Chapter 150: Six Months Later
It had been six months since Sarah gave Charles one last chance at the airport. They now were living
happy and in love, far away from Christina and Emma. Their life had finally turned peaceful again, even
though Charles was very busy maintaining two companies.
Christina was serving a 3-year prison sentence, and Emma had gone to travel.
Every night when Charles came home late, he looked exhausted to the point that he could hardly open
his eyes. Sarah felt bad for him, but there was nothing she could do to alleviate his workload.
As the only son, Charles was responsible for continuing the family business. He was now the head of
both Thomas companies, and Sarah understood what he was going through.
Previously she had been furious when he mentioned that his aunt would help to raise their children
when he was busy at work, she had felt it very irresponsible of him to want to escape his parental
duties. But now she started to understand him better and knew that he had thought it through at that Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
time and knew what he was talking about.
At that time, she didn’t understand him and had been so angry at him. Seeing how busy he was now,
she realized and stopped arguing about it. Once Charles noticed that she accepted the idea, she
seemed to feel guilty about leaving her home alone so often.
One day after he came home, he grabbed her hands and said. “Sarah, I’m sorry I should make more
time to be with you! You must be lonely every day in this big house with nobody except the
housekeeper, right?”
Sarah shook her head and laughed. She felt relieved with complex emotions, tears almost coming up
her eyes as she answered. “I suddenly understand one thing. The reason why we fought so often was
not that we weren't secure enough with each other, it was because we didn't properly communicate.
"For example, about how to raise our children while growing the company. If I had thought more about
you, maybe we wouldn’t have had so many problems. Carrie told me once the most important thing
between couples is knowing how to communicate with each other!”
Charles also laughed and responded. “I didn’t consider you enough either at the beginning, but after
you were kidnapped, I started to understand that I had been too self-centered. It was you who made
me change my view of life and taught me to be more considerate and appreciative toward others!
Thank you for giving me the chance to make it up to you. I can’t imagine if I had lost you. Devastated
and in pain, I realized how much I really loved you!”
Looking at his loving eyes, Sarah couldn’t help but laugh, patting him lovingly. “You’re so sweet, we
have been together for a while now, and you still love me this much? You make me shy!”
She was joking, but her words were full of happiness. Charles laughed too. Suddenly he pulled her
closer and wrapped his arms around her as he whispered in her ear, “Don’t you know that I love you
more and more every day? Sometimes even when I'm in my office, I can't stop thinking about you!”
“What do you think of? What do you imagine?” Sarah leaned closer against his arms.
Charles looked at her with passion-filled eyes. Smiling, he said in a low voice, “I always miss you. I
want to snuggle you in my arms, kiss me, feel your breath on my skin… I want you to be crazy. I want
you to be soft and melt in my love… I want to touch your body, your lips, smell your fragrance… indulge
in your endless charms… ”
“You're such a bad guy!” Sarah hit him gently against his shoulder, then sat up and said, “If you
continue, I won’t talk to you anymore,…” as she looked at him with passion.
Charles suddenly pulled her back and started to kiss her, keeping her from saying anything else. He
pinned Sarah over the sofa, covering her with his body, and gradually made her lose control over
herself under his touch. Finally, she put her hands on his neck and surrendered to him.
Charles whispered in her ear, “Let's have another child. This time, I won't hurt you…”
Sarah was in a daze. She didn’t hear him clearly since he was kissing her and just murmured
something. Finally, Charles took her upstairs and led her into the paradise of love.
Their passion was like fuel poured over a dim fire. When he touched her, the dim light in her exploded
into a full-fledged wildfire, all-consuming and all-inclusive. Sarah felt how Charles longed for her, but
even in the most ardent moment, he cared for her tenderly and asked her repeatedly. “Does it hurt? Are
you comfortable?”
She noticed Charles’s considerate actions. He used to be mad and overbearing during sex with other
women, but now he was different. He cared for her and considered her feelings with a very gentle
touch. She felt how deeply he loved her and cared for her.
In return, Sarah let herself go to meet all his needs too. She could give him everything he wanted
without hesitation.
Finally, they both reached their ecstasies. It was not until midnight that Sarah eventually fell asleep.
While she was drifting off to sleep, Charles held her gently and whispered in her ear. “Sarah,
tomorrow… Should we go to visit my mother?”
His words hit Sarah like a thunderbolt back to reality. Not wanting to answer, she pretended to be too
far asleep to care. In fact, when she heard Christina's name mentioned, she still felt frightened. She
didn't know how to get along with her.
Maybe it was because Sarah still couldn't forgive Christina for what she had done to her. Over the past
six months, Charles had visited his mother several times, but Sarah had never gone with him. Sarah
didn't even ask Charles about his mother after his visits. Charles knew how she felt about his mom and
hadn't pressured her.
Unexpectedly, he now asked her to come with him to visit his mother.
Sarah knew that it was difficult for Charles to be between them. Not wanting to get into an argument,
she just vaguely answers, “Um…” Then she pretended to fall asleep, ignoring his request.
