Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 823

As soon as Elaine exited the hospital, her phone rang. Pulling out her phone, she saw Howard calling her.

Recalling what Howard did to her just now, she did not answer her phone on purpose.

In the end, he kept calling her. It seemed like he had no intention of giving up until she picked up.

Left with no choice, she had to answer his call, "Hello."

"Where are you?"

"Outside?"

"Come back."

Elaine kept quiet.

She walked up to a bench and sat down. Donning hospital gowns, several patients were strolling in the garden.

Seeing her remaining silent, Howard sighed. "Don't be mad at me. It's my fault. I should have controlled my emotions better."

Elaine did not answer him. She looked down at her feet instead.

Howard added, "You looked really charming just now. Your sparkling eyes were far more beautiful than the stars in the sky!"

That was why he could not help but kiss her.

However, he had no idea that his behavior would scare her.

She was very different from all the other women that he dated before. Pure as an angel, she made his heart flutter with just the smallest move.

"Dr. Perkins!"

It seemed like Elaine was annoyed. "If you keep acting this way, I won't speak to you again."

Howard chuckled. "What did I do?"

Elaine was speechless.

"Men are all the same. I'm teaching you about men, silly."

But no one asked him to teach her using this method?!

"I'll hang up now. I'm making a move first. You should stay behind to look after Miss Kaur..."

Upon hearing that, Howard felt a sense of discomfort creep upon him. "She's your love rival, and you're asking me to take care of her?"

Elaine remained silent.

Why didn't she know that she had a love rival?

Howard continued to speak, "Elaine, I'll ask you a question, and you have to answer me honestly."

"Sure. Go ahead.."

"Norissa wants me to marry her," Howard enunciated each syllable carefully. "What do you feel after listening to what I said? Be honest with me."

Stunned for a moment, Elaine did not know how to answer him.

Howard kept blabbering on, "If I marry her, we won't be able to meet up often in the future. I'll belong to someone else. Do you... want this to happen?"

Elaine kept quiet.

After waiting for a while, Howard started to lose patience. Anxious, he asked, "Why don't you answer me?"

Moments later, Elaine asked, "Dr. Perkins, is Miss Kaur pregnant with your child?"

Howard shook his head. "I'm not sure. We need to do a checkup."

"I think it's your child..." Elaine muttered to herself. "Otherwise, why would she have the courage to approach you? Even if she's lying now, she won't be able to hide the truth once the child is born."

Holding the phone, Howard was unsure how to respond.

That was exactly his concern as well. If Norissa was lying to him now, wouldn't she be afraid that he would expose her in the future?

So there was a possibility that the child was his?

Carefully, he enunciated word by word, "I won't marry her. Don't worry. Even if the child is mine, I won't marry her. If she decides to abandon the child after it was born, the Perkins Family will adopt it. Grandpa will take care of it, and well live our life..."

Elaine was left speechless.

Why did he change the topic all of a sudden?!

Howard was gradually going off track, so Elaine quickly stopped him. "Dr. Perkins, you take care of Miss Kaur first. I will go back and tell Grandpa what happened."
