Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

As soon as she entered the car, the cool air slightly alleviated the summer heat.

The man in the car leaned against the backseat with his eyes closed. He had a rather wide forehead and a straight nose; although his deep, narrow eyes were shut, it did not hide his handsome features. His physique and facial features made him look like a foreigner, which radiated an aura of elegance in each and every movement of his.

Upon hearing Myra’s words, Tony opened his eyes and he slightly nodded without even shooting her a glance.

However, he suddenly turned to look at her. “How did this happen?” He stretched his long, slender hands and touched her chin, which now showed red terrifying fingerprints.

Tony frowned slightly as his gaze became colder.

Myra was shocked by what she saw. Even though his fingers had only lightly touched her chin, she felt as though she had been scorched and turned away reflexively. “It’s nothing,” she replied in a low voice.

When she turned, her fair neck was revealed and it further emphasized the redness on her chin.

Tony’s eyes reflected his hesitancy about the matter, but the stiffness around his lips revealed his anger at that moment. Even without Myra’s explanation, he could roughly guess what had happened.

Leo merely felt that the temperature in the car had further decreased. Suddenly, he felt the vibration from the phone in his pocket. After he learned what had happened, he quickly stopped the car and went to a nearby pharmacy. When he returned, he had a bag in his hands that he passed to Myra. “Miss Stark, here is some ointment for your injuries. The pharmacist said that it’s quite effective.”

Myra froze before she took the ointment from him. “Thank you, Leo.”

He had been planning to drive Tony to the Hart Residence, which was located in the mansion region of Southern Hill. Since the Chase Residence was also in the same neighborhood, it was considered on the way for them.

Throughout the drive, she felt quite anxious. She had initially expected Tony to ask a lot of questions, but he merely closed his eyes to rest. She was not someone who would take the initiative to start a conversation, so silence fell between them.
