The Contract Marriage

Chapter 62

Chapter 62 Do You Really Want to Go Back with Him?

Christian was the first to break the silence. He looked up at David and said coldly, “I didn’t expect your Big Brother to be so competent. We are so far away from home, but you can still find us!”

David heard his words and blinked. He looked down at him and said. “No matter how powerful I am, I can’t compare to Regimental Commander Cooper!”

Christian smiled faintly. “Is Mr. Brown here to denounce me?”

“I only hope that Regimental Commander Cooper will let Sarah go this time. It is only an agreement between the two of you. She is a pure girl. She does not understand a marriage and what does it mean to a life?”

“Let her go? What did I do to her? Or do you think I can do anything dangerous to her in my current situation?” Christian replied with a sneer.

David also said angrily, “Don’t tell me about your health! Who knows if you are really injured or if you are faking it?”

Sarah heard David’s words and immediately retorted him, “Mr. David, his body is really injured. Don’t talk about him like that!”

When David heard Sarah still speak up for Christian at this time, his heart unconsciously hurt. He looked at her and said with heartache, “Sarah, come with me! What do you want from this kind of marriage? If you told me the truth back then, I would definitely not let you marry him!”

“David Brown, don’t think that just because you are Sarah’s Big Brother, you can speak without restraint in front of me. You can ask Sarah if anyone pointed a gun at her when she walked into the Marriage Registration Centre with me. Did anyone force her to do so on the day of the wedding?”

“You had planned this long ago! Sarah’s thoughts were too simple. I know what you want to do. You want to use Sarah to take revenge. Christian, don’t think that you did it flawlessly. As long as someone has the intention, anyone can see it!”

“You just said that if I really planned it, anyone can see it. Why couldn’t Sarah see it? David, if you like Sarah, just say it!”

“Right! I like her! I want to give her happiness! Is this wrong?”

Sarah bit her lips and looked at David with tears in her eyes, “Mr. David, don’t say anymore…”

David immediately looked at her. “Sarah, as long as you are willing, I will take you away now! He is a soldier. He cannot do anything to you!”

Christian looked at Sarah indifferently. “Do really want to go back with him?”

Sarah looked at Christian, then looked up at David. She looked at David apologetically. “Mr. David, sorry! I have an appointment with him for three months, which is three months! I cannot go against my promise.”

“Sarah!” David looked at her helplessly.

“Mr. David, you go back first today! I really can’t go back with you!” Sarah looked at David with a resolute expression. Even if she really wanted to leave, at a time like this, she could not leave with him.

Ever since she heard about Christian from Military Commander Myers, she felt that this man wasn’t as bad as she thought. Furthermore, his legs had just started to get better. It was even more impossible for her to abandon him at a time like this to search for her own happiness. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

She couldn’t do it!

Because compared to Christian, David was at least a healthy person. Three months might not be much to him, but to Christian, if he suffered another blow, he might not be able to stand up for the rest of his life.

She could not affect his life because of one of her decisions!

“Sarah!” David looked at her excitedly and shouted again. His big hand clenched into a fist unwillingly. He looked at the woman he loved standing there. His heart ached when he saw her standing behind another man.

Christian turned his head and looked at Jayson, who was standing not far away from him. Christian waved at him, and Jayson immediately walked over.

“Jayson, push me to the square over there to take a look! Sarah, you and Mr. Brown haven’t seen each other for few days. There must be a lot of things you want to talk to him about. I will wait for you there. Jayson!” After saying that, Christian ordered Jayson to push him away.

“Yes, Regimental Commander!” Jayson immediately pushed Christian towards the square not far away.

Sarah looked at his back and looked back at David in a dilemma.

David stepped forward and grabbed her shoulders. He looked at her firmly. “Sarah, can you not be so stubborn? Can you come back with me?”

Sarah looked at his burning eyes and shook her head. “Mr. David, I’m sorry! I really can’t go back at this time! Christian is a soldier. He needs help from others now. he just stood up with the crutches. I can’t leave him at this time. Three months passes in the blink of an eye. If we are really fated… We’ll be together.”

