Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 554

Pausing, Ariah turned around and bit her lips at him. "What do you mean?"

"Nothing. I just wanna tell you that the driver probably wouldn't listen to you."

"What..."

"Do you think he would dare to send you back if I say no?"

"Jimmy, you're crazy!"

Jimmy's smile was cold. "Are you only realizing it now? Tsk, I'm telling you. If you anger me, you won't end well."

If she was clever, she should take the initiative to confess and tell him everything, instead of waiting for him to get angry and question her.

Ariah stood rooted to where she was and looked at him in a daze as sadness flashed across her face. Gradually, her eyes turned red, but she held back her tears and did not let them fall.

She had never shown her weakness in front of men.

Even if she felt extremely aggrieved right now, she just wouldn't show it.

Meanwhile, Jimmy sat in the car and looked at Ariah who stood in the cold wind. Her body was so thin that it seemed like she could collapse. The wind lifted her clothes and her face was pale from the coldness.

D*mn it!

He couldn't stand the fight anymore.

Just seeing her standing there and staring at him with a pair of red eyes, he could feel that his heart ached for her.

Soon, he unlocked the door, and said to Ariah, "Get in!"

But just as Ariah was about to get in the car, she suddenly fainted.

"Ariah!"

Jimmy's face changed and he quickly got out of the car to help her up. His eyes were full of anxiety.

He was totally different from the distant man he was a moment ago.

Grabbing his arm, Ariah managed to stand up. However, her lips were bloodless, and she massaged her belly. "Um... I seem to get my period now." For a moment, Jimmy went silent.

His face froze.

On the other hand, Ariah's pale face flushed as she was a little embarrassed. "Just now, I had a period cramp, so I couldn't stand straight."

She didn't mean to scare him.

With a dark face, Jimmy helped her into the car. Suppressing his emotions, he said hoarsely, "Can you hold on until we get home?"

Thinking that her underwear must be stained with blood now anyway, she nodded. "Okay."

Jimmy got back into the car and they left. On the way home, he didn't say a word. He just looked straight ahead and drove.

There were a few times Ariah wanted to say something. However, when she saw his cold face, she swallowed her words.

Arriving home, Ariah changed her clothes immediately and cleaned herself up.

When she came out of the bathroom, she saw Jimmy smoking on the balcony. As the cold breeze blew in from the balcony, Ariah started to shiver. Just then, Jimmy turned around and saw her. He put out the cig and walked in, closing the door while staring at her lightly.

Under his indifferent gaze, Ariah licked her lips and said, "Do you want to take a hot bath?"

Jimmy's face turned gloomy instantly, and he continued to gaze at her.

Was she still going to play dumb with him?

Ariah felt uncomfortable at his stare.

'Are you not gonna talk about it at all?" Jimmy asked calmly as he walked toward her step by step.

For some reason, Ariah was a little frightened by his look even though he did not say anything harsh. Subconsciously, she took a step back as he approached her.

"D-don't come over here."

Ariah didn't know why she said that. She just felt that Jimmy looked very dangerous right now. He was like a lion that was ready to prey.

"Where else do you want to retreat to?" Jimmy's tall and strong body pressed over and enveloped her.

Quickly, Ariah said, "Jimmy, listen to me..."

"I'm afraid you have no more chance." Jimmy interrupted her. His gaze was gloomy. "I gave you a chance before when we were back at my parents' house, but you didn't take it."

"No, I did explain, but you didn't believe me. Nothing happened between Kobi and me. He was just removing the dirt from my hair..." "Then what about this photo? How are you gonna explain this?" "What..." Before she could finish her sentence, Jimmy had shown her the photo, and Ariah was choked speechless.

She widened her eyes, looked at the man and woman in the photo, and recognized instantly that it was Kobi and her.

This photo must be taken at the mall yesterday.

But how could he have the photo?

Immediately, Ariah was a little flurried. Only then did she understand why Jimmy was so angry this whole time. "Jimmy... I can explain it."

But Jimmy just laughed sarcastically. "So you wanna explain this now that I know the truth?"

"Listen, I went to the same college as Kobi back when I was studying abroad. But back then, he had already graduated. He was working as my mentor's assistant. I only saw him for two years, but in the first year, we hardly spoke. We only started to talk in the second year. And at that time, I thought that I liked him, so I began to pursue him. However, he didn't like me at all and even rejected me."

Regardless of whether he wanted to hear it or not, Ariah spilled out everything quickly.

"Later, I learned that the man I liked was not him, so I gave up pursuing him. That year, I happened to graduate as well, so I came back to Estar. And from then on, we didn't contact anymore." "On the second year I return from abroad, I married you. I never contacted Kobi again until he recently came back and we met again."

Upon explaining that much, Ariah gasped a little. Then, she stared at Jimmy and continued, "That's everything between Kobi and me." She had told him everything without holding back.

Of course, she should have told him earlier, but she did not know how to start.

It was reasonable that he got furious when he had to learn about it this way.

Meanwhile, Jimmy still looked quite indifferent. "Do you still remember what you had once said to me?"

Ariah was stunned.

"You said that as a married couple, we gotta be open with each other and that there's no need to continue our relationship if we couldn't even do that." Ariah remembered that she had said that when Jimmy refused to tell her what had happened in the past...

But now, Jimmy returned these words to her.

She knew that he was mocking her.

After Jimmy finished speaking, he turned around and left. Quickly, Ariah grabbed his arm. "Wait!" She asked him to stay, but he did not listen. He just got rid of her grip and went straight out of the door. Seeing that, Ariah stood motionless for a long while before she returned to her bedroom in a daze.
