Standing before love Director hart confession
Lyla’s back was drenched with cold sweat as an unprecedented panic and fear filled her chest.“Sean, I am not sure what you heard and from whom… But, you have seen the trade secrets of the Hilliville project from Chase Group. The video recording is concrete proof that Myra stole it. Besides, I do not understand what is happening with Chase Group’s Hilliville. I merely provided a client for Chase Group to solve their emergency matters. Why are you making it sound like I have done something horrible to the Chase Group?!” The more she talked about it, the more convincing she sounded.This is especially true for the Chase Group’s HIllville project. During that time, there happened to be an issue with the Chase Group’s funding chain. If I hadn’t provided them with clients at that time, Chase Group wouldn’t have been out of crisis! I know the reason why Sean is investigating me. It is all thanks to Myra! He rarely comes home nowadays and it is usually in the middle of the night even if he r

“Mrs. Walton, you did yell for somebody to stop, but you did not mention anybody’s name. Besides, it didn’t sound like how an elder would behave toward the younger generation. Well, excuse me, I wasn’t aware that you were asking me to hold up, Mrs. Walton,” Myra retorted calmly without backing down.Shelly was rendered speechless by Maya’s response and her chest started to heave in anger.“Well, don’t you have a smart mouth? However, I heard that your mother passed away early in life, so I suppose this is expected since she couldn’t educate you well. In any case, as this is a banquet by the Hart Family, you should take note of your behavior, Miss Stark. Please know your place because things will turn ugly if you were to stir up trouble.”Myra hated it whenever others mentioned her mother in such a condescending tone. Hence, her expression darkened immediately. She had been in a foul mood from the beginning and her mind was now in a mess, so she answered harshly, “My mother passed away

“Ouch, my back, it’s killing me…” Shelly glared at Myra, who was in Tony’s arms. “All thanks to that woman! I wouldn’t have fallen if it weren’t for her! Her acting is rather convincing now! Did you fall and hurt yourself? Why are you kicking up a fuss after your fall since you are so young?! I have never seen a more pretentious woman than you!”“Mrs. Walton, did you hear what the madam said just now? Myra wouldn’t have fallen if you hadn’t dragged her down with you. How could you possibly blame her for your fall?” Upon hearing Shelly’s accusation, Elliot, who was right behind Tony, sneered. He was looking at her in disdain.Gideon scowled at Elliot. “Young Master Elliot, my mom did not do it on purpose. The lights are dim and there are many people around us. She must have been mistaken.”Elliot was about to refute him when Tony interrupted in a deep, stern voice, “Elliot, get Philip to the second floor.”Tony had a grave expression as there was worry in his eyes while he focused on M

The word ‘divorce’ had slipped through Sean’s lips once again. Never in his wildest dreams did he expect himself to divorce the woman in front of him—the one whom he had once been madly in love with. As my dreams gradually come true, I have to admit that my feelings have changed and that I have fallen in love with Myra. I have no idea when it started, but I have been suffering since Myra isn’t mine. Somehow, I have started to feel excited about the slightest news about her. Besides, I would even lose sleep over the small things involving her. However, I am also not sure when it started, but I no longer harbor the feelings I once had for the woman now standing in front of me.“Divorce?!” Lyla’s body stiffened straight away. It was such a simple term, but it felt like thousands of poisonous arrows piercing her heart. She stumbled a couple of steps backward while staring in disbelief at the man who was in front of her. “Sean, what did you say?”Nevertheless, she shook her head violently

“Lending me a hand?” Sean raised his voice and mocked. “Isn’t it the same to abort the child with drugs as opposed to her having the abortion at the hospital? Lyla, I finally see what kind of woman you are. Did you believe that I would forgive everything you have done just because you’ve explained yourself?” He clenched his fists. “If you are still who you are, things might have worked out between us, but we are no longer the same people as before.”“What do you mean that I am no longer who I used to be?!” Lyla started sobbing and cackling simultaneously. “How would you know that I was not like this?! Sean, when a man no longer loves or spoils a woman, she would be left with no choice, but to do whatever she can to get what she wants. The ‘me’ from the past is just the same as who I am right now. The only difference is that once upon a time, I used to have your love, so I could assume the role of a simple princess. However, you are now in love with someone else! You claim that you see

Upon listening to what happened inside the room, his expression soured. After that, he made a sarcastic remark to those around him, “Maybe the young woman deliberately bribed the doctor so that she can marry into the Hart Family. Well, from my point of view, it’s best to get an examination in the hospital. Otherwise, they might be fooled by a young woman working with a doctor and she would end up with the Hart Family!” If Myra is pregnant, it will be even more difficult for Gemma to be married to Tony. In that case, the series of plans that the Walton Family have will not proceed smoothly!Edward may not have recognized Philip, but everybody from Bradfort City knew of him. Therefore, upon hearing Edward’s sarcastic comments, they retorted in disdain, “If she is able to bribe Young Master Philip, it means that she definitely has the ability to marry into the Hart Family.”Upon hearing that someone went against him, Edward felt unhappy and was about to refute the person when he saw anot

However, when Gemma learned downstairs that Myra was pregnant, her face immediately darkened. “That b*tch doesn’t deserve to be pregnant with Tony’s child!” She squeezed the wine glass so tightly that it almost broke.She had already been furious that night when she saw the lovey-dovey interactions between Myra and Tony. If Gideon had not held her back, she wanted to run to Myra and give her a good slap so that Myra would not dare to be ostentatious.“Gemma, you must understand that it will be more difficult for you to marry into the Hart Family once Myra is pregnant with Tony’s child.” Gideon’s face also became sullen.“You don’t have to tell me that, Gideon. I understand the implications well!” With that, Gemma placed the wine glass on a small table next to the swimming pool as a savage expression flashed in her eyes. “What do you think is the possibility of that b*tch having a miscarriage?”Before he could reply, Kris, who had been silent all this while, suddenly snorted in laughte

However, Sasha was in a state of disarray at this moment. The car had really knocked her, so she shakily hobbled over to Myra. Apart from that, she even had an injury on her face.Her beautiful image was gone—not only were her clothes wrinkled, her hair was disheveled and there was a panicked expression on her face.As soon as she grabbed onto the window, she cried desperately in front of Myra. “Myra, I’m sorry. I’ve really learned my lessons this time around. I shouldn’t have provoked you at the hotel and sent your video to Gemma. I was too blinded by my own desires and forgot about Director Hart’s warning. I really learned my lessons and I beg you to ask Director Hart to take a pity on us! If this continues, the Hay Group is going to be destroyed!”Sasha sobbed pathetically. Back when Tony warned me, I should have listened to him obediently. Otherwise, this would not happen—after spending so much effort to pull Wallace Enterprise over to our side, everything is ruined in an instant.

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
