Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 308

Contrary to the first journal that gave a lively vibe, this last one held a sense of sadness in it.

There were traces of dried marks of tears on this diary, where the ink was smeared.

"They said that you were dead, but I don't believe it. I won't stop until I find you!"

"Today, Jimmy found a body, whose face had been swollen. No one could tell if it was you, but I was pretty sure it wasn't you."

"I can feel the babies moving today. They must be missing you too. By the way, it's twins. But the doctor said that I'm too thin. If it goes on like this, they could end up being malnourished. So I must eat more even if I don't feel like eating anything!"

"Half a year has passed. Stanley, where are you? I've been looking for you every day. I'm almost in despair."

"It's been a year and a half. Are you really dead? Why don't you give me a hint in the dreams, so I can know if you're doing well in the afterworld?"

"The twins are one year old now, and the boy learns to speak earlier than his younger sister. He called 'daddy' today, without anyone teaching him that."

"It's been three years. Stanley, are you really dead?"

"Hubby, I miss you so much..."

Stanley's hand trembled when he saw the last sentence, and his breathing became heavy. That woman was clearly just a stranger to him right now, but why did he feel his heart ached when he read these?

What was she like when she wrote these down at that time?

Judging by the smeared ink, she must be crying really hard.

If he hadn't lost his memory, what was he supposed to feel when he saw these journals?

Around 5 o'clock, Sharon got off work on time and hurriedly went to the kindergarten. The children had long finished school. However, she had no choice but to ask the teacher to take care of them for a while.

It had only been a few days since the kids started school. After they were adjusted to school, Sharon planned to hire a nanny to help take care of them, so she wouldn't have to make it to and fro between the company and the school with much difficulty.

It was Miss Clifton who took care of the two children for her. When she saw Sharon coming over, she was shocked though. "Miss Cruz, why are you here?"

Sharon was taken aback. "Miss Clifton, I'm here to pick up the children."

Immediately, Miss Clifton's expression changed. "But the twins have been taken away!"

"What? Are you kidding me? I didn't ask anyone to pick up the twins today!"

Miss Clifton's face suddenly turned pale. "Mi-Miss Cruz, there's a man who claimed to be the children's father, and the twins seemed to know him. Sadie even went up to hug him. So I thought he was the father of the twins..."

Father?

Stanley?

He came to pick up the children?

Immediately, Sharon took out her phone and called him. As soon as the call was connected, she asked, "Stanley, are the kids with you?"

With a deep yet mellow voice, Stanley replied, "Yeah." Then, Sadie's voice was faintly heard in the background, saying, "Daddy, I want to eat ice cream."

Only then did Sharon's nerves ease down a bit, but still, she was so angry that her hands were trembling. In a cold voice, she asked, "Where are you guys now?"

Stanley gave her an address and she asked him to wait there. Hanging up the phone, she smiled apologetically to the teacher. "I'm sorry, Miss Clifton. The children are all right and they're with their father now. It seemed that he forgot to inform me before picking them up. I'm so sorry to cause you to worry."

Miss Clifton was still in shock. "No worries. Thank goodness everything's alright... But, how could your husband not tell you beforehand..." Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Sharon continued to apologize. Fortunately, the teacher didn't argue with her.

After that, she went to the location where Stanley told her. From a distance, she could see him and the kids sitting in a bubble tea shop. With a gloomy face, she went up and gave him a tight slap.

The slap had directly knocked him out of his mind.

And the kids were taken aback too.

Sharon stared at the man in front of her, panting. Meanwhile, Stanley came back to his senses and his gaze suddenly turned sharp at Sharon. "How dare you hit me?"

"You deserve it!" Sharon's eyes were filled with anger. "Why did you take the children away without my permission?"

It turned out that she slapped him because of this matter... Stanley's gaze then slowly softened, and he seemed to be muttering to himself, "But no one has ever beaten me..."

She was the first one to do this, and it was quite a slap.

Massaging his numb face, Stanley glanced at the angry woman. "I called you. Didn't you get it?"

Sharon was furious. "Liar! I didn't get your call!"

Stanley frowned. "Didn't your colleague tell you?"

"What?"

"I called you and your colleague answered the phone. I asked him to tell you that I'll pick up the twins first, and you can call me up when you get off work."

Hearing that, Sharon was stunned. Before getting off work, she had gone to the bathroom. Could it be that Stanley had called at that time?

Biting her lip, she fell silent.

Stanley snorted. "How can you just hit me without asking first? Besides, you've frightened the kids."

Sharon took a look at the children and saw that they were indeed terrified. They just sat there quietly, not daring to move.

Immediately, her heart tightened and she wanted to explain, but couldn't utter a word. Indeed, she had acted impulsively just now, but she was just too frustrated with Stanley!

"Seamus, Sadie...."

Sharon felt quite guilty to have the children see her beating their father.

Because she could give them a sense that she was an unqualified mother, and even made them feel she was bad-tempered, thus making them afraid of her.

This was not what she wanted to see.

Thinking that, she was so annoyed at herself.

"Sweeties, I was..."

"Your mom was playing with me." Just as she didn't know how to explain, Stanley suddenly helped her out lazily.

Sharon cast a grateful glance at him.

Looking at the two children who were still puzzled, Stanley curled up his lips as he said slowly, "I know you guys don't believe me. What about this? I can prove it by hitting her back, and that way, you'll know this is just a game and that she isn't mad at all."

What?

Sharon widened her eyes and began to suspect that he was playing a trick to take revenge on her!
