Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 149

Sharon waited for several hours but yet Stanley did not come back.

She waited from 10 pm to 11 pm, and finally waited until 11:30 pm, but Stanley still didn't come home.

She yawned but her eyes couldn't defeat the exhaustion. She couldn't stand it anymore.

Finally, she fell asleep on the sofa.

When Stanley came back, he pushed open the door of the bedroom and saw this scene.

Saliva dripping from Sharon's mouth as she fell into a deep slumber.

His whole day's worth of exhaustion vanished immediately when he laid his eyes on Sharon who looked sloppy in her sleep.

He walked to the edge of the sofa and carried Sharon on the sofa up. He frowned as he exerted his strength and pulled on the wound, yet he endured the pain and carried Sharon back to their bedroom.

Sharon was a light sleeper. When he touched her slightly, she woke up. Instinctively grabbed the person who was holding her and said, "Honey, don't go..."

Stanley's heart twitched as he looked down and saw the sleepy Sharon holding him tightly. Her little face was full of confusion, looking rather silly and adorable.

He pushed her, and the woman in his arms rolled out on the bed.

Sharon woke up at once as she almost fell off the bed. She grabbed the sheet, raised her head, and glared at him. "What are you doing?"

Stanley didn't even look at her.

He lay down and put his hands on the back of his head, exuding the air of "I'm pissed; stay away from me".

Sharon darted her eyes around. Restraining her anger, she crawled over and took the initiative to smile and said, "Why did you come home so late?"

Stanley closed his eyes and did not move.

Sharon gave a dry laugh and said, "Did you hang out with Jimmy again? You can't go out and do whatever you want. Be careful not to hurt yourself, or it will take longer for you to recover fully."

Stanley remained lying there quietly. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Sharon continued, "I see that the injury on your face is not yet healed, and you look rather pale. Why don't you rest at home today and tomorrow, I will go to the hospital with you to let the doctor check on you. If there is still a problem, let's get admitted and let you heal first, okay?"

Stanley, who had been closing his eyes all this time, slowly opened his eyes and stared straight at her with his calm and deep gazes.

His stare sent chills down Sharon's spine.

After a while, he reached out his hand to her. "Come here."

Sharon immediately retreated and shook her head desperately. "No!"

It was obvious that he was going to hit her. She definitely wouldn't go to sacrifice herself.

"Don't let me repeat it again. Come here!"

Sharon was angry and glared at him. "Even if you are not happy, you can't hit me! I tell you, domestic violence is against the law. If you beat me up, I will tell Jimmy and let him lock you up..."

"Who said I'm going to beat you up?" Stanley put on a long face. "Come here and let me hug you!"

W-What?

Sharon was so bewildered that she couldn't even talk properly. "Y-You want to hug me? Are you having a fever? Oh, d*mn! You must

have fried your brain! Wait here. I'll call Dr. Perkins and ask him to come over... urn!"

Stanley stretched out his long arm and directly dragged the babbling Sharon over to him.

Sharon fell into his embraced and was clutched tightly. He was so strong that he almost embedded her into his body.

Sharon was so shocked that she couldn't move.

As time went by, the man holding her did not move. Instead, he hugged her tighter.

Lying in his arms, Sharon's dull mind slowly woke up and began to run rapidly.

Speculation No. 1: What happened to Stanley?

Speculation No. 2: Was it a smoking gun? Did he intend to confuse her first and then punish her?

Speculation No. 3: Stanley was crazy.

No matter what kind of speculation it was, it was not good.

Swallowing her saliva, Sharon hesitated for a while and said slowly, "Can you let me go first? I can't breathe!"

Stanley remained quiet.

He didn't say anything, but he gradually loosened up his hug.

Sharon breathed out a sigh of relief.

"What do you want to know? Ask away." Sharon had long been mentally prepared. "No matter what you want to know, I will tell you everything and never hide anything!"

Stanley narrowed his eyes.

Sharon thought that he did not believe her, so she raised her hand and said, "I swear."

Stanley nodded. "Well, I'm lazy to ask. Just spill everything out, and I'll listen."

Sharon rolled her eyes, speechless. How could he be so lazy?

"There's nothing between Shawn and I."

She looked at him and said, "He woke up in the afternoon. I went to the hospital to check on him. He was all right, so I left."

Sharon almost patted her chest and promised, "Nothing happened between us. Don't overthink it."

Stanley glanced at her. "Then what's with that kiss between you and Shawn?"

Sharon suddenly felt guilty. "Well... I..."

She didn't know that Shawn would forcibly kiss her, and she definitely didn't expect that someone would take pictures of her and publish them!

