Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 88

"Is he going to pick me up with his red Ferrari?" Sharon shivered as she thought to herself, "No way. If he comes with his Ferrari, I'll be drowned in gossips tomorrow."

"Uh, Mr. Frazier, I really don't have time. How about next time..."

"Do you have to work overtime tonight?"

"Uh, no."

"Have you taken dinner?"

"No."

"If so, why can't you go out for dinner with me?"

Sharon was stunned by his question, and then blurted out, "Mr. Frazier, are you... are you have a crush on me?"

It became eerily quiet.

Sharon stood quietly, feeling awkward. The question came off the top of her head involuntarily.

Liam had helped her several times. She was grateful for that, but she was not dim-witted. She could sense that he attempted to approach her deliberately.

It was so quiet after she asked the question that she thought he had hung up. "Hello, Mr. Frazier. Are you still here?"

Of course, Liam was there, but he was a little taken aback. He did not expect that she would be so blunt and direct.

The reason why he approached her was that he wanted her to fall in love with him so that he could take revenge on Stanley. Since she had made it clear, he didn't have to pretend anymore.

After a while, he said, "Yes, I like you. From today onwards, I intend to formally court you." Sharon was neither surprised nor delighted. On the contrary, she was a little astounded. "Stop pulling my leg, Mr. Frazier. It's not funny at all."

"I'm not pulling your leg. I'm serious."

"Why do you like me?"

"I fall in love with you at first sight. Does it count?" Liam smiled.

The basis of falling in love, at first sight, began from the lustful thought. Was he fascinated by her beauty?

Thinking of this, Sharon immeditely shook her head for her narcissism.

"I won't force you. I'll give you some time to think about it. Sharon, I really like you. If you date me, I'll give you half of all my things. Money, power, all of it."

At this point, Liam paused and then continued in a low voice, "And your father. I can find him the best doctor or send him abroad. He can be treated by advanced medical technology and may wake up one day."

Sharon curled her hand into a tight fist and her eyes widened. "You checked me?"

"Sorry. I owe you an apology for learning about this without your permission. That day in the hospital, I saw that you were so sad. Later, I asked my doctor friend about it, and that's how I knew about your father."

There was a hint of temptation in Liam's voice. "Think about it. As long as you be with me, we will set off immediately and fly abroad to find the medical technology company to help your father."

Sharon fell silent and pursed her lips into a straight line.

Liam was right though. Nowadays, technology was so developed that human cloning was even possible, so it was possible for a vegetative patient to wake up, right?

Sharon admitted that she was tempted by his terms, feeling a little flame of hope was ignited inside her.

She stood still and kept silent for a long time.

When she got off work in the evening, Hazel called her and said that Stanley still didn't come back.

Sharon was silent for a while, then said that she got it, and kept the phone away.

After thinking for a while, she asked Melody out.

It was summer, and the two of them sat at a barbecue stall and drank beer. She wanted to tell Melody about Liam, but she felt a dilemma in her heart and decided to just drink instead.

Melody was very observant though. She could sense Sharon's low-spirited mood, so she took a sip of beer and asked, "What's wrong? Do you have something to tell me?"

Sharon nodded honestly. "Yes."

"Spill it."

"I... I just want to rant about a man."

When she was about to speak, she changed her mind. Even though Liam's terms were tempting, it was not realistic.

After all, she was married to Stanley. It was impossible for her to go abroad with another man just like that. Besides, she did not know Liam well. Who knew whether he was kind or not?

Melody laughed and said, "Did you have a conflict with your overbearing president again?"

Sharon snorted, "He's so petty. He tried to take advantage of me, so I kicked him in the groin and he didn't talk to me when we got home. Oh, I don't know how he knew about Jewel's check, and he seemed to be pissed off about it. I took the initiative to call him last night, and did you know what he said? He said he didn't come back because he was in the middle of a business meeting with someone. I think he was just fooling around."

There was too much information in Sharon's rant that it took Melody a while to digest it. She put down the glass and raised her eyebrows, asking, "You said you kicked your husband in the groin?"

Sharon explained timidly, "It was just a gentle tap. I didn't kick him that hard..."

"Even so, it's still very painful. It's very dangerous to collide that area with external force when a man has an erection!" Melody rolled her eyes. "Aren't you afraid that he will become a eunuch!"

Sharon was shocked. "Is it that bad?"

She really had no idea.

Melody sighed and said, "Silly girl, I'm sorry for your husband."

Sharon swallowed, and her mind began to be chaotic as she thought of the painful look on his face in the car that day; the way he broke out in cold sweat, and his face and lips were all pale. She thought that he was just pretending, but she didn't expect that it really hurt...

"Didn't you explain to him what went on between you and Jewel?" Melody remembered what she said and asked again, "Didn't you tell him what you were really thinking inside?"

Sharon shook her head. "I didn't explain, nor did I say anything to him. He doesn't need to know my thoughts. If he wants to misunderstand, so be it."

On the contrary, Melody became anxious. "Can't you clarify if there's a misunderstanding? Don't you know to explain yourself?"

"D*mn you!"

Sharon's hand trembled. "Melody, watch your manners, please. You are supposed to be cool and indifferent. You can't talk like that."

Melody rolled her eyes at her and didn't want
