Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 565

Ariah felt her body burning. She touched her forehead and felt that it was burning too. Then, she muttered to herself, 'Is my fever back again?'

After waiting for Jimmy for some time, she began to feel agitated.

He was the one who asked her out, yet he was no where to be found, not to say his colleagues, who disappeared all of a sudden.

Frustrated, Ariah grew a little bit thirsty. She picked up the glass of water that she drank half earlier and chugged down the remaining water.

Cold water flowed down her dry throat. Only then did she feel a little more comfortable.

Sitting on the bed, she looked at the floor covered in petals and found it somewhat amusing. She never knew that an unromantic guy like Jimmy would know how to plan such a surprise.

Throughout the years they were together, he had never planned such surprises for her.

He knew nothing about romance.

However, most of the women in the world wanted their man to be romantic.

Ariah was no exception.

Looking at those petals, although Ariah found it funny, deep down, she was moved.

It was rare for a man like Jimmy to put his pride in his pocket and do such a thing.

She waited for a long time but nobody came. Standing up, Ariah was about to leave. Suddenly, a wave of dizziness hit her, and she fell onto the bed.

Warmth surged up her body, and the silk quilt on the bed made her feel very comfortable. It was cold, yet she could not help but rub her cheeks against the quilt.

What was wrong with her?

It did not seem like she was sick. Her body and mind seemed to be out of control, and she was yearning for something.

Something must be wrong with her!

After the realization dawned on Ariah, she struggled to get up to leave, but her body was so weak that she did not have any strength left.

A moment after that, she heard the sound of the door opening.

Was Jimmy here?

Ariah opened her eyes. Confused, she saw a tall and sturdy figure walking towards her. She muttered, "Jimmy?"

Sitting down beside the bed, the person reached out his hand to touch her face. The man's hand was ice-cold, and he seemed to possess some kind of magical power. Unable to resist herself, Ariah subconsciously moved closer to the man.

Surprised, Kobi looked at Ariah, who was snuggling into his embrace. The moment he walked in, he already noticed that something was wrong with her. Her face was flushed, and her eyes looked dazed. It seemed like she did not recognize him.

She looked sick, but she smelled so sweet, and it was so tempting.

"Jimmy..."

Ariah whispered softly in Jimmy's arms. He felt her breath on his chest and instantly, his body started burning.

Feeling his body tensed up, his gaze became deeper gradually. Then, he held Ariah tightly, "Baby, are you drugged?"

Obviously, Ariah seemed like she was drugged.

She even mistook Kobi for Jimmy. Kobi had a weird feeling in his heart, but he knew perfectly well that he did not want to push her away.

Although Ariah mistook him for someone else, he did not mind.

As Kobi stared at Ariah's flushed face, the smile in his eyes deepened and his heart stirred.

In the study room at Hudson Mansion.

After Jimmy was done talking to his father, he stood up and was about to leave. However, his father spoke again, "Wait."

Jimmy turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Take a seat first." Mack pointed to the chair.

Jimmy raised his brows.
