Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 862

Stunned, Elaine asked, "You... You've figured it out?"

"Well, although I really want to continue to be selfish and force you to be with me whether you like me or not, it will be unfair to you." Then, he reached out and stroke her face. "In that case, you will only end up hating me, so I should let go. From now onward, I will not have feelings for you anymore, do you get it?"

Suddenly, her eyes reddened. "Thank you, Dr. Perkins."

"Silly girl." Softly, Howard rubbed her face. "From now on, enjoy your time with Vincent because I know that he is treating you sincerely. Even if he is a b*stard, I can rest assured as long as he treats you sincerely."

When she heard his words, she was choked with sobs.

Indeed, Howard was really very kind to her.

It was very lucky of her to have met him in her life.

After a long time, he was still wiping her tears, and he still couldn't stop them. No matter how he coaxed her, no matter what he said, her tears were like the water from a tap that was turned on, and they just couldn't stop.

Helplessly, he said, "Others might think I'm bullying you..."

"No, you didn't bully me. It's all my fault..." As she sobbed, she said, "Dr. Perkins, you are so good. I'm sure you will definitely meet a girl who would like you very much in the future!"

However, Howard didn't say anything because she was the best girl that he had ever encountered.

Unfortunately, she did not like him.

When he thought of how she would marry another man and have children in the future, he couldn't help but feel a slight pain in his heart. As he endured that feeling, he changed the topic. "Okay, stop crying already. Don't you want to know why I would suddenly appear here?"

It was an effective trick. As expected, she stopped and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I was here since early morning. When I arrived, I heard the news that you were missing. So, I went to your house with Vincent. Of course, your sister refused to tell us your whereabouts, but Vincent used some tricks on her. In the end, she finally told us that it was Allen who kidnapped you."

Bitterly, Elaine smiled because that really was Vincent's style of getting things done.

"He didn't let me follow him because he was afraid that I would drag him down. After that, I received a message from Allen, and I was worried about you, so as soon as he left, I secretly went to the bank to get some money..." With a smile, he continued, "I filled more than half of the bag with paper because one million is a lot of cash, and I would need to make an appointment to get total cash of one million. Besides, I don't have time for that..."

Happily, she praised him, "Dr. Perkins, you are so smart."

It made Howard smile.

Then, both of them fell silent.

After a long time, she lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, Dr. Perkins."

Taken aback, he asked, "Why are you apologizing?"

"I left without a word, and I didn't answer your calls and texts. You must be very angry about it..."

"At first, I was really angry, but after I put myself into your shoes and thought about it, I was no longer angry." Softly, he sighed.

At that moment, she felt even more guilty and asked, "Where is your grandfather? Is he feeling better?"

"He's much better now. He was discharged from the hospital, and he is now resting at home."

"Okay." With a sigh of relief, Elaine thought for a moment and asked him, "When do you plan to go back?"

Immediately, Howard teased, "I've only just arrived, and you're already trying to chase me"

"That's not what I meant. What I mean is that... I'm afraid that Vincent would cause you trouble if he were to wake up," she answered hurriedly.

"You're afraid that he would cause me trouble? I was the one who saved his life. How would he dare to cause me trouble?"

"He is a person who is cold-blooded and has no feelings at all. I'm afraid that he won't even be grateful for what you've done, and he might continue to take revenge on you after he wakes up. After all, your grandfather had done even more terrifying things to him before...."

Suddenly, her words stopped as she had forgotten that Howard still had no idea about the past.

Anxiously, she looked at him.

Meanwhile, Howard leaned against the chair and said, "I've got to know about everything that had happened in the past. I also know that he and I are brothers."

Taken aback, she asked, "Did your grandfather tell you about it?"

"Yes. After he was discharged, he told me everything. I was shocked to hearthat, and I didn't expect that such a thing would happen in the past..." Slowly, he closed his eyes. "One of the reasons that I came here was that I knew that Vincent would be here, and I want to apologize to him on behalf of my grandfather..."

It didn't occur to her that he knew everything.

"Well, don't think about these things for now. Now you should take good care of yourself." With a smile, Howard said, "If Vincent doesn't treat you well in the future, remember to come to me. Do you understand?"

However, she shook her head and answered, "I admit that I like him, but I don't want to be with him."

Stunned, he asked, "Why?"

"Although I like him, it's not a must for me to be with him. Dr. Perkins, I don't want to get in a relationship now. For now, I want to further my studies."

Shocked, he asked, "Further your studies?"
