Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean)

Chapter 508

Now that they were in Venezuela, Myra and Tony hugged each other intimately after they finished

touring Canaima National Park. Since they were staying at the presidential suite this time around, they

could roll around the huge bed in any way that they liked.

When they woke up, he gently kissed her forehead as he revealed a slight smile on his face. Even

though he had been quite disturbed by the stalker, he felt as though all his troubles had melted away

when he hugged her in his arms.

Myra had been a light sleeper as of late. Even though it was a gentle kiss, it had woken her up. With an

apologetic look on his face, Tony asked, “Did I wake you up?” Of course he wanted her to have a

longer sleep.

“I’m easily woken up these days.” On top of being pregnant, the bad encounter had also made her

unable to be sound asleep.

However, it was not necessarily safe for them to return to Bradfort City either. The mastermind who

hired the stalker to follow them could be waiting at Bradfort City for them to return, but Tony had

already spoken to his family about it.

He was worried that the attack this time was directed at the Hart Family, so he asked them to take

some precautions beforehand, even though it was blatant that the Hart Family was much safer in

Bradfort City, compared to Tony and Myra being in a foreign country. After all, they were not familiar

with Venezuela and they did not have any friends around. It was quite a dangerous situation for them

both. Hence, they had to be vigilant all the time. He was also unsure whether he should make a

decision to return to Bradfort City since the stalker had merely followed them around without doing

anything.

However, Tony was also worried that the stalker might attack them on their way back to Bradfort City,

which made him feel conflicted. Meanwhile, Myra was also worried about it. Upon seeing how their

well-planned honeymoon had come to this, he was annoyed.

“It’s the Lantern Festival today, which is a time for families to reunite.” He was quite comfortable with

pinching her chubby cheeks.

“Unfortunately we are in Venezuela, which is far away from our hometown.” Myra smiled. She did not RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

want to show her concerns because she knew that he was already worried about their current situation.

She did not want him to be worried about her as well.

“There are no mooncakes here. Why don’t we make it ourselves?” Even though mooncakes were

unavailable, they could make it themselves as the raw ingredients were not difficult to locate anyway.

“Good thinking.” Myra smiled again. For the past few days, Tony had been trying to cheer her up to

divert her attention from the stalker.

Since they had already arrived at that decision, they quickly got out of the bed to get started on their

plan. Thinking that Heather would update her anytime soon, Myra took her phone with her. Sure

enough, there were a few messages from Heather.

Myra downloaded the document that Heather had just sent. When Myra opened it, Tony had also

scooted over and paled after quickly skimming through it. She then shot him a glance before looking

back at the document.

“I didn’t expect the mastermind, who arranged the stalker, to come from such a powerful background,”

he mocked, making her wonder whether it was good or bad news.

Upon hearing that, she looked at him in worry, making him realize that what he had just blurted out

frightened her.

“Don’t worry, the stalker does not pose any physical threat to us. He is only responsible for collecting

information and I’m sure he won’t be attacking us.” It was actually a piece of good news that finally

calmed Tony’s anxious thoughts.

He did not expect Heather to have the capabilities to investigate such a group. A few years back, he

had merely heard some rumors about them.

“Why did they follow us to gather information about us? What kind of information do we possess to

warrant such a great deal of effort?” Myra was confused to hear that. There were a few technical terms

mentioned in the document that were quite difficult to understand, so she directly asked him.

“I have no idea, but this is the bad part. Some big guys have their eyes on us now.” Tony did not

understand the secret goal of the powerful mastermind behind the stalker. He did not want to hide

anything from Myra. After all, judging from her intelligence, she could get this piece of information from

the document itself. It was better to let her know from the beginning so that she did not have to look it

up herself.

“What about us?” She wanted to know Tony’s next step, but it seemed like he hadn’t thought about

what they should do next.

“Just follow our initial plan. Once we are done with our travels, we’re heading back to Bradfort City.” He

did not want to change his plans. Apart from that, the group was so formidable that they might have

already known about his plans.

“I don’t even have the mood to travel anymore,” Myra complained with unease.

“We have to follow our initial plan. I assume the group already knows about our plan. If we suddenly

change our plans, it would be bad if they realize that we have found out about them. At least we are still

safe now, so let’s continue to pretend that we know nothing about this.” Tony voiced his opinion. He

would rather go with the flow and pretend that they did not discover the stalker instead of changing

their plans in a panic.

After hearing Tony’s justification, Myra nodded. Even though she was quite anxious and fearful, she

was less so with him around.

“Today, our plan is to make mooncakes.” Tony recollected his composure and spoke in a happier tone.

“What fillings should we put in?” Myra asked solemnly. After all, it was a serious question.

“Fruits?” he asked tentatively. There were many different types of fillings for mooncakes nowadays, but

he did not like the almond flavor and was willing to accept a fruity filling instead.

