Standing before love I will ask mom
Mrs. Fletcher reluctantly fetched a chair, whereas Myra turned to Kris. “Can you please scoot over to make some space?” Myra murmured and smiled sweetly.Rachel and Kris acted like loving family members in front of me for such a long time just now. If Kris were to refuse to make space, she would be humiliating both Rachel and herself.Under Rachel’s scrutiny, Kris had no choice but to shift her chair reluctantly.Myra placed the chair properly. Just as she was seated, she conveniently pinched Tony’s thigh hard while hissing at him quietly, “You’re trouble!”It was barely a whisper so others might not have heard her, but Tony heard her clearly.His lips curled into a faint smile.Myra fingers ached from pinching him and she was just about to shift her hand away when a large, warm and dry hand grabbed hers. She wasn’t sure if Tony was doing it on purpose, but his calloused left fingers rubbed against Myra’s. He continued the friction while pressing her hand against his warm thigh.An el

Rachel pursed her lips, thinking that something seemed off. However, she had no time to think about it at this moment.Tony had already gone to Cameron’s study because the latter wanted to speak to him. Now that Tony and Myra were a couple, it had definitely placed Rachel and Kris at a disadvantage. Nevertheless, it was better for them that Tony came here today, since it would not hurt to let him witness Myra’s cruelty earlier.With a dark look in her eyes, Rachel caressed her belly and murmured, “Baby, please be useful. These are the final two things you can do for Mommy.”Myra sat on the couch to watch some television, so she did not go back to her room immediately.Kris was busy with the preparation in the kitchen for a long time. After that, she served a glass of lemonade and two cups of coffee. When she walked past Myra, she even put the lemonade on the table in front of her. “Sis, I know you like lemonade so I made this for you.”Myra merely smiled and looked at the other two cu

“Kiddo, I’m just worried that my choice doesn’t suit your taste.” Seeing that Myra deliberately kept a distance from her, Rachel flashed a warm smile and walked to Myra strenuously. “Perhaps you might return here more often in the future. Of course, it would be best if you stay here altogether. No matter what, I just want to make your stay comfortable.”With that, Rachel walked over to Myra, but the latter immediately became vigilant as she retreated down the staircase. “Since you’re tired, Rachel, you don’t have to walk down the stairs. I’ll come up.”Even though Myra said so, she had no intention of really walking upstairs. On the contrary, she descended a few steps. Sweat formed in her palms, and she had a serious and grim expression on her face as she prepared herself to defend any moves they might make.Seeing that Myra was retreating, Rachel knew that if she missed this opportunity, she would not have another in the future.Thinking of the 5% of shares and the fact that Tony was

“What do you mean by ‘again’?” When Myra, who was being held in Tony’s embrace, heard Kris’ accusation, her face immediately turned colder. “You and Rachel were the ones who ganged up on me and wanted to push the blame on me! This is not your first time doing this, after all. But this time around, everyone else clearly saw that you were the one who landed on your mother. How could you blame me for this? Do you really think that I’m someone you can trample on, Kris?”“Nonsense!” Kris’ eyes became red. “You’re the one who is responsible for this! If you didn’t push me, how could I have landed on Mom? You are such an evil woman! It’s all your fault and I bet Dad will never let you off the hook!”With that, Kris shifted her gaze to Tony, who was holding Myra. Tears welled up in her eyes and streamed down her face immediately. “Tony, I was just planning to serve you coffee just now, yet Myra is so angry at me that she pushed me to hurt my mom and little brother. I believe that you have see

