Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 457

Instead of Jimmy or the doctor, the first person who Ariah met the moment she opened her eyes was Ricco.

Soon, her memory came to her mind. She wanted to jump up and beat him up, but her body was too weak to move. Gritting her teeth, she glared at him and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Am I that scary?" Ricco said with a smile, "Aren't you happy to see me?"

Why would she be happy? She had no feelings for him after all.

"Where is Jimmy?" Ariah suppressed her emotions and did not want to talk about how he had forcefully taken her away from her house.

"Jimmy? I was the one who saved you. Why are you still looking for him?"

"You saved me?" Ariah's head hurt. "I saw Jimmy before I fell into a coma. How could it be you?"

"You're wrong. It's me, not Jimmy," Ricco replied in a serious tone.

"Ricco, I didn't mess with you. I'm serious. Where is Jimmy? I want to see him!"

Ricco then leaned back, and his whole back fell into the chair. Fixing his eyes on her, he said, "I won't tease you anymore. I really don't know where he is. You were alone when I came to the hospital. I didn't see him."

Ariah frowned upon hearing that. How could Jimmy not be around when she had been injured? Or was there something that bothered him at the moment?

Ariah shook her head while trying to stop her imagination from running wild. She struggled to sit up from the bed as Ricco said, "Do you help?"

Ariah rolled her eyes at him. "No thanks. I'm not crippled, so I can do it myself!"

Ricco then shrugged without saying anything.

As Ariah got up, she took two deep breaths. After thinking for a while, she asked, "What did the doctor say? Did I get hurt?"

"No, you were neither raped nor hurt by the man. Ariah, I have to say that you're really lucky. You're the first person to escape from the serial killer without suffering any injuries."

She didn't know whether she was so lucky or it was because of Jimmy's timely arrival.

Ariah frowned. "A...a serial killer?"

"Yes, the murder cases in the past few months were all committed by the man who caught you."

It was only now that Ariah started to feel afraid. She had managed to escape unscathed from the hands of this devil? It was simply unbelievable. She recalled Dayna's expression when she told her about this murderous devil. That girl's life had been ruined. Ariah could not imagine what would happen to her if this had happened to her...

"Oh right!" Thinking of something, Ariah suddenly sat up straight. "Where's Kierra? How's she doing? Did you guys save her?"

"Who's that?"

"The18-year-old girl who was locked up with me there. Her name is Kierra. Where is she now?"

Ricco slowly frowned. "I haven't seen the person you said."

"Didn't you see her? You didn't show up at the scene in time, did you? Where's Jimmy? No, I have his phone number. Give me my phone. I'll call him and ask. He must have seen that girl."
