Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

“Are you saying you want to take away the twenty percent I own of Stark Group?” Myra mocked.

“That’s right!” Kris exclaimed without trying to cover her intentions. Suddenly, she lowered her voice and sounded especially vicious. “Don’t assume that I’m unaware. Aside from the twenty percent you own in Stark Group, you also have fifty percent of Chase Group’s property at Hilliville. And the Ritz Carlton… Myra, I gotta give it to you—you’re certainly amazing! Heck, you even had a deranged and pitiful mother who abandoned you and killed herself in the end!” Once she was done, her gaze became gentle and friendly again. She walked into the elevator calmly and let the doors close.

Myra had her hands clenched tightly by her sides as she glared at the woman beside her. She could never forget the painstaking life her mother had in those last few years up until the day she killed herself in the hospital. Before she could say anything, the elevator doors were stopped from closing again by another hand. It was an attractive hand with slender and thin fingers.

Following the hand up, they were greeted by a handsome face. His features and bone structure were very prominent. Moreover, the black suit he was wearing made him look even taller. He did not have any emotions on his face. In his left hand, he was holding a plastic bag while he had a cigarette in the other. When he looked up, his eyes were as deep and still as an old well. He stood at the entrance of the elevator without saying anything, but he carried a calm and domineering presence that showed he was not an ordinary person at first glance.

After glancing at the two people inside the elevator, he put out his cigarette and threw it in a nearby trash can outside before entering.

Myra struggled to breathe all of a sudden because the man who walked in was the man who had left and returned—Tony.

He was holding the bag of things she bought from the supermarket along with the two pairs of pink men’s underwear that stood out. Was he going up to her place now that he was in the elevator? Even though his actions surprised her, she couldn’t help but glance at Kris who was beside her. She tried her best to suppress the despise she felt for she did not want to have a contorted facial expression.

As soon as Kris looked up, she was immediately attracted to the man in front of her. Not only was he handsome, but this thirty-four or thirty-five-year-old man also had a mannerism and introversion that even Cameron did not possess. She could identify his social status and family background just from the look in his eyes. He’s definitely not someone Sean can compare to! She was only resentful of Old Master Stark’s bias toward Myra at the time and for buying this luxurious apartment for her while she received nothing.
