Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 526

After being in a stalemate for a while, Myra glanced at Tony guiltily as she thought of her promise to him the other day. After searching through her memories, she could see why Tony would come up with such a question.

She averted her gaze and dared not meet his eyes as she figured out ways to get away with it. Geez, how could I say that with him being next to me? I was being too courageous.

“Don’t you smile like that. Answer my question,” Tony spoke firmly, not taking the bait. To him, this was not an issue that could be passed off with just a smile.

“Something’s happened again in Bradfort City, so it isn’t a bad idea to return earlier,” Myra announced determinedly. Well, since everything had been said, she might as well just lay everything on the line.

Eyes narrowed into slits, Tony replied with a rather unsatisfied tone, “This is not what you promised a few days ago.” Although Myra was originally indecisive, this response of his had strengthened her decision on going back to Bradfort City.

“Tony, stop being so stubborn. We can travel anytime we’d like to. It’s such a critical period now and I’m not quite in the mood even while we’re on vacation.” Just as she said, she was not in the mood to go on the trip these few days. After all, her mentality was not as strong as Tony’s.

“Alright, then; whatever you say,” he said with a change in his tone, effectively stumping her.

She looked at him, whereas he raised his eyebrows at her before asking, “Not satisfied with this answer?”

Myra immediately shook her head but she still felt that Tony was enraged. As this thought popped up in her mind, she had a concerned expression on her face.

“Tony, are you really not mad?” she asked carefully. Her thoughts went against Tony’s wish, therefore it was certain that she would feel anxious deep down.

“I won’t ever get mad at you.” he answered with a cordial smile, as if his anger just now was an illusion.

“Tony, I know I’m not in the right for this, but I’m really worried about the situation in Bradfort City. I’ll feel anxious if we continue to stay here,” Myra reiterated once more. Worried that she would upset him, she tried to calm him down with her words.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. We’ll head back after three days.” Similarly, he had also noticed her anxiousness as he spoke. As soon as he realized it, he knew it was time for him to take a step back.

No matter how dogmatic and relentless Tony was, when it came to Myra, he would still be concerned and take her thoughts into consideration. After weighing both of their reasoning, Tony felt that it was not a big deal to return a few days later after all; he had his own plans too.

Furthermore, there was also some news coming in from the Hart family these days. By connecting to those issues which Heather brought up earlier, Tony suspected that all these strange cases were related to the Moriartys.

In fact, he felt that the Moriartys had a very high chance of being involved. After all, to be able to get such an organisation running errands for them, it would take a strong political background to get things moving.

On top of that, with their financial resources that could compete with a country’s wealth, Tony was even sure of his thought that the Moriartys were linked to the cases. If that family were really manipulating things behind their backs, everything would surely get troublesome.

“Three days later? Where will we be going in these three days then?” Myra asked joyfully as Tony gave in without being stubborn. In all honesty, most of the time it was actually him who would first compromise.

As soon as she thought about this, Myra felt as though she was fully surrounded with happiness. Tony was such a proud man but he had always listened to her thoughts willingly, because the love he had for her was truly overwhelming.

“I want to take you someplace,” he murmured mysteriously.

His words successfully piqued her interest, so she asked, “Where to?”

“We’ll fly there tomorrow. You’ll know when you get there.” Tony didn’t want to tell her about the place just yet. With him being secretive, he felt that it would be a lot more surprising for Myra.

However, she insisted on knowing about their destination. “Where are we heading?”

“Massachusetts,” he announced loudly.

Stunned by his reply, Myra spaced out for a little while before she recovered from the surprise and asked, “We’re heading to the United States?” She had never expected that their last destination of the trip would be the States, and so she was a little astonished to hear that.

“Yes, I’d like to bring you to a place. You’ll love it there.” Tony sounded full of confidence as he spoke.

Where could that place be? Question popped up in Myra’s mind as she thought, Will it be somewhere filled with his memories? As soon as she thought that, her mood lightened up because of his change in his attitude and she smiled even more brightly. Upon seeing that, Tony adoringly fixed his gaze on her, his own mood seemingly good as well.

Suddenly, Myra took the initiative and asked, “Should we head out?” After all, he had already taken a step back so she should show her gratitude.

For the past few days, Myra did not want to go out. However, she was in a good mood today, all thanks to Tony agreeing to return earlier.

“Where would you like to go?” Tony closed the distance and he embraced her from behind.
