Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 195

When Rachel said that, she gently used one hand to stroke her belly. The bump on her belly was not that obvious, but both of them knew what was inside her belly.

Still, Kris bit her lip. “But, even the doctor has said that this child will never be born. Dad is keeping such a tight grip over the company shares. If the baby isn’t born, how are we going to get a hold of those shares?”

The basic condition to gain control over the Stark Group’s shares was for Rachel to give birth to a child. Moreover, it had to be a boy. They had known since the beginning that this child would not survive. Initially, they wanted to coax Cameron into handing the shares to them while it was still in her womb. However, they had underestimated his sense of vigilance.

Rachel’s lips curved. “Do you remember the plan I told you about in the beginning?”

Kris paused for a moment before nodding, “I remember; I’m just scared…”

“Yes. It’s normal to be scared. After all, your father is inherently suspicious. If he realizes that we have been deceiving him all along, he would never forgive us. But, what if I didn’t lose this child because of him? Instead; what if Myra caused me to miscarry again?”

achel strongly emphasized the word ‘again’. Kris was taken aback for a moment. After that, her vibrant lips lifted into a smile and excitement crept into her eyes. “Mom, do you mean…”

“Yes. Didn’t you resent Myra for snatching your man away from you? If everybody sees Myra’s true colors… What will they think of a person like her who couldn’t even tolerate the birth of a younger sibling? What will the Hart Family think of her? What will outsiders think of her?” Rachel patted Kris on the shoulder and quietly continued, “Especially your father; he’s finally getting the son he always wanted. If he lost his son to Myra, who is single-mindedly trying to reclaim the family assets…”

Although Rachel did not finish the rest of her sentence, Kris immediately understood what she was aiming for. “Dad said that Tony is only having a fling with Myra. He claims that Tony is only aiming to obtain Hilliville from her. He also asked me to endure…” Now that Kris had calmed down, she began to think about what Cameron had said to her.

The corners of Rachel’s mouth curled into a gentle smile. “Your father is still on your side. Kris, we need to kick Myra out of the Stark Family completely. It doesn’t matter even if we can’t get a hold of the company shares for the time being. If you are the only daughter Cameron has, then the Stark Group can only be handed down to you.”

Similarly, a smile finally appeared on Kris’ face. It was a rather cruel smile. Nodding, she replied, “I understand.”

“As for Tony…” Rachel narrowed her eyes. “That man will surely become my daughter’s! Myra will only get to enjoy him in the beginning. Once Tony throws her aside…” She stroked Kris’ head. “Naturally, that will be the time when you take her place.”

Concurrently, Sean swiftly drove back to the Chase Residence. As of this moment, the floor of the Chase Residence was littered with broken stuff. The living room was more or less destroyed, the TV screens were smashed, and the outside of the kitchen was full of porcelain shards.

As soon as Greta noticed his return, she quickly greeted him and anxiously said, “I’m so glad you’re finally back, Mr. Chase! Madam Eve and Young Mistress Lyla have been quarreling non-stop! They won’t listen to me no matter how hard I try to talk them out of it! Please go and check on them.”

He did not wait for her to finish speaking before brushing past her and walking inside. The first person he met was Eve. Eve had been slapped in the face, and the red marks on her face were still visible. The moment she caught sight of Sean, she immediately ran over and wept bitterly. “Sean, I regret this. You should divorce this woman! Look at how she treats me?! She actually dared to hit me!”

She turned the injured half of her face to him for him to see. However, he said nothing. Similarly, Lyla also ran over to him upon seeing that he had returned. She was in a worse state than Eve. Both sides of her face indicated that she had been slapped. One side of her face was swollen. Moreover, both her face and her body were dripping with tea as if somebody had poured tea on her. She looked very disheveled.
