Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 435

After saying that, Isai's eyes showed his crazy ambition and desire. The mere thought of those made him excited all over, so much so that his facial muscles started twitching. Stanley frowned as he looked at him, astonishment flashing across his face. In the end, he shook his head, "You're a madman!"

He couldn't believe that Isai actually thought of this and wanted to drag him into the mire! Was it because he had no other way out, or was it because he was overconfident that Stanley would stand on his side? "Aren't you tempted?" Isai slightly leaned over, his turbid eyes blazing with excitement. "It's a position that all men would covet. I believe you too? Now there's such an opportunity in front of you, don't you want to seize it?"

"Stanley, I'll not hold grudges against you for what happened in the past, and I don't blame you for what you did to me this time. But the premise is that you have to work for me and help me clear my reputation. and let me go back to the country to help you. As a father and son team working together, we will definitely be unstoppable!"

The more Isai spoke, the more excited he became. In the end, his face turned red, as if he had already seen a bright future. "As long as you stand on my side, I will immediately let you go. I'll let Sharon go too, and I'll love my grandchildren as well."

Stanley's eyes flickered. "As long as I'm your puppet, you'll let me go?"

"How could you say 'puppet'? We're father and son." Although Isai spoke like this, his heart was full of irony. A 'puppet' sounded pleasing to the ear. In his eyes, Stanley was nothing more than a chess piece. As long as he returned to Beachmarsh City to regain his power, he would then slowly settle the accounts between him and Stanley.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he couldn't ignore one fact — the only person capable of clearing his name now was his son, who saw him as an enemy!

"What if I don't agree?" Stanley asked again.

"Then you'll die today, along with Sharon. She won't leave this country alive." Isai looked at him expressionlessly. "You're my son and a smart person. You should understand me more. You know how I always keep my words."

Stanley stared at him for a few seconds. After a long while, he withdrew his gaze and nodded his head as if he had compromised, "Give me some time, let me think about it."

Isai said with a snicker, "Are you trying to stall for time?"

Stanley's expression froze.

"Sure enough, my guess is right. Buying time is useless. Who do you think can save you? Sharon? Or Shawn? Sharon is a woman. Any man here can kill her. As for Shawn, although he is a little powerful, he is not strong enough. Also, he's offended General Kunba who now wants to kill him. Two sides are after him. Once he shows himself here, he'll be dead. So tell me, who are you expecting to save you?" Expressionlessly, Stanley looked at him. "So I only have one path to choose, and that is to agree to your request, right?"

"That's right."

"Aren't you afraid that if I pretend to promise you now, I'll not keep to my word after we return?"

"You don't have to worry about this. I have my own ways to have you always be at my disposal as long as you promise to help me."

"Oh, yeah? How would you have me always be at your disposal?"

Isai looked at him with a smile and slowly spat out two syllables, "Sharon."

Instantly, Stanley's expression changed. "What did you do to her?"

"I sent someone to seize her. Don't worry. I won't hurt her, at least not until you work for me. Before then, I can guarantee her safety."

Sharon had always been Stanley's weakness. As long as Isai threatened him with Sharon, things would be much easier.

Hearing this, Stanley sneered, "Do you think I'll believe you? Unless you bring her out to see me, otherwise it's empty talk. I'm not that stupid to believe you!"

Isai stared at him for a few seconds. His slightly drooping eyelids covered the sharpness in his eyes. "Okay, you're smart. Indeed, I haven't caught Sharon yet, but it won't take long. You can rest assured that I will bring her to see you before sunset. At that time, it is also the time for you to make a decision."

Finishing his words, Isai turned around and left.

Stanley sat in his original spot without moving, but he was calculating the time in his heart. The person who he sent news to should have received it by now and should be coming over soon. Right now, his odd of victory was to wait for him to arrive...

Closing his eyes and covering up the cold light that flashed across his eyes, Stanley silently sneered... Isai's words reverberated through the air. It was still not certain who would die today!

Isai stepped out of the wooden log cabin and summoned a subordinate. In a cold voice, he asked, "Is there still no news?"

"No, Shawn and his gang know how to hide. We've searched in several different directions, but we've not found anyone."

Standing under the roof with his hands behind his back, Isai stared ahead with gloomy eyes. Stanley was the only one who could pull him out of the mess now. If he wanted to rebuild his legacy, he had to rely on this guy his own son-whom he had been trying to get rid of all this while.

However, Stanley wasn't an ordinary person. He had a strong will as well as aggressive means. He was a force to be reckoned with. However, it would be different with Sharon around. Even when Stanley was armored, he would take off the armor without hesitation upon seeing Sharon in danger, and thus revealing his weak spot.

The only way to control him was using the woman he loved.

And this was the only chance Isai had. If he missed it, all his previous plans would have gone to waste!

Therefore, no matter what, he had to catch Sharon.

"We must find them!" Isai gave an order coldly. "Send more people after them. They must be around still. Capture them alive no matter what!"

"Yes, sir."

Meanwhile, Shawn was waiting, waiting for the sky to turn dark. Only in this way could he have the opportunity to launch a surprise attack and rescue those in the log cabin.

There were too many enemies - dozens of fully-armed people. Even if they counted themselves, there were only three of them. He would be at a disadvantage if he confronted them head-on.

Isai was also waiting, but after a long wait, he only saw a man suddenly run out of the bushes in a hurry with a panicked look, as if he had encountered something. Isai then sent another group of people into the woods. An hour passed, and the group of people did not come back. Isai signaled to contact them, but they seemed to disappear into thin air without leaving any message.

This was a bit odd!

Isai looked worried and sent a few more people over. Half an hour later, one of them ran out of the woods with wounds all over his body. Panting, he said in a panic, "There's a... there's a ghost..." "What bullsh*t!"

Isai gave the man a hard kick and knocked him to the ground. Then, he took his gun and went into the jungle himself.

What ghost? How could there be ghosts under broad daylight? Even if there were ghosts, the ghosts would be the ones afraid of him!

What a bunch of useless people who couldn't even find a woman!
