Standing before love Please be logical
Both of them had tall builds with similar handsome features and unique temperaments, which made the ladies around them whisper among themselves while intermittently casting alluring glances at them.Tony, who was unfazed by their responses, narrowed his eyes and suddenly raised his head to gulp down the red wine in his glass.“I heard that Katie is pregnant, so your holiday is almost over, right?” Tony did not seem to hear Damian’s words.Damian gazed further and looked at the woman who was beside Sean just now. Currently, she was following behind Sean, and they seemed to have had a disagreement as their expressions were dark. With his brows knitted, Damian didn’t reply to him but instead he commented in a stern manner, “Tony, she is a married woman!”If my guess is correct, he has a crush on that woman. Damian was older than Tony by three years. Other than him, nobody else at home could say anything that would affect Tony’s decision.Upon hearing the words that had been stressed on b

rom the initial paleness, which was due to her dislocated elbow, her face gradually reddened and currently, her face felt extremely hot.She suddenly grabbed Tony’s hand and placed it on her face.The man’s lower temperature brought comfort to her. A quiet moan escaped from her parted lips as she slowly moved his hand down along her neck.The expressions of the three men changed slightly and awkwardness spread across their faces.As Myra was wearing an evening gown, she didn’t wear anything else underneath it. Therefore, when the man’s hand was placed on her chest—which was a little wet—the softness of her chest could be clearly felt.Tony’s eyes instantly darkened the moment his gaze landed on her chest. Suddenly, he raised his head and shot a piercing look at Elliot and Philip beside him, making them cough awkwardly before they sagely turned around.“Tony…” Philip rubbed his nose uneasily. “I don’t think Miss Stark has a fever; it seems more like… she had taken something…”It was cl

She inhaled sharply and instantly checked her body. Upon seeing that she was still wearing the gown that she wore at the banquet, she abruptly felt relieved. My body has not been touched by anyone…Myra rose from the bed and felt dizzy due to her large movements. Hence, she had to clutch the blanket for some time before she finally managed to exit the room.When she reached the first floor, most of the guests in the hall had left.She took out her phone but did not find any messages or missed calls from Sean. So, she directly dialed the number which she had memorized, yet nobody picked up her call even after the phone had been ringing for a long time.Myra’s hand trembled but she forced herself to make another call.This time, the phone on the other end of the line was switched off.When she recalled the woman she saw earlier, she suddenly realized why Sean didn’t fall in love with her.Lyla was just like a devil in his heart—though he hated her to the bones, she still had a place in

It might have been due to the effects of the alcohol or the residual of drugs in her body that caused her to lose her breath. The air felt thin and Myra fell into a daze, her eyes wide. Her hands that were placed on Tony’s firm chest gradually lost their strength and fell down. In a trance, she actually thought that the man before her was the same man who had once promised to give her happiness.She subconsciously moved her lips; the passionate and soft feeling against her lips felt so real.Tony looked into her sorrowful eyes, yet he was charmed by her innocent movements, which induced an overwhelming feeling inside him. He suddenly extended a hand and covered her slightly listless eyes while murmuring by her lips, “Close your eyes.”His voice was especially husky and it emanated a sense of domineering sensualness, his eyes dark and bottomless when they stared straight into Myra’s. It was as if there was a deep lake inside Tony’s eyes that kept tempting her to stare into them.At tha

She called him a jerk non-stop. She herself was clear that it was merely a kiss, so though she was mad, it couldn’t have made her feel so awful. The reason she was so upset right now was because of the man who had never cared about her.Suddenly, she felt that her body was taken into an embrace and she could hear a quiet sigh by her ear, making her freeze again.However, this time, Tony did not do anything to her.Myra sobbed even louder in his arms. At that moment, she petulantly did not want to push away the shoulder that came to her and at the same time, she had no strength to push away the slightly warm chest as well.It was dark outside. The woman wept non-stop in his embrace, while he looked at the street that was bustled with pedestrians and cars outside, his gaze deep. Impassive, he remained in the same position for a long time and nobody could tell what he had on his mind.When Myra finally regained her consciousness, the car had already been parked at a pathway not far from

