Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) -
Chapter 410
Seeing Stanley walked out, Hazel knew that he wanted to leave, but she still couldn't help but ask him to stay, "Don't you want to stay?"
"No, I'll go back." Stanley stood on the porch to change his shoes. "Take your rest, it's getting late."
"Aye, alright."
Looking at the man's straight back and his hair that turned white overnight, Hazel couldn't help sighing, and even her eyes turned red. Finally, she wiped her eyes and went back to her room.
Stanley drove back alone. After returning home to take a shower, he didn't feel sleepy at all, probably because he had a short nap sleeping beside Seamus. Taking out the gift he bought for Sharon earlier during the day, he slumped into the sofa and slowly looked at it.
She wondered what the necklace would look like when she wore it around her neck.
Her collarbone was so beautiful, it would probably look very nice.
He thought about it again. It dawned upon him that he had never given anything to Sharon all these years, and she had never asked for anything from him.
Finally, he put the gift away and took out his mobile phone to call Ryan. There was a quick answer from the other end. "Hello?"
"Where are you now?"
Without hesitance, he went straight to the point.
"The border." Ryan stood in the night and said truthfully, "From the information that I've gathered from Beachmarsh City's gas stations, I found Shawn driving all the way south. If my guess is right, he couldn't stay in the country. He is probably getting out of the country."
Stanley had long guessed this. He had also sent people over a few countries to search for him. However, there were simply too many people in this world. Searching for two persons, was undoubtedly like finding a needle in a haystack.
"Don't worry. I am the one who lost her. I'll definitely get her back." Ryan's voice was a bit heavy. "I'll keep to my words."
Ever since the day Sharon disappeared, Ryan had blamed himself for not looking out for her. That was why he took the initiative to look for Sharon with Stanley. He was the only one that Stanley trusted; Stanley trusted his abilities, which was why he had given this important mission to him.
Every day, he would report the news that he had received. Stanley knew that living out in the open was challenging. He could not say anything else, but only 'thank you.' "That's what I should do." Ryan pursed his lips. After saying these words, he hung up the phone.
Stanley was lying on the sofa, staring at the ceiling in the quiet night. The only sound that could be heard was the ticking of the alarm clock in the corner. He was motionless, and even his breathing was shallow, as if he wasn't breathing at all.
After an indeterminable amount of time, Stanley's vision gradually blurred as he slowly closed his eyes.
Once again, he dreamt of Sharon. He saw Sharon lying in a pool of blood. Because of the pain, she had been shedding tears, and she had been calling his name, saying that she wanted him to save her as soon as possible...
It was like Stanley was pressed down by a ghost, causing him to be unable to move at all. He wanted to hug her in his arms and bring her away from that place, but there was nothing he could do about it. Alas, he woke up from his dream in a cold sweat. The sofa was wet despite it being a cold day. He gasped heavily a few times, and then got up and went to the bathroom.
Every day, he would experience different horrible dreams.
Sometimes, he even thought that whatever was happening in his dreams, were in reality happening to Sharon too, in which he was in danger...
It was impossible, he immediately brushed off his thoughts. Shawn could not hurt Sharon, so she would definitely be fine.
Kinsey was a woman in her thirties. When she was 20, she followed Isai. There were many women by his side. However, Kinsey was the woman who stayed by his side the longest.
So when she received Stanley's call, she was definitely surprised. However, when she heard that Stanley wanted to see her, she was absolutely shocked.
Why did he want to meet a woman who was his father's mistress?
With much apprehension and hesitation, Kinsey came to the teahouse to see Stanley.
"Miss Lambert, have a seat." Stanley pointed at the chair opposite her. "What would you like to drink? Tea or juice?"
Kinsey didn't know what he wanted to do. She had no idea, so she casually answered, "Tea, I'm not picky."
Stanley nodded and personally poured her a cup of tea. After taking a sip he said, "I'm sure Miss Lambert, you're very curious as to why I've brought you here." "Yes, Mr. Stanley."
"Don't you want to ask?"
"You... Since you're the one who looked for me, I'm sure you'll definitely say it even if I don't ask."
For this woman to be able to stay by Isai's side for so many years, she was indeed able to maintain her composure.
"Then I won't be ambiguous with you. Miss Lambert, do you know about the news that Isai was taken away by the spy?" This incident had been the talk of the town in Beachmarsh City for a week. How could Kinsey not know about it? "The news was reported. I know a little about it." "What do you think, Miss Lambert?"
"Me?"
"Yes." Stanley looked straight at her. "Isai has fallen. You are the closest woman to him. Supposedly, you would have been taken away too. Do you know why you are still safe and sound now?" Kinsey's heart kept pounding. "Why... why?"
"Because I spoke for you, so you are fine."
Kinsey opened her eyes wide. "Why are you helping me?"
Then she couldn't help saying, "Isai is still your father after all. You personally framed him. How... How can you do this?"
Suddenly, Stanley broke into laughter. "Just now, I thought you were pretty smart. Why are you asking such a stupid question now?"
Kinsey's face was burning.
Yes, the father and son had never been on good terms. They had no feelings for each other. She vaguely knew some of these things. But she didn't expect that their relationship would become so bad. It was terrible that they didn't care about their family at all.
"So then why on earth did you want me to meet me this time?" "I want to ask for a favor."
"What... What's the matter?"
"Help me find evidence."
Kinsey had a gut feeling that he might say something bad later. Before she turned him down, she heard Stanley say slowly, "Isai has evidence of himself betraying his country. It may be a U-disk, or some pape documents. I want you to help me find those things, and then give them to me."
"You're crazy!" Kinsey rejected him without thinking. "How would I be able to find something that even you can't find?" Besides, Isai would definitely keep these things in a particularly secretive way. It was impossible for her to find them.
"Miss Lambert, please be patient." Stanley gestured for her to sit down. "Do you agree to my request?"
"I don't agree! Isai has been taken away. Where do you want me to find these pieces of evidence?"
"I'll be releasing him."
"Wh-what?"
"When the time comes, you just need to help me pay attention to where he stores the most important things. I will then get them myself, and he won't suspect you."
