Did Myra tell you to be here

last update Last Updated: 2024-11-22 22:42:50

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

  • Standing before love    He won’t come back

    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

    Tony didn’t ask her why she went to the Chase Group. “Well, it’s good to go back and rest early. I’ll go back early tonight.”The corners of Myra’s mouth turned up slightly when she heard his reply. When he finished his sentence, she immediately asked, “Aren’t you going to ask me why I went to the Chase Group?”“Why else would you have gone other than to return the share transfer agreement that Sean gave you?” Tony replied nonchalantly as if he didn’t give a damn about this matter or Sean himself.Myra smiled. “You actually guessed it right. All right then, come back early tonight.”“Okay.” Tony hung up directly without saying anything else.When Myra hung up and turned around, Sebastian was still standing beside her. Once she put down the receiver, he glared at Myra and snorted. “You’re about to get married, yet you keep going to the Chase Group. Aren’t you worried that your fiancé will be jealous?”“Tony isn’t jealous at all; he didn’t even ask me what I was doing there,” Myra repli

  • Standing before love    What crime?

    Myra asked three questions in succession. “Didn’t Elliot say that something might happen tonight? Weren’t you guys going to expose the Walton Family’s crimes? Won’t they become angry and attack the few of you?”Tony narrowed his eyes at once, and his gaze darkened somewhat. Well done, Elliot; I just asked him to bring Myra a message, but I didn’t expect him to shoot his mouth off, he thought to himself. After letting out a sigh, he took her back into his arms. “I’m fine. They’re still unaware of what we’ve done tonight, so everything is going smoothly. You don’t have to be worried,” he reassured her. Then, as his gaze fell on her bare feet, he knitted his brows instantly. Tony scooped Myra up in his arms at once, and he walked upstairs with his heart aching for her. “Why did you come out without wearing a pair of slippers? The weather is cool now, so you can’t risk falling ill.”“That’s right. She dashed out of the house as soon as she heard your car driving in; I couldn’t stop her at

  • Standing before love    Shall we stop playing

    Tony told her that the Walton Family was suspected of engaging in smuggling and drug-trafficking activities. Even though they might not have done those things after arriving in Bradfort City, they had undoubtedly laundered money. Cameron was on friendly terms with the Waltons whilst they were in the process of laundering money; even if their relationship probably fell apart because of what happened to Kris, their interest-based partnership still existed. Once charges were brought against the Walton Family, Cameron would never escape being investigated. Furthermore, the Stark Group could have continued on at first, but it could possibly collapse at once when the Walton Family’s crimes were exposed.Cameron panicked, so he probably called her to ask Myra for help.However, Myra answered the phone at this moment. She knew that this matter was very serious, so much so that the Stark Group might be convicted of colluding with the Walton Family. If that happened, the Stark Group would be in

    Everyone relaxed a little now that the matter was solved for the most part. Myra darted Elliot an angry look, prompting Tony to hold her tighter.…Myra didn’t know how things were going, but the news was soon updated on her cell phone. The money-laundering activities carried out by the Walton Family of the Bradfort City had been exposed. Moreover, it was reported that the Walton Family was suspected of smuggling, drug trafficking, and even murder, so the police had launched an investigation.It took less than two months from the moment the Walton Family made the preparations until the moment they executed their plans, yet they recklessly created a lot of disturbance in Bradfort City, this caused everyone in the city to feel insecure for a moment. Many of those who had contact with the Walton Family started to dissociate themselves from the family, and it was even reported that the three men of the Walton Family had been taken to the police station for questioning.

    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

    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

    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,

    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
