Standing before love Floral arrangements
Back then, Kris was still feeling jealous at Myra for getting a car, so she accepted Cameron’s offer without hesitation. From her point of view, someone as prestigious as her father would undoubtedly have a few mistresses. As long as those women stuck to themselves and did not affect her mother’s status within the family, she was willing to turn a blind eye to their affairs. It was also out of concern for her mother. After all, Cameron never was someone who could have a leash put on him. If she irked him by blowing things out of proportion, the status of both her mother and her within the family would be endangered.“Dad cheated on you, but he threatened me that he would chase us out of the family if I told you.” Taking a deep breath, Kris clenched her fists. “I wouldn’t be afraid if I was the only one involved, but I knew you wouldn’t be able to take such a heavy blow, so I hid the truth from you. Mom, I’m sorry…”“No, this can’t be…” Rachel could feel her blood gushing to her brain.

Leo remained silent as he mused, Director Tony wants to set up a flower shop, but doesn’t want too many clients to know the address. I guess he’s doing this just to pamper Miss Myra. Although he was already used to seeing how Tony would dote on Myra, Leo couldn’t help but exclaim mentally, since his past self would never have believed Tony was capable of such deeds toward a woman.However, Leo quickly carried out Tony’s orders, starting from finding a suitable shoplot. Myra knew nothing about it as she worked on arranging the flowers into another vase before bringing it out from the lounge, only to find that the atmosphere outside the lounge was different from when she left.In fact, the atmosphere in Tony’s office was slightly heavy. With a morose look, Tony held an almost hostile gaze in his narrow eyes. His features were stiff and serious when he tapped on the surface of the table with the index and middle finger of his left hand, which produced a series of light yet unnerving tapp

Let go of me!” With abandon, Ivy seemed resolute about whatever it was that she was going to do. “Leo, you know how I feel! Sebastian already announced that their wedding will be held next month! What should I do if that happens?”As she went on, a look of grief shrouded her features. “How could he treat me like that after I spent all those years chasing after him? Is my effort throughout the years all for naught?”Leo didn’t let go of her hand. There was a fleeting pain in his gaze when he noticed how hurt she was. Regardless, he only stated aloofly, “There never is a reason for things like this. Director Hart had always made himself clear, nor had he ever given you false hope. You know full well that he was the one who bestowed our positions in the company to us. Not anybody could just walk in and get to this position. We only had a chance because he gave us one. Have you forgotten how he helped you when you were bullied by your cousin’s family? Now that he will be getting married t
Last Updated : 2024-11-19Standing before love She was badmouthing
With an earnest gaze that indicated to Ivy his deep love and gentle desire to protect her, Leo continued to stare at her while waiting in trepidation.Hearing his sudden confession, Ivy was stunned. Although she knew early on that he fancied her, she always feigned ignorance because she didn’t want to complicate things.She was swayed by his sudden confession, but chose to immediately push him away in panic while biting her lip. “Leo, the man I like is Tony. Even though he doesn’t like me, I won’t give up before he gets married.” Her final sentence sounded rigid, either because she really refused to give up or she was trying to turn Leo down.As soon as Leo heard that, his gaze dimmed. A frown appeared as quickly as it disappeared before he smiled at her. “I’m at my wits’ end if you’re not going to change your mind even after I did that.” With that, he switched to a more serious demeanor. “Ivy, even if you’re unwilling to give up on Director Hart, you shouldn’t lay a finger on Miss St

“Will the fall of Stark Group bring any loss to Myra?” Tony arched his brow while questioning Cameron.“Of course! Have you already forgotten that she has twenty-five percent of the shares of the company? If the company goes bankrupt, she won’t be able to get anything.”Cameron gritted his teeth. In fact, it wasn’t just twenty-five percent. He was aware that there was someone else who had been buying off the company’s stocks that were on the market. Other than Tony, Cameron couldn’t imagine anybody else doing that.However, he could only feign ignorance. “Of course, I wouldn’t make you help us for free. If Stark Group manages to fare through this, I’m willing to offer you Green Palms Project’s full profit. How does that sound?”“Green Palms Project’s full profit…” There was a hint of ridicule in Tony’s voice while he sandwiched his phone between his shoulder and his cheek. He took out a cigarette, only to quickly throw the cigarette into the bin beside him as soon as he glanced at the

