Chapter 209
It had to be said that Stanley was very kind to Reba. Not only did he pick her up from the
hospital, but he also personally sent her back.
Sharon stood at the entrance boredly, watching the two talking inside.
With her head tilted to one side, she sized Reba up. If she hadn''t overheard Reba''s phone
call identally in the washroom, she would never doubt why this beautiful and gentle woman
suddenly chose toe back.
Could it be that she had some ulterior motives?
But Sharon had no idea at all.
She was too far away from Reba in the washroom, so she didn''t hear clearly what Reba said
on the phone, but she could vaguely hear something...
That was why Sharon asked those questions when they were in the restaurant.
Although Stanley was a smart person, in the face of Reba''s sudden return, he must still be in
confusion. He did not even think about why Reba would suddenly return.
Even if his mind was clear, would he suspect Reba?
After all, Reba had sacrificed a lot for him back then...
Upon thinking of this, Sharon felt a headache.
In the living room.
Reba pointed at Sharon who was standing at the entryway. "Is it alright for Miss Cruz to stand
there alone?"
Stanley didn''t even turn his head. "Let her be. Nothing good wille out of her mouth if she
comes in anyway."
Reba pursed her lips and defended Sharon. "I believe Miss Cruz didn''t mean to hurt me."
"You too noticed that she is acting against you?"
"Yes." Reba nodded with a smile. "After all, your rtionship with me is... unusual. She must be
feeling ufortable in her heart."
Stanley narrowed his deep eyes. "The way she treated you in the restaurant... Will you me her?"
"No. She''s just a little girl. There''s no need for me to be angry with her." Reba tried her best to
be generous. "Don''t me her, Stanley. She''s still young, so she doesn''t understand the matter
between us."
Stanley nodded.
Reba''s heart was filled with joy. As expected, Stanley was on her side. Every word he said was
out of consideration for her.
As for Sharon... Although she was the wife of Stanley, she couldn''t bepared to her, after all.
While contemting, Reba quietly stretched out her hand to take Stanley''s hand. "Stanley..."
It seemed that Stanley didn''t see her movement, as he slightly leaned to one side and avoided her.
"Just now in the restaurant, if she offended you, I apologize to you on her behalf."
Reba was stunned.
"She has always been outspoken. I spoiled her too much. At home, she would also say whatever
was on her mind. It might make you ufortable listening to her words, so I''d like to say sorry on
behalf of her."
His passionate look as well as his behavior of protecting Sharon almost hit like a hard p in the
face of Reba.
She bit her lip and sneered, "Why should you apologize if it was she who did something wrong? You
are not her, and you two are not one!"
Stanley looked at her indifferently. "We are husband and wife, so her business is my business."
Reba''s face turned pale. "Why did you marry Sharon in the first ce? Do you love her?"
Aplicated light flickered in Stanley''s eyes. "There''s something I''ve always wanted to ask you."
"What thing?" Reba didn''t pay much attention to his attempt to avoid the question.
"Why did you suddenlye back this time? And how did you happen to appear in the hospital and
also in front of me?" Stanley said in a t tone, but his gaze was sharp.

Reba looked at him in disbelief. "Are you... suspecting me?"
Stanley pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "I''m just curious. Answer my questions."
Hisst sentence was said in a little louder tone.
"Okay, I''ll answer you!" Reba''s eyes turned red and she red at him. "I didn''te back all of
a sudden. In fact, I wanted toe back a long time ago, but I didn''t have a chance! I happened to
be in the hospital because I didn''t know where you lived after I returned, so I could only go and find
Howard. In the end, I didn''t see Howard, but Jimmy. I followed Jimmy to the hospital all the way, that
was why I met you! Are you satisfied with these exnations?"
Reba roared. She was so agitated that her chest rose and fell heavily.
Stanley furrowed his brows. "Are you feeling sick again?"
"No!"
Reba avoided his hand that was reaching out to her and answered with a pale face, "I''m fine!"
"Are you angry?" Stanley took back his hand and stood up straight. "I can apologize."
Reba bit her lip and insisted, "I''m not..."
Tall and slender, Stanley stood there silently and his thin lips were tightly pursed. Reba paused.
She covered her chest and stood firm. After a while, she continued, "I don''t me you, really. I just
me myself for noting back earlier. Even if it''s just two years earlier, you wouldn''t have
married another woman, and we could have a chance..."
Reba could not help but want to grasp his hand.
Stanley, who had been standing still, took two steps back to avoid her movement.
Reba froze.
"Have a good rest." Stanley leaned to one side. A shadow cast under his long eyshes. "I''ll have
to go first."
Reba subconsciously stretched out her hand to pull him. "Stanley..."
Stanley tilted his head.
Reba looked at him with her teary eyes full of emotions.
Suddenly, a clicking sound came from the entryway.
Stanley turned his head to look in the direction of the sound. Sharon was standing there, gnashing
her teeth. "Did I disturb you two? Oops! I''m sorry, please continue!"
When he heard that, Stanley pinched his brows with his hand. Of course, he could tell that she was
making cutting remarks.
Withdrawing his wrist from Reba''s grasp, he strode towards the jealous woman.
Sharon turned around and ran off in anger.
Stanley closed the door behind him when he left. Reba stood there, glued to the spot for a long
time.
Sharon flipped out as she walked.
"Scumbag! F*cking scumbag!" she cursed.
Stanley dared act intimately with Reba in front of her. Who knew, when she was not around, the
two of them might do something even worse!
Losing her temper, she even felt like hitting him!
In a fit of rage, she destroyed a lot of flowers and nts along the way. When Stanley chased after
her, he could see that her little body was burning with fire even from a distance.
He strolled over to her and stopped in her way. "Do you know you''ll be fined for damaging public
property?"
Sharon was so furious that she had to resist the urge to kick him. "Get out of my way!"
"What did you say?" His face suddenly darkened.
"I told you to scram! Didn''t you hear me?" The irascible woman even had the nerve to yell at him.
Stanley''s temple suddenly throbbed. "Whafs wrong with you? Didn''t you see what happened just
now? I didn''t do anything."
"You guys were holding hands, yet you said you didn''t do anything?"
Stanley raised his eyebrows. "Do you really want to fuss over these with me? How many times
Shawn has kissed you? Count on your own."
Right then, a sense of guilt overcame Sharon and her neck shrank like a tortoise. However, she
suddenly felt that she was being such a coward, so she immediately straightened her back and
refuted, "Shawn is like my older brother. Also, there is no more affection between us. What about
you? You obviously have sinister motives towards Reba!"
