Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) -
Chapter 483
Just as Dr. Willis grabbed Anna's hand, Anna quickly broke away from her grip and shouted, "I'm not going!"
Seeing that, Dr. Willis looked hesitant.
Tears began to roll down Anna's face. She bit her lips tightly and asked, "Jimmy, why are you treating me like this? This is humiliating!!" Jimmy just remained cold. "Nah, I'm just trying to help you here. Didn't you say that we did it last night? Well, I'll marry you if it's true!" Anna looked at the man in front of her in a daze. She wanted to marry him for all her life, but not in this way.
He was pushing her into a dead end now!
Gazing at him, Anna questioned, "Jimmy, do I really have to do this even if I don't want to?"
"Yes."
He said mercilessly.
Immediately, Anna's face lost its color. On the other hand, Howard gave Dr. Willis a look, to which Dr. Willis understood and then tried to grab Anna again. "Miss Anna..." "Don't touch me!"
After breaking free, Anna took a few steps back. Staring at Jimmy, she finally cried out in despair, "Fine, we... we didn't do it last night. I lied to you. You were so drunk last night, and you couldn't... do it at all. I only took off our clothes so you would think that we had sex..."
After she confessed, Jimmy turned his gaze towards Howard and asked, "Did you record everything she said?"
With an "OK" gesture, Howard replied, "Yep, I did."
Anna was stunned. "Wh-what? Why did you record it?"
Jimmy didn't say anything, and Howard answered for him, "Miss Anna, when you were playing these little tricks, have you ever thought that it would hurt Jimmy's wife? Now that you've caused a misunderstanding between them, so of course, Jimmy needs to prove his innocence with the recording."
Anna's face turned red when she heard the ridicule in his tone. She had never been treated like this before and felt really embarrassed.
With hatred, she turned around and left.
After that, Howard handed the phone to Jimmy. "Here, the recording."
Jimmy played it and made sure that everything had been recorded down before sending it to his phone.
Upon finishing that, he went back to the hospital bed and lay down.
Instantly, Howard raised his eyebrows. "Aren't you worried about explaining it to Ariah? Now that you have evidence, why don't you clarify the confusion?"
However, Jimmy thought that since he already held evidence, there was no need for him to be anxious anymore.
So he just closed his eyes and rested.
Seeing that Jimmy was really going to sleep, Howard just shrugged his shoulders and left.
Later, upon getting off work, Howard drove to Sharon's place to look for Stanley, but he was told that Stanley hadn't returned yet. Nevertheless, he went into the house. Smelling the cooking, he asked, "Sharon you're cooking dinner?"
"Nah, the helper is cooking. But since it's dinner time, why don't you join us for a meal?" Sharon was surprised that he had come to visit though.
"Sure!"
Howard was indeed hungry. Coming into the apartment, he then passed the gifts to the twins. "Seamus, Sadie, I bought something for you. Come and see whether you like it or not?"
"Yes, I like it!" The moment Sadie saw Howard, she opened her arms for a hug. "Uncle Howard, hugs!"
Picking her up, Howard joked, "Wow, Sadie, you've grown heavy lately."
Hearing that, Sadie pouted unhappily and refuted, "Uncle Howard, how can you make fun of me? I'm not that heavy! You're annoying!"
"Haha, well, if you think that I'm annoying, then I won't come again, okay?" Howard continued to tease her.
"No!"
When Sadie heard this, she tightened her arms around Howard's neck, saying in a crying tone, "Uncle Howard, please don't go. I was just joking..." Immediately, she started to weep, to which Howard was a little helpless. "Sadie, don't cry. I was just kidding. Of course, I won't leave."
Only then did Sadie burst into laughter.
Watching from the side, Sharon was dumbfounded because Howard was really good at coaxing her daughter.
Apparently, Sadie liked Howard very much, probably even more than her own father, Stanley.
If Jimmy, Howard, and Stanley were to be ranked, then Howard would be ranked first in Sadie's
heart.
However, Sharon couldn't figure out why Sadie liked him so much.
Meanwhile, Howard pecked Sadie on the cheek and said, "Sadie, you look beautiful when you smile, so don't ever cry again, yeah?"
Sadie nodded and promised, "Okay, I won't cry anymore."
"Good girl!"
Sadie beamed with a pair of doe eyes.
Seeing that, Howard suddenly asked, "Sadie, why do you like me so much?"
"Because you're good-looking!"
"Pfft..."
Sharon almost choked on her daughter's words. Was this the reason Sadie liked him? She looked at Howard carefully. Indeed, his features were rather outstanding. He was handsome, tall, and approachable- the type that many girls would fall in love with at first glance.
Surprisingly, Sadie was already drawn to handsome guys at a young age.
On the other hand, Howard was choked for a long time before he asked, "Am I really so good-looking that you like me the most?"
"Yes!" Sadie nodded.
"In this case, do you like me or your father the most?"
Without a second thought, Sadie blurted out, "Of course I like you the most!"
Instantly, Howard's heart was filled with joy and he laughed heartily while pecking Sadie on the cheeks. He was obviously very pleased. "Hahaha, Sadie, you have an eye for men..."
But soon, Howard felt that something was wrong, because he was the only one laughing, whereas Sharon just looked at him with an awkward expression.
Howard's heart skipped a beat. Quickly, he turned around and was astounded.
Stanley was standing behind him with a gloomy face and he seemed like he had heard everything!
