Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 67

“What? How is that possible?” Elliot was shocked.

He knew very well how charming Tony was. Why would the woman be so stupid to sleep in another man’s bed when she has the opportunity to get close to Tony?

“You think that it’s impossible?” Tony asked nonchalantly.

Elliot could feel the stress piling up and he gulped. “I didn’t say so. It’s just that—”

“Even if it’s impossible, make it possible!” Tony’s sudden harsh tone made Elliot shudder.

“Tony, what do you mean?” Elliot, of course, didn’t understand Tony’s meaning but right after the former asked the question, the call was hung up by the person on the other end of the line.

Elliot felt helpless. Could it be that the woman named Myra has made Tony lose his mind? Nevertheless, this incident had allowed Elliot to see Tony’s determination to get Myra.

After Tony hung up, all sorts of emotions flashed across his eyes. Soon, he narrowed his eyes slightly and stomped on the pedal all of a sudden, making the car speed off like an arrow in another direction.

Lyla had once longed for love but she knew very well that it was sometimes too weak when compared to money. In fact, it was so weak that one could not stand firmly in the society with only love.

The man she loved was Sean and even until now when she thought that she had almost forgotten about him, she realized that her heart would still pound for him when she met him once again.

Even so, that did not matter! Sean was now a married man and his mother… There were certain things that she had no intention of giving a second try; one try was enough!

Her expression was a little gloomy at first, but her mood soon lifted.

Just now, the waitress sent her a message. If everything went well, Lyla would become Tony’s woman tonight.

She applied some perfume and gazed at her perfect look in the mirror again before slowly leaving the place.

Room 1024 was the room that she had booked. If the man had arrived, he could directly enter the room.

In order to show her manners, Lyla knocked on the door when she arrived in front of the room.

“Come in.” The voice, which she found a little familiar now, came from inside. It was low and husky, carrying the unique charm of a mature man.

Lyla’s heart raced involuntarily as she slowly opened the door to the room. As soon as she raised her head, Tony’s heavenly handsome features entered her sight.

Even if it were not because of his money, his face alone was enough to make her put in plenty of effort to get him.

Lyla soon returned to her senses and quickly shot an elegant and polite smile at the man. “Director Hart.”

Her demeanor graceful and noble, she entered the room without forgetting to close the door behind her.

“Miss Fisher, I believe that you understand what I meant earlier,” Tony nonchalantly interrupted before he rose to his full height.

He had a deadpan expression but for some inexplicable reason, Lyla noticed a hint of anger in his eyes, which made her heart sink. She suddenly blurted out, “Director Hart, if you feel uncomfortable about my past with Sean—”

“I will help you so that you can marry Sean.” Click. Click. Click. The sound that was made when the lighter was repetitively opened and closed could be heard. At that instant, Tony’s expression became so vague that Lyla couldn’t see it clearly.

Her heart skipped a beat.

“Miss Fisher, you are, in fact, an intelligent person. You now have an opportunity to get hold of that man. Don’t be too greedy. You should quickly give up on things that you can’t get. If you have my help…”

The expression on Lyla’s face revealed her inner conflict. She was very clear about what the man before her meant—he said he would help her to get Sean.

At that time, the reason she dumped Sean was because Eve disliked her but adored Myra. Lyla was threatened, so she had no choice but to take the money and leave. However, at that point of time, her feelings for Sean were indeed genuine!

Lyla’s fists were tightly clenched by her side as she ventured, “Director Hart, I am sure that you won’t help me without wanting anything in return. I need to know your price.”

Tony scoffed as he thought to himself, Pursuing the little kitten is already tough enough, so if I can get someone to help me…

“You will know my price when the time comes.” With that, Tony picked up his suit and left the room.
