Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 802

Following Vincent back to the bedroom, Elaine drank some of the water in the glass and handed it to Vincent who was behind her. "Here, your water."

Vincent took it but he didn't drink the water.

Seeing that, she asked casually, "Didn't you say you're thirsty?"

Still, he didn't speak and just played with the glass, to which she gradually grew a little anxious. A while later, he finally said, "There's something that I wanna ask you."

Elaine froze. "Wh-what?"

"Earlier, you clearly were angry at me, so why are you acting calmly now?" His eyes were full of doubt. "What are you thinking? Or, what are you planning?"

Without saying anything, she suddenly splashed the water in her cup at him.

Vincent dodged the attack right away.

Then, he frowned and looked at her deeply.

But she just shrugged and said, "Is that how you want me to react?"

He was puzzled.

"If I'm acting like I do normally, you get suspicious. So do you prefer me to shout and make a scene instead?"

With that said, she stared at him with a poker face.

Vincent was surprised a little. Suddenly, he laughed and looked at her with a burning gaze.

Under his laughter, Elaine was a little frightened.

However, he just finished the water in the glass and took her to bed with a smile. "Come sleep with me."

She put up with it.

On the bed, he pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, which made her a little difficult to breathe. She snorted and pushed him, but he hugged her even tighter as he thought that she wanted to escape.

"Hmmm..."

She moaned as her face buried in his solid chest.

Listening to the thumping beat of his heart, she was running out of breath so she pounded on his chest to signal her discomfort.

However, Vincent thought that she was having a temper so he didn't loosen his embrace.

After a few struggles, she stopped moving.

Only then did he realize that something was wrong. He quickly released her and saw that her face had turned red.

Then, she rolled her eyes and snapped, "Are you trying to kill me?"

"Who would hug a person so tight like you? I almost can't breathe!"

She yelled in anger.

"I... I'm sorry.”

She wanted to scold him further, but seeing his apologetic look, she swallowed her anger and said, "Never mind..."

Pouting, she then asked, "Have you never hugged someone? Why are you using so much strength?"

"Well, I haven't. I'll be careful next time."

Elaine was surprised.

He actually had never hugged anyone before?

Although she was curious about that, she didn't ask it out.

Surprisingly, after a pause, Vincent took the initiative to explain, "I don't like to be intimate with others, and neither do I like being disturbed during my sleep. But you're an exception. I like to sleep with you in my arms. You make me calm down."

Hearing that, Elaine took a few glances at him before asking, "That day at Dr. Perkins's house, I woke up and found you awake in the living

room..."

"Yeah, that's me."

As if knowing what she wanted to ask, Vincent nodded. "The first time we met was at Howard's home."

"That was the first time we met?"

"Actually, it's earlier than that day."

"Like when?"

Glancing at her, Vincent hesitated whether he should tell her or not.
