Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 262

“If you call the police, naturally, someone will check the authenticity of your accusations! Since you said I was slandering you, then you won’t be afraid of people finding out the truth!” There was a joyful coldness in Gemma’s eyes.

Myra squeezed her fists into even tighter balls.

She wanted to say that what happened that day was just a misunderstanding. She had indeed entered Tony’s room that day, but only because Leo asked her to bring dinner up for Tony, which was why she entered Tony’s hotel room.

However, Tony did, in fact, have some intentions toward her at that time. How was she supposed to explain it? She couldn’t possibly say that Tony regarded her as the kind of woman who would sell her body for a project and had treated her accordingly, right?

Not to mention, she was framed for stealing trade secrets about the Chase Group’s Hilliville Project, so she had indeed stayed with Tony for one night.

The next day, she even explained herself to the employees of the Chase Group, but no one believed her.

People often only believed and made judgments based on what they saw. How could they possibly believe that she was taken to Tony’s office because she was severely injured and that nothing happened between them?

Suspicions and gossip would only make things worse.

Myra was just afraid that Tony would earn the reputation of pursuing married women.

Her identity at that time was already a sensitive topic, so who knew what the public would twist the story into? She dared not bet on Tony, and she didn’t want him to be discredited because of her.

Nevertheless, her silence was obviously boosting the power of Gemma’s statements.

The expressions of every person looking at her had changed.

“Miss Stark…” Tilly peered at Myra, feeling worried.

She knew about how Tony pursued Myra back then.

Ever since she knew that Myra’s husband was Sean—the director who was constantly involved in scandals—Tilly immediately stood with Tony.

It could be said that Tilly had done quite a lot to get Myra and Tony together. Among them, when Myra left the Chase Group after being wrongfully accused of stealing their Hilliville Project’s trade secrets, Tilly was the one who called Tony to inform him about what happened in the Chase Group.

She was also aware that the matter with the video was rather serious.

“Security, hurry up and get her out!” Tilly looked at the three security guards, who were standing frozen in place. Myra’s silence made her a little uneasy, so she decided that she would call Tony later to tell him about this.

The three security guards came to their senses and moved forward to pull Gemma’s arm, so the commotion grew.

“What’s going on?!”

Suddenly, a grave and stern voice rang out, bringing the stalemate to a halt.

The people gathering around them opened up a path for Cameron to walk out of the crowd.

While they were tugging on each other just now, Gemma’s hairdo was destroyed, so her hair was currently in disarray, making her look a little wretched.

An angry flame was burning in her eyes. Taking advantage of Cameron’s gradual approach, she broke free of the security guard’s grasp and tidied herself before walking forward. Along the way, she slammed hard into Myra’s shoulder. Then, she forced a smile and looked at Cameron. “You’re President Stark, right? I’m a member of the Walton Group’s board of directors, and my name is Gemma Walton. I believe you’ve heard of me before, President Stark.”

The Walton Family was once famous in Bradfort City, so the older generation of businessmen must have heard of them before.

Something flashed across Cameron’s eyes. As he looked around, his gaze swept over Myra, and the slightest hint of coldness crossed his features. However, when he looked at Gemma, there was a slight smile in his eyes. “I wonder what brought you to the Stark Group, Miss Walton?”
