Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 672

Emily's brother?

Flashing an empty smile, Jimmy asked, "Oh, so it's easier to approach him if he's her brother?"

What was he talking about?

Just as she was about to explain, Ariah suddenly thought of something and looked at him suspiciously, "Jimmy, are you jealous?"

"You think I'm like you?" Jimmy sneered.

"Well, if you're not jealous, then you must be out of your mind. Yes, Emily's brother is undeniably goodlooking, but please use that smart brain of yours to think over whether I'd fall in love with him."

"If that's not the case, then come back with me."

"Wait here. I'll go check on Emily..."

Before she could even finish her sentence, Jimmy grabbed her wrist. Feeling edgy, Jimmy asked in an impatient tone, "Why do you need to check on her?"

"She seems reluctant and unwilling to leave with her brother. I should go back and check on them, what if something wrong happened..."

"Mind your own business. What could happen to them anyway?"

Not wanting to listen to any more explanation, Jimmy dragged her directly into the elevator.

It was obvious that he was extremely against Ariah going back to meet Edward.

Call it a man's intuition, but he felt the dangerous aura exuded from Edward. Even the way he looked at Ariah earlier made him feel disgusted.

Edward's naked scan on Ariah felt too purposeful as if he had something plotted in mind. That made Jimmy feel extremely uncomfortable.

Though Jimmy's face was slightly uncomfortable, Ariah didn't notice it. While he was dragging her to the car, she kept on murmuring, "You're so petty! He could have been a married man with children! Besides, I've also told him that I'm married! How could he still be interested in a married woman..."

"Anyway, their parents sure have strong genes! Emily and her brother are equally good-looking. Her parents must have beautiful features to be able to give birth to beautiful children..."

"When a man's eyes are as deep as the sea and as blue as the sky, you'd feel like drowning in his eyes..."

"Screech—"

Without warning, the car suddenly came to an abrupt halt. The friction between the tires and the ground produced an ear- piercing sound. If it weren't for the safety belt, Aiah might have already flown out of the car!

Furious, Ariah scowled, "Jimmy, what were you doing?!"

Looking at her coldly, Jimmy prompted, "Go on, keep saying, I'll start driving when you're done."

Feeling her skin tingle under Jimmy's strong gaze, Ariah asked, "What...what should I be saying?"

"Didn't you ramble on non- stop just now?" The corner of Jimmy's mouth curved into a smirk. Seeing that, Ariah felt chills running down her spine, "Don't...don't give me that smile! Just tell me!"

"I just didn't expect you to swoon over a guy," Jimmy snorted.

Face turning scarlet red, Ariah immediately replied, "Okay, okay, I admit it, alright? Now let's go."

After staring at her for a few seconds, Jimmy curled his lips into a smirk. Without saying a word, he started the car and left.

Now Ariah could only give Emily a call to make sure she was alright.

In the ward.

After talking on the phone with Ariah, Emily leaned on the hospital bed while watching TV. She then said lazily, "Edward, go back to the hotel. I don't need you here. I can take care of myself. Besides, there'll be nurses coming to check on me at night." Standing beside the bed, Edward said, "I'm here to take you back. Aren't you going to leave with me?"

"I'm going home, but not now. I'll leave in a few days, so why don't you leave first?"

"How about you?"

"I haven't decided on a specific day yet but I'll call you when I'm ready."

Feeling ridiculous, Edward laughed and picked her up straight from the bed, "You're toying with me, aren't you?"

"Let me go! It hurts!" Emily bit him. "If you keep bullying me, I'll call the police! Let me go, you b*stard!"

"Do you think I have all the time in the world? I purposely came here, and you're making a fuss?" Edward dragged her forcefully out of bed. "Go back to the hotel with me now, and we're going home tomorrow morning!"

"Help!" Emily cried out.

Clutching onto the edge of the bed, Emily started to throw a tantrum and refused to leave.

"Emily!"

"If you have the guts today, then beat me to death. Otherwise, I won't leave with you!" Emily's temper sparked. "I said I'll go back! It's not like I won't go back with you. Why are you so anxious?"

Having used up all his patience, Edward felt as if rage nearly consumed him. His good- looking features were now replaced with a menacing look. Taking a few deep breaths, he managed to calm down. Swinging his hands off her, he turned around and left.
