Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 384

Myra looked at the man before her with an apathetic expression as though she didn’t see anything just now. She merely said impassively to him, “I have given Mrs. Chase the document you gave me, Director Chase. I won’t accept the share transfer agreement; I may have my attorney cooperate in the follow-up procedures after you amend it. I just hope that you won’t bring us into more trouble by making such issues again in the future.”

With that, she turned around and left the Chase Group right away. She believed that with Eve’s current hostility toward her, the latter would do everything she could to force Sean to take back the document after she read it—this would save her a lot of trouble.

However, she had just taken two steps when her arm was grabbed from behind. “Myra, wait—”

“Let go of me!” She reflexively broke free of Sean’s grasp and looked at him warily.

Sean felt a bit sad when he saw the look in Myra’s eyes. Then, as if the apathy he displayed toward Eve just now no longer existed, he said to Myra with a pained expression, “Myra, I’m already in the process of divorcing Lyla. I’ll go through the formalities very soon—”

“This is none of my business.” Myra shook her head. Back when she loved him, she hoped that he could transfer his affections for Lyla to her. However, she no longer had feelings for him right now. Even if Sean offered the entire world to her at this moment, she wouldn’t be swayed anymore.

“I only hated your guts back then because of her concealment!” Sean no longer touched Myra, but his hands clenched tightly into fists at his sides. “Had I known back then that she was lying to me, I wouldn’t have been so cold toward you for so many years, Myra—”

“You’ve said these words to me before, Director Chase,” Myra interrupted him impatiently. Then, she lowered her head and pretended to check the time. “I have something else to attend to later, so I’ll be leaving first.”

Sean stood in front of her right away. “Wait a minute!”

They were in the Chase Group’s ground floor lobby, so many saw their dispute as they came and went. Myra felt deeply uncomfortable, for she didn’t want to give rise to any slanderous gossip; even if there was nothing between them, she didn’t want Tony to get involved in this and be remarked on. When Sean tried to stop her, she took out her cell phone right away. “I have nothing to talk to you about, Director Chase. If you don’t get out of my way, I can only call the police.”

Sean had a hurt and remorseful look in his eyes. “Myra, do you really want our relationship to come to this point?!”

“You’ve misunderstood me, Director Chase—I don’t have any other purpose. I just want to leave, that’s all.” Myra looked emotionless before she continued, “It doesn’t matter if you want to talk to me about our past or Tony, Director Chase; none of this is necessary. Also, stop keeping my affairs in your mind. Don’t do what you did with the Stark Group’s shares again, for I don’t want anyone else to misunderstand that there’s something between us.”

“Misunderstand? Did Tony misunderstand you?” Sean asked immediately.

Myra let out a faint sneer, though one didn’t know whether it was a sneer of ridicule or a sneer with emotion. She looked Sean square in the eye. “He has always believed me. Perhaps you’re unwilling to admit it, but the days I’ve spent with him are the happiest days of my life. I love him, Director Chase.”

I love him… I love him… I love him… Sean had been hearing this sentence a lot recently, for Myra explicitly said she liked and loved Tony. Myra was right; he just didn’t want to admit it. He thought that there was still a chance for them to get back together…

“Myra, you were the one who single-handedly saved the Chase Group. If you want it, I’m willing to transfer the entire Chase Group under your name—”

“I don’t want it,” Myra interrupted him again with an expressionless face. “I don’t want something that isn’t mine—especially when it’s yours, Director Chase.”

With that, she left right away amid Sean’s stupefaction.
