Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 438

"I'm going to die together with him!" Sharon squeezed out these words through her clenched teeth.

At the moment, not only Stanley, but all the men present had a change in their expressions, and even more so Isai. He shifted his deranged eyes at Sharon. "Wh-what did you say?"

Seeing his terrified look, Sharon felt her suppressed anger finally released; she felt a sense of revenge. "Isai, so you are afraid of death?"

She thought that this crazy man was not a tad bit afraid of death.

Isai's face was ashen as he stood behind her and pointed his gun at her. The position he was standing at was extremely advantageous to him. There was the log cabin behind him a dead end, and in front of him stood Sharon. With her so close to him, no matter how angry Stanley was, he wouldn't be able to do anything to him for the time being.

But if this stalemate continued, it wouldn't be of any benefit to him at all.

As he thought of this, a hint of malice flashed across Isai's face. "If you don't want her to die, then all of you should leave!" He pointed the gun to the back of Sharon's head and looked at Stanley with bloodthirsty eyes, "Truly my good son. Still able to retaliate against me even at the brink of death! Very well!"

With the chilling muzzle pointed at the back of her head, Sharon could hear Isai's gloomy voice without even looking back.

Stiffening his body, Stanley stood still.

With a click, Isai turned on his gun safety.

Sharon's eyes were red as her gaze fixed on her husband for a moment. "Stanley, take Brother King and the rest and leave this place. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine..."

Worst case scenario, she would die.

This time, she would never let Isai go. She had to seize such a good opportunity no matter what.

Even with a bomb in her own hands, she would send Isai to hell.

Stanley had once told her that he would personally kill Isai to give her and the children a safe future. Now, she wanted to tell him that she could do the same by sacrificing herself to create a bright future for him and the children.

Sniffing her nose, Sharon tried to hold back her tears. She looked deeply at her beloved husband and uttered word by word, "I feel assured with the kids in your hands. I believe with you taking care of them, they'd live a good life. Stanley, since you've done so much for me, let me do this one thing for you."

If Isai didn't die, they would never have a day of peace.

Since she was going to die this time, she would drag Isai down with her.

"Sharon, don't move!" Stanley's trembling voice rang out. "Stand still, and don't move. Don't do anything silly. I can save you!"

How was he going to save her? It's impossible... Sharon knew he was only saying these to comfort himself.

Isai was pointing a gun behind her, whereas she was holding a bomb in her hands.

"Brother King!" Stanley suddenly turned around. "Can this bomb be defused?"

Jackson had been watching from a distance, looking for a chance to kill Isai with one shot. However, Isai was hiding at a good angle. Jackson couldn't get a good shooting point, and he was stumped for a while.

"I can't tell from such a long distance, but to tell you the truth, most pressure-sensitive bombs have caused numerous lives..." Jackson's face darkened. "I'm looking for an opportunity to shoot at Isai, but it's no easy to do so from this angle. He's vigilant and has been keeping an eye on us. If we're not careful, I'm afraid that we'll trigger the bomb in Sharon's hands."

With that, Jackson pursed his lips and then suggested, "Let's wait and see. Let's stabilize the situation first."

Stanley's gaze fell on Isai again. "What do you need me to do in order for you to let her go?"

Before Isai could speak, Sharon couldn't help but yell out loud, "Stanley, don't bargain with him!"

Isai shouldn't be given any more chances. If he managed to survive this time, he would definitely harm the children. But Sharon wasn't going to let anything of this sort happen.

Even if it meant that she had to sacrifice herself.

With a flash of determination in her eyes, Sharon took one last look at Stanley, her eyes containing reluctance and love. Stanley seemed to have seen something, and his expression changed drastically. He took large strides towards her.

But there was someone who moved even faster than him.

It was Shawn, who had been standing by the side all this while and did not speak.

"Shawn, what are you doing!" Isai stared in astonishment and fury as Shawn charged forward. In a fit of anger, he fired a shot at Shawn. The sound of "bang" startled the birds in the trees. Sharon shouted at Isai, "No!"

Shawn's thigh was hit, and his blood quickly gushed out.

Isai stepped backward into the log cabin without turning a hair. In a low voice, he taunted, "Don't come over here. This is a warning!"

However, Shawn did not seem to feel any pain and instead slowly got up and walked towards Sharon, all while his thigh was still bleeding. Isai was both shocked and furious. He did not understand what this madman was up to.

On the other hand, Jackson gestured to his men behind him to make a move, and they slowly surrounded the log cabin... Coming up to Sharon, Shawn cracked a smile. "Isai kidnapped you once, and I said I would avenge you. Do you remember?" Sharon looked at him in stupefaction. What was he trying to do?

"The thing I regret the most in my life is to hit Dad in the hospital four years ago."

When he first arrived in town, Shawn was adopted by Sharon's father. Growing up, Shawn had been addressing him as 'Daddy'.

Apart from his own mother, Sharon's father was the one who treated him the best. Yet, he had done such a rude thing to him! It would not even be enough for Shawn to die a thousand times to pay for laying his hands on Sharon's father.

Shawn smiled sorrowfully. His eyes were full of pain and self-blame, as well as regret. "I know you will never forgive me. It doesn't matter. Don't forgive me. Perhaps I could stay in your heart a little longer..." "Sharon, live on..."

Sharon stared blankly at him. She couldn't help but teared up. Just what was he trying to do...

Meanwhile, Isai seemed to have anticipated what Shawn's plan was, but he couldn't believe it. He shouted at Shawn, calling him crazy before raising his gun and pointing it at Shawn.

At the same time...

Sharon's hands felt empty as the bomb was taken from her. Before she knew it, Shawn had forcefully shoved her away after whispering in her ear, "I love you, Sharon."

Bang!

Her body fell hard on the ground, and what came next was a feeling of lightheadedness. Instantly, noises in the background were amplified in her ears, and she was seeing stars. The bomb exploded right next to her within close range. She was wounded by the blast wind and was covered in blood. All of a sudden, she couldn't hear anything as if she went deaf. A pair of strong arms tightly clasped her body, and Sharon was quickly taken away from the scene.

It was so painful.

There was pain all over her body, as well as in her heart, which seemed to have a part of it sliced up.

Sharon's vision was getting blurrier and blurrier. Before completely passing out, she witnessed the log cabin being blasted up, and the spot where Shawn was standing had become a large pit. In a daze, Sharon couldn't feel a single thing as if devoid of all senses. She felt herself floating in the sea and then sinking. Eventually, she was dragged out of the water by someone forcefully.
