The Contract Marriage

Chapter 99 Don’T Tell Me That Sarah Is Your Girlfriend

Sarah’s heart warmed with his words. She was completely moved. But now she was at her home. Being hugged by him like this made her uncomfortable.

She reached out and pushed him away, “My mother is still in the room.”

David let go of her and smiled. “How is Auntie?”

“Much better.”

“I will take her to the hospital with you in the afternoon to get an IV drop. I will make delicious food for you this afternoon.”

David picked up the stuff he brought and walked into the kitchen as he spoke. Sarah followed him in.

The expression on his face looked like the male owner of this house. Her heart was filled with an indescribable feeling.

David ran a restaurant so it was very easy for him to make a sumptuous lunch. In less than an hour, he made a table full of dishes and placed it on the table.

Samantha wasn’t feeling well. But she insisted on eating some. When they were eating lunch, Samantha saw David continuously picking food for Sarah. She could more or less feel the unusual atmosphere between the two of them, but she didn’t say anything.

After lunch, Samantha returned to her room. When she went in, she called Sarah in.

Once the mother and daughter entered the room, Samantha motioned to close the door before walking to the bedside and lying down.

Sarah closed the door and sat beside her mother. She gently held her mother’s hand and asked, “Mom, what do you want to say?”

Samantha looked at her and asked, “Sarah, what do you think about David?”

“He’s quite good. He is handsome and has a good temper. Furthermore, he has a successful career now.”

Samantha nodded. “Yes, David is a rare good person. Ever since you have been away, he often came to see me. Every time he came, he would take some things. Sometimes I think… If I had such a son, how happy would I be?”

Samantha had a very good person of David.

“He is indeed a good person. But why are you suddenly talking about this?”

Samantha looked at her thoughtfully and slowly said, “David is a good young man. But we can’t order him around like this. After all, you are married and you have a husband. David is still single. If he comes here often, it will make gossip. When it happens, what will I answer to Christian and his family? So in the future, you try to keep some distance from him.”

Samantha’s words made her feel uncomfortable, but she also understood that her mother’s words made sense. When she thought of she and Christian would be break up in half a month’s time, she nodded. “Mom, I’ll listen to you.”

As long as she persisted for half a month, all of her problems would be solved.

David was not an outsider. He was someone who had liked her for nine years.

But these words could not be said now.

Samantha nodded and looked at her, “How have you been in Cooper family during this period of time? Have you been well?”

Sarah smiled when she heard this, “Mom, I am pretty good. Christian’s family is very considerate of me.”

“Yes, with Ethan around, I know others will not treat you badly. Where is Christian? How is he?”

“He treats me very well.”

“Then why didn’t he come back with you? Didn’t he take half a year break?” Samantha looked at Sarah in puzzlement.

“He received a call from army and went back. He said he had something important to do and would come back in half a month’s time. So I will stay here in this period of time. When he comes back, I will go with him.” Sarah dodged Samantha’s gaze as she spoke.

“That’s good. How is Christian’s leg?”

“It’s pretty good. Mom, you don’t know. Christian can now walk with crutches. When the people of Cooper family saw him that night, they were very happy. He would be able to walk like a normal person in a short period of time.”

“Really? That’s great. I always thought Christian’s legs wouldn’t be able to stand up for the rest of his life.”

When Samantha heard this news, she instantly became excited. From the day Sarah married Christian, she had always felt guilty towards her daughter. She did not expect that it had only been a short period of time, Christian’s leg would be healed. How can she not be excited?

She held her daughter’s hand tightly, as tears flowed out. “Sarah, I am really too happy. In the future, you have to treat Christian well.” Samantha’s tears flowed as she said with great emotion. “You dad in heaven will be very happy seeing you and Christian happy together.”

Sarah helped her mother wipe her tears and patted her hand. But her heart was filled with mixed feelings.

“Let David go back first. He has such a big hotel and he is very busy. You have to thank him when he leaves.” Samantha reminded again.

“Okay, Mom you can rest first. I’m going out.” Sarah stood up obediently.

“I’m fine. Go quickly.”

Sarah nodded, got up and walked out. She saw that David had already cleaned up all the food in the kitchen and even the dining table. She immediately walked over.

“Mr. David.”

David walked in front and smiled. “Is your mother fine?”

“She’s fine. She is just felt that she is always troubling you. She felt a little apologetic in her heart.”

“She’s too polite.” David smiled.

“You have been busy for so long today. Go back and rest for a while.” Sarah really could not say some words.

“Okay. Then you should also have a good sleep. I will come over to pick you up at around five o’ clock to bring Auntie to the hospital.”

Sarah nodded and didn’t say anything.

David left Sarah’s house and drove back to the hotel. The moment he opened the door, he saw his mother sitting on the sofa and drinking water. David walked over with a smile.

“Mom, why are you here?” David walked over as he spoke. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Hearing this, Mrs. Brown instantly became furious. She smashed the cup to the ground.

“Such a good girl, why don’t you like her? Do you know what Mila’s father does? He is from the city government. Her mother is a university professor. Why don’t you even talk to her? I’m so angry!”

The more Mrs. Brown spoke, the angrier she became.

“Mom, I’m already so old. I have my own aesthetic sense. No matter how beautiful Mila is, that has nothing to do with me. I have a girlfriend. It’s not convenient to bring her to you now. Give me some time. I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory daughter-in-law.” There were some things that he could not say right now.

“You have your own girlfriend? David, you won’t tell me that your girlfriend is Sarah, right? If it is her, I won’t agree to anything no matter what! You better give up in this idea!”

“Mom, what’s wrong with Sarah? Didn’t you always like her?” David asked his mother.

“What’s wrong with me saying this? Isn’t it obvious now? She is already married. And she is married to a cripple. Her mother is really… How can she bear to marry her only daughter to a cripple just for money? Can’t you see it?”

Ever since Mrs. Brown found out Sarah was marrying Christian, she could not understand Samantha.

“Mom, Auntie has her own difficulties. Don’t talk about her like that!”

“Okay. Even if your Auntie has her difficulties, it doesn’t change the fact that Sarah is already married! You are a bachelor and run to her house every day. Aren’t you afraid of others gossiping about you?”

“Mom, didn’t I often eat at Auntie’s house when I was young? At that time, we had a very good relationship with her family. What happened to you now?” Hearing his mother talk about Sarah like this, David was a little unhappy in his heart.

“Don’t think that no one knows that you went to Sarah’s house. The neighborhood they live in is not far from us. I know some of the people inside. Many of them are saying that, your relationship with Sarah is not simple. You go to her house every day like this, my face has already been thrown away by you.”

“I know. In the future, I will try my best to keep a distance with her. But regarding the blind date, you don’t have to worry about me anymore.”

He could not reveal the agreement between Christian and Sarah. Anyway, their marriage was only for a few days. At most, he would insist.

“No! You must go on a blind date! Don’t you know how old you are?” Mrs. Brown immediately retorted when she heard his words. During this period of time, she was constantly hearing the rumors about her son and Sarah. She really could not hold back anymore.

“Mom, I know my own matters!”

“When we go back today, I will call Mila’s mother again. You should prepare yourself mentally!”

“Mom, I don’t like her at all. Can you stop meddling in my matters?” David looked at his mother helplessly.

“I’m your mother. I gave birth to you because I hope you can live a good life. Sarah is a good girl, but she is already married. I do not want you to ruin other people’s marriage.”
