Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 255

Kris came to know about the will from Lyla, except she heard a different story from what she eavesdropped!

“Dad, I didn’t think Myra would be a threat to us, so I didn’t take it seriously, but she came on so strong this time. She casually exposed our plan to kick her out last time. Not to mention, she even made you punish us severely! Dad, I don’t know how true Tony’s feelings are for her, but for as long as they are together, he will help her! Ever since she entered the Stark Group, everything has gone smoothly for her. She’s even doing an impressive job in her position as general manager while we got defeated again! Can’t you see it? She wants to get me and mom away from you, then go after you when you’re alone!”

Kris spoke extensively in one breath, but if it had to do with Myra’s ambition, she did not mind instilling it in his mind once more.

Almost everyone knew Myra’s goal in returning to the Stark Group, including Cameron.

He let her back in at the time for the assets she held, but he did not realize that she was harder to fool than he had imagined. She was no longer the little girl who only knew how to keep things in. Not only did she have Conan’s support, but she also had Tony’s help. In the end, they failed to get anything out of her and only lost more on their end.

As Cameron listened to Kris, his face slowly sank to an all-time low.

Even if he loathed Kris and her mother, Kris was right. Myra was standing in opposition with him. She resented her own father and only wanted to take the company away from him. At this moment, the only people he could trust were Kris and her mother. Myra also has the will Old Master Stark passed down…

“D*mn it!” The veins at his temple were bulging. That old man always protected Myra and that woman, but he never stopped to think that I am his son and just left the entire Stark Group to that wench. “Are you sure this will is real?” He stared at Kris’ eyes to see if they would give something away.

His eyes were filled with anger and an unfathomable emotion as though he would make them pay if they lied to him again.

Kris felt a shudder under his pressuring stare but still gritted her teeth and said, “It’s real!”

Lyla did not have a reason to lie to her at the time. She couldn’t have made this up out of thin air either. At the time, if it wasn’t because Myra would inherit the Stark Group that would eventually fall into Eve’s son’s hands, Kris couldn’t think of another reason Eve would treat Myra so warmly.

In an instant, the anger in Cameron’s eyes subsided and he became calm. Looking up, he gazed at Kris and said, “Since you’re back now, you should rest first. Don’t fall behind on work.”

His tone of voice also changed dramatically. From the look in his eyes, she knew that he believed her.

She felt smug. The expression on her face also softened. “Dad, I told you before. Mom and I will always be on your side. I didn’t go to the United States purely for work this time but for your business in the future.”

“Oh? Tell me about it, Krissy.” It hadn’t been ten minutes yet, but Cameron was already back to calling her in the affectionate way he used to instead of addressing her spitefully as ‘Kris’. This time, she truly felt relieved. Her face started to blush, and she looked at him bashfully. “Dad, do you know the Walton Group?”

Something flickered across his eyes before he smirked meaningfully. “You mean the Walton Group that flourished in Bradfort City at one point and wasn’t even inferior to Hart Group before moving to the United States to expand? I heard recently that they intend to move the company back to Bradfort City to continue expanding.”

Giving him a nod, she tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and revealed her flushed cheeks. “Gideon Walton has been pursuing me lately. When I went to the United States this time, we pretty much made our relationship steady. He says that once he comes back to Bradfort City, he will propose to me! Dad…” She looked up at him with earnest eyes. “I asked him to tell you himself. After all, you are my father. If you’re not happy with him, even if I like him, I won’t go against your wishes.”

Cameron observed his daughter without a change in expression, but a storm was already taking place within him.

He heard the news about the Walton Group recently and knew that their development prospects in the United States were not good. Thus, they decided to return to Bradfort City. Despite that, they still had a strong presence in Bradfort City. Kris did not have any chances of marrying into the Hart Family now, but it wouldn’t be a bad option if she hitched her wagon to the Walton Family. Moreover, the Hart Family and the Walton Family had a good relationship.
