Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 91

"It's your first time to handle a gun, so I can't give you the real thing. If you really want to learn it, you can ask me for help in the future." Jackson put the pistol in his hand and flipped it. "If you really want to shoot a gun, you have to wear an earplug. Your eardrums won't be able to stand it because it's very loud."

It turned out that he was doing this for her own good.

"Okay." Sharon nodded timidly. It was very sunny today and she began to sweat after standing under the sun for a while. Jackson pointed to the distance and said, "It's cold over there. Let's go over and take a walk."

Sharon glanced at him and said, "Okay."

The two slowly walked over and came to the shady place. A waiter had already stood there with cold water in his hand. Jackson gave her a glass of water. Sharon thanked him and raised her head to drink it as she was really thirsty.

"Miss Cruz, do you know Shawn Lewis?"

Sharon halted, and her mind began to buzz and turn blank. She seemed to have heard his question, but it seemed that she did not hear It was very sunny today, but she felt that her limbs were getting chilly. She put down the glass and forced herself to smile. "I don't understand what you are talking about."

Jackson looked at her pale face and suddenly smiled. "It's okay. It just came off the top of my head. Don't mind me."

Sharon, on the other hand, was in a mess. She felt dizzy, wondering if she suffered a heatstroke, and asked, licking her dry lips, "Why do you suddenly ask me that?"

Jackson leaned against the trunk, holding the gun between his fingers and looking ahead with his deep gaze. "I know a guy named Shawn Lewis and once I saw a photo in his wallet by accident. It was a young girl's photo which he cherished very much. The girl in the photo looks like you, so that's why I asked."

Sharon breathed a sigh of relief.

"Perhaps I have an ordinary face, so I look like a lot of people."

Jackson handed the gun to the waiter, brushed the dust on his shoulder, and smiled. "Stanley must be getting impatient now. Let's go."

"Okay."

Sharon walked back with him, but her heart

was in a mess.

When they came to the place where the umbrella was at, Sharon was shocked to not see Melody around, so she asked Stanley who was leaning on the chair, "Where is Melody?"

Stanley looked at her indifferently and said, "She left."

"Where did she go?"

"She left after answering a phone call."

Sharon frowned. "Why didn't she tell me?"

The man grinned insincerely. "She didn't want to bother you since you were having fun."

With her big eyes wide open, Sharon put her hands on her hips and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

She had been standing under the sun for almost half an hour that her fair and tender face turned bright red and there was a layer of sweat on her forehead and the tip of her small nose. Her eyes on her small face were round and big like gemstones.

Thinking of what Melody said to him, Stanley stood up and came to Sharon. He looked down at her with his mysterious dark eyes.

His gaze sent chills down Sharon's spine. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

She opened her mouth and was about to speak when he suddenly raised his hand and nudged her head, saying softly, "Silly girl!"

She was indeed silly for not telling him about the misunderstanding and keeping everything inside her.

Sharon stared at him in disbelief.

"Let's go!"

He pulled her by the wrist and walked toward the exit.

"Hey!" Sharon struggled. "What are you doing? Let go!"

Stanley turned his head and gave her a fierce look. "If you don't keep quiet, I'll make love to you right here!"

M-Make love...

Sharon stared at the beast- like man in astonishment and did not dare to make a sound. Her small face was full of resentment.

Jackson looked at them and shook his head. Stanley really didn't know how to treat women nicely.

Jimmy, who had finished the shooting, walked over from a distance. Looking at the couple who was tugging each other, he shouted in confusion, "Stanley, don't you and Sharon want to have dinner with us here?"

Stanley left without looking back.

Hearing the word "dinner", Sharon's eyes lit up and tried to get rid of his hand. "Hey, I'm hungry. Let's have dinner first, and we'll leave after that!"

He ignored her and continued walking, gripping her hand tightly.

Sharon gritted her teeth and went berserk behind him!

In the Hummer.

As soon as they got in the car, Stanley turned on the air conditioner. The cold air began to spread throughout the carriage, and soon the temperature began to drop.

Sharon was very hot and her heart was beating violently due to the heat, but as it was getting cold, she closed her eyes and enjoyed the cold air comfortably.

Stanley frowned in dismay as he looked at her slightly sunburned face. "Couldn't you stand in a shady spot just now?"

Sharon leaned back on the chair with her eyes closed and said without hesitation, "Jackson was teaching me how to shoot. How could I stand alone in the shade and watch him basking in the

sun?"

Stanley was extremely angry, but he laughed instead. "How can you compare yourself with him? He is a man who has been living a hazardous life all these years. Of course, he can stand a little sun!"

"Hey, what does Jackson do for a living?" Sharon was interested in this topic.

Stanley glanced at her from the corner of his eyes and intimidated her. "He is an assassin, the one who kills without batting an eye and is very quick and ruthless. You may still be alive now, but in the next second, you'll be dead!"

