Standing before love I don’t think so
With a heavy weight on her mind, Myra took her cup and went to the break room to get some water. Before she went in, she heard a few women whispering to each other inside.“Do you guys think that video is real? I was at the meeting today. When Miss Walton released that video, Miss Stark simply remained silent. There’s no telling whether this video is real or not!”“Ah! If it’s real, does that mean she really had an affair?”“No! I heard from a friend at Chase Group that while Miss Stark was working with them, she was already hitting on Director Hart in order to get a hold of the Sunny Bay Project! How else did you think Chase Group, a real estate company that started barely two years ago, was able to get Hart Group’s Sunny Bay Project?”“But I think Director Hart treats Miss Stark really well. When I was working extra shifts the other night, it was raining heavily. You should’ve seen how gentle and caring he was when he came to pick Miss Stark up. Before this, I didn’t think Director

Eve was all too familiar with Myra. Even though her face was blurred, her silhouette and status were depicted clearly. How could Eve not know who the woman in the news report was?Because the Chase Family was ripped off by Myra when she and Sean got divorced, Eve’s impression of her turned negative. Nonetheless, it did not stop her from having positive feelings toward her again after finding out about Myra’s present value. In the times when she loathed Lyla, she felt like she could still accept Myra if she and Sean started seeing each other again.Since Eve had been occupied with Elsie’s pregnancy, she did not hear about Myra and Tony’s relationship. As far as she knew, there were rumors surrounding Myra and Tony, or more accurately, of Myra and many other men.In her opinion, as long as Sean persuaded Myra, she would be willing to return to the Chase Family because of how much she loved Sean. Therefore, the scandal that broke out in the entertainment news was like a slap in the face

