Chapter 325
Standing Before Love
âIâve also heard about it. I wonder what kind of hatred drove Miss Walton to do such a thing. However, from what Iâve seen, she was probably troubled by love. Itâs possible that they were a couple once, but now that Mr. Hart has fallen in love with another woman, she felt so wronged that she rammed him with a car.â
âI wonder what method Myra used to charm Mr. Hart to a point where he wonât even consider any other women. By the looks of it, Gemma is quite a pitiful girl. Because of this, she is now forced to leave Bradfort City. I even heard the reason why she will be sent away is because she required medical treatment abroad. She probably got hurt really bad this time.â
âHowever, we canât say that she isnât an idiot. I canât believe she didnât even think about the consequences when ramming the car at Mr. Hart. Luckily, she was only asked to leave Bradfort City this time. If the same thing happens again, the Walton Family will probably be doomed.â
âYouâre right, but who wouldnât want a man like Mr. Hart all to herself? I heard that the Young Lady of the Barker Group spends almost all her time at the golf club because she knows that Mr. Hart likes to play golf, so she waits for him there every day.â
âOf course she knows. Thereâs also Belle from the Bridgers Family. Ever since her blind date with Mr.
Hart, she just canât give up on him. Thatâs why she always tries to find opportunities to approach him, but what use is that?! Besides, I donât think there will be a woman who can successfully surpass Myra. I think itâs better if I just love myself so that I donât need to think too much.â
â¦
Every word of their conversation had reached the ears of the other two people in the room⦠And the other two outside the room.
Seeing the playfulness in Estelleâs eyes, Myra didnât know whether to laugh or cry. Looks like she just wants to listen to some gossip, so why did she act like there was something interesting for me to see?
When Estelle noticed that Myra was unmoved by what she had just heard, she opened her mouth and quietly repeated the conversation that they heard earlier.
âI heard that the Young Lady of the Barker Group spends almost all her time at the golf club because she knows that Mr. Hart likes to play golf, so she waits for him there every day. Thereâs also Belle from the Bridgers Family. Ever since her blind date with Mr. Hart, she just canât give up on him. Thatâs why she always tries to find opportunities to approach him.â
However, Myra remained indifferent as she followed Estelle and whispered, âSo what?â
âCanât you see that there are a bunch of women lingering around your man? Myra, let me tell you thisâ
a man can suppress his urges for a year or two, but how many of them can resist the seduction of beautiful women on the outside for the rest of their lives?â
Myra looked resolute. âTony isnât that kind of a person.â
Estelle blinked a few times, but in the end, she threw in the towel. âWhat am I doing? I was the one who matched the two of you at the start, so why am I telling you this now? Besides, I know that you trust Tony, but I donât trust Shawn. However, I get what you all mean. I know that Shawn isnât a bad man, so I decided to be together with him for the moment. Weâll deal with it if the thing I fear the most actually happens in the future.â
Although Estelle looked nonchalant, Myra was able to see the real problem. Overall, after many excuses, the true reason was that Estelle couldnât trust any men. Therefore, she couldnât help but think about Estelleâs parents. Even my own father did the same thingâ¦
After taking a deep breath, she wanted to say something, but then, she secretly sighed. If I continue on this matter, itâll only make her more resistant, so itâs better for me not to say anything at all. Besides, I believe that Shawn will never let that happen to her.
When they exited the parlor, Estelle grabbed Myraâs sleeves and said, âI have to tell you this. Even though Gemma is stupid, she is still ruthless. After hearing what you told me earlier about her condition, I donât think sheâll want to leave Bradfort City.â How can a woman like her listen to anyone?!
Iâm afraid that itâll only drive her insane, causing her to do something crazy. âOverall, you need to be extra careful now, especially with the child inside you. Donât give her any chance to hurt you.â
Myra nodded. âI was thinking the same thing too.â
After the two of them entered the car, the engine started and it accelerated as it took a turn. Suddenly, a woman rushed to the front of the car. At that moment, it was Estelle driving the vehicle since Myra was pregnant.
Estelle immediately slammed on the brake while her face turned pale. Meanwhile, the woman outside was already crying loudly, âMurder! Someone just rammed me with a car. Help!â
It was a busy street outside the beauty parlor, so the surrounding pedestrians started to gather in a short time.
However, the expressions of the two people sitting in the car suddenly changed. She is a faker!
When the two of them alighted from the car and saw the woman crying outside, Myra was immediately enraged in her heart. Itâs Elsie!
Therefore, she felt that it wasnât an accident as Elsie had obviously planned the encounter.
Upon seeing Myraâs gloomy face, Estelle asked, âDo you know her?â
âYes.â Myra nodded. âWe used to be colleagues in the Chase Group. She had an affair with Sean before, but then, she miscarried the baby inside her. I donât know how she recently got into contact with Tony, but she keeps asking him to break up with me. Now, I donât know what the hell she is doing.â
âI see.â Estelleâs worried face was immediately filled with disdain and her expression changed as she walked toward Elsie. âLetâs see what tricks she has up her sleeves!â
Even though she was wearing a hat and sunglasses, she was still a public figure and many people could still recognize her, so Myra pulled Estelle aside. âDonât worry, Iâll handle her myself.â
Seeing the determination in Myraâs eyes, Estelle went back into the car.
Outside, as soon as Myra walked toward Elsie, she raised her voice and shouted at the onlookers while pointing at Myra. âLook. This is the woman who purposely rammed the car into me just now! Myra, you are also one of the elite families in Bradfort City, right? But, do you really need to use different means to drive me away just because you donât like me?! Now that you canât drive me away, you even thought of a despicable way to ram me with a car!â
âMiss Foster, what did you do to me that made me want to drive you away and ram you with a car?â
Myra remained indifferent.
âDo you really think I didnât know that you did those shameful things?! Itâs you! Itâs all because of you!
Before you divorced Sean, you seduced Mr. Hart. Did you really think no one would find out about this after you kicked me out of the Chase Group?! Today, I will expose you in front of everyone!â
âGreat. Miss Foster, can you try to be more specific so that I can record all your words? Itâll be more convenient for me to sue you when I make a police report. Miss Foster, if you donât want to be in prison, you can try to say as much nonsense as you like!â Myra didnât pay attention to the whispers of the onlookers as Elsie had expected. Instead, she prepared to record Elsieâs words with her phone.
âNonsense? M-Me?! Iâm not talking nonsense. All Iâve said is the truth. S-Stop recording!â Elsie started to panic.
Today, she finally had a chance to escape from those people and find out which hospital Tony was at.
In the end, she waited for Myra to show up so that she could threaten Myra to tell Tony not to send her away from Bradfort City! Not only did Elsie just lose her child, she wanted to exact revenge on Lyla and snatch Sean from her, so she wasnât willing to leave yet!
âMyra, I wonât hold you accountable for what just happened, but you canât force me out of Bradfort City!â Elsie pretended to be calm as she stared at Myra firmly.
âIt doesnât matter whether you want to hold me accountable or not. My friend in the car has already called the police. Theyâll give a reasonable conclusion by then.â
