Standing before love Ulterior motives
Shawn regarded her with narrowed eyes and after a while, he asked, “Why are you asking?”Knowing that he had read her mind, Estelle let out a huff before explaining, “It’s Kris—I just saw her enter the Management Department next door. Word has it that Stark Group is trying to secure the Elsinore Garden Project from the government, so I’m wondering if that might have anything to do with her coming here.” She paused before she continued speaking. “But something doesn’t feel right. I distinctly remember Myra saying that she’s in charge of the project, so what is Kris doing here in City Hall? It’s not as if she’s so kind as to lend Myra a helping hand.”Upon hearing that, Shawn raised a brow and his eyes darkened. “I can’t speak for others, but I would never pull strings for anybody unless…”“Unless what?” Estelle’s eyes glimmered with hope.He gazed at her with dark amusement in his eyes. He curled his finger, beckoning her over to him.She grew wary almost instantly. The last time he lo
Standing before love I heard you had feelings
Myra glowered at the middle-aged man before her. If she had bristled when he patted her shoulder, then she was now fuming after he had brushed his pinky finger against the back of her hand.Meanwhile, Thomas seemed unfazed and the smile on his face was warm and polite as he cajoled, “We should finish the rest of the wine, Miss Stark. It’s getting late and we ought to head home soon.”The others in the private room were oblivious to her anger. Even Tilly was beaming as she moved to clink glasses with everyone, the remaining wine in her glass sloshing as she did so.Myra’s gaze darkened as grim realization dawned upon her. It had been far too easy for them to secure the project today. Genevieve was supposed to be with them, as well, but she was called away at the very last minute.Things are not as simple as they seem, Myra thought.“Miss Stark? Miss Stark?” Thomas called out for her twice and only then did she snap out of her thoughts. She did not know why she felt sleepy all of a sudd
Standing before love God damn it
Myra tried to grab onto the doorknob, but Thomas was already pulling her further from the door. Hot tears were streaming past her cheeks, but she gritted her teeth and kicked harshly at the door, even as she was being hauled away.Meanwhile, he felt a rush of anger and frustration at the girl’s relentless struggle. He brought his hand up, but just as he was about to slap her hard across the face again, the door was kicked open from the outside.Thomas was startled as the door slammed open with a violent ‘bang’. Almost instantly, a man with a thunderous expression strode through the entry and landed a harsh kick against Thomas’ sternum, sending him flying backward.“Y-You…” His eyes widened when he took in the familiar face before him and he faltered as panic rose in him.Thomas knew the man. He knew him so well that the recognition itself made his bones tremble with fear. This was the man who haunted the urban legends of Bradfort City—Tony Hart, the fourth son of the Hart family and y
Standing before love She must have
By the time she woke up, Tony had already arrived outside her apartment.The moment she opened her eyes, which were still bleary with sleep, she was immediately cradled in his firm embrace once more as he carried her into the building.His arms were like a warm cage containing her scent. She was fully awake now and she clung onto the front of his shirt as she quietly buried her face into his chest, breathing in and growing attached to his familiar scent.Tony tightened his grip on her as they made their way through the green boulevard and toward the apartment lobby. They then ran into an anxious Estelle, who had been waiting outside the building.Estelle had been feeling uneasy ever since she saw Kris earlier that afternoon. After she found out that Myra was going to meet up with Thomas for dinner at Zion Club, she had cajoled Shawn into going as well.When Shawn called Estelle earlier to inform her of what had happened, she had wanted to go up to Kris and give her a good beating.It
Standing before love He isn’t incompetent
However, just because Myra could not strike against Kris now, it did not mean that she never would. Myra did not see the need to back down after the other girl had provoked her.A searing pain drew her from her thoughts. She hissed in protest and looked up to meet Tony’s dark gaze. His orbs were a dark, depthless ocean that was devoid of emotion. The pain ebbed away just as quickly and he softened as he tended to her wound.“You don’t have to bother yourself with this anymore. Just leave everything else to me.” He sounded cool and distant, like he was trying to suppress his anger. Nonetheless, his words warmed her.Myra watched as he fumbled slightly to treat the wound on her arm. For once, he wasn’t his usual graceful self. Abruptly, she reached out and wrapped an arm around his lean waist, murmuring, “I think it’s time we go public with our relationship, Tony.”She no longer wanted to brood over or consider what could happen if she disclosed her relationship with him. To hell with t
Standing before love Remember not to!
Rachel tried to calm Cameron down while winking at her daughter.When Kris received her mother’s hint, she bit on her lips while her eyes turned red, as if she was forcing her tears back.“Dad, what I did today was truly reckless, but it was Thomas who begged me to do it at first. He said that he has admired Myra for a long time, so he hoped that I could help him get closer to her. Also, I have always been afraid of her snatching the shares of the Stark Group from your hands through Tony’s support. After all, we all clearly know her ambitions. With that in mind, I did all of this for you, Dad…”“For me?” Cameron’s face grew colder as his eyes were filled with disdain. “You think I don’t know what you are actually thinking of? Kris, I’m happy that you don’t want your sister to get the shares of the Stark Group, but don’t forget that she is still my daughter—no matter how much you hate her. She is your own sister! How could you do something like this to hurt her? If you are able to plot
Standing before love I just can’t sleep
At that moment, Tony’s thin lips looked as though they had some sort of magical power that made it irresistible for Myra to softly kiss him. One of her hands also went up to his face and reached out for his narrow brows before gently caressing them.Suddenly, her tender hand was completely engulfed by a big, dashing hand.Before she had the chance to react, her whole body was suddenly carried and laid next to the man.The narrow eyes which were closed earlier now stared into her terrified eyes.“Myra, did you just do that on purpose…”The man’s voice was a little husky because he had just woken up.Thinking about how she secretly kissed him while he was sleeping soundly earlier, Myra’s entire face instantly flushed!“Tony, you were already awake…” She struggled to break free from the man in front of her, but as soon as she moved, she was immediately pulled back by his enormous hand.He gave her a quick kiss on the lips and murmured, “I had woken up a long time ago. I just couldn’t sle
Standing before love Tilly little secret
Upon hearing Myra’s words, Tilly immediately shook her head. “Miss Stark, it has nothing to do with you. It’s all because of that perverted Mr. Hughes. How could we have known that he would do such a thing to us?”At this point, Tilly’s eyes were filled with mixed emotions.Myra knew the real mastermind behind all this, but she did not want Tilly to be involved in it any longer, so she comforted her instead.When Tilly turned and left the office, Myra suddenly noticed a few tiny red marks on the back of her neck. She was no longer the girl that was oblivious to the intimacy between men and women, so she knew that the red marks…Immediately, she was startled as Tilly had disappeared from her office door.Today, Kris was forced by Cameron and Rachel to come to work in the office; otherwise, judging from her arrogance and pride, she would never turn up at work with a swollen face.The two slaps that Cameron gave her last night carried its weight. Even though Kris had already applied some
