Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

Cameron tried reaching Myra multiple times on the phone lately, but she did not answer a single one of his calls. It wasn’t that she did not want to return to the Stark Group, but she wanted to make a statement before she did.

Tony’s eyes narrowed as he stared at Myra. “Why do we have to wait for a bit before getting out of the car?”

For some reason, she felt rather guilty from the way he was looking at her. But the thought of Kris made her frown and lower her head. “I don’t want to be in the same elevator as that person.”

He looked back in the direction of the elevator. The doors had closed slowly, and the elevator was heading up.

Because he had done a thorough check on her before, he was aware of Kris’ identity and perhaps even some of the relatives on Myra’s paternal and maternal side of the family that she might not have known herself. Seeing the look on her face, something flickered across his eyes. He held her waist and left a reassuring kiss on her forehead. “Let’s wait for a bit before going up then.”

As soon as he said that, she snapped her head up and pressed, “Why don’t you go back to your apartment tonight?”

In an instant, the tender expression he had on his face a second ago turned dark. Tightening his arm around her thin waist, he seethed, “Myra, sometimes, I really just want to strangle you!”

She was clearly the one who made those flirtatious suggestions in the car earlier. ‘…you can do anything you want when we’re home…’

But now that they were at her apartment, she was telling him to just go home.

Feeling guilty, she cupped his face in her hands and kissed his cheeks. She coaxed, “Tony. Just this once, okay? That woman is my half-sister. I know her very well. If she goes up there and doesn’t see me, she’ll keep waiting until I show up.”

“What does that have to do with me going to your place?” He was not swayed by her coaxing and simply looked at her coldly. She said she didn’t want to be in the same elevator as that woman, but really, she’s just afraid of letting that woman see the both of us together!
