Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 500

Hearing that Ella had demanded him to sit down and finish up the meal with Jean, Jimmy was quite frustrated.

"Mom, what on earth do you want?"

"I just want you to have dinner with Jean."

"But I'm done eating."

"Well, wait for her to finish up then!"

Jimmy had completely lost his patience. With a stern look, he said, "I don't have time to do this. I gotta get going now."

Saying that, regardless of Ella's sullen look, he went straight to the kitchen to pack up the food one by one into the thermos, then stormed out.

"This b*stard really pisses me off," thought Ella as she heaved heavily.

Jimmy rushed to the hospital and went straight to the ward. But when he pushed open the door, Ariah was nowhere to be seen.

Instantly, he got anxious and went to look for the nurse at the nurse's station. "Have you seen the patient in that ward? Did she leave without permission?"

The nurse pointed in the direction of the corridor and replied, "I seem to see her going over there..."

Before she could finish, Jimmy had left.

Meanwhile, Ariah and Ricco were at the stairwell.

Glancing at her sitting on the staircase, Ricco joined her and asked in confusion, "It's warmer in the ward. Why do you wanna come here?"

"Because I can't smoke in the ward."

Ricco was surprised. "You wanna smoke?"

"Yes. Do you have a cig?"

"Nope! Why? You're craving for it?" Ricco refused without thinking.

Ariah rolled her eyes at him. "Nah, I don't crave for it."

"Then why do you ask me for cigarettes?"

"Well, I need to relax. Don't you men always smoke to calm down your thoughts?" Ariah was really annoyed with him asking all sorts of questions, mumbling, "Please, stop acting like my mum. Duh.”

Hearing that, Ricco was a little speechless. "Well, the trouble doesn't go away after that. One will still be bothered by the same thing. Anyway, what's bothering you? Maybe I could offer you some insight."

Ariah was about to reject him when she thought of something. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Is there a grudge between Kevin and Jimmy?"

"Yes."

"What kind of grudge is it?"

"Well, it's a deep grudge." Ricco stretched his legs and said lazily, "Had Jimmy not told you about this yet?"

Ariah shook her head in silence. She had been kept in the dark ever since the beginning.

"How did Jimmy and Kevin become enemies?"

Ricco made a gesture of stopping. "Well, I'm afraid I can't answer this as it involves Jimmy's privacy. If you really wanna know more about the exact story, it's better to ask him."

Hearing that, Ariah shot him a glare. "Just now, you were the one who said you could help."

"Yeah, but even if I tell you everything, you won't feel any better."

Ariah was speechless.

"Is there anything else you wanna ask?"

"Yep."

"Go ahead."

"What's the grudge between you and Kevin?"
