Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 534

On the way back, Ariah's phone rang. When she picked it up and looked at the caller ID, she did not answer the call. Instead, she hung up the phone.

Although Jimmy was driving, he noticed her actions and asked casually, "Who called?"

"Oh, it's no one." Then, Ariah put her phone back into her bag.

Was it really no one?

Since Jimmy was a delicate man with a keen observation ability, how could he not notice that something was fishy? Immediately, he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is it a call from the hospital?" "No, it's an unfamiliar number..."

Suddenly, there was a creaking sound, and before Ariah could say anything, Jimmy had stepped on the brakes.

Caught off guard, Ariah leaned forward. Fortunately, her seatbelt was fastened, and when she came back to her senses, the bag she had placed on her knee was taken away by Jimmy.

At that moment, Ariah's eyes widened, "What are you doing?"

However, Jimmy ignored her as he took out her phone and checked her call history. When he saw that it was really an unfamiliar phone number without a given name, he threw the phone back into her bag. Angrily, Ariah trembled and shouted, "Jimmy, that's my privacy!"

"You have no privacy in front of me."

Then, Jimmy returned the bag to her. Due to his profession, he was sensitive to certain things. For example, when Ariah reached for her phone earlier, if the call were from an unknown caller, she would definitely have immediately hung up, or she would have answered the call to ask who the other party was.

But there was something strange about her reaction. In fact, she even looked down at the number and paused for a few seconds, as if she was thinking about something, and finally, she hung up the phone. If there weren't a problem, her reaction wouldn't be like that!

It was why he took her phone and looked at it. But when he did that, he realized that it was really just an unknown number.

Could it be that he was overthinking it?

Just as he was giving it a thought, he heard some noises from the passenger seat. When Jimmy saw Ariah was trying to get off the car, he immediately locked the car door. Then, Ariah turned her head and glared at him with a pair of fiery eyes. "Unlock it!"

"What are you doing?"

"Let me out!"

Slowly, Jimmy's eyes narrowed, and he stared at her for a moment.

At that moment, Ariah was on the verge of exploding with anger. What did he mean by she had no privacy in front of him? What did he think she was?

Both of them refused to budge. When the red light turned green, the cars behind them honked angrily, but Jimmy didn't seem to hear it. At that moment, his dark eyes were still on Ariah, and he just stared at her without a word.

The car right behind them came over and knocked on the window of the car angrily. "B*stard, the light has changed..."

However, Jimmy rolled down the window, and his gaze was as cold as ice. "Get out of my sight!"

Suddenly, the man was shocked by his imposing manner and hurriedly took two steps back. Although his lips twitched as if he still wanted to yell at Jimmy, when he saw Jimmy's strong physique, he swallowed his words and gloomily returned to his car.

Meanwhile, Ariah gritted her teeth and retracted her hand from the car door. "I don't want to get out already. Hurry up and drive!"

If it went on like this, it would definitely affect the traffic.

With a sneer, Jimmy uttered, "Do you think I can't deal with you?"

Then, he started the car and left.

In fact, Ariah was so angry that her eyes turned red. How could she not have realized that this person was so unreasonable? That attitude of his that took things for granted could infuriate anyone to death. Annoyed, she turned her head and looked out of the window, as her mood suddenly became gloomy.

All this while, Jimmy had always been such an egotistical man. With that self-centered attitude, no one could refute anything that he thought was right.

How could he just checked her phone like that?

Also, who was he to say that she had no privacy in front of him?

Sometimes, the things he did could really drive her crazy!

Suddenly, Ariah felt a pain in her knee as something hit it. With a soft cry, she glared at him with her red eyes and asked, "What are you doing again?" However, Jimmy snorted and ignored her.

When Ariah looked down at the phone on her thigh, she noticed it was a black phone, and it belonged to Jimmy.

With a frown, Ariah asked, "What are you trying to tell me?"

With his eyes focused on the road, Jimmy answered, "You can look at my phone."

"Why would I want to look at your phone? Take it back!"

"Are you sure you don't want to look at it? You've never taken the initiative to ask me to check my phone. Aren't you curious about what's in my phone?" With a faint smile, Jimmy glanced at her. "Perhaps there might be some text messages of me with other women."

At that moment, Ariah's eyes widened. Just as she was about to throw his phone back, she heard what he said and stopped her movements.

"Only a few people know that we are married. People who don't know me might think I am single. Every day, there are young and beautiful girls who throw themselves into my arms. Don't you want to see what have I told those women?"

At a loss for words, Ariah stuttered, "You..."

"My phone does not have a password, so you can just look at it. Up to you whether to check my call history, my texts, or even my social media." With a deep gaze, Jimmy stared at her, "Ariah, you are not allowed to have any privacy in front of me, and I will not have any privacy in front of you either."

Meanwhile, Ariah's eyes widened, and she didn't say a single word.

"You can go ask your colleagues to see how many men could show their phones to their wives without any hesitation like me."

For a long time, Ariah remained silent. Slowly, she lowered her gaze, and she was confounded.

In fact, Jimmy was right. In today's society, there were so many temptations, and phones were the place to hide secrets. Only a few men would unconditionally reveal their true colors to others. Even a married couple would be a lot of deception and concealment between them.

"Who would want to look at your phone?" Suddenly, Ariah's voice lowered. "Do you think everyone is as curious as you?"

After that, she put the phone aside.

When Jimmy knew that Ariah's anger was gradually subsiding, Jimmy snorted.

However, five minutes later...

It was the fifth time that Ariah looked at Jimmy's phone, but in the end, she held it in.

Since she said that she would not look at it, she definitely would not look at it no matter what! Even if she was really curious, she had to endure it!

After another minute, her light-complexioned hand slowly reached out for the phone.

With a chuckle, Jimmy teased, "Didn't you proudly said that you don't want to see it?"

Embarrassed, Ariah became angry and shouted, "Shut up!"

"Such a hypocrite."

That comment left Ariah tongue-tied.

"You're the only one who would put on such an act. You're obviously curious, but you still acted like you don't care."

Suddenly, Ariah roared back, "You're the one who said I could look at it!"

"So, what do you think?" Lazily, Jimmy asked, "Did you find any evidence of me cheating on you?"

This time, Ariah didn't say anything as she silently put the phone aside.

It was because she saw it all, and she even saw that he had many texts from random numbers of other women who expressed their love for him.

However, Jimmy only replied, "I'm sorry. I'm already married, and I don't plan on having an affair for the time being."

Some women had to back off when they saw his reply.

As for some bold women, they continued to tease him and even sent extremely seductive photos to him as they asked whether he was interested in being friends with them.

Then, Jimmy replied, "My wife and I are living a happy life. My wife has the face of an angel and the figure of a devil, so I would never get tired of her for my whole life. I would never be interested in the temptations of the outside world, especially women like you."

When those women who admired him saw him say such things, they were so pissed that they turned their back on him and started to scold him in the end.

Most importantly, these conversations only happened a few months ago when they had their worst arguments.

At that moment, Ariah pursed her lips and remained silent. If it were another man who encountered a woman who threw herself at him, would he be able to keep his hands off her?

Although she couldn't be sure about others, she knew Jimmy was able to do so.

The thing was, she herself even had the thought of devoting herself to another relationship and forget about Jimmy when she quarreled with him back then.

Now that Ariah thought about it, her back was covered in cold sweat. If she really did that, her relationship with Jimmy in this life would probably really be doomed.
