Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 666

Hearing what she had said, Emily chuckled. While she chuckled, tears fell down her cheek uncontrollably. "I'll come back and see you whenever I'm free. You'll forever be my friend."

Seeing Emily shedding tears, Ariah paused for a moment, "Why are you crying? You're making me want to cry too! Let me tell you something, I have never shed tears for a woman in my entire life."

Emily sobbed and said, "Me too."

Hearing that, Ariah comforted, "Alright then, let's not cry anymore."

Nodding her head, Emily replied, "Alright, let's not cry anymore." After wiping away her tears away, she said, "I borrowed one of the nurse's phone to call my family two days ago. My dad said he would send someone to pick me up, so I will probably be leaving within two days. I'll let you know when my family comes over to pick me up."

"Well, anyway you have to stay here in the ward for a few more days. So when your family comes, you don't have to go back to the Hudson Family anymore. You can just go back with your family."

After thinking for a moment, Ariah added, "Also, you don't have to see Kobi anymore. Just leave without lingering feelings, okay?"

A toxic relationship should be cut off as soon as possible.

Emily glanced at her with a guilty look and asked, "Do you not want me to say a proper goodbye to him?"

"What's the use of doing a proper farewell? If he told you he's still in love with you, would you still be able to leave?"

With a serious look, Ariah advised, "Emily, if you and Kobi are getting married because you love each other, I'll be very happy and will give you my sincere blessings. But it's obvious that he doesn't have deep feelings for you, and I don't want you to be trapped in a one-sided relationship. You'll only suffer alone in the end."

If it wasn't meant to be, it was probably best for her to let go of this relationship.

After hearing the advice, Emily sniffed and said, "Yeah, I know that too. I'll do my best to end this relationship even though that means I'll suffer for a period of time, but I'm sure I'll be able to walk out of this relationship eventually." C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Why was it so difficult for such a good girl like Emily to meet someone who actually treated her well?

Ariah sighed.

"Ariah, I want to tell you something before I leave."

It seemed that Emily must have made an important decision. Her eyes sparkled as she held onto Ariah's hands.

Wearing a thoughtful expression, Ariah suddenly widened her eyes with disbelief, "You aren't going to tell me that you're pregnant with Kobi's child, are you?"

If something like this really happened, she would definitely kill herself.

"What? No!" Emily blushed. "That's not what I was going to say. Why did you think that could happen?"

Ariah then chuckled awkwardly.

With a sheepish smile on her face, Ariah was too embarrassed to say that on the first night they met, she and Jimmy had already heard them from their bedroom.

It was clear that they had sex, so it wouldn't be surprising to hear if she was really pregnant.

"What were you going to say?" Ariah cleared her throat and asked in a serious tone.

"I just want to tell you that..."

Taking a deep breath, Emily continued, "You and Jimmy should pay attention to Kobi from now on. He's not as gentle as he looks. He's cunning and seems like he's plotting on something. You have to be on guard against him, or you'll suffer later on."

Hearing Emily's words, Ariah was stunned for a moment.

What she said next made Ariah even more surprised, "A few days ago when I was taken away by Kevin from the hospital, didn't I disappear for a night? I told you that I was kidnapped, but I didn't know who kidnapped me. Until two days ago, my memory suddenly came back..."

"Ariah, it wasn't someone else who kidnapped me. It was Kobi. I knew about the secret between him and Kevin, so he was afraid that I would expose it to the public. That's why he kidnapped me. Then, he locked me up in a room and hypnotized me, used me as an experiment to erase my memories, then made me forget what he had done to me..."

But her memory came back. She suddenly remembered what had happened — she was hypnotized by Kobi in that room.

It probably didn't occur to Kobi that Emily had her memories back.

After listening to what Emily said, Ariah was dumbfounded. After a long while, she finally connected the dots and exclaimed, "Don't tell me you wanted to jump off the building last night because you

regained your memory and couldn't take the blow?!"

No wonder she looked so disappointed after returning from Kobi's ward.

The reality was too harsh for Emily to accept. Ariah thought it was because Kobi had blocked the bullet for her. She didn't expect there to be a hidden story!

Biting her lips, Emily turned away. She was a little embarrassed and annoyed. "Don't bring up what happened yesterday anymore! That was the silliest thing I've ever done in my life. Forget about it!"

Rolling her eyes, Ariah chuckled, "Sure, let's forget about it."

Only then a smile appeared on Emily's face. However, after a moment of thought, her expressions turned into a determined one while she said, "Ariah, Jimmy didn't commit any crime, and he didn't hurt anyone. He's under control by Kobi, but he didn't do anything against nature. This is all Kobi's scheme..."

"Yeah, I know that."

Ariah nodded with a smile. Since the very beginning, she believed that Jimmy isn't someone who would do anything to go against nature.

It would be a lie if Emily said she wasn't surprised to hear that. She always assumed that Ariah didn't know anything.

Raising her eyebrows, Ariah asked curiously, "Why are you willing to tell me these things?"

At the end of the day, she knew that Emily was still in love with Kobi. She hadn't thought that she would speak ill of Kobi due to righteousness.

"I'm just afraid that after I leave, you won't know anything and will be fooled by him, so I wanted to caution you..."

She treated Ariah as a true friend, so she did not want to see anything bad happen to her in the future.

After digesting the information for some time, Ariah nodded her head. "Emily, I'm really glad I became friends with you."

Heaving a sigh, Emily sat on the bed with a sullen look in her eyes. "He wasn't like this before, but now he's no longer the Kobi that I know of..."

"Perhaps we have never truly understood him."

Or perhaps his mild personality was just an act, but now, Kobi finally showed his true personality.

Walking out of the Land Bureau, Jimmy was holding a copy of documents.

Before this, David went into the Land Bureau with him with a mild look on his face. However, when both of them came out, his expression darkened.

The two then drove back to the police station.

As they were about to reach, Jimmy said, "David, go find out more about this Josiah person in secret."

Taking over the documents in one hand, David answered, "Alright, since it's a common name, I might need more time to find out more about this person."

After thinking for a while, Jimmy said, "Josiah must have been a soldier. You should be able to narrow down the scope if you investigate based on this information."

Feeling suspicious, he enquired, "How did you know about this, boss?"

"It's just a guess. You can go and check it out. Let's see what's going on first."

"Sure."

The other day when he was in Mack's study room, he saw some photos. Although he did not clearly see the faces, he saw three people in military uniforms.

As soon as they arrived at the police station, Stanley called. Jimmy signaled David to head in first. He answered the phone in the car, "Why are you calling me at this hour?"

"The thing you ordered arrived. I don't have time to send it to you so come and get it yourself."

The male voice on the other end of the phone was as pleasant as ever.