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

Standing before love Proposals
(Final Chapter)However, before Myra could digest the incidents, a knock on the door emerged again. Zayne’s eyes lit up at once as he reckoned it was most probably Jason this time.Sure enough, Jason appeared in front of them with injuries. Leon found Jason rather unfamiliar as it was natural for one to not remember a driver’s appearance.“You’re finally here, Jason!” Heather exclaimed in surprise upon seeing him as she had waited for him for a long time.“Zayne Lee.” With a cold look, Jason walked up to Zayne and tilted his head to look at him. “Stop acting. I know you’re not injured.”Zayne stared at Jason awkwardly as he had not expected to be seen through by Jason so easily. Meanwhile, the others glanced toward Zayne in shock.“Congratulations. Your plan to lure the enemy out has succeeded. Now, I can tell you with certainty that the mastermind behind all these is Caleb Moriarty.” It was very rare for Jason to spit out such a long sentence.The others were not surprised upon heari
Standing before love Weird things happened
Since the situation had escalated to this point, they could only fight to their death, and Matthias was prepared for the battle. Even though the opponent was one of the top killers in the world, it was not an issue at all for Matthias to protect himself. However, it would be an arduous task to protect Zayne, the patient, at the same time.Matthias decided to be the vanguard and asked Leon to stay by Zayne’s side while he guarded the door vigilantly. They didn’t know when the killer would discover them, so Matthias had to guard the door well.Meanwhile, Heather kept increasing the fare’s price to the driver, hoping that she would be able to find Jason as soon as possible. Looking at the GPS, she became more flustered when they got closer to the destination. She was perturbed as the truth was about to be revealed, and she was all the more anxious at the thought of the critical situation in the hospital. Even if she successfully found Jason now, there was not enough time to rush back to
Standing before love A waiting game
Since when has Leon become this caring? Lying on the bed, Zayne really wished to turn to lie on his side. Due to the anesthetics, he didn’t feel much pain; he just felt uncomfortable because he couldn’t stretch his body. Nevertheless, he wasn’t hoping for anyone to understand his feelings at this moment. He attempted to move his body as he was worried if he had actually become handicapped.Leon glanced at Zayne in puzzlement, wondering what he was struggling about. Zayne didn’t seem to be in a good situation, but Leon had no idea how to help him. The two of them faced each other while Leon stared at Zayne with an inquiring look, but he still couldn’t understand what was on Zayne’s mind.It was only until Matthias came into the ward did the standstill between the two come to an end. Leon stood up and stared at Matthias. At that moment, all three of them were at a loss for words as an awkward atmosphere arose in the ward.Alas, Leon spoke up and broke the ice. “I’m going to buy oranges
Standing before love The patient should be given the most respect
The atmosphere surrounding the two men was extremely intense. Matthias didn’t want to cause more trouble at this moment, so he took a few steps back and attempted to keep a distance away from Leon.Leon understood Matthias’ intention. He smirked and said in a sarcastic manner, “President Locke, I heard you’ve been keeping a woman recently.”Matthias freaked out upon hearing his words. So Leon’s actually mad because of this. Matthias couldn’t think of an appropriate explanation. Staring at Leon’s eyes, he knew Leon might not buy his words even if he explained them to him.“You actually believed those rumors?” Matthias said justly. He didn’t intend to explain the details to Leon, nor did he want to be maligned.“I’ve seen you and the woman together with my own eyes.” If it wasn’t that Leon had seen it himself, he wouldn’t be this suspicious of Matthias.Matthias looked at Leon in resignation. It seems like he’s really concerned about Heather’s matters—he’s still bothered about these thi
Standing before love An intense atmosphere
Heather walked toward the main road while pondering. Judging by the traffic of the cars that were passing by on the busy road, she had a feeling it would be very hard for her to get a cab at this moment. Hence, she was starting to get a headache just by staring at the noisy street.She reckoned no drivers would be willing to accept a booking at times like these but she still decided to give it a try—only now did she suddenly realize the importance of owning a car.But alas, the fastest way she could think of was to increase the offer price. She believed there would definitely be drivers who were willing to accept her booking as long as she offered a price that was high enough. However, she worried that the cabs were too far away.True enough, when Heather opened the ride-hailing app, there were no drivers around the area. She wished she could get a driver by offering a huge stack of money, but sometimes, there were situations that even money couldn’t solve.When a driver finally accep
Standing before love A sudden accident
Ever since he stepped foot in Bradfort City, Zayne had nothing but problem after problem piled on his plate. This time, he looked for trouble himself. Matthias’ situation was already far beyond what Zayne could handle, and Jason knew that the latter was barely holding on.After Matthias had left, Jason descended into worry. He looked at Zayne, his face a little on the pale side. Neither brother had managed to reach an agreement. Jason completely did not approve of what Zayne was doing, and the conflict between them could blow up at any moment.The atmosphere was loaded like a powder keg. Both men’s expressions were tense, and it seemed as though things would break down the next second. Jason moved and took a step forward, whereas Zayne curled his hands into fists. The situation was both awkward and tense.Jason continued to march forward. Zayne could find no reason to make him stay, so he helplessly watched as Jason left the room. He looked at his younger brother, his lips faintly qui
Standing before love Someone who creates problems
Anger was still anger in the end, and Heather wasn’t someone who would cling to someone unreasonably either. She knew that Leon wouldn’t have hung up on her so easily, and it seemed that he was extremely tired.After her call with Leon ended, Zayne texted her. She played the video clip that he had sent to her, but she wasn’t sure how to react to it. Not only that, Heather didn’t know how he had managed to get his hands on this firsthand information—the venue in the clip was where the Locke Group’s board of directors were currently at.Heather took notice of Matthias in an instant. When she saw him there all by himself, she suddenly felt that he needed to be protected as well. Sometimes, she really couldn’t get a handle on him as her heart ached for Matthias.However, Heather couldn’t bring herself to examine her conscience even though she could sense that Matthias was under a lot of pressure. She had only watched a few seconds of the video clip, but her heartstrings were already being
Standing before love Two unfortunates
At that moment, any further exchange would simply be pointless. The day had barely started, yet it was already so disastrous. The next hours would be even more so.The more Zayne wanted her to admit it, the more resistant she was to do so. With a stiff face, she responded, “It’s his personal affairs. Why should I care?”When he heard her bold words, Zayne had a hard time holding back his laugh, for he was astounded by how persistent she was. Heather was so reluctant to admit it, so he didn’t want to pursue the matter any further. Since she felt that way, he shall have it her way.“What’s your plan today?” As he went off on a tangent, Zayne started to chatter casually. Heather felt that there had to be an underlying meaning behind his words, so she shot him a deadly glare.On the other hand, Zayne stared at her calmly, and he thought her petite look was extremely adorable. She must be dwelling on nonsense again!“Other than locking myself in here, what else can I possibly plan for? I l
Standing before love Start a disastrous day
In the freezing night, Matthias stared at the mansion in front of him with not a trace of anger. Since it belonged to the Lockes, it will no longer mean anything to him from now on. Should I say goodbye?Ever since Evan left, the residence had been especially quiet at night. Having lost his attachment to the mansion, he coldly gazed at the building as if the entire area only had one residence.Despite his desire to walk in, he stopped himself outside the home. After all, he was now truly alone after pushing everyone else away.At this moment, he sensed a fragrance of blossoms wafting in the air. He tried to locate the source but to no avail. Surprisingly, such a subtle aroma somehow matched the winter so well. As he took in the scent, he was reminded of the countless incidents, wondering when they would finally end.What surprised him was the fact that the family head had yet to look for him since he left the Locke Group, and that made him feel rather peaceful as the head seemed to ha
