Standing before love Are you worried
“I guess it’s true, then! How capable of you to be greedy for someone else whilst in bed with another, Kris! It’s not all bad, though—Young Master Fuller can finally put his back-up plan to good use now,” Hayden sneered as he laughed wickedly. Along with that, the look in his eyes became audacious and belittling as he stared at Hayden. “Are you sure you want to be with a woman as filthy as her?! Isn’t it disgusting to you?”“You’ve crossed the line, Young Master Walton,” said Hayden emotionlessly. The next moment, he took Kris’ hand and turned to leave the restaurant.His strides were long and swift and Kris struggled to keep up to him. When she finally did, though, she almost slipped and fell down.“Let me go, Hayden! You’re hurting my wrist!” Kris was a little pale as she tried to follow close behind.However, Hayden didn’t seem to have heard her cries. When they finally arrived at the car, he opened the door and practically shoved her onto the seat carelessly before shutting the do

Sean knitted his good-looking brows with a frosty look in his eyes. “Tony doesn’t deserve to be together with you if he gets angry at you over this!”Myra was so angered by his reply that she almost laughed. Not wanting to waste her breath talking to the man before her anymore, she beckoned to the security guard who kept craning his neck and looking in their direction. Then, she turned to look at Sean and said, “Whether or not he deserves to be together with me is my call to make. Besides, there’s one thing that I’m very clear about—you don’t deserve to be together with me!”By the time she finished her sentence, the security guard had come to her side. He then asked respectfully, “What can I do for you, Miss Stark?”Myra’s eyes swept coldly past the man before her, and his expression turned ghastly. “Nothing. This gentleman might harass me, so please help me to keep an eye on him,” she said. Then, as the security guard eyed Sean with hostility, she walked toward the Hart Group’s buil

When he thought of Olivia, his daughter, Cameron couldn’t help but think of that woman. That woman and his daughter were his real family; the two of them were the only ones who stayed with him and gave him happiness without any complaints regardless of his financial situation!Cameron clenched his fists tightly before he turned around. Just as he was about to leave, Myra—who could no longer hold back the anger within her—questioned the man before her and asked, “Did you ever love my Mom when you were together with her?”Myra couldn’t believe that the man in front of her—this selfish, treacherous, deceitful, and narrow-minded man—was actually the person her mother used to love. Not only did he have an extramarital affair with Rachel, he had also been keeping a mistress behind everyone’s back and even fathered a daughter! Neither Rachel nor her mother was the woman he loved the most, for he dealt with these two women while secretly building another home of his own. Just how filthy has h

Olivia held the woman’s hand firmly. “Don’t worry, Mom. I have sworn to you that I’ll never go to him. I know what kind of person he is, so please be rest assured that I’ll never go to him. Just put your mind at rest and have your illness treated, okay?”The woman still wanted to say something, but she nodded at the sight of Olivia’s determined expression. I should trust my daughter, she thought to herself.The ambulance wasn’t fast throughout the journey, but it soon arrived at the designated hospital in Bradfort City.Moments later, the woman looked at Olivia in disbelief when she was wheeled out of the ambulance. She knew this hospital, for it was the best hospital in the entire Bradfort City. It cost a lot of money just to treat a minor illness here—perhaps all their savings wouldn’t even be enough for an operation!The woman began to grow suspicious. “No, Olivia—let us go back to the county. I’ll have the surgery in the county, and I don’t need any assistance. A minor surgery won

It wasn’t just unpleasant!” Myra curled her lips. “We even had a quarrel; he negated everything about the time he spent with my mother and expressed his stance. Also, he’ll never give us ten percent of the Stark Group’s shares.”“It’s even better if he doesn’t give us the shares.” Tony curled his thin lips into a smile and opened his starry eyes—they were bright and dazzling as if they had sucked in all the stars in the world. Then, he kissed Myra on the lips and said, “He’ll still be a shareholder of the Stark Group if he gives us the shares. If he doesn’t…” He sneered, but as he stared at Myra’s face, he softened his expression and stroked her long hair with his hand. “The part of the Stark Group that belongs to him will belong to you.”Somehow, Myra couldn’t help but feel embarrassed when she met Tony’s affectionate gaze while sitting on his lap. Deciding to simply let the chips fall where they may, she planted a kiss on the man’s thin lips and looked at his eyes. “Cameron said som

As Myra looked at the document in her hand, a feeling of restlessness surged up within her. Then, she stuffed the document back in Sharon’s hands and said, “Can you run an errand for me, Sharon? Send this back—I know the address of that man’s company.”Meanwhile, the florist named Sharon looked somewhat ill at ease. “I can do it for you, but the person predicted that you’d send this back, Miss Stark. He said that the document in it has come into effect, so you must go to him personally if you want to amend it…”Myra opened the brown paper bag speechlessly. As Tony mentioned, it contained individual shares of the Stark Group; Sean had listed her as the beneficiary after buying them. Myra pressed her lips together, took out her cell phone, and dialed a number. When the call finally picked up, she asked, “Mr. Kennedy, what procedures do I need to go through in order to return the Stark Group’s shares given by someone else?” When she got the answer from the other end of the phone, she loo

