Her smile became increasingly seductive. The coldness in her eyes was like an infinite abyss that sent
chills down one’s spine. Tony tried to recall in his mind, but he did not think of any grudges with
anyone.
“Director Hart, you are so suspicious.” The woman flashed a wide smile at him, but her face made him
feel intense hatred.
“Don’t touch me,” he spoke harshly. He could not wait to tear the woman into halves. If he did not have
any hesitations about the situation, he would not let her off the hook easily.
She continued to smile and showed no fear for him at all. Obviously, she called the shots here, but he
was being restricted by many concerns. On top of that, he could not contact the outside world here.
“Director Hart, calm down.” Her voice became gentler, but upon hearing that, Tony merely felt disgust.
Both of them stubbornly faced each other and none of them were willing to compromise. Tony could not
calm down at all as his head was heavy and he had lost track of time. To him, one day felt as long as a
year.
“What the hell do you want? Give Myra back to me!” he yelled. He did not wish for any other thing at
this moment, as long as Myra could safely return to him.
“Director Hart, only a day has passed, yet you already can’t hold yourself back. I’m afraid you will break
down in the coming days,” the woman reminded him kindly.
Tony angrily looked at her. Up until now, he had no idea what her name was. He merely felt that his
vision became more blurry and he was beginning to see doubles of everything.
The woman walked to him and took his wine glass away as she spoke, “Too much alcohol is not good
for you.” She played around with the glass with a lustful expression in her eyes.
“Give Myra back to me.” With that, he wanted to take the wine glass from her hands, but his
consciousness started to fade away as he became more unresponsive.
The woman’s smile became even savage. This was exactly the result she wanted—for Tony to lose his
will to live. He had probably not expected that he would become like this one day. After all, Myra was
his soft spot.
When he sank into the chair after being drunk, the woman placed a blanket on him with both love and
hatred in her eyes.
“Tony, you shouldn’t have fallen in love,” she spoke in a wistful tone. “Once you fall in love with
someone, she will be your weakness. I thought that I won’t be able to take revenge in this lifetime, but
you gave me the opportunity to do so.”
She was mumbling and didn’t notice that Tony was just pretending to be drunk.
He had no idea how to make her tell him the truth, so he played a trick by pretending to be drunk.
Fortunately, it worked. Now, he was sure that this woman had grudges with him, but he could not think
what the actual trigger was at that moment. Apart from that, he also had no clue of her true identity.
Even though he was more or less under house arrest at this moment, he could still contact the outside
world. Unfortunately, he could not keep in touch with Heather.
Tony’s instincts told him that she would be the key to turning the entire situation around. Hence, he had
been thinking about contacting her since the call last night.
He wanted to hear more from the woman, but she did not say anything else. In that instant, the room
was completely silent and empty. He could only hear his own heartbeat while she looked at him with
immense gentleness in her eyes. Perhaps we have some connections in the past that are out of the
ordinary.
Slowly, he also fell asleep. The next morning, he was surprised to find that he was able to sleep without
Myra beside him.
The bright sunlight hurt Tony’s eyes. He tried to remember his dream from the previous night where he
seemed to have dreamed of a woman with whom he had some entanglements in the past.
That dream felt like it had happened in real life. He felt slightly dazed, but he could not recall what
exactly the dream was.
He could only remember the woman in his dreams wore white clothes and she stood under a cherry
tree like an angel. When he tried to remember more about the dream, he felt as though his mind was
breaking apart.
The woman’s voice rang from behind him. “You’re finally awake, Director Hart.”
Tony looked at her woozily, but he quickly returned to his senses as his eyes became fierce with Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
animosity.
She served him breakfast with half a smirk on her face. In a gentle tone, she said, “Since you are
awake, let’s eat something.” Her nonchalance made his hatred for her grow deeper.
“Who the hell are you?” he asked through gritted teeth. The mysterious woman left him feeling quite
troubled.
“Director Hart, why do you insist on knowing who I am?” Not only did she not reply to him, she asked
him another question.
“Do you have a grudge against me?” he asked definitively, as if he was sure that was the case.
She laughed out loud with sarcasm in her eyes. “Director Hart, is this even important?”
“If you want to attack me, just target me. Why did you have to kidnap Myra?” he asked furiously. At that
moment, he hated the fact that he could not do anything. He hated his current helplessness.
