Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 385

Tony didn’t ask her why she went to the Chase Group. “Well, it’s good to go back and rest early. I’ll go back early tonight.”

The corners of Myra’s mouth turned up slightly when she heard his reply. When he finished his sentence, she immediately asked, “Aren’t you going to ask me why I went to the Chase Group?”

“Why else would you have gone other than to return the share transfer agreement that Sean gave you?” Tony replied nonchalantly as if he didn’t give a damn about this matter or Sean himself.

Myra smiled. “You actually guessed it right. All right then, come back early tonight.”

“Okay.” Tony hung up directly without saying anything else.

When Myra hung up and turned around, Sebastian was still standing beside her. Once she put down the receiver, he glared at Myra and snorted. “You’re about to get married, yet you keep going to the Chase Group. Aren’t you worried that your fiancé will be jealous?”

“Tony isn’t jealous at all; he didn’t even ask me what I was doing there,” Myra replied with a smile. “He trusts me, so you’ll trust me as well, won’t you, Old Master Hart?”

“Did I say that I don’t trust you?” Sebastian gave Myra another glare with a stern expression.

Myra gave a soft smile. “Even so, I should tell you what happened, Old Master Hart. Sean bought a lot of the Stark Group’s shares recently, and he transferred them under my name. Hence, I went there today to return the shares to him.”

Sebastian’s eyes widened at once. “What?! Is that brat still pestering you?!”

“Well, you can say that.” Myra sat down on the sofa and massaged her sore feet.

“Hmph! What a thick-skinned man he is!” Sebastian was displeased at the thought of Sean, for it felt awful that someone kept thinking about his granddaughter-in-law. He looked at Myra seriously and said, “Now that you’ve decided to be together with my grandson, you mustn’t transfer your affections to someone else again. Do you get it? You’ll never find someone else like this grandson of mine in the future no matter how hard you try.”

“Don’t you dislike Tony, Old Master Hart?” Myra feigned puzzlement as she winked at Sebastian. “You used to wish that you never had a grandson like him, but now you’re praising him to the skies.”

Sebastian gave a snort before retorting with a straight face, “Since when did I dislike him?”

Myra was somewhat speechless. At last, she knew from whom Tony inherited his shamelessness.

In the evening, Myra went to the kitchen to help with dinner preparations. Suddenly, her cell phone rang. When she ran over and picked up the phone, she saw that it was a phone call from Elliot.

Elliot’s usually casual-sounding voice became somewhat solemn, and it was quite rare. “Myra, Tony might be home later tonight; something came up at the company at the last moment. By the way, he asked me to tell you that you guys don’t have to wait for him to have dinner. He’ll order some takeout with us and have some food to fill his stomach.”

When she heard Elliot’s tone, Myra surmised that something serious had happened to the company. Thinking that it wasn’t good to eat takeout, she suggested, “Would you like me to deliver dinner to you guys? Where are you all? Are you guys at the Hart Group?”

Elliot thought for a moment before turning her down. “It’s not necessary, Myra. Something might happen tonight, so don’t leave the Hart Residence. Tony will probably go back tonight.”

“What’s going to happen?” Myra had her heart in her mouth the instant she heard Elliot’s words. Elliot was seldom so serious; he wouldn’t speak in such a tone unless something serious would happen. “Did anything happen to Tony? Why are you the one calling me? Where is he?”

“Don’t worry, Myra. Nothing happened to Tony; he’s now helping Shawn deal with some matters. Let’s put it this way—the matter tonight is very important. If things go smoothly, the Walton Family, the newcomer to Bradfort City, will suffer heavy losses tomorrow afternoon.” Elliot knitted his brows. He knew that he couldn’t tell Myra the whole story; if she insisted on coming to the Hart Group, he would have nothing to compensate Tony with once anything unexpected happened midway through this and something happened to her. Besides, they hadn’t gotten their hands on key evidence to bring a lawsuit against the Walton Family, though Lyla was already working hard on that. As long as they obtained the evidence, it would be easy to sue the Walton Family.
