Chapter 291
Embarrassed, Sharon stared at the door of the bathroom. When she saw Stanley enter with a dark face, she knew that he must have been angry at her. With a flushed face, Sharon sighed and silently cursed herself in her heart...
Hesitantly, she stood at the bathroom door, but just as she was about to knock on the door, the door opened.
Then, she saw him walking out of the bathroom, with his bath towel out of sight, and he was wearing beige loungewear. His expression was calm, and she could not guess what he was thinking about.
Meanwhile, Stanley headed straight out of the room and didn't even look at her.
However, she immediately trailed along after she stuck her tongue out cheekily at him.
Once they headed downstairs, Sharon hurriedly said, "There was some meat in the refrigerator, and I remember you used to love eating meat, but not fish, so I prepared braised meat for you. Would you like to try it?" It was a fact that he really liked eating meat, and he didn't like eating fish...
As Stanley heard those words, he glanced at her and wondered how did she even know what he liked?
"Am I supposed to eat so much meat in the middle of the night?" As he looked at the meat she prepared, his eyebrows raised.
When Sharon heard his question, she was dumbfounded. "Oh, then why don't you have some porridge?"
Those words left him nothing to say.
Without saying anything else, Stanley sat down at the dining table, picked up his cutlery, and tasted the food she had prepared... The taste was not bad.
Just then, Sharon sat down across from him, but her stomach had growled twice before she could speak. As soon as Stanley heard that sound, he raised his eyes to look at her, whereas Sharon embarrassedly placed her hand on her stomach. "I haven't had my dinner yet..."
However, when Stanley heard her answer, his eyes narrowed. "You went to drink without having dinner?"
Was this woman trying to ruin her stomach?
With a deep look at him, she replied, "I didn't have much appetite for dinner."
It was because last night she had made an appointment to meet up with him today at noon, but he didn't show up even after she waited for him for a long time, so she was quite upset about it...
The moment Stanley heard her answer, his eyes drooped, and he didn't say a word.
Seeing him acting like this, Sharon directly asked, "Why didn't you come and meet me?"
"What?"
"Are you still trying to play dumb? We've made an appointment, but why didn't you come?"
It was only now that Stanley glanced at her and said, "It was you who made the appointment. I didn't agree to it."
That answer made Sharon at a loss for words.
At that moment, Sharon clenched her teeth and decided to forget about it since he had lost his memory. Now that he's the big boss, she would not argue with him! However, in her heart, she still
felt sad, so she could only turn the non-happy feelings in her stomach into her appetite for food. After she ate two bowls of rice in one go, she felt much better.
After they finished their meal, Stanley brought up the main topic. "Now that we've eaten and sobered up, is it time for you to head home?" When Sharon heard his question, she was startled because she didn't think that he would still remember that. In her heart, she felt a bit wronged. "Are you really going to chase me away?"
Although her soft and sad voice made him feel sorry for her, Stanley's face then suddenly turned cold when he remembered something. "I'm a man with a fiancee. It's not good for Ayana if I were to live in the same room with another woman. So Miss Cruz, please, let me send you home."
In fact, Sharon knew he was a dedicated person. Four years ago, when they were still together, he already had such wealth and status, but he didn't even bother about other women who tried to come close to him, although many tried.
Now, even when he had lost his memory, he was still loyal to Ayana... At that moment, Sharon didn't know if she should be angry at him or praise him for his dedication!
Thinking about how he had happily spent the past four years with Ayana and forgotten all about her, Sharon felt pain, as if her heart had been stabbed by a knife.
The words of Stanley made her felt extremely upset because he had never treated her with such a cold attitude. "Do you really have to drive me away?"
When Stanley looked into her red eyes, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. However, that uncomfortable feeling made him feel irritated because she was just a stranger to him, and there was no need for him to do this. As he thought about it, his face became even colder, Tve said everything clearly. If you don't like it, there's nothing I can do anything about it."
Sniffled, Sharon answered, "Alright, I'll go."
After hearing her answer, Stanley nodded and said, "Let's go. I'll send you off..."
"No need." As Sharon stopped him, she uttered, "I can walk on my own." In her heart, she was rather angry at how heartless Stanley was to her. "You don't have to see me off."
After that, she turned and strode away, then slammed the door with a bang.
Stunned for a moment, Stanley looked at the closed door and the living room that fell into silence. At that moment, he remained frozen at the spot, and it took a long time for him to regain his senses. Although he wanted to run after her, in the end, he still managed to hold it in.
Since he didn't want to know about the past and the memories that he had, why did he have to get so close to this woman?
Thinking of this, he felt at ease and went upstairs.
But when he returned to his bedroom, he kept tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. It was late at night, and she was a woman. The thought of her walking home alone was worrying as he didn't know if something would happen to her...
Then he denied his worries, as the safety of Beachmarsh was relatively safe. It was only 11 o'clock pm now, and it was still early, so she should be fine.
As he reminded himself about this, he closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.
The next morning, Stanley woke up and saw in the mirror that his face was very pale and he seemed exhausted. In fact, he didn't sleep well the entire night. Throughout the night, he had multiple bad dreams, and he was worried sick. Even now, his head was throbbing with pain...
However, he felt much better after he took his medication.
After washing up, Stanley massaged his temple and opened the door. With a bang, a ball of something fell on his leg when he opened the door.
Stunned, Stanley lowered his head and looked over, as he felt a jolt in his heart.
As Sharon crawled up from the ground in a daze and saw him in front of her, she yawned. "You're awake?"
Still in shock, Stanley looked at her and asked, "You... have been staying here all night?"
As Sharon nodded, she answered yes.
"You just slept outside the door for the whole night?"
"That's right."
Suddenly, Stanley became furious and yelled, "Crazy!"
However, Sharon was startled, as she did not expect that he would lose his temper so suddenly. After she spent the night trying to suppress the grievances that she had suffered last night, her feelings suddenly rose now that she was being yelled at. With her big black and teary eyes looking at him in panic, her voice was hoarse as she said, "I know you didn't want to see me, so I slept outside your door for the whole night, and didn't dare to disturb you. I have done what I could do." Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Stanley, what else do you want me to do?"
The last sentence of hers was soft, but it seemed to have carried an incomparable amount of power as it went through his heart and soul. It struck his heart as if it had cut through the distance of time and space. Meanwhile, Stanley's mind buzzed as he stared at her for a moment.
The moment she called his name just now, there was an incomparably familiar feeling that enveloped him. It was as if there was someone in the past who often called him Stanley like the way she did...
All this while, Ayana had always addressed him as 'Mars', and other people had always addressed him as 'Mr. Warner'. However, he had never felt anything when they addressed him that way, but when she called his name like that, his heart subconsciously trembled.
That kind of feeling was the memory in his body that could not be erased.
At that moment, Stanley's Adam's apple twitched, and his gaze instantly stared at Sharon, who was standing in front of him. As his thin lips slightly parted, he spat out a sentence, "I'm not yelling at you. I just feel that it's not good for the body of a woman like you to sleep outside like this for an entire night..."
