Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 259

Myra was quiet for a moment. Estelle had always been domineering and headstrong, but for Shawn to be the weaker party in their relationship just seemed… impossible.

All of a sudden, she asked a little cautiously, “Estelle, have you… not forgotten that person?”

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then Estelle’s unrecognizable voice sounded. “Myra, what are you talking about? I don’t want to be with Shawn. I don’t have anything to do with him at all, okay? If you hadn’t just mentioned that person, I would’ve completely forgotten about him. Shawn and I… I just don’t think we’re suitable for each other!”

“How are you not suitable?!” Myra exclaimed.

Estelle took a deep breath. “He’s one of the law-abiding renowned figures, and his future is bright. He… Anyway, he would never have a relationship with a measly actress like me.”

“I don’t think that’s the case.” Myra raised her eyebrows.

In the beginning, when Tony wanted to be with her, she had a lot of concerns.

Women tended to contemplate more than men. They would consider all kinds of issues, but from a man’s point of view, there was only one question—‘will you be with me?’

“Deputy Mayor Hart minds that you’re an actress?” Myra asked. She knew that Estelle liked her job very much, albeit being born the impressive daughter of a rich family.

“Not really…” Estelle muttered. Feeling that admitting this was helping Shawn, she quickly added, “But, he’s always troubling me and preventing me from filming flirtatious scenes, which is disturbing my career! And it makes me very—”

“Charles doesn’t like Shawn?” Myra interrupted, ignoring her desperate remarks.

Estelle replied somewhat unhappily, “Of course, Charles likes him. As a profiteer, how could he not like him—”

“You don’t like Deputy Mayor Hart?” Myra’s expression remained unchanged as she interrupted her once again.

Estelle was a little frantic now. “I didn’t say I don’t like him, but—”

“Then, isn’t it settled?” Myra thought, It’s just as I expected. She likes Deputy Mayor Hart. “Estelle, if you’re worried about something, why don’t you talk it out with him? It’s possible that what you think is a problem is not a problem to him at all.”

Similarly, in the beginning, Myra kept thinking that she shouldn’t be with Tony because of her identity, and she thought that his family would come in their way.

But, in fact, Tony didn’t care, and his family treated her very well.

“Oh, you don’t understand!” Estelle was growing a little restless. She was rushing to the city hall, and after getting out of the car, she walked directly toward Shawn’s office. She wanted to have a good chat with him and take back everything she said last night!

“That’s it for now. I have something to do, so I can’t talk anymore. We’ll talk later.”

Looking at the office door before her, Estelle took a deep breath as mixed emotions appeared in her eyes.

She pushed open the door and was about to let loose everything she wanted to say, but upon seeing the scene in front of her, her expression changed in an instant.

At this moment, Shawn was standing next to his desk, and a graceful woman stood leaning against him. Nearly her entire person was nestled in his arms, and she currently had her hands on his tie.

The woman seemed alarmed by the sound of the door opening behind her, and she quickly turned to take a look. When she saw who the visitor was, the woman was no longer panicky, and a knowing smile appeared on her face.

“Estelle?” The woman squinted.

“Kris…” Estelle’s face dropped as she went straight into the office, not forgetting to reach behind to close the office door. Taking just a few steps, she stood before Shawn and Kris.

When she saw Shawn’s tightly knitted brows and his lowered gaze, the fire in Estelle’s stomach rose abruptly.
