Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 281

On the way to Allgate City, Sharon's team was sitting in the car. The cameraman and the assistant were sitting quietly on one side. Ever since they got in the car, Sharon had been staring at a photo in her hand. It felt like she was about to burn a hole into the picture as she was too focused.

The way she was absorbed into it was frightening.

The assistant nudged the cameraman and gave him a signal, indicating for him to go over and ask.

Among them, the cameraman was the oldest. So it would be much better for him to communicate with Sharon.

"Ahem.¹' After clearing his throat, the cameraman said, "Sharon, is there something fishy in this photo? You have been staring at it for more than an hour."

From the moment he showed her the photo, she behaved abnormally. Due to shock, she even knocked over the glass in her hand. Then without a word, she went to the Editor-in-Chief office and applied to go to Allgate City for an interview.

Anyone with discerning eyes could see at a glance that there must be something fishy in that photo. Otherwise, she would not have shown such a big reaction.

Putting away the photo in her embrace, Sharon smiled, "Oh. It's nothing. I just saw an acquaintance in the background of this photo."

Acquaintance?

The cameraman tried hard to remember the photo printed by him. It was a photo taken in the hospital. At the time, a reporter was caring for a patient, so he captured the moment and put it on the Internet.

The background of the photo did not only consist of the hospital corridor. There were also doctors and patients, as well as some family members of the patients passing by.

So the acquaintance that Sharon mentioned was between the doctors or the patient's family members?

Although the cameraman wanted to ask further, Sharon looked as if she was not willing to disclose more. Closing her eyes, Sharon pretended to sleep. "I didn't sleep well last night. So, let me take a nap. Wake me up when we've arrived, okay?"

Since she's made it clear, they did not pester her further about the picture. All they could only do was let her sleep peacefully.

Actually, Sharon could not fall asleep. Her mind was filled with the figure in the photo. It was a silhouette of a side profile of a man wearing a suit and a tie. He looked exactly like Stanley, whose life and death was unknown four years ago.

For four years, she had been searching for him. She had been to many places but failed to find him.

In the past few years, even if she saw someone familiar to Stanley on the road, she would still run over like a madman. However, she was disappointed every time.

They merely looked similar to him, but was not him.

Similar to the situation she was currently in, she was not sure whether the man in the photo was Stanley or not.

But even if there was only a glimmer of hope, she would go and confirm if it was truly him.

Hours later.

The first thing Sharon and her team did when they arrived in Allgate City was to find a hotel. After arranging for them to rest, Sharon took the photo and went to the hospital. She came to the exact location of where the photo was taken.

A week ago, a pandemic broke out in Allgate City. So, all the hospitals were overcrowded. Sharon stood in the corridor wearing a mask and suddenly felt confused.

Now that she was here, but what was her next step?

The hospital was a place with a large number of people. How was she going to find him? Where was she going to start?

Standing in place for a moment, Sharon was at a loss of what to do.

After a long time, Sharon put the photo back into her pocket and planned to go to the nurse station to ask for some information. In the end, she reported Stanley's name. Unfortunately, the nurse told her that there was no such person in the hospital.

With a sigh, Sharon had no choice but to adopt the stupidest method. One ward after another, she began to search for Stanley.

After spending quite a few hours, in the end, not only did she not find a person who was similar to Stanley, but she was even more confused.

If she deliberately came to Allgate City this time, but she still could not find him, what should she do? Did she rejoice too soon?

Just when Sharon was disappointed, her eyes suddenly lit up, and a figure from afar came into her sight.

But why was she here?

With a frown, Sharon thought for a while and decided to follow her and take a look.

Sharon followed her at a perimeter that was not too far or too close. The woman in front seemed to be walking very slowly. At last, she stopped under the shade of a tree. Only then did Sharon realize that she was on the phone. Who was she talking to?
