Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 570

Only Jimmy and Ariah were left in the ward now. Looking at Ariah with deep eyes, Jimmy said, "You scared them earlier."

"Who asked them to set me up? Am I not allowed to scare them?" Ariah snorted, "They got off light."

Jimmy raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean? Are you still planning to mess with them?"

Glancing at Jimmy from the corner of her eyes, Ariah asked, "Do you feel bad forthem?" Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Jimmy had nothing to say for himself.

"Forget it, since they're sincerely sorry, I'll cut them some slack." Ariah waved her hand. "Good thing you're not involved in this thing. Otherwise, I won't let you off so easily."

Recalling her slutty behavior in the hotel room just now, Ariah gritted her teeth with anger.

"Oh, what if I was involved? What would you do to me?"

"I'll feed you guys the drug that you gave me and lock all of you up in one room." Blinking her dewy eyes, Ariah said. "I'll let you guys have a taste of what I experienced earlier. Sounds perfectly fair, doesn't it?"

Jimmy did not know whether to laugh or cry. Ariah was indeed ruthless. How could she even think of such an idea?

Returning to her bed, Ariah asked after hesitating for a while, "Did you really knocked on my room door yesterday?"

Wearing a faint smile on his face, Jimmy asked, "Why are you asking?"

"Didn't you go back home with Anna?" There was a tinge of jealousy in her tone.

Keeping silent, Jimmy gradually walked towards her. He lowered his eyes and kept his gaze fixed on her. "Are you jealous?"

What?

Ariah paused for a moment.

Bending down slightly, he looked her in the eye. "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. That's what you just mentioned."

Ariah was dumbfounded. Was he trying to say that he decided to get close to Anna after seeing how close she was with Kobi?

After knowing the truth, Ariah was so angry that she almost fainted on the spot. She was boiling with anger at the hot pot restaurant last night, but it turned out that he was purposely trying to make her jealous.

After scolding him for god knew how long, she chased him away. "Go away. I'm going to rest!"

Pinching her chin, Jimmy smiled. "Get some sleep."

Why was he suddenly being so nice to her?

Suspicious, Ariah asked, "Where are you going?"

"You get some rest. I have something to do. I'll be back soon."

"Geez..."

Jimmy pushed open the door and went out. Lying back onto the bed, Ariah looked at the ceiling and sighed. Recalling what happened in the hotel, she felt a headache creeping up on her.

Unlike before, Kobi seemed to be treating her differently.

When Ariah was still abroad, she thought Kobi was the one who saved her, so she had been friendly towards him.

Back then, Kobi was extremely indifferent to her. He was not interested in her at all.

Now that his attitude toward her changed, Ariah could not figure out what he was thinking.

Moreover, he already had Alice.

Eyes darkening, Ariah pursed her lips as she fell into deep thoughts...

After exiting the ward, Jimmy noticed David was still standing outside the door. Raising his eyebrows, he asked, "Why are you still here? Where is Ben?"

"Something happened at the station, so I asked him to go back first." David timidly looked inside the ward, obviously still shocked by Ariah's evil plan. "Um, captain, Ariah is all cooled down now, right?"

"If you're going to be so scared, why did you even drug her in the first place?" Jimmy glared at him coldly.

David smiled awkwardly.

"I'll deal with you guys later." Jimmy did not have the time to bother about them now. "Give me the key."

"You mean the car key?"

Jimmy frowned.

Instantly, David asked no more questions. He took out the car key and handed it to Jimmy. After taking the car key, Jimmy walked away. David asked, "Captain, where are you going?"

"Take good care of Ariah." After saying that, Jimmy entered the elevator.

Jimmy drove straight to the Hudson Mansion. Upon arriving, he got off the car without even pulling out the key from the ignition. When the servants saw him, they were stunned for a moment. Snapping back to their senses, they asked, "Mr. Jimmy, why did you come back all of a sudden?"

Looking inside the house, Jimmy asked, "Where is everyone?"

"Dinner was just served, so everybody is having dinner in the dining room..."

As soon as the servant finished her sentence, Jimmy went straight to the dining room.

Ella was the first one who noticed Jimmy was back. "Jimmy, why did you come back so suddenly? You haven't had dinner yet, have you? Maya, get Jimmy one set of cutleries!"

Mack was surprised as well. He already came back during the day. Why was he here again?

Sighing, Jimmy took off his coat and walked up to Kobi with a poker face. Then, he grabbed Kobi's collar and threw his fist at him.

The next moment, a loud bang echoed in the dining room, and everything turned into complete chaos.

Shocked, Ella shouted, "What are you doing? Stop!"

Once again, Jimmy punched Kobi in the face, but Kobi did not retaliate. Instead, he let Jimmy vent his anger.

The more Kobi stayed calm, the angrier Jimmy became, and his punches became more violent.

Mack bellowed, "Stop!"

Ella was frozen to the spot. She had never seen her youngest son so worked up. He looked like an angry lion.

Furious, Mack wanted to separate them. However, someone acted faster before he could do anything. It was Emily. She rushed over and jumped in front of Kobi. Jimmy could not stop himself in time. Although he managed to control his strength, his punch still landed on Emily.

"Ugh..."

Feeling pain shooting up her body, Emily let out a muffled groan.

Frowning, Kobi quickly helped Emily to her feet before shouting at her angrily, "Why did you jump in front of me?"

Ignoring him, she glared at Jimmy, enduring the pain. She looked like she was about to explode from anger. "Why did... Why did you hit your brother? You beat him up last time, and now you're doing it again! Are you crazy?"

Jimmy laughed sarcastically. "Just call me crazy then."

"You..." Emily stomped her feet, wondering why was Jimmy being so unreasonable.

"Apologize to Kobi!" "In your dreams."

Emily's face turned red.

Suddenly, a stick landed on Jimmy's back with a loud bam. Failing to dodge, he got hit by the stick. Mack yelled angrily, "Emily is right. Apologize to your brother!"

Jimmy started beating his brother up as soon as he came back. It was outrageous! Was his son trying to piss him off?

On the other hand, Ella felt sorry for her son. Although she knew that Jimmy made a mistake, she still took his side. "Speak nicely to him. Why did you hit him? Jimmy, does it hurt?"

Hearing the loud bam just now, Ella was shocked. Feeling angry and sorry for Jimmy, she glared at Mack before pulling Jimmy to the side to check his condition.

Kobi stood in the corner with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. With a cold gaze, he looked at Ella, who was feeling anxious for Jimmy.

Alice was so angry that her eyes turned red. "Auntie, Jimmy is the one who made a mistake. Why are you taking his side? Look at Kobi. He's injured badly, and he's bleeding so much. Why don't you care about him?"

Ella's body stiffened up.

Pushing away Ella's hand, Jimmy stood up and was about to leave. Mack growled in a deep voice, "Stop where you are! Follow me to the study!"

Jimmy narrowed his eyes. "If you want to know why I beat Kobi up, ask him."

"I will question him too later. You come up now!" Mack's face went livid. He had no plans of letting Jimmy go so easily.

Standing beside them, Ella sighed. "Jimmy, don't provoke your dad any further. Go upstairs and explain everything to him."

Pursing his lips, Jimmy remained expressionless. He put one hand into his pocket, turned around, and followed Mack upstairs.

As soon as he entered the study room, Mack snorted and said, "What's wrong with you? Tell me everything!"
