Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 652

"What are you doing?"

Ariah was taken out by Jimmy. He was holding her so tight that she couldn't break free at all.

"Jimmy, I can't just leave Emily there. What if something happens..."

"Nothing will happen." Hearing that, Jimmy stopped and glanced at her, then motioned at a bench and said, "Let's sit over there."

"Seriously, what's going on?" She grew suspicious.

Jimmy ignored her question and went straight to the nurse station. After a while, he came back with a glass of water and said, "Drink it."

With a smirk, Ariah said, "Oh, it turns out that you're worried about me?"

"Yeah, look at your cracked lips."

Then, he shoved the glass into her hand and urged her to drink the water.

Silently, she criticized him for not being gentle enough.

After drinking the water, Ariah felt much hydrated as she hadn't remembered to drink any water since she had been staying by Emily's side for the past few hours.

Then, she noticed that he looked worn out, so she softened her voice. "Are you thirsty?"

Jimmy shook his head and leaned back against the wall, shutting his eyes.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound was heard. He opened his eyes and looked at her, who rubbed her belly in embarrassment. "I'm hungry."

Amused by her pitiful look, he broke into a smile and pulled her up. "Come, let's go have some food."

"But Emily..."

"I'll ask the nurse to pay attention to her in the meantime."

"Okay, then."

There were quite a few restaurants around the hospital, which were still opened even in the middle of the night, and they were lively.

Eventually, they decided to have roasted meat since it was a cold day.

The food seemed delicious. Ariah swallowed hard and looked at Jimmy's plate but Jimmy insisted, "Have some soup first before eating meat."

She had skipped two meals today, so she needed to eat something soft first.

Pouted, she did as he said.

"By the way, are those people in the head office gonna protect Kevin again this time?" "Director Sherlock promised me that they will handle it fairly this time. He'll write a report."

With the assurance of Director Sherlock, hopefully, this time Kevin would pay the price he deserved.

Ariah nodded, and then with hesitation, she asked again, "What about... Kobi?"

Jimmy glanced at her. "What do you mean?"

"Well... what will happen to him?" Ariah stammered, "Will he... be punished?"Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Giving her a deep look, he asked, "Are you worried about him?"

"Huh?"

"Are you worried that I will make him pay for what he did?"

"That's not what I meant..."

"That's what you meant."

"Jimmy..."

Ariah glared at him. "Don't misunderstand it, okay? I've already told you I have nothing to do with Kobi a long time ago. I'm just asking. If you don't like talking about it, then I won't ask anymore."

Instantly, Jimmy sneered.

"Really? Then why are you in such a hurry to

explain?"

Hearing that, Ariah was really pissed off.

She had lost all her appetite now.

Soon, she put down her cutlery heavily, causing him to look at her. "Didn't you say you're hungry?"

"I have no more appetite left now!"

"But I thought you're a big eater?"

"Say that again!"

He broke into a smile. "Alright, I'm just joking. Hurry up and eat."

Ariah rolled her eyes at him and decided to go on a hunger strike. However, when the food was served, she compromised because it just smelled so good.

After the meal, they walked back slowly to help with digestion.

Ariah had eaten too much that she had to prop herself on the waist to keep walking.

Seeing that, Jimmy was helpless. "Why did you eat so much?"

"Why didn't you stop me?"

He was choked at her words.

Sometimes, she could be unreasonable.

Meanwhile, Ariah was still sulking over Jimmy's remarks earlier. Kobi had taken the bullet for her, so of course, she would be concerned about how he would end up.

But then, Jimmy made those statements on her past with Kobi again.

What a petty man.

Thinking about that, she walked slowly behind him. Suddenly, a voice sounded behind them. "Is that man in front of you your husband? Why isn't he watching out for you? The road is quite slippery."

Ariah turned around and saw that it was a nurse.

"Uh..."

With a smile, she just said, "Thanks for your concern. I'll watch out."

It was quite heart-warming though.

Ariah sighed.

However, the nurse frowned. "You'd better watch out more during pregnancy."

Ariah was shocked.

What?

Did the nurse just say that she was pregnant?

The nurse must be joking.

She was just having too much food and not pregnant, please!

When she looked up, she realized that Jimmy was standing aside, looking at her amusingly.

Right away, she became even angrier and she whined to the nurse with a pitiful look, "My husband doesn't really care about me and the baby. He wouldn't mind if I fall..."

As she spoke, she stroked her belly, acting like a pregnant lady. "Besides, he doesn't even hold my hand usually, let alone watching out for me!"

Saying that, she noticed that Jimmy's face was getting darker, which she felt quite satisfied with.

On the other hand, the nurse grew indignant and snapped, "That's unbelievable!"

Ariah then wiped her imaginary tears.

Looking at her, Jimmy was completely speechless.

If he ignored it, she might just go on and slander him.

"Miss, my husband is coming over. You'd better hurry up and leave. He has a bad temper for the record. But don't worry about me. He won't vent his anger on me after you leave." Ariah's face was full of anxiety.

At the same time, the nurse saw from afar that a tall man, who was enveloped in a chill, was coming over.

Swallowing hard, the nurse then left quickly.

"Are you having fun?" Jimmy came to her and asked.

"Yep, a lot."

"Do you wanna have more fun then?"

His voice was deep and pressing, so Ariah did not dare to fool around anymore. Hurriedly, she shook her head. "Nope."

Jimmy's gaze deepened.

Sensing his burning gaze, she could feel her scalp getting numb.

He must be taking it too seriously and got angry now.

Jimmy smirked when he saw the timid look on her face and his gaze deepened at her belly.

Noticing that, she subconsciously covered her belly and took a step back. "What are you looking at?"

He touched his chin and smiled enigmatically. "I'm looking at our baby."

Although she knew that he said it on purpose, her face still turned red. "I'm not pregnant and you know that."

However, he just went to grab her. "Well, then I'll try my best to make it happen!" "What do you mean? Let go!"

"No, let's go home and get you ready for pregnancy."

Now, Ariah was regretting it.
