Standing before love He will be fine this time
If one were to guess what kind of situation Eve would hate the most, the current circumstances would most probably be it—after being chased out of the Chase Family, not only did Myra not plunge down the social ladder. Instead, she joined the Hart Family, which had a much better social standing than the Chase Family. Besides, both Sebastian and Lisa seemed especially fond of Myra too.Eve wasn’t really fond of Myra, so she did not feel any loss with Myra’s departure from the Chase Family. She had no intentions of having Myra rejoin the Chase Family either, but it just felt like a gaping hole. Why is somebody whom I have cast aside like an old shoe regarded like a treasure by the Hart Family? It almost feels like Myra has deliberately joined the Hart Family to taunt me. It also feels like a slap in my face.Eve’s expression stiffened the moment she saw the three of them. She was just about to turn to leave, but she figured it would look especially petty. She did not want others to assum

It turned out that Gemma and Tony had an argument at the underground parking lot. She was blinded by anger, so she crashed her vehicle into his sports car. Coincidentally, a big truck was driving by, which meant that he could have noticed her speeding in his direction. He was left with no choice, but to accelerate forward to make an emergency turn. However, due to the sudden turn and the close proximity to the big truck, he crashed into it despite turning as quickly as he could. He may not have sustained fatal wounds, but he suffered from multiple severe injuries.On the other hand, Gemma was in a much more severe condition because her driving skills were not on par with Tony. When she was driving toward him, she saw him making a turn with his car, but she did not do that in time. Hence, she crashed right into the big truck in front of her. By the time the ambulance arrived, Leo had heard from the doctor that she was at the brink of death.Upon learning that she was still in the opera

Myra initially wanted to jeer at Tony’s behavior as a patient. However, her heart ached when she was reminded that his arms were injured. Hence, she gently fed him.Not long after breakfast, Elliot and Tilly walked into Tony’s hospital room one after another.Tilly was slightly shy in the beginning and her cheeks were slightly red from blushing. Nevertheless, she might have been surprised because she cried out in shock after noticing Tony’s injuries. She forgot about her embarrassment now that she was with Elliot. “Miss Stark, is Director Hart severely injured?”Myra noticed Tilly avoiding his hand when he tried to hold hers. The two of them clearly shared an intimate and suggestive relationship, but Myra was too distracted by Tony’s car accident. Therefore, she wasn’t in the mood to focus on other issues. Upon hearing that, she looked up at Tony, who wore an indifferent facial expression. “They aren’t fatal injuries. The doctor said that he will recuperate after resting for some time

“Stop creating more trouble when things are already in such a terrible state. You are responsible for consoling Gemma when she wakes up. You must not tell her about her disfigurement. Just tell her that she will recover with plastic surgery. As for her hands—” Edward glanced at Gemma’s heavily bandaged hands and his heart sank. “Do not tell her that she will be disabled. Just inform her that she will recover and she should focus on recuperating right now.”After listening to Edward, Shelly cried without answering him. Hence, he asked again in a harsh manner, “Did you hear me?!” He poked the floor hard with his crutch and it thumped loudly.She shivered whereas Samuel glared unhappily while pressing his lips into a thin line. Finally, her lips parted to mumble in agreement, “Yeah.”After that, Edward turned to look at Samuel and Gideon. “Samuel, we shouldn’t delay the Central Square project any longer. You must not get distracted now and focus on the project instead. As for Gideon, eas

It so happened that the four members of the Walton Family were in Gemma’s room when she received the writ of summons. Upon reading the contents of the document, Edward almost fainted out of anger.We, the Waltons, are acquainted with the Hart Family. This time, it is undoubtedly Gemma’s fault, but everybody could tell that she has paid the price for her actions. On the contrary, the brat, Tony, will be just fine after recuperating for some time. However, he is adamant on suing Gemma; he’s not bothered about the shared acquaintanceship between the two families at all. If this is leaked to the public, the Walton Family will suffer tremendously in Bradford City.When the Walton Family barged into Tony’s room, Myra was leaning against his bedside. His arm, which was not badly injured, had only slightly recovered, but he was already fooling around by insisting on her lying down beside him. It was at this time when the door to his ward was slammed open with a bang. She jumped in shock and i
Last Updated : 2024-11-01Standing before love It never changed
The scene was naturally played out in front of the Walton Family, which caused their faces to boil. Even though they were disdainful toward Myra, the Hart Family was now using their actions to confirm that she was Tony’s wife and they would not tolerate any mockery toward her.At that moment, Edward’s expression was ever-changing. If they want Gemma to leave Bradfort City forever, even I won’t allow it, never mind Gemma herself. After all, she is my granddaughter and given her current state, she’ll probably lose control of her emotions and cause a ruckus if she is told to leave the city. Seeing Sebastian’s attitude, he may ignore the incident if we refuse to send Gemma away, but whether or not Tony will sue her completely depends on what he is thinking right now.However, he knew clearly what Tony had in mind at the moment.Before he could speak, his son, Samuel, patted his shoulder and said to Sebastian with a deep voice, “Old Master Hart, I admit that this is Gemma’s wrongdoing. My
Last Updated : 2024-11-01Standing before love Why are you still listening
Elsie was probably overwhelmed by what had just happened; it was either that or she was now encountering some trouble, causing her not to hear clearly what transpired at the other end of the phone, so she continued to talk to Myra. “When she was working for the Chase Group, she did a lot of things to discredit the company and even stole classified company secrets. In the end, she was kicked out of the company. Mr. Hart… You…” After Elsie calmed down slightly, she realized that there were rumors saying that Myra actually stole the Chase Group’s Hilliville project for the Hart Group. Instantly, she was rendered speechless, but her heart was still full of hatred and dissatisfaction. “Mr. Hart, I will never lie to you. Myra is a very calculative woman. The child inside her is probably not yours! Don’t—”“Miss Foster, why don’t you tell me who the father of the child inside me is if it isn’t Tony’s?”While listening to Elsie’s words, Myra didn’t know how to describe the emotions inside her

The man already lowered his head as he accurately sealed Myra’s lips with his thin lips.“Um… Tony…” She struggled for a moment, but each time she moved, the man would let out a soft hiss. She didn’t know whether she had touched his wounds, so she didn’t dare to move a muscle.However, her obedience only fueled the flame inside the man.The ward’s washroom wasn’t gigantic, so soon after, the air inside started to boil as waves of heat impacted Myra.Tony could see that her eyes had now turned completely red compared to her serious look earlier.“Myra, can you sit here?” he murmured with a deep voice while kissing her.His voice was charmingly husky, causing her body to tremble slightly. As she opened her eyes and saw the gentle yet undefiable eyes of the man in front of her, she couldn’t help but listen to him and sit on the washstand.When she wanted to open her mouth and say something, the man approached her with his thin lips again so that she wouldn’t have the chance to speak.…A

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
