Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 166

"Mr. Lewis, I'm going out for a while. Call me if you need anything," Peter said.

Shawn nodded.

Peter turned around and went out, but as soon as he opened the door of the ward, he almost bumped into the people outside the door. He paused for a moment before exclaiming, "Miss Cruz!"

Sharon was the one standing outside the door.

She dressed up very beautifully today and even put on makeup, so Peter didn't recognize her for a moment.

Sharon also did not expect that the door of the ward would suddenly open. After she came to her senses, she smiled and said, "Hi. Where is Shawn?"

Peter quickly composed herself, the joyful expression filling his face, and pointed inside. "Mr. Lewis has been waiting for you for a whole morning and didn't even have lunch yet!"

Sharon frowned. "Then why don't you persuade him?"

Shawn was a patient now and needed nutrition the most. How could he not eat?

Peter sighed. "I've tried but he doesn't want to listen to me."

When Sharon was about to speak, another voice resonated, "Are we going to stand here and talk all day?"

When Stanley suddenly spoke, Peter noticed that except for Sharon, Stanley was standing outside the door too. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Why was he here?

Peter frowned.

Stanley took a step forward and put one hand naturally on Sharon's shoulder. "Since we're here to visit the patient, let's go in. have come to see a patient. Don't just stand here."

Peter glanced at the hand on Sharon's shoulder. He didn't say anything, but he didn't look pleasant

However, they were the guests after all.

He took two steps back, opened the door, and invited them in. "Miss Cruz, please come in."

Before Sharon moved, Stanley put his arm around her shoulder and took her in.

The anxious Sharon gritted her teeth and entered the ward following his pace.

Shawn looked straight at the door, and what he saw was the scene of a passionate couple standing together.

Although he often told himself not to be angry when he thought about Sharon being with other men, seeing the scene was totally different than he expected.

He was so jealous that he was about to go nuts.

And this man whom he was jealous of turned out to be Stanley!

He had never expected that the man who married Sharon would be Stanley Jones!

Stanley smiled as he looked at Shawn on the bed. "You're looking good. You are very physically fit to have recovered so fast from being shot."

Shawn lowered his eyes and restrained his emotions. After a while, he looked up and smiled. "You too. After being beaten to a pulp by that Wells guy, you don't seem like you've been injured at all."

"That was just a minor injury. It isn't a big deal. But you, you were shot almost fatally. What did the doctor say?"

"What else can he say? The same old take care of yourself, rest well, and eat well."

As the two of them talked, the atmosphere turned out to be unexpectedly good.

Sharon was surprised and shocked.

These two men...

She had thought that there would be a bloody scene as soon as they met.

However, she did not expect that the atmosphere was actually much better than she had imagined.

Stanley nodded with a smile and said, "The doctor is right. That shot almost killed you. You really need to eat well to get well soon."

Shawn also narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Yes, Sharon brought me some tonic soup yesterday. It was delicious."

With that, his eyes fell on her empty hands.

Sharon came today, but she didn't bring anything.

Sharon looked at Shawn's eyes and felt a little awkward.

It seemed that Shawn really hoped that she would bring him something to eat, but she came empty- handed and didn't even bring any fruit.

"It's my fault," Stanley said lightly, breaking the awkward silence. "Before we went to bed last night, she did tell me that she would bring some soup today, but she got up late this morning and

completely forgot about it when we came out."

Shawn's hands in the quilt were tightly clenched into fists.

Stanley's purpose in saying those remarks was obvious. He was showing off and warning him that Sharon was now his, indicating that Shawn should restrain himself.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Shawn's mouth. He donned a calm expression and said, "That's a pity."

"Oh, no." Stanley smiled slowly and pulled the stunned Sharon to his side. "If you like the food she made, I'll ask her to cook it and bring it here tomorrow."

Sharon was looking at the two men with horrified gazes.

What the hell was going on between them?

How could they talk to each other in such a friendly manner!

Was she hallucinating?

Stanley was obviously so angry with her and Shawn and even threw a tantrum because Shawn called her last night.

However, he was so friendly and mild-mannered now, almost regarding Shawn as a friend... She was a little confused.

So did Shawn. His attitude was also suspicious.

What on earth did these two guys want to do?

When she was thinking about it, Stanley said, "When we came here, your assistant said that you haven't had lunch yet. How about we go to the cafeteria to grab a bite?"

What the hell was he doing?

Didn't they already eat before they came out of the house?

Sharon stretched out her hand and secretly pinched his waist as a warning, indicating that he would not do anything stupid.

However, it seemed that Stanley didn't feel any pain. He even took the initiative to take her into his arms, tilted his head, and said with affection in his eyes, "Dear, I didn't eat much at noon. Would you like to have a meal with me?"

Sharon was more and more horrified. What was wrong with him? Was he possessed?

"Huh?" Stanley, who didn't get an answer, pinched her face gently. "Why are you in a daze? Talk!"

Others might not be able to tell, but Sharon could hear the higher pitch in his tone when he said the last word as a warning.

Sharon immediately replied, "Okay, let's go!"

Her answer obviously pleased him. Stanley smirked, and his eyes were full of gentleness. "Good girl."

Then, he lowered his head and planted a kiss on her forehead under the watchful eyes of the people in the ward.

There was definitely something wrong with him!

He must have been possessed by the evil spirit!

When did he become so gentle?

"Crack". There was an abrupt and loud cracking sound as if something broke.

Sharon looked up in shock. Shawn was sitting on the bed and looking at them with a blank expression and cold gazes. There was a glass in his hand which was already broken.

The shattered glass pierced his palm, and drops of blood slid down, forming blood-red beads.

Sharon was scared out of her wits. "Shawn!"

Peter also reacted and immediately turned to call the nurse.

The blood in Shawn's hand was flowing more and more, and there was a big wound, which looked very scary.

Sharon quickly ran over anxiously. Stanley, who was standing in the same place, suddenly looked gloomy.

"Are you okay?" Sharon reacted very quickly. She grabbed the towel on the side and covered his hand to stop the bleeding. "Relax your fist. Don't clench it! How can you be so clumsy even when drinking water?"
