Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 461

"Ariah?"

Ricco's voice pulled her back to reality. In a low voice, she said, "Yes, it's me. How can I help you?"

"Why didn't you reply to me? I thought you were not there," Ricco said in a deep voice. "Sorry, I've been delayed by some personal affairs, so I didn't inquire about the things about Kierra in the morning..."

"It's alright, I've already asked someone else about her," Ariah responded. "Everyone said that they didn't see her. It must be my hallucination."

Ricco frowned. "Are you sure?"

Ariah fell silent. She was just not sure, which was why she felt that there was something wrong, especially when so many people said that they had never met the girl. Perhaps hallucination could be the only explanation for this.

Soon, she changed the topic, "Ricco, there's something I want to ask you."

"Go ahead."

"Who are you actually?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone. After a long time, Ricco said, "Do you want to know who I am?" "Of course."

"Are you sure you can bear the consequences of knowing who I am?"

"Ariah, it's not that I don't want to tell you. It's just that I'm an inauspicious person. As long as you have anything to do with me, you'll die in the end. For your safety, it's best if you don't think too much about my identity. Curiosity killed the cat."

Upon saying that, Ricco hung up, and Ariah twisted her eyebrows while holding the phone.

After standing there for a long time, she let out a long sigh and suppressed the questions in her heart. She then looked in the direction of the study as she walked over.

There were two sections in the study. One was where Jimmy worked, and the other was where Ariah put her documents. There was a treadmill in the corner, and he would run on it whenever he had nothing to do.

When she pushed open the door, she saw the athletic man on the treadmill.

Slowly, she moved over and cleared her throat as she said, "I want to discuss something with you."

"What is it?"

"Are you sure you want to talk to me on this treadmill?" She raised her eyebrows.

He had a habit of running when he was in a bad mood. The angrier he was, the faster he ran. He had been running while Ariah was talking on the phone for a few minutes. Therefore, he was drenched in sweat although he had just taken a bath.

With his eyes squinted, he asked, "What? Are you going tell me what you have discussed with Ricco?"

His words betrayed a little jealousy, which even he himself did not notice.

"I want to talk to you about Anna," she said coldly.

"Plop."

Jimmy lost his balance and fell onto the treadmill before he was thrown to the ground, which shocked Ariah. Covering his stomach, Jimmy grunted, "Don't come over. I'm fine!"

She stood there in a daze. Was this guy an idiot? How could he throw himself off on the treadmill?

He took a few deep breaths until his stomach felt better. After he stood up against the wall, he cleared his throat and calmly turned off the treadmill as if nothing had happened. "What did you say just now? I didn't hear you."
