Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 470

Ariah didn't know what was wrong with this man who suddenly kissed her. Even a maniac wouldn't be as crazy as he was.

Rolling her eyes speechlessly, Ariah reached out her hand to push him away. As if sensing her displeasure, Jimmy's gentle movement suddenly became intense, and the thin piece of her pajamas was soon torn into pieces.

D*mn it...

As rage welled up in her chest, she pushed Jimmy away and roared, "What's wrong with you?!"

He was stunned for a moment as he did not expect that he could tear her skirt off so easily. Her naked body was like a mermaid which exuded endless temptation on the beach...

There was no way that he could resist the temptation of her exquisite figure on the bed.

His Adam's apple bobbed as his dark eyes became unfathomable.

Ariah knew what this expression meant. Before she could move, Jimmy's heavy body had already pressed on her. "Hey, why don't you wear anything? Are you doing it on purpose?" His hoarse, passionate voice rang in her ears.

As Ariah's face turned red, she lifted her leg to kick him. "Get out of my way!"

In response, Jimmy skilfully raised his hand and held her ankle. "Don't move!" His eyes were fierce as he barked at her.

Right now, she felt that he was suppressing his anger, which he wanted to vent on her. How could she allow herself to be intimate with him in such a situation? She thus kicked his lower abdomen and bit down hard on his shoulder.

He instantly hissed in pain.

A fresh swell of fury thus rose in him. Was she courting death by provoking him?

Raising his hand, he gave Ariah a hard slap. She was stunned by his abrupt reaction, which plunged her into great humiliation.

"Jimmy, you b*stard. I will never let you go!"

While screaming in anger, she jumped up in agitation without putting her clothes on. She wanted to fight him to the death, but suddenly she heard a cracking sound as something held her hand tightly. As Ariah looked up, she was so angry that her entire body was shaking.

This b*stard had handcuffed her on the bed!

Why did he do that? Did he think she was a

criminal?

Suppressing her emotions, she spoke to him with a low voice, "Let go of me."

Since she could no longer resist him now, he slowly unbuttoned his clothes.

That undoubtedly drove her mad. "Let go of me! Can you hear me?"

Nevertheless, without saying anything, Jimmy only stared at her with his burning eyes.

"What the hell do you think you are doing? You're just a pervert..." She was really gripped by helplessness now.

While cursing him, she was suddenly kissed by him in an intense manner. He held her so tightly that there was no way for her to break free from him.

As the madness subsided, she was so tired that she fell asleep. Upon heaving a sigh of relief, Jimmy stood up and found the key to unlock the handcuffs.

Her skin was fair, so her wrist was red after being handcuffed for two hours. A trace of distress soon flashed across his eyes as he noticed that.

He knew that Ariah had a slight obsession with cleanliness. With her sticky body, she definitely wouldn't be able to sleep well. Therefore, he carefully picked her up and carried her into the

bathroom.

After bathing her, he placed her on the couch. The clumsy Jimmy then changed the messy sheets into clean and comfortable ones, which he had never done before. It was only when the bed was clean that he carried her back to bed.

Her regular breathing suggested how exhausted she must have been, which also explained why she was sound asleep.

Jimmy, however, couldn't fall asleep, so he sat by the bed and stared at her face for a long time.

He had always been calm and restrained, but Lindsey's words unsettled him earlier on today.

Who was the man that she cared about so much? He worried about that so much that he was sulking over that for the rest of the day.

He did not care about it in the beginning, so why did he become so agitated now? Undeniably, he must have fallen in love with Ariah.

From the moment they got married, he knew clearly that he had no feelings for her. Although they had lived for so many years and had done whatever they should do, he was very sure that he still had no feelings for her.

Instead of describing him as not loving Ariah, it would be more appropriate to describe him as a heartless man, who had witnessed how people were killed very frequently. Therefore, it was inevitable for others to find him aloof.

However, love would always render one weak. When there was a crack on one's armor, one could be killed by the enemy very easily.

He married Ariah because the Hudson Family wanted a grandchild, which meant Ariah was just a child-bearing machine...

How could he fall in love with a child- making machine? Jimmy was thinking about this issue as he sat by the bed.

Jimmy woke up because of the vibration of his phone under his pillow. However, Ariah was still sound asleep. Maybe she had been exhausted by the physical torment last night. After grabbing his phone, he got down from the bed and quietly left the room.

"Hello, Director Sherlock?" It was a call from the director. Jimmy sat on the sofa and pressed his swelling temple. "Why did you call me so early in the morning? This is so unusual." Director Sherlock's voice was deep on the phone. "You're awake?"

"I was awakened by you."

"Since you're awake now, please come to the station. I have something to talk to you."

"What is it that can't be discussed on the phone? It's not nice to pull people out of bed in such a cold winter..."

"Jimmy, I'm not joking with you. I'll give you half an hour to come to the police station. Do you hear me?"

Immediately, Jimmy sobered up and realized that things seemed to be serious. Director Sherlock's reaction was not right, and he had never seen him acting like this.

"Okay."

Without hesitation, Jimmy rushed to the bathroom and said, "I'll be there in half an hour."

Just then, Ariah opened her eyes. She was surprised to find that there was no one by her side. The place Jimmy was lying was no longer warm, which meant he had left quite some time ago.

Thinking about what happened last night, Ariah buried her face in the bed and cursed him a beast with a red face. Then, she got up with her aching waist.

She had slept so soundly, for she was really tired. When she finished tidying herself up, she prepared a simple breakfast, after which she heard some noise at the door.

Ariah was startled when saw that it was Jimmy.

She was still angry, so she snorted and ignored the man who had got out of the room early in the morning.

When she came to the living room, she realized that there was something wrong with him.

With a frown, she called out, "Jimmy?"

Nonetheless, Jimmy didn't seem to hear her, for he didn't even turn his head.

Putting the bowl and spoon down, she got up and walked toward him. As she came to the man's side, she subconsciously reached out her hand to touch his arm. Suddenly, he cold-heartedly waved her hand away.

Ariah was stunned.
