Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 481

It was Jimmy who hit the car!

He was anxious then and only wanted Ariah to stop and listen to his explanation. However, Ariah didn't want to give him a chance.

In a hurry, he accelerated the car without thinking about the consequences. However, the cab in front finally stopped.

Due to the incident, the traffic was temporarily paralyzed.

When Ariah was pulled out of the car by Jimmy, she stared at him in disbelief. "Jimmy, do you know what you're doing?"

How could he act so recklessly?

There was a big gash on his forehead, to which blood was oozing out. Soon, both his face and his clothes were stained with blood.

But Jimmy didn't notice it at all. Instead, he clutched Ariah's hand tightly and said, "Don't go!"

Being drunk and injured now, he felt very dizzy and was close to fainting.

Therefore, his grip on Ariah grew tighter.

At the same time, some passersby called the police, while others gathered around and looked at

them.

Their gaze landed on Jimmy who was covered in blood.

Ariah didn't know why Jimmy did this. She had already seen him cheated on her with her own eyes, so what was the point of him acting like this now? Staring at him, she asked again, "What the hell are you doing?"

"I wanna explain."

"You wanna explain? Alright, go ahead."

"I... I didn't..."

Jimmy felt as if his words were glued to his throat because he couldn't even be sure if he hadn't done those things last night!

Eventually, Ariah was impatient and broke away from his grip with a sneer. "Tsk, you can go back now. We're already divorced so you're free to be with anyone else." Then, she turned around and left.

"Don't go!"

Jimmy wanted to chase after her but suddenly he blacked out and fell straight down.

Before he fainted, he saw Ariah running towards him in a panic and his lips curled into a smile. After all, she still cared about him.

When Jimmy woke up again, the first thing he saw was the white-washed ceiling of the ward. Then, he could smell the disinfectant. Thinking of what had happened, he immediately got up but his vision abruptly went dark, so he had to sit and wait for the dizziness to pass. "You're in the hospital now."

Howard tugged his hands into the pockets of his white coat and stood by the side, looking at him.

However, Jimmy just ignored him and got out of the bed once he felt better.

"Hey! What are you doing?" Howard blocked his way.

"Get out of the way!" said Jimmy hoarsely.

"Are you looking for Ariah?"

Jimmy looked over and asked, "Where is she?"

Hearing that, Howard pointed at the hospital bed and said, "Sit down first."

"Where is she?" With a roar, Jimmy rushed towards him and grabbed his collar. Seeing Jimmy getting infuriated, he curled his lips and finally gave in.

"Ariah had left already when she knew that you're alright."

Seeing that he stood rooted to the ground, Howard sighed and pressed him back on the bed. "You should rest first. Only when you get better, then can you go and talk to her." Jimmy fell silent.

Then, Howard pulled a chair and sat down by his side, asking, "Anyway, what happened between you two? She looked quite weird when she took you here. It was a mix of worry and coldness..." Immediately, Jimmy glared at him, so Howard cleared his throat and quickly explained, "I mean, she looked a little worrisome. Before she left, I asked her if she wanted to wait for you to wake up and she just said that you two are strangers from now on. She also said that you two have already divorced... She's lying though, right?"

Hearing that, Jimmy pursed his lips tight and clenched his fists.

"No way!" Howard was completely dumbfounded when he saw Jimmy's reaction. "Are you two really divorced? I thought you two will get back together after some time since the divorce had been going on for two years..."

But it turned out that the two had divorced already?

He was really surprised by them. Not only did they get married very quickly, but they also divorced quite fast.

"I see. I was wondering why Ariah looked quite strange, it turns out..."

Seeing that Jimmy's face was really dark, Howard swiftly changed the subject. "Well, how do you feel now? If you feel something wrong, you must inform me. Also, you have to stay in the hospital for observation tonight. You'll only be discharged tomorrow if everything's alright..."

"Howard, I cheated on Ariah."

Hearing that, Howard subconsciously blurted out, "Didn't you cheat on her a long time ago?"

"No, I've never slept with another woman before yesterday."

Howard burst out laughing. "Are you joking? I know that you have a mistress. But since we grew up together, I'll always stand on your side..."

"I was drunk last night and Anna took me home." Jimmy didn't seem to have heard what Howard was saying. He just muttered, "When I woke up this morning, we were both naked on the bed, although I didn't remember what happened last night. I could vaguely remember something..."

Upon hearing that, Howard was shocked, but he still insisted, "Well, as your friend, I'll always support you without hesitation..."

Twitching the corner of his mouth, Jimmy laughed at himself. "Ariah waited outside Anna's house for the whole night. She caught me walking out of Anna's house this morning. Howard, do you think she would hate me forever?"

Howard didn't expect that Jimmy would show him his most vulnerable side. Right now, Jimmy looked vulnerable yet confused. He looked nothing like the decisive Officer Hudson at all.

Nevertheless, Howard was puzzled by what he said. What did Jimmy mean that he had never had an affair and that Ariah caught him cheating?

"Uh..." Howard looked at his friend, dumbfounded before he took a deep breath and said, "Tell me the whole story. What's going on between you guys exactly?"
