Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 315

Looking at the photo, Stanley was certain that it was him and Sharon. He was wearing a suit, while Sharon was wearing a strapless black dress, which made her figure stood out.

As he stared at the photo, memories flashed across his mind again... This time, it was a man and a woman strolling in the mall. Then, there was a cinema and the two were having ice cream...

Suddenly, he realized that the couple was Sharon and him...

Just as he wanted to look closely, a headache overtook him again. He dropped the album and pounded his head, groaning in discomfort.

"Dad-daddy?"

Hearing Sadie's soft voice, Stanley looked up and realized that he had scared the kids, while Sharon was holding the kids in her arms and looked at him in shock.

He then touched his forehead, and it was covered in sweat. Quickly, he got up from the sofa and to take a bottle of pills from his jacket's pocket. After taking the pill, only then did his headache slowly ease up.

Taking a few deep breaths, he looked at the three with a bitter smile. "Sorry, I must have scared you."

However, Sharon just turned to the kids and said in a trembling voice, "You two haven't taken a bath yet. Let's go shower now."

Upon saying that, she took the twins to the bathroom, while Stanley, knowing that he must have frightened them, stood where he was and sighed.

A few minutes later, Sharon came out of the bathroom and saw Stanley standing on the balcony. She hesitated for a moment and whispered, "The kids are very curious about what happened to you just now. Could you explain it to them later?"

Hearing her voice, Stanley turned around and walked towards her. "Sure."

He came to her and said, "Do you still remember that back in Allgate City, I told you I don't want to recall the past?"

Sharon glanced at him and nodded.

"That's because I have a headache. The more I try to recall the past, the more painful my head gets." Stanley massaged his eyebrows and continued, "Just now looking at the photos, the headache suddenly came back again..."

Sharon didn't know that he had such a problem and for a moment, she couldn't find her voice. "What... did the doctor say?"

"It's the sequela from having my head hit. It was even more painful when I just woke up four years ago. However, the doctor said that the pain will ease as time passes."

"What are the pills you took just now?"

"Well, they can relieve the pain. I only take them if I really can't stand the headache."

Sharon fell silent. Her lips were tightly pressed, and she clenched her hands into fists. Her heart was welled up with pain because she knew Stanley too well. He used to be a soldier, and he could undergo the pain that an average man couldn't endure. Therefore, it must be really painful just now that he had no choice but to take the drugs.

All of a sudden, Sharon didn't want him to remember the past anymore. If recalling the past was a suffering to him... then she had rather he stayed like this.

Upon making up her mind, she turned around to pick up the album.

Stanley frowned at her actions. "What's wrong?"

"Well, this is the culprit that gave you a headache, so I better keep it away."

Stanley was stunned, then his eyes were filled with delight and he walked towards Sharon, who just happened to turn around and almost bumped into him. Holding her hand, he comforted, "It's okay. You don't have to keep it away. My head doesn't hurt anymore."

As he spoke, he took the album out of her hand and turned to the last page, pointing to the photos. "Is this us?" NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Sharon looked at the photos and immediately understood why Sadie had said that it was a wedding photo. Sadie must have mistaken her strapless dress as a wedding dress...

"Ahem, yes." Sharon nodded.

The photos were taken on their first and only date. She was dressed beautifully and they had a date like normal couples. They even watched a movie together, although Stanley kept playing with her hair and squeezed her hand as if he found her more interesting than the movie. Nevertheless, it was a good date.

Meanwhile, glancing at Sharon, Stanley realized that her eyelashes were really long and thick, whereas her red lips were moist and there was a faint scent on her body.

He was a little absent-minded and muttered to himself, "Gorgeous."

Confused, Sharon looked up at him. "What?"

She looked quite innocent. Stanley felt a little awkward at her sight and cleared his throat, pointing to the photo. "I mean, you look very gorgeous in the dress."

"Oh." Sharon replied, "You bought them for me, both the dress and the shoes."

Stanley couldn't help but laugh. "Looks like I've got a good sense in fashion."

Once again, Sharon was speechless.

What a thick-skinned man.

Then, Sharon found herself sandwiched between Stanley and the sofa, and she was almost being circled in his arms. When she raised her eyes, she could see his sexy Adam's apple, which moved as he spoke.

Immediately, Sharon blushed and felt a little hard to breathe. "Why are you so close to me? Get out of the way. I'm gonna bathe the kids..."

Stanley, on the other hand, stood still, reluctant to part with her.

Seeing that, Sharon pushed him away and wanted to sneak out of his arms. However, she had overestimated her agility as she hit the sofa's armrest and was about to plunge to the ground.

"Be careful!"

Promptly, Stanley reached out to pull her, but he was unsuccessful as both of them collapsed on the sofa, and then, something unexpected happened.

Their lips were met against each other just like that.

Sharon was dumbstruck. After gaining her senses, she quickly pushed him away. However, Stanley wasn't too happy to see her being so eager to leave. With a groan, he seized her with one hand and kissed her fiercely.

Sensing the kiss, Sharon froze.

Right then, two bantering voices suddenly sounded behind them. "Tsk, tsk, what a passionate kiss!"

Startled, Sharon quickly shoved Stanley away, looked up in the direction of the voice, and was dumbfounded. "Why... are you two here?"

It was Jimmy and Ariah.

How long had they been here?

Ariah swirled the keys around her finger. "Have you forgotten that I have a set of the spare keys?" As she said that, she looked back and forth between the two of them and smirked. "It seems that you two are really enjoying yourselves. Jeez, you didn't even hear me unlocking the door. Oh, young people are so energetic."
