Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) -
Chapter 485
"Nope, I'm not interested in his past, neither am I interested in coming down to see you!"
Ariah said with a cold tone.
Anna didn't seem to have expected her to refuse right away. After a long while, Anna said with certainty, "Ariah, I know you will meet me. I'll wait for you here for twenty minutes."
"I won't see you even if you wait for two days. I've made myself very clear!"
Upon saying that, Ariah directly hung up the phone.
She told herself that she and Jimmy were done already. No matter what happened to Jimmy, it had nothing to do with her anymore.
So, she shouldn't be curious at all!
Taking a deep breath, she went to the bathroom, wanting to take a relaxing bath and then have a good sleep. When she woke up the next day, she would go back to the previous her and forgot about those things that had upset her...
However, her steps paused.
"D*mn it!"
She cursed in a low voice, gritted her teeth, and
turned around.
She just couldn't help but be curious.
Arriving at the place that Anna had mentioned, she saw Anna was indeed waiting there.
Seeing her, Anna gradually smiled. "I know you'll come."
"Alright, I'm here, so what?" Ariah shrugged her shoulders.
Anna looked at her with a frown.
"Just cut straight to the point, or else I might change my mind and leave." Coming down, Ariah had been in a dilemma, but now she was actually calm. "So, what do you wanna tell me? Is it that how much you and Jimmy were in love, or that you two should be a pair since you guys have known each other longer than I did? Oh, let me guess. Are you gonna ask me to give up on him then?"
Slowly, Anna's expression cracked and a trace of disbelief flashed across her widened eyes, to which Ariah saw and sneered. "Miss Anna, I thought that you have something interesting to say. It turns out that these were what you wanna say. Please, can you use a little clever tricks next time?"
Anna bit her lips and gazed at her hatefully. "When I was with Jimmy, you were just nobody. He only married you because he had to conceal his identity, so don't get too proud of yourself!" To conceal his identity?
A keen light flashed across Ariah's eyes. "What do you mean?"
Last night at the clubhouse, Anna had said that she was just a substitute. Together with what Anna said just now, Ariah believed she must know something.
"You must have wanted to tell me something when you told me to come down. So why are you hesitating now?" Ariah took a step forward and stared at her. However, Anna just asked unhurriedly, "Well, first, let me ask you something."
"Go ahead."
"Do you love Jimmy?"
For a moment, she was dumbfounded by Anna's question as she didn't expect Anna to ask such a question.
"As far as I know, you two got engaged very quickly. So I assumed you two had married without much feelings of love, which was why I wanted to ask-Miss Myers, do you love Jimmy?" When Anna saw Ariah didn't speak for a long time, she asked again.
After a moment of silence, Ariah finally said,
"Jimmy is my husband, so of course, I love him."
"Why? You two obviously didn't love each other when you got married. Did you fall in love with him because of all these years spent together?"
Immediately, Ariah's lips curled up when she heard that and something flashed across her face. In the next second, Anna heard her say, "Didn't you say you knew everything about Jimmy? So how did you not know that we met before we got married? And, I fell in love with him when he saved me back then."
Anna widened her eyes in surprise. "You've met him before? When?"
However, Ariah was starting to get impatient. "I've answered all your questions. Now, it's your turn."
If it hadn't been for her damn curiosity, she wouldn't have stuck in this coldness and waited for Anna to reveal about Jimmy's past.
Ariah had been married to Jimmy for so many years, and Jimmy knew almost everything about her. Yet, she knew nothing about him.
He hardly mentioned anything about his past and even kept Anna's presence out of sight for so many years. Therefore, as long as Jimmy was willing, he could keep his secrets from her forever.
"Last question." Anna looked straight into Ariah's eyes. "You said that you love Jimmy, then what do you love about him? Is it his looks, his personality, or his identity?"
"All of these are an indispensable part of him. If any of these components had been missing, he wouldn't have been the person we know now."
Gradually, Ariah's eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper as she didn't understand why Anna was so interested in talking about these things. "Anna, your question is getting a little boring now. I loved Jimmy the way he is, be it his look or his personality."
Although now, she was trying to remove Jimmy from her heart.
That was why she had to face her feelings and be frank about it now.
Suddenly, Anna smiled. It was the kind of smile that made Ariah's hair stand on end.
"Anna, why are you..."
"Take a look at these."
"And tell me, do you still love Jimmy after seeing these?" As Anna said that, she took out a few photos from her pocket and passed them to Ariah.
Ariah subconsciously took a look at the photos, and her eyebrows creased up slowly. Puzzled, she asked, "Why are you showing me these photos? And, who's the man in the photos?"
Looking at the photos, she was completely baffled.
Apparently, they were old photos as the corners of the photos were yellowed already. The pictures were taken in different places. Some of them were taken in nightclubs, some in KTVs, and some on the streets.
The only similarity between them was that the subject in the photos had never changed. It was a man.
