Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 159

Besides, Old Master Stark handed his will over to Conan back then so that Conan could bring it out when the time was right.

Tony’s slanted eyes narrowed slightly. “She told me that she wants to obtain the Stark Group with her own strength. She wants to give it a go.”

“Of course. It’s only right to let her try.” Conan chuckled while giving Tony a meaningful look. “But, I also know that you won’t just sit idly by and let her try all by herself.”

Tony wasn’t upset that Conan had seen through his inner thoughts. “So?”

“So…” Conan shrugged. “This is the second condition I have before allowing you to marry Myra on behalf of her grandfather and her mother.” Needless to say, the first condition is that Myra loves him.

“There’s a third condition too?” Tony scowled.

“Of course.” Conan raised his eyebrow. “I don’t want her to get bullied, no matter where those issues may spring from. Therefore, you still have many things to deal with.”

Tony understood the implication behind those words. “It looks like I won’t be able to propose any time soon.”

“You can solve some of these issues as quickly as possible.” Conan stood up with the help of his cane, walked over to the window, and glanced at the cactus placed by the windowsill. “Take good care of her. She has suffered enough in the past.”

“I’m not being nice to her just because she suffered a lot in the past.” Tony felt moved. Although he was very reluctant to do so, he still turned to the old man and quietly said, “Thank you for taking care of her over the years.” After that, he turned and left the office without waiting for the other party to reply.

Glancing at the bright sunshine outside the window, Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At 6 PM, Myra finally understood the ins and outs of the Elsinore Garden Project. Glancing at the time, she suddenly realized that she was feeling a little hungry. Thus, she unwrapped a piece of chocolate and stuffed it into her mouth. She rather enjoyed the feeling of returning to work. She was probably the kind of person that felt restless when she had nothing to do. Hence, her entire being seemed different when she had something to work on.

She soon received a voice message on Messenger. When she clicked on it, a deep voice sounded from her phone. “Waiting downstairs.”

She felt her heart skipping a beat. After she said her goodbyes to Tilly, she freshened herself up under Tilly’s teasing gaze before heading toward the elevator. Just as she arrived at the elevator, the elevator next to her arrived at almost the same time. However, she couldn’t care less about what other people were doing or what was going on around her. Therefore, she failed to notice that Kris was stalking her from behind with a grim expression.

Myra walked briskly, nodding and smiling at everybody she met. It was an obvious characteristic of a young woman in love, which made Kris look even more upset as she followed behind Myra. Myra quickly walked out of Stark Tower; the black Maybach that had sent her to work this morning was parked not too far away.

Kris saw a tall man coming out of the driver’s seat from afar but could not see his face clearly. Then, that man walked over in a gentlemanly manner to the passenger seat to open the car door for Myra.

Upon seeing that, Kris narrowed her eyes slightly. She quickly ran over to Myra without even thinking about it and grabbed the man’s arm while shouting in a shrill voice, “Let me see just who this mysterious boyfriend of yours is, Myra!”
