Chapter 158 Orange Juice
Stephanie’s heart raced, pounding so hard it felt like it would burst out of her throat. She gripped her fingers tightly, unconsciously blurting out, “How could it be her?”
“Who is it?” Luther, desperate as if clutching at straws, immediately grabbed her wrist and asked.
“Dad, you’re hurting me.” Stephanie’s wrist bone felt like it was about to be crushed.
“Did you know something?” Luther, however, was only interested in saving the company.
Leann also anxiously urged her, “Stephie, do you know something? Tell your dad quickly, he’s almost worried to death.”
Stephanie recounted her encounter with Myrna at the hotel today, and also relayed the words that had upset Myrna.
With a heart full of uncertainty and unease, I asked, “Dad, could it be Myrna?”
“Her?”
Luther’s first reaction was disbelief.
What was Myrna, after all? Nothing but a fake heiress living in their house. Even if she found her biological father, and even if he had a respectable job, Myrna didn’t have the ability to plunge their family business into crisis with just a single sentence.
But that day, he inadvertently saw Myrna’s image reappear in his mind

at the Taylor Group.
After returning to his room, he sat restlessly on the edge of the bed, took out his phone, thought for a long time, and finally found the name ‘Myrna‘ in his phone contacts.
Pressed to go out.
After the cell phone beeped once.
A mechanical, cold female voice came from inside: “Sorry, the number you have dialed has been rejected.”
Luther’s face turned pale, only then did he remember, because of the police station incident, Myrna had already blacklisted his number!
He simply couldn’t get in!

. On the other side, after Myrna had soothed the little one to sleep, she
returned to her own room.
Just took a bath.
Came out with the hair dried.
The phone on the table lit up.
She hung the towel around her neck, walked over, picked up her phone, and lit up the screen with a downward glance.
It was Lawrence’s message.
“Girl, don’t worry about your friend’s matter, I have already spoken to the people below.”
Her dark eyes were deep and concentrated, her eyelashes slightly

curled. The light from her phone shone on her side face, flickering on and off, but it couldn’t hide her outstanding face.
“Thank you.”
Suddenly, there was a knocking sound from outside the door.
Myrna put down her phone.
Who is it, so late at night?
She looked outside and said, “Come in.”
She had just finished taking a bath, her voice was raspy, somewhat soft, and a bit lazy.
Calvin turned the doorknob and came in, holding a cup of orange juice
in his hand.
Seeing only a long T–shirt inside, the girl who had just taken a bath tightened her eyes sharply, and gripped the glass in her hand harder.
He walked in, casually closing the door behind him, his voice low and magnetic: “Alfi is already asleep. I’ve squeezed you a glass of orange juice. Would you like some?”
Orange juice again?
“… Just leave it there.” Myrna’s beautiful hand rested on her forehead, unable to understand why they all seemed to think she liked oranges.
Just because she made the little pills taste like oranges, they thought she liked eating oranges?
Calvin’s eyes were like a dark abyss, in which a cluster of ghostly fire was hidden. Even though Myrna hadn’t said anything, he seemed to see through the truth that no one else had noticed.

“I added half a spoonful of white sugar inside, it wouldn’t be too sour or too sweet.”
He placed the cup on the table and inadvertently saw her open laptop on the desk. Her computer screen was very clean, with only a few commonly used applications. To his surprise, he also found a stock trading software. Could she also play with stocks?
He was somewhat surprised.
She felt again that nothing that happened to her could be called ‘accidental‘.
Perhaps they just didn’t know her well enough.