The woman merely curved her lips, as though she had heard a joke. “Director Hart, since when have
you become so childish? Did your intellect and emotional quotient decrease after we caught your
beloved woman?” she asked in a jealous tone.
“Let Myra go. I can agree to any of your requests.” Tony just wanted to save Myra as soon as possible
so that she would not be in the kidnappers’ hands.
“I’m sorry, Director Hart. We haven’t thought of the demands we want. You have to wait for a few more
days,” she spoke in a carefree tone. Rather than having a grudge with him, she looked like she hated
him due to a romance gone wrong.
“Have I disappointed you before?” Tony guessed.
She shook her head. “Director Tony, before you met Myra, your romantic relationship was a piece of
blank paper. No such thing happened with me.”
“Do I know you then?” he continued to ask her tentatively. He wanted to figure out what was going on.
At the very least, he wanted to know the true identity of this woman.
“Possibly.” She did not give him a firm reply, but he had already gotten the answer he wanted.
It seemed like his guess was correct, but he simply could not remember whether he had any
entanglements with other women. Just like what the woman had said, before he met Myra, he had no
other relationships.
Even though it ruled out the possibility of Tony falling for other women, it was still possible for other
women to secretly fall for him. It was something difficult to trace because there were far too many
women who fancied him.
If they were to search through them one by one, it would be too tedious of a task. He narrowed his
eyes as he wanted to see her true face, considering that it could trigger his memory of her.
How do I see her true face? Tony tried to formulate a plan in his mind, but she reminded him, “Director
Hart, if you don’t start eating now, the breakfast will be cold.”
Thinking that it would bring no benefit if he continued to treat her as his archenemy, he listened to her
words and started to eat.
The woman also ate beside him, but he was not used to eating with people whom he was unfamiliar
with. The discomfort was even more prominent since there were only the both of them.
“Director Hart, do you mind eating with me?” The woman could tell his discomfort.
However, Tony denied it. I should try to be closer to her. I don’t have much time now since she is
controlling the entire situation. I must quickly gain control.
“Director Hart, I didn’t know that you like to lie too.” With just a glance, she could tell that he was lying
to her.
He looked at her deeply. I have an odd feeling about her. The oddest part is that I don’t even know
where I should start to turn the situation around.
“Do I have a better option?” Since it was difficult to interact harmoniously, Tony just spoke what was on
his mind.
She covered her lips as she smiled, thinking that he was quite cute. “If you don’t like me, I can eat
alone. If you don’t tell me, how would I know?” Since the atmosphere between them was quite tense,
she teased him. It was only after so long that she finally had the opportunity to be together with him and
she wished that they weren’t tense with each other.
“Just let it be.” Tony no longer bothered to care. She had been teasing him since earlier. Under normal
circumstances, he would not let her off the hook easily. However, since the situation had changed, he
could only restrain himself.
“In that case, you have to suffer a little.” The woman seemed to be delighted about this. She had
shown him raw hatred just yesterday, yet she had a completely different approach today. Her behavior
was making Tony quite confused.
“Do you hate me or…” he asked bluntly.
She replied in a tone that sounded like she was genuine yet joking, “I don’t hate you at all. I love you.”
Her confession had caused his heart to tighten since it was a rather odd feeling that he could not tell
whether she was serious about it.
Tony looked elsewhere. He was not used to being the recipient of a confession, especially by his
enemy.
“I don’t believe you have such an innocent side.” The woman continued to tease him.
He usually would not have reacted like that. He knew that she was deliberately teasing him, so he was
not exceptionally worried about it. The game has just begun. We still don’t know who the winner will be.
“I will find out who you are,” he enunciated every word clearly as he stared into her eyes.
She merely pouted. “Based on your capabilities, it’s only a matter of time before you find out who I am.
I’m not doubtful of that.”
Upon hearing her words, he put down his cutlery and said to her, “I’m full.”
When she heard him, the woman immediately rose to start tidying up the table. Even though she
looked kind and harmless, he knew very well that she had an evil, hidden intention. He also knew that
he had to be careful around her.
“I want to see Myra,” Tony demanded. It had been a day since he last saw Myra, so he wanted to check
in with her current situation.
“It’s not my decision to make.” The woman started to give excuses and sounded as if she did not want
him to see Myra’s condition.
“I will only give you ten minutes to arrange. If I can’t see her, I will leave this place,” he spoke with a
cold expression on his face. After all, he was not someone who would take orders from others.
