Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 214

Ivy Jameson suddenly found the scene difficult to bear. I was handling some subsequent work in the United States before rushing back. How could so many things happen without my knowledge within such a short time? Tony was staring at her with an increasingly annoyed look and she walked to his front while extending her hand.

There was a bag in her hand and it had a logo of a pharmacy printed on it.

“I noticed that you seemed to be having some gastric discomfort during the meeting today. It so happened that I was passing by a pharmacy and I bought some medicine for gastritis,” she sounded concerned. It seemed like she only had eyes for him while completely ignoring the woman standing behind him.

Myra was astounded, but she did not stop what she was doing. Instead, she merely regarded the woman in front of her in silence.

Almost everybody knows that there are no female assistants on Tony’s office floor. However, this woman looks like an elite staff member. I heard her saying that she noticed Tony was having gastric discomfort. I can immediately guess that she must be holding a high position in Hart Group. That is why she has the right to enter Tony’s office. However, the way this woman is gazing at Tony…

Myra increased her strength instinctively.

Tony felt the increased pressure on his shoulders. He maintained a blank façade across his face, but his eyes now twinkled with a smile.

Ivy observed everything quietly and she tightened her grip around the bag in her hand.

“Director Hart?” She persisted by holding the bag of medicine out toward Tony. “You should have some because you have two more consecutive meetings in the afternoon.” There was a trace of intimacy in her tone. After working together for years, the two of them had a tacit understanding when it involved working together. She glanced at Myra triumphantly.

However, Tony closed his eyes as though he was enjoying Myra’s massage. “My stomach is fine. Take away the medicine,” he answered calmly.

“Director Hart!” Ivy seemed to disagree with him. “Health is the most important thing. Old Madam Hart would be devastated if she learns that you are not taking good care of your health again.”

Myra stopped moving. It looks like she is not just an elite staff member from the Hart Group.

Tony finally opened his eyes when he felt Myra’s hands stop. He looked at the determined woman in front of him while frowning deeply. “Miss Ivy, is there anything else?”

Ivy’s back stiffened straight away and she glanced at the woman who was behind Tony. She secretly inhaled before smiling at him. “Regarding the two meetings in the afternoon, one of them is the discussion of the financial proposal for the Hilliville project whereas the other is the solution management for its remaining real estate. For both meetings, the Finance Department has succeeded in securing capital integration from Jameson Group. The rest of it should be a walk in the park.”

“Thank you for the hard work.”

It was clear that Ivy explained so much just to highlight her contribution to Tony, but she received nothing more than an indifferent response from him.

Therefore, her gaze immediately changed when she looked at Myra again.

Myra was younger than Tony by 10 years and since she had a petite face with delicate features, she looked as though she was merely in her early 20’s. Ivy was slightly shocked at that point. I can’t believe that Director Hart fancies such a young woman.

I don’t recognize her, but she looks oddly familiar. I can’t help but feel upset as I see how intimate they are with each other.
