Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 154

The door of the ward was pushed open again. Shawn thought it was the nurse conning in so he shouted without looking up, "Get out!"

"If you want me to get out, then I'll go."

Shawn suddenly looked up and saw Sharon who had returned. He was stunned. "Sharon, why are you back?"

"I never leave."

"You..."

Sharon went to the table, took the food out from the thermos, and came to him. She set up a simple dining table for him and said, "I didn't say that I'm leaving. I just went to the doctor to ask if you can eat these."

Shawn held her hand tightly. "I apologize for what happened just now."

He was too strong that Sharon frowned, and he immediately let go of her hand.

"It's okay." Sharon handed him the cutlery and said, "Go ahead and eat."

Shawn glanced at her and began to eat with his head down without saying anything.

He didn't eat much though. He put the spoon down after gulping two mouthfuls of soup, to which Sharon arched her eyebrows and asked, "Is it not suitable for your taste?"

"No, the food is delicious. Don't misunderstand." Shawn immediately explained, "Can you send me food again tomorrow?"

Sharon nodded. "I promised to send you meals, and I will keep doing so until you are discharged."

Shawn smiled. "Aren't you going to work?"

Sharon frowned. "How do you know about my work?"

Shawn coughed.

"Have you investigated me?" Sharon understood as soon as she saw his reaction. "How much do you know about me?"

Shawn raised his eyes and looked at her deeply. "Everything."

Sharon was stunned. "So you know about Stanley and I..."

"Yes," Shawn looked at her and said.

Sharon stared at him in a daze. She had planned to keep the marriage between her and Stanley a secret to anyone.

Now that he knew it, it was the right time to talk it out.

"Yes, I got married to him." Sharon took a deep breath. "A year ago, I married him."

Shawn didn't expect that she would take the initiative to talk about this to him. He frowned and looked at her with his mouth tightly pursed.

Sharon stood not far from his bed and said word by word, "Shawn, my husband is Stanley. Since I have married him, I won't have any contact with you. Do you understand?"

"But you don't love him!" Shawn held back his anger and said firmly.

Sharon glanced at him. "How do you know that I don't love him?"

"From several aspects! I can tell that you don't love him. Sharon, no one knows you better than I do. I can see through you at a glance if you love someone or not."

Shawn's gazes were burning. "Sharon, I am the one you love."

His tone was full of certainty that Sharon laughed because of his arrogance. "What makes you think so?"

"Peter said that after I was shot, you stayed outside the operating room for a whole night and cried so hard that you couldn't catch your breath. Besides, you didn't even want to leave no matter what." Shawn looked straight at her.

Sharon chuckled and said, "You took a bullet for me. As a normal person, shouldn't I be worried?"

"Since you are worried, does it mean that you still have me in your heart?"

He looked straight into her eyes and approached her slowly. "I'm willing to block that shot. Even if I die, I won't regret it."

Sharon's body trembled. "Shawn, why are you doing this? It's impossible between us. Just move on..."

"No!" Shawn interrupted her abruptly. "Why should I move on from the beautiful past we shared together?"

"Sharon, for so many years, I have missed you every single day. I have never forgotten you. This time when I came back and found you again, I have only one request, let's start over!"

The more Shawn said, the more worked up he became. There were expectations and yearning in his eyes.

Sharon pursed her lips and looked at him. "I'm married. I'm Stanley's wife. I won't have a future with you. This is a reality and you have to realize it."

In the end, she made up her mind and said sternly, "I will never divorce him. I love him. Shawn, I don't love you anymore!"

Shawn's whole body trembled, and his face was pale.

"Back then, we were young. I was a teenager, and you were the only man around me, so it's normal for me to like you." Sharon fixed her eyes on him. "But that's just puppy love. It's just infatuation, not true love."

Sharon looked at Shawn, whose blue veins popped up on his forehead, and said, "You and I are in the past. Let go and move on, okay?"

Shawn stared at her. After a short while, he suddenly burst into laughter. "Let go and move on? How? How do you want me to let go? You saved me when I was in my worst state and gave me the best years in my life. Those memories have been engraved in my bones. I don't have any feelings for other women but you! How do you want me to let go and move on? Tell me, Sharon, how can I let go?"

Sharon looked at him in a daze.

She didn't expect that what happened back then would have such a deep impact on him.

There was only Sharon in Shawn's eyes. "You avoided me because of what happened between Cecilia and me, didn't you?"

Sharon shook her head. "No..."
