Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 265

Sharon's little thought had been exposed by Stanley, which made her feel embarrassed. With that, she straightened her neck and denied, "No!"

"You're not competing for favor with the baby, right?"

"Stanley, you..."

Why was this guy so annoying? Revealing her little secret was fun for him, huh?

"I love the baby in your belly very much, but on one condition. You have to be the mother of the child. Only then, I'll give all my love to him or her."

Sharon's emotions were currently exploding. Stanley's magnetic and pleasant voice caused her anger to dissipate.

With a reddened face, she opened her mouth but could not say a word.

"Also, there's no need to compete for favor with our future children. Even if I love them, it won't be as much as the love I have for you. Sharon, I love you."

At the moment, the two of them were so far apart, as they were on different ends of the world. However, Sharon felt as if he was right by her. Listening to his low and deep voice beside her ear, she felt her heart tingling. Her small face flushed scarlet, and her chest was heaving.

Clutching her heart, Sharon almost could not to hold on any longer.

As the other side was silent, Stanley frowned and checked the phone. It showed that they were still on the line, but why was there no response from the other side?

This was the first time he confessed his love to her.

The first time he clearly said that he loved her, but did she react this way?

"Ahem." Stanley cleared his throat and frowned. "Sharon?"

It took Sharon a long time to find her voice. "Yes? I'm here."

"Why are you panting?" When he heard it, he immediately asked nervously, "Are you not feeling well?"

"No, no!" Sharon bit her lip while her hand was sweating, holding the phone. How could she tell him? It was because he said that he loved her, so she was so excited.

If she said it, he would definitely laugh at her.

"Are you sure you're alright? I have already told Howard before I left. If anything happens, you just need to give him a call and he will go to you at once."

"I'm really fine! Don't get so nervous."

It was true that he was too nervous. As a man, he couldn't get pregnant, and he felt that the life of a pregnant woman was not easy. Her belly would grow bigger and bigger, just like a ball, and the sight of it was worrying.

Now, Sharon's stomach was still flat, but he's already super nervous. At the time of five or six months, even he himself thought he might be nervous to the point of being psychotic.

"How are you doing over there? Your mother is fine, isn't she?" asked Sharon, as she thought that since he was able to talk to her, his mother's health condition should still be optimistic.

The other side was silent for a long time before she heard a reply, "She's in a stable condition."

"That's good, that's good." Sharon let out a sigh of relief.

"Sharon..."

Stanley suddenly called her name.

"Yes," Sharon immediately replied, "What's the matter? I'm here."

"I'm wondering that if I did something wrong, would you forgive me?"

"Well, it depends on what it was. If it's not a particularly bad thing, then I'll just close an eye and pretend that I do not know." Sharon did not understand why he had suddenly asked these questions. She felt suspicious. "What's wrong with you? Have you done something wrong to me?"

Stanley chuckled, "Don't worry. I'm just asking. Don't take it to heart."

"Okay." Sharon thought of another thing. "By the way, I went to school today."

"Umm-Hmm."

"I'm going to listen to you and take care of the baby at home. Am I a good girl?"

Begging for praise?

The corners of Stanley's mouth curled up. "Yes, you are. Keep being good from now on. Don't let me worry about you."

Hearing that, Sharon curled her lips. He spoke as if she had never been obedient before.

"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing," Sharon told him about the encounter with Liam at the school entrance. After that, she frowned. "It seems that he doesn't know anything about you getting shot at all. Of course, he may be just faking it and trying to deny everything!"

Thinking for a moment, Stanley also felt that there was something strange about this matter. Since he returned to the country, he had asked his men to investigate the case, but the person who shot him did not leave any obvious evidence in the scene, so he had not got any results out of it.

If it wasn't Liam, who would have wanted his life?

Stanley pinched his eyebrows and glanced at the ward. This matter could be discussed later. With that, Stanley said, "Sharon, Mom wants to see you. I'll make a video call."

"Huh?" Hearing this, Sharon instantly grew nervous. "I... Don't start the call yet. I need to get changed." All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Stanley didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "We're a family. You don't need to feel awkward."

"I don't care. I have to look decent. Don't start first!"

This was her first time meeting her mother-in-law, so she had to look her best! The first impression was the most important that she could not let her mother-in-law think she was a sloppy person.

The call of the phone dialing through sounded, followed by the sound of someone changing clothes. Stanley listened patiently. For the first time, he felt that the voice of someone changing clothes on the phone was so moving.

Not long after, there was a noise on the other side of the phone. "I'm done! You can start the call."

Stanley started the video call, and Sharon's delicate and pretty little face appeared in the video. Her wet hair from the shower was casually pulled back behind her head while a few strands of hair hung lazily by her cheeks. This kind of charm added a touch of sexiness to her tender little face.

Stanley's gaze darkened, then he took the phone into the ward.

Sharon's palms were sweating. She had been very happy ever since the last call she had with Ember. This time, she was finally able to talk to her again, and it was a video call.

But when the figure appeared in the video, Sharon was stunned. She was rooted to the spot and could not say a word.

She knew that Stanley's mother was sick, and she thought that she might look a little haggard, but she did not expect her to be so skinny now.

Ember's thin and weak body almost sank into the soft bed. Her face was pale, and there were all kinds of tubes on her body. She looked as if she had no breath.

However, Ember was delighted, and she was smiling. She looked at Sharon and smiled happily. She heard Ember call out her name softly, "Sharon..."

A simple voice caused Sharon's eyes to heat up. She endured the tears and replied, and naturally calling out, "Mom, I'm Sharon."

Ember was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, "Good girl, can you see me?" "Yes." Sharon looked at the person in the video and smiled. "You're beautiful. You've even outshone me."

Ember was amused by what she said, which made her happy, and her face seemed to have some liveliness and redness. She glanced at Stanley, who was sitting next to her, "You've never told me that my daughter-in-law has such a sweet mouth."

Stanley pressed the space between his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth curved up, and he chuckled without saying anything.

The video was a bit laggy. Sharon did not know what they said and was a bit anxious, "Hey, are you guys saying anything bad about me?"

Feeling anxious, Sharon walked back and forth in the room with her phone. Finally, she found that the video returned to normal by the window.
