Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 215

Ivy’s expression soured slightly and she bit on her lower lip with force. Then, she turned to leave Leo’s office without replying to him.

Leo, who was left behind, stared in helplessness and full of heartache.

In Tony’s office, Myra was about to clean the desk after Ivy left. She was just about to reach out for the bag when a long and prominent arm wrapped itself around her waist. Tony pulled her against him. “Are you jealous?”

Tony cocked a brow at her.

“No, I’m not,” Myra retorted straight away. She struggled against his embrace, but she gave up since she realized that she couldn’t release herself from his grip. However, she refused to meet his gaze.

Tony chuckled in a rumbling tone while sounding seductive and alluring. Myra felt her earlobes burning; she deliberately shoved against him to hide her shyness. Then, she faced him with a stern expression. “You have many people falling for you. I would drown in my own jealousy if I were to feel jealous of everybody!” Myra was being honest when she said that.

Well, Tony is like the Devil himself. I can’t even count the number of people yearning for him! Forget about the ones I am unaware of because I know that Sasha, Gemma and even Kris are in love with him! I can’t possibly lock him up at home and not let him head out, can I? However, if I were to forbid him from leaving the house…

Myra imagined locking Tony at home and her lips twitched involuntarily whereas her eyes twinkled with a smile. Tony, who was just in front of her, locked lips with her the moment she smiled.

He held onto her waist tightly. He hugged her so closely to him that it felt almost like he was trying to merge his body with hers. The intensity of his kiss reflected his domineering and forceful nature as usual.

Myra blushed until her neck was red. She met Tony’s eyes, which seemed almost magical, while biting on her lips. Tony pressed his lips against her again when he saw that. After a long time, he chuckled quietly. “I do not have the heart to see you drown.”

Tony wasn’t the type of man to utter sweet nothings, but a simple phrase from him seemed much more effective than empty promises.

Myra grabbed the chest area of his shirt and she mumbled to him, “Tony, you are constantly attracting young and pretty women. It seems like Miss Ivy is rather capable and she seems to be quite…”

Suddenly, she was reminded of Sean and his relationship with his female assistants in the secretary room. It caused her to immediately frown. I know that Tony doesn’t have female assistants, but at that time, Sean even cheated on me with Elsie from the Design Department anyway. If…

“You better erase that imagination of yours.” Tony squinted at her and he met her gaze directly. He could not help but gripped her waist with more strength.

Myra hissed in pain, but she felt angry with herself for speculating nonsense. If he truly wanted that, he wouldn’t have been single for many years while staying pure all this time.

She noticed Tony’s pursed lips and she could easily guess that he was slightly angry with her. Myra immediately moved forward to kiss his thin lips, as if to sooth him. “I am not overthinking. I trust you, but that woman just now…”

“She is a distant relative from Old Madam Hart’s side. Old Madam Hart dotes on her,” he explained lightly.

No wonder she kept using Lisa’s name as an excuse earlier.

Myra was stumped for a moment, but Tony cocked a brow at her. “Old Madam Hart gave you a bangle, didn’t she?” It was apparent that he had to leave the Hart Residence early that day, but he knew what had happened.

Myra smiled automatically when she recalled Old Madam Hart handing her the bangle while advising her to live happily with Tony. She felt much better and moved forward to kiss the corner of his lips. “This means that you have no way back, Tony Hart, because it’s too late for you to return the goods now even if you want to.”
