Chapter 235
The Contract Marriage
âMom, youâre right.â Christian shook Sarahâs bed with a smile as he spoke. He only stopped when it was at a comfortable angle.
He then opened the Insulating Tube and took out a small bowl. He filled the bowl with some soup and fish meat. He took a spoon and placed some of it on his lips before blowing it.
After feeling that it was not very hot, he handed it to his wifeâs lips and said, âCome. Have a taste of motherâs Heart Plate Fish Soup.â
Sarah heard his words and smiled. She opened her mouth and drank it. The fish soup was fresh and fragrant.
Samantha looked at her daughter and asked, âHow is it? Is it good?â
âMom, it is very good.â
âWe have a few wives in our neighborhood who are almost as pregnant as you. None of them have the same appetite as you. You are six months pregnant yet you can eat anything.â
Samantha heard her daughterâs words and replied with a proud smile.
âHee hee, mom, my child is very obedient every day. . .â Sarah smiled mischievously.
Hearing this, Christian smiled and took some fish meat with chopsticks and handed it to Sarah. Seeing her eat it, he smiled and said, âHe knows that his Dad is not by his side and it is too hard for Mom to take him with her every day, so he is not naughty at all.â
âLike me.â Sarah said happily.
Christian reached out and scratched the tip of his wifeâs nose. âYes, like our familyâs big treasure.â
Sarah looked at him and giggled.
Samantha looked at their blissful appearance and her heart was even happier than the two of them.
Samantha suddenly remembered that Christian said that he would go to the traffic police station to understand the situation of the car accident. She looked at him and asked, âChristian, how was your trip to the traffic police station this morning? What did they say?â
Since her daughterâs accident until now, Samantha really did not know the specifics.
Christian fed his wife as he answered, âMom, it looks like that person was drunk. Sarahâs Ms. Jasmine had already helped look for a lawyer regarding the claim. That person did have a case of car crash and fraudulent insurance. But this car accident happened at the crossroad, so he was not suspected of fraudulent insurance. Moreover, this person usually likes to drink a few mouthfuls, so this time Sarah and the child in her womb were lucky to escape this disaster.â
âOh, how could it be like this? What kind of wine did this killer drink so early in the morning?â Samantha was instantly enraged when she heard that.
âMom, I am fine now. Donât be angry anymore.â Seeing her motherâs angry expression, Sarah could not help but advise her mother.
âYou also call this fine? Your leg is fractured and your head was hit by a slight concussion. There are a few places on your body that have been stitched up a few times. You are a pregnant woman. You are lucky to be able to escape this time. I heard from the doctor that if the position of the crash was just a little bit worse. . . Not to mention the child, even you wonât be able to survive. . . Do you understand?â
Samantha said angrily.
âBut I am fine now. Leave the rest of the matters to Ms. Jasmine to handle. Anyway, she has plenty of time, and I also believe in her. Christian, you are not allowed to go anywhere in these three days. Stay here and accompany me.â
Sarah looked at Christian and said a little coquettishly at the end of her sentence.
Christian smiled. âOkay, I will always be by your side.â
Looking at the expectant look on his wifeâs face, he felt a little guilty. No matter how much he accompanied her, his vacation was only three days.
Sarah immediately smiled happily. âHubby, you are so good.â
Seeing that there was an Insulating Tube beside her, Sarah looked at her mother in confusion. âMom, why did you bring two Insulating Tubes? Is there something delicious?â
âThatâs the food I made for Christian. He has been accompanying you here eats air?â Samantha replied with a smile.
âChristian see, your mother-in-law is too good to you.â Sarah looked mischievously at her mother.
Samantha looked at her daughter reproachfully, âThis child. . .â
âMom, have you eaten yet?â After Christian fed Sarah, he took another Insulating Tube and opened it.
He took out all the side dishes and steamed buns.
âEn, I already ate it before I came. Quickly eat it.â
Sarah looked at Christianâs food and still wanted to eat. Seeing him eat the said a little pitifully. âHubby, I still want to eat. . .â
She ate two peopleâs food by herself now, and her mother had brought an extra amount, but she was still not full.
Christian picked up some food and fed it to Sarah. âEat hard, your body will recover soon after you are full.â
âThen what will you eat if I eat it?â
Christian replied with a smile, âDidnât Mom say so? She told me to eat air.â
âHaha.â Sarah could not help but laugh as she ate. Samantha was also amused by Christianâs words and laughed.
The time slipped by a little bit and after the two of them finished lunch, Samantha did not want to disturb the couple so she carried the Insulating Tube back home.
