Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 606

Instantly, Jimmy saw the red marks on Ariah's wrist.

And he snapped, "What happened?"

Ariah didn't expect him to have a sharp observation and notice the marks, since they were not that obvious.

But how should she explain it?

She couldn't just tell him that this was Kobi's doing, could she? Because he would definitely go mad and challenge Kobi.

And that would cause the relationship between Kobi and Jimmy to fall apart.

Ella would have hated her even more then.

Seeing that she kept quiet, Jimmy became even furious. "Are you dumb?"

"Nope."

"Then talk!"

"About what?" She decided to play dumb.

Jimmy sneered. "Are you gonna pretend like the red marks aren't there?"

Lowering her head, Ariah pretended to be surprised. "Eh? When did I get these bruises?"

Instantly, Jimmy's gaze grew cold.

Oh well, it seemed like she couldn't fool him anymore.

With a sigh, she finally admitted. "Alright, these were caused by Sharon."

"Sorry, Sharon. I have no choice," she thought.

Jimmy was taken aback. "Sharon?"

"Yep."

"Why did she do this to you?"

"Well, it's a long story..."

"Then make it short!"

Ariah was choked at his words.

But she knew that Jimmy definitely wouldn't let her go if she didn't explain it clearly. After some thoughts, she said, "Alright, I'll tell you. But let go of me first. It hurts."

Hearing her slightly coquettish tone, he grew softhearted and let go of her.

Being released, Ariah rubbed her wrist and slowly told him what happened. "Well, after Sharon drank the concoction and woke up, she couldn't recognize me so she did this accidentally."

She was telling half of the truth. Hopefully, he would believe it.

Sure enough, Jimmy frowned in silence.

Knowing that he must have believed part of it, Ariah continued, "Don't worry. It doesn't hurt. It'll get better in just a few days."

Jimmy then glanced at her. "Stay away from her in the future."

"Who?"

"Sharon."

"Why?"

"She might go mental again."

Choked at his words, Ariah looked away.

Silently, she apologized to Sharon for causing her to take the blame and be labeled as a dangerous figure.

"Achoo!"

Sharon sneezed, to which Seamus handed over a handkerchief and asked in concern, "Mom, are you having a cold?"

Hearing that, Sharon shook her head. "I don't think so."

But someone must have spoken ill of her behind her back, or else she wouldn't have sneezed abruptly.

When Stanley came out of the bedroom, Sharon immediately walked over. "How's she?"

"Hazel said that she had slept for a while in the afternoon. Now that she just woke up, she wants to see you."

Sharon quickly nodded. "Okay, I'm going in." Then, she held Seamus's hand and said, "Seamus, let's go and see grandma."

After Sadie had disappeared, Ember fell ill and hadn't eaten until now, so her condition was not quite right. It wasn't until Sadie came back that she finally got better.

When Sharon was in the hospital, Stanley already had the twins sent to his mother's side.

Right now, Ember was extremely happy to see Sadie again and held the little girl in her arms tight.

Walking into the ward, Sharon immediately saw Sadie lying in Ember's arms, yawning out of boredom.

Ember had been holding Sadie, as if she was afraid that Sadie would go missing again.

So Sadie had no choice but to stay in her grandmother's arms.

"Ahem."

Sharon cleared her throat and walked over. "Sadie."

Quickly, Sadie looked up and said in an aggrieved tone, "Mommy, I'm hungry."

Grandma had been unwilling to let her go, so she couldn't leave to eat.

"Sadie, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Hearing that, Ember instantly let go of Sadie and asked, "Alright, what do you wanna eat? I'll cook for you."

With that said, she was about to get out of bed. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Startled, Sharon stopped her. "Wait, there's no need. What you need now is to rest. Just ask Hazel to take her out to have some food."

Getting out of bed, Sadie threw herself on Seamus and said, "Let's go and eat."

With a pampering look, Seamus took her hand and said to Sharon, "Mommy, I'll take her out."

Sharon nodded, and Seamus took Sadie out of the ward.

"Hazel, follow them. Quick," Ember commanded with a worried look.

Hazel nodded smilingly and followed the twins.

Seeing that Sharon was about to follow her children out as well, Ember called out, "Sharon!"

With a pause, Sharon took a look at her.

"Come and sit here." She patted the side of the bed.

Walking over, Sharon did not sit down on her bed, but on a chair by the side.

Ember pursed her lips. "Sharon, I'm sorry." "What are you apologizing for?"

Sharon was puzzled.

"If it hadn't been for me, Sadie wouldn't have been kidnapped. Fortunately, she's fine now. Otherwise, I wouldn't have forgiven myself."

Ember was blaming herself. She felt very sorry that they encountered such a thing the first time she had gone out for a meal with Sharon and the kids.

"No, don't blame yourself. Someone was trying to kidnap her... Anyway, she's fine now, so don't worry. What you should be concerned about is taking proper rest so that Stanley would feel at ease." Sharon didn't know how to comfort Ember though.

The kidnapping had dealt a huge blow to Ember and she hadn't eaten anything for the past two days.

A while later, Ember's eyes reddened and she asked, "Can you forgive me?"

Sharon was at a loss for what to do. "Well, this has nothing to do with you. You don't have to blame yourself and neither did I blame you. Instead, I sincerely hope that... you'll be fine too."

She was a little worried about Ember since Ember hadn't eaten anything.

After hearing her words, Ember instantly got out of bed. "Alright, I'll listen to you. I'll go eat."

She had lost her appetite in the past few days.

But now that Sharon had said so, even if she still hadn't had much appetite, she would force herself to eat something.

Sharon quickly propped her up.

After taking a few steps, as if she was muttering to herself, Ember suddenly asked in a low voice, "Sharon, have you forgiven me?"

Sharon was startled.

She knew that Ember wasn't talking about the kidnapping this time.

Instead, she meant... Sharon's father.

For a long time, Sharon pursed her lips together tightly and said nothing.

With a sigh, Ember felt as if her hope had vanished. She knew that Sharon still hated her...

Just as she thought that she wouldn't get Sharon's reply, her voice suddenly sounded.

"It's none of your business. There's nothing to forgive about."