"Say it!" He raised his voice and looked unhappy. "What's going on with that news?"

Sharon licked the corner of her mouth and said, "You left me alone on the balcony. I was bored and sleepy. I didn't even know when Shawn appeared and he suddenly kissed me..."

His expression turned cold and Sharon quickly added, "But don't worry. As soon as I woke up, I immediately pushed him away."

Stanley snorted, blue veins popping out on his forehead.

Seeing that he was enraged, Sharon immediately shook his arm and said coyly, "Is this enough?"

"Not enough. As for the other things, give me a clear explanation!"

Sharon didn't intend to hide anything about her and Shawn, so she honestly told him everything he wanted to know, "My dad adopted him and I regarded him as my brother. He had stayed in my house for four years, but one day, he suddenly left and there was no news about him from then on. I didn't expect that he would appear in Beachmarsh City..."

"All right." Stanley waved his hand impatiently to interrupt her. "I don't need to know so clearly. Forget about today's matter, but don't see him again in the future."

Sharon wanted to say something, but she held it back after looking at his cold expression.

"What's the matter? Do you have something to say?"

"I thought you would be very angry. I didn't expect you to be so kind and reasonable. You forgive me once I explain it to you." Sharon began to flatter him.

Stanley sneered and said, "If you lied to me, do you think I would still be so calm?"

Sharon was stunned. "What do you mean?"

"Jackson told me briefly about your relationship with Shawn Lewis. I also asked Anthony to send someone to your hometown to investigate your family affairs overnight." Stanley looked straight into her eyes as if he wanted to penetrate her soul. "I know everything about you and him!"

If he didn't know that there was nothing between them, he wouldn't be so calm. If Sharon really dared to betray him, he might strangle her with his own hands.

Sharon was dumbfounded. Was he saying that he was trying to get words out of her? If she tried to lie to him with a fluke, she might end up in a miserable situation now!

How could he be so bad!

Sharon depressingly pounded the bed.

Stanley looked at her lazily, admiring her regretful expression.

He found that as long as he was with her, her reaction, her expression, and all kinds of flattering attitude could make him feel better unconsciously.

For example, when he came back from Rebecca's place, he was very depressed and dismayed, but after talking to her for a while, the depression vanished.

She had this kind of magical power that could make him feel happy.

The annoyed Sharon asked, "What's wrong with you just now? You were not in a good state of mind and even took the initiative to hug me. Did something happen?"

Stanley's eyes flickered. "Do you want to know?"

"Yes." Sharon nodded repeatedly.

"An old friend suddenly came back. Jimmy, Howard, and I were accompanying her."

"Oh, so that's why you didn't answer my call? You were accompanying other people?"

Stanley nodded, stretched out his hand to pinch her face, and his eyes became deeper.

"Also, I didn't intend to come back at first."

Sharon was a little jealous. "Are you planning to accompany your old friend?"

"Yes."

He was being truthful.

Sharon pouted and said, "Then why did you suddenly come back?"

Stanley stared straight at her. "Because of you."

When he sat next to Rebecca's bed and looked at her sleeping face, he suddenly remembered Sharon, wondering if she had slept or she would wait for him...

As he thought about it, he couldn't stay at Rebecca's place any longer, so he came back.

Because of his words, Sharon's heart beat fast and she didn't dare to look into his eyes. "B- Because you're waiting for me to explain about Shawn?"

Stanley frowned. For the first time, he found that she was so unromantic.

He glanced at her and said, "I'm afraid that you'll cheat on me, so I came back."

What a b*stard!

The feeling of excitement in Sharon's heart disappeared in an instant because of his remark.

She smiled coldly and said, "I'll cheat on you next time!"

"How dare you!"

The man who had been lying down suddenly jumped over like a cheetah and directly pressed her to the bed.

Sharon, of course, didn't dare to do that. She was simply agitating him, but she didn't expect him to react so much, so she reached out and punched him. "Let go, b*stard!"

Stanley loosened his grip and lowered his head to kiss her.

The kiss was so sudden that she didn't know what to say for a moment.

It was not until he began to pant and his body began to heat up that Sharon came back to her senses and reached out to push him. "No..."

Stanley was unable to control himself. He wanted more, so he ignored her refusal.

Sharon was anxious. "No, you're injured! You can't do it now!"

She did not forget that he was injured.

He kissed her hard. "Yes, I can..."

Sharon knew that he was in a daze at the moment, and he wouldn't listen to anything she said, but she could not let him do whatever he liked. He was injured seriously, so she couldn't let him injured himself further.

"No!"

She reached out to stop him.
