Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 651

Ariah nodded and muttered, "Yeah... I'm fine."

She was not wounded at all.

But Kobi was lying in a pool of blood.

Howard helped him to stop the blood before ordering someone to carry him downstairs. "Be careful!"

Ariah wanted to help, but Howard chased her away. "Don't cause any more trouble. Go, look for two people and bring Emily down. The ambulance will be here any minute."

"Alright."

With a nod, she then went to call Ben over to help her getting Emily downstairs.

Halfway through, she thought of Jimmy and looked back at him. "Jimmy..."

"Go to the hospital with Howard first. I'll clean up the mess here."

Jimmy stood by the window, enveloped in the light. Ariah couldn't see his expression clearly, but she seemed to see him smiling as he said, "Go, I'll be right there." "Alright, see you soon then!"

"Yep."

Ariah left with Ben.

Then, Jimmy glanced at Kevin, who was lying on the ground. Without any expression, he snorted...

In the hospital-

Sitting on the bench outside the operating room, Ariah had gradually calmed down now.

On the way here, Ben had been making calls, probably to contact with Jimmy.

"Where is Jimmy now?"

When Ben came back from answering another call, Ariah finally asked.

"Capt. is on his way here and he asked me to look after you in the meantime." Ben sat down on the bench opposite her. "Ariah, you don't look well. Are you all right?"

Ariah just nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine."

With a pause, she then asked, "How's it going? Is Kevin dead now?"

Kevin had fired at her and Kobi blocked the bullet for her. At the same time, Ben and the others also shot at Kevin.

"Nah, when the ambulance arrived, he was still breathing. Capt. said that he was a tough guy."

Hearing that, Ariah was slightly surprised. "Really?

He's indeed tough then."

Ben commented nothing.

"Ahem, what I mean is, he's quite lucky, isn't he?"

With muffled laughter, Ben said, "Well, whether he's lucky or not, this time, he's definitely put into jail."

Ariah agreed. Just then, the door of the operating room was opened.

Howard came out, followed by a nurse. He took off his blood-stained gloves and his mask, saying, "Follow me."

Ariah hurried over.

"Emily is fine, so is Kobi. Emily's wound is not serious and she can be discharged in a few days. However, Kobi was shot in the abdomen, so he needs a few more days to recover."

Instantly, Ariah was relieved. "Good to hear."

Howard gave her a sly smile. "You must be quite touched, eh?"

"Huh?" Ariah didn't understand.

"Kobi took a bullet for you. How touching is that! There are not many men who would risk their lives to take a bullet for someone else!" Howard gave her a meaningful look and continued, "If I were you, I would be really touched."

Hearing that, Ariah gritted her teeth. "Stop spouting nonsense!" "What? What did I say wrong?"

"Oh, shut up!"

"I'm telling the truth."

But now...

Her eyes were filled with emptiness...

"Emily..."

Ariah called out to her.

"Yeah?"

Puzzled, she opened her eyes and glanced at Ariah.

"Well..." Ariah wanted to speak to her about something, but eventually, she just exhorted, "You should take good rest tonight. I'll keep you company."

With a hesitant look, Emily just nodded and closed her eyes to rest.

After that, Ariah stayed in the ward. A long while later, the door was suddenly pushed open, to which she got woken up.

She turned around and saw a tall figure standing at the door, staring at her deeply.

It was Jimmy.

"When did you come?" Ariah lowered her voice and walked towards him.

"Just a while ago." Jimmy then glanced at Emily on the hospital bed, asking, "How is she?"

"She's fine. Just now, she woke up a little and then fell back asleep again."

"I see."

"Are you done with your work?"

Jimmy nodded.

Moistening her lips, she then asked, "Well, how's it going with Kevin?"

Jimmy stared at her lips for a while, frowning. Without saying anything further, he took her hand and said, "Come with me."
