Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

Chapter 475

Tony sped all the way to the well-decorated church that seemed matrimonious. It had been completely

arranged to Myra’s liking. He was willing to do anything for her, and he’d always provide her with the

best.

Guests started to flock to the church as Tony welcomed the guests at the entrance. Meanwhile, Myra

was waiting for the wedding to begin in a quieter area.

Heather was keeping Myra company. At this moment, Myra seemed anxious as she held onto

Heather’s hand tightly.

“Take a deep breath. I’ve never seen you so anxious before.” Heather tried to calm Myra down.

“Heather, there are a lot of things that I don’t know how to convey.” As Myra and Heather locked eyes,

Heather bent down to match Myra’s eye-level. They looked like a pair of sisters.

“You can take your time.” Heather’s smile was so influential.

Myra quieted down for a moment as she went into deep thought, but she still couldn’t find the right

words. She ended up looking at Heather nervously, making Heather wonder if she would be the same

when she got married one day.

Time seemed to be passing extra slow today, but Myra wished that the wedding would start as soon as

possible. At this moment, she was only accompanied by Heather despite the large number of guests.

The Hart family had always been low-key with everything, but it was an exception this time.

In fact, Tony wanted desperately to tell the whole world that he was marrying Myra. When he saw

Sean, his face fell slightly but he recovered quickly.

Sean’s appearance was a surprise as he came uninvited. Tony scoffed seeing how Sean seemed a

little down.

At this moment, Lucas whispered in Tony’s ear, “Will he make a scene?” Apparently, Lucas didn’t have

a good impression of Sean.

“Ask Elliot to keep an eye on him.” Tony entrusted Elliot with this mission.

When Sean walked past Tony, he told him in a sincere tone, “Congratulations on your wedding.”

Nonetheless, it sounded like sarcasm to Tony.

Therefore, Tony scrutinized Sean as he recalled how Sean wouldn’t let go of Myra some time ago, but

now he was giving the couple his blessings.

“Thank you, Director Chase. Myra and I will be happy together,” Tony replied as he observed the

change in Sean’s expression.

Having let go of a good woman like Myra, he could only suffer the consequences of his actions.

Clenching his fists, he tried his best to keep his emotions under control.

Seeing how she was happy now, it was only right that he gave her his blessings. However, his

emotions were wavering as he reminisced the moments they had shared.

With a pale face, he forced himself to walk along. Though he seemed a little pitiful, it was his own Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

wrongdoings which led him here.

Not far away was Matthias, who was among the crowd, entering the church hall to attend Myra’s

wedding. It felt like a dream to him, but it was also a farewell to his past. After this, his past feelings

would be buried along with his memories of Myra, who didn’t remember a thing.

That was how he was consoling himself, telling himself that the past was in the past. As much advice

people might have been given, they were not guaranteed a good life thereafter. Even though he had

made up his mind, it still ached deep inside his heart.

Taking a deep gaze at the groom—Tony—Matthias thought to himself, That should have been me. We

should be trading spots.

Meanwhile, a meaningful smile made its way to Tony’s lips. He was the one who invited Matthias as a

token of respect to his fellow business competitor.

Moreover, there had been quite some action from Matthias’ side, so Tony was curious as to what he

was up to. After all, Tony wasn’t afraid of challenges as he thought of them as chances for himself and

the company to improve.

It had been a while since Hart Group had competitors, so Tony was actually glad that Matthias was

here to keep him on his toes.

Matthias offered a courteous smile as he said, “Congratulations.” It took a lot of effort for him to say that

single word as the bride of this man standing before him was the person that he had yet to let go of.

As the wedding bells rang, the guests watched Myra walk down the aisle holding onto Old Master

Hart’s arm. A long stretch of red carpet was covering the aisle, and Tony was standing right at the end.

At this moment, Myra and Tony locked eyes as if there was nobody else in the world.

As for Old Master Hart, he smiled from ear to ear. Today, he had the image of a kind and friendly old

man, and Estelle thought that she had never seen this side of him.

“Look at your old man grinning from ear to ear,” Estelle told Shawn, who was beside her.

Turning to look at her, Shawn replied, “Old Master Hart will be even happier if you marry me.”

At once, she stuck out her tongue. Obviously, she wasn’t going to get coaxed into a marriage with him

just like that. Hence, she simply ignored him, acting like the conversation never took place.

Nonetheless, he didn’t let her off the hook so easily. If she still wouldn’t say yes to him, he was really

going to force her into marriage.

“Tony got married before me,” Shawn said in a peculiar manner, wishing he could marry Estelle as

soon as possible.

However, she let her gaze wander and acted like she didn’t hear what he was talking about, but he still

persisted.

“When do you want to get married into the Hart family?” he asked straightforwardly.

Tugging on Shawn’s sleeve, Estelle said excitedly, “Look! They’re standing together already!” She was

obviously trying to change the topic.

He glared at her helplessly. It seemed that he still had work to do. This young lady, he thought.

