Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 242

"Anthony!"

The man in the hospital bed shouted angrily.

Reacting quickly, Anthony immediately pressed the door. "Mrs. Jones..." RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

With a frown, Sharon looked at the both of them. "You both are so much older than me. Can you stop being so childish?"

After hearing her words, Anthony blushed. Although it was indeed childish to force her to stay, this was an order. He dare not disobey. If he disobeyed, he might be fired tomorrow.

"Get out of my way! Let me out of here!"

Anthony looked at the man on the hospital bed, while Stanley looked at the stubborn woman. He pursed his thin lips and asked in a low voice, "Are you still angry with me?"

Sharon remained silent.

"I have said what I should say, and I have explained what should be explained. Why are you still angry?"

"You've explained it, but it doesn't mean that I'll forgive you!" Suddenly, Sharon turned around, and her eyes were sparkling. "You said that if I gave you a second chance, you would still go abroad without telling me... Stanley, then let me inform you that my anger that had accumulated for the past ten days won't disappear that easily. I'll be mad at you, until the day I decide to forgive you!"

"Then tell me, when will you forgive me?"

"I don't know. It'll take a long time anyway!" Sharon sneered coldly. If she were to forgive him so soon, she would despise herself.

Pursing his thin lips, Stanley looked at her with his deep, pitch-black eyes.

From his expression, Sharon could tell that he was furious right now, but she did not care about it at all. If he was angry, then let him be. He had the right to disappear, so she had the right to not forgive him.

The gaze of a man and a woman met. Neither of them was willing to lose.

After a long time, the men compromised beforehand.

Looking very pale, Stanley ordered, "Anthony, get me discharged from the hospital. I'll go back to school with her."

Glaring at him, Sharon sneered, "You're crazy!"

Lifting the blanket, Stanley was about to get up. "Since I've asked for your forgiveness, then I'll be with you 24 hours a day. I'll follow you everywhere you go. If you don't want to stay in the hospital, that's fine. I'll go to school with you."

Staring at him in shock, Sharon felt that this man was out of his mind.

Trying to stand, but Stanley's body was still too weak. With that, his body swayed a little, and his vision went a little black. Sharon's expression changed, and she strode over to support him, "Serves you right. What are you trying to prove? The nurse has already ordered for you to stay in bed!"

"I don't care!"

"But I do!" Sharon roared. "How you suddenly fainted at school, scared the hell out of me, don't you know that?"

After that, she met the man's bright eyes. Stunned for a moment, she then realized what she had just said. She guessed that her words made him feel comfortable.

How could she say those words out loud? With that, she cleared her throat and said, "Don't move. Listen to the nurse's advice and continue to take the drip. I really have to go back, or it will be too late to..."

"If you are not in the hospital, I would not stay here. It's up to you."

Before she could finish her sentence, Stanley interrupted her.

That made Sharon enraged. Why does this man have such a bad temper?

Anthony, who stood aside, looked at the whole scene. He took the opportunity to join the conversation. "Mrs. Jones, it's just one night. It would be more convenient for you to take care of him. Besides, I don't have time to take care of him at night. There still some family stuff I need to deal with. If you're not taking care of him, I guess I'll have to hire a caretaker."

Suspiciously, Sharon looked at him, "Don't you live by yourself? What's there to handle at home?"

"Uh, I recently got a girlfriend, and I promised to bring her to the movies this evening."

"Is that true?"

"Of course it's true."

Still in disbelief about what he said, but seeing how firm his oath was, Sharon had no choice but to grit her teeth and stay.

"If it weren't for the fear that you would really follow me back to school, I would not stay here with you."

"I think you're afraid that if I return to the dormitory with you, your classmate would seduce me. You must feel uncomfortable."

Not bothered to deal with this arrogant fellow, Sharon turned around and walked out.

Seeing that, Stanley's eyes darkened. "You've agreed to stay with me, yet you still want to leave?"

Sharon's footsteps paused, then she turned around and rolled her eyes. "I've taken care of you for so long, but I have not had dinner. I'm just going to the canteen to eat something, and when I get back, I'll get Charles to eat."

Smiling, Anthony said, "Mrs. Jones, don't worry about me. I just ate a little outside..."

"Anthony hasn't eaten yet. You should accompany her to eat. The two of you aren't needed here. Come back quickly after you've finished eating."

Calmly, Stanley interrupted the two of them. Then, he casually picked up a magazine to flip through. "I'll give you both 20 minutes to finish your meal and return, or else I'll go down and find the two of you personally."

Hearing that, Sharon cast a glance at him. Knowing that he was afraid that she would slip away, so he specially arranged Anthony to follow her around.

After a moment of silence, she turned around and left.

Following that, Stanley gave Anthony a look, and Anthony immediately followed.

In the cafeteria.

To be honest, Sharon was hungry. For the past few days, she was standing on a tightrope. She was also in a tense mood. Thus, she had not eaten well. Basically, she would throw up anything she ate, so she did not feel hungry.

Now the man finally came back. Although he was injured, it was a good thing that nothing serious happened. As a result, she felt more relaxed and her appetite was better.

Buying a big bowl of rice, Sharon ate it deliciously. "Charles, are you sure you don't want to eat?"

"I'm not hungry. Mrs. Jones please eat."

Nodding, Sharon did not say anything else. Lowering her head, she was focused on eating her food.

Almost at her last bite, Sharon looked at the time and almost jumped up from the chair. "Hurry up, there are only five minutes before the 20-minute mark. If we don't go back, your abnormal boss will really come to kill us."

As she knew Stanley's bad character too well.

Seeing her reaction, Anthony did not know whether to laugh or cry. Immediately he followed her after paying the bill.

On the way back, while they were waiting for the elevator, Sharon asked him, "Have you been following Stanley all this time overseas?"

Without thinking too much, Anthony answered casually, "Yes."

"Then when I called you, why don't you answer it?"

"Tell me, since he's already back. What else is there to hide?"

"Because Mr. Jones ordered me not to pick up your calls, nor to reply to your texts."

Sure enough, it was an order from him!

Gritting her teeth, Sharon continued, "Did he really lose his phone?"

Swearing to god, Anthony answered, "That's true. I have been looking for it for several days. It's gone."

After a while, she thought of something and continued to ask, "About Harvey, are you guys really done with him? He won't come back and revenge on Stanley again in the future, right?"

Knowing that she was worried about Stanley, so he smiled and said, "No, I saw Harvey died with my own eyes. He was shot in the head, died on the spot, and his blood flowed all over the ground..."

"Ugh..."

Covering the corners of her mouth, Sharon felt a little nauseous. "That's enough. Stop talking. It's disgusting."
