Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 394

When Jimmy came to the ward, although he didn't know what happened, the atmosphere was obviously strange. In fact, Ariah's eyes seemed to be a little red. Just as he frowned and wanted to say something, Ariah glanced at him and gestured for him not to ask.

So Jimmy pursed his lips and didn't say anything.

The reason Stanley handed the children over to Ariah and Jimmy was that they were the only people he trusted.

The two of them also knew it in their hearts, so they took on the responsibility without saying a word, and left with a sleeping child in each of their arms.

Usually, Ariah would get into a fight whenever she saw Jimmy, but she was not in the mood for an argument today. One reason was that she was thinking about Sharon. The other reason was that she didn't want to disturb the two children, so as soon as she got out of the hospital, she got into his car without saying a word.

However, Jimmy was overwhelmed by Ariah's obedience, and he couldn't help but look into the rearview mirror while driving. Meanwhile, Ariah completely ignored him and kept her gentle gaze on the two children.

After they got home and settled the two sleeping children, Ariah brought him to the bedroom as she could no longer control her emotions and started to chase him away, "Alright, you can go now. There's nothing left for you to do here."

It was obvious that Jimmy wouldn't leave just like that as he said, "How can you chase me out once you're done with me? That's not nice."

"Jimmy, I'm not in the mood to fight with you today. Don't make me angry. Please leave!"

Although Ariah's face sunk, Jimmy didn't seem to notice the anger on her face, and he continued to speak idly, "Did you forget what Stanley told us when we left? He asked us to take good care of the two children."

Deliberately, he emphasized the word "us".

Immediately, Ariah gritted her teeth and glared at him.

"You should cut the crap too. I will be sleeping on the sofa tonight. I can't disobey Stanley's instructions. He left the two children to us because he has faith in us. If anything happened to them after I leave, how am I going to explain it to Stanley?"

"Pft, what could go wrong? Such nonsense!"

Although Ariah said so, her attitude was not as persistent as it was just now.

Then, Jimmy shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, it's always better to be safe than sorry."

After Ariah heard what he said, she couldn't be bothered with it, so she went back to her room to change her clothes and began to wash up.

After Ariah took a shower and came out of the bathroom, she saw that the two children were awake. At that moment, Seamus was sitting on the sofa with a confused look in his eyes, but he was quiet and obedient. However, Sadie probably woke up and couldn't find her parents, so she was throwing a tantrum while Jimmy held her in his arms and coaxed her.

The thing was, Jimmy had never coaxed a child before, and he rarely carried a child in his arms. Now that he was holding a tender little girl in his arms, he didn't dare to use too much of his strength, so he could only carefully carry her while he walked back and forth in the living room. Other than that, he was also muttering something to Sadie as he tried to coax her to sleep.

For a moment, Ariah was stunned, and she then walked over and heard Jimmy talking about gunfight movies to Sadie.

When Ariah realized that, she was dumbfounded.

It made Ariah furious.

Did this b*stard even know how to take care of a child? How could he tell a three-year-old girl about a gunfight movie?

What a psycho!

Just as her facial expression changed, and she was about to take Sadie away from him, Jimmy ended up raising his head and made a "shh" gesture to her. Then, he lowered his voice and said, "Be quiet. She is about to fall asleep."

About to fall asleep? Immediately, Ariah looked down and realized that the light-complexioned and tender little girl in his embrace had her large eyes closed. There were traces of tears on her lashes, but she looked as if she was about to fall asleep.

When Ariah realized that what he said was true, she didn't say anything else.

In fact, she could only give up and let him continue to coax her.

However, when she heard that Jimmy was continuing his gunfight story, Ariah finally couldn't help but yell, "Jimmy, you'd better change a story!"

After Jimmy paused for a moment, he cleared his throat and said, "A long time ago, there was a little girl..."

With a snort, Ariah sat down on the sofa in satisfaction. Then, she caressed Seamus' head and said, "Why are you awake? Come on, let me take you back to bed."

"Aunt Ariah, I want to take a shower."

"Oh?"

"I feel uncomfortable. I want to take a shower because I can't sleep if I don't take a shower."

When Ariah heard his request, she was shocked.

Little did she know, he was a fastidious little boy.

"Alright. Let's go take a shower." Then, Ariah brought Seamus into the bathroom and asked him to stand in the bathtub while she crouched by his side and carefully wiped his body. Obviously, Seamus was a little shy, and even his ears became slightly red. When Ariah noticed that, she silently laughed in her heart as she watched him and thought to herself that such a young boy like him knew how to be shy. So cute.

When Ariah was done cleaning Seamus, she got up to grab a towel. However, she was startled when she turned around to look. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

In fact, Jimmy had been standing at the door of the bathroom silently. At that moment, his sturdy body was leaning against the wall, and his gaze was dark as he stared at Ariah, but she no idea how long he had been standing there watching.

Then, Ariah patted her chest and said, "Who are you trying to scare? You were so quiet, and you made no sound at all! Are you a ghost?"

When Ariah saw that there was no one in his embrace, she asked, "Where's Sadie?"

"Uh, she fell asleep, so I tucked her in bed."

However, Ariah did not hear the obvious hoarseness in Jimmy's voice while she wrapped Seamus in a towel and rolled her eyes at him, "Why are you standing here for? Get out of the way!"

Immediately, Jimmy turned sideways as his gaze darkened. "I see that you have your own way with children. You are quite good at taking care of children."

When Ariah heard his compliment, her body paused. "I not having my own child doesn't mean I don't know how to take care of them."

Her answer left Jimmy speechless.

After that, she pushed him away and walked into the bedroom next to him.

Meanwhile, Jimmy's Adam's apple bobbed. Not sure whether it was from her or Seamus, but he could smell a faint fragrance coming from them, which went straight into his nostrils.

While he stared at the woman's graceful figure with a fiery gaze, the scene that happened earlier replayed in his head uncontrollably. The scene where she was halfsquatted in front of the bathtub, and her exquisite curvy body was charming and tempting.

Even she herself did not realize how attractive she looked.

Earlier when Jimmy stood there with his eyes fixated on her, a strong desire rose from the bottom of his heart again.

However, he couldn't do anything but watch in silence.

It was a kind of feeling that made him very unpleasant...

With a "bang", the bedroom door in front of Jimmy was suddenly tightly closed, and his thoughts were interrupted.

A moment later, there was another cracking sound from inside. When Jimmy realized that it was the sound of the door of the bedroom being locked, he scoffed and muttered to himself, "Is it even necessary for this d*mned woman to prevent me from entering her room as if I was a bad guy?"

The next day, by the time Ariah got up, Jimmy had already left. There was a small piece of note in the living room with several bold and powerful words on it, "I bought breakfast for you. If it gets cold by the time you're up, you can put it in the microwave and heat it up."

With her lips pursed, Ariah threw the note into the trash can. Then, she snorted and headed to the room to wake the two children up.
