Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 373

At that moment, Ariah's expression suddenly darkened.

"Too bad he doesn't know that you were doing that for his sake, and he even thought that you took the bullet for me because we had a secret relationship." The gaze of Ricco on Ariah deepened. "It's been so long since I met such a passionate woman. Remember to inform me when you've really had a divorce with him. How about we get married then?"

Pft-

The next second, Ariah burst out laughing.

When Ricco saw her laughing, he shrugged. "By the way, I forgot to tell you something."

With her eyebrows raised, she asked, "Is there anything else?"

"The person who I fought with before I met you was your ex-husband."

What?

The words from Ricco left Ariah dumbfounded.

Earlier, he just told her that the person who was beaten by him was now treated by the doctor...

"Hey, what did you do to him?" The thought of it made Ariah so anxious that she wanted to get up, but she ended up accidentally ripping her wound apart, and she was in so much pain that she hissed.

"Don't worry, he will not die." Meanwhile, Ricco answered and turned to leave.

As soon as he opened the door, he almost bumped into the person who was standing outside.

With a smile, Ricco looked over at Sharon. However, she immediately took two steps back and pulled away from him.

The fierce gaze from him made her slightly embarrassed.

It was indeed wrong of her to eavesdrop, but she heard nothing. So it shouldn't be considered eavesdropping?

"Do you want to know what I told Ariah? Hmm, I'm free tonight, so why don't we meet up for dinner and talk about it?"

This person... was really frivolous.

Immediately, Sharon glared at him and led her two children into the ward. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

As soon as Sharon entered the room, she was startled. "Ariah, what's wrong with you?"

With the frown on Ariah's face and her lips paled, she seemed quite miserable.

"I'm fine. It's just that I accidentally ripped my wound apart, and it hurts a little."

"I'll go get the doctor."

"Sure."

It was so painful that Ariah couldn't take it anymore, so she nodded her head in agreement.

Before he could ring the bell on the side of the bed, Sharon rushed straight to the nurse's corner to get help. When she opened the door, she saw two men coming from a distance.

Hurriedly, Sharon walked over and was taken aback when she saw the injury on Jimmy's face.

"What happened?" The moment Stanley saw that her expression was not well, he frowned.

"I'm fine." Instantly, Sharon came to her senses and said, "Jimmy, go in and take care of Ariah. I'm going to get a doctor. Her wound seems to be bleeding."

When Jimmy her heard words, his expression changed immediately as he strode to the ward.

Meanwhile, Stanley took her hand and walked toward the doctor's office. "Where are the children?"

"They are keeping Ariah company." At that moment, Sharon tried to look around, but she did not see the man who made her feel uncomfortable. Perhaps he had already left. After she thought about it, she told Stanley about what had just happened. "There was a man who came over to have a chat with Ariah in the ward for a long time. That person made me feel very uncomfortable."

At that moment, Stanley stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at her. With a frown, he asked, "He came to look for Ariah?"

"Well... do you know him?"

"Jimmy could not control his temper earlier and fight with that person in the smoking area. His skills were quite good, in fact even better than Jimmy. Jimmy was already worried about Ariah, so he got really angry when the man provoked him, but he just couldn't defeat that man. In the end, we had to go to the doctor for treatment before we came here."

So that was what happened.

After that, Sharon muttered, "How did Ariah get to know that kind of person?"

When Stanley heard her question, he tightly frowned as he thought of the scene when Jimmy and Ricco were fighting. With the experience that Stanley had from the army, he clearly noticed some of the details from Ricco's skills, which seemed to be pretty

good. Perhaps, his identity was not that simple...

While Jimmy rushed toward the ward, Ariah lay on the bed and hissed in pain. The two children were surrounding her as they tried to coax her. However, Ariah endured the pain and told them that she was fine.

With a loud bang, Jimmy forcefully pushed the door open, and his loud actions drew the attention of the people in the room.

The moment Ariah saw that Jimmy was fine and only suffered some minor injuries, she heaved a long sigh of relief.

In fact, she had seen Ricco's extremely horrifying fighting skills. If they really fought with each other, Jimmy would never be able to defeat him.

Everything was fine now that she knew Jimmy was all right.

With a sharp gaze, Jimmy glanced at her and noticed that there were some bloodstains on the white gauze around her arm. With his lips pursed, he asked with a frown, "What happened to you? Didn't Stanley say that you were fine?"

Before Ariah could speak, Sadie couldn't hold it in any longer. "Uncle Jimmy, earlier a guy who seemed very bad came to look for Aunt Ariah, so the three of us waited outside. When we came in, Aunt Ariah was already in such a state, and she was in so much pain that she shed tears. Uncle Jimmy, hurry up and catch that bad guy!"

When Jimmy heard those words, his face turned as pale as a sheet.

That b*stard had the audacity to visit Ariah?

Coldly, Jimmy looked at Ariah, as the memory of the incident that happened when he went to find Ariah in the morning, once again replayed on his mind.

On the large messy bed, Ariah was curled up in the man's embrace with her hands and feet wrapped around the man like a snake, and her posture was enchanting and sexy...

Now that Jimmy thought about it, he felt as if something in his chest was going to explode!

Tightly, he clenched his fists as his gaze at Ariah grew colder.

When Ariah told him that she had met another man, he thought she was saying it just to provoke him, but he didn't expect it to be true!

Not only did she meet a man, but she even slept with him!

The more Jimmy thought about it, the angrier he became, and the expression on his face gradually became colder.

Not only did Ariah notice it, but even the two children also noticed that there was something wrong with the adult's emotions. Immediately, Sadie hid in her brother's embrace.

With a frown, Ariah asked, "Jimmy, why are you trying to scare the child?"

However, Jimmy stared at her and asked in an immense tone, as if forcing it out from his throat, "What is the relationship between you and him?"

Meanwhile, Ariah used her uninjured hand to caress Sadie's face, "Don't be afraid, Uncle Jimmy is not mad at you..."

"Ariah Myers!"

Suddenly, Jimmy gave a loud chortle. "I'll ask you one last time. What is your relationship with that man?"

At that moment, his voice was cold. When Ariah looked up, she met his piercing cold gaze, and there seemed to be a hint of disgust in it.

Disgust?

Although Ariah swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth, her heart couldn't stop feeling a surge of anger, so she looked straight into his eyes and said, "You can cheat on me, but I can't sleep with another man?"

A loud banging sound was heard.

When Jimmy heard her words, he exploded with anger. Then, he kicked the chair that was next to him as blue veins appeared on his forehead.

The two children were stunned, as they had never seen Jimmy like this before.

The first one to react was Sadie. A moment after Jimmy kicked the chair, her mouth twitched, and she began to cry.

"Jimmy, get the hell out of here!" Angrily, Ariah yelled while she tried to wipe away Sadie's tears and coaxed, "Be good, Sadie, don't cry..."

The door to the ward was flung open as Stanley's voice rang out, "What's going on?"

The moment he heard his daughter's cry from outside, his facial expression changed. After he entered the ward and saw the chair that was kicked to the ground, his expression turned even paler.
