Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 578

Meanwhile in the car.

Jimmy was driving while Ariah sat in the passenger seat, and David and Ben sat in the back seat.

David's admiration for Ariah was endless. "Ariah, look at my talent. If I wanted to be as good as you, how much time would it take?"

Obviously, David still wanted to be Ariah's disciple.

Ariah didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I'm not that good, I only know a little about it."

"You are being too humble! I think it's already really good!"

Speechless, Ariah could only thank him politely.

David looked at Jimmy and then Ben. Finally, he pointed at Ben and said, "Ariah, can you hypnotize Ben? This guy owes me 100 bucks since last year and has yet to return me the sum but he said he had returned it. Can you hypnotize this guy? Ask him and see if he has returned it or not!"

Ben's face was full of fear. "David! Don't fu*king accuse me. I'm afraid!"

When he thought about how the usually stubborn Felipe had been dismissed by Ariah in a few words in the office, Ben felt a little stunned.

Up until now, he didn't even dare to look into Ariah's eyes. He was afraid that he would fall for her tricks.

Glancing at Ben, Ariah saw his expression; she could guess what he was thinking.

"Well, not everyone can be hypnotized. The reason Felipe was easily hypnotized was that he was psychologically weak, so I got in easily. Some people are stronger, psychologically speaking. For

example, people like Ben, who has a stronger defensive heart than others, are not suitable for hypnotism."

Ben was happy hearing that. "Really?"

"Yes." Ariah smiled and nodded.

Seeing the smile on Ariah's face, Ben immediately felt a little embarrassed. Ariah was obviously making him feel better.

David's face was full of disappointment. "I thought I could figure it out today-did you or did you not return the 100 bucks you owe me?"

"D*mn you. I've already paid the 100 bucks back. I paid you back last year when we were on a night shift, and you said that you wanted to buy a pack of cigarettes. You didn't have any money at hand, so you asked me for some small change. I didn't have any small change, so I gave you 100 bucks."

"If that's true, then why don't I remember this?"

"You..."

The two of them were arguing behind them. Ariah smiled and looked away.

Jimmy had been driving in silence. Ariah turned her head and looked at him. She did not know what he was thinking.

He must be surprised by the fact that she could suddenly hypnotize others.

But he never showed his surprise.

Ariah's stare was probably too intent that Jimmy noticed it, "How can you be so sure that Ricco is in the hotel you mentioned?"

"Um... It's not a hotel but a small resort."

Ariah thought for a moment and said, "The last time he took me away from home, he went to that small resort. He knows the boss there, and the boss seems to respect him quite a bit."

"I hypnotized Felipe just now and he mentioned something about a hotel, and immediately I had the impression that Ricco probably brought Kevin to that resort."

Jimmy answered with a "hmm" and then stopped talking.

"Ahem." Clearing her throat, Ariah asked curiously, "Do you have something to ask me?"

"No, I don't."

"Really? I don't believe it. You are as curious as David about how I can get the information from Felipe this way."

Jimmy glanced at her but said nothing.

Ariah blinked, "Are you really not curious? I'm sure you're curious!"

"Just sit still and keep quiet!"

Jimmy had a headache because of her pestering. He was indeed curious about the fact that his woman was hiding such a side of hers, which surprised and amazed him.

The women he admired were never the kind who only knew how to cry when in trouble, but he also disliked those women who were more dominant than men.

Ariah was a mixture of these two types of women; she wasn't aggressive, yet she wasn't easily bullied as well.

The more days he spent with her, the more he would be attracted by her character and personality.

Just like what she had done in his office just now, he was really amazed by her display of skills.

Ariah shrugged her shoulders. She knew that this man wouldn't be able to accept it for the time being, so she decided to shut up and give him some time to think.

After going around for a long time, they finally arrived at their destination.

"You guys should get down first." Jimmy turned off the engine and said to David and Ben behind him.

Without much thought, Ben and David got out of the car immediately.

Ariah was about to follow when her wrist was suddenly grabbed and Jimmy pulled her back. Her body was forcefully pressed against the chair and Jimmy's strong and wide chest pressed down on her.

She glared at him, "What are you doing?"

"Shut up!"

Jimmy roared at her and kissed her.

Ariah's eyes widened. What...what did this mean?

Thinking about Ben and David standing outside, Ariah's face was burning hot. She began to struggle, but Jimmy's hands were like steel, pressing on her shoulders; she couldn't move at all.

Just as Ariah was out of breath, Jimmy let go of her.

Gasping, she leaned back in her chair, her chest heaving.

Jimmy pulled her clothes and said in a hoarse voice, "What else are you hiding from me? I will dig them out by myself; I will explore you thoroughly from inside out. Only in this way will it be interesting!"

This made Ariah speechless.

'Explore thoroughly from the inside out...' Why did these words sound so misleading?

"Once you've composed yourself, I'll be waiting for you outside." Jimmy let go of her and opened the door to get out.

Ariah sat in the car and took a few deep breaths before following him.

Once she got out of the car, everyone's eyes were on her.

To be precise, their gaze were on her lips. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

She didn't know, but in the eyes of other men, she was full of charm...

Her lips were slightly red and her eyes were full of affection, which made her look attractive.

Some people were stunned.

Jimmy frowned and yelled, "Quit staring at her!"

She returned to her senses and turned her face away uneasily...

Jimmy pulled Ariah behind him and stared at her delicate face for a long time. He said with an unfriendly expression, "You're a scourge!"

Ariah's face was filled with confusion. What just happened? She didn't want to take the blame for causing trouble because she didn't do anything!

"Be obedient and follow behind me. Don't say anything, and don't do anything." He snorted in a low voice, "Don't look at those guys. Do you understand?"

Ariah didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "They're just a bunch of kids. I didn't think of them as men."

"Men are men. No matter how young they are, they are still men!"

Jimmy didn't want to argue with her. If he had known this, he wouldn't have asked her to come over and distract his men!

He waved his hand and said, "David."

David answered, "Yes, sir?"

"The bulletproof vest."

"Yes sir!"

The bulletproof vest?

Ariah was a little curious. She had only seen it on TV, but she had never seen it in real life.

Jimmy took the bulletproof vest that David handed over. Pursing his lips, he put it on Ariah without saying anything.

Ariah, "For me to wear?"

She thought that Jimmy was going to carry out his mission, so he needed to wear a bulletproof vest.

"What about you?" Ariah was a little anxious when she saw that there was nothing on him. "Why aren't you wearing it?"

"I'm fine." Jimmy buttoned her up.

"The equipment was checked by Lenny. He only took us as usual, so he forgot to bring an extra one for Ariah." David took off the bulletproof vest on his body. "Captain, take mine..."

"Put it on!" Jimmy did not even spare him a glance. After examining the equipment, he led his squad into the inn.

Ariah was stunned for a moment before taking big strides forward to catch up.