Myra turned around.The car’s rear lights gradually diminished as the car travelled further on the winding path down the hill, taking away the last bit of warmth along with it. Finally, it disappeared around the corner of the hilly road.For some reason, Myra felt a sudden flush of panic, as if something was going to slip through her fingers.Holding her chest, she took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.She shut her eyes. I am married. Even if Sean doesn’t love me, I shouldn’t stoop so low as to cheat on him and embarrass him. Also, Tony is too unfathomable and mesmerizing; he isn’t a man I can easily mess with. I must stand my ground and stay away!She stopped staring at the path stretched out in front of her and averted her gaze before turning around with a complex expression on her face. Then, she walked toward the Chase Residence slowly.After she had barely taken a few steps, she started to pant heavily, causing a wry smile to involuntarily appear on her face. All I did wa

“What? How is that possible?” Elliot was shocked.He knew very well how charming Tony was. Why would the woman be so stupid to sleep in another man’s bed when she has the opportunity to get close to Tony?“You think that it’s impossible?” Tony asked nonchalantly.Elliot could feel the stress piling up and he gulped. “I didn’t say so. It’s just that—”“Even if it’s impossible, make it possible!” Tony’s sudden harsh tone made Elliot shudder.“Tony, what do you mean?” Elliot, of course, didn’t understand Tony’s meaning but right after the former asked the question, the call was hung up by the person on the other end of the line.Elliot felt helpless. Could it be that the woman named Myra has made Tony lose his mind? Nevertheless, this incident had allowed Elliot to see Tony’s determination to get Myra.After Tony hung up, all sorts of emotions flashed across his eyes. Soon, he narrowed his eyes slightly and stomped on the pedal all of a sudden, making the car speed off like an arrow in a

