Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 536

After Ariah finished speaking, Kobi remained silent for a long time while gazing at her.

"Kobi?" Ariah waved her hand in front of him.

Kobi came back to his senses. "Yeah?"

"So, will you agree?"

"Well, I wouldn't have acted like I didn't know you last night if I had wanted to say it."

Hearing what he said, Ariah heaved a sigh of relief. Indeed, if Kobi wanted to get acquainted with her, he would have done so in front of the Hudsons.

But he didn't.

Anyway, Ella didn't like her already. If she found out that Ariah was acquainted with both Jimmy and Kobi and even used to date Kobi, Ella would probably never accept her as their daughter- inlaw.

Nevertheless, getting Kobi's answer, Ariah was finally at ease.

"Are you worried that I'd say I know you in front of my family?" Kobi could not help but laugh when he saw her expression.

Ariah stuck out her tongue. "Oh well."

Staring at her, Kobi then asked, "Anyway, how are you gonna tell Jimmy about this?"

"Well, I'll wait and see."

"He's been irascible since he was a kid. So, it's very likely he'll get mad when he learns about this.”

Kobi was stating the fact plainly.

Sighing, Ariah was worried about this too, which was why she didn't mention it to Jimmy when they left the Hudsons' Mansion.

She knew Jimmy too well. He would definitely get mad if she told him about her past with Kobi.

"Well, why don't we do it this way." Seeing that she was in a dilemma, Kobi suggested, "Let's not tell him about this first. When the right time comes, the four of us-me, Emily, you, and Jimmy-gather together and talk it through."

Ariah hesitated. "Um... are you sure?"

"Well, since Emily and I are getting married soon, I'm thinking that with Emily around, he would probably be more forgiving."

Ariah agreed with what he said.

"Alright, let's talk about this later." She then changed the subject. "Anyway, how long are you gonna stay in Beachmarsh City this time?"

"I'm not sure yet."

"Are you gonna stay for the New Year?" "Probably."

With a smile, Ariah persuaded, "It's been years since you last came back. Why don't you stay for the New Year this time?"

His parents must have wanted him to stay here longer, too.

"Do you want me to stay for a while?"

Without thinking much, Ariah nodded. "Yeah."

"Then I'll stay a little longer."

Ariah was stunned for a moment. Knowing that he must have misunderstood, she quickly waved her hand and clarified, "Ah, no. What I mean is that your parents must have missed you and wanted you to stay a little longer too..."

However, Kobi just sat there looking at her explaining anxiously and his smile grew wider. Ariah was a little embarrassed by his gaze. "What... what's wrong?"

"Nothing." Kobi chuckled. "Haha, you actually get panicked easily like before, despite your smart look. Don't worry. I know what you mean. After not seeing you for this long, I'm hoping that there's more time for us to catch up this time."

"Ah, I'm a little worried that there won't be much common to talk about now that you're a Ph.D.."
