Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 383

“Well, do you know why she won’t come back to me, Mom?” Sean’s face darkened the instant he heard Eve’s words, and he stared at her without concealing the fierce glint in his eyes. “Would Myra and I have come to this point in our relationship had you not kept being secret about the matter with Lyla’s baby?! Aren’t you the one who caused all this, Mom?!”

“I know that you hate me, Sean, but what happened is already in the past… Now that Myra doesn’t want to return to your side, she won’t come back to you even if you give the Chase Group to her!” Eve’s heart was full of desolation and fear as she saw her son behaving in such a manner. She was afraid that the Chase Group would be reduced to ruins in such a way, and that they would go back to being poverty-stricken as they were a few years ago. “Listen to me, Sean—don’t do anything stupid. Now that you guys have divorced each other, you two are no longer related. Don’t put the Chase Group in jeopardy for Myra’s sake. The Chase Group is the result of you and your father’s hard work, so how could you have the heart to do this?!”

“The former Chase Group is already finished, and the current Chase Group… Mom, you know very well who should take the credit for the Chase Group’s restoration to its current state. Myra wants the Stark Group, and this is her only chance.” Sean didn’t avert his eyes as a flicker of determination flashed across them.

“Even if Myra should take the credit, you guys have squared up whatever should be squared up between you two during the divorce! This isn’t her only chance; even if it is, it has nothing to do with you! As far as I know, Tony is completely infatuated with Myra, so she’ll definitely take advantage of him. With the Hart Group stepping in, you don’t have to help her at all. Listen to my advice, Sean. Calm down—”

“I have never been so calm…” A trace of anguish crept into Sean’s heart as he knew what his mother was thinking. However, he deeply realized these days how unbearable it was to live without Myra. The tenderness and affection that she once showed him cut his heart cruelly like knives. It was said that one would never know how important a woman was to them until she left completely, and Sean was deeply aware of it now. Not wanting to say anything else to Eve, he rudely shoved her away.

As a result of the hard push, Eve bumped into Sean’s desk, causing unbearable pain in her elbow. However, she couldn’t care less about the pain and yelled at her son, “You’ll regret it, Sean! That woman isn’t worthy of you treating her like this at all!”

“Whether she’s worthy of it or not is my own business. You’d better stop coming to the company, Mom,” Sean replied coldly at the door before leaving his office right away.

Eve gritted her teeth behind him. It never occurred to her before that Myra would have such a great influence on her son! Myra was about to get married, yet her son was still unwilling to give up!

“It must be her! Myra must have done something to Sean!” Eve’s heart was so full of hatred that she was burning with rage. Her family never had peace for a moment ever since Myra married her son; she had a hard time sending this scourge away, yet she didn’t know what this scourge had done to her son!

Eve was at her wits’ end. She wanted to stop her son from making decisions, but she wasn’t in charge of the company right now, so she couldn’t do anything at all. As she headed downstairs, she saw the familiar woman in the Chase Group’s lobby. In an instant, her eyes filled with rage, and she walked toward the front desk furiously.

Myra used to work at the Chase Group, but there was no trace of nostalgia within her when she came back to this building. She asked the receptionist in a businesslike tone, “Sorry to trouble you, but I’d like to see Director Chase.”

Of course, the receptionist knew Myra as well. Upon hearing Myra’s words, she thought for a moment and called Richard upstairs. After getting the order from above, she hung up and looked at Myra with a smile. “Director Chase would like to meet you upstairs, Miss… Stark.”

“Thank you.”

After expressing her thanks, Myra turned around and was about to walk upstairs when someone suddenly grabbed her long hair from behind with tremendous strength. Myra was caught unprepared, and her scalp was so painful that she trembled all over.
