Chapter 309 Also Gave Her a Gift
Karter saw her stand up and said, not surprisingly, "Are you leaving?"
The phone vibrated again, Myrna didn't look this time, she lightly nodded her chin and said, "Something came up."
Karter stretched his body, placing his hands on the chair, and leaned back, looking at her. He smiled and said, "I just saw you constantly looking at your phone. Did someone from home urge you?" The people at home?
Myrna's eyes belonged to the type that was naturally beautiful, whether raised or lowered, with eyelashes like a fan, perfectly concealing the emotions in her gaze.
Karter saw her crimson lips curl up for a moment and casually replied to herself, "Hmm, yeah."
He picked up his coat and stood up, reaching for his wallet as he walked ahead. "Let's go, I'll go pay. Wait for me outside, I'll drive you."
Little did he know that as soon as he reached the counter, the cashier informed him that Myrna had already paid the bill.
Karter was somewhat surprised, knowing that this café was not cheap. He and Myrna each ordered a cup, which came to around three hundred dollars. For him, three hundred dollars was not a big deal, but for Myrna, a high school student, it should be considered a significant
amount.
After a brief moment of confusion, he took out three hundred yuan from his wallet and handed it to Myra, saying, "When did you pay for

the bill? I had no idea. Take this, I'll treat you to a drink. How could I let you pay?"
Myrna confiscated it, making him pocket the money, with a villainous look on her face, and said, "No need, Karter, you keep it, I still have some money, enough to spend."
She had enough money to treat someone to a drink of water at least!
Karter, seeing that she insisted on not accepting, reluctantly put the money back into his wallet and said with a hint of reproach in his expression, "I originally intended to treat you to a drink, but it ended up with you treating me instead."
He quickly relaxed his brows again and took out a small box from his pocket, saying with a smile, "Oh, I almost forgot about this."
He handed the small box to Myrna and said gently, "This is the gift I brought for you."
Seemingly afraid that Myrna would refuse, he added, "Take it! This gift was carefully chosen by me, and you will surely like it."
Before he came, he heard about the Stark family's situation over the phone and specifically asked someone to buy something before leaving.
He had confidence in the gift he bought for himself, believing that after Myrna saw his gift, she would have some favorable impression of the Grant family.
After all... there is no girl who wouldn't like this gift!
"Don't worry too much about the price of things, I'll give them to you to keep well. Girls should have at least two things like this."
Full of confidence, Karter forcefully handed the things to Myrna and changed the subject with a smile, "You're going home, right? I'll take

you there."
He had said before that he would give it, and this time it was even more sincere than just now.
Myrna, this child, indeed carried herself with grace and poise, much better than Stephie. If we could bring her back to Nemmington and have her serve the Grant family in the future, it would definitely be a profitable venture with no risks. Unfortunately, Myrna didn't give him a chance. She raised her phone in her hand and said quite arrogantly, "I had already called a car. There's no need to bother."Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Karter originally intended to take the opportunity of sending her off to talk to her about the matter of going to Nemmington, but upon hearing her words, he couldn't persuade her any further.

Myrna came out of the café and waited for a while by the roadside. The ride-hailing car she had called had already arrived.
She opened the door and got in the car.
The voice, which was quite hoarse, said something to the driver.
"The Taylor Group."
"Okay."
The car sped away.
On the way, Myrna raised her eyebrows and glanced at the gift box that Karter had just handed her, without opening it. Instead, she first looked at the two latest messages that Alfredo had just sent her.
