Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 288

For a moment, Sharon thought that she had misheard him and was taken aback by his words. However, Stanley turned to his side and uttered, "Didn't I say that I was going to send you back? Let's go then."

Hearing those words, Sharon regained her senses and quickly nodded.

"Oh, you don't want to leave?" Stanley narrowed his eyes and glanced at her. "If you don't want to leave, then I'll..."

"No, I mean... sure! Let's go!" Immediately, Sharon walked forward and asked, "Where did you park your car? Is this your car?"

Looking at the anxious woman, he smiled faintly as he strode over to her. Staring at the woman who was standing under the light, he subconsciously lowered his voice. "It's over here."

Hurriedly, Sharon opened the door and got into the car as if she was afraid that he might suddenly go back on his word.

After the car had driven a distance away from the place, Sharon acted all concerned and asked, "Uh, is it okay if you don't return?"

Earlier she heard that he had promised Mr. Mo that he would return soon. If he didn't return, would the people over there be searching high and low for him?

Also, the way of her asking him that question earlier was just her act of politeness.

In fact, what she wanted the most was to spend some alone time with him.

"Tonight's event is important. It will determine whether the few contracts that we proposed would succeed. So do you think it will be okay if I was not present at the scene?"

At that moment, the man on the wheel threw the question back at her.

However, Sharon didn't expect things to be so serious and was a little dumbfounded. Why was he still willing to send her back then?

Did he not want to sign the contracts anymore?

It was indeed the most important thing for a businessman to get the contract they wanted. Although Sharon did want him to return to continue his business meeting, she also really wanted him to stay by her side. At that moment, she didn't know what to do, and there was an intricate look on her face.

Glancing at her intricate and complicated expression, Stanley found it a little funny. He didn't know how a person could be so full of expressions?

"Are you hoping for me to go back?" A moment later, Stanley cleared his throat and asked.

Hearing his question, Sharon clenched her teeth and answered determinedly, "Not at all!"

"Oh?"

"In my opinion, you can never be able to earn all the money in the world. Besides, it's just a few contracts, so there shouldn't be too much of a hindrance, right?" Uncertainly, Sharon asked.

"Indeed." Calmly, Stanley nodded.

That's great.

Hearing his answer, Sharon heaved a sigh of relief.

However, he then added lightly, "But these contracts are all worth hundreds of millions."

Those words left her speechless.

Taken aback by what he said, Sharon's jaw dropped so low that it was almost dislocated. Was it necessary for him to speak like this?

After hearing his words, she became even more hesitant in her decisions than she was before. At that moment, she had no idea whether she should just ask him to return to

the meeting. Besides, she was actually just tipsy, and she was not drunk at all, so she was definitely capable of going back alone.

If she didn't let him go, it would be a serious matter to lose the contract. But if she let him returned, she would lose the chance to be alone with him...

In her whole life, she had never been so hesitant before.

Before she could make a decision, she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Half an hour later, Stanley had finished smoking his second cigarette, but the woman in the passenger seat next to him had not woken up yet.

The smoke made him squint his eyes slightly as he glanced at the sleeping woman. At that moment, his brows frowned, but he was also surprised that she actually fell asleep in front of him unguarded. However, he didn't know whether to say that she was good at sleeping or that she was so simple-minded that she could sleep in front of an unfamiliar man.

After waiting patiently for another ten minutes, the woman who was sleeping still did not wake up, so Stanley pursed his lips and called out her name, "Miss Cruz?"
