Standing before love I hope you live long
Tony must have felt Sean’s eyes on him. When he turned casually, he was met by a pair of somber eyes. Smirking, he said, “You left in a hurry last time so I didn’t get the chance to congratulate you, Director Chase. I heard you and Miss Fisher are getting married next month. I hope you live a long and happy life together.”Those words plunged into Sean’s heart like a sharp awl. His lips moved. “Thank you, Director Hart.”He looked away after he spoke. The lines on his cheek turned stone-cold as if he was suppressing his anger.Tony smiled faintly, but there was not a trace of warmth in his eyes.Shortly after, the conference reached its peak. Tony was the last to go up on stage after Sean was done with his turn. When he went on stage, the lively energy of the crowd almost ripped through the roof of the auditorium.The students in the audience posed many questions such as what he was like in school, problems in the early stages of entrepreneurship, and the reason he succeeded the Hart
Standing before love Can it still bring profits
Myra recalled Kris always being fond of that villa in Cape District.But it was a property that Cameron was hoarding—it was the most expensive and significant place to him—so he never let it go to Kris.When Cameron blurted those words out, Myra felt disgusted but also surprised, and she understood why Kris had a sour expression on her way out earlier. Nonetheless, she did not think that this was Cameron’s sudden attempt at being a loving father. Narrowing her eyes at him, she said, “Just tell me what this is about, President Stark. Even if you don’t find beating around the bush annoying, I find it quite exhausting.”This time, however, he was not displeased with her rude speech and simply gave her a resigned smile. “Look at you. I just wanted to make your journey to work every day more convenient for you. Your sister always wanted that villa, but I kept it for you. Myra, I treat you much better than I treat your sister.”“Oh.” She did not show any emotions. “Since you want to give it
Standing before love Don’t wait until they are gone
Sean turned around with a cigarette burning slowly in his hand. On top of the trash can next to him, there were a few cigarette buds that had already been put out. When he heard the principal’s question, a number of complicated emotions flurried across his eyes. He stayed quiet for a long while, then took a puff of smoke before he spat, “We’ve been divorced for a while now.”The principal was taken aback. He blurted, “Why?” He only realized he was too hasty after the question came out of his mouth. Noticing that Sean did not look too good, he chuckled awkwardly and said, “I’m just a curious person. I didn’t mean to sound rude. I just remember the days when Myra pursued you. When I saw the two of you get married later on, I was happy for both of you. I didn’t think…” …they would get divorced. Was there some truth in the articles that were published in the entertainment news at the time?As the principal looked at the man before him who had a successful career and was slowly becoming mo
Standing before love Once you take up my lamp
The person who ran over was a female university student. She had a sweet appearance and was petite. Feeling shy, she bit down on her lower lip with her clean white teeth and stole a glance at the side. A few students in the dormitory had their fists up in the air to show their support and encouragement, but it only made her feel more bashful. Clenching her hands, she looked up at Tony with a blushed face. “Mister, can I ask—”Before she finished, he took a puff of smoke and walked right past her without any emotion on his face as though he was not mindful of her at all.When the girl realized that she was blatantly ignored, she couldn’t help but look at her friends and chuckle. She turned around and watched Tony’s back as he left. A look of fascination flickered across her eyes.Tony took a puff of smoke and still had the same expression on his face.This maidenhair path led to the front gate of the school which was not too far away now.As he looked in the direction of the gate, a fe

After Myra said that, her face looked like it was about to burn from how red it was. She quickly sat upright in her seat and started the engine to depart.Meanwhile, the man who was on the receiving end of her affection glanced at a shady place in the rearview mirror and smiled with a profound look in his eyes.Sean’s car was still parked behind them.It was as if he had been possessed earlier. After getting into his car, he did not leave right away but drove to the school’s gate instead as though he was waiting for something.While he looked at the merry food stalls on the side of the street and the happy crowd of people, his eyes were out of focus for a long time.Did this place carry a lot of memories that he shared with Myra?The principal’s words kept circling around in his mind: ‘When it comes to certain people, don’t wait until they’re gone to feel regret. Myra deserves as much as you can give her. If another turning point comes around, you should hold on tight to it.’Do I sti
Standing before love She is not a woman
“Trying to hit on Myra?” Sean felt pain shooting up from his abdomen but couldn’t care less about it at the moment. His eyes were slightly reddened like a cornered beast’s. Looking at Tony, he sneered, “Just who is the one trying to hit on Myra here? If it wasn’t for you, Director Hart, the person accompanying her to the mall right now would be me!”“You?” Tony raised his long and slanted eyebrows slightly while flicking the ash off his cigarette. “Why don’t you tell me, Director Chase; just how many times have you ever accompanied her to the mall in the past two years? Or, should I say…” He took a drag on his cigarette, his eyes growing frosty. “How many times have you accompanied other women to the mall before?”Sean’s expression changed greatly. “This is between us as husband and wife. It is none of your business.”“Ex-husband and ex-wife.” Tony narrowed his eyes. A dark emotion flowed through his eyes as he spat out the words, “One that exists in name only.”For an instant, Sean f
Standing before love Never going to the supermarket
Myra felt something warm budding in her heart. Reaching out, she grabbed his hand that was pretending to take stuff out of the small shopping cart and interlaced her fingers with his. Then, she softly said, “I’ll just order them online for her. You don’t need to put any of the stuff you like back.”Tony lifted his eyebrow at her and wryly said, “That’s not good, is it?”Looking at his insincere and sanctimonious attitude, she squeezed his fingers hard. I’ve never seen a more shameless man than this guy. At the same time, she exasperatedly said, “It doesn’t matter. We bought enough today anyway.”Only then did he seem satisfied. He twisted his hand out of her grip to hold her hand instead while pushing the shopping cart along as he continued onward. She watched as the corners of his mouth lifted into the faintest smile. It was hard for her to imagine his cold and indifferent appearance, and her heart softened even more.Finally, they pushed the shopping cart over to the cashier to chec
Standing before love Are you here to see director
Not long after, the car arrived at a small residential area and stopped in front of a villa located in the deepest part of the area. The villa was not very large, but it was very exquisite. There was a small garden inside; various flowers and plants also trailed down from the second-floor balcony. There were white tiles, red brick walls, wooden fences, and even a small pond inside the garden. Beside the pond stood a cherry tree, giving the entire garden an idyllic feeling.A caretaker stood outside the villa. When he saw Tony’s car, he hurriedly came forward to take the keys from Tony and opened the garage door on the first floor. Upon returning the keys, he heard Tony’s indifferent voice saying, “Close the garage door behind you.”The caretaker seemed taken aback for a moment. However, he quickly nodded in response and left, not forgetting to close the garage door behind him.When Myra heard what Tony said to the caretaker, she immediately became vigilant and wanted to get out of the
