The Contract Marriage

Chapter 34

Chapter 34 You don’t Want to see Me?

David looked at her angrily.

Sarah heard his words and looked away. She fell silent for moment before smiling. “I treat you as my brother. How can I marry you?”

David immediately looked at her excitedly. “Why not? When I left a few years ago, I told you. When I make a name for myself, I will definitely come back and compete fairly with Julian. Sarah, I have really worked hard these few years. I have opened restaurants in many cities. But when I can confidently stand in front of you, you are already married? Why didn’t you wait for me? Why?”

Sarah heard his words and a layer of mist appeared in her eyes, blurring her vision.

She liked Julian for nine years, but she never thought that when Julian betrayed her, David would still be so persistent and wait for her!

Life was sometimes like melodramatic TV series. When fate forced you to a dead end and you made a choice, it would put another path in front of you…

Looking at the excited David, she forced a smile. “Mr. David, thank you! Maybe we are not fated…”

“Who said you are not fated? I know you haven’t had your wedding with that man yet. I don’t care if you’re married to him or not! Sarah, there is still time for everything. As long as you are willing to take a step forward, I don’t care about the past! Sarah…”

Sarah looked up at his burning eyes and her heart was slightly shaken.

But thinking about it, if she really abandoned Christian before the wedding, then what was the difference between her and Vivian?

Even though Christian had a bad temper and kept looking for trouble with her, she could not let him suffer the blow of being abandoned again!

No! She absolutely could not!

“Mr. David, listen to me…” Sarah gently pushed him away and looked at the sea in the distance. She said faintly.

“You know the relationship between my family and Cooper family. Nine years ago, when my father passed away, he donated his cornea to Julian. In fact, my father always treated Julian as his son. It was my father’s wish to marry into the Cooper family. Although the person I married wasn’t Julian, although my father passed away, his wish was still not fulfilled. I can’t let his last wish fail.”

“No matter what path Christian and I will walk in the future, I must marry into the Cooper family. I am not doing this for anyone else, but for my father. Do you understand?” C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Everyone thought that she agreed to marry Christian because she wanted to take revenge on Julian and Vivian. However, only she knew in her heart that the moment she made her choice… For what!

“Sarah, there is no father in the world who does not wish for his daughter to be happy. If Uncle Wilson knew that you were married to a man you don’t love, do you think he would be able to rest in peace?”

“Even if he once wanted you to marry into Cooper family… He only thought that way because he saw that you had a good relationship with Julian. He had passed away nine years ago. He didn’t know what had happened! If he knew that you had made such a choice… He definitely won’t feel at ease!”

Sarah nodded in agreement. “You are right. Father has passed away for too long. But you forgot that there is another person who cares about this matter. That was my mother. Julian’s matter had already broken her heart. I can’t hurt her again!”

Sarah raised her head and looked at her nose as she spoke. She pulled out a smile and said, “Mr. David, you just came back today. Let’s not talk about this anymore, okay?”

David knew that she was not in a good mood, so he nodded and gently held her shoulders. He said slowly, “Can you promise me one thing?”

Sarah immediately nodded and looked at him.

“Sarah, if your marriage is not happy, you must remember to come back to me. No matter when, as long as you turn around, I will wait for you here!”

Sarah’s tears immediately gushed out, “Mr. David…”

David raised his hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes. He looked at her apologetically and smiled. “In the past, I liked to see your smile. I did not expect that on the first day I came back. I made you cry. I am sorry…” Then he reached out and held her gently in his arms. His eyes also turned red.

From the seaside to the basement of the residential area, Sarah was silent all the way. It was not that she did not want to say, but she did not know how to say it.

When the car stopped downstairs, David saw Sarah open the car door and grab her arm. He could not bear her to leave!

“Sarah…”

Sarah turned around and forced a smile on his face. “Mr. David, I am really happy to see you back today. I am going up first.”

After saying that, she broke free of his big hand, pushed open the car door, and got out of the car. She smiled and shook her hand lightly before turning around and running into the unit door.

Her tears also silently fell the moment she turned around…

David watched her back disappear into the corridor. He raised his hand and smashed it heavily on the steering wheel.

Due to David’s appearance, Samantha was in a good mood during the dinner. Thinking back to how she had looked down on the little boy, who had grown up, and how he had become an outstanding young man in the blink of an eye, and how he even made a decent career, she was very happy for him in her heart.

“I didn’t expect after not seeing David for a few years, he would become so capable and even open a restaurant. Mom is really happy to see him today!” Samantha could not help but sigh as she ate.

