Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 243

Looking at her reaction, Anthony paused. "Are you alright?"

Although Sharon's face was a bit pale, she waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's just that I ate too much just now. Plus, you're describing these disgusting scenes and it made me a bit nauseated."

"Then I'll stop then."

Nodding her head, Sharon changed the topic. "How long have you guys been dealing with Harvey abroad?"

"Dealing with Harvey was actually quick and easy, we would have been able to return on the third day. Unfortunately... we ran into some trouble."

Lowering her voice, Sharon pursed her lips and asked, "Is it because Stanley was shot, that the return was delayed?"

"Yes." Anthony nodded. "Mr. Jones stayed in the ICU for a week after being shot. The first thing he did when he woke up was to return to the country to find you..."

Noticing that her face was getting paler, Anthony quickly shifted the topic and said something interesting, "On the day we were discharged from the hospital, those foreign doctors were so scared that they literally jumped up and down saying that if Mr. Jones wanted to forcefully check out from the hospital, he would definitely die..."

Hearing that, Sharon staggered a little, and Anthony was shocked. Then, she steadied herself and a smile appeared on her face. "I... I'm fine. I'm just thinking about what happened to you guys abroad. I... But it's great that everything's fine. Now that the two of you are safe, I am less worried."

She knew that the reason Anthony mentioned those situations was only to give her peace of mind.

Thinking of the scenes where Stanley had been shot and was in a coma for a week was enough of a thrill for Sharon. If she had been by his side, she would have definitely fainted...

At this moment, she seemed to understand why Stanley said that he would rather make her hate him, let her think that he had just disappeared, and not let her worry about his life or death.

If something did happen to him...

To be honest, Sharon would definitely break down on the spot.

However, if she thought it was merely a disappearance, then she would at most be worried...

Thinking to this point, her eyes dropped, and the scale in heart tilted...

When they returned to the ward, they heard Stanley's voice before they entered. "I'm fine, I won't die. You guys go back, I want to rest now."

Looking at each other, Sharon and Anthony mouthed, "Who's there?"

With that, Sharon walked over and opened the door to take a look. She blanked out for a moment. Rebecca... And Jackson.

As the people in the ward saw them enter, they were also stunned. Rebecca's gaze fell on Sharon and the corners of her mouth twitched bitterly. Now, she knew why Stanley was in such a hurry to chase them out.

He was afraid that she would meet Sharon, wasn't he?

The reason Stanley was so nervous was that he was afraid that she would tell Sharon about Nathan...

Thinking of this, Rebecca raised her eyes and looked at her with a smile. "Miss Cruz, you're here too?"

In an instant, Sharon snapped back to reality. She strode in while returning a smile to Rebecca. "Miss Lambert, you do know that Stanley and I are husband and wife? So, you should have addressed me as Mrs. Jones. Why are you always calling me Miss Cruz?"

This display of power caught everyone off guard. It wasn't just Rebecca, who was stunned. Even the men in the room were all baffled.

The man on the hospital bed narrowed his eyes and looked deeply at Sharon. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.

Not noticing the expressions on these men's faces. Sharon continued to stare at Rebecca. "Miss Lambert, why are you so quiet? Am I wrong?"

Lowering her eyes to hide her emotions, after a while, Rebecca raised her head and said with a smile, "Miss Cruz, you're right. It's just I've been used to it and it's hard for me to change."
