Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

As soon as Sean saw Myra pause in her tracks, he realized in that moment that she cared a lot for Tony. He couldn’t control the hostility in his eyes as he exclaimed coldly, “Myra Stark, I admit that I’ve made some mistakes and I owe you an apology. However, Lyla never wronged you. In fact, it was you who reneged on your promise resulting in the harm of our unborn child. Besides that, you’ve been bullying her all this while. If you have any resentment or anger, just direct it toward me. Do you find it necessary to treat a pregnant lady so badly?”

“What did I do to her?” Myra lifted her head and looked at him squarely in the eyes. Her expression remained calm as she coldly stared at him. Her expression was devoid of anger and hatred; this was in contrast to what Sean had anticipated. For a moment, he felt quite flustered while standing in front of her.

Without skipping a beat, she repeated her question. “What did I do to her?” At the same time, her gaze fell on Lyla who was being held protectively in Sean’s arms and her eyes were devoid of any warmth.

Lyla froze. She couldn’t quite comprehend the reason but she refused to meet Myra’s gaze. She tried her best to avoid Myra’s eyes and resorted to burying her head into his chest.

As such, Sean had noted Lyla’s terrified look and tightened his grip on her. He looked at Myra quite sternly as he said, “Stop denying it! Lyla would have rolled down this flight of stairs if I didn’t arrive in time. Don’t you know she’s pregnant?!”

“Well, as you said, you made it just in time. This is exactly like all the previous encounters where you always appeared at the perfect timing whenever I’m about to ‘bully’ her. You’d somehow always see my actions and defend Lyla,” Myra said with a sneer on her face.

Lyla’s body stiffened in Sean’s embrace. Next, she tugged on his shirt before whimpering pitifully, “Sean, let’s just forget about it…”

Sean could feel his whole body stiffen as he noticed Myra’s indifferent face and Lyla’s sobs coming from his embrace. It was at this point that he realized Myra’s cold indifference was quite jarring to his eyes so much so that he was on the brink of tearing her apart to get rid of her current expression.

“Sean, it hurts…” All of a sudden, Lyla yelped in pain. Right away, he snapped out of his daze and quickly loosened his grip on her.

Before he could say anything, there was a light cough that came from behind. As such, the tense and awkward situation was interrupted as the three of them as well as everyone at the reception turned their heads toward the direction of the cough. In front of their eyes was an old man with snow-white hair—he looked energetic despite his age and was currently walking quite briskly toward them from the front entrance.

A flash of surprise crossed Myra’s face as soon as she saw him. However, she immediately recalled that he had mentioned in the text message that he was going to drop off something for her in the afternoon.
