Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 670

David drove the car back to the police station. Throughout the journey, Jimmy didn't even say a word.

When they finally reached their destination, Jimmy opened his eyes and said, "Stop the car here. You can go in first, I'm going to smoke."

"Aye, alright."

For some reason, David felt that Jimmy seemed to be in a bad mood after coming out of the infirmary.

Not daring to ask anymore questions, he took a step out of the car. Suddenly, he noticed something from the corner of his eyes. Surprised, David asked, "Captain, are you going to propose to Ariah?"

Hearing his question, Jimmy glanced at him and asked, "What?"

"Look!" David smiled and said, "Your ring box fell out."

Looking at the direction David pointed at, Jimmy saw the box that fell out of his pocket.

Picking up the box, Jimmy put it into his pocket and asked, "Did you exchange numbers with Ariah on WhatsApp?" "That's right. How did you know that?"

"Then keep your mouth shut. Don't talk nonsense to her on WhatsApp."

"Don't worry! Your secret is safe with me," answered David. Wasn't he just trying to give Ariah a surprise? Seriously, he didn't have to purposely tell him to keep it a secret!

With that, Jimmy waved him away, "Go now."

Instead of leaving him alone, David stayed. "Captain, how are you going to propose to Ariah? Why don't you tell me? I'll help you out!"

"Who said that I was going to propose?"

"If not to propose, why did you buy a ring?"

"Who said buying a ring means you have to propose? There are so many married people out there, do you think every man with a ring proposed to a woman?"

"Well, maybe not every man proposed..." David pouted. "Captain, don't tell me you're not going to propose to Ariah? You're just buying a ring for her for the sake of buying?"

Not knowing what to say, Jimmy kept quiet.

What was the point of a marriage proposal? He had already bought a ring. Wasn't it enough to express his feelings?

"Then let me give you a piece of advice. If you don't propose to her, I don't think Ariah will agree to remarry you!"

Shooting daggers at David, Jimmy snapped, "Shut your mouth, will you?"

"I'm just telling the truth! If Ariah wanted to remarry you, she would have done it a long time ago, but she didn't. Do you know what that means?"

Hearing that, Jimmy froze for a second. David's words made sense. Then, he narrowed his eyes out of skepticism and asked, "What does that mean?"

"It means that Ariah wants you to do something big! For example, you have to get down on one knee and propose to her in public!"

With a smile, Jimmy asked, "You've watched too many dramas, haven't you?"

His smile was more of an offensive smirk.

Patting his chest, David answered, "If you don't believe me, then forget it! Women are all the same. Even though as men we feel that it's embarrassing to kneel on the streets and propose, women, on the other hand, will be moved by these actions."

In the end, David had begun to mutter, "I already have Ariah's character all figured out. She looks stubborn on the outside but she's very softhearted. If you're nice to her, she will help you unconditionally..."

"You've had it all figured out?" Jimmy sneered. "I haven't even figured out her character, yet you have already?"

Oops, that was awkward.

Without replying, David got off the car and ran back into the station. "I'll head in first."

Looking back at David, Jimmy sat on his spot for a while. When he suddenly thought of something, he sighed and took out his phone to make a call.

There was no answer from the other side of the phone.

Jimmy then snorted and sent a text message.

"Someone else will be taking over Kevin's case three days later. If you want to kill him, do it in three days. Don't blame me for not telling you beforehand. You can kill him, but if you don't succeed, you have to bear the responsibilities on your own."

After a while, a text message came from the other end, "What?"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to help you. I just can't bear to see you tortured by painful memories."

Even after waiting for a long time, he didn't get any reply from the other side.

Narrowing his eyes and staring at the phone, Jimmy edited his message before sending out, "I know you were the one who followed me to the infirmary earlier. Don't do anything rash to Kevin for now. The superiors will take over this matter in three days. I won't interfere with anything you do by then."

"Is that true?"

This time, the person replied pretty quickly.