Well, do you know why she won’t come back to me, Mom?” Sean’s face darkened the instant he heard Eve’s words, and he stared at her without concealing the fierce glint in his eyes. “Would Myra and I have come to this point in our relationship had you not kept being secret about the matter with Lyla’s baby?! Aren’t you the one who caused all this, Mom?!”“I know that you hate me, Sean, but what happened is already in the past… Now that Myra doesn’t want to return to your side, she won’t come back to you even if you give the Chase Group to her!” Eve’s heart was full of desolation and fear as she saw her son behaving in such a manner. She was afraid that the Chase Group would be reduced to ruins in such a way, and that they would go back to being poverty-stricken as they were a few years ago. “Listen to me, Sean—don’t do anything stupid. Now that you guys have divorced each other, you two are no longer related. Don’t put the Chase Group in jeopardy for Myra’s sake. The Chase Group is the

Myra looked at the man before her with an apathetic expression as though she didn’t see anything just now. She merely said impassively to him, “I have given Mrs. Chase the document you gave me, Director Chase. I won’t accept the share transfer agreement; I may have my attorney cooperate in the follow-up procedures after you amend it. I just hope that you won’t bring us into more trouble by making such issues again in the future.”With that, she turned around and left the Chase Group right away. She believed that with Eve’s current hostility toward her, the latter would do everything she could to force Sean to take back the document after she read it—this would save her a lot of trouble.However, she had just taken two steps when her arm was grabbed from behind. “Myra, wait—”“Let go of me!” She reflexively broke free of Sean’s grasp and looked at him warily.Sean felt a bit sad when he saw the look in Myra’s eyes. Then, as if the apathy he displayed toward Eve just now no longer exist

