Chapter 61 Am I too Useless?
Sarah saw Christian was still fiddling with his new cane, so she packed up everything in the living room and put the dangerous things aside. Then she walked back to the sofa and helped him put the cane under his armpit. She supported him to stand up.
Christian tried to move his feet and found that he could use some strength in his feet. He tried to walk two steps and found that it should not be a problem to walk with this cane. He looked at Sarah and a smile appeared on his face.
“I didn’t expect that I would stand up again.”
“Of course you can stand up. It is only a matter of time.”
Seeing that he finally took the first step, Sarah was secretly happy for him. She happily walked in front of him and encouraged him to continue forward. “Do your best. You have no problem. You can do it.”
Seeing his wife so happy, Christian’s mood improved a lot. He moved his feet and continued to walk forward.
“Yes! That’s right! That’s great!” Sarah had not finished her sentence. Christian staggered and smashed her onto the floor. The two of them fell onto the floor together.
The moment he fell to the ground, Christian subconsciously wanted to hug her, but after losing the support of his walking stick, he fell even faster. So the moment Sarah’s head fell to the ground, Christian put one hand behind her head, but his body heavily pressed on Sarah’s body.
Sarah never would have thought that things would turn out like this. The moment she fell to the ground, she opened her mouth and wanted to shout, but she felt that his facial features suddenly enlarged in
front of her eyes. She closed her eyes tightly. Before she could shout, his lips accurately landed on her lips.
The moment the lips and teeth touched, Sarah’s eyes immediately opened. Looking at the enlarged facial features in front of her eyes, Sarah wanted to say something but unable to. Her arms were pressed against her chest by his body and she forcefully pulled it out. She raised her arm and wanted to push him away. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
But he was over 1.8 meter tall and had a strong physique. There was nothing she could do.
Luckily, Christian pulled his hand back and used his arm to support his upper body. He looked down at her.
“Did I hurt you?”
Sarah’s moved her lips unnaturally and said awkwardly with a red face. “No!”
Since the wedding day until now, other than the time when she took the initiative to kiss him at the wedding, this was the third time this man kissed her!
She originally wanted to maintain some distance from him, but she did not expect that her contact with him would become more and more intimate.
Christian smiled and used his arm to support himself. Then he rolled down from her body and laid on the floor beside her.
Once her body was freed, Sarah quickly stood up and tidied her clothes. She saw that he was still lying on the floor.
Thinking about the kiss just now, Sarah was still somewhat embarrassed.
But after all it was just an accident. She felt a little bitter in her heart. She squatted down next to Christian again and helped him up from the floor.
“Am I too useless?” Christian looked at the walking stick that was thrown to the side. He turned to look at Sarah, who was beside him. The fall just now was more or less a blow to him.
“No way! You are already very good. Don’t forget, today is your first time standing up, and you even took a few steps! Aren’t you the Hero Leader? You will definitely be able to do it!”
Sarah did not admit defeat and took the cane to him. “Christian Cooper, you can definitely do it!”
“If you say I can do it, then I will definitely do it!” Christian listened to her words and supported the walking stick with his hands. He stood up again with her support.
“This time we will take it slow. Don’t be anxious!” Sarah brought him to start training again.
This time, the situation was much better than before. Christian walked to the other side of the living room in one breath, which made Sarah very excited. But she was worried that he would be tired, so she brought a chair over and let him sit down to rest for a while.
Once Christian sat down, he slightly raised his head and looked at Sarah. He reached out his hand and gently held her small hand. Sarah’s face turned red. She wanted to pull it back, but he held it tightly.
“Sarah, thank you!” He looked at her and smiled faintly.
Sarah could not help but smile when she heard his words. Actually, she was genuinely happy for him. She looked at him and said with some emotion. “Before I came here, I’ve always wondered if this Regimental Commander Cooper was born to not know how to laugh. When he smiled, what is he like? Will it be very scary?”
She paused for a moment when she said this. She looked at Christian and said mischievously, “Now I know that Regimental Commander Cooper also knows how to laugh!”
“You’re right. I was born crying. If I was born smiling, then the doctor who gave birth to me would have been scared to death.” Christian joked with her with was very rare.
Sarah was amused by his words. “I didn’t expect you to joke!”
“There is still many things you can’t think of.” Christian said as he looked at the crutch. “I wonder if I can walk myself in three months?”
“It’s still early there must be no problem.”
“I hope so.”
Christian walked back and forth with Sarah’s help. Sarah was worried that his body would not be able to take it, so she helped him to the sofa and sat down. She also poured him a glass of water.
