Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 16

As the traffic during the night was quite light, she finally reached Lavender Residence in the city center after an hour. Lavender Residence was a high-end residence in Bradfort City, where every inch of land was expensive. This was not a place where normal rich people could afford to stay, nor was it a place where one with an average status could buy. Myra heard that this was developed by the Hart Group two years ago and when it was still in the planning stage, it had already been completely sold off. Back then, Eve wanted to buy a unit for both Sean and her as their wedding house. Unfortunately, she was unable to secure a spot. After Myra hung up Sean’s call just now, he did not call her again. She twitched her lips into a self-mocking smile at that. When the security guards saw the car that she had been driving, they quickly lifted the rails and let her in. And so, she entered the basement parking area without any restrictions. After she parked the car, Myra felt quite troubled. Tony was a man who stood at more than six feet. Even though he was not as bulky as a weight-lifter, he was definitely someone who looked slim when he had his clothes on, but he would look quite muscular when he took his clothes off. On top of that, he was quite drunk right now, so he would not have a lot of strength. There were many sports cars in the basement, but not one person could be seen. Myra did not dare to leave him alone to ask for help from others. Hence, she could only grit her teeth and open the car door to help Tony out of the car. Even though he was so drunk that he could not recognize her anymore, he was still slightly conscious. When Myra supported him, he knew that he had to get out of the car. When both his legs touched the ground, both of them stumbled, causing Myra to quickly grab onto the car for support. Finally, she managed to regain her balance. “Seeing how much effort I’ve put in, how about giving the Chase Group more profit if I get the Sunny Bay Project in the future?” Knowing that Tony could barely hear her, she muttered under her breath as her feet hooked on the edge of the door and closed it, unaware that Tony’s lips twitched into a slight smile even though he was originally motionless with his eyes closed. “You’re so heavy…” Myra walked a few steps while supporting Tony. After making sure the car was locked, she walked to the elevator. In the past, she only had physical interactions with Sean alone. Hence, she felt slightly embarrassed as she held a man whom she was not familiar with at this moment. Fortunately for her, he was unconscious so it was not that awkward. When they passed a small step, Myra slowed down subconsciously. Just as she was about to place her foot on the ground, a sudden surge of dizziness overcame her. “Oh!” She lost her footing and fell to the ground with Tony. She was not sure if it was an illusion, but she felt a hand protecting her head when she fell. With a low grunt, she fell on Tony directly. A soft sensation traveled from her lips to her brain, bringing along a refreshing taste of mint and tobacco. Myra widened her eyes immediately, not expecting the fall to cause her to kiss Tony on the lips directly. In all honesty, he smelled quite good. Myra did not feel sick, but their position made her feel nervous and embarrassed. She quickly got away from Tony and looked at the man who was still lying on the ground. He did not look too good and under the lights from the basement parking, he looked even paler. Even after such a heavy fall, he still did not wake up. However, his frown showed that the fall was quite painful for him. Subconsciously, Myra touched her lips. At this point, she was not sure if it was because of the fever or the embarrassment that her face flushed red. She was annoyed at herself because she knew she could not blame it on anyone else. If Tony fell on her instead, she probably would not be able to lift him off herself. After gritting her teeth, Myra crouched and helped Tony up again. She went into the elevator and pressed on the button before exiting. When she got out, she froze. There was only one unit on each floor of Lavender Residence. However, Leo did not give her Tony’s house keys. Does that mean… the keys are with Tony himself? Myra looked at the pockets of his trousers as she felt her face flush again. She leaned on the wall and pressed Tony to the wall as well to free one of her hands. She did not even have such intimate physical contact with Sean. However, seeing as Tony was unconscious, it was highly probable that he would not even remember their experience today. Hence, she plucked up her courage and stretched her hand into Tony’s pockets.
