Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 17

Sharon yawned and said lazily, "This trick again. Miss Russell, you've acted in so many TV series. Don't you think this script is very familiar?"

Jewel was stunned. "What?"

"This is the standard plot in any idol drama where the male lead's mother wants to stop the female lead from being with the male lead. Miss Russell, are you Stanley's mother?" Sharon smiled innocently.

Jewel's face turned livid. "You have a sharp tongue. And yet you dare to claim that you don't know Stanley!"

Sharon pursed her lips. "Miss Russell, you have been in the complicated entertainment industry for so many years. How can you still be so naive? Did you really believe me when I said I don't know Stanley?"

"How dare you!"

This time, Jewel was really pissed off. This reckless girl who had not graduated from university dared to make fun of her!

Sharon was reluctant to continue the conversation. "Are you done? Can I leave now?"

She was waiting for the job application call and didn't want to waste her time on meeting Stanley's lover.

With that, she got up and was about to leave when Jewel said lightly, "Johnny!"

The burly bodyguard turned around and blocked Sharon's way. She frowned. "Miss Russell, what do you mean by this?"

"I haven't finished yet, so you can't leave."

"Haven't you finished? You asked me to leave Stanley, didn't you?" Sharon spread out her hands indifferently. "Don't worry, I will leave him, and I'll never cling on him."

She was telling the truth. She didn't want to be too attached to Stanley nor did she intend to spend the rest of her life with him.

Jewel was stunned and frowned. "You will leave him?"

Sharon nodded sincerely. "Yes, I will. I know you guys are in love. Don't worry, I won't be in between you. I wish you two happiness and a happy life together."

Jewel was stunned. What was going on now? Did she mishear it? Was Sharon giving her wishes to her and Stanley? Why Sharon didn't want to hook up with Stanley, marry him, and become Mrs. Jones?

Why was she being so generous now?

It was a really good tactic. She was so scheming that she didn't seem like a naive college girl.

For someone of Stanley's stature, if a girl wanted to be with him, the most important thing was to be considerate, sensible, and to know the do's and don'ts.