Standing before love Proposals
(Final Chapter)However, before Myra could digest the incidents, a knock on the door emerged again. Zayne’s eyes lit up at once as he reckoned it was most probably Jason this time.Sure enough, Jason appeared in front of them with injuries. Leon found Jason rather unfamiliar as it was natural for one to not remember a driver’s appearance.“You’re finally here, Jason!” Heather exclaimed in surprise upon seeing him as she had waited for him for a long time.“Zayne Lee.” With a cold look, Jason walked up to Zayne and tilted his head to look at him. “Stop acting. I know you’re not injured.”Zayne stared at Jason awkwardly as he had not expected to be seen through by Jason so easily. Meanwhile, the others glanced toward Zayne in shock.“Congratulations. Your plan to lure the enemy out has succeeded. Now, I can tell you with certainty that the mastermind behind all these is Caleb Moriarty.” It was very rare for Jason to spit out such a long sentence.The others were not surprised upon heari
Standing before love Weird things happened
Since the situation had escalated to this point, they could only fight to their death, and Matthias was prepared for the battle. Even though the opponent was one of the top killers in the world, it was not an issue at all for Matthias to protect himself. However, it would be an arduous task to protect Zayne, the patient, at the same time.Matthias decided to be the vanguard and asked Leon to stay by Zayne’s side while he guarded the door vigilantly. They didn’t know when the killer would discover them, so Matthias had to guard the door well.Meanwhile, Heather kept increasing the fare’s price to the driver, hoping that she would be able to find Jason as soon as possible. Looking at the GPS, she became more flustered when they got closer to the destination. She was perturbed as the truth was about to be revealed, and she was all the more anxious at the thought of the critical situation in the hospital. Even if she successfully found Jason now, there was not enough time to rush back to
Standing before love A waiting game
Since when has Leon become this caring? Lying on the bed, Zayne really wished to turn to lie on his side. Due to the anesthetics, he didn’t feel much pain; he just felt uncomfortable because he couldn’t stretch his body. Nevertheless, he wasn’t hoping for anyone to understand his feelings at this moment. He attempted to move his body as he was worried if he had actually become handicapped.Leon glanced at Zayne in puzzlement, wondering what he was struggling about. Zayne didn’t seem to be in a good situation, but Leon had no idea how to help him. The two of them faced each other while Leon stared at Zayne with an inquiring look, but he still couldn’t understand what was on Zayne’s mind.It was only until Matthias came into the ward did the standstill between the two come to an end. Leon stood up and stared at Matthias. At that moment, all three of them were at a loss for words as an awkward atmosphere arose in the ward.Alas, Leon spoke up and broke the ice. “I’m going to buy oranges
Standing before love The patient should be given the most respect
The atmosphere surrounding the two men was extremely intense. Matthias didn’t want to cause more trouble at this moment, so he took a few steps back and attempted to keep a distance away from Leon.Leon understood Matthias’ intention. He smirked and said in a sarcastic manner, “President Locke, I heard you’ve been keeping a woman recently.”Matthias freaked out upon hearing his words. So Leon’s actually mad because of this. Matthias couldn’t think of an appropriate explanation. Staring at Leon’s eyes, he knew Leon might not buy his words even if he explained them to him.“You actually believed those rumors?” Matthias said justly. He didn’t intend to explain the details to Leon, nor did he want to be maligned.“I’ve seen you and the woman together with my own eyes.” If it wasn’t that Leon had seen it himself, he wouldn’t be this suspicious of Matthias.Matthias looked at Leon in resignation. It seems like he’s really concerned about Heather’s matters—he’s still bothered about these thi
Standing before love An intense atmosphere
Heather walked toward the main road while pondering. Judging by the traffic of the cars that were passing by on the busy road, she had a feeling it would be very hard for her to get a cab at this moment. Hence, she was starting to get a headache just by staring at the noisy street.She reckoned no drivers would be willing to accept a booking at times like these but she still decided to give it a try—only now did she suddenly realize the importance of owning a car.But alas, the fastest way she could think of was to increase the offer price. She believed there would definitely be drivers who were willing to accept her booking as long as she offered a price that was high enough. However, she worried that the cabs were too far away.True enough, when Heather opened the ride-hailing app, there were no drivers around the area. She wished she could get a driver by offering a huge stack of money, but sometimes, there were situations that even money couldn’t solve.When a driver finally accep
Standing before love A sudden accident
Ever since he stepped foot in Bradfort City, Zayne had nothing but problem after problem piled on his plate. This time, he looked for trouble himself. Matthias’ situation was already far beyond what Zayne could handle, and Jason knew that the latter was barely holding on.After Matthias had left, Jason descended into worry. He looked at Zayne, his face a little on the pale side. Neither brother had managed to reach an agreement. Jason completely did not approve of what Zayne was doing, and the conflict between them could blow up at any moment.The atmosphere was loaded like a powder keg. Both men’s expressions were tense, and it seemed as though things would break down the next second. Jason moved and took a step forward, whereas Zayne curled his hands into fists. The situation was both awkward and tense.Jason continued to march forward. Zayne could find no reason to make him stay, so he helplessly watched as Jason left the room. He looked at his younger brother, his lips faintly qui
Standing before love Someone who creates problems
Anger was still anger in the end, and Heather wasn’t someone who would cling to someone unreasonably either. She knew that Leon wouldn’t have hung up on her so easily, and it seemed that he was extremely tired.After her call with Leon ended, Zayne texted her. She played the video clip that he had sent to her, but she wasn’t sure how to react to it. Not only that, Heather didn’t know how he had managed to get his hands on this firsthand information—the venue in the clip was where the Locke Group’s board of directors were currently at.Heather took notice of Matthias in an instant. When she saw him there all by himself, she suddenly felt that he needed to be protected as well. Sometimes, she really couldn’t get a handle on him as her heart ached for Matthias.However, Heather couldn’t bring herself to examine her conscience even though she could sense that Matthias was under a lot of pressure. She had only watched a few seconds of the video clip, but her heartstrings were already being
Standing before love Two unfortunates
At that moment, any further exchange would simply be pointless. The day had barely started, yet it was already so disastrous. The next hours would be even more so.The more Zayne wanted her to admit it, the more resistant she was to do so. With a stiff face, she responded, “It’s his personal affairs. Why should I care?”When he heard her bold words, Zayne had a hard time holding back his laugh, for he was astounded by how persistent she was. Heather was so reluctant to admit it, so he didn’t want to pursue the matter any further. Since she felt that way, he shall have it her way.“What’s your plan today?” As he went off on a tangent, Zayne started to chatter casually. Heather felt that there had to be an underlying meaning behind his words, so she shot him a deadly glare.On the other hand, Zayne stared at her calmly, and he thought her petite look was extremely adorable. She must be dwelling on nonsense again!“Other than locking myself in here, what else can I possibly plan for? I l
Standing before love Start a disastrous day
In the freezing night, Matthias stared at the mansion in front of him with not a trace of anger. Since it belonged to the Lockes, it will no longer mean anything to him from now on. Should I say goodbye?Ever since Evan left, the residence had been especially quiet at night. Having lost his attachment to the mansion, he coldly gazed at the building as if the entire area only had one residence.Despite his desire to walk in, he stopped himself outside the home. After all, he was now truly alone after pushing everyone else away.At this moment, he sensed a fragrance of blossoms wafting in the air. He tried to locate the source but to no avail. Surprisingly, such a subtle aroma somehow matched the winter so well. As he took in the scent, he was reminded of the countless incidents, wondering when they would finally end.What surprised him was the fact that the family head had yet to look for him since he left the Locke Group, and that made him feel rather peaceful as the head seemed to ha
