Immediately, Stanley strode over and picked Sadie up, and comforted her softly. Meanwhile, Sadie wrapped her arms around his neck and gradually stopped crying when she heard his words.
Besides, she had never seen such an angry Jimmy. All this time, Jimmy had always put on a smile in front of them. Now that he suddenly got so angry, how could a little girl like her not be terrified?
At that moment, Stanley handed Sadie over to Sharon, who had been trailing behind him. With a sneer, he pulled Jimmy's arm and threw him aside, as he warned him in a low voice, "Do you want more injuries on your face? What did Sadie do to make you scare her? Is this what you're capable of? As a grown man, you did not solve the problem, and you even lose your temper in front of Ariah and children to show your prestige?"
When Jimmy heard Stanley's words, he clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands were popping. As he glared at Ariah, his eyes gradually turned red, which made him look terrifying and appalling.
Ariah!
Well, everything seemed to be going smoothly for her!
"Jimmy, if you dare to act foolishly today, I definitely will not let you go!" In anger, Stanley berated him.
At that moment, Ariah's face was pale, and her voice was trembling so much that it was difficult for her to finish a sentence. "Stanley, please, I beg you to chase him out. I don't want to see him. He's a lunatic!"
As soon as she finished her words, something in Jimmy's eyes instantly disappeared. A moment later, he retracted his gaze and sneered. Then, he turned around and left.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
There was merely any emotion in his eyes when he left.
Meanwhile, Ariah's heart shriveled in pain when she saw his final glance. At that moment, she could no longer hold back her tears, and her eyes turned red, but she could not let herself cry when there were so many people in the room.
The last pride she had did not allow her to do so.
After Ariah took a deep breath, she tried very hard to force a smile and apologized, "Sharon, I'm sorry to scare your precious daughter. I didn't know that b*stard would suddenly lose his temper like a lunatic, which ended up scaring your precious children."
As she spoke, she turned to look at the two children. "When I recover, I will give the both of you an apology by buying you whatever that you want, okay?"
With a sigh, Seamus said, "Aunt Ariah, your smile looks uglier than crying. Earlier it was just that Sadie was not used to seeing Uncle Jimmy acting like that. Look at her now. It's like nothing has happened. Don't worry about her."
Those words made Ariah's smile freeze.
Then, Sharon added, "Ariah, don't think too much about it. Sadie has always been nitwitted, and it will only take a meal for her to forget everything that happened earlier, so she'll be okay."
When Ariah heard those words, she nodded her head, but her face still didn't look good.
Although Sharon wanted to ask her what had happened, when she saw her in that state, she couldn't bring herself to say anything else.
In the end, the doctor finally came over and examined Ariah. With a frown, he reminded, "If you still want to keep this arm of yours, it's best if you have a good rest. Don't move too much. Take care of
yourself, or else who'll take responsibility if anything happens?"
Meanwhile, Ariah was in a daze as if her soul had left her body. That scene made Sharon feel bad for her, who was in such a state, so she promised the doctor that there would be no more problems as she helped Ariah lie down to rest.
After Sharon sent the doctor off, she pulled Stanley aside and whispered, "Someone will have to stay here and take care of her tonight, so I'll stay here while you take the children home to rest."
Immediately, Stanley frowned, "No way!"
"Why not?"
"You should go home and rest." It was extremely torturous to take care of a patient because it would make someone tensed up and mentally tired.
"Then will you be taking care of Ariah if I were to take the kids home?" At that moment, Sharon glanced at him. "Jimmy definitely can't come over to take care of her, or else the both of them might start a fight again."
With his brows still tightly furrowed, Stanley suggested, "We can hire a nanny..."
"Will the nanny be as considerate as I am? I don't care. Even if you are against it, I will still stay here to look after her. When you disappeared four years ago, I almost collapsed, and in the first six months, Ariah has always been by my side, taking care of me. If I don't take care of her now, I would be sent to hell."
After Stanley stared at her for a long time, he finally let out a sigh of relief, "If I were to go against it, I would be sent to hell too."
Only now did Sharon smile.
When they were about to head home that night, the two children were reluctant to part with Sharon. However, she told them that Ariah needed someone to look after her, so they obediently followed Stanley back home.
Before Ariah went to bed, she sighed, "I don't need you to take care of me since there are already nurses here. If you were to stay here, what will the two children do if they miss you at night?"
"They have Stanley." As Sharon answered, she lay on the other bed with a smile as if she didn't care. "He loves the children more than I do. He'll definitely take good care of them."
In the small ward, the two of them only left one of the lights on as they spoke in a soft voice.
"You're on good terms with Stanley, aren't you?" With a serious tone, Ariah asked, "I'm guessing you've let go of everything that happened in the past?"
When Ariah mentioned the past, Sharon remained silent for a moment before she said, "I know he treats me well, and I've always had him in my heart, so I will make sure to live a good life with him, but there are some people that I just can't forgive."
Ever since the incident where Isai's kidnapped her, Sharon's mood had changed, and she slowly began to accept Stanley.
It was then when she knew that she would probably be entangled with this man throughout her whole life.
Although she used to hate him for lying to her, and she hated the fact that he fooled her, when she thought about it later, she found that it was all his decision before she had known him.
After the two of them got along, she realized that he didn't seem to have done anything that crossed her line.
It was then when she decided to forget about the past and to enjoy the time they had. Since life was short, she should cherish the people around her.
The next day, when Sharon woke up, she actually opened her eyes to see Stanley and her two children right in front of her. In a moment of absent-mindedness, she thought that she was in her own home, but when she turned her head to find Ariah sleeping on another bed, only then did she realize that she was still in the hospital.
"Why are you guys here?" Immediately, Sharon got up and asked in a low voice, "What time is it now?"
"Around seven o'clock."
D*mn.
Did these two children get up at six?
In fact, Sadie loved to sleep in. How did she even wake up so early?
"They went to bed early last night and got up early this morning because they wanted to meet you before going to school." Before Stanley left the house, he brought her some clothes to change. At that moment, he raised his hand to tuck her strand of hair behind her ear and said, "Go and take a bath first, then I will take you all for breakfast. After breakfast, I will send the two of them to school."
Repeatedly, Sharon nodded her head.
Meanwhile, Sharon made sure her actions were quiet and gentle. When she was about to leave, Ariah was not up yet, so she informed the nurse that she would be bringing the kids to have breakfast.
"Are you now rest assured to let the two of them go to school?" As Sharon sipped on her milk, she asked.
A few days ago, Stanley strongly disagreed about the children going to school, as he claimed that he was afraid Isai would silently play tricks on them.
"I've transferred them to a new school, and no one knows where it is except for me."
"Ahem..."
That answer made Sharon choke on her milk.
What did he just say?
Transferred them to a new school?
Did he think it would be that easy?
At that moment, Stanley took a paper towel and handed it to her. While he looked at her shocking gaze, he said nonchalantly, "I've just got the procedure done not long ago, so I haven't told you about it. The school that they used to attend is no longer safe, so we can't let them go there."
Those words left Sharon speechless.
This level of efficiency in his actions simply left her in awe, and she had no choice but to accept it.
After breakfast, Stanley sent the children to their new school personally, while Sharon bought some breakfast for Ariah. On her way back, she received a call from Mark. "Sharon, on the matter you asked me to investigate, I've already made some progress."
