Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 39

“Mr. Hart, what do you mean by those words?”

Sasha could no longer maintain the smile on her face. No matter how good she was at concealing her emotions, she could still hear the huge disdain from Tony’s words.

“It’s nothing. I’m just like you—I have never taken the bus either,” Tony answered faintly with a sense of coldness in his eyes.

At that moment, she tightly clenched her fists on each side because she planned to make Tony her man tonight. Since all men are visual creatures, I thought that I had it in the bag, but instead, it backfired on me and caused me to be humiliated!

Looking at the man in front of her, she was displeased. I had planned for tonight’s matter for a long time, but if I still insist on staying here…

“Mr. Hart…” Her long eyelashes slightly drooped as it cast an aggrieved shadow over her face. “Mr. Hart, it seems like you’ve misunderstood me. I haven’t done anything with other men—”

“That’s none of my business.” Tony interrupted before he lowered his head to glance at his watch. “I called room service 5 minutes ago and it’ll probably be here soon. Miss Hay, if you insist on staying here, suit yourself.”

His voice was calm and indifferent, causing Sasha’s face to flush immediately. In the end, she could only stomp her foot and quickly leave with the tray in her hand.

After seeing her leave, Tony was not in a hurry to return to his room and shut the door. Instead, he loitered outside and lit up a cigarette.

The hallway returned to silence within seconds.

Meanwhile, Myra felt happy for the weirdest reason after quietly watching the entire scene behind her door.

As expected, Sasha is here to seduce Tony. She was initially worried because it would be detrimental to the Stark Group if Sasha managed to seduce him. Surprisingly, he not only rejected her, but even ruthlessly crushed all her hopes of marrying him. In that case, the two companies will be able to fairly compete with each other.

Looking outside the door, Tony was already done with his cigarette, but she could see that his posture as he smoked a cigarette was sexy with his throat rolling upward and downward. Amidst the smoke, his distinctive face looked even more dashing and three-dimensional.

Myra felt a thump in her heart and noticed that her breathing had stopped for a second. Her clothes accidentally touched the shoe rack at the entrance, causing a sandal to fall off with a whap.

Immediately, she could feel the man’s casual gaze outside the door. After her quick shock, she closed the door in a hurry and leaned against it while she breathed heavily. Then, she glared at the sandal on the floor with frustration.

It was quiet in the hallway earlier, which means that he definitely heard me. I can only hope that he doesn’t realize that I’ve been eavesdropping on him.

As she thought about it again, she could not help but feel angry at herself. Why did I decide to do such a dishonest thing?!

However… As soon as she remembered how embarrassed Sasha looked when she ran off, her mood improved inexplicably.

In the meantime, the man, who was still smoking outside, simply flicked the head of the cigarette before he slowly revealed a charming smile with his dashing lips.

The next day, Myra woke up early in the morning. After washing herself and packing her stuff, she decided to head downstairs to the restaurant to have her breakfast.

The moment she opened her door, she immediately halted her steps.

As her head was down, the first thing that she saw outside the door was a pair of handmade suede shoes belonging to a man.

When Myra looked upward, Tony’s dashing yet cold face immediately came into her view. With a cigarette stuck between his index and middle finger, he leaned against the wall next to her room. His smoking posture was as elegant and sexy as ever, but this time, his usual restrained manner was gone and it was displaced by a frivolous attitude.

When she lifted her head, he happened to blow a mouthful of smoke on her face, causing her to cough and her face to darken. “Mr. Hart, why are you here?”

“Someone misses you.” Tony straightened his body and stood a head taller than Myra. As he condescendingly looked at her from above, there seemed to be a hint of casualness to his expression.

However, it caused her to be on pins and needles as she smiled awkwardly. “Is that so?” I don’t know what he is trying to do, but since that night, I have become more aware of how dangerous he is. Should I go downstairs or head back to my room?
