Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 165

Sharon was not the only one who was startled, but also the salesperson.

"Did the man just stop me because he took a fancy to this dress and wanted his wife to try it on?" the salesperson thought, bewildered.

Stanley's eyes swept over. "Didn't you hear me?"

The salesperson immediately came to her senses and said, "Uh, no."

Then she instantly took the dress and came to Sharon with a professional smile. "Miss, your husband has good taste. This dress compliments your skin tone very well."

Sharon glanced at her and smiled. "You're right. It does."

Then she went into the fitting room with the salesperson.

Fortunately, the salesperson was poignant and professional, or Sharon would have dragged Stanley out of the store on the spot.

When she came out of the fitting room with the dress on her, a hint of light flashed across Stanley's eyes when he saw her.

Every woman needed a little black dress in her closet.

This was Sharon's first black dress. It was a natural waist design that hugged and outlined her slender waistline perfectly. Her two slim arms that were hanging beside her body were very fair and they complimented the dress very well. It was a perfect dress for her.

Stanley stood up and came to her. He looked down at her and said, "You're very beautiful."

His voice was low and pleasant, with a special charming tone, which made her begin to feel dizzy.

Sharon was a little embarrassed and said, "Take this one then. Let's go."

In the fitting room earlier, she asked the salesperson how much the dress was. It was very expensive.

She was so shocked when she heard the price that she even didn't want to buy a second dress.

Stanley smiled and said, "Okay."

The two of them left under the envious eyes of the salespeople.

Sharon thought that since she had bought the dress as he instructed, she would have the talk with him later to dissuade him from going to the hospital together.

Shawn and Stanley met each other? Forget it.

She didn't look forward to it at all.

At first, she thought that they would leave the mall after buying the dress, but he took her to the cosmetics department next.

Sharon was dumbfounded and did not understand what he was going to do.

Stanley called for the salesperson, took a fancy to some cosmetics, and said, "Apply a light makeup for my wife. She is clumsy and can't do her own makeup."

Sharon looked askance at him.

What did he mean by "clumsy"? That was so insulting.

The salesperson pursed her lips into a smile and started to put on light makeup for Sharon as ordered. Finally, she put on pink lipstick on her lips, producing a lively and young girl look.

The salesperson praised, "Miss, your skin is flawless and perfect. All you need to do is a foundation and you can't see any flaws on your face. You're very beautiful."

Sharon looked into the mirror and was stunned.

Sure enough, the woman in the mirror looked very beautiful and radiant.

Stanley was satisfied. He took her directly to the parking area and said, "Let's go."

Sharon was forced to walk forward as he pulled her. It was quite inconvenient for her to walk faster because of the dress, so she motioned him to slow down, which in turn he frowned and said, "So troublesome."

However, he slowed down his pace.

Sharon saw the opportunity and immediately said, "How about we don't go to the hospital today? Look at me all dressed up. Shall we go shopping instead? How about going to have fun? Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

They could go on a date like an ordinary couple. They could go shopping, dining, and finally watching a movie as the end.

Sharon thought in a daze, "We've been married for a year and sleep together, but we never go for an official date before."

Not even once.

Today was a good chance. He spent all his effort to bring her out, buying her dress and shoes, just like a couple dating...

Thinking of this, Sharon blushed and her heart beat faster and faster.

She looked up at him with her brightly sparkling eyes and asked, "What do you say? Let's have some fun in the mall."

She was too embarrassed to say the word "dating" because she was afraid that he would tease her.

Sharon looked around and couldn't help feeling envious as she saw that there were a lot of young couples wandering around.

Stanley glanced at her with a faint smile. "Do you think it's possible?"

"How is it not possible?" Sharon did not expect that he would refuse her suggestion so quickly.

"I've put in so much effort to take you to the hospital, and you want to have fun with me now?" Stanley smiled scornfully. "Do you think it's possible?"

Sharon was bewildered.

What did he mean by that? Did he bring her out today to buy clothes not on a whim, but with a plan?

Before she could ask this question, he had pushed her into the car.

It seemed that he wouldn't give up unless they went to the hospital today.

Sharon sighed and had to get in his car.

The little excitement that had just emerged in her heart suddenly disappeared.

There went the plan to go for a date with this man.

Alas.

She was looking forward to this impromptu date.

As time went by, the closer they got to the hospital, the more nervous Sharon became. Her palms sweated.

"Don't you hate that I have contact with Shawn?" Sharon looked at the man behind the wheels. Why would he go to the hospital with her? Was he not mad enough?

Stanley kept driving steadily and said, "You have hands and feet, so I can't lock you up with chains to keep you around me. It's your freedom to see who you want to see."

Hey, he came around!

When Sharon was about to praise him, Stanley said, "I'm not comfortable with you going to meet your ex-lover alone after all, so I might as well go with you."

Sharon widened her eyes in bewilderment.

Did he really just say that?

She thought he would be tolerant for a while, but she didn't expect him to be so petty-minded.

Sharon pursed her lip and decided not to say anything. She was not as panicked as she was just now too.

Even if it was not today, one day, Stanley would meet Shawn, and it might be tomorrow.

Could she avoid their meeting forever?

Of course not!

Since she couldn't avoid this, she might as well let them meet.

It was better for two men to meet in front of her than they met in private without her presence!

After thinking through this point, Sharon was completely relieved.

As soon as she relaxed, she was not as nervous anymore. She leaned against the chair and squinted, feeling sleepy.

In the ward.

Peter looked at the time when it already past 12 at noon. Shawn was sitting on the hospital bed with a gloomy expression.

He knew that Shawn was waiting for Sharon.

But it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. Miss Cruz might not come.

Lunchtime had passed.

"Mr. Lewis..."

Thinking of this, Peter stepped forward and said tentatively, "Why don't I go out and buy something for you to eat?"

Shawn repeated the same remark, "I'll wait for Sharon to come over."

"But Miss Cruz may..."

"If she doesn't come, I'll wait until she does.

She'll come eventually."

"But you can't keep on waiting!"

There was no need to torture himself like this. Peter felt a little distressed.

Shawn needed to eat well to promote wound healing. Instead, he not only did not eat but also tormented himself stubbornly.

He was such a willful patient!

However, Peter knew Shawn's temperament very well. Shawn would not give up until he achieved his goal. He said that he would wait for Sharon, so he definitely would do so.

It was impossible to persuade him!

Thinking of this, Peter intended to go out and call Sharon. He would ask Sharon to come over even if he had to beg her for it.
