Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 798

Shocked at first, Paul shrieked excitedly, "Really?" At the same time, Elaine was equally surprised. Previously, she thought that he would not let them go tonight because of his persistence, but never did she expect that Ruben's nonchalance remark would change his mind.

She wondered what Ruben told Vincent.

It must be something compelling since he agreed to let Paul go just like that!

Looking at Ruben, she smiled gratefully at him, and Ruben waved his hand to her, indicating that she should take the frightened Paul out of here.

Therefore, she pulled Paul's hand and ran out of the room.

Allen was shouting desperately behind her. "Elaine, don't leave! If you leave, I'll never forgive you! If your parents find out that you're such a person, they'll beat you up... Ah!"

After Elaine left, Ruben turned around and kicked Allen who was shouting for help.

The kick landed squarely on Allen's chest that he fell to the floor, wailing in pain.

Ruben growled at him indignantly, " despised him and said, "Instead of doing something serious and legal, you break into other people's house and even kidnap a woman. Shame on you!"

Vincent followed Elaine and Paul out.

With that, Ruben turned around and went out as well.

When she was about to leave with Paul, she heard a man's faint voice coming from the stairs. "Where do you plan to go at this late hour?"

Turning around, she saw that Vincent was slowly walking down the stairs.

Her heart thumping nervously, she opened her eyes wide and stared at him nervously.

"Where do you want to go at this late hour?"

Vincent came to her and repeated.

Taking a deep breath and calming down, she blurted, "Since Paul is fine, I will leave with him right now. Thank you for your hospitality these days, Mr. Bradbury."

Instantly, Ruben felt that the air in the room turned cold.

As he looked at Vincent, he looked extremely gloomy.

Massaging his forehead helplessly, Ruben looked at Elaine speechlessly. Why would she speak to him in such a tone? Did she try to provoke Vincent to reveal his brutal side again? He didn't know whether to say that she was bold or ignorant.

"Leave?" Vincent's expression was as stiff and cold as a statue. "How do you plan to leave?"

She bit her lips.

Indeed, she didn't know how to leave this place since there was no car nor bus at this hour.

But if she didn't leave, she had to stay here.

And she didn't want to stay here with him.

"Ahem."

Clearing his throat, Ruben stepped forward to mediate the dispute again, "What about this? It is getting late now, so why don't you stay at my place for a night? I'll see you off tomorrow. Is that okay?"

Before Elaine could say anything, Paul immediately jumped out and shouted, "No, we must leave today. I don't want to stay here anymore! Let's go!"

This place was like hell to him and he didn't even want to stay for one second. He just wanted to leave right now.

Glaring at him, Ruben wished he could smack Paul right there and then if he weren't Elaine's brother.

But he couldn't do that. He could only smile dryly and teased, "Tell me, how do you plan to leave?"

"If you don't have a car to send us out, well walk out of here!"

"If you want to leave, go ahead, but what about your sister? Do you want to drag her to suffer with you in the middle of the night?"

Suffer? She wouldn't die from exhaustion by walking this mere distance. When they were living in the countryside, Elaine had to climb the hill by herself, which was even more suffering than now.

If it was in the past, Paul would naturally say it out loud.
