Standing before love I heard on this feeling’s
Sebastian did not expect to get fooled by both of them.That video in the news report tarnished the Hart Family’s reputation.At his age, he had gone through numerous hardships, but this was the first time someone had spoken ill of him. It was the first time he looked so enraged after going out fishing today.…When Tony returned to the apartment, he did not find Myra there.He also called the villa, but the caretaker did not see Myra return.After he hung up the phone, his expression sank even further. There’s no way her phone ran out of battery. She must have switched it off on purpose. But where did she go after switching her phone off? A strange look flickered across his eyes. Turning the car around, he started driving toward the Hart Residence.…“Tell me. Did you develop feelings for him first or did he? My family has always been upright, but something like this happened today. All this time, you had many chances to explain to me, but you chose to stay silent. I’m very disappoin

“I’ve been thinking about this since a few years ago…” Sebastian truly didn’t know if his heart could bear it anymore. His grandson had been pursuing a married woman… Why did this make him feel… angry?!“Do you feel particularly proud right now? Why don’t you tell her ex-husband that you were pursuing his wife when they were still married?” Sebastian was close to breaking his cane. He stared fiercely at his grandson, whom he deemed unworthy. “Tony, there’s no one in the Hart Family who’s nearly as shameless as you!”“So, what do you want?” Tony’s lips were pursed tightly.“What do I want?! I want to break your damned legs!” Sebastian was stunned by Tony’s indifferent tone, and his temper was set off. He walked out from behind his desk and swung his cane at Tony’s legs.“Ahh—” Myra cried out. The sturdy stick really ended up hitting Tony’s legs.Sebastian didn’t expect that his grandson wouldn’t dodge and just let him hit him with his cane. For a moment, he was stunned. Then, Tony’s co

After getting to know about the problems Myra was currently facing, Sean felt even more agitated.He knew that Myra was with Tony now, and if something like this happened, the Hart Family would definitely show disapproval. This made Sean secretly pleased.If the Hart Family forced her to leave Tony because of this, will I have a chance? Tony, that despicable scoundrel. Sean knew Tony must have done something despicable to Myra, and he must have had a purpose, but he couldn’t find any evidence for the time being.He had given Myra a call the other day, but she obviously didn’t believe him, which only worsened his mood.She was no longer the Myra who believed everything he said and relied on him for everything.Earlier, when discussing matters with Cameron, he was obviously absent-minded. After talking for a long time, he said that he had something to do and postponed their meeting to another time.After leaving Cameron’s floor, he immediately went to Myra’s floor to find her.However,

Lyla heard the entire conversation between the two people in the office.From the way Sean defended Myra, she could tell how much he was yearning for her.And Eve’s statement…‘If you don’t like Lyla anymore, then I promise I’ll find you a better woman in the future.’It caused an indescribable sense of bitterness and anger to bloom in Lyla’s heart.Even if she was already aware of Eve’s personality, and even if she had anticipated the predicament she encountered now, imagining it and experiencing it were two completely different things.Lately, she was truly tired, as she had been busy dealing with Eve and his mistress.At the thought of the woman named Elsie being all high and mighty in front of her because she had Eve’s backing, Lyla clenched her fists as hatred washed over her.She was well aware of the reason Eve repeatedly postponed the abortion of Elsie’s baby. She was just reluctant to get rid of the fetus in Elsie’s belly after finding out that it was a boy.Lyla gritted her

However, Sebastian was obviously interpreting her silence as acquiescence.He narrowed his eyes all of a sudden. The men of the Hart Family had similarly slender eyes. Once narrowed, their gaze would instantly appear sharp.“Hmph!” Out of nowhere, he grunted, then placed his hands behind his back. His expression was extremely unpleasant as he asked Myra, “Then, did you agree to her request?”He looked as if he would fight her immediately if Myra answered yes.Myra’s waist suddenly hurt, so she subconsciously shook her head. “No.”“Huh. At least you still know how to act according to the circumstances!” At that, Sebastian’s face eased a whole lot. He turned once more, then said coldly, “At first sight, I knew that Eve wasn’t anyone good. The Chase Family members are all like this. You’ve already left the Chase Family, so you can no longer think about going back to them. Got it?”Being faced with Sebastian’s death stare, Myra let out a helpless ‘yes’.The man next to her seized the oppo

Myra’s chin was still aching. Looking at Tony’s sour expression, she felt aggrieved for some reason. She turned away, not looking at the man in front of her.Without warning, she felt a cool sensation on her chin. She wanted to struggle, but the man grabbed hold of both her hands and placed them on top of her head.“If you don’t behave yourself, then just wait and see how I deal with you!” Tony’s deep voice sounded, and it contained a trace of anger.Myra couldn’t help but feel even more wronged when she heard his angry tone.Is he angry? What’s he angry about?She had already asked him about it just now, but he didn’t seem to hear her.She bit on her lip, then kept her mouth shut and said nothing.At first, his movements around her chin were a bit rough. She was already in pain, so it hurt even more with his rubbing. Myra gritted her teeth but remained silent.Somehow, the hand rubbing her chin gradually grew gentler, and the cooling sensation gradually eased. At once, a lot of the p
Last Updated : 2024-10-07Standing before love I don’t care what people say
“Myra, I may not care about what people say about you, but you do, right?” Tony paused, then looked at the woman in front of him, who looked rather awkward. His expression became considerably gentler. “I know what you’re thinking. You’re afraid my reputation will be ruined, right?”He let out a low chuckle next to her ear, causing his breath to spread all over her neck. She found it ticklish and couldn’t help but shrink her neck back.Leaning over, Tony placed a kiss on her lips. “This society will always be a little harsher on women and a little more tolerant of men. I’m a man, so it doesn’t matter even if they throw dirt my way because it’s true that I already had intentions for you at the time.”Tony’s tone was nonchalant, but Myra squeezed her palms. She shot him a quick glance before looking down. “Anyway, since the situation is like this now, regardless of whether or not the dirt is on me, I won’t be able to wash it off.”It was just as Tony said. This society was always a littl

Richard pondered for a long while as if thinking about what he should say. Sean waited for so long that he was growing impatient, but Richard suddenly said, “Miss Stark has fought for many projects for the Chase Group in the past.”That was indeed the truth.In the beginning, the Chase Group was in a terrible state. After Myra took over the design department, she had been busy and constantly working overtime.She took great pains to obtain more projects for them.She never complained about working overtime or the intensity of her workload. Judging from how hard she worked, no one could believe that she was a dainty young lady from a wealthy family.Obviously, Sean knew that Myra wasn’t the only one who was busy in the beginning because he was too. A lot of times, when he took the stairs down to the underground parking lot, he could see her when he passed by the design department, and she would always be the only one working overtime.She never once complained to him about work, and sh

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