Sarah suppressed the bitterness in her heart and looked at her mother with a smile, “Yes! Mr. David had always been very good. I also didn’t expect him to be so successful.”

Samantha smiled and nodded. She did not notice the change in Sarah’s expression. She smiled and said, “I also do not know which family’s girl would be so lucky to be able to find a man like David. Her life in the future will definitely be very happy.”

Sarah lowered her head and picked up some vegetables and put them in her mouth. She chewed without knowing the taste, “En, she will definitely be very happy…”

Samantha looked at her daughter and stopped her actions.

“That’s right. Previously, I was still thinking about who will send you to Christian’s hands when you and Christian hold a wedding. It was father who sent his daughter. Sigh, you father passed away early. Coincidentally, David came back. I think we should let him come!”

Sarah immediately looked up at her mother. “Mom, he’s not married yet. How can we find Mr. David for this kind of thing? No!”

Ask David to send her to Christian’s hand?

How could she be so heartless?

“Why not? He’s your brother. Although you are not related to him by blood, he has always had a good relationship with you since young. As your Big Brother, what is wrong with him doing this kind of thing?” Samantha looked at her daughter in confusion and asked back.

“Mom, let me tell you the truth. I won’t wear a wedding on the day of my wedding! That’s why there’s no need for this process!” Hearing her mother’s words, Sarah could only come up with another reason.

“Why don’t you wear a wedding dress? How can you not wear a wedding dress when you are getting married? Besides, what are you wearing if you are not wearing a wedding dress? Could it be that you are wearing this kind of dress to hold a wedding with Christian?”

Samantha immediately got angry when she heard her daughter’s words. No matter what, marriage was a big thing in life. When her daughter got married, she didn’t even have a wedding dress, so how could she explain to her deceased husband?

“Mom, the wedding dress that Christian ordered was for Vivian to wear. Do you think I will be happy after wearing it? That’s why I have discussed with Christian. I am not wearing the wedding dress!”

Samantha sighed and nodded when she heard her words. “Yes! Why did I forget about this? That woman’s wedding dress must not be worn! Sarah, Mom knows that you have been wronged in this marriage. You don’t blame Mom, right?”

Sarah looked at her mother and forced a smile, “Mom, how can I blame you? This marriage is something I want to marry myself!”

“En, that’s good… That’s good.”

Sarah looked at her mother’s expression and didn’t say anything.

That night was a little difficult for Sarah. David’s sudden appearance caused her heart, which she had spent a lot effort to sort out, to be thrown into chaos again.

David and Christian’s face kept flashing in front of her eyes. One was warm under the sun, while the other was cold to the bone.

She even thought of going to Christian tomorrow to explain it to him. She would tell him that she regretted it and that she did not want to get married! Let’s go our separate ways…

But this kind of thought only flashed by in a flash!

If it was anyone else, she would have the courage to tell him. But he couldn’t!

He was different from others. He could not walk normally and already been abandoned once. Vivian’s betrayal had already dealt a heavy blow to him! She could not like Vivian and abandon him again! Especially at this time!

She could not do it! She really couldn’t do it!

No matter how difficult it was, she had to persist for three months!

Three months!

If she divorced Christian after three months… Would she be able to…

Sarah couldn’t help but want to scold herself when this thought popped up in her mind.

Mr. David was such a good person. He should have his own happiness. How could you think so selfishly, Sarah?

After breakfast the next day, Sarah thought that she should be fine for the next two days. She picked up her phone and called Christian. She wanted to discuss with him that next two days she would not be over for the time being!

“Christian, the wedding preparations should be almost done. I think I won’t be going for the next two days, right?” She really didn’t want to see that person. When she thought of that cold face, all her good mood disappeared.

“You don’t want to see me before we get married? Or Did you see me sitting in a wheelchair and feel uncomfortable?” Christian’s words were as cold as ever, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his words.

“Don’t speak nonsense! I don’t think so!” Sarah was really speechless towards this man. Why did he always distort her thoughts? She had never looked down on him because he was a person in a wheelchair.

“Then come here!”

Sarah hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement. “Okay!”

After hanging up the phone, Sarah held the phone and thought for a while. If she went to his apartment today, there would not be many things in the fridge. It seemed that before she went to Christian’s apartment, she still had to go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables and meat. If he insisted on going to the supermarket with her like the day before yesterday…

If he continued to make things difficult for her for no reason, she really wouldn’t able to take it. When she thought of this, she took her bag and walked out the door.
