Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 409

Sensing Heather’s strange reaction, Myra glanced sideways at her before she replied to Matthias.

“Director Locke, are you here for furniture shopping too?” Heather was even more shocked when she saw how calm Myra was.

“What did you just call him?” Heather pointed at Matthias and asked.

“What’s the matter, Heather?” Myra asked in concern. Heather is acting strange.

Matthias walked up to them and sized up Heather, who was standing next to Myra, but it seemed as if he didn’t know her. Suddenly, Heather realized that she was being rude, so she hurriedly came back to her senses and smiled at Myra. “He reminds me of someone.”

Matthias was even more doubtful. It was as if he didn’t know Heather at all, but it was impossible to forget a girl with a pretty face like Heather’s.

“Hello, nice to meet you. You can call me Matthias.” Matthias introduced himself to Heather with a bright smile on his face.

Myra had an indescribable feeling. For some reason, she felt that Matthias’s attitude toward Heather was different, and Heather’s reaction was even more intriguing.

“Matthias. That’s a beautiful name,” Heather said casually as she stared at Matthias’s face. However, Matthias looked completely calm and relaxed.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you.” Matthias continued to speak politely. He was acting slightly different from the Matthais that Myra knew. When talking to Matthias, Myra always had a feeling that he was only pretending to be polite and secretly had bad intentions.

However, at that moment, Matthias seemed to deliberately hide his evil charm and show off his bookish side. It was an odd sight. Even his smile looked much more genuine than before.

“Mr. Locke, your manners are impeccable.” It was obvious that Heather was being sarcastic. She didn’t bother about Matthias’s dignity.

As soon as Heather finished speaking, she grabbed Myra’s arm. Then, with a dazzling smile, she said to her, “Myra, I haven’t decided what kind of furniture I want to buy today. I’ll go home and think about it.” As she spoke, she glanced at Matthias through the corner of her eyes provocatively.

“Where should we go now?” Myra looked at Heather in confusion. Looking at Heather’s cunning smile, Myra soon gave in because she knew that Heather was definitely up to something.

“I’m thirsty. Let’s go get something to drink,” Heather replied without any hesitation. Then, she pulled Myra’s arm to urge her to leave.

Myra hurriedly turned to Matthias and said, “Goodbye, Director Locke. Have fun shopping.”

Out of politeness, Myra said goodbye to Matthias.

“Why don’t I join you? I have already picked out the things I want.” Matthias quickened his pace and soon caught up to them.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Locke. We are going to shop for underwear later. We would feel embarrassed to have a man around.” As Heather spoke, she waved at Matthias with a sly smile on her face.

Hearing that, Matthias nodded softly and replied, “Well then, I won’t be interrupting you. Let’s have a cup of coffee together some other time.” Then, he looked up and waved at Heather while staring into her eyes the entire time.

Matthias watched as Myra and Heather gradually walked further away. All of a sudden, the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced with a solemn expression. He glared at Heather and muttered through gritted teeth, “That b*tch is even more annoying than she used to be.”

“Director Locke, do you still want your things?”

Matthias, who was already in a bad mood, felt even more annoyed after hearing this question. “No, throw them all away.”

At that instant, he desperately wanted to throw the things he bought onto Heather’s beautiful face.

Some people continued to stay beautiful even after they aged, and some people continued to be perfect until the day they died. Naturally, Heather was someone that many people envied and hated.

“How did that b*tch recognize me?” Matthias mumbled to himself. He was an entirely different person than who he used to be and was even much more good-looking than before. Logically, it would be hard to recognize him. However, Heather had recognized him at first glance.

That woman has sharp eyes! It’s been years since I last met her. She is even more beautiful than she used to be. Heather is blessed by God.

“Heather, do you know who Matthias is?” Myra asked seriously.

“Yes,” Heather readily admitted. “I met him once in Italy.”

Upon hearing that, Myra let out a sigh of relief. She thought that Matthias was their childhood friend. After all, Myra and Heather used to be inseparable in their teenage years. They shared everything, including their friends.
