Standing before love Let me introduce my fiance
In the beginning, Gemma was strongly against it because Tony was the one she liked. Even if she couldn’t stand in front of him in her current state, she didn’t want to accept another man just like that. Subconsciously, she hadn’t lost her arrogance, and she didn’t think that any other man was good enough for her except Tony.However, Edward, Samuel, and Gideon kept assuring her and promised that this was only temporary so that their family could benefit from it. Once their family had gained a foothold in Bradfort, she could do whatever she pleased. After going through a series of events previously, Gemma had matured a lot, and when she heard about how a situation could benefit her family, she gritted her teeth and agreed to it.Her face had already been through surgery once, and the two most terrifying scars had been restored the best it could. Initially, Edward wanted the heir to the Lincoln Family, Ernie, to visit Gemma directly in the hospital, but she was bored to tears in the hos

“It’s alright. I can understand that Tony didn’t tell you beforehand because he wants to surprise you,” Jean-Jacques said in his prominent French accent as he smiled graciously. “Please take a seat. By the way, I know that you’re pregnant, so I ordered a glass of milk for you, and a cup of coffee for Tony.”Right after he said that, the waiter came in and placed the milk and coffee in front of Myra and Tony respectively.Smirking, Tony said, “You’re rather attentive toward my fiancée. So how are things going with what I asked of you?”Looking at the both of them in confusion, Myra then saw Jean-Jacques giving herself a friendly smile as he said, “Of course I’ll make it a priority to finish your request first. Look, this is the diamond bracelet I personally crafted for Miss Stark.”From a bag next to him, Jean-Jacques took out a red velvet box as Tony raised his brows. With a grin, he passed the box to Myra and explained, “Well, this is my personal gift for you, Miss Stark. I’m aware t

When Gemma heard Sean’s words, she was a little worried and afraid, but it fueled her hatred and envy even more. She couldn’t understand what was so amazing about Myra that made the guys so smitten with her; even Ernie, who had just seen her, also complimented her! Just what is so amazing about Myra to these men?“You’re so devoted, Director Chase. Miss Stark is about to get married, but you still can’t get her off your mind,” Gemma said with a sarcastic smirk. Turning to Myra, she continued, “You’ve planned everything so well, Miss Stark. While you’re dating one man, you also keep another hooked on the line. Are you keeping a spare man for yourself this way so that you’ll have a good place to turn to in case Tony dumps you one day?”“Stop attacking others like a mad dog, Gemma,” Myra snapped. When she recovered her composure, she quickly stood up and got out of Sean’s embrace, then she kept a distance from him, leaving him to stare gloomily at his empty arms for a second.“A mad dog?

“Can’t you cover that up, Tony?!”His eyes were dark and brooding when he stepped outside; they looked clouded and dull from being enclosed in the shower for an extended period of time. Along with that, a complicated smile tugged at the corner of his lips…“Didn’t I give you the towel? Do you expect me to cover up with my dirty clothes?” The man smirked lazily at Myra.Myra’s face turned a deeper red and she was about to turn around; she didn’t notice the hint of slyness that flashed across the man’s eyes when he removed the towel from his face. Immediately after that, he swiftly extended his hand and grabbed the woman, shoving her back into the shower with him. He then slammed the door shut behind them in the process and pressed Myra’s back against the closed door.The air was hot and humid with residual steam in the bathroom. Meanwhile, the temperature seemed to be rising rapidly—it was getting hotter and hotter with every passing second.She bit down on her lip as she raised her he

Kris knew that her only choice right now was to keep Hayden by her side. Although Hayden wasn’t the successor of the Fuller Family, she could tell that he was pretty well-off from all the gifts that he had given her in the past. Even if he only owned a tiny portion of his family’s assets, he was already living a much more comfortable life compared to her at the moment. After what happened with the Walton Family, she knew that her reputation had hit rock bottom—she didn’t even need to ask!At the thought of that, Kris let out a silent curse as she blamed it all on Gideon. Did he think that Kris wasn’t aware of his side chicks during their relationship?! Yet, he was so heartless when she got into trouble!“The doctor says that you’ll be discharged today, Kris.” Hayden had just returned to the ward; as usual, he was carrying multiple bags of fresh fruits and flowers.Kris bit her lip instinctively at the sight of him. Truthfully, Hayden was a very good man to her; he was extremely caring

“I guess it’s true, then! How capable of you to be greedy for someone else whilst in bed with another, Kris! It’s not all bad, though—Young Master Fuller can finally put his back-up plan to good use now,” Hayden sneered as he laughed wickedly. Along with that, the look in his eyes became audacious and belittling as he stared at Hayden. “Are you sure you want to be with a woman as filthy as her?! Isn’t it disgusting to you?”“You’ve crossed the line, Young Master Walton,” said Hayden emotionlessly. The next moment, he took Kris’ hand and turned to leave the restaurant.His strides were long and swift and Kris struggled to keep up to him. When she finally did, though, she almost slipped and fell down.“Let me go, Hayden! You’re hurting my wrist!” Kris was a little pale as she tried to follow close behind.However, Hayden didn’t seem to have heard her cries. When they finally arrived at the car, he opened the door and practically shoved her onto the seat carelessly before shutting the do

Sean knitted his good-looking brows with a frosty look in his eyes. “Tony doesn’t deserve to be together with you if he gets angry at you over this!”Myra was so angered by his reply that she almost laughed. Not wanting to waste her breath talking to the man before her anymore, she beckoned to the security guard who kept craning his neck and looking in their direction. Then, she turned to look at Sean and said, “Whether or not he deserves to be together with me is my call to make. Besides, there’s one thing that I’m very clear about—you don’t deserve to be together with me!”By the time she finished her sentence, the security guard had come to her side. He then asked respectfully, “What can I do for you, Miss Stark?”Myra’s eyes swept coldly past the man before her, and his expression turned ghastly. “Nothing. This gentleman might harass me, so please help me to keep an eye on him,” she said. Then, as the security guard eyed Sean with hostility, she walked toward the Hart Group’s buil

When he thought of Olivia, his daughter, Cameron couldn’t help but think of that woman. That woman and his daughter were his real family; the two of them were the only ones who stayed with him and gave him happiness without any complaints regardless of his financial situation!Cameron clenched his fists tightly before he turned around. Just as he was about to leave, Myra—who could no longer hold back the anger within her—questioned the man before her and asked, “Did you ever love my Mom when you were together with her?”Myra couldn’t believe that the man in front of her—this selfish, treacherous, deceitful, and narrow-minded man—was actually the person her mother used to love. Not only did he have an extramarital affair with Rachel, he had also been keeping a mistress behind everyone’s back and even fathered a daughter! Neither Rachel nor her mother was the woman he loved the most, for he dealt with these two women while secretly building another home of his own. Just how filthy has h

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
