Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 704

As soon as she was done talking, Kobi's face turned a shade paler.

Ariah felt a wave of relief wash over her, as though she just stood up for Emily.

"Do you know who she went home with?" Smiling, Ariah continued, "She went home with her fiance. I don't think she'll be going back to Beachmarsh City this time. Who knows, I'll be able to receive her wedding invitation soon."

Instantly, Kobi's expression changed. "Who did you say she went home with?"

"Her fiance..."

"That Lennon guy?"

"Yes." Confused, Ariah asked, "Do you know him?"

She thought that Kobi did not know Emily had a fiance, so she wanted to use Lennon to provoke him. Surprisingly, he knew about it.

Anxious, Kobi walked forward. As his movements were too big, he accidentally pulled his wound. Feeling a wave of pain shooting through him, he halted and supported himself against the wall.

"Hey!" Ariah was shocked. She stepped forward to help him up. "Are you alright?"

She did not expect Kobi would react that way.

Taking a deep breath, Kobi asked, "Did he force Emily to go with him?"

Ariah cast him a glance, unsure of what to say.

Shaking off Ariah's hand, Kobi looked at her coldly, "Emily told me about her fiance. Do you know what did she tell me?"

Having a bad feeling about what Kobi was going to say, Ariah shook her head.

"Emily is terrified of that guy because he used to torture her. When Emily and I first got together, she had nightmares every day. Lennon is her greatest fear!" Kobi felt anxious and furious. "How can you just stand there and watch him take her away?"

Ariah was dumbfounded. "He... tortured Emily?"

"You can't imagine how much of a psycho he is." A trace of tolerance flashed across Kobi's eyes. "Although Emily didn't tell me everything, I heard stories of him confining and raping her."

Ariah was totally shocked. She shook her head in disbelief. "No... It's impossible. I met Lennon. Although he doesn't seem to be too friendly, he's not as terrible as what you've just described. He doesn't seem like a psycho to me..."

Looking at Ariah coldly, Kobi asked, "You are a psychologist. You've seen so many patients with mental issues. Can you know whether they're good or evil just by one look?"

Ariah was left speechless.

Gradually, she began to feel anxious. If what Kobi said was true, then Emily would be...

No way. She doubted Emily would be in any danger.

Ignoring the pain, Kobi pushed her away and strode out of the ward. Ariah chased after him. "Where are you going?"

"To get discharged." Kobi answered calmly, "I'm going to Mathines to find Emily."

Ariah followed behind him quickly, "Are you really going to look for her?"

Kobi kept silent.

Knowing that Kobi had made up his mind, Ariah did not stop him. After pondering for a moment, she said, "Alright then. Be sure to find Emily. Also, remember to protect yourself."

If Lennon was really an evil person like what Kobi described, he might hurt Kobi.

Kobi paused, looked at her, and nodded. "I know what I'm doing."

After that, he strode away.

He did a lot of mistakes and broke Emily's heart, so he wanted to make up for it.

Watching Kobi's figure gradually disappearing, Ariah stood frozen to the ground for quite some time. Kobi's words kept running through her head...

She had no idea that Emily, such an innocent and lovely person, used to experience such terrible things.
