Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

Chapter 266

Tony’s voice was low and humorous as he bantered. When Myra heard the word ‘wife’, her cheeks

started to turn red. He was not usually a sentimental man, but, surprisingly, hearing that word come out

of his mouth did not feel strange. Instead, it felt rather intoxicating.

Biting her lower lip, she murmured, “I’m not married to you yet…”

He let out a low and deep laugh. “Are you complaining that I’m not moving fast enough?”

Upon hearing his words, her face turned even redder. She bickered, “Forget it. I’m going to sort out

some documents now. Focus on your work. Don’t worry about things here.”

He acquiesced with a smile.

Soon after, their call ended.

Nonetheless, he did not change the direction he was going in even after he hung up.

When Tilly called him, she did not get a chance to talk to him, but he had heard everything that was

happening at the time. He knew that Sean had gone to Stark Group and heard him defend Myra.

Naturally, he also heard them talk about the video.

Hay Group… Sasha Hay…

He smirked at the thought of the woman who seduced him in his office back then, but the tip of his

brows showed the concern he felt. Stepping on the gas pedal, he hurried his way over to Stark Group.

Meanwhile, Gemma did not wait very long before Kris returned to the company.

Gemma’s expression was not great and neither was Kris’.

Not only did Kris bump into Estelle at City Hall, but she was even humiliated by both Estelle and

Shawn. How could she get over it?

“Gemma…” Even though Kris looked unhappy, she still forced a smile when she saw Gemma and

walked into her office toward her. “I heard you came to Bradfort City a while ago. Sorry, I didn’t know

you in the beginning, so I didn’t invite you. I only found out when Gideon talked about you last night.”

To be frank, Gemma looked down on the Stark Family, especially because it was Myra’s family. Ever

since she found out that Cameron and Kris stood in opposition to Myra, however, she immediately

agreed to her brother.

When she heard Kris’ words, she smiled at her. “What are you saying? We’ll be one family in the future.

Why are you being so courteous with me, sister-in-law?”

Thinking about the women around her brother, Gemma sympathized with the woman in front of her, but

in spite of her sympathy, she still wouldn’t betray her brother for this woman.

As soon as Kris heard Gemma, she started to blush. “You know how to tease me, Gemma!” Suddenly,

she remembered the phone call with her father earlier and looked at Gemma cautiously. “Gemma, my Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

dad told me that my pompous sister was rude to you outside his office earlier. Don’t be angry. That’s

the way she is. But don’t worry; Dad and I are still on your side.”

When Kris first heard about the existence of that video, she felt frustrated for a really long time. If she

had known earlier, she would’ve gotten closer to Sasha and got that video for herself. I didn’t think

Gemma would be so dumb. She clearly has a trump card in her hands, but she doesn’t know how to

use it properly! Instead, she let Myra step all over her and even humiliated Dad.

Gemma was instantly reminded of the incident that took place. At the thought of Myra’s arrogant and

smug expression earlier, she became livid and snickered. “It’s no wonder your dad wanted to kick her

out of the family that year. With her around, how will the Stark Family manage to stand tall and proud in

the business industry in Bradfort City?”

Even though Myra cheated, she still kept it a secret from everyone. Not only is Tony protecting her, but

it looks like she also has Sean’s protection after what happened today. Lyla is a good-for-nothing. She

can’t even keep an eye on one man! At the thought of Lyla, Gemma’s brows furrowed even deeper.

“What do you plan to do, Gemma? That video didn’t fluster Myra. Do you think she has a card up her

sleeve?” Kris asked in a composed manner.

“Didn’t fluster her?” Gemma scoffed. She still hadn’t forgotten how Myra’s face sank in an instant when

she first revealed the video. As long as this video is real, she can’t possibly remain calm!

“Why the rush? Myra may be good at talking, but how many people can she explain this to?” Gemma

looked down at her phone. “We can’t keep something so scandalous just between us, can we?

Wouldn’t it be more fun to share this with everyone?” A dubious light flickered across her eyes.

Kris acted surprised. “You’re brilliant, Gemma. Once everyone finds out about this, it will be over for

Myra.”

“I don’t care what moves she used in the past to deceive Tony and the Hart Family, and even Sean! I

have to see whether they would still want a disgraceful woman!”

Members of influential families emphasized the honor of their families. If Myra’s act was exposed and

her true colors were revealed to the world, at the very least, the Hart Family would no longer allow

Myra to be with Tony.

When Kris heard Sean’s name being mentioned, a puzzled look flashed across her face.

She couldn’t believe that Sean really helped Myra. In addition to seeing Sean outside Tony’s villa last

time, she started to have a look of ridicule as things were getting more and more interesting now.

…

After Myra hung up the phone, she began to think about the plan they discussed in the meeting earlier.

Then, she instructed Tilly to return the document to each department and make the changes according

to the plan they discussed in the meeting today.

Standing up from her chair, Myra moved her body around a little and was about to go to the break room

for some water with a cup in her hand when she heard an urgent knock on the door. It sounded

pressing as though it was something important.

She walked over right away to pull open the door. Tilly came right in from outside, making Myra take a

couple of steps back, then she closed the door again.

Even though it was only for a brief moment, Myra saw three to four female employees gathered

together and whispering to each other outside through the gap of the door. When they noticed her, they

quickly dispersed while acting nonchalant.

Tilly’s face was filled with anxiety. Putting her phone in front of Myra, she tapped into the entertainment

news and immediately revealed the headline of today’s news: ‘The daughter of Stark Group openly had

an affair while married; disowned by Chase Family after being secretly married for two years!’

The big red heading that looked like it was stained with blood barged into Myra’s line of vision without

any warning.

She felt suffocated for a moment but quickly clenched her fists tightly beside her.

The video of Myra running out of Tony’s hotel room in a disheveled state was exposed in the

entertainment news except they had blurred her face and only pointed out that the cheating woman

was the daughter of the Stark Family without giving a name. The man she had an affair with was only

described as a powerful man from Bradfort City, but his identity was not revealed. Nevertheless, Myra

and Sean’s divorce was a big issue at the time. Moreover, recent news about Myra and Tony being

together also spread like wildfire. Any person would be able to put two and two together.

The media also tried to depict her as a woman who only had eyes for the rich and looked down on the

poor. In the news, she became someone of a lower status who fawned over the powerful and rich.

Everyone else was made to be innocent while she was the only one stirring up trouble.