After lunch, Sarahâs spirit was much better than when she just woke up. She looked at the fruit basket beside her and smiled at Christian. âHubby, I want to eat fruit. . .â
âOkay. Do you want to eat bananas or apples?â
âLetâs eat a banana.â
âOkay.â Christian got up and took a small bowl from the tea table beside him. He then went to the water dispenser and took a bowl of hot water. He walked back to the bed and peeled the banana. He then took a fruit knife and cut the banana into pieces and put them in the hot water.
Although there was a heating system in the room, but in this season, Christian was still afraid of hurting Sarahâs stomach. He felt that the banana was almost hot, so he went to the kitchen to get a small fork and a piece of banana for his wife.
âHubby, you are so good.â Sarah ate the banana in big gulps and looked at Christian with a smile.
Although it was only a small detail, she could feel his deep concern for her.
Christian smiled and passed another piece to her lips. âIs this considered good? Arenât you easily bribed?â
Sarah blinked her big eyes. âWhen I was bribed by you, you didnât even give me a banana peel, okay?â
âAhem, banana peel is not delicious, thatâs why I didnât buy it for you. . .â
âOf course not. At that time, Christian Cooper was very petty. Humph. Sitting in the wheelchair, he still wanted me to buy a box of milk. . .â Sarah pouted and started to flip Christianâs little bill.
Christian held back his laughter. âAt that time, did you hate me?â
âNo, I didnât. I just think you have a bad temper. When the three months are over, I have to divorce you as soon as possible. Who would have thought that I would fall into someoneâs trap. . .â Sarah replied with a smile.
âDo you regret it?â Christian gave another banana to her.
Sarah nodded seriously and seriously. âYes, I regret it. I especially regret it.â
Christian immediately stopped what he was doing and looked at his wife to ask, âWhy do you regret it?â
âRegret why I didnât know you nine years ago?â Sarah said and smiled happily.
Christian dotingly scratched the tip of Sarahâs nose. âIf we had known each other nine years ago, you might not have been able to marry me.â
âWhy?â
âThe fate of humans is often like this. If you had known me nine years ago. . . You might still be thinking about Julian. Sometimes, if you are too close to someone, it has a negative impact. Actually, many times, I am still very grateful to Julian. Because if he hadnât abandoned you, I wouldnât have married my baby. Donât you think so?â
âIt seems like whatever you say makes sense. .â
âBecause your husband is commander.â
âMilitary Commander Cooper.â Sarah said mischievously.
âHubby.â Christian said seriously.
âMilitary Commander Cooper.â
âCall me Hubby.â
âCommander Hubby. . . ..â
âHaha. . . â
Although she was reluctant in his heart, she had already done it. Vivian could only admit her bad luck in her heart.
After breakfast this morning, she armed herself from head to toe. She put on a mask and sunglasses.
She also wore a round hat, covering half of her face.
No matter how familiar the person was with her, they still couldnât recognize who she was.
After all the preparations were done, she greeted her parents and left. Lucas had already applied for leave and was waiting downstairs. He drove his unsold truck and saw Vivian going downstairs.
Lucas got out of the car and went to greet her. He helped her get into the car. Then he drove to the bank.
It was impossible to give Felix one million yuan in cash, so Lucas asked for an account number for Felix yesterday and promised to call him today. As long as he saw the money, Felix would guarantee that this matter would be handled beautifully.
The two of them spent the entire morning, constantly transferring all the money. They looked at the account and saw that there was not a single cent left. Vivian felt indescribably depressed in her heart.
This one million was all in the past year. She had thought of all sorts of ways to get it from Julian. She had never thought that there would be a car accident and she had to spend all the money that she had spent so much effort to get her hands on.
What was she thinking at that time. She felt extremely depressed.
But no matter how depressed she was, she still had to take the money. Otherwise, that Felix would really start a fight with them. Then she could only go to jail.
âVivian, donât worry. Felix said he has received the money. He said that this matter will definitely be settled for us. You donât have to worry anymore.â
Lucas got off the car and called Felix before getting back into the truck. He looked at Vivian, who was beside him, and said with a smile.
Vivian immediately looked at him unhappily, âLook who you are looking for. Not only did you fail to complete the task, you even let us throw in a million. Now is the time when we are short of money. This time, we have all thrown in.â
âVivian, donât be too anxious. As the saying goes, it is not good to throw in a million yuan. This time it is Sarahâs child who is lucky. Next time she will not be so lucky.â
âWhat about next time? I donât dare. If another million comes out, weâll all go to jail.â Vivian directly retorted him in a bad mood.
âLook at what you said. We will definitely not find people so easily next time. Donât you think so? No matter what, isnât the child in Sarahâs womb a threat to our child?â After spending one million yuan, Lucas felt an indescribable heartache in his heart.