After thinking about it, she replied, “I guess that’s what we can make here.” After all, since they were

not in Bradfort City now, they could not get their hands on many of the ingredients.

“Fruits it is. What type of fruit are you craving for?” There were many types of fruits around, but Tony

had no idea which one to choose from, so he thought Myra could inspire him.

“An assortment of them.” Myra did not have any particular cravings as well, so she thought it would be

best to have an assortment of fruits.

“Let’s take a look at the market on the streets and buy some fruits to make them into fillings.” Since

they were going to make mooncakes by hand, they had to do everything including the fillings from

scratch.

They happily walked out of the hotel to the busy street after they made their decision. As they held

hands, they smiled at each other before they started to buy the required ingredients. Since it had been

a while since Myra last made something, she was looking forward to it. In fact, even Tony was excited

about it because he had never done something like this before. Now that he thought about it, the idea

of making mooncakes was rather interesting.

It was rather easy to find flour and fruits, but they still needed sugar and olive oil. Soon, they gathered

all the ingredients and merely needed to look for another convenience store for some molds.

It was probably the most unique Lantern Festival they had experienced. After being busy for the entire

morning, the mooncakes that they made had tasted quite good, but it came with weird shapes as Myra

and Tony did not manage to find the specific molds. After all, it was difficult to search for the exact

molds that were used in the local convenience stores.

She could not help but grin from ear to ear when she saw the weirdly-shaped mooncakes. She took a

picture of them and posted it to her Stories. After leaving Bradfort City, she and Tony felt like they were

an ordinary pair of husband and wife who experienced many things that they had never tried when they

were in Bradfort City.

When she saw some flour on Tony’s nose, Myra thought he looked funny, so she quickly took a picture

of him. Before he could even realize what was happening, she had already taken a comical picture of

him.

Tony first saw a picture on her Stories. Upon seeing how he actually looked cute in the picture, he

narrowed his eyes when he looked at her. On the other hand, Myra smiled happily. After experiencing

such simple and normal happiness, Tony felt that it was worth it to bring Myra here. There were many

things that were inconvenient for him to carry out in Bradfort City and his days were mostly filled with

work. However, at this moment, he was free and easy like a bird.

“Take a bite of this.” He took the mooncake to feed her himself.

Myra wanted to avoid him. “You gave it to me because you don’t like it. I don’t want that.” Tony did not

like desserts, but she convinced him to have a little of them.

“There are still quite a lot of leftovers. Do you want to bring it back?” It was his first time baking

something himself, so he thought it would be a waste to throw the leftovers away.

“No. I can’t eat too much sugar. Why don’t we share it with others?” She suggested with a smile. When

we share good stuff with people, we can spread joy around.

“Sure.” Tony agreed with Myra’s idea.

With that being said, they gave the remainder to the employees of the convenience store, who thanked

them with a smile when they saw the mooncakes. After all, the employees were quite curious about the

taste since they never had any mooncakes.

When Tony and Myra returned to the hotel, they were satisfied with their actions and decided to leave

the stalker aside. When one was happy, one would often forget about their troubles. While they were in

bed, Myra could not fall asleep, so she dragged Tony outside to look at the moon. They brought some

stools to the balcony and enjoyed watching the moon there. The round moon had always been the

same—no matter where it was.

“I still remember back when I was still in school, my geography teacher said that the moon was the

roundest on the 16th of each month.” Myra recalled her student days with Heather. She had no idea

why she had recently been reminiscing about her younger times.

Occasionally, she felt that her memories were incomplete, as she always dreamed of a person whose

face was blurred out. When she woke up, she would feel disappointed, as if part of her memories had

been deleted.

At that moment, the feeling became more intense. Myra wanted to talk to Tony about it, but she

resisted when she was about to do so. After all, he had not taken part in her past memories. She also

thought that he could do nothing about it even if she told him what she felt right now.

Moreover, she had a feeling that the memories that she had forgotten were related to a young boy who

had not gone through puberty. Since it was related to a young boy, Myra felt even more embarrassed to

discuss it with Tony. If that person really existed, he could be her first love. She did not even dare to

continue her train of thought. How could one forget their first love? I seem to hear that voice

somewhere.

Perhaps at this moment, if Matthias was right in front of Myra and behaved in the same way as he

always did, she might remember the missing part of her memories were related to him. However, since

Tony was the only person around her at this moment, it was impossible for her to be in touch with

Matthias. As such, it could not be possible for her to recall him at this point in time.

If Matthias knew about this one day, he might feel slightly regretful. Back then, if he persevered and

appeared in Myra’s life on a daily basis, she could have remembered her past with him. However, after

arriving in Bradfort City, he seldom appeared in front of her because of her relationship with Tony.

“In that case, let’s view the moon again tomorrow,” Tony suggested as he looked at Myra adoringly.

“No. It’s not the Lantern Festival tomorrow.” When she raised her head, her messy thoughts were

chased away. I’m with Tony now, so I should focus on this moment instead of other matters.
