Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

Chapter 227



Chapter 227

Last time around, because he believed some rumors from others, he mistakenly put Myra into jail. Not

only did he change her jail’s location, he also did not treat her well. In the end, that incident almost

made him lose his job.

It was also during that time that he saw the man who had almost become a myth in Bradfort City treat

Myra delicately. In the end, the all powerful Tony Hart had succumbed to love as well. However,

Captain Fowler did not expect that Myra, who was a divorcee, would be able to successfully capture

Tony’s heart. This time around, they came to the Stark Group because they knew what plans Thomas

had for Myra that caused him to be in such a situation. If it weren’t for that, Captain Fowler had no

plans to come here personally.

Just as he promised, the three of them checked through the documents quickly, as though they were

merely following the procedures.

Half an hour later, Myra sent the three of them to the elevator.

After they entered the elevator, Captain Fowler told Myra that she did not have to see them off. After

all, she was a busy woman. Upon hearing that, Myra did not insist and merely watched the elevator

doors close.

However, just as the elevator was about to close, Captain Fowler quickly pressed the button to open

the door. Looking at Myra’s surprised expression, he muttered in embarrassment, “Miss Stark, it’s our

fault that we wrongly put you in jail back then. I hope you don’t take it to heart. At that time, Director

Hart also asked us to treat you well but because everything was in chaos, someone else took the

opportunity to create a mess. Since it’s already in the past, I shouldn’t bring it up but I still wanted to

apologize to you. I’m sorry about that.”

Myra froze upon hearing that, as she was quite confused by his words but thereafter, she was stunned.

Wrongly put me into jail? I only entered the police station just that once when the Chase Family

accused me. Why is Captain Fowler apologizing to me?

“It’s alright. Everything’s over now and you didn’t do anything wrong.” After all, the people who hurt her

were from the Chase Family. Myra thought the reason for Captain Fowler being so polite with her was

because of Tony and Shawn.

Captain Fowler heaved a sigh of relief as he released the button, and the elevator doors closed again.

As she looked at the display that showed the elevator was going down, Myra still felt confused.

“At that time, Director Hart also asked us to treat you well…”

What does he mean by this? What does Tony have to do with that incident? What did Captain Fowler

mean by ‘Director Hart also asked us to treat you well’?

Myra’s heart fluttered as she clenched her fists and walked back to her office.

It was a surprise for Myra that Henry called her. On top of that, he called to ask her to go shopping for

clothes with him.

“Myra, can’t you make it? Do you have other plans tonight? I thought that you would be free tonight so I

called you. If you are busy, we can go shopping another time,” Henry murmured thoughtfully.

Myra did not have any other plans for the night and since she had taken a liking to this little boy, she

agreed immediately. “You have to go to school today, right? I’ll pick you up after school, then. Is that

alright with you?”

“Thank you, Myra!” Henry was obviously delighted about this.

After hanging up, Myra pondered for a while before she called another man.

“Yeah?” When the call connected, the single syllable rang out immediately, followed by a series of

knocks on the table.

Myra thought she heard someone giving a report to Tony just now, but it was complete silence from his

end at this moment. Hence, she asked hesitantly, “Am I interrupting your meeting again?”

Tony was lowering his head to look at a document but when he heard Myra’s voice, his frown lightened.

“No. What’s wrong?”

Since he already denied it, she did not say anything unnecessary and cut to the chase. “Henry asked

me to shop for some clothes with him tonight, so you don’t have to pick me up later.”

Using an excuse of having someone to cook for him, Tony moved into Myra’s apartment immediately.

Hence, her apartment had now lost all the hints of a single woman’s apartment. After work, they would

go home together to have dinner and it had become a rather blissful lifestyle for both of them. Apart

from when Tony had some business matters to settle, no one had ever interrupted their evenings until

now.

Sure enough, he immediately went silent after hearing her words.

Only his faint breathings echoed down the line and reached Myra’s ears.

Then, she heard the sound of a document being thrown on the table, followed by Tony’s cold and

dissatisfied tone. “If the graph still shows this trend in the next season, feel free to leave the Hart

Group.”

Tony’s words were followed by another man’s fearful and anxious voice. “Understood, Director Hart.

We will work extra hard next season!”

Myra was speechless upon hearing that. Even though she knew that Tony would not mess around with

work, the unfortunate employee was still affected by Tony’s mood. Myra softened her voice as she

murmured, “Henry is your nephew and I’m just going to buy some clothes with him. I’ll quickly return

after that.” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

“What time?” Tony asked indifferently. Myra could imagine the way his long eyebrows were knitted into

a frown and his thin lips pursed into a hard line.

“9 PM? I can’t possibly let him go home on his own. After we finish shopping, I’ll send him home before

going back.”

“After you buy clothes for him and send him home, are you going to put him to bed first before coming

back?”

The employees on Tony’s end kept a straight face, and they did not even dare to breathe heavily as

they heard their dominant and arrogant director say something rather awkward.

The serious meeting suddenly had a different air to it and the employees could not help but exchange

awkward glances.

No wonder Director Hart was quite angry just now. It turns out that he’s jealous of a particular

someone.

The department manager, who suffered Tony’s wrath just now, was secretly crying internally. It didn’t

take a rocket scientist to figure out who the person on the other end of the line was.

Apart from Tony’s official girlfriend, who was quite popular recently, they could not think of anyone else.

After hearing his sarcastic tone, Myra felt amused and in fact, she actually laughed out loud. This made

everyone in the office immediately feel an icy atmosphere pressing down onto them, causing them to

feel uneasy.

Miss Stark is driving all of us crazy!

“Why don’t we do it this way—after you’re done with work, you can come over to look for us. We will be

at XXX mall. Henry is your nephew after all, so you can send him back when we’re done.”

It was only until this moment that the crowd realized that Tony looked slightly better. He then said

coldly, “He’s just a kid; what clothes does he need? Are we so poor that he ran out of clothes to wear?”

Myra had realized long ago that Tony was quite sarcastic sometimes. Thinking that he was in a

meeting, she did not say much and hung up quickly.

Leo had been standing behind Tony all this while. At this moment, he quickly walked over to his boss

and asked nonchalantly, “Director Hart, Mrs. Hart got someone to bring over your lunch just now. It’s

quite late now, so shall we continue the meeting after lunch?”

Leo’s salutation of ‘Mrs. Hart’ had probably appeased Tony, so the latter immediately waved his hand.

Everyone else heaved a sigh of relief and they quickly exited the office.

Sure enough, Leo understands Director Hart better! With just one sentence, all of us are off the hook!

If we meet Miss Stark—no, Mrs. Hart—in the future, we have to be on our best behavior in front of her!

The Hart Family was quite good in educating their children. They did not send the kids to a private

school for the upper-class, but they hid the children’s identities and sent them to a normal school,

which was why Henry was currently in grade two in a public school.

When Myra arrived, the students were already done for the day and Henry was kicking some stones as

he paced in front of the entrance. When he saw Myra, he seemed to avoid her eyes and he looked

quite sad.
