Standing before love I have to settle scores with him
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
Last Updated : 2024-08-16Standing before love She would be old
It was only when Lyla was left alone in the room that she slumped into the couch, as if she had lost all her strength.All she could say was that she was truly tempted by Tony’s words.Indeed, she had the intention to marry into the Hart Family, but she was also well aware that without this man’s protection, it would be a fantasy to be able to even cast a glance at the entrance of the Hart Residence, let alone entering the house.She was no longer young and she would be old in a few more years. By then, she would lose her beauty that she had been using to capture men’s heart. Besides, there was also the man in the United States. If she couldn’t rely on Sean, how was she going to guarantee her own safety?Sean’s eyes were filled with hatred when he looked at me today. Yet, I have a feeling that he still loves me deep in his heart. Otherwise, why has there been so much news about his relationships and affairs in the past two years? And all the women from the news look so similar to me.

Standing before love Search for an answer
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
Standing before love Candidate chosen
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
Standing before love A different kind of blind
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,
Standing before love Dare to challenge
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
