Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 653

On the way back, the two of them sat in the car and said nothing.

Ariah rubbed her belly, trying to help with digestion.

Suddenly, she remembered something and shouted, "Turn back the car!"

"What's wrong?" Jimmy asked.

"I promised Emily that I'll stay and keep her company tonight... Now, because of you, I totally forgot about it!" Ariah complained. "Take me back to the hospital now. I won't be going home tonight."

"We almost arrive at your place. Do you think it's possible to turn back the car now?"

"But Emily..."

"I'll call the hospital later and make sure someone is looking after her. You can rest assured."

Seeing that she was still worried, Jimmy said, "What she needs right now is rest. It doesn't matter whether you're present or not."

It made sense.

Ariah could only sigh and listen to him.

"Alright, then I'll go there early tomorrow." She leaned back into her seat and glanced at the man beside her. "Since I gotta sleep early, we're not doing anything tonight, do you understand?"

Jimmy looked at her with a faint smile. "Do you expect me to do something?"

Immediately, she was choked speechless.

Shameless!

He was trying to trick her again.

Jimmy's lips curled up slightly while he tapped lightly on the steering wheel.

Arriving home, Ariah rushed to the bathroom instantly. "I'm gonna take a bath. Help yourself."

She left so quickly that it was as if she was fleeing.

But of course, she was avoiding him, because back in the elevator, Jimmy looked at her pressingly.

Nevertheless, Jimmy just snorted and let her go. He wasn't bothered since the night was still long. Closing the door, he changed his shoes and went to the living room. Right then, his phone rang and it was Mack.

He walked towards the sofa and answered the phone. "Dad."

"I'm outside Kobi's ward. Where are you?"

"Ariah and I just got home."

Mack went silent for a moment, and then snapped, "What are you thinking, Jimmy? Director Sherlock had called me earlier, and yet, you weren't even bothered to inform me?"

If Director Sherlock hadn't told him that Kobi was sent to the hospital, he wouldn't have known about it at all.

Jimmy massaged his temple and replied, "It's not what you think. I plan to inform you tomorrow as it's getting late now. Besides, you've got very tired from this, so I wanted to let you have a good sleep today."

However, Mack snorted. "I promised to give you some time to deal with this, but how could you not keep me updated at all?"

"I don't have time now. I'll tell you when everything is sorted out," Jimmy said faintly, "Anyway, it's late now. I still have something to attend to, so talk to you later."

"Didn't you arrive home already? What else do you need to do?"

Taking a glance at the bathroom door, Jimmy could hear the sound of water coming from inside and his gaze deepened. "Well, gotta go now. I can't keep Ariah waiting too long."

Immediately, Mack understood what he meant and couldn't help but blush, though slightly annoyed. "Alright, don't forget to come home when you have time. Your mom is a little worried."

"Got it."

When Jimmy hung up the call, Ariah just happened to come out of the bathroom. Seeing that, he took off his coat and walked towards her.

Ariah glanced at him and quickly ran into the bedroom, slamming the door shut.

Being shut outside the bedroom, he sneered. "Open the door!"

Inside, Ariah leaned against the door, clutching her clothes. "You go sleep in the guest room."

"Fine."

Getting his reply, she was a little surprised.
