Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 735

Not only David and Ben, but all the officers in the police station could feel that Jimmy's mood had been going ups and downs recently.

Sometimes, he was wearing a smile, and other times, he looked gloomy.

It was really hard to predict what he was thinking.

Nonetheless, David knew that his unstable emotion must have something to do with Ariah.

Ever since they played the fireworks last time, Jimmy hadn't eased up a bit.

After discussing, they decided to send someone to help Jimmy solve his problem.

Since David was elected as their representative, he could only brave himself out.

"Capt., haven't you reconciled with your wife yet?" He smiled awkwardly.

"Why?"

"Uh, no-nothing..."

"You may leave then."

"Wait! No, actually, there's something I wanna say!"

Jimmy gave him a look.

Gathering up his courage, David finally said, "I'm here to give you some advice.¹'

"Oh? What advice?"

"Something to help you get along well with your wife," David said with a grin.

However, Jimmy just stared at him until his grin slowly froze. Just as he could not stand it anymore, finally, Jimmy put down the pen and said, "Tell me about it."

Relieved, David then slowly laid out his plan.

Upon hearing David's plan, Jimmy raised his eyebrows and asked, "You sure that's gonna work?"

"Yep!"

"Alright, you may go now."

David thought that he didn't believe it and insisted, "Capt., trust me! We're doing this for your own good..."

Hearing that, Jimmy swept his gaze over, then he quickly shut up and went out.

Usually, Ariah would get off work at 5 o'clock, whereas Jimmy finished work an hour later, so she would head to her family's home first.

But today when she came out of the hospital, she saw Jimmy's car parked by the road.

With a pause, Ariah walked in the opposite direction, pretending that she didn't see him.

"Ariah, wait up!"

Soon, Jimmy came to her side and grabbed her by the wrist.

However, she almost lost her balance, and luckily, he steadied her in time. Now, her belly was really obvious even when she was wearing loose clothes.

Jimmy stroked her belly and muttered, "Baby, have you missed Daddy yet?"

Seeing that he was immersed in his role as a soonto-be-father, Ariah rolled her eyes.

After that, he wanted to take her to his car but she struggled a little before following him.

As soon as she fastened her seat belt, Jimmy asked, "Why did you run away when you see me just now?"

Ariah wasn't startled at all and explained, "Ah, I didn't see you."

Jimmy looked at her with a faint smile which made her a little guilty and she looked away. Tapping on the steering wheel lightly, he asked, "What do you want to eat?"

"I don't wanna dine outside today. Can we go back to my family's house?"

"Are you gonna ask your mom to cook for you every time?"

Hearing that, Ariah was choked speechless. Indeed, in the last few months she spent at home, it was her mother who was cooking every single time.

"Listen, why don't we give your mom a break and I'll take you to a nice restaurant."

Curious, she glanced at him and asked, "What kinda restaurant?"

Nowadays, she could eat a lot as her appetite was equivalent to two people's.

Without giving her a clue, he just drove the car into a small alley. The area was a little shabby and one would hardly come across it unless they were shown by someone.

"The restaurant is a private one and the chefs were all Michelin starred. The upper class likes to come here."

Instantly, Ariah swallowed her saliva. She had never tried dishes made by a Michelin-starred chef before.

Seeing her look, he was a little amused. The alley's surface was not smooth to walk, so he held her hand firmly as he led her into the deep end.

The owner of the restaurant had been waiting for them. When he saw Jimmy coming, he greeted them with a smile and led them to their booked room.

Ariah looked around and discovered that although the environment in the alley wasn't good, the interior design of the restaurant was rather elegant.

It made one's eyes brightened up.

Besides, the dishes were also quite appetizing.

When the dishes were served, Ariah already gulped down her saliva a few times.

Seeing that, Jimmy smiled and motioned for her to eat.

Ariah then buried her head in food and ate happily.

As she was having dinner, she thought that if she continued to eat at this rate, maybe she would soon become chubby.

Then, she looked at the man next to her-he was still handsome and attractive. Sitting next to him, she now seemed a little unworthy of him.

Gradually, Ariah lost her appetite and put down her cutlery.

Jimmy was puzzled. "Why aren't you eating?"

"I'm full already. Let's go back when you're finished eating."

Hearing that, he glanced at her again and said nothing. In silence, he finished the meal.

On the way back, Ariah felt a little down. She turned to look at the view outside and started to feel a little sleepy a while later.

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself lying on the bed.

She wasn't at her family's home though. It was her own apartment.

Did Jimmy bring her back here again?

She got up from the bed. As soon as she walked into the living room, she saw Jimmy coming out of the bathroom. Seeing her, he paused drying his hair.

"Didn't I say that I wanna return to my family's home?" she questioned him with a frown.

"Yeah, but it's late already. Besides, isn't it good here?"

He then walked towards her. His body was enveloped with the scent of shower gel and she quickly took two steps back. But before she could get away, Jimmy trapped her into his arms and looked straight at her. "Are you still angry?"

Puzzled, she didn't understand why he brought this up.

"How long are you still gonna be mad at me?" Jimmy threw the towel aside. "You'd better give me an answer today."

It seemed that he was going to go head to head with her again.

Getting no reply, his expression changed suddenly and he threw a glass onto the ground. Then, he stared at her fiercely and snapped, "Say it!"

Ariah was stunned for a moment before her face turned pale and she shivered.

B*stard!

How dare he threatened her!

Was he out of his mind?

On the other hand, Jimmy was cursing David silently.

Back in the office, David had advised him to show Ariah his fierce, manly side as most women would become obedient once they had seen their husbands' virile side.

But obviously, it didn't work on her.

So right now, Jimmy was very furious.

Just as Ariah was about to retort him, Jimmy kneeled down on the shards of glass without hesitation.

Instantly, the air was filled with the smell of blood.

And she was scared out of her wits.

But he acted as if nothing had happened and said determinedly, 'TH kneel here forever until you © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
