Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 494

None of them mentioned anything about Bradfort City. In fact, there were a few occasions where Myra almost did, but she quickly swallowed her words. After all, Tony had previously told her that the problems were never-ending; even if he solved them all, something similar would probably arise again in the future.

“Now that we’re far away from Bradfort, you seem to be in a much better mood than I am.” Myra and Tony were having an idle talk about their everyday life. Indeed, Tony had been smiling a lot more often recently.

“Of course—it feels good to finally relax after working day and night,” said Tony in satisfaction. More importantly, he was blessed to have Myra by his side every day.

To Tony, any day spent together with Myra was a happy one. When he thought about this, he swept her off her feet suddenly, earning a surprised shriek from her.

“Be a good girl and go to sleep.” Tony headed to the bed with Myra in his arms.

Then, he carefully put her down and leaned in closer to her, nuzzling the tip of her nose affectionately with his.

“You usually sleep in until noon; why did you wake up in the middle of the night today?” As he spoke, his voice was soft and pampering.

Myra wrinkled her nose, for she was feeling quite ticklish from Tony’s gentle scratches. “You make it sound like I sleep a lot.” She was nothing like that—Tony was exaggerating and Myra was a little unsatisfied with that.

“Since you’re awake, why don’t we do something fun?” Tony said in a suggestive tone as he snuggled up to Myra even more. Right now, he was acting like a big baby in front of her, demanding her attention like a little boy.

“Stop it—I can’t breathe,” Myra complained. Tony was pressing his face against hers, and she had a strong urge to push him away with a slap.

“Fine, I’ll let you go.” Tony pulled away and propped himself up on the bed. He stared at Myra condescendingly as she lay beneath him.

Myra immediately turned away and faced her back toward Tony while pulling up the comforter; she didn’t want to hear any of Tony’s sweet talk. From the sound of it, it was obvious that he didn’t mean anything well—Myra had been tricked by him far too many times.

“I’m sleepy. I’m going to sleep.” Myra hugged the comforter close to her chest. She had to stand firm by her decision, and she couldn’t fall into his trap again.

In response to her denial, Tony stroked her back gently, his fingers caressing her body smoothly. Myra wriggled momentarily under his touch and tried to shrug away his hand, but it didn’t seem like Tony had any plans to stop harassing her.

“I’m so tired, and I want to sleep.” Myra turned to face him again. Then, she put on a pitiful expression as she stared at him innocently in hopes of changing his mind.

Alas, she let out a silent cry of help as soon as she noticed the devilish smile on his face. In fact, Tony was waiting for her to turn around. With a peck on her cheek, Tony closed in on her once again, but Myra still didn’t seem interested at all—not tonight, at least.

Tony’s mouth twitched in slight disappointment as he shut his eyes. By the time he opened them again, Myra was staring wide-eyed at him.

The astonished look on her face tugged on his heartstrings, sending him a strong urge to make a move. Nonetheless, he understood and respected her wish. Myra wasn’t in the mood to proceed from here tonight, so Tony controlled himself and simply kissed her sleepy eyes.

“Go to sleep, then!” Tony whispered in her ear.

After that, he wrapped his arms around her tightly as Myra’s head rested snugly under his chin. He sniffed the top of her head and took in the fresh scent of her hair. Right now, the room that was shared by the two of them was their world, and they were the only ones in it.

“Wake me up earlier tomorrow, Tony,” Myra reminded Tony before she slept. Indeed, Myra had been getting up later in the mornings with each passing day, and she was worried that it would cause a delay in their schedule.

“I’ll let you wake up naturally.” Tony pinched her cheek and closed his eyes immediately after that—he was getting tired as well after fooling around until past midnight.

The next day, Myra woke up under the piercing rays of the sunlight—Tony had pulled open the curtains, so the light penetrated freely into their room. The sun was pleasantly warm and Myra stirred from her sleep leisurely. However, Tony wasn’t lying next to her when she woke up.

Her hand moved to the empty spot next to her by habit as she muttered to herself, “He’s gone again.” After some time, she finally opened her eyes and noticed that Tony was standing by the balcony, basking in the sun.

As the gentle rays of the sun enveloped him whole, he emitted a heavenly radiance similar to that of a celestial being. Myra could never get sick of watching Tony, for his face was stunning indeed. Her heart throbbed every time she saw him, and it made her feel like a teenage girl who was admiring her crush. In addition to that, Tony’s alluring eyes were staring unblinkingly at her right now.

Myra got down from the bed under Tony’s gaze as she dropped the comforter back down. Meanwhile, she was only wearing a pair of thin pajamas. The silky material of her clothes were slightly see-through, and Tony admired her figure which was vaguely visible under the thin fabric. Meanwhile, Myra took off her clothes in front of the man without a hint of reservation.

Tony couldn’t take his eyes off the smooth skin of her back as she changed into a fresh set of clothes before him. This was nothing unusual in the life of a married couple; although Myra used to be shy of changing in front of him in the past, she was at ease with it now.

By the time Myra finished changing, Tony was standing in front of her. She flashed him a comfortable smile in return.

“Where are we going today?” They had only come up with a rough schedule of their trip, so the specifics of their daily activities weren’t planned ahead—they wanted to go with the flow.

Tony felt that their trip would be more spontaneous and fresh this way—they could have something to look forward to every night before going to bed. Under Tony’s persistence, Myra didn’t say much and agreed to his idea.

They hadn’t encountered many rainy days throughout their time here, and it seemed like the sky was being rather cooperative with them. Today, the weather was clear and the breeze was cool—it was the perfect weather to be tourists. After a while, Myra and Tony were prepared to head out.