Sharon's heart skipped a beat and she swallowed nervously.

"1-1 don't think so. He looks so righteous and unyielding. He doesn't look like a murderous devil at all!"

Seeing that her face was pale, Stanley smiled satisfactorily and continued to tease her, "You'd better keep a distance from him. He killed many people, and many people wanted to kill him. Maybe one day, those terrorists will take you as his accomplice and kidnap you!"

Sharon's mouth turned white this time, and there was a little tremor in her voice. "Don't scare me. I'm very timid. I don't like being scared."

He snorted. Ignoring her, he closed his eyes and began to rest, but the corners of his mouth curled upward.

After a long while, Sharon rubbed her arms as the temperature inside the car was getting colder and colder and the man behind the wheels had no intention to move. "Hey, what are we doing here?"

Stanley opened his eyes and threw a sideways glance at her. "Are you feeling cooler now?"

Sharon sniffed and nodded. "The air conditioning is blasting at full force. Of course, I'm..."

She paused and blinked her big eyes, then turned her head and looked at his handsome facial features in disbelief. "Did you take me to the car because you want me to have some cold air?"

Stanley did not look at her, but there was a trace of uneasiness in his eyes. "Don't overthink. I feel that it's too hot outside."

Of course, Sharon didn't believe him, but she also didn't expect that he had such a delicate side.

She was really hot just now and started to get irritated due to the heat, but he didn't say anything and directly brought her here to cool her down.

No matter what he did, he was always a man of action and would never talk the walk, even when he was doing something nice to others.

This made Sharon a little moved.

Her heart was fluttering. She bit her lip, and her face was inexplicably a little hot. "I'm not hot anymore..."

Before she could finish her words, there was a sound of growling.

His teasing eyes flew over to her. Sharon touched her belly with her hand, and her face turned redder. "Jimmy took me here before lunch. I'm hungry."

She said pitifully that she was hungry, which look extraordinarily adorable.

"I'll take you to dinner," Stanley blurted out.

Hearing that they would go to eat, Sharon's eyes lit up. "Okay, okay."

The corners of Stanley's mouth curled into a smile. Just as he was about to start the car and leave, his phone suddenly rang.

He switched off the engine and took his phone out to have a look.

It was Shawn.

Last time when they parted in Grasmere, he hadn't been in touch with him for a while. He didn't expect that he would call at this time.

After thinking for a while, Stanley said, "I'll take a phone call. There's water. Drink if you're thirsty."

Sharon nodded, gesturing him to go ahead with his work.

"Hello," Stanley answered the phone. His sturdy little arms were casually placed on the steering wheel, and he said in a low and slightly amusing voice, "Did you find your treasure?"

This was the topic they talked about last time.

Shawn laughed in a low voice. "If it's so easy to find it, it's not a treasure. Anyway, I gained something on this trip to Beachmarsh City. I believe that I will soon return to the way we used to be with her."

"Congratulations."

"Thank you. I call you today to tell you that I'll finish my work in a few days' time. Let's meet up when I'm free."

"No problem. I'll treat you dinner." Stanley nodded. "When exactly?"

"I am not sure. I'll contact you when I'm free."

"OK."

Shawn seemed to have something else to say, so Stanley said directly, "Is there something you can't talk about?"

Shawn laughed. "No, we can talk about it, but I don't know how to start."

Stanley raised his eyebrows. "I didn't know that you, the head of the Lewis Family, will be like this."

"Beachmarsh City is your place. I only have a sole purpose for coming here, and that is to look for my treasure. When the time comes, I may have to trouble you to use your connections to check somethings out."

Shawn had been using his connections to find Sharon these days, but it was a little difficult.

Stanley said, "It's just a small matter. I can help you whenever I can..."

"Ah!"

Sharon suddenly shouted in a low voice.

Stanley immediately turned his head and saw that Sharon in the front passenger seat wanted to drink water, but when she opened the bottle, the water accidentally splashed on her and made her look rather miserable.

Stanley frowned and took the bottle from her hand. Sharon looked apologetic and embarrassed. "Why are you looking at me like this? I didn't do it on purpose."

"Stupid!"

He scolded her in a low voice, but he didn't sound like he was blaming her at all.

It was indeed her fault, but she felt rather uncomfortable to hear him chiding her, so she mumbled under her breath because she didn't dare to talk back to him, "Why are you so fierce? You haven't done anything wrong?"

She lowered her head to wipe the water stains on her body. There were a few strands of hair sticking on her cheeks. Her expression when she was angry but aggrieved was somewhat cute.

Stanley couldn't help but raise his hand to pat her head, saying said in a caring tone, "Now it's you who did the wrong thing. How dare you talk back to me, huh?"

Sharon rolled her eyes at him and said, "You are still on the phone!"

When Stanley came to his senses, he remembered that he was still holding a mobile phone in his hand, and the screen also showed that the call was still connected.
