Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 312

After they cuddled in the car for a while, Tony finally released Myra from his embrace.

When she was about to get out of the car, he suddenly pulled her hand back.

Hence, she turned and looked at him questioningly. He merely smiled and pulled her over before he planted a kiss on her forehead. “I’ll pick you up later in the afternoon. Take care.”

Myra returned the kiss on his chin. “When you arrive, call me. Don’t just stay silent.”

She remembered that he had quietly waited for her at the company. Even though she did not say it out loud, she felt rather sorry for him.

Tony smiled slightly and caressed his chin on her face. It was only after agreeing to her request that he let her go.

Myra was in a pretty good mood after they had talked things out. No matter what, it was definitely better than brooding on the problem herself.

When she was walking up the stairs, a female employee hastily ran into her. Myra’s expression changed when she lost her balance on the stairs. Fortunately, Genevieve, the co-director of the Design Department, pulled Myra so that she did not fall over.

After realizing that she had landed into trouble, the expression of the employee who bumped into Myra changed immediately. She then apologized profusely to Myra in a timid manner. “I’m so sorry,Miss Stark. I didn’t notice you just now.”

Myra did not take it seriously, thinking that it was because of the peak hour and the employee was anxious about arriving late. Hence, she merely waved nonchalantly. “Don’t worry about it. Just get going.”

The female employee immediately left after heaving a sigh of relief.

Genevieve added casually, “Miss Stark, you are still in your trimester, so you have to be more careful.”

Myra nodded. “Got it. Thanks, Genevieve.”

She initially thought it was just a minor accident, yet it had already happened a few times today.

When Tilly was sending documents somewhere else, Myra went to the pantry to pour a cup of water for herself. However, someone still managed to accidentally bump into her. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and threw the cup aside as she held onto the door next to her to prevent her fall.

Myra was the last to enter the elevator as she had finished another meeting. Yet, when she walked out, she felt someone shoving her from within, making her stagger forward before she could regain her balance.

There were many people in the elevator, so she did not know who the culprit was. However, she was sure that it was no longer an accident. An accident would happen once, but something was definitely wrong when it happened a few times in one day.

Hence, Myra did not leave her office for an entire afternoon.

At around 3:00PM, Gemma had called to invite her for a session of afternoon tea, but she rejected the invitation with the excuse of being busy.

Gemma guessed that she could not convince Myra to meet her, so she did not insist on it.

However, not long after that, someone who would seldom appear on this floor and who did not want to come showed up—it was none other than Kris.

Kris was here to personally hand a document to Myra. The Central Square project that Myra was in charge of had been approved. The Walton Group had also collaborated on the project, so Kris had a vindictive expression on her face as she placed the document in front of Myra. “Myra, Dad asked me to hand this document for you to have a look. If all is good, we can start to collaborate with the Walton Group.”

When it was almost time to knock off from work, a rather major incident appeared on that floor.

One of the secretaries, who was four months pregnant, suddenly bled profusely. The baby within her had an emergency condition.

Before everyone could get off work, an ambulance arrived and sent that woman to the hospital. It seemed like she had suffered a miscarriage.

When Myra heard the news from Tilly, her face turned slightly pale. Unconsciously, cold sweat broke out on Myra’s back as she recalled the various accidents that she met today. On top of that, she felt that something was off with the employee’s miscarriage, which made her hair stand on its edge when she heard the news.

“What’s wrong, Miss Stark?” After noticing Myra’s worried look, Tilly quickly stopped speaking as she blamed herself for being tactless. Miss Stark is now pregnant. Why am I telling her these matters to scare her?

“Tilly, what is the secretary’s health condition? Did she accidentally fall or eat something that was harmful to her pregnancy?” Myra asked.

After noticing that Myra did not look well, Tilly shook her head. “No, Sunny has already been quite healthy and I heard that the baby is doing well during the checkups. In the afternoon, she went for lunch with the other secretaries, so it was illogical that she had eaten something wrong. Everyone took extra care of her because she’s pregnant.”

Worried that she could be overthinking things, Myra kept quiet about the things she felt were illogical so as not to worry others. Instead, she merely told Tilly, “Give my salary and bonus this month to Sunny.” As a mother, she must be saddened that she has a misacrriage.

As Myra was also pregnant at that moment, she could understand how Sunny felt. After all, Sunny was one of the secretaries serving her, so Myra felt sorry for her. “Tell her to rest well before returning to work. There’s no need for her to rush.”

Tilly nodded with a smile. “You are such a nice person, Miss Stark.”
