Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 587

Heather watched in relief as Everly gave a slight nod. Given her current lack of experience, it was considered not bad for her to have such an understanding of the matter.

Seeing how happy Everly was when she left reminded Heather of her past self. At that time, she also had such simple and pure longing.

Back then, she probably didn’t think that she could become such a person. After being confused for so long, it seemed like she could see the future in a glance.

When she saw others being constantly on the move with their lives, Heather felt an inexplicable sense of envy, as she felt that it was a wonderful thing to have goals and ideals.

When she first returned to Bradfort City, she had a clear goal in mind, but now, she was getting more and more confused. Am I really going to continue down this path?

Suddenly, her phone rang at this untimely moment. Heather thought it was Myra calling, so she quickly retrieved her phone, but the caller turned out to be Matthias.

She didn’t expect that he would be so stubborn. Seeing that Heather didn’t answer his calls, he sent her a message.

‘I’m in front of the Langston Residence’s entrance. Are you sure you don’t want to come out and see me?’ Matthias came because he couldn’t be at ease. Heather’s ‘I miss you’ made him soft and filled his heart with affection, so he couldn’t wait to see her.

Irritated, Heather pulled open the curtains, wanting to see if she could see Matthias. However, she forgot that this was the second floor, so she couldn’t see the entrance.

It seemed that she had to go down. Matthias always had a way to enter the Langston Residence, so she figured she might as well let him in on her own.

When Heather went to meet Matthias, she was wearing her simplest and most comfortable clothes, and she was barefaced. Today, she wasn’t in any particular mood, so she didn’t put on any exquisite makeup.

Waiting quietly outside the door, Matthias leaned against the car. Then, he saw his sweetheart approaching, with only a door between them.

“Why didn’t you just come in?” Heather asked through the door.

“I was waiting for you. Just one glance at you is enough.” Matthias didn’t plan to enter the Langston Residence. Every time he went in, he would bring Heather trouble, so it was better for him not to go in.

“You’re nuts,” Heather muttered disdainfully, when in fact, she felt quite happy. Matthias finally knew how to be considerate of her, as him not going in would indeed make things less difficult for her.

The Langston Family had already come to the tacit agreement that Heather was dating Matthias. Although Heather might have such plans in the future, she wasn’t currently dating him, so she didn’t want others to gossip.

“So, you’re really inviting me in?” Matthias decided to tease Heather.

“Don’t. I’ll come out,” Heather answered with a smile. She couldn’t possibly be so heartless. Besides, this was real life, not a drama, so why should they talk with the door between them?

To Matthias, this was an unexpected joy. After opening the door, Heather walked toward him. They were only a few steps away, but he seemed to be using up a lifetime’s worth of his tender gaze to enclose every inch of Heather’s body.

“You look like you were going to gobble me up,” Heather joked. Today, Matthias was looking at her with a strange look, so she wondered what he was thinking about.

“Yeah, I want to eat you. I can’t wait to swallow you whole.” Matthias longed to spend his entire life with her. This feeling was getting increasingly stronger, so how was he supposed to restrain himself?

“Hmph!” Heather grunted and didn’t respond to him. It seems like Matthias is being insatiable again. This guy is really…

“Heather, since you’re already out here, why don’t we go for a spin?” Matthias realized that he had turned into a hooligan after he saw Heather. At first, he just wanted to take one glance, but now, he was greedy and wanted her attention to last a little longer.

“I’m not dressed for that. I’m afraid tomorrow’s headline would be, ‘The President of the Locke Group Meets His New Lover in Secret’.” A faint smile appeared on Heather’s face, and she was seemingly amused with herself.

Matthias smiled as well. “That’s quite a good headline.” He never knew that Heather had such a humorous side.

“Women don’t go out without makeup,” Heather continued, her expression serious.

“You look good without makeup. No matter what, you’re always the most attractive one.” Matthias turned on his complimenting mode as he just wanted to praise Heather. At the same time, he was proud of his taste for choosing such an attractive woman.

“Forget it! Myra said that I look like I’m eighteen without makeup.” Heather patted her face playfully. Although it was a joke, she did look relatively young without makeup and wasn’t exactly imposing.

Many times, Heather would inadvertently mention Myra. It seemed like Myra currently occupied a unique position in her heart.

Matthias believed that he had a long way to go, and he didn’t know when he would be able to surpass Myra’s position in Heather’s heart.

“Where do you want to go? I’ll take you there. If you’re worried about being followed by reporters, then we’ll just go for a spin. We don’t need to get out of the car.” Matthias was reluctant to leave Heather. He kept his eyes glued to her, refusing to avert his gaze for even a moment.

“That’s boring. I don’t like going for drives. Not to mention, it’s windy today. I’d get blown silly.” Heather’s hair was dancing in the wind. Holding onto the ends of her hair, she laughed like a teenage girl.

“You just keep on refusing me. Do you not want to spend time with me?” In order to avoid suspicion, Matthias maintained a distance with Heather. After all, they were at the entrance of the Langston Residence, so they couldn’t be too intimate. Otherwise, Heather would definitely be unhappy.

“You have to give me a reason that will arouse my interest. Otherwise, don’t try to trick me into going out.” Heather raised an eyebrow and gave Matthias a wide grin. Looking at him greatly improved her mood.
