Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 113

Myra didn’t know whether to laugh or cry right then. She couldn’t seem to figure out the reason Sebastian came over to visit—it made her nervous at the start, but she eventually calmed herself down. Perhaps he misunderstood the situation and came over to thank me. I really didn’t leak any confidential information to Hart Group, so Old Master Hart’s abrupt actions made me very helpless.

After she sent the old man off, she returned to her unit. Myra’s phone on the couch lit up with a new notification, informing her about the new friend request on her Messenger app. She had no choice but to tap on the ‘accept’ button, and her new friend quickly sent her a message.

‘I’ll consider you as having passed the test since you made pretty decent noodles.’ I’m considered to have passed the test… What is he talking about? His text only left Myra more frustrated than ever. She simply threw her phone aside before she headed into the shower.

When Eve woke up, she realized that Sean had already left to handle other matters at the company. Lyla was the one who stayed around to take care of her instead. However, Eve seemed extremely displeased to see Lyla beside her. “What are you doing here? We don’t welcome you here, Miss Fisher. You should have some self-respect; you should walk out yourself before I chase you out.”

Lyla didn’t seem angered by Eve’s words. Instead, she put on a big smile. “Eve, we both have Sean’s best interests at heart; whether it was two years ago or two years later. I left him two years ago and gave Myra the opportunity to revive Chase Group’s business then. However, things are a lot different now, Eve. Myra can no longer save the Chase Group now, but I can do it. Don’t you think you should be a little more polite with me?”

“You can save the Chase Group?” Eve uttered in a sarcastic tone as she mocked Lyla’s words, which sounded no different to her than if Lyla were to admit that she was the daughter of the wealthiest men in Bradfort City. “How could you save the company when even Myra can’t do it? Don’t get too arrogant, Miss Fisher; you’ll only disappoint yourself more in the end.”

“Whether or not I get disappointed is my own issue. Are you sure you don’t want me to help, Eve?” Lyla swiftly sat herself down beside the other woman. She was naturally pretty; her looks served as an access card when she mingled around with the upper classes of Bradfort City. “There’s something else I want to tell you, Eve. Cameron is expecting a son in a few months’ time. Soon, that child is going to fight to become the Stark Group’s inheritor.”

“What did you say?!” Eve exclaimed in a loud voice. After Richard had told her about the issues the company was facing and the traumatic memories of the Hilliville project that troubled her, Eve felt like she couldn’t handle another shock right then. Nonetheless, Lyla was clearly well-prepared to tell her all about this matter. “I’m just saying that Myra might not inherit the Stark Group. After Cameron’s son is born, there wouldn’t be enough time to save the Chase Group even if she does inherit the company, right? Furthermore, do you think Myra will still be willing to sacrifice her all just to save the Chase Group after all the hurt that she’s been through?”

Eve’s face fell immediately. “Stop making false assumptions! Myra isn’t that sort of heartless, fickle-minded person!”

“Are you worried that she might be fickle-minded, or are you actually afraid that she wouldn’t be able to inherit the Stark Group after her younger brother comes along? Aren’t you just worried that she wouldn’t be capable of saving the Chase Group?” Lyla’s words gave Eve another blow. She then shoved her phone into Eve’s hands. “You can read what this says if you don’t believe me.” Eve hastily took the phone over. Her face turned ghastly pale after she went through all of the reports and articles of Cameron announcing the good news about his son.
