Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 466

Both of them were silent at the moment.

Ariah only wanted to kick this freakish man to death as she rolled her eyes and regretted bringing him back for dinner.

Putting his hands on her shoulders, Jimmy looked at her and said, "No wonder you never wanted to take me back to the Myers Family. Were you afraid that I would know how they dislike you?"

Although she always verbally hurt people like a hedgehog, she was actually as vulnerable as a newborn.

"It's not that I've never wanted to bring you back to the Myers Family. It's just that you never took the initiative to ask me to come back," Ariah retorted firmly while staring at him.

She and Jimmy had a flash marriage, and they didn't have strong feelings for each other when they got married, which explained their lack of intimacy. Moreover, the Myers Family's status was not as high as that of the Hudson Family, so Ariah couldn't forcefully bring Jimmy back to her family's home.

Jimmy was stunned when he heard that. "Why didn't you ask me then? Ariah, I have always thought that you didn't like me to return to your home, so I tried my best to avoid this topic in front of you. Listen carefully, I know what a husband should do, so please don't think of me as a heartless b*stard."

After a pause, she replied subconsciously, "You're a b*stard to begin with..."

Upon hearing that, Jimmy gritted his teeth and thought how he would deal with her when he got back at night.

Just then, Dakota came down with a pale face. Seeing that her eyes were also red, Ariah frowned and walked over. "What's wrong with you?"

However, Dakota just waved her hand to avoid her gaze. "I-I'm doing well. Don't just stand here. Go to the dining room now. The food is ready."

As she said that, she turned around to go to the kitchen. Ariah quickly grabbed her wrist and asked coldly, "Did Lindsey scold you again?"

"No, no! How can you think so? Lindsey is pampered, but she respects her elders very much. Don't think of her that way. I am fine. Oh, the dishes in the kitchen are ready. Go and cook now."

As Ariah let go of her mother's hand, she touched her forehead in despair. Her mother had been ingratiating herself with the Myers Family for more than ten years. As someone weak and docile, not only would she be bullied, but she would also not be able to retain her dignity.

The dining room was shrouded in silence. Ariah basically did not say anything and only focused on eating. In order to liven up the atmosphere, her mother had always been the one who spoke with Ariah and Jimmy.

Jimmy respected Dakota very much, so he always answered her question promptly.

"Jimmy, you and Ariah have been married for so many years. Don't you plan to have a child?" Dakota asked as she filled a bowl of soup for him.

He coughed when he heard that.

Ariah also coughed at the same time.

She didn't expect her mother to bring this matter up. While she was a little shocked, Jimmy was quite embarrassed. "Um... We still have time."

Thinking that they were just embarrassed to talk about this matter, Dakota smiled and said, "I know that you are all busy with work, so I never mentioned this matter in the first few years of your marriage. Now that you have been married for four or five years, it's time to have a child."

"Yes, we will try."

Ariah was speechless when she heard that.

It was still acceptable if Felix talked about her mother, but she would never allow Lindsey to do the same.

When Ariah came to the Myers Family at ten, she did not receive the slightest warmth from the so-called home. She was detested by the servants and ridiculed by Lindsey, the pampered daughter of Felix.

It didn't matter. She could endure all these tribulations, but everyone had a bottom line. She had already replaced Lindsey to marry into the Hudson Family, so couldn't they be a little bit nicer to her mother?

In order to curry favor with the Hudson Family, Felix had sent her over as a 'gift'. She remembered how Felix had told her, "If you want your mother to gain a firm foothold in the Myers Family, you should do your part here. You are very lucky as the Hudson Family didn't despise you. Therefore, you should please Jimmy and the Hudson Family so that the relationship between the two families can get better."

At that time, Ariah chose to marry Jimmy for her mother, but the outcome was not what she had imagined.

Lindsey did not expect Ariah, who had been holding it in for so long, to explode so unexpectedly. Glaring at Ariah, she yelled, "What right do you have to scold me? She's just a mistress! If it wasn't for our Myers Family's mercy in taking care of the both of you, you would have..."

All of a sudden, everybody heard a crisp slapping sound.

It was Ariah who had given Lindsey a hard slap in return.

Touching her numb face, Lindsey was stunned.

"That's too much!" Felix slammed the table forcefully. Out of his love for Lindsey, he wanted to hit Ariah. Nevertheless, just as he was about to slap her, someone blocked his hand in mid-air.

In an instant, an unbearable pain spread from his wrist, which prompted him to look over. He was shocked to find that Jimmy was staring at him with a pair of dark eyes. Although he was forcing a smile, his expression was glacial. "The sisters are just having a little quarrel. Why are you so angry? That's not good for you."
