Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 222

Inside the Bentley, the car was driving at a slow pace. The person in the driver's seat placed one hand on the steering wheel, and his fingers tapped on it absent-mindedly.

Sitting in the passenger side, Sharon pursed her lips and turned her head to look out of the window.

Three minutes ago, Shawn asked her to get in the car. Though, Sharon did not want to get in, but Shawn only said one sentence, "If you don't want to get in, I'll get off the car and carry you in personally. I'm happier doing so.

Knowing that Shawn was the type of guy who would do as he said. Sharon had no choice but to get in his car.

"I saw that you were on your phone from a distance." In the quiet car, Shawn slowly spoke. "Who were you calling, huh?"

Hearing that, Sharon's face was as calm as water. "What does it have to do with you?"

Suddenly, a screeching sound could be heard, the car came to a sudden halt. Due to habit, Sharon's entire body leaned forward before she was pulled back by the seat belt.

Frowning in pain, she took a deep breath. Fueled with anger, she was ready to scold him. As she turned around, her gaze met a pair of dark eyes.

Motionlessly looking at her, Shawn's eyes were dark and his face looked scary.

Sharon reached out her hand to push the car door.

With a click, the door lock was on and the car door was locked.

Turning her head to look at the man. "Shawn, don't make me hate you!"

Shawn was stunned.

"If I can still get in your car, this proves that I still believe in you. But, don't take advantage of this. Don't make me hate you till I'm forced to completely remove you from the bottom of my heart.

Sharon warned him word by word.

Curving his mouth into a bitter smile, Shawn said, "Sharon, you're getting smarter each time. You know how to hold me down. How can I... Let you go?"

Looking at his familiar eyes and brows, Sharon said, "Brother, what happened between us was already over. You should choose to start a new life, or just start over."

"Brother..." Shawn mumbled. He raised his eyes and looked at Sharon's gentle and small face. Without the sharp warning gaze that she had given him earlier, his mind moved and his long eyelashes drooped. "Is it because we're siblings now that you don't hate me so much?"

In reply, Sharon nodded, "It's really in the past between us. Who I love now is another man."

The palm of his hand tightly closed, and blue veins stood out on the back of his hand. Shawn hid the rage in his eyes and smiled. "Is the one you love, Stanley?"

Pressing the corners of her mouth together, Sharon said, "I'm his wife, I'm only going to love him for the rest of my life."

"Okay then, I'll ask you one last question," Shawn said, staring into her eyes. "Back then... Did you even like me?"

Sharon was startled by his question.

Back then, had she ever liked him?

How could there be no such thing?

That year, he was the one who accompanied her. Every time her parents had conflicts and quarreled with each other, he was the one by her side. Even when she was on her period, he would hold her in his arms and coaxed her over and over again...

If it weren't for Shawn, Sharon's youth would definitely be in so much pain that she would want to die.

Looking up, Sharon stared at him. "When I was in my sophomore year, my desk-mate fell in love with a straight-A student next class. We once whispered to each other, and she told me, 'Sharon, I want to marry a straight-A student in the future, I will marry him...'"

Speaking of this, the corners of Sharon's mouth twitched as she chuckled. "What you probably did not know was that back then, I said the same thing to my desk-mate. I said, in the future, I'll marry Shawn..."

The air in his chest seemed to have been sucked away. It felt like all of his organs were twisted together, which caused agonizing pain.

In the past, she had once thought of marrying him...

If he did not leave, and she had graduated from college, they would have gotten married and had children. Additionally, he would have worked hard, and bought a house and a car for her. Giving her a normal but happy life.

They did not need to be rich, as long as they could be together...

However, all of these, were bubbles. Under the scorching sun, they were all broken.

Did he really... Lose her forever...

Thinking of that, Shawn could not help but tremble. He turned his face away and tried his best to breathe. The ends of his eyes were red and burning. Clenching his fists, he then raised them, and smashed heavily on the steering wheel.

One punch at a time! Bang! Bang! Bang!
