Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 516

Never did Sharon expect that her son would stand up to protect her, which touched her greatly.

The other few women also did not expect that a child would stand out and scold them. One of them was even shocked by the kid's gaze and stammered, "Kid, we are teaching your mother the principles of life!" "Why does my mom need you to teach her how to be a good person? Mind your own business!"

The woman's face suddenly became extremely dark.

"Pft..."

Suddenly, someone laughed out loud.

Utterly exasperated, the woman shouted, "Kid, what are you talking about?"

Meanwhile, Seamus wrapped his arms around his shoulders and said, "If the cap fits, wear it."

"You... you..."

At that moment, the commotion they caused finally caught the attention of the principal, and his face was gloomy because he didn't expect that the parents would actually quarrel in front of so many leaders. They were all important leaders. How could they be so senseless?

When the principal turned to look at Stanley, who was on the podium, he felt extremely embarrassed. Immediately, he went over and apologized, "Mr. Jones, I'm so sorry. I don't know what's going on with those parents. It's too noisy here. Why don't you go to the office and rest for the time being while I'll take care of this matter?"

However, before the principal could finish his words, Stanley strode forward and headed straight toward the parents.

Stunned for a moment, the principal immediately trailed along.

"What's going on?"

With a frown, Stanley walked over.

The moment the angry woman saw Stanley walked over, her face turned red, and her arrogance instantly disappeared as she softened her voice and said, "Mr. Jones, I'm sorry to bother you, but this family is too much. Not only did she not look after her child, but she even let her child disrespect the adult and insult the adult..."

"Was I asking you?" Straightforwardly, Stanley interrupted and glanced at her coldly.

Taken aback, the woman asked, "W-What?"

Who would he be asking if it wasn't her?

Then, Stanley's gaze fell on Sharon, "What happened? Did she bully you?"

However, Sharon glanced at him and said nothing.

Since he didn't want to answer her call earlier, why was he pretending to be a good person right now?

When Stanley saw her expression, he knew that Sharon's anger had yet to dissipate.

After that, he sighed and squatted down in front of Seamus, "Seamus, your mother doesn't want to talk to me. So tell me, what happened?"

As soon as he finished, the atmosphere in the already quiet classroom instantly became strange.

Everyone's expression changed, especially the few women who were gossiping about Sharon earlier. Their eyes widened in disbelief. Did they mishear? Was Stanley addressing the child as his son? They must had misheard it.

It was definitely a mistake!

Meanwhile, Stanley, who had learned about what happened from Seamus, nodded lightly and stood up as he said to the woman, "Do you want to settle this in private or public?"

Stupefied, the woman asked, "What... do you mean?" "If you want to settle this in private, apologize to my wife and my child. Other than that, you would also have to take the initiative to let your children drop out of this school."

Terrified, the woman's face turned pale. The arrogance she had earlier was gone, and she asked timidly, "Why... How can you say that? We didn't even say anything..."

Then, Stanley narrowed his eyes and continued, "If you don't want to settle this in private, then I will call the police now and let the police handle this matter. If I was not mistaken, not only did you attack my wife, but you also insulted my child. With that, you had already constituted an insult and slander crime, and a lawsuit is inevitable. So, how would you like to settle this?"

A... lawsuit?

At that moment, the young woman was so appalled that her face turned ghastly pale as she shivered and said, "I... I wasn't the only one who insulted them. They... they did it too!" Immediately, she pointed at the other women who were gossiping along with her just now.

"Who are you pointing fingers at? We didn't insult you! We don't even know you!" Those women immediately cut her off and acted as if they didn't know her.

Angrily, the young woman stomped her foot, "You guys..." Finally, she took a deep breath and said reluctantly, "I will settle it in private."

After that, Stanley turned his body sideways with a cold expression.

Then, the young woman walked up to Sharon, apologized to her, and then to the two children. "It's my fault. I shouldn't have said that to you. Please forgive me this time." However, Sharon looked away and answered, "Let's forget about it. I don't want to make a big deal out of it."

Immediately, the woman thanked her, but just as she was about to head back to her seat, Stanley uttered nonchalantly, "The principal and the parents, please leave now."

The parents that Stanley was talking about were the few parents who had once slandered Sharon. However, the expression of those parents suddenly changed, and they made a fuss out of it because they were unwilling to leave. In the end, the school authorities had to ask the security guards to take them out.

Just like that, the small storm subsided.

A moment later, Stanley held his daughter and sat down on the chair as he said to the teacher and the principal, who were terrified, "The parentteacher conference hasn't started yet, right? Don't worry about it. I'll sit here with my wife and my children, and the teachers may continue with the conference."

Immediately, the principal wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded repeatedly. "Mr. Jones, please have a seat. The parent-teacher conference will soon come to an end."

In the next half hour, the parent-teacher conference had almost become Sharon's special performance party. The eyes of the other parents had been fixed on her intentionally or unintentionally, and it made Sharon feel uneasy, but she couldn't ignore them.

As soon as the parent-teacher conference ended, the head of the school came to have a small talk with Stanley again, while the other parents looked at Sharon as if she was a rare creature. Hastily, Sharon found an excuse to run to the washroom.

It wasn't until she sat on the toilet that she let out a sigh of relief. Then, she silently scolded Stanley in her heart for causing her so much trouble. How was she supposed to come to school in the future? If the incident that happened today got out, those who didn't like her might even say something about her behind her back.

After Sharon stayed in the bathroom for a while, she thought it was almost time, so she decided to leave.

However, Sharon suddenly heard someone outside said, "I really didn't see it coming. The mother of the twins had always been quiet. I didn't expect that she had such a powerful background. Turns out she wasn't easy to be picked on. It was just that she knew how to keep a low profile."

"That's right. The more wealthy a person is, the more low profile they are. And the more high status the person is, the more disdainful they will be."

"It's just a pity how her husband is the president of a company, but his hair is white, and it makes him looks like an old man."

"Geez, I don't know what strange disease he has. I heard that rich people like to fool around, so he must have been infected with some strange diseases which caused his hair to turn white."

"Alright, let's not talk too much about them. Let's go."

Meanwhile, Sharon sat on the toilet and silently pursed her lips because Stanley's hair was white because of her, but he didn't show any signs of getting better.

Although he himself didn't care, Sharon still felt

bad for him.

After Sharon thought about it alone for a long time, she once again opened the door and went out. However, as soon as she went out, she met with the embrace of Stanley, who was standing outside the door. It was a familiar aura, and it was full of warmth.

Startled, Sharon was asked, "Stanley, this is ladies' room. What are you doing here?"

Meanwhile, he placed his arm around her waist and pressed her against the door with his burning breath blown against her earlobe. "Honey, I know I was wrong..."
