Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 102

Anthony shivered as he walked over. "Boss."

"What's going on? Tell me." Stanley turned to look at him.

Anthony immediately told him the whole story. "At that time, I was not here, and two bodyguards were guarding at the door. Madam suddenly said that she wanted to eat ice cream, but the hospital didn't sell it, so one of the bodyguards went out to buy it. When they came back, they pushed the door open and went in. She... disappeared."

Stanley's piercing gazes swept over. "She disappeared out of thin air?"

Anthony didn't dare to look at him. "I-1 don't know..."

Stanley looked around the ward expressionlessly. Suddenly, he thought of something and went straight to the window. He pushed the window open and looked out. This was the seventh floor. It was very unlikely if Sharon wanted to escape through the window.

The window and the door of the ward were the only exits. There was someone guarding outside. Except for a window, there was no other way to go.

If she didn't choose to slip out of the window, where would she be?

There was a possibility in his mind. Stanley's eyes moved to the bed. Was it a ruse?

At the same time, Shawn, who had been standing by the side and had not spoken, suddenly said, "Someone is guarding outside the door, but the patient is missing. I want to know how you handled it after you opened the door and found out that she has disappeared?"

He leisurely leaned against the wall and looked at the two bodyguards.

The bodyguards were stunned when they heard this. One of them thought for a moment and answered, "We looked at the bathroom but found no one. Then we began to check every ward, and even every corner of the corridor..."

However, they couldn't find her at all, not even a person with a similar figure. They wondered how Miss Cruz had done to disappear without a trace.

Shawn smiled and raised his hand to point at the bed. "Had you checked the bottom of the bed?"

Not only the two bodyguards, but even

Anthony was stunned.

That's right!

Why didn't they check the bottom of the bed?

Anthony turned to look at Stanley, who was donning a clam expression.

Shawn looked at him with an amusing look in his eyes. "Your wife is quite smart. She knows how to set up a ruse."

Moreover, it was not easy to successfully deceive two bodyguards.

There was no expression on Stanley's face, but in his heart, he gritted his teeth and thought, "That is not smart! It's sneaky!"

Anthony was quick to react. "I'll go to the Director and get the surveillance video."

After that, he immediately strode out.

Stanley walked up to Shawn. He had not slept well for two days, and now something like this happened, so he was really tired. He reached out and rubbed his eyebrows. "I'm sorry, I've let you see me making a fool of myself."

Leaning against the wall, Shawn put his hands in his pockets and smiled casually. "I think it's interesting. Your wife's behavior reminds me of a person in the past." "Oh?"

Stanley raised his eyebrows. "Your treasure?"

Shawn looked down to the floor, curled his lips into a smile, and nodded. "Yes. She was timid since she was a child and was afraid of thunder. Whenever it rained, she would squeeze herself under the bed and refused to come out. I'd chided her several times but she didn't change her habit. It was a headache."

Stanley chuckled. Thinking of Sharon's drunkenness last time, she also went under the bed and refused to come out. He wondered what was playing in her mind.

"You said you were childhood sweethearts, didn't you?"

Shawn's thoughts drifted away. He started to miss her so greatly that his heart began to ache. His Adam's apple bobbed and he answered casually, "Sort of."

After a pause, he asked again, "Do you have cigarettes?"

Seeing that he didn't look well, Stanley didn't say anything and silently handed the cigarette box to him.

"We can't smoke here. I'll go to the smoking area."

Shawn walked out. "Let me know after you're done with your business."

Stanley nodded.

Anthony came back as soon as Shawn left. He entered the ward with the copy of the footage in his hand. "Boss, this is the surveillance videos that just came out."

Stanley took it.

Stanley looked down at the video on the phone. After watching the video, he was so angry that he laughed. "Have you watched the video?"

Anthony nodded and said, "I've seen a little."

"Do you know what to do?"

"Yes, I'll go and find out where Miss Graham lives."

Stanley gave the phone back to Anthony, and Anthony put it into his pocket and turned around to go out.

In the video, Sharon did play a ruse. She hid under the bed and sneaked out of the bed when the bodyguards went away in a panic to look for her. Then she slipped out of the hospital.

Someone came to pick her up at the hospital entrance. It was Melody.

The two of them did not stay at the entrance for long. They stopped a taxi and left quickly.

Stanley didn't expect that Sharon's petty trick managed to fool so many people.

He shouldn't have underestimated her.

Anthony went to check the location of Melody's residence. Stanley thought for a moment and walked toward Shawn.

Before he approached him, he heard him answering the phone, "She agreed to meet up? Good. You arrange the time and venue. I'll see her later."

Stanley stood where he was and didn't say a word, waiting for Shawn to finish his phone call.
