Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley)
Chapter 522

In fact, Anna didn't expect that Jimmy had never told Ariah about his past. How could Ariah be regarded as his wife?

Proudly, Anna looked at Ariah. "Even though you're with Jimmy, you don't know anything about his past. Ariah, I still won you on this."

Coldly, Ariah said, "You're out of your mind!"

What was there to be proud of!

"We are all women. I know what you are thinking. You said that you don't care, but in fact, you do care a lot."

At that moment, Ariah ignored her and got up to leave.

For a long while, Anna stared at Ariah's back before she suddenly asked, "Do you know Nicole?" Immediately, Ariah turned around with a frown. "Who is that? I've never heard of her before."

When Anna heard Ariah's response, she let out a weird chuckle. "I don't know. Why don't you go and ask Jimmy? He would definitely know."

After Anna said that, she stood up and walked past Ariah as she said, "I feel quite sorry for you. You're like a fool who doesn't know anything."

For a long time, Ariah was stunned, and she stood where she was, frozen.

Meanwhile, recently, Jimmy had been on fieldworks daily, and he was in charge of everything while David and Ben made sure to stay far away from him. They knew that he was in a bad mood these days, and he was like a time bomb that would blow up at any time.

"Look at him. Obviously, he is not living a harmonious life. Not only does he look sullen every day, but his temper has also been bad, and he even likes to lecture us these days."

"Why don't we think of a way to help him?"

"You're the smart one. Why don't you think of a way?"

"Why don't we go and beg Ariah?"

"How?"

"We could make a terrible scene or throw a tantrum to pester her so that she will yield to our boss..."

"Are you even a man? How could you come up with all the tricks that women love to use!"

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"If I were to come up with a plan, I'll definitely teach them a lesson. I'll give them some drugs and lock them both in the room alone. Once they are drugged and locked in a room alone, they will definitely do something!"

After Ariah and Jimmy spent a night together, the anger in their hearts would also disappear, and David and Ben would not have to be on tenterhooks all the time.

Then, David and Ben looked at each other and smiled obscenely. "Since they're a married couple, they would definitely end the intense argument with a make-up sex, hahaha..."

"What are you two b*stards squatting there for? Come here!"

At that moment, Jimmy was standing next to the car with a cigarette between his slender fingers. Then, he glanced at the two subordinates who were rushing over and ordered, "David, you will be in charge of finishing up the work while Ben and I head back to the bureau first."

"Yes, sir!"

On the way back, Jimmy narrowed his eyes and exhaled a mouthful of smoke as he asked, "What were you discussing with David just now?"

Suddenly, Ben tightened his hand on the steering wheel and stuttered, "Oh, it was nothing! We were talking about the case that happened. Sigh, the man was really ruthless. How could he do such a brutal thing to his spouse? Even the blade of the kitchen knife was blunt, and the body of his wife has been disfigured. Some might even think that there was a feud between their ancestors..."

"You seem to be talking a lot, huh?" With a faint smile, Jimmy answered, "You would often have a lot of things to say when you feel nervous and guilty."

As soon as Ben heard that, he became mute.

Meanwhile, Jimmy turned his head and looked out of the window. For today's case, once again, it was a couple who became enemies and ended with a tragedy.

It reminded him of Ariah because she was also a hot-tempered person. Besides, she would keep her words, and there was no room for any perfunctory. Otherwise, she wouldn't still be mad at him.

Even though he had boasted that he would definitely make Ariah agree to his marriage obediently, it was actually a lie, because deep down in his heart, he didn't know what to do.

As a matter of fact, he was even afraid that he would end up in tragedy.

After they returned to the bureau, Jimmy asked Director Sherlock about Kevin. It had been a long time since Kevin was arrested, but there was still no decision made on what they were to do with him. As long as Kevin was still alive, Jimmy's heart would feel uneasy.

Straightforwardly, Director Sherlock told him the truth, "The higher authorities have already intervened with this case. As for how we are supposed to deal with him, it is really not up to us to decide. Let's wait for the result and see how they plan to deal with him."

Then, Jimmy nodded to show that he understood. After he left Director Sherlock's office, the phone in his pocket rang, and it was a call from Ella.

"Mom?"

"Jimmy, come home for dinner tonight. Your brother is back."

Taken aback, Jimmy asked. "When did he return?"

Why did he not receive any news at all?

"It was today's flight, and I've asked the driver to pick him up." In fact, Jimmy's brother was abroad all year round, and sometimes he couldn't even come home during the New Year Festival. Now that he suddenly returned, Jimmy's mother was very excited. "I don't care how busy you are. You have to come home for dinner tonight. Our family hasn't had a reunion dinner for many years, so it is a must for you to come home for this reunion

dinner."

If he didn't go back, Ella would definitely lecture him for the whole year.

With a sigh, Jimmy promised, "Fine, I'll be there after work."

It was then only Ella hung up the phone with satisfaction.

When it was time to get off work, Jimmy went straight to the hospital. Familiarly, he headed toward Ariah's office, kicked open the office door, and went straight in.

At that moment, Ariah, who was in the office, stared in shock at Jimmy, who suddenly barged in and frowned. "What are you doing here?"

However, Jimmy went up to her and sized her up. It seemed that her complexion looked good and that her body had recovered completely. "Are you done with work?"

A moment later, he asked her instead of answering her question.

Meanwhile, Ariah remained silent.

"Since you're done, come with me." As Jimmy reached out to take her hand, Ariah shook it off. "What's wrong with you? What made you think that you could barge in and expect me to leave with you?" Calmly, Jimmy answered in a good temper. "I am here to bring you for dinner."

"Sorry, I already have an appointment."

"Who is it?" With a frown, Jimmy uttered, "Just cancel the appointment."

After Ariah took a deep breath, she answered, "Don't be crazy. I won't go for dinner with you."

Immediately, Jimmy's eyes sank, and he came to her side. "I'm not here to invite you to dinner. I'm here to pick you up for dinner. So there is only one result, and that is you must come with me to dinner." Furiously, Ariah rebuked, "Don't you understand what I've just said? I don't want to go for dinner with you!"

"I'm the only one who can bear this bad temper of yours." At that moment, Jimmy lowered his body and pinched her soft little face with his big hands as he whispered with a hot breath beside her earlobes. "Be good, listen to me. Don't challenge my patience."

While Ariah tried to kick Jimmy, he easily dodged it. However, with a push, he pressed her petite body against the office table and shifted his strong body closer to hers. "Must I go rough on you then only you would be satisfied?"

"Let me go!"

At that moment, Ariah was pressed down on the desk by Jimmy... With her face pressed against the cold table, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Do you think you can defeat me in terms of strength?" Suddenly, Jimmy couldn't stand the fragrance of her body, and his voice changed, "In the matter of strength comparison... Ariah, don't you know how ruthless I am?"

In the end, he was threatening and coaxing her at the same time. "Listen to me. It's just a meal. It's not like I can do anything to you. If you accompany me for this meal, I might be very happy, and won't find you for the next few days. In that case, you won't be bothered."

Only then, Ariah was slightly moved, "Okay, I'll accompany you to dinner, but you have to promise me that you won't disturb me for the next month!"
