Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 656

Upon asking that, Jimmy realized that his father went stiff instantly.

A moment later, Mack picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip of tea, slowly saying, "Your mom is just saying it out of anger. Can't you tell?"

Really?

As a parent, would Ella really say that?

Besides, just now, when he was downstairs, he had already sounded Hazel out.

It was obvious that Ella had not shown much care toward Kobi.

They were both her children, so why was there such a big difference between the love they received?

Back then, Ella didn't even notice that Kobi had been hiding in a box for an entire afternoon.

If it were Jimmy himself, she would be panicked if she had not seen him for a minute, let alone the whole afternoon.

Jimmy looked at his father with a sharp gaze. "Dad, I'm not a three-year-old kid. Do you think I will believe in your excuse?"

"How dare you say that!"

Mack's face turned black, and his eyes were filled with anger.

Jimmy frowned as he had never seen his father so furious like that.

It seemed that he had touched Mack's bottom line.

Upon some thought, Jimmy broke into a smile and said lazily, "Dad, don't get angry. It could cause your blood pressure to rise."

Mack looked at him, and the anger in his eyes didn't diminish.

Seeing that, Jimmy knew that he couldn't get by easily this time.

With his hands spread, he finally promised, "Alright, I won't meddle in this anymore. Calm down."

Getting his assurance, Mack withdrew his gaze and leaned back into his chair.

"You can leave now." Mack no longer sounded angry. "Go deal with your business and sort out the evidence. I'll call Mr. Hamilton later and tell him the whole story."

Jimmy stood up and smiled. "Sure. Thanks for doing that for me, dad."

Mack just waved his hand and said nothing.

Before leaving, Jimmy cast one last glance at the drawer where the photo was kept. The drawer wasn't shut tightly.

On the way to the hospital, Jimmy's phone rang. He glanced at it but did not answer it.

The phone rang for a long time before hanging up.

After a while, it started to ring again, which seemed to signal the anger of the man over the line.

Just then, the car came to a stop due to the red light and Jimmy picked up the call finally. "Do you know how dangerous it is to answer the phone while driving?"

"Tsk, are you cursing yourself?" Ricco sneered. "Why didn't you inform me about the arrest of Kevin?"

If someone hadn't tipped him off today, he would still be kept in the dark!

Tapping on the steering wheel, Jimmy replied lazily, "Haven't I informed you? Oh, sorry. I must have been too occupied."

"Hey, you!" Ricco's tone turned cold. "You're avoiding my calls because you're afraid of my questioning, aren't you? You're deliberately keeping it away from me!"
