Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 358

Leo remained silent as he mused, Director Tony wants to set up a flower shop, but doesn’t want too many clients to know the address. I guess he’s doing this just to pamper Miss Myra. Although he was already used to seeing how Tony would dote on Myra, Leo couldn’t help but exclaim mentally, since his past self would never have believed Tony was capable of such deeds toward a woman.

However, Leo quickly carried out Tony’s orders, starting from finding a suitable shoplot. Myra knew nothing about it as she worked on arranging the flowers into another vase before bringing it out from the lounge, only to find that the atmosphere outside the lounge was different from when she left.

In fact, the atmosphere in Tony’s office was slightly heavy. With a morose look, Tony held an almost hostile gaze in his narrow eyes. His features were stiff and serious when he tapped on the surface of the table with the index and middle finger of his left hand, which produced a series of light yet unnerving tapping noises. At the same time, his eyes were narrowed into slits as he stared forward dangerously.

Standing in front of him was a woman with a pale face. She was in a champagne-colored office wear that looked both formal and elegant. Her curls cascaded down her back, which gave her the allure of a mature woman. However, her body was stiff, and there was a hint of sorrow in her eyes. The woman was no stranger to Myra, as she was the director of the finance department, Ivy Jameson.

Perhaps because Tony noticed Myra’s presence, he seemed less gloomy. Nonetheless, he picked up the document in front of him before throwing it onto the table in front of Ivy. In an indifferent tone, he ordered, “Redo this report. From tomorrow onward, you will start working at Springdale City.”

“I won’t go to Springdale City!” Having noticed Myra’s presence, a hint of agony fleeted across Ivy’s gaze. Biting her lip, she continued to stare at the man in front of her stubbornly.

“Miss Jameson, this is the company’s decision.” Tony’s face fell, his eyes holding a look of dismay.

“Is this the company’s decision, or is it yours?” Ivy gritted her teeth before continuing, “Tony, are you transferring me because you can’t change my mind? What are you afraid of? Is it because you’re worried that having me around might displease her?”

All of a sudden, Ivy pointed at Myra, who was startled by her movement. Her eyes reddened as she spoke. “All I wish for is to be able to pursue you freely! Is that a crime? I didn’t do anything to Miss Stark! Everybody has their freedom to love someone! I know you don’t like me, but that’s your problem! You can’t stop me from liking you! Besides, Myra isn’t a good match for you! Tony, won’t you get someone else even if it’s not me? Do you know what those people outside are saying about you? They say—”

“That’s enough!” A chilly look enveloped his features as he glared at Ivy with his piercing eyes. Standing up, he bellowed, “Get out!”

“I won’t!” Ivy finally mustered up enough courage, as she knew she would never have the chance to express her feelings again if she didn’t do it now.

She had loved and waited for Tony for many years. Unlike Gemma, she would never resort to underhanded tactics, but she loved him as much as Gemma did. If it were up to her, she wished Tony would find another woman even if he didn’t like her. She had no idea why he would even want someone who was a divorcee. To be honest, she didn’t even get why Myra was considered better than her or any other woman.

“You were the one who was constantly providing for her! What has she ever done for you? Tony, will someone like her still be around you when you hit a low in life?” Ivy was yelling at him with a hoarse voice.

Upon hearing that, Myra clenched one of her fists. Then, she walked up to Tony while holding the vase before setting it down on the corner of his desk. After that, she began tidying up the documents in front of him which were messed up during his outburst.
