Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 388

When Jimmy stared at her, a voice in his heart said, "Do I really want a divorce? It is just a simple procedure, but after half an hour, once the relevant documents are handed in, and the verification is completed, the marriage certificate will be canceled, and we will turn from a couple to completely unrelated strangers."

From that moment onward, no matter who she was with, it no longer had anything to do with him.

In fact, it also meant that he would no longer be the man to have dinners with her, sleep next to her, or wake up next to her the next morning. Also, he wouldn't be able to celebrate her birthdays or be the reason behind her smile, and he won't be able to take care of her if she falls sick. Even her future child won't belong to him... In the future, none of these things would have anything to do with him.

At the thought of such a scene, Jimmy felt a burst of pain in his chest.

At that moment, he realized he couldn't stand that feeling even when it was just a thought. If it really happened in the future, Jimmy felt he might end up doing something extreme.

That was why...

At that moment, Jimmy, who had been forbearing, finally took action.

Immediately, he took out his phone and sent a text to a specific number. Then, as if nothing had happened, he returned his phone to his pocket.

Five minutes later, there was a slight commotion in the office.

"What do you mean that we can't complete the divorce procedure by today? Is there something wrong with the computer? Can't it be fixed then?"

"Wait, so now the computer has been repaired, but some of the information in it has disappeared, and you're telling me that you need relevant technicians to come and restore the data?"

"You're saying that it will take a few hours to recover the information, which means we can't get the procedures done by today? And we should just leave? Hey, what kind of service are you providing? We have been waiting for several hours. You can't just ask us to leave like that!"

Complaints sounded in the hall when the scene happened.

In the end, both of them were also chased out of the Bureau of Civil Affairs.

At that moment, Ariah's gaze turned dull. 'Are they playing a trick on me?"

However, Jimmy's expression was indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him while he said nonchalantly, "Let's go then. Since there's a problem with the system, we won't be able to do it today. We will come again someday. I guess we just happened to be out of luck today."

Just like that, Ariah, who was completely kept in the dark, was sent home in a daze.

In the meantime, Sharon headed to the supermarket to find the woman again and sincerely requested, "Miss Wang, it's just a tiny request of mine to visit your mother, and I mean no harm."

Although the other party was still somewhat resistant about Sharon's sudden visit, it was not as intense as the first time they met.

"Sorry, but I have to work now, and I don't have time to take you to see my mother. Miss Cruz, I think it's best if you leave now because I really don't have the time for you."

At that moment, Sharon seemed to have found a glimpse of hope. "Then when would you be free?"

"I've just started my shift, and it's still a long time to go before my shift ends. I really think you should leave."

After that, she left impatiently.

Meanwhile, Sharon smiled and didn't continue to pester her. After she bought a bottle of water, she left the supermarket silently.

Instead, Sharon had planned to wait until 3 p.m. for Miss Wang to finish her shift. When Miss Wang saw Sharon, who was waiting outside the supermarket, she was stunned. It was obvious that she did not expect Sharon to be so perseverant.

However, Miss Wang didn't say anything. After she glanced at Sharon, she immediately headed home.

Whereas Sharon followed behind closely.

Until the moment they reached the housing estate, Miss Wang turned to stop Sharon, but before she could say anything, Sharon immediately said, "Miss Wang, I really just want to visit your mother. I somehow got the news that your mother fell into a coma after the accident, so I wanted to visit her. Back then, your mother had taken good care of my father and cared for him for a year. I have always been grateful to your mother. So when I knew that something had happened to your family, I wanted to come and visit Hazel. It's just that simple, and I don't mean any harm."

Perhaps Sharon's expression was too sincere, or perhaps her words had touched Miss Wang, so she invited Sharon in.

"My house is very small and messy, so Miss Cruz, please have a seat as you like. You seem to be younger than me, so you can call me Loria if you don't mind," she said as she poured a glass of water for Sharon.

Immediately, Sharon stood up and took the glass of water as she asked, "Loria, can I visit your mother?"

"You may come with me. My mother is in the bedroom."

Then, Sharon trailed behind her.

In the small and dimly lit bedroom, a thin and weak woman was lying on the bed. As soon as Sharon saw the woman on the bed, her eyes became teary.

That was Hazel, the woman who had taken care of her father back then.

Back then, Hazel was quite chubby, but now, she was as emaciated as a fowl.

At that moment, Hazel's appearance instantly reminded Sharon of her father. In fact, her father was bedridden for many years, and in the end, he was so thin that he was a mere bag of bones.

It was even a ghastly sight for Sharon.

When Loria looked at Ariah, it didn't seem like she was putting on an act, and she really felt sad. The fact that she was sad, even when she was not related to Hazel, was really not an easy thing.

"Miss Cruz, it's none of your business that my mother was involved in a car accident. You don't have to feel sorry." On the contrary, Loria comforted Ariah and said, "I was also very sad when it first happened, but as time went by, I accepted my fate and felt that it was destined to happen. Things that were destined to happen would happen somehow."

Destined to happen?

If it really was destined to happen, how could it be so coincidental?

As soon as her father met with an accident, the lady, who was in charge of taking care of her father, also met with an accident.

On the day that Isai intended to kill Sharon, the words he said had been engraved in her heart. Other than that, she was also constantly reminded about the words he said, and she would even have dreams about what happened back then. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Later, when she asked Mark to investigate further, she found that something was off. it turned out that the lady who took care of her father had an accident!

If she hadn't gone to investigate it, she probably wouldn't have known about it in her whole life.

"Loria, there's another reason why I came this came, besides visiting your mother. There's something that I want to ask you."

Immediately, Loria glanced at her and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Before your mother got into an accident, did anyone come to look for her?"

"What are you trying to tell me?"

After a second thought, Sharon decided to simply make it clear, "What I mean is, Loria, are you sure that what happened to your mother was an accident, and it was not done on purpose by someone?"

Blankly, Loria looked at her and stuttered, "Miss... Miss Cruz, what do you mean?"

To say these words out loud would indeed shock others, which was why Sharon did not want to put it this way in the first place. However, if she did not start with them, she would never be able to get any news about what had happened back then.

"Loria, to tell you the truth, your mother had taken care of my father back then, and she was the closest person to my father. That year when my father was in trouble, your mother was also the first to know about it. But my father's death wasn't an accident, and he was murdered..."

Meanwhile, Sharon observed Loria's expression as he spoke. "I was wondering if it might be possible that your mother was the only one who was present when my father was murdered. Did she tell you anything when she returned that day?"

During this period of time, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that Hazel's accident wasn't just a normal accident.

In fact, she did not believe that there was such a coincidence.

However, these were just her deduction, and she had no evidence to prove them, which was why she wanted to find out the truth behind the incident that happened back then. The only person who knew the truth was Hazel, but she was in a coma.
