Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 480

Jimmy looked at Ariah standing outside the door, and his head was in a mess. He opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter a word. Why was Ariah here?

Then, Anna's sharp voice was heard behind him. "Jimmy, stop...

Immediately, Ariah wanted to look behind him. However, if she saw Anna was naked, it would be hard for him to clear himself.

He gritted his teeth and made a prompt decision to close the door while his ice-cold gaze swept towards Anna, which stunned her to the spot.

"Go back!"

He scolded in a low voice. At the same time, he closed the door, wanting to block Ariah's line of sight. Nevertheless, before the door could be shut, Ariah stopped him and asked coldly, "What are you doing?" Then, she pushed him aside and opened the door forcefully, wanting to see what was going on inside.

She had been sitting by the door for the entire night, and her body was so cold that she couldn't feel anything.

Last night was the longest night in her life. When she was sitting outside, she had been speculating about what Jimmy was doing with Anna inside. She tried to convince herself that he was drunk and he wouldn't be able to do anything with Anna.

She told herself over and over again that she shouldn't let her imagination run wild.

However, it turned out that she was wrong.

When Jimmy opened the door, she clearly saw him panic a little.

"What are you afraid of?" Ariah looked at him squarely.

There was a trace of pain on Jimmy's face. "Ariah, let's go out and I'll explain it to you."

"Why do you want to go out? Is there something that you don't want me to see?" Ariah was exceptionally calm now. "Jimmy Hudson, get out of the way!"

"No, listen to me. Let's go out first..."

Suddenly, Ariah reproached, "Jimmy, for the last time, get out of the way! Where's Anna? I wanna see her!"

Jimmy just pursed his lips and stood by the door, not letting her in at all. So naturally, Ariah was blocked outside the door.

She stared at him in disbelief. "Are you trying to protect her?"

Jimmy shook his head. He wasn't protecting Anna. Like before, he insisted, "Let's go out first..."

"Jimmy, do you know that I've been waiting outside here the whole night? I've been convincing myself that nothing happened between you two. Although I don't wanna admit it, I still trusted you. I believed that you won't be such a b*stard!"

Ariah swore that this was the last time she would cry in front of him. From now on, she would never allow this man to hurt her again.

"But the reality is that you've betrayed my trust again and again!"

The last time when Anna showed her the photos, her heart was already broken by him. This time, she even saw it with her own eyes... Once again, he had made her feel heartbroken!

Meanwhile, Jimmy's face turned pale when he heard she had been waiting for him outside the whole night. He tried to explain, but he couldn't. How should he explain it? He actually betrayed her this time!

He should be thankful that Ariah didn't just walk away...

Right then, Anna walked out in her bathrobe. Her hair was messy as she stood by the side and called softly, "Jimmy..."

Hearing that, Jimmy broke into outrage and reprimanded angrily, "What the hell are you doing out here? Go back to your room!"

Frightened, Anna stood there timidly and looked at them as if she was about to cry.

Ariah closed her eyes and tears rolled down her cheek. When she opened her eyes again, something was different. She gave Jimmy a cold look and left without saying anything.

"Ariah!"

Jimmy was shocked by her look and quickly chased after her.

Meanwhile, Anna watched Jimmy leaving without looking back and bit her lip tight. For the first time in her life, she felt like she hated someone.

On the other hand, Ariah strode quickly. Behind her, Jimmy had been calling her name but she just ignored him and got straight into a cab, urging the driver to hurry up and leave.

Only after the cab drove away then did she started to cry. Seeing that, the driver kindly handed her a piece of tissue, to which she accepted gratefully. The driver seemed to be quite talkative as he asked, "Girl, why are you crying? Did you just go through a breakup?"

Girl?

Ariah couldn't help but want to laugh. She wasn't a young girl anymore. She had spent her youth on Jimmy.

What a waste of time!

Seeing that she went silent, the driver thought that he had guessed it right. Sighing, he comforted her. "Don't be sad. Instead, you should be glad that you broke up with him before it was too late..."

Ariah's heart was touched. "You're right, sir, I should be glad that I broke up with him now. From now on, I have nothing to do with him anymore, even if he has another woman and he's got many secrets behind my back. But still, it's heartbroken to realize that he has never loved me despite we've been together for so many years..."

The cab driver just listened quietly. Half of his face was hidden under the cap that he wore. Yet, Ariah was too immersed in grief that she didn't notice anything unusual.

As if she had found someone to listen to her, she kept venting her grievance.

"Eh?" The driver suddenly said, "There's a car following us. Is it your boyfriend?"

With a frown, Ariah looked back in surprise.

Indeed, there was a car following them closely and she could see that it was Jimmy. Why did he follow her so closely?

Was he nuts?

At the same time, Jimmy noticed her looking at him and signaled her to get off the car...

However, Ariah merely retracted her gaze and urged the driver, "Hey, could you please drive faster!"

"Bang!"

Just as Ariah said so, she heard a loud noise and she was thrown forward by the inertia. Luckily, she braced herself from crashing into the front seat.

Their car was hit.

And it was hit by a car from behind.

Who hit them though?

Ariah was still in a daze and before she could react, her body was suddenly pulled out of the car. Turning around, she saw Jimmy's face was covered in blood and his eyes were red. Shocked, she screamed, "Jimmy, what are you doing?"
