Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 287

Sharon knew Ariah would not believe her. After all, Stanley appeared again after four years of missing. At first, she found it hard to believe it either.

"It's true, Ariah. I saw him with my own eyes, but he has lost his memory, so I may not bring him back with me right now. He thinks of me as a stranger and seems to be wary of me.

Speaking of this, Sharon sighed, recalling the last time when she met Stanley in the hospital. On that day, when she told him about the past and she was the one who injured him, he immediately distanced himself from her.

The next moment, the other end of the line fell silent again, as Ariah was not only shocked but also dumbfounded.

Lost his memory?

For real?

"I plan to get along with him first to see whether I can win his trust, and only then I will persuade him to come back to Beachmarsh with me."

She must let those who had been looking for him, meet him in a perfect condition.

Hearing Sharon's decision, Ariah nodded, "You're right. That's what we shall do now. We shall not tell Ember about Stanley before you bring him back to Beachmarsh."

After the short conversation, Sharon hung up the phone. As soon as she turned around, she ran into a drunkard.

So, she hurriedly apologized.

However, that drunk guy kept on complaining and cursing her.

Seeing that, Sharon frowned and wanted to leave.

Without warning, he went to her front, stopping her. "Don't you dare to leave!"

Under the light, he looked at Sharon with a perverted smile. "Hey, you little beauty!"

The next second, Sharon warned him with a darkened face, "Get out of my way!"

Frustrated, that drunk guy began to act like a hooligan. "I won't just let you go so easily after you bump into me! Do you know who I am? If you want to go, you have to drink with me first. Only then, I'll let you go! Otherwise, you can't walk out of this door today!"

Sharon did not bother to pay attention to him, so she immediately wanted to give Mark a phone call. But, as soon as she took out her phone, that guy had already reached out his hand, snatching the phone away from her. "You're calling the cops, huh? Let me tell you; it's useless! My brother is the chief officer of the police station. So, you should now know what's good for you, and just drink with me!"

"Give my phone back!" Sharon gave him a stern look. "I don't want a scene, so just let me go! Just because someone is backing you doesn't mean you'll get away with it! I'm not someone you can mess with either!" This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

At first, Sharon's ruthless words were only meant to scare him and make him retreat. However, much to her surprise, he was in fact an arrogant person that could not be provoked as he later put on an even more playful face and teased, "Woah, it seems like you're good at talking back, huh? Tell me; who's backing you? If that person is someone ordinary, I won't let you go easily!"

Upon hearing his words, Sharon realized that she was in trouble now as she had messed with a fearless drunkard. So, what she needed to do now was to stay as far away from him as possible. As

for her phone, she could try to get it back after she met Mark.

When Sharon was about to leave, that guy immediately stopped her. "Are you trying to run away?"

He grabbed hold of her wrist tightly, making her begin to panic and shout, "Pervert, let me go!"

After that, she lifted her foot, kicking him with all her strength. Feeling the pain, he screamed, and in the next second, he raised his hand and was about to slap her. "You b*tch!"

Suddenly, someone held his hand, stopping him.

Without warning, Sharon felt that someone grabbed her waist tightly, and her body was pulled into a warm chest. Her back pressed against the man's chest, and his strong huge hand wrapped around her waist. Just as she was shocked by this sudden movement, she heard a man's deep and indifferent voice coming out from above her head, "If you don't want your hand to be crippled, you need to take it back now!"

As soon as he warned that drunk guy, he shook off his hand, looking at him coldly.

Hearing that, that drunk guy immediately looked up, and in the next second, his gaze met with a pair of cold eyes which terrified him. Subconsciously, he withdrew his hand and took two steps back.

Then, with a cold sneer, Stanley held the woman, who was still in shock, in his arms, and left.

"Wait... Wait a moment!" Sharon suddenly spoke.

Lowering his gaze, Stanley looked at her, who was in his arms. "What's wrong?"

"My phone... my phone is still with him..." Sharon pointed at the drunkard, who was in shock as well.

Then, glancing at her, Stanley spoke, "Wait for me.

After saying that, he turned around and walked toward that drunk guy. Before Stanley got close to him, he had already handed over the phone. "Here... Take it!"

Without any hesitation, Stanley took the phone away from his hand and returned it to Sharon, asking, "Is this your phone?"

Instantly, she nodded.

"Let's go."

"Okay."

However, when they were about to leave the bar, a man stopped Stanley all of a sudden. That man seemed to be half drunk. "Hey, Mr. Warner, why are you here? Director Sherlock asked why you do not return..."

As he spoke, he looked at Sharon, thinking evilly. "Wow, this lady is very beautiful. Is she an employee at the Warner Company? Would you like to come in and have a drink with us?"

Most of the men in the business industry, especially those who often showed up in the places of entertainment, always looked at women with a strange look.

Over the past few years, Sharon had learned a lot in the business field. So, she knew that this man probably thought that Stanley was the kind of man who used pretty women to get what he wanted.

At the thought of that, she was annoyed immediately. The next moment, she saw that Stanley walked to her front, protecting her from that man.

He was protecting her.

Noticing that, she looked at his tall and straight figure in a daze. His shoulders were wide, his collar was clean, and the short hair at the back of his head looked neat.

"Mr. Mo, this is my friend. I'll be back in the private room later." He spoke in a direct tone.

As an experienced businessman, Mr. Mo could tell that Sharon was not a woman he could mess with.

So, he then laughed and said, "Alright. Since you said so, I'll go back and tell them that you'll be back soon."

Hearing that, Stanley nodded before he grabbed Sharon's hand and walked out of the bar.

At that moment, Sharon lowered her head, looking at the strong and powerful hand on her wrist... After four years, her heart, which had always been indifferent, had a slight fluctuation again.

As soon as they got out of the bar, Stanley let go of her, saying politely, "Please excuse me for holding your hand. I did it because of what happened just now."

While he was talking, Sharon looked down at her toes, hiding her hands behind her back, and rubbing them. Just then, a strange feeling arose in her heart.

As she remained silent, Stanley frowned. "How much alcohol did you drink? Are you still sober?"

When he was standing beside her just now, he could smell a strong scent of alcohol.

Confused, Sharon looked at him. Did he think that she was drunk? In fact, she was fine as she did not drink much.

"Can you hear me? Can you go home by yourself?"

Subconsciously, Sharon blurted out, "No, I can't."

With that, Stanley asked, "You come to the bar alone without your friends?"

After thinking for a moment, she said, "Yes, I come here alone." She then looked up with her eyes shining brightly, asking, "Why don't you send me home?"

Upon hearing her suggestion, Stanley narrowed his eyes, looking at Sharon with a sharp gaze that made her feel a little guilty. In fact, she really wanted to spend some time alone with him, so that was why she made such a request. He wouldn't be able to see through her intention, right?

While she was thinking, Stanley said, "Let's go; get in the car."