Although Myra still had something to say, Tony lowered his head to plant a kiss on her soft, pink lips. “I’ll be alright; I’m just trying to reassure you. After all, you’re now…” He rested his hand on her belly while smiling languidly. “All you have to do is take care of the baby you’re carrying. Just leave the rest up to me.”Upon noticing his confidence, Myra was feeling more relieved. Nonetheless, she turned to look at him. “No matter what happens, you’re not to hide anything from me or let me worry, okay?”“Okay.” Tony wrapped his left hand around her right hand, his eyes tender and jovial.…Meanwhile, Cameron picked up Sean’s call immediately after hanging up Tony’s call. “Sean…” He addressed Sean over the phone cordially as soon as he picked up. “Is something the matter that you’re calling me now?”Ever since being turned down by Myra, Sean had been feeling gloomy. When he heard Cameron’s voice, he frowned in displeasure, but gave a casual reply nonetheless. “Mr. Stark, let’s m
Last Updated : 2024-11-20Standing before love I need some time alone
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 Hil

Rachel marched in from outside, and the door slammed against the doorframe as she shut it behind her. Cameron’s face darkened as he gave her a cold glare. “Rachel… What’s going on? I don’t recall you making an appointment with me.”“Hah!” She gave him a sarcastic laugh as she headed directly toward the lounge in his office. It only took her one look to notice the video that had been playing on the TV. A rather dejected expression flickered across her face when she saw the figures on the screen, but she hastily curled her lips into a smirk. “We haven’t gotten a divorce, President Stark. I’m still your wife, so do I need to make an appointment just to see you?!”His face only turned darker when he saw her looking at the TV screen. “Well, you’re looking at me now. What do you want?” In the past two days, they had both gotten rid of their facades and exposed their ugliest sides to each other. From then on, Cameron no longer saw the need to put on a show in front of Rachel, and Rachel no l

