Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 178

"No." Peter explained, "The doctor said that you haven't fully recovered and can't be discharged from the hospital..."

"I know my own body, I don't need you to tell me," Shawn said in an indifferent but firm tone. "Go to deal with the discharge procedure and arrange a meeting with Liam for me."

Peter couldn't refuse, so he had to agree.

Liam came to the place where they met. It was the same restaurant and private room as last time. He pushed the door open and went in. Shawn had already sat there.

Leaning against the door, he said with a smile, "Why do you have time to invite me out?"

Shawn raised his finger and pointed to the chair opposite him. "If you don't want to see me, you won't come."

"I'm just curious why you want to see me," Liam said while pulling out the chair.

"I found something. You and Harvey Wells are business partners, am I right?" Shawn said calmly.

Liam narrowed his eyes. "Are you here because of Harvey Wells?"

"I just want to know what's the relationship between you and him?" Shawn wanted to take the glass in front of him, but it was a little far away. He stretched out his hand and grimaced as the action pulled his wound. Peter quickly took the glass for him.

Liam looked at him and said slowly, "What else is there to ask since you have found out the relationship between us?"

"Do you know what he has done recently?"

Before Liam spoke, Shawn had already said, "He hired a group of mercenaries and planned to kill Stanley, but he used Sharon as bait."

Liam was a little surprised because he didn't expect that Shawn knew about it.

"Do you want to know how I know it?" Shawn asked.

Liam raised his eyebrows. "How?"

Shawn pointed to his shoulder. "Thanks to him, I got this injury on my body."

Liam immediately understood. "Are you here to seek revenge? I'm sorry. Harvey is missing. Not only you, but I'm also looking for him, but I can't find him."

Shawn smiled. "If I want to seek revenge, of course, I won't come to you."

Liam frowned. "What do you mean?"

"When I was hospitalized in the hospital for a few days after I was injured, I asked my men to investigate Harvey. I wanted to find out what kind of grudge he had with Stanley. Guess what I found?"

"Get to the point."

Shawn took a sip of hot tea and said after a while, "I didn't expect that you, Liam, are also a Jones."

There were only a few people who knew that Liam's last name was Jones. Liam was an illegitimate son who was secretly taken back to the Jones Family at the age of 10. His father had never publicly announced that Liam was the second son of the Jones Family, so only a few family friends knew his real identity.

However, it was not a tough nut to crack if someone wanted to find out his real identity.

Liam did not intend to conceal the information, so he admitted without hesitation, "You're right. I'm a Jones."

Shawn put down the glass in his hand. "Then why did you want to make a move on the Jones Family?"

"I don't need to tell you that. Tell me your purpose of coming to me. What do you want to do?" Liam said with a smile.

Shawn looked down and raised his head after a long while. "I want to cooperate with you." "Oh? On what?"

"If you want to make a move on the Jones Family, I can help you, with one condition." Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Liam was a smart man. He understood as soon as he thought about it. "Sharon?"

Shawn looked straight at him, and his eyes were bright. "Yes, Sharon. I want her!"

After the movie was over, Sharon's eyes were still red. Stanley helplessly glanced at the woman next to him. "It's just a movie. There's nothing to cry about."

"You are so cold-blooded." Sharon sobbed in a low voice, afraid that she would be seen. "The movie was so heartbroken. The hero died and the heroine eventually forgot him. How could you not cry after watching such a miserable plot?"

There was nothing Stanley could do about it. Women were indeed sentimental.

After the movie was over, there were a lot of people outside the cinema hall. Sharon looked over and found that all of them were people. All of a sudden, she felt a tight grip on her and she was pulled toward a direction.

Stanley held her in his arms to prevent her from being hit by the pedestrians.

Sharon's heart began to beat wildly again.

If he flirted with her like this often, her little heart would not be able to bear it.

His embrace was so broad and comfortable that Sharon felt as if she was hiding inside a shield. She wasn't afraid of being pushed or trampled by others at all. With her heart full of sweetness, she held his hand behind her.

Stanley seemed to be stunned for a moment. After a pause, he reached out his big hand and held her hand tightly.

Sharon curled up the corners of her mouth and grinned.

Her heart, which had just been tortured by the movie, slowly began to fill with sweetness again.

After getting out of the mall, Sharon still had a smile on her face, which was getting wider and wider. Stanley squinted at her and said, "What are you smiling at?"

Sharon immediately covered her mouth. "Am I smiling?"

Stanley nodded. "Yes."

Sharon gave him a punch and said, "No, I'm not!"

There was a faint smile on Stanley's face as he looked at her motionlessly. His gaze was deep and profound. Sharon swallowed hard and was about to speak when he pulled her over to him with a tight grip on her waist. He actually kissed her in public.

Sharon was astounded.

He had always been reserved and rarely done anything intimate in front of so many people. He did get rowdy and flirtatious but that was when they were in private.

Now they were surrounded by people who were coming and going. Sharon felt that she was looked at by the bystanders' curious and gossipy glances from time to time.

She gently struggled, but Stanley held her tightly.

Sharon could not move, so she had to give up.

After a long time, he let go of her. Sharon's face was already very red, and regardless of her shyness, she grabbed his wrist and left immediately.

She didn't stop until she ran for a long distance.

Stanley looked down at her. His rapid breathing was echoing in her ear. The night was very quiet, and she heard his heart beat faster and faster.

Sharon looked up and bumped into his dark and deep eyes. Her legs were a little weak and her head was a little dizzy.

She licked her lips and felt a little hot under his intense gaze. "W-What are you looking at me for?"

Stanley's voice was low and sexy, full of charisma. "You're beautiful."

Sharon felt as if she was in a dream. "Why did you kiss me just now? I thought you didn't like to be intimate in front of so many people?"

Stanley took a step closer to her and pressed his breath toward her. "I can't help but want to kiss you."

Sharon's whole body was numb, and she could hardly stand still. "I... I..."

She couldn't say a word, but only felt that she was surrounded. Her heart beat fast, her body was hot, and her lips were dry. She didn't know what had happened to her.

But this feeling was very comfortable and wonderful. She did not find it repulsive.

She knew that she had this feeling because of this man.

She thought, she completely fell in love with him.

"Mom, look! She is so shameless! She just kissed a man in the mall."
