Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 587

The nurses were intrigued by the news about a beautiful woman visiting Howard's office that they locked to the nurse station to quench their curiosity.

Ariah was embarrassed at first, but she gradually felt at ease.

Howard was well- known as a womanizer. Although he had many relationships, none of it lasted, and he never brought any of the women to work. Therefore, the nurses were hysterical about this piece of news.

They saw Ariah as Howard's girlfriend.

Ariah was a little flustered at first when stared by the nurses.

However, bit by bit, she felt rather comfortable and pleasant because the nurses were sweet talkers who complimented her and greeted her sweetly.

Howard glared at her with resentment. "Go back and take care of your husband! Why do you have to come to my office?"

"I'm here to be a nuisance." Ariah grinned. "It's such a great opportunity to prank you that I simply can't miss!"

"Why are you doing this to me? I don't have anything against you!" At this point, Howard was traumatized by her.

She snorted, "Among Jimmy's buddies, you're the one who looks down on me the most from the day I got married to him, aren't you? Do you think I don't know that you always speak ill of me?"

Howard looked at her, speechless.

D*mn, women were such petty and horrible creatures.

As they were arguing like children in the office, a nurse knocked on the door and poked her head in. "Dr. Perkins, someone wants to see you."

"Who?"

The nurse shrugged, indicating that she didn't know the person.

Frowning, Howard was about to get up when the door was pushed open followed by a girl's voice, "Uncle Howard, do you miss me?"

An adorable little girl in a pink dress skipped into the office. She was dressed very beautifully from head to toe.

"Aw, my little princess is here." Howard picked Sadie up and planted a kiss on her cheek. "Of course, I miss you. I miss you so much."

Sadie chuckled. "Mommy, Daddy, and Seamus are

all here."

Ariah pinched Sadie's face. "Hey, what about me? Don't you miss me?"

"Auntie Ariah! I miss you, too. Do you miss me?" As usual, Sadie was as sweet as honey.

Ariah giggled at her response. "Where's your mother?"

"She's outside."

Walking out of the office, sure enough, Ariah saw that the nurse station was jam-packed with the nurses, excitedly taking Seamus's picture. They were all mesmerized. "Oh my god, what a

handsome kid. He is so cool. Oh my god, he's so cute I'm gonna die!"

"Quick, help me take a few photos with this handsome little boy!"

With a frown, Seamus hid behind Sharon. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Sensing Seamus's displeasure, Sharon was about to reject the nurses' request when one of them grabbed her hand in a hurry and pleaded, "Miss, is the handsome boy your son? Oh my god, he's so cute. We want to take pictures with him. Can you take it for us, please?"

One of Sharon's weaknesses was that she didn't know how to say no. She turned to Seamus, pursing her lips and relenting, "Baby, they really like you."

Seamus sighed helplessly. "Fine. Hurry up then and we're going to Sadie after we're done."

"Okay, okay."

The nurses nodded profusely, followed by the endless sound of the camera shutters clicking.

Finally, it was Howard who came out of his office, cleared his throat, and shouted with a serious face, "What are you all doing here? Go back to your work!"

The nurses dispersed in a flurry after taking the pictures.

With her eyes widened in surprise, Ariah walked up to Sharon and laughed. "You're getting a little chubby. What did Stanley feed you?"

Sharon's face was filled with concern. "I am?"

"Look at your face, you're as round as a ba..."

Before she could finish, she felt a sharp glare coming from the side with a hint of warning.

It was Stanley who fixed his dangerous gaze on her.

Ariah cleared her throat and blurted, "It's winter now, so it's normal for people to gain weight during this season. Look, I'm getting heavier too. Can't you see?"

Sharon's expression crumpled as if the sky was about to collapse on her. "Am I really getting fat? I also feel that way recently, but Stanley said that I'm not. He even said that I look the best right now. No woman wishes to be fat! No way, I need to start losing weight from today onwards."

Then she vented her anger on Stanley next to her. "It's all your fault. You keep me at home like a pet pig and don't even let me go to work. You do this on purpose, don't you?"

Ariah stuck out her tongue as she witnesses the escalation of the verbal war in front of her. She held Seamus's hand and quickly ran away. "Let's go, Seamus. Let's go and see Uncle Jimmy."

"We should stay away from them too." Howard also escaped the wrath with Sadie in his arms.

Stanley sighed softly and hugged the furious Sharon. "Tell me, where do you think you've gained weight?"

"My face! And my waist! And my belly! I'm fat from head to toe!"

"But I don't think you are."

"That's your opinion!" Sharon punched him with one hand and pinched her waist with the other. "Stanley Jones, I want to work, and I want to lose weight. I'm going for an interview tomorrow!"

She spent her days at home eating and sleeping. Of course, she was gaining weight!

It was not rocket science!

When Ariah pushed open the door to the ward and walked in, Jimmy was sitting on the bed reading a book leisurely. He raised his eyebrows at her and sneered, "I thought you forgot that I'm here."

"How could I forget?" Ariah didn't hear the sarcasm in his tone.

Jimmy threw the book aside and rebuked, "What took you so long then?"

Ariah blinked.

Finally, she realized that he was mocking her.

It was reasonable though. He had to deal with the diplomats and starve for a long time...

Starve?

"D*mn!" Ariah stomped her feet and gasped, "I forgot to buy you food!"

Jimmy looked askance at her.

He would starve to death if he waited for her to bring back some food!

"Come in, Seamus!" Ariah waved behind her. "Come in and keep Uncle Jimmy company. I'm going to buy him something to eat..."

"Never mind. I've already eaten," Jimmy interrupted and sat up straight. "Stanley and the rest are here?"

Ariah nodded and called Seamus in, followed by Howard and Sadie. Sadie leaned over the bed and glanced at Jimmy's bandaged arm with a pouty expression. "Does it hurt?"

"No." Jimmy stroked Sadie's hair gently.

Sadie was so lovable and adorable. He decided that he wanted to have a daughter in the future. Having a daughter was better than having a son.

As something flashed across his mind, he turned to Ariah subconsciously and stared at her belly intensely.

Logically speaking, they had made so much effort into conceiving a child, but why was she not pregnant yet?

Was it because he had not worked hard enough?

It was time to work harder now...

"Jimmy, why do you look so nasty!" Howard waved in front of him. "I have goosebumps!"

Jimmy rolled his eyes. "Get lost!"

"Alright." Howard sat down on the side and played with Sadie.

After a while, Stanley and Sharon walked in. Sharon was obviously still angry with Stanley and was ignoring him. As Stanley glared at Ariah, his expression darkened.

He concluded that Ariah was a scourge who always messed up their relationship whenever she showed up.
