Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

Chapter 311

“Let you go?” Gideon laughed lightly. “If you marry someone else, it might be possible. I’m giving you

another chance—leave Sean, have an abortion, and return to me.”

“Director Walton!” Lyla clenched her fists which were dangling next to her body. “I know you have a

fiancee now—it’s Kris. You guys are already together—”

“So?”

He finished the contents in his wine glass and placed it rather forcefully on the bar. The glass

immediately shattered into pieces.

Cold sweat had gathered in her palms.

Since she had been with him for the past two years, she knew the type of person he was—obstinate,

cruel, stubborn. He was basically a monster. If anyone had infuriated him, he would make the rest of

that person’s life quite unfortunate.

“Lyla, there are many men for you to choose from, yet you want to marry Sean. I know that you have

done quite a lot of things to force Myra to leave him back then. It’s impossible for you to continue

staying at the Chase Family anyway. If you come to me, I will treat you well.”

“What do you mean by this, Director Walton?” Lyla tightly clenched her fists.

“My sister wants to marry Tony, so Myra will have to leave him. At this stage, apart from Sean, who else

can she go to?” Gideon did not mind telling her about this.

Judging from Sean’s actions at this moment, what he thought about was to reconcile with Myra after

divorcing Lyla.

Lyla’s expression immediately changed. “You want me to give up the spot for Myra?”

“You should know that even if you are Sean’s wife, there’s not much difference between you and a

widower. After all, I can’t bear for you to be so forlorn…” With that, he stretched out with his hand and

lifted her chin.

Then, Gideon’s thin lips gently touched her lips for a kiss.

Immediately, Lyla felt a wave of disgust and her entire body violently trembled. She wanted to push the

monster in front of her away, but she did not dare to do so.

She clenched her fists tightly again and relaxed them. After repeating the action for a few times, he

suddenly swept her off her feet.

“Are you afraid of me?” Gideon’s eyes narrowed dangerously as he looked at Lyla. His hands

mischievously slid past her knees, making tears swim in her eyes.

He did not force her to give him an answer. Instead, he brought her into the bedroom and threw her

onto the bed indifferently. Then, he pressed himself on her.

“Director Walton…” Lyla’s voice started to tremble. “P-Please, I’m a married woman now. What other

women do you like? I can find them for you…”

Seeing her hands pushing against his chest at this moment, Gideon smiled sarcastically. “Lyla, you are

not suitable to feign innocence. When you were with Sean back then, have you forgotten about the

other person whom you were with simultaneously?”

As soon as she heard his words, she immediately paled. “Y-You investigated me?”

“If you don’t want all these matters to be known by others, you better obediently divorce Sean.” He

smacked her cheeks a few times. The sound of the smacks had aroused him, so he suddenly removed

her sweater with a fiery look in his eyes. “You really don’t miss me at all after such a long time being

apart?”

…

When she heard the sound of the water coming from the bathroom, Lyla sat up from the bed without

any expression on her face.

Gideon would not let her go. For the sake of the Walton Family and his sister, he had already decided

to make her leave Sean. The worst thing was that she had no power to resist him.

After all, he had a lot of evidence of her wrongdoing. If he sent those to the Chase Family, Eve and

Sean would have a reason to chase her out.

Lyla clenched her fists tightly and lowered her head. There were bruises all over her body. Even her

waist was chafed after being bitten by Gideon, but she did not seem to notice it.

She knew that he would not let her go, and if she resisted him, she would still be the victim in the end.

Lyla had always been a practical woman. She had slept with Gideon, so it was nothing to her. Apart

from that, she knew well that Sean would not even touch her at that moment, so he would never know

that she had sustained such injuries.

When she thought about him, Myra popped into her mind instead, which caused her to be furious and

helpless. Initially, she thought she was the winner after she had successfully chased Myra away.

However, in the end, she was the complete loser. Myra, who had left the Chase Family in disgrace, was

now the most blissful woman as she was being pampered and loved by Tony.

Her heart suddenly skipped a beat as she remembered something. She got out of the bed and looked

for something in the cabinets. After thinking about it, she walked out of the bedroom to Gideon’s study

in the apartment.

It was not difficult to find his study. After all, a desk lamp was still lit in the room. Underneath the dim

glow of the lamp were three laptops placed next to each other. Lyla had to admit that Gideon was also

a prodigy in business, although he was not as smart as Tony.

Knowing that Gideon would quickly emerge from the bathroom, she hastened her pace in searching.

However, she was still cautious about everything so that she would not mess up his study and returned

the files to their original spot after she looked through them. By doing so, she would not leave any trace

behind.

Before her arrival, he was most probably doing some work in the study. Lyla could see many different

files next to the laptop—they were all related to the project at Central Square in Bradfort City, which the

Walton Group was in charge of.

She quickly looked for what she wanted, but obviously, she did not find any useful data for her. Seeing

that the time had been ticking by, it was probable that Gideon would emerge from the bathroom soon.

With a frown on her face, she quickly took pictures of a few important documents. Before she left, she

noticed that the bottom drawer of his desk was slightly open and opened it after giving it a thought.

When she saw the documents within, her frown deepened.

When Gideon walked out of the bathroom, Lyla’s head was hung low as she sat on the edge of the bed

and trembled. She had barely managed to wear the clothes she had when she arrived, but various

parts were torn by him, making her look miserable and pitiful.

Back when they were still together, she had been open and daring in order to entice him. After all, it

was quite a feat for her to be with him for two years. When a woman was not passionate enough, he

did not find it fun anymore—just like her behavior at the moment.

When Gideon looked at Lyla, he was not as passionate as before. After walking over to her, he

smacked her cheeks again as he spoke in a gratified voice, “Baby, my words are still true. I’ll give you a

week for you to settle your relationship with the Chase Family. Otherwise, when I do it… You know

what my methods are.” An eerie smile flashed on his face.

With that, he wore his sweater and walked out of the bedroom to the study.

Behind him, she clenched her fists tightly.

…

To take care of Myra, Tony had bought breakfast for her early in the morning. On his way back, he

received a call and many pictures were immediately forwarded to him after he hung up.

After breakfast, he sent her to the Stark Group as usual.
