Chapter 197


    Sean had time to chase Myra, but why didn’t he spend time with me? Ever since the divorce was


    finalized, he has be quieter as time passed. Recently, he has been leaving home at the crack of


    dawn anding homete at night. I haven’t seen him for days as he leaves before I wake up and


    arrives home after I’ve slept. How can I stay calm knowing that it’s all because of Myra? What does he


    mean by all this? Does he still harbor feelings toward Myra and he’s been pursuing her after their


    divorce?


    Soon after L said those words, Myra did not even get the chance to defend herself. Almost


    immediately, the staff members walking past and the receptionists at the front desk started to


    congregate together and they whispered among themselves.


    Myra’s face visibly darkened as she stared at L in front of her. She coldly eximed, “Let go of my


    hands!”


    “Myra, I beg you. Please stay away from Sean. Please do not go after him…” L sobbed. She held


    tightly onto Myra’s hands and refused to budge. It was as if once she released Myra’s hands, then


    Myra would refuse her request.


    Myra felt a sharp stab in her heart. Understandably, anyone facing such a situation would not be


    The worst thing was that it was done by L.


    “When did I provoke Sean?” Myra flung L’s hands away without considering whether she was


    actually pregnant or not. Her mouth twisted into a sneer as she said. “Both of us have been divorced


    for some time now. I have never gone after him and I can’t even bear to breathe the same air as him.


    Why would I ever get in between the two of you?”


    L and Sean are the two people in this world that I would avoid with my life if I ever have to cross


    paths with them. Why would I go after Sean out of no blue?


    All of a sudden, Myra recollected her previous encounter with L whereby she was used of


    harming her unborn child when it was all a plot devised by thetter. Myra immediately took two steps


    backward uponing to the realization that this could also be another scheme.


    “Myra! Miss Stark! I’m aware that you despise me. You’ve always harbored hate against me upon


    realizing that Sean remained infatuated with me after marrying you. However, our love for each other


    isn’t wrong. Moreover, our unborn child is innocent too. You’ve got a great family background and the


    looks. You’ll definitely be able to meet a better man than Sean. On the contrary, if I go through a


    divorce with Sean, our unborn child would grow up without a father. I couldn’t care less about myself,


    but what about our child?”


    L sobbed inconsbly after saying that. Her reddened eyes were swollen as tears continued to


    stream down her face.


    At that point, Myra’s hands, which previously dangled by her sides, were clenched tightly into fists. She


    wasn’t sure whether L’s outburst was intentional, but thetter had created a scene at the front


    entrance of Stark Group and it obviously had a ripple effect—quite a few staff members looked at her


    scornfully as they walked past. Looking coldly at L, she asked, “Do you mean to say that I’m still


    entangled with Sean?”


    “Miss Stark…” Suddenly, L kneeled down in front of Myra while she was still speaking. L was no


    longer the refined and elegant pianist she once was. At that moment, she was only an ordinary woman


    defending her rightful spot as a wife. “Please, I’m begging you to leave us alone…”


    L’s words were repetitive—stop bothering Sean; leave them alone; their unborn child was innocent.


    Myra thought, It is as if I’m a wicked woman. Come to think of it, I would not have been reduced to the


    all ties with L and everyone from the Chase Family once I obtain what’s rightfully mine. From then


    on, I don’t want any further interactions with them and I just want to lead a peaceful, new life away from


    them. I don’t wish to loathe them, but why is she still hounding me?


    “You’re a joke, Miss Fisher. On what grounds do you think I would still be infatuated with Sean?” Myra’s


    eyes were devoid of emotions as she stared into L’s eyes. She remained calm and emotionless as

    she said. “Or should I say, on what grounds do you think you’re of such importance that I would go after


    someone I loathe in order to spite you? Miss Fisher, you seem to have overestimated yourself and


    Sean’s position.”


    As soon as Myra finished her sentence, L felt that she had been delivered a stinging, harsh p on


    the face, resulting in a burning sensation. However, she quickly regained herposure after a short


    pause and lowered her head. She skillfully masked the contempt and disdain from her eyes as she


    started whimpering, “Myra, everyone in Bradfort City knows how infatuated you are with my husband.


    Nheless, I never expected you toe in between us despite knowing the fact that Sean and I are


    married. You’re a despicable homewrecker…”


    “Homewrecker?” Myra was angered as she heard L’s words. She sneered with a smile and asked.


    “Let’s see, before Sean and I divorced, what position did you hold in our marriage?”


    As soon as she heard Myra’s words, L’s face immediately turned as pale as a white sheet. She bit


    on her lower lips and muttered, “So, it’s true… You do intend to take revenge against me…”


    “You’re mistaken. I never had any intention to take revenge against you. On the contrary, I would like to


    express my gratitude toward you.” Myra looked at L calmly and continued saying. “Your presence


    has shown me Sean’s true colors. As such, I went through with the divorce. For the rest of my life, I’ll


    be free of him. I can finally start afresh and lead a fulfilling life.” Moreover, I’m gradually getting closer to


    Tony.


    Due to the debacle, Myra had lost her appetite, so she turned to head back inside. However, L


    suddenly sprang up from the ground and grabbed hold of Myra’s right wrist. This came as a surprise to


    Myra as she did not expect L, who looked weak and feeble, to have the strength to do so.


    Myra’s expression soured immediately. Without hesitating, she pushed L’s hands away as she


    struggled to break free.


    At that point, the two of them were standing a distance away from the staircase. As such, Myra did not


    expect that L was weakened to the point where just a fling of her hands would cause L’s feet,


    which were in ballet ts, to stumble a few steps backward. Just as she was about to fall down the


    staircase, a pair of hands suddenly and firmly grabbed hold of L on her waist. Soon after that, L


    was taken into his arms.


    Almost immediately, L turned her head and she saw Sean. His charming yet darkened face came


    into sight. In fact, he was still trying to catch his breath. Obviously, it was due to him noticing her about


    to fall down the stairs and he ran toward her at lightning speed to break her fall. With her reddened


    eyes, she clung onto his waist as she sobbed, “Sean… I just thought since our baby will be due soon


    and knowing your guilt toward Myra, I intended to apologize to her on your behalf. As a matter of fact, I


    only wanted our child to grow up peacefully in the future. I didn’t expect…”


    L had left her sentence hanging. However, everyone at the scene who saw their altercation would


    Myra was currently lost in her thoughts. She recalled the previous encounter with L at the café. At


    that time, L had seen Sean entering and she purposely provoked Myra into giving her a p on the


    face. Beside that, she had intentionally thrown a ss of lemon water on her own face. This was to


    further enhance the fact that Myra was being a bully. As for today, Myra realized L was repeating the


    same trick.


    Without giving a second thought, Myra turned and walked inside. However, Sean stopped her with a


    cold voice as he yelled out, “Hold on!”


    She chose to ignore him and continued walking.


    Her actions fueled his anger without him realizing it. As soon as he regained hisposure, he had


    already chased after her across the first floor lobby with L in his arms. He then blocked her in her


    tracks.


    “Apologize to L!” he demanded as he looked straight into Myra’s eyes. His expression was a myriad


    ofplicated feelings that he couldn’t quiteprehend. He wasn’t sure whether his demand was


    intentionally to anger her or whether he was actually seeking an apology on L’s behalf.


    Myra’s brows furrowed upon hearing his words. She pulled her mouth into a slight sneer as she made a


    detour around him and continued on her way.


    “Does the Hart Family know Myra Stark’s true personality?” Sean asked with a cold smile on his face.


    “Maybe I need to rephrase this—does Tony Hart know you’re such a vicious woman?”
