Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 354

Sharon immediately regained her senses and stopped him. "The phone is ringing!"

"Let it be!"

Stanley was a little displeased.

Covering herself with her clothes, she moved under his arm and got down from the bed with a flushed face. "Go and have a look. What if there is something important?"

In spite of his headache, he still took a deep breath and walked out of the room.

Being left alone there, she stroked her warm face and bit her own lips.

In the living room, Stanley found his phone on the couch. When he saw the caller ID, he frowned. Although he was impatient, he could not help but answer the phone, "Why are you calling me in the middle of the night?"

It was a call from Ryan, who didn't sense the unpleasant tone of Stanley. In a very straightforward manner, he asked, "Where's your wife?"

That question amused and annoyed Stanley, for the abrupt call had interrupted his ambiguous moment with Sharon, which was hard to come by. "You care about my wife a lot, huh?"

It was at this moment that Ryan detected the irritation of Stanley, who must have been jealous, so he shook his head and laughed. "What are you thinking? I have something to discuss with her."

"What is it?" Stanley's squinted eyes exuded a dangerous aura. "Is there anything that you can't let me know? I'm her husband."

"No, I can't tell you. This matter concerns her, so she will tell you if she would like you to know about it."

Having known this obstinate man for about three years, Stanley understood that he would always follow his own principles. As his eyebrows knitted together, he held the phone with his slender fingers and silently walked into the bedroom.

Alerted by his footsteps, Sharon, who was still ruminating on what had just happened, immediately yelled at him, "You can't force me to do something against my will!"

It was clear that she did not want to sleep with him tonight.

Standing by the bed, he narrowed his eyes and looked at her with his dark expression, which conveyed his displeasure in a voiceless way.

Flustered, she got up from the bed and stood akimbo. Her tone was imposing as she asked, "Did you not hear what I have just said?"

After staring at her for a while, he said with a grin, "Alright, I'll listen to you."

His smile was somewhat dazzling under the warm light, which made his facial features deep and charming. As she observed his eyes that were glittering with mysterious emotions, her heart could not help but skip a beat. The previously domineering aura thus receded from her, who fell into silence.

It was until he shoved the phone into her hand that she came to her senses. With a doubting expression, she stared at him and asked, "Why..."

"It's Ryan. He wants to talk to you."

"OK." Sharon nodded and answered the phone. "Hello."

Then, he walked toward the bay window, where he saw the two children's toys. Leaning on the wall, he looked at his wife who was talking on the phone with his squinted eyes. By observing her expression, he hoped to decipher the content of the call.

He did not know what Ryan had been discussing with her, for she was first stunned before she frowned and appeared hesitant.

She even raised her head and looked at him.

In response, his eyebrows twitched, and his expression became more unfathomable.
