Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 659

After Caleb said that, Jimmy suddenly chuckled and put out the cigarette.

"Ah, I never expected that I have to ask advice on this."

For the sake of Jimmy's dignity, Caleb could only pretend that he didn't hear that.

"Anyway, my wife is having a tantrum with me recently and she divorced me. I suggested getting remarried tomorrow, but she wouldn't agree."

Hearing that, Caleb was astounded. "Uh..."

There were too much information to process.

Jimmy made it seemed like marriage was a trifling matter.

It was like he could get married as he wished.

"Ahem. Why wouldn't she agree?" Nevertheless, Caleb asked.

"She said I'm forcing her."

"Did you?"

"I told her to go to the bureau tomorrow. Does that count as forcing her?"

Jeez.

Looking at Jimmy's domineering attitude, Caleb could understand why his wife wasn't too happy.

Despite that, Caleb still suggested, "Well, I think your wife must be angry at you when she made the decision to divorce you. So now, if you wanna remarry her, you gotta... soften your attitude you

know. You can't be too hard on her."

"Tell me more."

Caleb didn't expect that he would be able to give advice to his superior one day, so instantly, he became spirited.

"Sure, but before I continue, are you sure that your wife is willing to get remarried to you?"

If she was unwilling, there was nothing they could do about it.

Hearing that, Jimmy snorted. "Of course! Who else could she be with?"

Silently, Caleb sneered inside his heart.

It was somehow unbelievable that his superior, who was always strict, was so domineering to his wife.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Nothing!"

"Really?"

He sounded quite fierce. Immediately, Caleb lowered his tone. "Deputy Director, this is not how you should speak to your wife." "How then?"

"First of all, you gotta show her respect. You can't just do anything according to your will."

Jimmy sneered. "If I hadn't been more assertive, she could have continued to play dumb."

Since Ariah wasn't someone who would take initiative to do things, he was certain that she would just stay neutral on this matter.

"Why don't you coax her?"

Coax Ariah? How? She never listened to him.

If she had, he wouldn't have been in a dilemma now.

Frustrated, Jimmy lit another cig and took a long drag on it before continuing, "My wife said no man would force a woman to get married and she told me to ask the married ones in our department. She promised to get remarried if someone did do it."

It turned out that this was the reason why the Deputy Director called him in.

Caleb blurted out, "Well, she's right. No man would force a woman to get married, because that would be a jerk..."

Suddenly, a cold glance was swept over and Caleb quickly realized what he had said.

"Deputy Director, I didn't mean to mock you. What I mean is that people only get married out of their free will..." Caleb quickly explained, "And your wife must have wished that you could respect her on making that decision instead of you deciding everything."

"Really?" Jimmy looked at him indifferently.

"Yeah, and you could propose to her!"

Proposing to Ariah?

Jimmy froze for a second and stopped smoking.

Seeing his reaction, Caleb widened his eyes. "No way. You never proposed at all?"

Now, he finally understood why the Deputy Director's wife wouldn't agree to get remarried.

Jimmy took another drag on his cigarette and frowned. "Why do I have to propose? It's not like we've never been married before..."

Suddenly, he paused.

He remembered that he didn't propose to Ariah when they first got married.

They just went to get registered and held a small wedding where only good friends were invited. Therefore, some people didn't even know that he had been married.

On the second day after the wedding, he was sent abroad to take part in a secret operation and was gone for more than half a month.

Naturally, there wasn't any honeymoon.

Now that he thought about it, it was quite unfair for Ariah.

Instantly, Jimmy stood up and came to the window, taking a long drag on his cig. Soon, the cig was finished.

"Deputy Director?"

Looking at him like this, Caleb felt a little nervous.

For a while, Jimmy just stood there still in silence. Eventually, he ordered, "You may go now."

Caleb quickly stood up. "Yes, sir!"

Saying that, he turned around and was about to leave. But then, he paused and added, "Deputy Director, women love romance, so perhaps you should really consider proposing to her."

On the other hand, forcing a woman to get married was just rude. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"Get out!"

Jimmy flicked the cigarette at Caleb.

With a chuckle, Caleb hurriedly left.

At about seven o'clock in the evening, Emily finally calmed down. However, she didn't eat much for dinner and just lay there staring at the ceiling silently.

Seeing that, Ariah sighed. Emily had been like this all day.

An hour later, she realized that Emily had fallen asleep already when she tried to call her.

She shook her head in amusement. Finally, Emily was tired now.

During the day, Emily almost jumped off the building. Ariah was so worried that she decided to stay here to keep an eye on Emily.

Just as she leaned against the chair and was about to fall asleep too, her phone suddenly rang. She took it out and answered, "Hello..."

"Are you sleeping?"

Hearing her muffled voice, Ricco asked.

Ariah stretched her arms and kept herself a little awake. "Nah. Why did you call me?"

Without beating around the bush, he said directly, "I need to ask you for a favor."

A favor?

"Ahem..."

Ariah was startled by his request. "I'm surprised that you would need my help one day."

Before knowing his real identity, she was already impressed by his ability and thought that he could do everything.