Standing before love Search for an answer
As Myra’s vision blurred, she fell into Heather’s arms, hearing the latter’s anxious voice calling her name.The sudden onset of pain was identical to the headache she had experienced before, but this time, it affected her whole body. Myra gripped her chest tightly, the pain threatening to cease her heartbeat. Without delay, Heather lifted her friend up.She then took Myra to the hospital in her car, but something peculiar happened. A short while after arriving at the hospital, Myra could feel that the pain had vanished.It was exactly like her headache last time, which left as suddenly as it came. Heather’s eyebrows creased in a frown as she wondered what was going on with Myra.“What did you see at the rockery?” Myra was staring in a particular direction when she fainted, but when Heather followed her gaze, she didn’t see anything out of the ordinary.“A cave,” Myra answered with a hollow look in her eyes.The frown on Heather’s brows deepened. How could a simple cave cause her to b
Standing before love Memories of school
It was on the day before the wedding that Heather heard from Myra that the best man was Lucas. The moment Heather heard that name, she knew that he was one of Tony’s bros. She tried to recall Lucas’s features, remembering that he didn’t talk much and seemed to be more mature.“So, what do you think?” Myra asked teasingly, “You did say you want a best man who is tall and handsome.” She jokingly reminded Heather of what she said before.Heather smiled in response, which in turn caused Myra to feel slightly curious about it. The two proceeded to sip their drinks in silence.Myra’s wedding was just around the corner, and Heather was glad to see that Myra looked comfortable and relaxed. Myra had slight pre-wedding anxiety before, so it was nice to see that she had adjusted herself.“I’m going to give you an amazing gift,” Heather said, grinning.Myra replied, “Then I will also give you a superb gift in return.”“Why not just give me a gold card?” Heather joked.Looking at the time, Myra re
Standing before love Candidate chosen
During this period, Heather looked at Myra from time to time. The atmosphere around the table was strange, giving her a sense of foreboding. The gaze that Myra returned was intriguing, as well—it made her feel uneasy.After lunch, as everyone sat around the table chatting, Heather glanced down at the time on her cell phone with a slight frown. Noting the movement, Myra realized that she could not keep Heather any longer, for lunch had already used up quite a bit of Heather’s time.Meanwhile, the clock read 2.00 PM. It was time for Heather to be at work. After dithering for a long moment, Heather decided to be direct and opened her mouth to tell Myra, “I have to go to work, so I’m taking my leave.”As it was, Heather rarely got to visit Hart Residence and had no wish to leave so hastily, but time did not permit her to linger. With a slight nod of her head, Myra responded, “Of course! Go on.” Of those at the table, she was the only one who could truly understand how busy Heather was.Fe
Standing before love A different kind of blind
Tony had assured Myra previously that Philip and Lucas would surely show up if Heather agreed to come over. As expected, the two of them reached a while later.While Philip and Lucas didn’t confirm their attendance in the group, Tilly and Elliot confirmed that they couldn’t make it. As Tilly was completely overwhelmed by her public affairs, it had been a while since she and Elliot were separated due to her work. Hence, it was normal that Elliot would go look for Tilly when he had free time.While Shawn was busy every day as the vice-mayor, he obviously wasn’t free during the noon, so Estelle was the only one who replied in the group.‘Wait for me. I’ll be here in a bit since I wouldn’t want to miss out on Myra’s food.’ After last night, she wasn’t as afraid of Heather any longer. Moreover, it wasn’t as if she had to spend time with Heather alone because everyone else would be there as well.Since Estelle was the only person left that hadn’t reached, it wasn’t appropriate for them to s
Standing before love Candidate for the best man
After a long moment, Myra replied faintly, “We can have only one best man. Who should we pick?” There would be a quandary if they really intended to match Heather with the best man.Then, the choice for best man would become complicated, as there were currently two candidates from which Myra and Tony had to choose the one most suited to Heather.“Well, from your point of view, who would suit Heather more—Philip or Lucas?” It wasn’t up to Tony to decide, since Myra knew Heather better, anyway.“It’s hard to say. They both have their merits,” Myra replied hesitantly, wondering if she should have them meet up once more before the wedding.It felt too improper for them only to have met under the flickering lights of Zion Club and the influence of alcohol. There was a possibility that in broad daylight, Heather could feel a different spark altogether with the two candidates.“We still need to see what Heather thinks,” Tony suggested meaningfully.“Let’s find a time to meet up tomorrow,” sh
Standing before love Gathering at Zion club
Prior to Tony and Myra’s wedding, Estelle, who was busy with her shootings overseas, rushed back. Not to mention, Tilly, who was on her annual holiday, canceled her holiday and came back as well. Immediately, Myra felt like Bradfort City had become lively again because it had been a long time since she met them.However, Tony, on the other hand, valued Myra over his friends and didn’t bother about them, as he was too busy spending time with her. After some discussion, they all decided to meet each other at Zion Club, and the Messenger group chat that went quiet for a long time became active again.Besides that, Myra also added Heather into the group. This was Heather’s first group chat on Messenger because she barely used it if it weren’t for Myra. The group got even more lively with her arrival while Tony warned the others as he figured that Heather was probably not used to lively chats like this. ‘You guys better behave well and don’t scare her away.’Unexpectedly, Heather replied,
Standing before love Dare to challenge
After staring at each other for a few seconds, Evan looked away while Matthias stared at him from above. Matthias! How am I supposed to know when I know my way around girls?“Jobbery,” Evan said.It seemed like Matthias found Evan’s suggestion interesting as he gave Evan a knowing look while Evan only continued talking after a while. “Since Heather is completely focused on her work, it would be better for you to approach her under the name of work.”Heather probably wouldn’t be happy with Matthias if he kept approaching her anytime he could, especially when she was working. After all, most people wouldn’t be happy to be disturbed by private matters during work. Moreover, Matthias would just be ruining his chances, considering how career-oriented Heather was.“Seeing how the partnership discussion with Langston Group hasn’t reached an agreement, I don’t have the time to do anything else,” Matthias felt his head hurting as he said. He really wanted to work together with Langston Group f
Standing before love A hopeless chauvinist
On one hand, Myra and Tony were happily making their wedding preparations. On the other hand, things were getting worse. In comparison, Matthias appeared to be in a bleak situation.Heather thought that he deserved the outcome. Hence, she could never sympathize with him. Her failed relationship in the past did not cripple her, and she had never acted out like Matthias.In fact, she held a disdain for people like him who would cry and wail over relationship issues. She felt a heightened annoyance at Matthias, but she did not know if the feeling rose because she was angry at the fact that he was deeply in love with Myra.She was disturbed by his obsession with Myra, but she would never openly admit to it. Moreover, she had no right to confront him about his love for Myra.Under Evan’s encouragement, Matthias mustered up his courage to do something. He could not keep languishing when Myra’s wedding was nearing. At the very least, he wanted to attend her wedding with grace. Before that, h
Standing before love The wedding preparation
When the date of Myra’s wedding drew closer, Matthias seemed to have fallen into a trance.Heather had completely given up on him, for she always looked down on men like him. Seriously though, what is his point of showing his despondency like a drama queen?Finally, it was Evan who called her and begged her to pay a visit to Matthias’s place.“I’m super busy. I don’t have the time to do so,” she rejected emotionally. Even after listening to Evan describing Matthias’s desperate situation, she had nothing but disdain for him.At that point, Matthias was basically living in his wine cellar and gave up on running Locke Group. His behavior attracted complaints from the board of directors. Even Heather was shocked to find Matthias throwing a huge fit over Myra’s wedding. In her eyes, his action was utterly despicable.“Please tell him: He does not deserve love if he only acts out like a child. He needs to learn how to love someone right before he gets all dramatic over someone again,” she h
