Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 171

There were people whispering and gossiping behind Sharon, but she just pretended that she didn't see them.

Anger rose in Stanley's heart as he looked on. He pushed the door open and hurried over to Sharon.

Meanwhile, Sharon cursed while walking. She cursed the selfish, petty- minded, and snappish man. It was not even her fault, but he literally left her in rage.

B*stard!

"Hiss..."

She stepped on another pebble that made her face twist in an agonizing grimace.

Some bystanders were laughing at her. They must have taken her as a lunatic.

Sharon rolled her eyes at the bystander. Just as she was about to go on, her body suddenly rose into the air.

"Ah!" she cried out in surprise and hugged the person subconsciously.

When she looked up, her eyes widened in bewilderment.

Stanley? Why was he here?

Didn't he leave?

Why did he come back?

Sharon looked up at him in a daze.

She stared at his chin, which was a perfect and smooth curve, emphasizing the firm yet gentle jawlines.

Sharon was still in shock when he suddenly put her down on the roadside bench. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

He stood in front of her, blocking all the sunshine and letting her sit under the shadow.

Sharon looked up and saw Stanley lowering his head. Since his back was facing the sun, she could not see his face but only large circles of lights surrounding him as if his shoulder was covered with a layer of golden halos.

Sharon squinted her eyes due to the dazzling light. After a long time, she asked, "Why did you come back?"

Stanley looked at the woman in front of him and pursed his lips. After a while, he said, "Sit still."

Then he turned around.

Sharon stared at his back and did not know what he was going to do.

Initially, she thought that he had left in a rage, but she didn't expect that he would return.

Why did he come back? Was he worried about her? Or was he afraid that she couldn't go back by herself?

Before she could think further into it, the sound of footsteps resonated again. He was walking towards her.

Sharon looked up and her mouth agape in awe when she saw the thing in Stanley's hand.

Was that the shoes she threw away?

She was right. He was taking the high heels she threw at him when she lost her temper just now.

Why did he pick them up?

Stanley stood in front of her. When she opened her mouth and was about to speak, the tall man suddenly squatted down.

Sharon's eyes widened in horror.

She was so bewildered by his gesture that she shrank involuntarily.

Stanley gripped her ankle tightly with his big hand. She wiggled reflexively that made Stanley exert a bit more force in his hand and said in his deep and mellow voice, "Don't move!"

Sharon looked at him in a daze, watching him lift her foot onto his knee regardless of the dirtiness. He swept away the dirt on her feet and put the shoe on it.

The tall and handsome man was kneeling on one knee in front of the beautiful and disheveled woman. The picture was so beautiful that it was like a painting.

It was also like the romantic scene in the movie.

The bystanders whispered, "He's so handsome. Is he a celebrity?"

"He won't propose to her right there, will he?"

"This is such an eyesore. We're all at the hospital, but why do I have to be warded but there they are, displaying affection..."

Sharon listened to the whispering, flabbergasted.

Her heart was beating faster, and her palms started to sweat.

She had never seen Stanley behaving like this before.

And Stanley had never done such a thing for her.

She looked at this man in confusion. She couldn't figure out what he really wanted to do.

He must have gone crazy again! He was out of his mind!

Sharon could only think so...

After wearing shoes for her, he stood up silently, bent down, put his arms behind her back and legs respectively, and carried her in his arms.

Sharon's heart skipped a beat again.

Why did he carry her again?

It was understandable for him to carry her just now since she was bare-footed, but why did he carry her now that he had put on the shoes on her?

Sharon did not notice that all the female passers-by were staring at her enviously at this moment.

Sharon sat in the front passenger seat, and it was eerily quiet inside the car.

She told herself again and again not to turn her head to look at him... However, she couldn't control herself from turning her little head to look at him again and again...

His side profile was really handsome with a thick forehead, straight nose bridge, and sexy thin lips.

Sharon was so mesmerized by his good looks that she couldn't look away, then she blurted, "Didn't you leave? Why did you come back?"

Stanley drove steadily. After a while, he said, "Who said I left?"

"Just now..."

"I was just going to get the car. When I came back, you disappeared."

Sharon was speechless.

Did he expect her to stay in place and wait for him after leaving without saying anything? How would she know that he would return?

The silence ensued inside the car.

After a long while, Sharon looked out of the window, not knowing where he would take her to. She asked, "Where are we going?"

She was curious because it was not the way home.

Stanley pursed his lips and held the steering wheel tightly. After a while, he said, "You'll know when we arrive."

Sharon frowned and looked at him with her head tilted to one side. Why so mysterious?

What the hell was he doing now?

But no matter how she asked, he wouldn't give her an absolute answer.

Finally, Sharon was fed up asking but without getting an answer, so she kept her mouth shut and started to doze off. He wouldn't harm her in any way, so she couldn't be bothered anymore.

She took quite a long nap. Suddenly, she felt suffocated as if a boulder was pressing on her chest that she couldn't breathe.

Sharon was a rock squad who didn't know how to swim. She never learned how to swim when her father taught her when she was a child, and she would cry loudly whenever she was in the water. Eventually, her father felt sorry for her, so he did not want to force her to learn anymore.

Now, the feeling in the dream was like learning to swim. There was no air and she couldn't breathe. She opened her mouth and gasped desperately, wanting to breathe, but something crawled in...

She was on the verge of being swallowed up by the power as if was taking everything from her.

Sharon finally woke up. She suddenly opened her eyes and saw a handsome face in front of her.

Stanley Jones!

Sharon raised her hand and gave the man a hard slap on the arm.

Stanley grimaced in pain and let go of her. There was a flash of lust in his eyes as he looked at her.

Sharon opened her mouth and took a few deep breaths. When she recovered, she stared at him and said, "You're killing me!"

She almost couldn't breathe.

Stanley swallowed, and the black color in his eyes deepened. Sharon's hair was messy, her face blushing, her big eyes watery. Her voice was trembling weakly which could captivate one's soul.

Stanley said in a low voice as his chest undulated anxiously, "You're sleeping like a pig. I can't wake you up no matter how."

So he could only use this method to wake her, but he fell deeper and deeper into the lustful trap.

She was sleeping like a pig?

Which woman was happy to hear a man call her a pig?