Meanwhile, Myra and Tony stood side by side as they faced the priest, listening to him speak. As the

priest gave the couple a look, he asked, “Mr. Hart, are you willing to take the bride as your wife?”

At that moment, Tony became the center of attention of everyone present, including Myra, who was

looking at him with a gentle yet passionate gaze.

“Yes, I do.” He answered loud and clear.

“Are you willing to have and to hold your bride for richer or poorer, in health and in sickness?”

“Yes, I do.” The gaze he gave Myra as he said those words was gentle and filled with love. As long as

they were together, he was willing to face any hardships that came their way.

The priest then asked the same questions to Myra, and she gave the same answers. It was a big

moment for the couple as their union was witnessed by everyone present.

With that, the priest gave them a kind smile as he announced, “In the name of the Father, the Son, and

the Holy Spirit, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.”

Upon hearing that, Tony left a kiss on Myra’s cheek before closing his lips on hers, kissing her deeply in

front of the audience.

The passionate kiss had taken away the breaths of many of the guests. Among the people present,

Matthias had his fists clenched tight. Perhaps he should not have come.

Pain was consuming him alive bit by bit. Gritting his teeth, he shifted his gaze to the bridesmaid next to

the pair, sending her a look that screamed for help.

As Heather and Matthias’ gazes met despite the distance, Heather instantly understood the look in his

eyes.

Forcing herself to retract her gaze, Heather and the groomsman passed the newlyweds their rings

before the couple put the rings on for each other.

Having completed the ceremony, Myra felt the weight being lifted off her shoulders as blissfulness

began to overwhelm her. She was currently lost in the kiss and those captivating eyes of Tony’s. She

wanted to look at him like this every day and stay by his side for the rest of her life.

There was infinite tenderness in his gaze that was on her, and he felt that it was the best day of his life.

He imagined that he would always be grateful whenever he reminisced about today.

The newlyweds had their fingers interlocked, and they matched each other so well that everyone was

dazzled. Matthias was of course, an exception. He left the church early as he couldn’t bear to watch

any longer. Similarly, Sean was another person who didn’t have a good time.

How would he have forgotten his wedding with Myra back then? It was done so half-assedly and he

hadn’t treated her right. That was why she was now smiling in another man’s arms.

Drowning in sorrow, he knew that he had no more chances with her. In fact, she was already avoiding

him as the mere sight of him would upset her.

By the time the wedding ended, tables were already set up surrounding the church. The banquet was

right outside the church, and Tony had prepared scrumptious foods for their guests. Obviously, it was

only appropriate to feed the guests well as they couldn’t be going home with an empty stomach.

As wedding banquets typically went, the newlyweds went from table to table greeting and drinking with

everyone. As the couple’s bridesmaid and groomsman, Heather and Lucas followed suit.

Myra was pregnant, so she could only replace alcohol with juice. Meanwhile, Heather took alcohol well,

never backing down when a few occasional people would purposely challenge them.

Halfway through, Myra tugged on Heather’s sleeve discreetly and said to her sotto voce, “You can’t

drink anymore.” Myra was surprised to see how Heather was trying to drown her sorrows with alcohol.

At once, Heather offered her a smile. “Don’t worry about me. You know that my alcohol tolerance is

high. It’s your big day today so I want to drink a little more.” Truth was, she had been uneasy ever since

she locked eyes with Matthias. Hence, she wanted to get some alcohol into her system so she could

calm down.

Even Lucas was dumbfounded to see Heather downing alcohol glass by glass. Why was she drinking

so much so quickly? Would she be okay?

Heather had a weak and frail body. Now that her cheeks were a deep shade of red, it was such a

gorgeous sight. From time to time, Lucas would peek at her. He was both worried and attracted to her

at the same time, and he could not help but take a few extra glances at her.

By the time they covered all the tables, Heather had drunk quite a lot. Mainly due to the speed that she

had drunk at, the aftereffects were starting to hit. Her flushed cheeks were extra adorable, and many

guests did not recognize that the bridesmaid standing beside Myra was Heather because she always

had the queen-like image of a lady boss.

Therefore, Myra asked Lucas to bring Heather to rest, but Heather rejected. She was not used to

others touching her. Moreover, she didn’t need his help. Despite them being the bridesmaid and the

groomsman, they didn’t interact much throughout the wedding.

“I’m fine. It’s just a joyful day,” Heather said with a smile. At this point, her actions were starting to gain

a few men’s attention.

“Let Lucas keep you company for a bit. I’ll join you in no time.” Myra thought that it was about time for

Heather to take a rest as she had been running around all day.

Knowing that Myra and Tony no longer needed the bridesmaid and groomsman’s company, Heather

didn’t decline this time.

Thus, Heather and Lucas sat opposite each other. While he didn’t know where to look, she simply

gazed at him brazenly. Perhaps she shouldn’t have rejected Myra’s suggestion; it might not be a bad

thing to interact with other men as it might even distract her from thinking about Matthias.