“Even if you’re not by his side, I don’t believe that so many people in the army will ignore him. Sarah, I really do not know what you are insisting on.” David listened to her answer and roared. He hoped that he could convince her to leave with him.

“I’m insisting on my promise! I can’t go back on my word. Although, I’m not a soldier or a man, I feel that since I promised him back then, I must persist until the end. Mr. David, don’t try to persuade me anymore. If I really go with you now, even if we walk together in the future, I will feel sorry for him for the rest of my life! I don’t want to have such a shadow in my future life! I don’t want to owe him anything!”

“You definitely don’t understand him. He wants to use you to take revenge on his brother and his fiancée!”

Sarah smiled faintly, “But it is only three months. Furthermore, even if he wanted to take revenge, I am still in the army now. how can he take revenge?”

“You really decided?” Seeing that he could not convince her, David looked at her helplessly and asked.

“Yes, I have already decided. Mr. David, you can go back. I know you feel bad for me. Just treat it as if I went to the hospital to take care of an injured patient. After three months, I will go home.”

“Okay! Since you have decided to persist for three months, then I will wait for you for three months! But you have to promise me one thing!” David compromised at last and held Sarah’s shoulders tightly.

“What is it?”

“Don’t let him touch you! Since you are in an arranged marriage, you must protect yourself at all times, understand?” Actually, he was worried that after they had a relationship, Sarah would never be able to return to his side. To him, it would be a lifetime of pain.

“Don’t worry. He can’t even walk now.” Knowing that he was thinking for her sake, Sarah was not angry. She nodded.

David heard her and reached out to hold her in his arms. He looked at the front and said unwillingly, “Sarah, after three months, as long as you go back, we will go register, okay?”

“If at that time I can still turn back into the original Sarah, I will definitely register and marry with you!”

She did not dare to give him a 100% guarantee as three months was too long. No one could guarantee what would happen during this period of time. Perhaps on a certain day in three months, he would also meet the woman he loved.

“It’s a deal!”

David finally left. Sarah was worried that his body would not be able to hold on, but he still insisted on returning to City W. before he knew about the agreement between Sarah and Christian he could still comfort himself as long as she was happy, he was content.

But now that he knew everything, he could no longer face her calmly. That marriage was just an agreement. He watched helplessly as the woman he liked stood by another man’s side, unable to do anything.

Even in this city, he didn’t want to stay for another minute. He was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to control himself and would run to find her.

Three months, he didn’t know if he could hold on.

Once David left, Sarah sat in Christian’s car and returned to the army. Along the way, she quietly sat beside Christian. Her heart was filled with indescribable bitterness.

In her heart, she was somewhat regretful. Why did she so easily enter the Marriage Registration Centre with the man beside her? Why couldn’t she be more calm?

Three months, when she turned around, could she really be together with David?

Christian had been closing his eyes ever since Sarah got into the car. He did not say a word to Sarah. He only opened his eyes when the car stopped in front of Christian’s house.

Sarah and Jayson helped him out of the car. He sat in a wheelchair and Sarah pushed him into the house. She let him sit down on the sofa. Jayson came in and greeted her before leaving. The moment the door closed, the room instantly quieted down.

It was so quiet that they could hear each other’s breathing.

“Come and sit down!” Christian looked at Sarah who was standing by the side and said softly.

Sarah slightly pursed her lower lip and slowly walked to the seat beside him to sit down.

“Are you feeling very uncomfortable?” Christian grabbed her hand and held it in his palm.

Sarah immediately wanted to pull back her hand, but he held her hand even tighter.

She remembered what David told her and immediately looked at him, “Christian, can we keep some distance?”

Christian smiled faintly and let go of her hand. He looked at her and asked coldly, “Distance? How far? You want to be ten centimeters away from me? One meter? Or ten meters?”

“That’s not what I meant…” Sarah was a little speechless by his question and tried to explain, but she was interrupted by his cold voice halfway through.

“Then what do you mean? Do you think I violated you?”

Sarah immediately shook her head. “No! I mean we cannot be so intimate…”

Christian saw her expression and immediately nodded his head in understanding. “I understand! I’m sorry, it might be my legs that made me rely on you. In the future, I will change it until you are satisfied. I’m hungry, go and cook!”
