Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 505

However, Anthony was taken aback by Howard's enthusiasm. In the end, Howard sighed and said with a worried look, "If you're so shy, you would be destined to be a bachelor!"

After that, Howard turned to meet Stanley, who happened to come out of the study. "Stanley, as the boss, you can't only care about yourself. You should also pay attention to your employees' romance life!" "What's wrong with Jimmy?" Meanwhile, Stanley didn't bother to listen to him and kicked him, "He hasn't said a word since he entered. Besides, why did he suddenly want to drink?"

When Howard heard Stanley's question, he pursed his lips. "I'm guessing it was Ariah who did it."

With a frown, Stanley came to the sofa and sat down as he said, "You must have some problems that you can't figure out. That's why you came here. Howard and I rarely have time, except for today, so what do you want to say? Tell us."

Immediately, Howard nodded with a serious face. "Yes, Stanley is right."

However, Jimmy glanced at him and said, "You're just interested in the gossip, aren't you?"

Those words left Howard tongue-tied.

"Does he even have to look at Howard with a gaze that was burning like torches?"

After taking a sip of wine, Jimmy said slowly, "I want to restore my marriage with Ariah..."

"That's a good thing!" Excitedly, Howard slapped his thigh. "Then, why are you pulling a long face?"

"But she doesn't want to."

Stunned, Howard asked, "Why doesn't she want to restore the marriage?"

"She said that I was fooling around with her because I was the one who told her to divorce, and I also told her to get restore the marriage. This makes her feel that I don't value our marriage at all." At that moment, Jimmy became more and more agitated as he spoke. "What on earth goes on in a woman's mind? If I was fooling around with her, would I want to restore the marriage?"

Hadn't she seen men tampered with women before? Was there anyone like him who would be in a hurry to ask for a marriage restoration if they were just fooling around? The thought of it made Jimmy's heart filled with anger.

After a moment, Howard stroked his chin and said, "Ariah is right. You just divorced her two days ago, and today you said you want to get married again. Everyone would think that you are making fun of her. But, Jimmy, since you want to restore the marriage, you should at least put in some effort. Okay, let's not talk about anything else for now, but I would like to know, have you at least prepared a huge shiny diamond ring that would make others go blind?"

After Jimmy paused for a moment, he stuttered, "I need... a wedding ring?"

"Holy sh*t. Since you want to get married again, don't you have to prepare something? Back then, when you married Ariah, didn't you buy a ring?"

"I did, but it was all prepared by my father, and I didn't have to worry about it." Suddenly, Jimmy felt a little guilty. Back then, when he got married, he did not care about everything that happened. It was just that on the day of the wedding, he, as the groom, attended the wedding. Other than that, he did not know anything else.

At a loss for words, Howard asked, "Then how did you tell her that you want to restore the marriage this time?"

"What else can I say? I just told her that I want to restore the marriage."

"Where did you say that?"

"In the car." "There's wasn't any special ceremony?"

Dumbfounded, Jimmy asked, "Why would I need a ceremony?"

When Howard heard that, he shook his head repeatedly. "I see the reason Ariah doesn't want to restore the marriage. You're asking for her to restore the marriage as if it was just a simple meal. If that was the case, trust me, not a single woman would agree to it."

Instantly, Jimmy sat up straight and said, "Howard, if you have any good ideas, go ahead and tell me. When I succeed, I will prepare a big gift for you."

"Ahem." Then, Howard cleared his throat and answered, "Since you are sincerely begging me, I can't refuse..."

"Cut the cr*p. Tell me now!"

"Is this the attitude to ask for help?"

"Dr. Perkins is a kind-hearted person, so of course, he won't bother about these. Forgive me, as I was too anxious to get my wife back. I hope you don't take it to heart." Without a choice, Jimmy gritted his teeth and said.

"That's more like it!"

However, Howard didn't dare to act any more presumptuously because if Jimmy really did go berserk, it would be quite terrifying.

"Well, I've told you earlier. First of all, you have to prepare a shiny diamond ring because no woman would dislike diamond rings. The bigger the diamond that you can afford, the better it would be. In fact, the location is also very important, so you got to make it as romantic as possible. Lastly, you need to get a bouquet. Then, as you hold the ring, you kneel in front of her and propose to her affectionately... If you've done all these, but the woman is still not moved to cry as she agrees, then I'll go by your first name!"

With a face full of suspicion, Jimmy asked, "Are you sure that's okay? Besides, you're talking about the marriage proposal. Do I even need such a grand ceremony to restore my marriage?"

When Howard heard Jimmy's question, his heart wrenched, "How did you guys with such low EQ even got married? Did you guys save the earth in your last life? I'm a man with such a great IQ and EQ, but I'm still single! Officer Hudson, let alone restoration of marriage, nowadays, even if you want to get a divorce, it would be a big deal. Don't you need to put in some effort to put on a show if you want your wife back? Tell me honestly, Jimmy, do you not have the money to buy a diamond ring, that's why you're trying to find ways to not do it? You can tell me if you don't have money, and I will lend it to you!" "F*ck off!" Immediately, Jimmy gave him a kick.

Meanwhile, Stanley, who had remained silent all this while, opened his mouth and said, "Jimmy's net worth is capable of handling that amount."

Shocked, Howard asked in disbelief, "How can he, a poor civil servant, have tens of billions? Stanley, do you think I'm a fool?"

"At the beginning, when the Jones Group was just established, I needed resources and channels, as well as the supply of goods. Since Jimmy has some connections, he helped me. In order to repay him, I let him join the shares of the Jones Group. There's no need for me to tell you the current market value of the Jones Group, right? Since you already know about that, you would also know that Jimmy's identity has naturally gotten higher."

Filled with shock, Howard's lips quivered, and he didn't know what to say for a long time.

After a long while, he placed his hand on his chest and said, "Stanley, is it too late for me to become a shareholder now?"

"What do you think?" With a faint smile, Stanley looked at him.

Directly, Howard fell to the ground and couldn't get up because he bitterly hated himself for not joining the shares shamelessly. Even if it was 1% of the shares, it was enough for him to live a few lifetimes without having to work!

At that moment, Stanley's phone suddenly rang. When he took it out, he saw that it was a text from Sharon.

"Then children and I won't be going back tonight. You don't have to come to pick us up."

As Stanley narrowed his eyes, he put away his phone and stood up as he said, "Okay, it's getting late. All of you should go back."

However, Howard didn't want to move. "Sharon hasn't returned yet. Let's drink a little more."

"Don't make me repeat what I said." With a cold face, Stanley ordered.

When Howard heard his words, he didn't dare to stay any longer, and he immediately flurried away.

Since Jimmy drank wine and was not in the right state to drive, Stanley decided to send him home, but halfway there, Jimmy felt something was wrong. "This is the route to Ariah's apartment, right? Why did you bring me here?"

"Because my wife plans to spend the night at your wife's home. How could I allow such a thing to happen?" Indifferently, Stanley said, "Obviously, I'm sending you over so that you can meet Ariah so that Sharon would be too embarrassed to stay."

That idea of Stanley left Jimmy dumbstruck.

Then, he glared at Stanley with an expression that said, "You're really a scheming b*stard."

No one's thoughts could be a match to Stanley's, and Jimmy was really impressed!
