happened, the housekeeper knew Rachel was being implicated by her b*stard of a daughter. Otherwise, she would still be the matriarch of the house. Heaving a sigh, the housekeeper relented. “Mrs. Stark, please make it quick.”
With a nod, Rachel went to Cameron’s desk. There was a photo frame on his table; it used to have a photo of himself. Later, she replaced it with their family photo—without Myra of course. The photo was taken when Kris was young. Back then, Jenny was still Cameron’s legal spouse, so they could only sneak around whenever they wanted to meet.
