Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 85

“That won’t be necessary, considering that there’s nothing else to say between us.” Myra wiped her face with her sleeve. The sight of Lyla and Sean being all lovey-dovey was a sore sight for eyes.

Somewhere near them, a waiter opened the door to the cafeteria, while the manager greeted the four people who came through flatteringly, “Allow me to offer my sincerest of greetings, Mr. Hart, Mr. Windrow, Mr. Renaud, and Mr. Samson. What brings you?”

The four men before him represented the four most prestigious families in Bradfort City. Having worked his way up to his position as manager, the man knew who they were, which was why he wanted to make sure he didn’t cross them by offering his best services.

The four men were none other than Tony Hart and his friends. As soon as they entered the cafeteria, their handsome looks and extraordinary temperament garnered the attention of all the customers. Given their graceful movements, it wasn’t hard to surmise that they were of noble birth. However, aside from one man who seemed to be more easygoing, the rest of them wore a look of indifference, so nobody dared approach them. Instead, they were all left admiring them from afar.

Elliot was in a good mood, seeing that Tony offered to buy them some coffee. He waved his hand at the waiter who approached them. “You can safely ignore us and resume your respective tasks. We’re merely dropping by to have a cup of coffee.”

“No problem at all. Allow us to show you to the best room.” The manager was all smiles.

“That won’t be necessary,” the man in the lead said casually. He was in a suit and leather shoes, his appearance marking him as one of the elites in society. With a morose look on his face, he told the manager after glancing at a certain spot in the cafeteria, “We’ll sit in a corner at the public space.”

The rest of his friends were startled by his decision. “Tony, we never sat in open spaces like this…” Elliot reminded him. None of them understood why he would choose to sit there when he decided to buy them coffee. With all the women around them, sitting in the public meant that they would be the center of attention. But as soon as Tony glanced at him, Elliot shuddered before scrambling to pull out a chair and sat down on it. However, he let out a cry of surprise when he just sat down.

“What’s the matter?” Philip asked. Elliot quickly averted his gaze while trying to stop the rest of them from looking, but it was too late. All three of them glanced in the direction that Elliot was looking at, only to see Myra, who had been close to Tony as of late, standing by the bamboos. However, she seemed to be in some sort of trouble, for her face was as pale as paper, her slim figure and expression betraying how uncomfortable and painful she was feeling. Meanwhile, standing across from her were two other people.

All four of them knew who Myra was, so they recognized the man in front of her, who was currently holding onto another woman, as her husband, the president of Chase Group.

Judging from the situation…
