Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 376

"Didn't you say that you don't care about me?" Triumphantly, Shawn smiled and honestly answered, "I know that Stanley will definitely strike on me once he returns, but I didn't expect him to be so ruthless. In fact, he didn't leave me any route of retreat, so I guess he really wanted to kill me."

At that moment, Sharon was taken aback by his words. Although she thought somehow knew what happened to Shawn must have something to do with Stanley, but Stanley had never told her about it, nor did she ask. Besides, she didn't expect to hear these things from Shawn today.

The way Shawn spoke without the intention to hide it from Sharon made her sneer. "Are you trying to cast a bone between us again?"

When Shawn heard her question, he teased, "If your relationship is strong enough, then my provocation and dissension will definitely not work." When he said that, he narrowed his eyes and continued, "From your reaction just now, I believe you didn't know that Stanley had done those things to me."

Meanwhile, Sharon pursed her lips without saying a word. Even though she did suspect him before, she really did not think too much about it.

There was a moment of silence on the phone. When Shawn heard the shallow breathing from the other end of the call, his heart softened. "Sharon, what happened last time was my fault. I didn't mean to treat you like that, but I was too angry, and I didn't manage to control my temper for a while, so I was a little impatient. I swear that I won't do this again in the future. Will you forgive me?"

With a poker face, Sharon answered, "As you said, Stanley had already pushed you to the edge, so I don't think there will be any future."

At first, Shawn was stunned, but then he chuckled. "Sharon, I see that you're getting smarter." At the end of the laugh, his voice turned a little cold. "But I won't accept my fate. Unless he kills me!"

All this time, Shawn was known as a stubborn and persistent person, so no matter how Sharon tried to persuade him or tell him off, it seemed like he would never listen to her.

In a daze, Sharon held onto the phone until Shawn said in a low voice after a long time, "I still have something to do, so I don't have time to talk to you today. Wait for me to get through this crisis, then we will sit down and have a nice talk, okay?"

"From now on, I will never see you again."

With absolute certainty, Shawn smiled and replied, "You will."

Then, he hung up the phone.

Meanwhile, Sharon was stunned as she held the phone in her hand. After a long time, she finally put the phone back into her pocket while she stood in front of the mirror and took a few deep breaths before she turned around and leave.

However, as soon as she opened the door, she saw a figure flashed by.

Stunned, Sharon's voice rang out. "Ryan?"

When she called out Ryan's name, he had no choice but to stop. When he turned around, a rare expression of awkwardness was on his face. "Miss Cruz."

Suspiciously, Sharon asked, "Why are you here?"

At that moment, Ryan smiled at her, but he didn't say anything.

Immediately, Sharon understood what he meant. "Did Stanley send you to check on me?"

"Miss Cruz, it's good that you understand. He's just worried about you, so he ordered me to protect you secretly all the time."

After the last incident with Isai, Stanley had never left her side. Even if he had to leave, he would order his bodyguards to follow her.

No wonder he was so rest assured to let her accompany Ariah in the ward alone. In fact, he had arranged for someone to secretly protect her.

After Sharon gave it a thought, she nodded and said, "Thank you."

As Ryan waved his hand at her and thought for a moment, he then pointed to the washroom door and explained, "Just now, I realized that Miss Cruz had been alone in the washroom for a long time. I was afraid that something bad would happen to you, so I eavesdropped at the door for a while..."

At that moment, Sharon raised her eyebrows and asked, "So you've overheard the conversation I had just now?"

Awkwardly, Ryan laughed, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop. Please don't be angry."
