Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 448

Realizing that Tony didn’t seem too interested to speak about his job, Myra decided to shut her mouth. He was busy right now anyway, so she didn’t want to disturb him. As she had her cell phone with her, there were many things she could do to entertain herself, and she didn’t feel bored at all. She would never be bored when Tony was with her.

In the end, she decided to play some games as it was a good choice to pass time. While she was fighting vigorously in her game, Tony was fighting hard in his work.

Without knowing how many rounds she had played, he finally lifted his head and smiled. “Let’s go home together when I’m done, Myra,” he said loudly, but she was so engrossed with the game that she didn’t hear him at all.

Therefore, he paced in front of her and repeated everything he just said. Only then did she look up, and she realized that her neck felt a little sore from looking down at her cell phone the whole time. “Are we going home?” she asked.

“Well, we’re not in a rush to go home. I’m bringing you to a place,” he said mysteriously, and she mentally prepared herself for a surprise at his words.

When they were in the car, Myra wondered what kind of surprise he had prepared for her as she stole a peek at his handsome face from the side. After twenty minutes of driving, Tony brought her to an alley, and she followed him ignorantly, not even knowing what he would do next.

If she had to walk alone in this deep alley, she might be a little afraid. It was already late, and the alley was dark. When the car stopped in somebody’s courtyard, only then did she show some reaction. “You’re taking me here?” she asked in disbelief because everything before her eyes right now was a little unbelievable.

“Even a dark alley can’t deter one from the hunt for good food,” he said teasingly.

After getting out of the car, she saw that the place didn’t look like any regular restaurant, and when she walked in, it was as though she had walked into somebody’s house. Looking at Tony in confusion, she had no idea what he was doing now. This was the first time they went to someone’s house because of a food hunt.

Entering the house, she started observing the interior and was almost sure that this place emphasized on a homey environment instead of a restaurant because it had a strong homely atmosphere.

“I brought you here to try some home-cooked dishes, and it’s the authentic ones. There must be a dish which you liked when you were young,” he whispered into her ears. There were too many memories from when she was young, and she couldn’t recall most of it. Even Cameron wouldn’t pay any special attention to her tastes in food.

“What about Lisa and Sebastian?” she asked. Suddenly, they popped into her mind because they had to go home punctually for meals every day, especially for the healthy soups and stews Lisa would prepare. Even more so when it was dinner time as they would request them to be home for dinner almost every day, and Myra had always paid special attention to do this.

But this time, Tony actually brought her out to try home-cooked dishes in a regular home, and she looked at him in disbelief. I wonder what excuse he used with the old couple.

“They have their lives to live as well, and they’re going out on a date today. So we’re going to sort out dinner ourselves,” he replied simply.

“Okay. They make me so envious of them.” She was really envious of them from the bottom of her heart because they were possibly the most blissful couple she had ever met.

Together since they were young, Sebastian still spoiled Lisa as he always had even though they had lost their looks to time. I wonder if someone will spoil me like this one day, Myra thought as she looked at Tony next to her. He’s the best thing that ever happened to me. At that thought, her eyes turned gentle the next second as she stared at him.

“Is this place really good?” she asked cautiously. Since it was Tony who brought her here, this had to be a good place.

Speaking of food, it seemed as though Tony was an expert in it, but unbeknownst to her, he was doing it because of her. In order to let her eat well, he would pay special attention to places with good food.

Entering another person’s home, they scanned around at the interior, which looked like a regular home. Businesses nowadays were full of ideas, and according to Tony, this place only accepted one order a day in addition to a reservation ahead of time.

Tony had made a reservation here a long time ago because he heard that the food was amazing. Now that they finally had a day where they didn’t have to head home directly after work, he had to use this opportunity to relax. It’s inconvenient to live with the elderly, indeed, he thought.

In the meantime, Sebastian and Lisa, who were enjoying their romantic time together, suddenly sneezed in unison. Using a piece of napkin, Lisa wiped her nose. This time, Sebastian had arranged for a candlelit dinner like how the youngsters did.

With a long table between them, Sebastian gazed at Lisa nervously and asked, “Are you catching a cold from the air-conditioning?”

He had always spoiled her like a little girl despite having been together for such a long time. Just like a fairytale, Lisa would always be his princess in their marriage. Even at this age, they would still go out on a date sometimes to spruce up their relationship. In his lifetime, Sebastian had spent more effort on Lisa than on Hart Group, thinking of ways and means to brighten her up. For him, the biggest joy was to see Lisa living happily without worries forever.
