Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 855

After she got the question out of her mouth, she could sense that Vincent's smile was an evil one.

All of a sudden, she felt that something wasn't right.

Patting the spot next to him, he ordered, "Come here."

She didn't dare to go over because his stare felt off.

Frowning, he asked, "Didn't you hear what I said?" "Just tell me here if you have something to say..." "Come here!"

Scared, Elaine shut her mouth.

Hesitating for a moment, she finally decided to walk over.

After all, he poured out all his deepest secrets to her earlier, so she had to give him some sweet talk in return.

As long as he didn't do anything over the line, she didn't mind.

Walking towards the couch, she plopped down beside him.

Glancing at her, he raised his brows and questioned, "Why are you shaking?"

"I... I'm not..."

"Are you afraid?" He stared at her with heavy eyes. "Are you afraid that I'll do something bad to you?"

Shooting him a glare, she questioned, "Will you?"

He merely smiled in response.

Instantly, Elaine felt chills down her spine, seeing his eerie smile.

All of a sudden, he brought a laptop out of nowhere and turned on the screen. "Watch some movies with me."

Not uttering a reply, she kept quiet.

That was it?

Was that what his first request was?

Initially, she thought that he was going to do something bad to her. Never did she expect that he would request to watch a movie.

Guess it was just a false alarm.

Breathing a sigh of relief, she inquired, "Oh, okay. What do you want to watch?"

"What do you like?"

"Ohm, what about a romance movie?"

"Sure."

Leaning towards the laptop, he entered the website. He then picked a short film and played it.

Although it was very strange for them to sit on the couch while watching a movie together, she found it acceptable.

This was what she could do in return for him after he had confessed about his past to her.

Though she was a little uncomfortable at first, she slowly immersed herself in the movie.

The movie was heartbreaking. The main characters were in a love- hate relationship, and their acting was so on point that she ended up investing her emotions in it. By the end of the movie, she was in a pool of tears.

"How could you cry watching a scripted plot?" Vincent found her ridiculous.

Annoyed, she exclaimed, "That's your problem. It was such a touching movie, how can you not cry?!"

Seeing her reaction, Vincent was speechless.

The last time he saw her crying was probably when she was at the apartment with him. That time, she was crying out of fear, but this time, she was in tears because of a different reason. He felt different emotions when he saw her cry.

The first time he saw her cry, he felt distressed; this time, however, his heart softened.

She was cute.

He thought.

Noticing that he had been staring at her, Elaine felt embarrassed. "What are you doing? Why are you looking at me?"

"Are you done crying?"

Pulling out the tissues from the box on the table, he handed them to her. "Do you want to bawl your eyes out?"

In response, Elaine rolled her eyes at him.

All of a sudden, Vincent wrapped his arms around her shoulders and pulled her close to him. Falling into his embrace, she stiffened, then she squirmed in an attempt to get out. "Let go!"

"Stop moving!" He pressed her down and ordered with a husky voice.

Men were always stronger than women. She couldn't get out of his grip no matter how much she struggled. It was as if she was struggling like a trapped animal, unable to move at all.

Out of fear, she began to tremble again. She couldn't help but feel afraid that he would hurt her.

Instead, Vincent picked her up and held her closely in his arms. One hand on her waist, he moved his other hand to scroll on the laptop.

"Watch another one with me."

Shaking with fear, Elaine stuttered, "Let, let me go... I, I want... to watch... from the other side..."

"It's more comfortable like this," his hoarse voice rang above her head. "Didn't you promise that you'll date me? The first thing a couple should do is to have physical contact with each other. Is it wrong for me to hug you?"

Unable to rebut, she kept quiet.
