Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 372

Meanwhile, Ricco remained frozen until the door of the ward was closed. After that, he headed straight to the bedside and looked down at her arm. "Your ex- husband's marksmanship is not bad. He was even able to move the gun and shoot aside to save your arm in such an emergency."

At that moment, Ariah glanced at him and asked suspiciously, "What's with the wound on your face?"

The area around his eyes was swollen, and the skin at the corner of his mouth was torn, bleeding faintly. It was quite scary.

With a faint smile, Ricco answered, "I fought with someone before I came to visit you."

That answer left Ariah speechless.

"Don't you want to know what happened to the person?"

"Uh, what happened?"

"The doctor is currently bandaging his wounds. The condition of his injuries is more serious compared to mine."

"In that case, I'll mourn for him."

Clearly, Ariah had seen Ricco's skills. In fact, she and Ricco met each other by fate when she went to the bar to drink and ended up being molested by a group of hooligans. In a hurry, Ariah grabbed him and asked him to call the police. As a result, Ricco alone took those ten hooligans down that night.

A few of them were even seriously injured and were admitted to the hospital. However, Ariah didn't know what happened to them in the end.

It has been many years since Ariah stayed by Jimmy's side. Sometimes, Jimmy would bring home some documents from work, and Ariah would occasionally look through them. Over time, Ariah had developed penetrating insight skills.

In fact, she also had an intuition for those who might be a threat. Just like Jimmy, when he encountered criminals, he also had an intuition deep in his heart, and he could tell whether the other party was unkind.

Well, she did get the feeling of unkindness from Ricco.

Supposedly, Ariah should stay away from a person like him. However, he was the one who saved her life after all, and if it wasn't for him the other night, she would definitely have faced a terrible ending.

Although he didn't seem like a good person, at least he didn't do anything to hurt her.

"What are you thinking about?"

While Ariah was deep in her thoughts, Ricco's low and hoarse voice pulled her back.

At that moment, Ariah blurted out, "I was thinking about how we met."

With a faint smile, Ricco asked, "I was a hero who saved the damsel in distress that night. Shouldn't you repay me by throwing yourself in my arms?"

A hero? With her lips curled, Ariah muttered, "Are you even a hero? I think you're more like a bad person."

It was a very soft voice, and only she knew what she was talking about, but Ricco was able to hear every word she said.

Insidiously, Ricco smiled and lowered his body as he stared at her with his brown eyes. "That night when you asked me for help, I did tell you that I was more terrible than those hooligans. Besides, I did ask you if you still wanted me to save you, but you immediately nodded without saying anything."

When Ariah heard those words, she gulped. That was indeed the case.

However, the situation was urgent at that time, and there was no time for her to think about it. As long as someone could save her from that situation, she did not care whether he was a hero or a devil.

"Hey... don't come so close to me!" Ricco's scent filled her nose which made her uncomfortable. "Stay away from me!"

After Ricco stared at her for a long time, he smiled and said, "Women are indeed ruthless. Last night when you hugged me to sleep, you were not as ruthless as you are now!"

Immediately, Ariah's face turned pale. After he mentioned it, the incident that happened in the morning flooded her mind.

In fact, the moment when she opened her eyes and saw that she was lying on the same bed as Ricco, her head was already in a daze.

However, the next second when Jimmy barged in, his eyes turned red, and he fought with Ricco like a mad man. All the things that could be demolished in her house were all torn down by the two of them... Things ended the moment Jimmy shot her, and she was then sent to the hospital and entered the operating room. Now she was awake, but the matter was brought up again by him.

As Ariah tried to remember what happened the night before, she stared into his brown eyes and asked slowly, "Nothing happened between us, right?"

Eloquently, Ricco smiled and said, "You have a mole on your chest..."

In an instant, Ariah's face turned pale.

How did he know about such a private matter??
