Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 390

When Ariah threw the key straight at Jimmy, he didn't dodge, and he stood right where he was without even moving. With a "bang", the sharp corner of the key directly slit a cut in his forehead, but he didn't feel pain at all.

Instantly, Jimmy frowned as he raised his hand and touched the blood on his head.

With the corners of his lips pursed, he picked up the key and clenched his fists.

The words that Ariah said echoed in Jimmy's mind while he smiled bitterly. The marriage between them was supposed to be an alliance, so they had no feelings for each other when they were newly married.

Back then, he was in desperate need of a family, and the Myers Family was also in desperate need of a capable family to rely on, so they had Ariah to marry him.

The two of them got married on the spur of the moment, and it was a marriage without any emotional attachment.

After so many years, they had been living a peaceful and harmonious life. For years, Ariah had always been sensible and liberal. Since she already knew that their marriage was an alliance hence, she never meddled in his matters.

In fact, she had played a very good role as his wife.

Sometimes, Jimmy would even think that the idea of marrying Ariah was the best decision he had ever made in his life.

Throughout the past few years in their marriage, she had never once made him worried. No matter how late he returned, she would always take care of him like a good wife. Sometimes, even when he did not return for a few days because he was too busy with work, she didn't even complain.

At first, he didn't think it was a big deal. Later, when he saw his colleague's wife couldn't stand that kind of life and divorced his colleague, it was then that Jimmy came to his senses and felt Ariah had sacrificed a lot for him.

Therefore, even though there was no affection in the marriage between them, Jimmy still treated Ariah extremely well and placed her name under all his assets in hopes to make up for it.

At first, Ariah didn't want his money, but then he forced her to accept it.

Since then, the way she looked at him seemed to have changed. Back then, Jimmy didn't notice it, but now that he thought about it, he felt that Ariah might have had some feelings for him.

That feeling made him feel very comfortable and happy.

However, when he thought of her resolute gaze when she threw the key at him, Jimmy's heart trembled fiercely.

It seemed that this time, she was really mad at him.

For a long time, he stood in place and did not move, as his body hid in the dark corner while loneliness and desolation enveloped him...

Meanwhile, when Sharon left Hazel's place, she received a call from Stanley. As soon as she picked up, he said in a concise voice, "Come downstairs. I'll wait for you downstairs."

"Where are you now?" Startled, Sharon immediately asked.

There was no way that he would suddenly be here, right? In fact, she had been hiding the fact that she came to Hazel's place from everyone, especially Stanley.

As expected, when she walked out of the apartment building, she saw his tall and slim figure that was standing by the car. The long black coat that he wore made him look even more handsome and apathetic.

Just as Sharon was in a daze, Stanley had already stridden over and took her hand as his brows furrowed, "Why is it so cold?"

Meanwhile, Sharon hadn't come back to her senses as she answered, "I just washed some clothes with cold water..."

As she spoke, she suddenly came to his senses and widened her eyes, "Stanley, why are you here?"

Coldly, Stanley snorted and pulled her into the car. While he warmed her hands, he said in an unhappy tone, "Isn't it better to stay at home? Why did you have to come here to make your life miserable by helping others to wash their clothes?"

However, Sharon was not angry at all. As she looked at his handsome facial features, she smiled and answered, "There is no washing machine at Hazel's house, that's why the clothes can only be hand washed. Since Loria has to cook, I'm the only one who can wash the clothes."