Seeing him drinking the water in one breath and thinking about David coming to find her, she slightly lowered her eyes and bit her lips. In her heart, she was hesitating if she should tell Christian.
“What are you thinking about?” Christian put down the cup and looked at her.
Sarah lifted her head and looked at him in confusion. After a long time, she said, “When I just turn on my phone, I saw a lot of missed calls. There were a few messages from Mr. David, so I called back.”
She looked at him face that was gradually turning cold, she couldn’t continue.
“And then?” Christian did not expect David to chase after him when he arrived at the army. It seemed that David’s feelings for his wife were really deep!
“I have a good friend called Kendall. She told him about the three month agreement between us…”
“And then?”
“When I called him just now, he was already on the highway…”
“On the highway? What does that mean? He wants to come to the army to find you?” Christian frowned and looked at her to ask.
“That’s right. He said he had some nutritional supplements to deliver…”
Christian let out a depressed sigh. He looked at her, who was lowering her head and blaming herself. After a moment of silence, he said, “So it seems that he came this time to bring you back. He will definitely think that I am trying to harm you.”
“I will not leave with him!” Sarah firmly replied.
They had just held a wedding a few days ago. If she suddenly changed her mind and left at this time, it would definitely be a fatal blow to Christian.
Furthermore, she wouldn’t have the face to face her mother and the people of Cooper family when she returned home. Even if David really wanted to take her away, she couldn’t go back with him.
“Did you tell him where our troops are?”
Sarah shook her head. “No! But he knows that the troops are in this city.”
Christian looked at her. “Call him now and ask him to wait for you in the city. Tell him that you will meet him there.”
“Are you sure?” She did not expect him to agree to meet David. So she was more or less surprised.
“I will go with you! Let’s talk about this face to face!”
“He must be very angry right now. You’d better not go!”
Last time in the hotel, she had felt that unusual atmosphere between the two men. Even if Christian was not in good health, she was worried that the two of them would lose control.
“He wants to see my newly wedded wife. If I don’t go, am I still a man?” Christian looked at her coldly and asked.
Sarah was instantly speechless. After a long silence, she finally agreed and nodded. “Okay, let’s go together.”
Three months was a long time. This matter would be placed in front of the three of them sooner or later. The three of them would have to face that kind of awkward situation together sooner or later.
“You go and call him first!” Christian waved as he spoke.
Sarah bit her lips and got up to go back to her bedroom. She turned on her phone again and dialed David’s number again.
David’s car was still speeding on the highway. When he saw that it was Sarah calling he immediately picked up the phone and asked, “Sarah, tell me quickly, where is the army?”
He had to see her today no matter what. He wanted to bring her back to City W and end that absurd three-month agreement.
“Mr. David, I need to go to the city later. Wait for me in the city.”
“Why are you going to the city? I want to see Christian. Tell me where his troops are. I want to go to the army and find him!”
“Mr. David, don’t be stubborn! I won’t tell you! If you agree to meet me in the city, I will go over, if you don’t agree, I will turn off my phone.” Sarah replied ruthlessly.
David, who was on the other end of the phone, sighed. “Sarah, why are you so stupid? I am just going to give you something.” Knowing that she would not easily see him, David changed the topic.
“Kendall has already told me everything. I know about your lunch together yesterday. Mr. David, I will leave in a while.” Sarah hung up without waiting for David’s reply.
David listened to the blind sound in the phone and smashed the steering wheel gloomily. But he did not plan to go back.
Sarah helped Christian change his cloths, and she also changed into a set of summer casual cloths. After all the things were prepared, she helped Christian into the car with Jayson. After a while, the off- road vehicle slowly drove out the military camp and headed towards the direction of the city.
Although Christian’s troops were also in this city, it was very far from the city. The vehicle drove for nearly two hours before finally arriving at its destination.
Jayson first took off his wheelchair, then helped Christian out of the car. After Christian sat down in his wheelchair, Sarah pushed him to the coffee shop where they had agreed to meet.
They hadn’t reached at the entrance, when Sarah saw David pacing back and forth in front of coffee shop. David rushed over from a few hundred miles away from City W. He looked a little worn out. At this moment, he was fiercely smoking a cigarette in his hand.
When he saw Sarah and Christian, he was instantly stunned. After staring at the two of them for a few seconds, he threw away the cigarette in his hand and slowly walked over. His gaze was tightly locked on Sarah’s face. That pair of deep eyes had some unspeakable helplessness and entanglement.
