Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 266

Tony’s voice was low and humorous as he bantered. When Myra heard the word ‘wife’, her cheeks started to turn red. He was not usually a sentimental man, but, surprisingly, hearing that word come out of his mouth did not feel strange. Instead, it felt rather intoxicating.

Biting her lower lip, she murmured, “I’m not married to you yet…”

He let out a low and deep laugh. “Are you complaining that I’m not moving fast enough?”

Upon hearing his words, her face turned even redder. She bickered, “Forget it. I’m going to sort out some documents now. Focus on your work. Don’t worry about things here.”

He acquiesced with a smile.

Soon after, their call ended.

Nonetheless, he did not change the direction he was going in even after he hung up.

When Tilly called him, she did not get a chance to talk to him, but he had heard everything that was happening at the time. He knew that Sean had gone to Stark Group and heard him defend Myra. Naturally, he also heard them talk about the video.

Hay Group… Sasha Hay…

He smirked at the thought of the woman who seduced him in his office back then, but the tip of his brows showed the concern he felt. Stepping on the gas pedal, he hurried his way over to Stark Group.

Meanwhile, Gemma did not wait very long before Kris returned to the company.

Gemma’s expression was not great and neither was Kris’.

Not only did Kris bump into Estelle at City Hall, but she was even humiliated by both Estelle and Shawn. How could she get over it?

“Gemma…” Even though Kris looked unhappy, she still forced a smile when she saw Gemma and walked into her office toward her. “I heard you came to Bradfort City a while ago. Sorry, I didn’t know you in the beginning, so I didn’t invite you. I only found out when Gideon talked about you last night.”

To be frank, Gemma looked down on the Stark Family, especially because it was Myra’s family. Ever since she found out that Cameron and Kris stood in opposition to Myra, however, she immediately agreed to her brother.

When she heard Kris’ words, she smiled at her. “What are you saying? We’ll be one family in the future. Why are you being so courteous with me, sister-in-law?”

Thinking about the women around her brother, Gemma sympathized with the woman in front of her, but in spite of her sympathy, she still wouldn’t betray her brother for this woman.

As soon as Kris heard Gemma, she started to blush. “You know how to tease me, Gemma!” Suddenly, she remembered the phone call with her father earlier and looked at Gemma cautiously. “Gemma, my dad told me that my pompous sister was rude to you outside his office earlier. Don’t be angry. That’s the way she is. But don’t worry; Dad and I are still on your side.”

When Kris first heard about the existence of that video, she felt frustrated for a really long time. If she had known earlier, she would’ve gotten closer to Sasha and got that video for herself. I didn’t think Gemma would be so dumb. She clearly has a trump card in her hands, but she doesn’t know how to use it properly! Instead, she let Myra step all over her and even humiliated Dad.

Gemma was instantly reminded of the incident that took place. At the thought of Myra’s arrogant and smug expression earlier, she became livid and snickered. “It’s no wonder your dad wanted to kick her out of the family that year. With her around, how will the Stark Family manage to stand tall and proud in the business industry in Bradfort City?”
