Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 801

Upon listening to Vincent's words, Elaine was stunned.

What did he just say?

"Are you saying that... you want to imprison me?" Regaining her voice, Elaine asked in a daze.

"If that's what you think, yeah." Vincent pursed his lips.

Instantly, Elaine got furious. "How could you do that? Mr. Bradbury, it's illegal to imprison someone. You can't do this to me!"

Chuckling, Vincent said, "Well, I've killed someone before and that's illegal too."

Hearing that, Elaine couldn't utter a single word.

Indeed, he was still not captured after killing people.

She didn't know what to say anymore, so she got up and wanted to leave.

Even if it would take her hours to walk back downtown, she would still do it.

She would not ask him for help anymore!

Suddenly, there was a 'beep' sound behind her. She didn't take it to heart at all as she pushed the door, but she couldn't open it.

Elaine was shocked for a moment. Then she frowned and tried again harder. But still, the door wouldn't open.

Having no choice, she turned around and asked, "What have you done?"

Vincent, who was leaning against the headboard, asked back casually, "What have I done?"

Right then, Elaine noticed that he was holding something like a mini remote control in his hand, so she directly asked, "What is that thing in your hand?"

"This?" With his hand raised, Vincent answered, "Oh. It's a key."

"What key?" Elaine had a bad feeling in her heart.

"It's a smart key for the door," he said with an evil smile.

She knew it was him!

As expected, he locked the door!

Standing still, Elaine was angry but she couldn't do anything. She glared at the man in frustration, demanding, "Why did you lock the door? Open the door and let me out!"

"Have you forgotten what I said earlier? You're not leaving here today." "Why are you doing this? What good will it do for you to imprison me?"

"I'm not imprisoning you. I just hope that you could stay to accompany me." His voice was soft and his eyes were filled with joy.

Elaine was surprised.

"Can't you tell? I like you."

Hearing that, she was stunned to the spot and widened her eyes in shock. She couldn't say a word.

In the end, she merely stood there in silence.

Vincent looked her up and down for a moment, then he suddenly waved at her. "Come here."

But she didn't move.

He then lay down on the bed, mumbling, "I'm sleepy now, but I can't fall asleep without you by my side."

Elaine was choked speechless.

Her body trembled slightly, and the tip of her ears became hot.

Noticing that she was embarrassed, he gazed at her with a smile.

She didn't dare to look at him at all, so she drooped her head.

"Come here, or do you want me to carry you?"

Yet, she still wouldn't move.

Suddenly, she heard him get up. Startled, she looked up and said, "S-stop there! I-I'll come by myself!"

Vincent stood still and watched her in silence.

Gritting her teeth, she had no choice but to walk over.

As soon as she got close to him, he let out a soft laugh and pulled her onto the bed, hugging her tightly from behind. Gently, he then rubbed his chin against her neck and Elaine didn't dare to move a bit.

Fortunately, he didn't do anything further.

Only then was she relieved.

She closed her eyes and contemplated something.
