Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 149

Myra eventually lost her temper and flung the bag at him. “I’m not changing into anything!” she fumed. After she shrugged him off, she ran straight toward the car in front of her. During this time, however, she did not think of taking a cab back home.

Being considerate and tolerant was necessary in a relationship. Both she and Tony already lacked both of those traits, but they were still able to learn how to love each other.

By the time she arrived at the car, she still had to wait for Tony to get there.

He walked toward her at a steady pace and shot an eyebrow up at her before unlocking the doors.

Without a second thought, she got into the car.

After he got into the car and locked the doors, he suddenly pressed up against her.

Looking straight into her flustered eyes, he lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. “Don’t be mad anymore, okay?”

She felt like she was an even bigger hypocrite now. Just because he said those words, the grievances in her heart simply washed away. Biting her lip out of frustration, she turned away from him.

Tony turned her face back toward him and kissed her eyes. “Who told you to let me spot you with that fellow when I had come rushing back to see you? It made me upset.”

“You’re upset? What about me?” She pushed him away slightly. Looking at him with her big, clear eyes that were filled with despair, she retorted, “When you flirted with women at social gatherings, I didn’t say anything about it. When I called you the other day, I ended up hearing a girl at your house. Don’t you know how miserable I felt? Not to mention, you… claimed that you liked me as though you don’t have another woman, but the truth is you have a crush on a woman that you’ve never told me about!”

He felt sorry just seeing the accusing look in her eyes. After giving her a peck, he shook his head obliviously. “I’ve never flirted with other women at social gatherings before. That’s slander. As for the night you called, the person who came to look for me was Gemma, the Young Lady of the Walton Family. She was able to find my address because of her brother’s connections, but nothing is going on between us. The crush…” His eyes sank when he got to that point, and his voice also became slightly raspy. “It’s true; I do have a crush on a woman.”

Myra’s body stiffened, and her eyes filled with disbelief.

Without waiting for her response, he let out a low chuckle and said, “I have a crush, but isn’t she my girlfriend now? Myra, if you insist on being jealous of yourself, I can’t stop you either.”

There was a tear still hanging on her eyelash. Upon hearing his words, she blinked and the tear rolled down.

He wiped away the tear with a kiss then proceeded to kiss her lips.

When she started to run out of breath in his arms, he finally let go. Biting her lip one last time, he knew that she was back to herself after hearing her wince in pain.

Before this, she used the first two issues to keep scores with him in order to build up her argument, but his answer to her last accusation caught her by surprise. He admitted to having a crush, but that woman… is me?
