Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 583

On the road, Myra kept thinking about the name ‘Matt’. It sounded very familiar, but she couldn’t remember where she had heard it before.

“Matt? Matthias Locke?” she mumbled to herself, as though she had thought of someone, but she felt like she was spewing nonsense.

At the time, she did not think that going to the cemetery was a wrong decision. She preferred to hear some things from the relevant person themselves and not someone else’s retelling of it, especially since she couldn’t be certain whether that person was telling the truth or not.

The suburbs were a bit colder than the city center, especially at the cemetery, where the spooky dampness in the air was a lot heavier. Getting out of the car, Myra made sure to put on a thick coat. Tony was right in telling her to put on more layers earlier.

She first went to her mother’s grave, where that person would be meeting her. Even though Tony exhorted to her that the driver must follow her, she still did not let the driver follow her to the grave. Instead, she asked him to wait for her in the car and even asked him to keep an eye on his phone in case she needed help later.

Because the person she was meeting later was mysterious, she needed to take safety measures beforehand. The driver was tall and strong; he also had some fighting skills.

If something went wrong, she could call for the driver right away. To clear Myra’s suspicions, that person had informed her that a woman would be meeting her here.

It was for this reason that Myra wanted to come and take a look. After all, women were slightly weaker. Later on, the person even sent Myra the photo of the woman so Myra could immediately identify who she was supposed to meet.

Looking at the thin woman in the photo, Myra hesitated over and over again, but still decided to come over. When she told Tony that she wanted to go to the cemetery at the time, she was still debating over whether to go or not. She most definitely wanted to visit her mother’s grave, so she made the decision to go for that reason.

Indeed, she was reluctant to meet an unfamiliar woman, but that person went on to tell her a bunch of things while keeping her on the phone. In the end, Myra decided to go meet the woman with all the suspicions she had. She only heard half of the story over the phone; the latter parts were what she wanted to know more.

When Myra saw the thin woman in the cemetery, she started to feel a slight regret. At first glance, she couldn’t grow fond of the woman; she kept feeling an inexplicably chilling presence from the latter.

When the woman began to tell her the details, it made her astonished. By the end of it, Myra was covering her ears and telling the woman to stop talking.

“That’s enough. I don’t want to hear it anymore. I’m going back now.” Myra shot the woman a glare. She regretted coming to this meeting today.

Regardless of whether the woman was speaking the truth or not, she shouldn’t hear it from her. If it were true, Myra wanted to hear it from Heather herself.

If it weren’t true, then Myra would regret having doubted her. After chasing the woman away, Myra stood in front of her mother’s grave alone. For a while, she wasn’t able to put her mind at ease.

At this moment, her phone indicated that she was getting a call from Heather. In the middle of being overwhelmed with emotions, she answered the call, and that was how one thing led to another.

“Mother, should I believe her?” Myra was looking at her mother’s picture on the gravestone. Her mother had passed away at the prime of her life; she still looked beautiful in the picture.

Having stood there for a long time, Myra felt out of it until the driver arrived behind her. Tony had been concerned about Myra being at the cemetery and decided to call the driver straight away. He learned from the driver that Myra hadn’t come out of the cemetery yet after having been in there for a long time. Upon hearing that, he asked the driver to go in and look for her.

“Mrs. Hart, the cemetery is cold. You shouldn’t be here for too long.” The driver reminded her not to stay in the cemetery any longer. Even he, a big man, felt chilly there. Not to mention, Myra was pregnant.

“Okay.” Finally, she was willing to leave the cemetery.

Meanwhile, Tony was also taken aback by a situation that had unfolded in Hart Group. It was unexpected that Caleb had dropped by on his own two feet, but it was even more shocking when Caleb invited Tony out to talk over some business.

Tony didn’t know whether Caleb had hidden motives or whether it was a coincidence. The place Caleb wanted to meet at happened to be right next to Tony’s house.

If Caleb had invited him over the phone, Tony probably wouldn’t have shown up. But since Caleb went straight to Hart Group, Tony didn’t have a choice but to show up at this meeting.

Even though Tony knew a few past grudges among the three great families, on the surface, they were all people in business, and interactions when doing business was nothing out of the ordinary.

Presently, even the Langston Family hadn’t gotten into a feud with the Moriarty Family yet, so how could Tony start a fight with them first? Whether explicit or not, they still had to keep up appearances.

When Caleb came to pick Tony up in his own car, Tony did not turn his hospitality down either.

Inside the car, Tony spotted a woman. Huh. There’s actually a woman with Caleb. Going into the backseat, he could only see the side profile and the back of the head of the woman in the passenger seat, but not her entire face.

Throughout the whole drive, Tony kept guessing the woman’s real identity. Her side profile seemed to remind him of someone, but he couldn’t remember who.
