Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 339

This scene was captured by the members of the press behind them.

Sebastian was quite stunned to see that and he gave a slight cough as his face flushed red in embarrassment, Oh gosh, these two don’t even care whether this is an appropriate place and time! Although he lamented this in his heart, he didn’t express anything and made his way out of the conference room hand-in-hand with Lisa.

Myra’s face flushed completely from her cheeks to the tips of her ears after the kiss from Tony. She glared at Tony and finally succeeded in making him behave slightly. He laughed in a low tone and the both of them then disappeared from the entrance of the conference room.

Unbeknown to the two of them, this press conference was not only a success in clarifying the circulating rumors recently, but their affectionate relationship was also the main focus of the press, resulting in them being the source of envy of the youngsters who saw the live stream.

…

Myra received a phone call on her cell phone soon after arriving at Tony’s office. As soon as she answered the phone, a shrill, loud voice rang out, “Myra Stark, I need to talk to you.” The person’s tone was full of disdain.

Myra furrowed her brows in response. She had a good memory and could recall hearing this voice at Tony’s birthday party—turned out it was Shelly on the line. Myra kept her silence but the other party continued her words without even expecting a reply, “Meet me at the café next to the hospital at around 11.00 AM.” Then, Shelly hung up the phone right away after finishing her sentence. Feeling speechless, Myra stared at the phone in her hand with a resigned look.

“What’s wrong?” Tony had already removed his jacket with her help and the jacket was left aside. Due to his injury, Leo had already sorted out all the documents on his computer. Right now, Tony sat behind his office table and looked at Myra expectantly.

“It’s nothing; just a cold call.” Evidently, Myra was not going to heed Shelly’s instruction to meet at that random café, so she chose to ignore everything.

Meanwhile, Tony didn’t bother to press further and he left the conversation as it was.

On the other end, Shelly sat waiting at the café all by herself. Normally, she was the one who turned up late to meet the other party. However, she felt quite worried about Gemma’s situation so this time, she arrived half an hour earlier and waited there. She waited there until 11.30 AM but there was no sign of Myra. Angered, she gave Myra multiple phone calls but it was to no avail because the latter didn’t pick up the phone at all.

This was the first time that Shelly had experienced such snub from anyone; at this point, her anger toward Myra reached boiling point. Not only did she cause so much pain toward Gemma, now she’s behaving so rudely to me! She couldn’t control her temper and her chest heaved up and down angrily as she also recalled the problems that her husband and son had faced at work due to Myra’s intervention. After considering the situation for a while, she then dialed another number.

The phone rang for quite some time before the other party answered. By the time the call was picked up, Shelly was no longer so desperate. She gritted her teeth for a moment before she spoke haughtily. “Director Chase, I’m Gideon’s mother and our surname is Walton; I’m sure you must have heard of me before.”

Sean had just walked out of the conference room when he received this call. As soon as he heard her words, his eyes narrowed into slits. “Mrs. Walton?”

“Looks like you’re quite smart, Director Chase.” Shelly forced a smile and as she continued, “I had an idea that just came to my mind recently so I wanted to seek your cooperation. Are you interested in working together, Director Chase?”

Sean signaled to Richard to indicate that he could leave first. Then, the former walked back to his office. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in his office and casually commented, “What sort of business plan do you have in mind, Mrs. Walton?”

“I heard that you used to be married to Miss Myra Stark but after a series of incidents, the two of you ended up getting divorced. I’ve noticed that you’ve been quite protective of her even after the divorce. Am I correct in my guess that you’re still fond of her and that you are after a reconciliation?” Shelly tried hard to calm down and she spoke slowly and patiently to Sean.

Myra does have some skills up her sleeves; not only is she able to win Tony’s heart, there’s even another excellent man that’s still clinging onto her! I’ve even heard that Sean’s going through divorce proceedings with his current wife. Shelly’s expression at that moment was disdainful and mocking as the thoughts ran wild in her mind.
