Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 727

Just like that, Ariah lived at the Myers residence, while Jimmy would go there every day without fail.

At first, she found him annoying and appalling, but she gradually got used to it.

No matter how she mocked him, Jimmy always donned a nonchalant expression that pissed Ariah off.

She felt as if she was talking to a brick wall.

As time went by, she learned to ignore his existence.

She pretended that he was not there or that he was an eyesore. When she couldn't stand seeing him around anymore, she would lock herself in the bedroom.

They went to work in the daytime anyway, so they only saw each other for a few hours at night.

At first, Dakota was worried that things would take a turn for the worse if they went on like this, but Jimmy would show up every day after work without any sign of distress. His action convinced her that they would be able to fix their problems and return to normal.

However, she advised Ariah at times, "Although I don't know what happened between you and Jimmy, I can see that he's very sincere and devoted. Men don't have much patience. Don't be too stubborn."

Knowing that her mother was saying this for her own good, Ariah relented, "I'm pregnant right now. If he doesn't have the patience, I can't imagine how our lives would be for the next few decades."

Stunned, Dakota couldn't say anything.

After a long while, she mumbled, "Well... Bind the sack before it is full. That's all I can say."

"I know."

Ariah knew that her mother was on her side now.

Glancing at her clearheaded daughter, Dakota said, "The other day, Jimmy told me that he didn't have an affair. He even swore on his mother's grave."

Surprised, Ariah didn't expect him to do such a thing.

"Since it's just a misunderstanding, why are you so mad at him?"

Unlike her, Ariah looked gentle and kind, but deep down inside, she was as stubborn as a mule.

Ariah pursed her lips, wavering. Frankly, she wasn't mad at Jimmy, but she felt very insecure.

When Jimmy was not around, she had thought about many things. At first, she blamed him for always paddling his own canoe without taking her into consideration. He would throw himself into anything for others but she would be the one to be sacrificed if anything happened.

Gradually, she concluded that the reason she had such thoughts was that she felt insecure.

Jimmy couldn't give her the sense of security she needed, so she wanted to break up with him.

Now, she became more and more determined about it.

Today, Jimmy got off work early and was surprised that Ariah wasn't at home. Dakota pointed outside and explained, "She came back at noon, saying that she took half a day off today. Since she rarely goes out, I asked her to meet her friends."

Jimmy frowned. "Mom, she's pregnant now. How can you let her out like that?"

"It's not like she's a prisoner. Relax, she wasn't alone. Someone came to pick her up."

"Who?" "A young man. He said he's her friend. Quite handsome actually."

Pursing his lips to resist his rage, Jimmy asked, "What's his name?"

"Oh? I can't recall. Wait! I remember! Ariah introduced him to me. I think it's Ricky or Rico..."

Before Dakota could finish, Jimmy disappeared like a gust of wind.

Dakota glanced at his back, bewildered.

As he was driving, Jimmy put on his Bluetooth headset and called the b*stard Ricco. Both he and Felipe were such troublesome jerks!

Ricco used to fall for Ariah, and Felipe, his apprentice, had moved in and stayed with Ariah while he wasn't around. They should count their blessings for he didn't go after them for this.

Yet, Ricco showed up in front of Ariah again!
