"Be careful!"
Before Sharon fell down, a strong big hand circled around her waist and steadied her, while Stanley's husky voice sounded next to her.
Her heart trembled. Just as she closed her eyes, her body naturally fell backward at the same time.
Fortunately, the bed was right behind her.
But she was buried underneath Stanley's sturdy, wide chest, which was heavy as stone, making her difficult to breathe. When she opened her eyes, she looked into his insightful eyes.
Sharon tried to push him away. However, Stanley quickly clasped her fingers and looked at her squarely. "I don't know that Ayana had come to Beachmarsh City. I didn't take the initiative to hug her. She was the one who rushed over, and I immediately pushed her away."
Stanley then continued explained, "Also, I will never marry her. I only have a wife, and that is you."
Sharon was startled.
His hand was very big, almost covering her small hand. He then lowered his head and planted a kiss on her forehead. "I took her to dinner today only because I wanted to make things clear to her. I didn't expect her to be so agitated and hugged me. Is that what you were upset about until now?"
He knew exactly what she thought. Sharon was a bit annoyed, but at the same time, also felt a little embarrassed, because he could always see through her mind.
Looking at his dark eyes, she asked, "Why didn't you want to marry Ayana suddenly? I remember back in Allgate City, you swore to marry her!"
Stanley was at a loss for words.
He couldn't just go on and tell her that he decided not to marry Ayana since he had regained his memory now.
Seeing that he was silent, Sharon felt angry for some unknown reason and pushed him hard. "Go away, I wanna get up!"
As expected, she couldn't move him at all, and her arms felt sore after just a few pushes. Stanley looked down at her. Under her frustrated stare, he slowly continued, "Because I've fallen in love with you again. I can't marry another woman."
Sharon stopped struggling and widened her eyes.
What... did he say?
Meanwhile, surprisingly, Stanley felt a little unease, just like four years ago when he confessed his feelings to Sharon.
But he was even more nervous now.
Despite that, Sharon didn't give much of a reaction upon hearing his confession, other than staring straight at him with her doe eyes. Stanley felt a little uncomfortable. Why was this woman in a daze? Didn't she know what was going on?
"Ahem..."
He cleared his throat and was about to speak when Sharon, who was in a daze, murmured, "You're so heavy that I can't breathe..."
Stanley was speechless.
Nevertheless, he lifted his weight off her body and stared at her, who was underneath him. "Sharon, did you hear what I just said?"
Sharon didn't dare to look him in the eye, and her gaze wandered around. "Wh-what?"
"I said I like you. I won't marry Ayana, so don't worry." "I see..."
Stanley frowned. What kind of a reaction was this?
Instantly, Sharon's chin was pinched, and the moment his fingers touched her, her body couldn't help but tremble. Her heart was beating very fast, and even her earlobe had turned red, though she still wouldn't look at him, worried that he would find out about her feelings.
Because right now, she was truly nervous.
In a gentle manner, her chin was lifted by him, and she bit her lips, secretly cursing herself for being panic after hearing him saying a few sultry words.
