Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

As they walked out of the hut, they were greeted with the sight of all of the rioting workers being restrained by the armed police. While the workers were all huddled up in a spot, the team leader of the police force frowned when he saw the girl in Tony’s arms. “Director Hart, she’s supposed to go to the station to give a statement…” he muttered carefully. But before he could finish his sentence, Tony threw him an icy glare that silenced him immediately.

“Officer Wayne, we have another witness here; she can follow you back to the station if you need a statement.” Leo hastily spoke up. Wayne nodded. “All right, that’s great.”

Leo noticed how Myra seemed to be trembling in Tony’s arms, so he took his own coat off to cover her with it. However, before he could do so, Tony took a step away from him to avoid Leo’s coat. Leo scratched his nose awkwardly. Well, at least I feel relieved now that everything’s over, he thought to himself. After he had gotten off the call with Myra earlier, Leo was panicking as he speedily contacted Tony to inform him about it. God knows what else would’ve happened if we had arrived slightly later. After all, Myra doesn’t know about the Chase Group’s internal affairs now, and she doesn’t know… Leo frowned as he looked up to steal a glance at the foreman, Chris. A steely glint surfaced in his eyes before he turned and followed along behind Tony’s tracks.

“Director Hart. These people…” Leo probed cautiously.

“Do what you have to do. Do you still need me to teach you what to do?” Tony spoke of the workers as if he was talking about dead men; Leo felt chills running down his spine as he heard Tony’s deep voice. However, Leo only nodded his head solemnly. “I got it.” His footsteps came to a halt as he no longer left along with Tony.

Meanwhile, Tony continued to stare at the woman in his arms. I should have just completely abandoned her after that night. Since she has made it clear that she doesn’t like me, why do I still continue to show up by her side? It’s almost as if I’m just asking for myself to be shamed. However, I simply couldn’t control myself when I received Leo’s call earlier. I was so tempted to just annihilate Lyla right there and then! Tony tightened his grip on Myra. Good job, Lyla…

Although Tony didn’t seem to reveal any emotion after he heard what Philip had said, Philip could still sense the burning rage within the other man. “Could it be… Did Sean abuse her after he found out about things between the two of you?” Philip made a guess, but Tony simply scoffed without responding to his question. “Tell Elliot that things at Hilliville

long slumber. Her entire body felt like it had been run over by a car, for all her bones and joints were aching terribly. She had no idea where she was when she first opened her eyes.

few steps closer to her. Myra clenched her fists tightly as she felt at a complete loss for words then. She only managed to spit two words out as she parted her lips. “Thank you…” I don’t know if I would’ve survived until I got help if Tony hadn’t rushed over to me yesterday. I’ll never forget that dark, terrifying experience for the rest
