Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 206

Rebecca was stunned. Did he fall in love with Sharon?

She couldn't believe it!

"So, because Sharon is Stanley's wife, you are going to play the same trick to bring her to your side and embarrass Stanley, am I right?"

Rebecca was certain.

"Tsk, I'm not interested in playing those old tricks a second time," Liam laughed in a low voice, "It's rare for me to fall in love with a woman, so I naturally have to chase after her with dignity. My first request is for her to be single and then I hope she would give me a chance."

Rebecca tightened her grip on the phone as she sneered, "Since that's the case, then we share the same purpose. The deal is made. May we have a pleasant cooperation!"

Liam whistled excitedly and said, "Great! You're still so decisive, like when you threw yourself into my arms years ago."

"Alright. That's all!"

Rebecca didn't want to talk to him anymore, as Stanley should be arriving soon.

"Wait!" Liam called out to her from the other end of the line.

Rebecca pursed her lips. "Is there anything else?"

The deal had been made, and what kind of other games did he want to play?

"I've come all the way here just to see you. Are you really not going to open the door for me?"

Rebecca was stunned by his affectionate tone.

Liam's Adam's apple bobbed. He narrowed his almond eyes and continued, "Weren't you feeling good yesterday? You're still the same as in my memory. It's been seven years, and you haven't changed at all. When you hugged me and shivered-didn't you feel good?"

"B*stard!"

Rebecca directly hung up the phone. Blood rushed to the top of her head, and her face was burning hot.

Not only was her face burning, but her body was hot as well. She held onto the bedsheets tightly, her palms sweating profusely.

Thinking about those shameless words of his, her eyes were a little lost...

It took a long time for her to calm down.

The door of the ward was pushed open.

Rebecca didn't look up, and she could tell who it was just by the sound of footsteps.

"Stanley..."

She had just called out his name when she paused. Stunned, she looked at the woman next to Stanley.

Sharon?

Why did she follow him all the way here?

Sharon took the lead in greeting, "Hello."

Rebecca snapped back to reality and pretended not to know Sharon. "Miss Cruz, why are you with Stanley?"

Sharon narrowed his eyes and carefully observed her expression. It was as if she didn't recognize her. In other words, the encounter between Rebecca and herself at the Charming Hills Apartment was really just coincident.

Though, what a ludicrous fate!

Sharon cleared her throat and tugged at the man beside her. "Explain."

Stanley looked at the two women and asked, "You guys... know each other?"

Before Sharon could say anything, Rebecca beat him to it. "Yeah, I met Miss Cruz once in the neighborhood and we had a pleasant chat."

Pleasant chat?

Did they?

Sharon didn't say anything and only vaguely nodded.

The two women had never seen each other before. It might be truly a coincidence to run into each other at the Charming Hills Apartment.

Rebecca sat on the bed and said with a smile, "Stanley, I feel much better today, so I can be discharged from the hospital. Let's have breakfast when I discharge, okay?"

"You haven't eaten yet?"

"Not yet."

Stanley nodded. "I'm going to go through the discharge formalities. Wait here."

"All right."

Stanley turned around and was about to leave. He naturally held Sharon's hand. "Let's go together."

Sharon cast a glance at him and said unexpectedly, "Umm, you go ahead. I'm not going. I'll just stay here."

Stanley raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Are you sure?" "Yeah." "Okay." Stanley pinched her face. "Wait for me to come back. Don't make trouble."

In the last sentence, he lowered his voice and whispered in her ear.

Sharon's face turned red with exasperation. What did he mean by that? Was she that much of a troublemaker?

Rebecca watched as the two of them talked to each other intimately. She was smiling, but the hands in the quilt were clenched into fists.

Sharon didn't withdraw her eyes until Stanley left. She scanned around the ward for a bit and sure enough, a president was no regular man. The ward was a VIP ward.

It was laudable that Stanley brought her here, but seeing how nice he treated his exgirlfriend, Sharon was still jealous.

"Miss Cruz."

Rebecca's voice brought her back to her senses.

Sharon snapped back to reality and looked over. "Um... What is it?"

Rebecca pointed at the chair and said, "Miss Cruz, please sit down and rest for a while. There are many people in the hospital.

Stanley will probably take a while."

She was right.

Without further ado, Sharon pulled a chair over and sat down.

Rebecca was leaning against the window. She looked elegant and gentle as if she didn't care about what was going on outside. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Sharon couldn't sit still at her reaction and asked curiously, "Miss Lambert, don't you want to know what's my relationship with Stanley?"

Rebecca glanced at her and answered, "I'm not stupid."

What did she mean?

"You mean that you've guessed it?"

Rebecca nodded.

Sharon raised her eyebrows. "Yet you are still calm?"

"Why can't I?"

"At this time, shouldn't you be just like what those people do on TV, questioning everything between me and Stanley?"

Why didn't she follow the plot?

Rebecca looked over and shook her head. "I don't understand what you mean."

"Stop pretending! When we were in the neighborhood, you've made it clear. Don't you want to be the other woman?" Sharon couldn't stand her indifferent attitude.

"I'm certain I want to get Stanley back, but I'm not going to be the other woman. Miss Cruz, Shall we compete fairly?"

What the hell?

Hearing this, Sharon couldn't tolerate it any longer. "Miss Lambert, have you been abroad for too long that you don't know much about domestic affairs? I'm Mrs. Jones now. Stanley and I are married. Anyone who interferes in our marriage is a third person!"

"A homewrecker is a homewrecker, and she actually suggested to compete fairly with me on the pretext of being one? Excuses." Sharon thought to herself.

Rebecca looked at her calmly and said, "But Miss Cruz, didn't you also say that there was a reason for your marriage, and it's not because you truly loved each other. Since you don't love each other, how can you be so sure that Stanley won't divorce you in the future?"

This was exactly Sharon's weakness. The way she and Stanley met each other wasn't a romantic encounter. She met him when she was at her worst, and she had always felt inferior about it.

Now that Rebecca had brought it up in front of her, she had nothing to say.

Rebecca looked at her with a smile. "So, isn't it the most beneficial for you to compete fairly with me? If I'm going to play dirty, Miss Cruz, do you think Stanley will choose me over you?"

Sharon stared at her in astonishment. Only now did she realize that this woman was really good at playing games.

Now that Rebecca had already laid her cards out on the table to deal a head-on blow at Sharon, even if Sharon had a problem with it or had something to say, she could only hold it in her heart.

When Stanley returned, the two women in the ward were very quiet. He glanced at Sharon who was sitting obediently on the chair and thought that she was very well-behaved for not making any trouble.
