Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 470

As Myra’s vision blurred, she fell into Heather’s arms, hearing the latter’s anxious voice calling her name.

The sudden onset of pain was identical to the headache she had experienced before, but this time, it affected her whole body. Myra gripped her chest tightly, the pain threatening to cease her heartbeat. Without delay, Heather lifted her friend up.

She then took Myra to the hospital in her car, but something peculiar happened. A short while after arriving at the hospital, Myra could feel that the pain had vanished.

It was exactly like her headache last time, which left as suddenly as it came. Heather’s eyebrows creased in a frown as she wondered what was going on with Myra.

“What did you see at the rockery?” Myra was staring in a particular direction when she fainted, but when Heather followed her gaze, she didn’t see anything out of the ordinary.

“A cave,” Myra answered with a hollow look in her eyes.

The frown on Heather’s brows deepened. How could a simple cave cause her to become like this? she wondered. She was in a hurry to get Myra to the hospital, so she didn’t look too closely, but what else could a rockery contain but rocks and caves?

“Don’t let Tony know of this.” Myra did not wish to worry him on the day right before their wedding.

“Okay.” Heather hadn’t contacted Tony in her hurry, and now that Myra had told her not to let him know of this, she decided not to do anything unnecessary.

“Has this happened before?” Acting like a doctor, Heather asked her friend sternly. The incident had given her a huge fright.

“You saw it once before. You were also the one who took me to the hospital that time,” Myra answered word by word.

At that moment, she was lying on the hospital bed. The doctor had left after confirming that there was nothing out of the ordinary, so now Myra was resting to regain her strength.

“I’m really worried…” Heather hesitated, deeply worried about Myra’s current condition. However, any proper treatment would have to be delayed because of Myra’s pregnancy.

Moreover, Myra had been pregnant for a few months, so it wouldn’t be plausible to remove the child; it wasn’t some serious illness anyway.

“Don’t worry,” Myra comforted her friend.

Heather’s hands were still trembling as they held Myra’s. She was so very afraid, for Myra was like a dear sister to her, and she would not allow any accidents to happen to her.

“I’m sorry. It’s my fault for dragging you back to school. That other incident was also my fault,” Heather apologized. She truly believed that the blame was on her.

The series of incidents reminded her of Matthias, and she suspected that Myra was experiencing the aftereffects of forgetting Matthias.

Heather did not dare to continue her train of thought. She was sure that it was bad news, and she kept blaming herself. There was a deep sense of guilt inside her as she realized that she had hurt Myra despite treasuring her.

But she must not tell her the truth; she mustn’t say anything about Matthias. She looked at Myra meaningfully, guilt written all over her face.

“This was a coincidence; it’s not your fault.” Myra continued to comfort Heather.

In her hazy consciousness at the rockery, she felt like she saw a young man with a pale and melancholic face. The face was familiar yet strange, and when she tried to think back on it, she could not recall any other details.

Heather was supporting Myra as they walked out of the hospital. I shouldn’t have brought Myra to the school. She racked her mind for clues and anything related to this incident. Myra had met Matthias a few times before, and it was at one such meeting where Myra experienced the headache.

This time, Myra’s whole body was thrown into pain after seeing the cave. What was the relationship between these two incidents? Heather couldn’t find the answer. If this was really related to Matthias, then he must have brought Myra to the rockery before.

In order to prove her theory, Heather drove to Locke Group after dropping Myra off at her home. She hadn’t contacted Matthias in a while, and this was a sudden visit too. Unfortunately, Matthias was out of office.

Matthias’ assistant Lara was the one who received Heather, and she was very polite to her. However, Heather could keenly feel Lara’s enmity toward her.

“When is Director Locke coming back?” She didn’t want to waste too much time here; she had to see Matthias now.

“I’m not sure. Maybe he’ll be back soon, or maybe he’ll take a few hours.” Lara was ambiguous in her reply.

She saw the anxiety in Heather’s expression. She had noticed Matthias’ decadent attitude as of late, and, unable to think of any other culprit, she was sure that Heather was the one who caused him to be like this.

She did not blame Heather for stealing Matthias’ heart, but she was angry at her for not appreciating him enough. This was why Heather unknowingly became Lara’s subject of hate.

“Can’t you contact him?” Heather asked anxiously. Lara wasn’t like this before, so why the enmity now?

“Director Locke is in an important meeting, so I dare not disturb him,” Lara answered, faking a smile.

Heather understood the meaning behind Lara’s words, so she said without thinking, “Then I’ll call him myself.” To her, Lara had been energetic and loveable before, but now she was just bitter.

“He had probably turned off his phone.” After saying that, Lara left.
