Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 447

Noticing how quickly they were picking things up, Sharon decided to teach them another form of flower arrangement. Both of them were agreeable and paid full attention to her class with enthusiasm.

The two girls who were chatting away happily earlier were now quiet all of a sudden. Flower arrangement was something which could cultivate a person’s temper and calm down a troubled heart.

Occasionally, both of them would exchange looks at each other, but they were mainly focused on the work in their hands as they followed the instructions diligently and appeared to be doing a very good job. Heather seemed to be more gifted, and even Myra was a little ashamed. Still, they both enjoyed the process very much and looked like they were in high spirits.

When they were finished with their work, a satisfied smile spread on their faces. Myra turned to look at Heather, and they both let out a small breath. One should focus fully in order to get something done well.

“That’s all for today. Both of you pick things up very quickly,” Sharon said politely. If all her students were as smart as them, then she would have less troubles.

After Sharon left, Heather moved in closer to Myra. Time seemed to be flying, and it was already lunchtime.

“Let’s go out for lunch,” she suggested, feeling a little hungry.

Myra nodded in reply. Both of them had very similar tastes in food, so it was not a problem to be eating together, and they both liked the food which the other had ordered.

While eating, they chatted away, and Myra had a gut feeling that Heather was hiding something from her. However, since Heather didn’t open up, she didn’t feel it was appropriate to ask about it. Perhaps if she paid a little more attention, she would be able to figure it out, and she casually asked her what was up with her recently.

“Did you meet up with the partners recently?” Myra asked in concern. She wasn’t a nosy-parker, but she was unable to suppress her curiosity.

Maybe only matters which concerned Heather were able to trigger her curiosity. If it was somebody else, she wouldn’t give two hoots about it.

“I’m thinking of meeting them in the afternoon.” Looking at her plate, Heather noticed that Myra had picked quite a lot of food off her plate, and she also felt that something was amiss with Myra, wondering what was on her mind.

Chatting away happily, Heather had basically told Myra everything that happened to her recently, except the part regarding Matthias. On the other hand, it didn’t sound like anything was out of the norm to Myra, and she thought that she must have been oversensitive.

An enjoyable afternoon passed by just like that, and even though Heather had to return to the office after lunch, she wasn’t in that much of a rush.

Hence, as she glanced at her watch and calculated her timing, she said to Myra, “After dropping you off at the florist, I’ll be just in time to return to the office.”

After all the hassle, she drove back to the office, and many employees were still taking their afternoon nap when she returned. Sneaking back to her own office, she then saw that there was a pile of documents on her desk, and she felt a deep sense of lethargy.

Today was another busy day, and she was long used to this as she quickly switched into her working mode. It seemed that there were more issues after she returned to Bradfort; there seemed no end to it as she went through them one by one.

Dragging her sluggish body, probably because she hadn’t been sleeping well recently, Heather rubbed her temples. There was something amiss with the way Myra was looking at her today, but she had purposely acted as though she was in high spirits. Hopefully, she didn’t realize anything unusual, she prayed.

Her head started to throb at the thought that Myra would eventually find out about her relationship with Matthias in the future, and she wondered how Myra would think about it at that time.

Keeping away her disarrayed thoughts, she sank back into work mode because there was still a bunch of work left for her to do. Blake was rather good at making good use of people; he was the one who asked Heather over to be in charge of a certain project. As it turned out, he dumped all other irrelevant chores on her as well.

She stared at the menial tasks on her right in annoyance, knowing that he was pushing irrelevant work on her to delay her time. What a chore, she thought.

This project was the biggest project for Langston Group at the moment, and she really couldn’t spare any attention to deal with other work. Still, Blake had deliberately made things difficult for her in this manner.

Now, he was completely ignoring the interests of the company, and she had no idea what was on his mind that he just had to put her down in front of others before he would give up.

Meanwhile, Myra was still at the florist, attending to the plants and flowers to soothe her mind and body. Recently, she had sloughed her heart out for Stark Group and devoted herself to work. It had been a long while since she could relax so comfortably just as now.

Looking at the flowers in her hand, the arc on her lips blossomed into a contented smile. Relaxing occasionally helped to focus on work the next day.

Today, she had simply decided not to think about Stark Group but attend to the flowers in her florist. In the end, she was even smelling like flowers.

The scent of the flowers drifted into her nose, and she took a deep breath. Then, she suddenly thought of the big, comfortable bed at home. It must be comfortable to sleep in it, she thought. The whole day, she was taking things so slow that she felt a little lazy.

What’s Tony up to now? she wondered as she continued attending to the flowers in her hands. He said that he’ll pick me up in the evening to go home together.

Myra liked a life like this day by day, and she couldn’t get used to days without Tony. As though stuck to each other, Tony would avoid business trips and stay by her side at all times.
