Myra was touched upon seeing this. It was likely that Tony gave such an order because he was worried that the people from the Hart Group might make snide comments in front of her. After all, the rumors of her plagiarism had spread throughout the Hart Group as well.
When Myra reached the 48th floor, she entered Tony’s office. At this moment, Sasha was already there and Tony was sitting behind his office table, with his crossed fingers supporting his forehead. Through the windows, sunlight shone on his back and the outline of his figure glimmered slightly.
“Director Hart, Miss Stark is here.”
After hearing Leo’s voice, Tony raised his head and his eyes narrowed. Then, he leaned backward in the chair. His facial features were perfectly exquisite and well-defined, and he was also tall and well-built. He was dominant yet not ostentatious, sharp yet not ruthless, and there was a hint of laziness as he leaned backward at this moment. Tony had completely dominated Sasha’s field of sight now.
Since the last failure, she went back and thought carefully about the possible reasons. Then, she came to the conclusion that Tony did not understand her well enough. Hence, she begged her grandfather to call Old Master Hart to give him some hints about her feelings. According to her grandfather, even though Old Master Hart did not give a straightforward reply, he seemed to be pretty satisfied with her judging from his tone. She was beyond excited to hear about this, so she quickly drove over here once she received the call from Hart Group. To her, everything was going according to plan. Since she was just here to witness Myra’s trial, she did not even bring her designer over.
Sasha flashed a kind and gentle smile at Myra. “Myra, I believe that Aunt Eve has already passed my message to you. If you admit your mistake now, no one will know about this in the future.” Sasha looked at Myra earnestly to show Tony that she was kind and generous. She had always grabbed on every opportunity to showcase herself.
“Oh—is that so?” Myra’s eyes gradually became colder.
“Myra, I know you did this because you love Sean very much. You want to take this project for him so much that you gave in to the temptation. I know you did not mean to do this and I—”
“Director Hart, please let us know the results.” Myra interrupted Sasha without waiting for her to finish speaking.
Annoyance was already in Tony’s eyes but when he saw Myra’s reaction, there was a quick flash of a smile on the corner of his lips, so quick that no one saw it except Sasha. She clenched her fists tightly and bit her lips as she gently murmured, “Director Hart, please go ahead.” She looked like she was trying to stay strong after she had been wronged.
Myra smiled sarcastically and stopped looking at her. Instead, she turned her gaze to the emotionless man in front of them.
At this moment, Leo placed a laptop in front of Tony and opened a file in it. Then, Tony turned it around so that it was facing both the women. “Here are the results,” he announced in an indifferent tone as his gaze swept past Sasha coldly.
“This is the result?” Sasha was the first to voice out her confusion.
A clear picture of a woman was shown on the screen of the laptop. Her head was lowered, so her eyes could not be seen. Instead, only the shadows from her long eyelashes were visible. She had an exquisite nose and petal-like lips. Even though her hair was tied back, there were strands of it falling into her face, forming a stark contrast compared to her fair neck. This woman was none other than Myra, and she had her head lowered as she drew.
