Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 359

Ariah felt that her life would be at stake tonight if Jimmy continued kissing her as if he had gone mad. Her lips felt numb and painful as she was surrounded by a strong, maddening aura.

What should she do? She could not push him away.

Neither could she flee from the spot.

If this had happened in the past, Ariah would have succumbed to it. However, the situation now was different as she had been infuriated by Jimmy's unforgivable betrayal. If she submitted to him, then her dignity would be trampled by him.

Thinking of this, Ariah moved her mouth and took the initiative to kiss him back in an aggressive manner.

This proactive kiss made Jimmy's body stiffen for a moment, and he was soon surrounded by huge ecstasy. Every time he met her in the past, she had always ridiculed him with sarcastic words or showed him her sullen face. Now that she was kissing him willingly, didn't that mean...

Upon regaining his senses, he kissed her even harder with excitement.

The next second.

"Mmm..."

A groan came out of Jimmy's throat and his face turned livid. After letting go of her, he wiped his mouth and was shocked to see a tint of bright red on his hand.

How dare she bite him?!

He must not let her go so easily this time.

Angered, he jumped up and tried to grab her. When he looked up, the blood in his body froze when he saw her under the cold moonlight on the balcony.

Holding a fruit knife from the coffee table, Ariah was staring at him with a glacial expression.

As his lips trembled a little, he asked, "W-What's wrong with you? Come back here now!"

Stolidly, she responded, one word at a time, "Jimmy, if you still want to force me, I'll just die before you today!"

As she spoke, she raised the blade in her hand.

His head was buzzing, and the veins of his forehead were throbbing. Be it anger or lust, all emotions fled from his mind at this moment. "Hold on!" His voice was hoarse as if it had been tom apart as he shouted.

However, his words seemed to fall on deaf ears, for she soon raised her hand and swung her knife down.

"Ariah!"

Jimmy roared, and his eyes were red with anger. He instantly sprinted forward and swooped down like a leopard.

"Bang!"

The knife dropped from her hand as he rushed over and pounced on her. Unfortunately, the sharp blade still injured her neck, which caused blood to ooze out of her skin.

As Jimmy forcefully pulled her into the living room, his face was so dark that he almost wanted to kill her. Trembling, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and turned on the flashlight so that he

could check on her neck. Before he looked at it properly, he gasped out of fear.

"Sit still!"

Following a furious roar, he turned around to look for the medicinal kit. Since he could not see the path clearly in the dark, he got so angry that he immediately kicked the blocking chair aside. In a stern voice, he asked, "Where is the medicinal?"

Nonetheless, Ariah was in so much pain that she could hardly speak.

"Did you hear me?" He was gripped by fury as he asked gruffly.

Despite the soreness of her injury, she still raised her hand and spat out a few words with difficulty, "The second drawer in the lower left corner."

Once he found the first- aid kit, he quickly turned to her. His temper was unstable, so he failed to open the kit for the first few times and only managed to open it after cursing for a while in a low voice.

He then took out a bottle of antiseptic disinfectant, a cotton swab, and some gauze to stop the bleeding. With a cold face, he ordered, "Raise your head now!"

The deep voice sounded cold to a certain extent.

Pursing her lips, she said, "I can do it by myself..."

"Do you believe that I'll kill you myself?" Jimmy felt the veins on his forehead were throbbing more violently, and the blood in his body was boiling. Nevertheless, his face still looked indifferent as he yelled, "Raise your head!"

Suppressing her displeasure, she remained silent and did as he said.

Under the faint light of the mobile phone, he checked her neck with a frown. Fortunately, it was just a minor cut instead of a deep wound. If the blade was a little sharper and had cut the major artery, she would have been bleeding profusely.

That was too scary to imagine.

With a frown, he made plain his aversion to what she had done. He then shoved the phone into her hand and said glacially, "Hold it while I apply the medication!"

Glancing at him, she didn't utter anything. Instead, she looked at herself through the phone camera when he was tending to her injury.

When he accidentally pressed on the injured part, she immediately hissed in pain.

It hurt her very much.

In response, his hand stopped as he taunted, "You still know what pain is? Why didn't you think of it when you hurt yourself just now?"

In spite of the harsh words, his hand movements had become much gentler.

Ariah's eyes turned red from the pain. With her head raised, she could not see his tightly furrowed brows and could only hear his sarcastic remarks. Upon straightening her neck, she said, "Would I have attempted to hurt myself if you didn't force me?"

Instantly, he was rendered speechless.

She was a little too vicious. Jimmy had never seen Ariah such a strong personality of hers. In the past few years, she had always been intelligent, beautiful, and obedient. Never had she quarreled with him.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

It was the first time he had found her this aggressive.

He was thus literally stunned.

She was so stubborn that even he had no way to deal with her.

Without uttering a word, Jimmy bandaged her wound very carefully.

The atmosphere was awkward for a moment.

After a long time, he finished dressing her injury and threw the blood- stained cotton swab into the trash can. "Hope this will help for now. You will need to go to the hospital tomorrow morning," he said.

Ariah remained silent as she raised her hand to touch it. Because of the wave of discomfort and pain, she could not help but frown.

"You deserve it!" Having adapted to the darkness, he noticed her deep furrows due to pain. However, as he recalled how she had been attempting to hurt herself, he cursed aloofly, "You have only yourself to blame!"

Rolling her eyes, she decided not to bother him.

Just as he was about to speak, there was a sudden flash of light in the dark. The blinding light prompted him to close his eyes.

Power was back on.

It was impossible for the blackout to last for a long time. As expected, it took less than half an hour for the lights to shine again in the room.

After glancing at the man beside her, she frowned and asked, "Why are you still here?"

As he leaned back, his heavily-built body fell into the soft couch. While placing his long legs on the tea table, he took out the cigarette from his pocket and lit it. After he took a long drag on the cigarette, he responded lazily, "When did I say I would be leaving?"

"You..."

Just when she was about to blow a gasket, she accidentally tore her neck muscle, which caused her to hiss in so much pain that she knitted her brows very tightly. There was not a trace of vitality on her pale face, which still looked beautiful in his eyes.

As his Adam's apple was bobbing up and down, his deep gaze landed on her visage. It had been a long time since he last slept with her. His heart was tickled by her delicate face no matter from which angle he was looking at her.