With that, Kris was so furious that she wanted to throw her phone onto the ground, but she managed to suppress that impulse.When they got out of the car later, Tony held Myra into the hospital to treat her ankle without even sparing a second glance at Kris.It’s just an ankle injury but they are making a mountain out of a molehill!After remembering Rachel’s current situation, Kris had a dark look in her eyes.Holding Myra in his arms, Tony brought her to the medical office immediately.The doctor treated her injury in no time and reminded her not to perform any vigorous sports for the time being.Initially, Tony wanted to leave the hospital with Myra immediately.Based on what they had just come to know, Rachel would definitely not be able to keep the baby anymore, but this was none of their concern at this point. However, Myra grabbed Tony’s arm and asked him to accompany her to wait outside the operation theatre.Cameron did not look good at all; he looked as if he had been holdin
Last Updated : 2024-09-23Standing before love Sorry for involving you
At this moment, an eerie silence fell on the long corridor outside the operation room. Doctor Owen’s head was so low that it seemed like she wanted to bury herself in the ground. She clenched her fists, not daring to look at Cameron as she spoke. “Mrs. Stark threatened me to keep this a secret. Actually, this can’t stay a secret for too long but I thought she was agitated by this news, so she refused to accept it. I have no idea that she would suddenly suffer a miscarriage. I’m so sorry about this, Mr. Stark.”After all, she’s not young anymore. I bet she really wanted a son.Doctor Owen clenched her fists so tightly that her fingernails dug into her palms.“No—you liar! Did Myra bribe you? Why would you slander my mom? You’re a liar!” Kris wanted to charge toward Doctor Owen but the door of the operation theatre opened with a loud bang. A nurse came out angrily and scolded them in a low voice, “What is wrong with you guys? Do you still want the patient to stay safe?”Cameron’s expres
Last Updated : 2024-09-25Standing before love It’s your time to take action
As soon as they got into the car, Myra turned around to ask Tony, who was focused on his driving, “You already knew that there were problems with Rachel’s pregnancy?”By the time they were done with all the drama, it was already 1 in the morning. The colorful neon lights shone around them, signaling that the nightlife in Bradfort City had just begun.Under the shadows cast by the neon lights outside, Tony’s handsome face looked seductive and alluring. His strong jawline and long eyebrows made him look strict when his eyes were narrowed, but his thin lips were arched into a half-smirk. “In the beginning, I didn’t know about it.”“When did you find out, then?” Myra fiddled with his right hand that was not on the steering wheel.Tony turned his hand over and held hers as he rubbed his thumb on the back of her hand. His eyes narrowing, he muttered, “When Kris stopped us and accused you.”Initially, Tony was not sure and he was merely guessing. Through the information Elliot provided him,

Last time around, because he believed some rumors from others, he mistakenly put Myra into jail. Not only did he change her jail’s location, he also did not treat her well. In the end, that incident almost made him lose his job.It was also during that time that he saw the man who had almost become a myth in Bradfort City treat Myra delicately. In the end, the all powerful Tony Hart had succumbed to love as well. However, Captain Fowler did not expect that Myra, who was a divorcee, would be able to successfully capture Tony’s heart. This time around, they came to the Stark Group because they knew what plans Thomas had for Myra that caused him to be in such a situation. If it weren’t for that, Captain Fowler had no plans to come here personally.Just as he promised, the three of them checked through the documents quickly, as though they were merely following the procedures.Half an hour later, Myra sent the three of them to the elevator.After they entered the elevator, Captain Fowler

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
Standing before love Matthia has a personality
Myra and Tony left the bridal shop in low spirits after spending a whole day trying on wedding dresses, for they were unable to find one that suited Myra. As for the remaining matters, Tony had already made the arrangements. After all, no one said that a wedding could only accommodate one wedding dress.Tony had already entrusted his reliable assistant with the task of managing the procedures involved in getting the tailor-made dresses ready. He had faith that his assistant would give him satisfactory results in the end.Having settled the matter with the wedding dress, Myra pondered for a while. She felt that Tony had taken her out to try on wedding dresses for some ulterior motive. She knew that something was wrong, but she just couldn’t put her finger on it. Don’t tell me this is all part of his plan to create a situation where he could openly announce that he wants to get the wedding dress tailor-made overseas.They hadn’t given themselves much time to prepare for the wedding; Ton
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
