Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 93

It turned into an awkward silence.

He didn't say anything for such a long time; he didn't like it, did he?

"Well..." Sharon stretched out her hand and was about to take back the watch. "I made a mistake. This is not for you..."

The man slapped her hand away and said coldly, "It's not for me? Who are you giving it to?"

He asked in a questioning tone.

Sharon was a little confused. "You don't like it..."

"Who said that I don't like it?" Stanley interrupted her flatly. He slowly opened the button of his sleeve and casually rolled it up, revealing his firm arm.

Sharon was stunned. "What are you doing?"

Stanley ignored her. He took off his watch on his wrist, threw it aside, and wore the watch that Sharon gave him.

Sharon stared at him in disbelief.

Was he out of his mind?

He tossed away his million-dollar watch just like that! Was he insane?

Sharon's heart ached so much at the sight that she quickly picked the watch up and checked it like a treasure, hoping that it was not broken. She had seen this watch in the magazine. It was so expensive that it was almost equal to an apartment.

"Although the quality is not great, I like the style," Stanley said flatly.

Sharon looked up and saw a smile in his eyes. He said, "I like it very much."

Sharon was startled.

He had such a pretty smile.

Sure enough, the rarer the item, the more precious it was.

Thinking about it carefully, she seemed to have never seen his sincere smile. He was always so cold and his eyebrows seemed to be always frowning. Even if he smiled occasionally, it was not a genuine smile.

His smile right now came sincerely from his heart that could mesmerize the people who looked at it.

Stanley stretched out his hand and flicked on her forehead. "Hey, focus."

Sharon immediately came to her senses and growled, "Ouch!"

"Keep that watch. If you like it, I'll ask Anthony to get you a women's version."

He saw that she had been holding the watch he took off all the time, thinking that she liked it.

How could Sharon accept such a valuable gift? She would definitely not afford to pay him back at that time. She had already owed him so much.

She didn't say anything, just smiled faintly and said, "Let's go. I'm hungry."

"Okay."

He answered and seemed to be in a good mood.

In the evening, Sharon asked Melody to join them for dinner. Sharon had spent so much on the gift in order to apologize to him, so she took advantage of this opportunity to make him pay for dinner.

She chose the largest restaurant, ordered the most expensive dishes, and started indulging in the food.

Stanley's expression was indifferent and nonchalant. There was a faint smile on his handsome face as he looked at the mediocre watch on his wrist.

His lack of response made the pleasure of Sharon's "revenge" suddenly decreased significantly.

How much could this meal cost him anyway? He wouldn't mind at all no matter how expensive the bill was.

Sharon growled indignantly. How could there be such a big gap between them? He was so wealthy he didn't have to check the price of anything, yet she was so poor her gift seemed so cheapskate.

Melody smiled in amusement as she watched the interaction between them. She did not say anything and just lowered her head to eat.

After the dinner, being a gracious gentleman, Stanley offered to send Melody home, but she waved her hand, rejected his offer, and quickly hailed a taxi and left.

Sharon did not even manage to say goodbye to her.

She left in such a hurry.

"Let's go back too."

Stanley's voice pulled back her soul.

Sharon nodded and was about to leave with him.

"Mr. Jones!" a male voice resonated behind them abruptly.

Sharon looked back and was surprised by what she saw. She turned back and tried to run, but Stanley instinctively grabbed her. "Why are you running away?"

Sharon panicked. "Let me go!"

But it was too late. Troy had already come to them. "Mr. Jones, Miss Cruz, are you also here for dinner?"

The person who came was none other than the manager Troy Wilson.

Upon hearing Troy's greeting, Sharon, who had been struggling, suddenly stopped. She furrowed her delicate eyebrows and felt suspicious.

"You're here too. What a coincidence." Stanley nodded his head in an indifferent way as a way of greeting.

"Yeah, I came here to have dinner with my wife and children. I just came out and saw you and Miss Cruz. What a coincidence indeed."

Stanley exchanged pleasantries with him. Sensing his indifference, Troy was smart enough to get the hint and was about to leave.

"Mr. Wilson, wait."

However, Sharon said.

Troy immediately stopped and asked, "Miss Cruz, is there anything else?"

Taking a deep breath, Sharon pursed her lips and asked, "Mr. Wilson, why aren't you surprised to see me with Mr. Jones?"

It became eerily quiet.

Troy was a little startled. He did not expect that Sharon would suddenly ask such a question, so his mind began to run at a high speed to think of an answer. "Uh... I'm... just..."

For a moment, he couldn't think of what to say, so he looked at Stanley frequently, hinting him for help.

Stanley raised his eyebrows instead and did not say anything.

Troy started to sweat on his forehead.

"What should I do? How should I explain it to her? Ah, the president is forcing his employees to the dead-end!"

Troy thought anxiously.

"Mr. Wilson, why don't you answer me?" Sharon took a step forward with straight eyes.

Troy didn't dare to look into her eyes anymore.

"..."

Finally...

Stanley who couldn't stand it said, "Troy, you can leave first."
