Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 815

The car stopped in front of the villa, but Elaine remained seated, not moving an inch.

After getting out of the car, Vincent noticed that she was still in the car. Frowning, he asked, "Why are you still sitting in there?"

Obviously, she did not want to enter his house. She wanted to leave this place.

However, she did not dare to say it out loud.

Vincent opened the car door for her, but she remained still. Raising his eyebrows, he asked again, "You want me to carry you?"

Elaine kept silent.

Quickly, she got out of the car and headed straight towards the villa.

Seeing that, Vincent was left speechless.

Meanwhile, Morgan had been waiting for them at the door for a long time. When he saw them coming back together, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, they were both fine.

However, Elaine looked very unhappy. Hence, he asked, "Miss Jacob, what's wrong?"

Not bearing to get angry at the butler, Elaine shook her head and said, "Nothing. I'm going up to get some rest."

With that, she dashed upstairs before Vincent came in.

When Vincent entered the house, he saw her running upstairs. After staring at her for quite some time, he looked away and walked into the house.

Curious, Morgan said, "What's wrong with Miss Jacob?"

Instead of answering his question, Vincent said, "Get her a change of clothes. She was in the hospital all day, and it's disgusting. Ask her to take a bath."

That neat freak...

Morgan answered quietly, "Yes."

Not long after Elaine entered her bedroom, someone knocked on the door. She said in a low voice, "Come in."

The maid pushed the door open and said without entering, "Miss Jacob, Morgan asked me to bring you a change of clothes."

Taking the clothes, Elaine replied, "Thank you."

The maid felt somewhat curious, yet she was too embarrassed to look at her. "Your welcome."

Elaine closed the door. After not showering the whole day, she indeed felt a little uncomfortable, so she went into the bathroom with the clothes in her hands.

However, halfway through her shower, the lights in her bedroom went out.

Instinctively, she let out a scream.

Suddenly, the room turned dark, and she could not see anything at all. Frozen to the ground, she waited for the electricity to come back.

Yet moments later, the power still did not come back.

Gradually, Elaine calmed down and started fumbling for her towel.

In the silent darkness, she heard a faint sound.

Pricking up her ears, she called out, "Who is it?"

"It's me."

Vincent's voice came from outside the bathroom.

Elaine blurted out, "Don't come in!"

Perhaps because she sounded too flustered, instead of halting, Vincent strode over to the bathroom, worried that something might happen to her. Pushing the bathroom door open, he shone his flashlight at her, "Are you..."

All he could see was Elaine's panic-stricken face and naked body...

Instantly, Vincent froze on the spot.

Then, came Elaine's angry voice, "Who asked you to come in?!"

Hastily, she fumbled for her clothes, but the bathroom was wet and dark, so she tripped.

"Be careful!"

Vincent reached out to hold her.

At the same time, she threw herself at him.

Hence, they bumped into each other.

Bong!

Both of them fell to the ground at the same time.

The flashlight in Vincent's hands rolled away, and the room went dark again.

However, Elaine did not feel any pain as she fell on Vincent.

Hearing Vincent's grunt, she felt a little guilty yet angry at the same time. "Who asked you to come in? I told you not to come in, but you still came in!"

He deserved it!

As soon as she finished, she realized Vincent was not responding.

On top of that, it seemed like his breathing was getting heavier.

The next second, realization dawned on her that she was on top of Vincent. Hastily, she tried to get up, but he held her waist and pressed her down.

Stunned, Elaine asked, "What are you doing?"

Vincent hugged her tightly.