Standing before love Loss of reason
As Heather returned to Langston Group, her mind was full of questions while she troubled herself over the next step. The moment she opened the door to the office, Heather had the urge to cry, but she had no tears to shed. She looked at the man sitting on her seat and gave him a smile that looked worse than crying.“Where’d you go?” Matthias looked at Heather in disdain. It was obvious that he came here to catch her in the act.Matthias’ tone got on Heather’s nerves. She hadn’t even confronted him about the incident the day before, but he dared to use this questioning tone to talk to her.“That’s none of your business. Get off my chair.” Heather wasn’t intimidated in the least. If it weren’t for the glass door, she would’ve made Matthias wish he were dead.She was suddenly impressed by Blake for getting her an office with a glass door. It was crystal clear, so anything that happened on one side of the door could be seen from the other.The transparency restricted Heather’s actions and
Standing before love Business first
In the meantime, Heather noticed her phone ringing a few times but decided to ignore Matthias’ calls and hang them up. Nonetheless, her phone continued to ring again and again, no matter how many times she declined them. Eventually, Heather became annoyed and directly turned off her phone after her refusal to answer the call failed to make Matthias give up.On the other hand, the man lay down his phone in disappointment, surprised that Heather would rather turn off her phone than answer his call. It seems that I really did piss her off pretty badly yesterday. Great! Even Heather won’t talk to me now. At the thought of that, he somehow felt overwhelmed by loneliness.Meanwhile, Heather was bothered by mixed feelings inside her, deeming Matthias capricious and fathomless. Deep down, she reckoned Matthias still stubbornly insisted that it was all her fault for ruining his chance of living a happy life with Myra. Despite her guilt toward him about the things that had happened in the past,
Standing before love No need to do this
Considering her irrational state, Heather was prompted by her instincts to leave the place before the situation turned ugly. Nevertheless, she somehow couldn’t bring herself to simply just walk away because she didn’t know how she could face Matthias again if she opened the door and left like that. At the same time, she was mad and disgusted with herself for taking him into consideration at such a time.“Get out!” Matthias bellowed at Heather, clinging onto the last bit of his rationality.Heather calmly exchanged gazes with Matthias; she looked the man in the eye without even blinking as she refused to leave due to his impertinent attitude. I’m not just some woman whom you could just summon and shoo away as you wish! After all, the man’s mean response somehow hurt her pride.“You told me to follow you, and now you’re asking me to go?” Heather glared at Matthias, as if a fight could break out between them at any minute.Although Matthias was succumbing to his agitated emotions, Heathe
Standing before love Let matthia accept
Right now, Matthias had completely lost his composure and confidence. He was no longer his usual self, and his cowardly character was now totally out in the open. At this moment, Heather could not get away, but she could not ignore him either, so the two embraced each other in a bizarre manner.“Am I a failure?” Like a child, Matthias was curled up in Heather’s arms. He was a tall and burly man, yet he looked especially fragile at this moment.“No. There is no winning or losing when it comes to matters of the heart,” Heather replied gently. Recalling her previous relationship, she also thought at that time that she was a failure.Hearing that, Matthias held back his tears. Men should not shed tears, so he just stared at Heather. With mixed feelings, Heather felt uncomfortable under his stare, and she thought that she saw the old her in his eyes.“You’re not manly at all when you look like this.” Heather slightly raised her eyebrows, trying to ease the tension.At this time, no matter
Standing before love I’m in a hurry to go home
Heather was puzzled after being questioned by Matthias like that. It sounded like there were terrorists who wanted to attack Myra and Tony’s wedding. She was not someone who was willing to be led on like that, so she narrowed her eyes and looked at Matthias indifferently, as if she was watching a show.“Excuse me, but I’m in a hurry to get home.” She completely did not take his words to heart.With Tony’s skills, he was still able to protect Myra, so Heather wasn’t worried at all about what Matthias said.“Heather, please believe me.” Matthias’ eyes widened, making him look a little scary.“You’ve been making a scene all day. What more do you want?” Heather said helplessly. Actually, she felt disappointed in him and wanted to get rid of this annoying man as soon as possible.“Give me half an hour. I really have something very important to say to you.” Matthias was already trying to be very patient, but Heather’s words and actions made him feel really saddened.With a cold huff, Heathe
Standing before love Finding someone
The day of the wedding was approaching, and every day, Myra woke up in a different mood as she felt the subtle changes within her. Every day was a new day; sometimes, it felt like time passed too quickly, and sometimes, it was the complete opposite.Myra instructed Tony to keep a low profile; hence, during these days, Bradfort City was quiet. In fact, Tony had sent out invitations much earlier, so the entire business world knew that he was marrying Myra. Although several media companies got wind of the news, Tony didn’t allow them to report it indiscriminately, so the wedding was a very low-key one.Matthias received the invitation from Tony as well, and when he looked at the invitation in his hand, he felt that it was surreal. Gripping the invitation in his hand until it crumpled, he had no idea how to describe what he felt.Perhaps it was the joy that such an occasion brought with it that cast a peaceful vibe over the entire Bradfort City. Matthias looked at the computer in front of
Standing before love The lover who can do anything
When talking about things like bags, women simply could go on and on. Once again, Heather avoided the part that she didn’t want to talk about, and Myra also had no way to continue to ask her. However, she at least finally understood Heather’s relationship issues.Afterward, when she thought of the fact that Heather had kept such an important thing a secret, Myra felt a thorn in her heart. Nevertheless, she was also hiding something from Heather at the time.Even best friends had secrets that could not be said, so she felt better after comforting herself that way. Now that Heather had revealed this matter, Myra intended to go back to think of a countermeasure because she could not let Heather continue so.While chatting, time passed unknowingly, but the two still had a lot to say. However, Tony then arrived after getting off work, waiting to take Myra home.Glancing at Myra with envy, Heather felt relieved when she knew that Tony truly loved Myra. Just now, Myra had told her about the
Standing before love The one who convinces
She’s hesitating again. Guess I have to ramp up the intensity. It wasn’t every day Heather would talk about her relationship problems, so Myra wanted to teach her everything at once. “You’re still hiding something from me?” Myra asked sternly. She had to do that, or Heather wouldn’t cave in.“It happened back in school.” Heather struggled for a moment before finally deciding to come clean. It had been her little secret for too long, and she never told anyone about it. Now that she looked back on it, Heather thought it was a sweet memory, even though the relationship didn’t end well. It did bud, though.She and that young man were two proud individuals. It was the first time Heather came across someone who was so similar that she felt like he was her other half. It was then she started falling for him.Back then, she had just begun studying abroad in Italy, so everything was new and unfamiliar to her. The good thing was that she finally broke free of her family, and back then, she stil
Standing before love A difficult problem
It’s hard to talk about? Myra’s heart sank, because Heather never described anything that way. She shot Heather a look, telling her to keep talking.“How does it feel to love someone?” Heather asked after much hesitation. She didn’t know how it felt to love someone, nor did she know how to fall for someone.Myra shot her a look of surprise. “You have a crush?” That was the only reason for that question; at least, that was the only one she could think of.Heather shook her head. “No. But I don’t dislike him either. It’s a weird feeling.” Heather looked confused, because even she couldn’t understand the relationship between her and Matthias.Myra stared at her in disbelief. At that moment, she needed Heather to be completely honest with her, or she wouldn’t be able to give her any good advice. “Why’d you ask that question then?” Myra wasn’t about to be fooled. Obviously, she could see that Heather was going through something special in her life, and she could think of nothing else but r
