A Contract Marriage With My Boss

Chapter 132: Your Dad Treat You, Will

On Sunday, Charles announced to everyone that he wanted to take Sarah out as they were starting to

feel bored from having been stuck at home for so long. Christina wasn't happy to hear them going out

alone, but Mr. Thomas encouraged them to have a day off to enjoy themselves. Thus they went out for

the day.

Once in the car, Charles said to Sarah. “I haven’t seen your smile for a long time, are you in a better

mood lately?”

Sarah covered her mouth with one hand and smiled, “I’m only pregnant, but suddenly everyone is

treating me so well, which makes me feel a little embarrassed.”

“This is your first pregnancy, and in our family, it's the first grandchild, which makes it extra special and

everyone is happy." Charles suddenly had a sad undertone in his voice when speaking of his father.

"And my dad…you know… he has been waiting for this for a long time now, and finally his dream came

true…” he sighed helplessly.

It was evident that Charles’s relationship with his father had improved and that they had become more

found and less indifferent toward each other. Sarah knew that Charles wanted to have a child to help

fulfill his father's dream. Although Mr. Thomas had ignored Charles in the past, he had tried hard to

make up for it by supporting Charles's marriage, and Charles had stopped complaining so much about

him.

However, they didn't have much time left to make up for the lost time given that Mr. Thomas’s condition

was not stable, and although he was feeling better now, everyone knew that his days were numbered.

Thinking of this, Sarah also felt sad and lowered her head, “I’m sorry for your dad. If I had gotten

pregnant earlier, he would be able to enjoy his grandchild by now.”

“Although he may not be able to see his grandchild, the fact that you are pregnant makes him happy

and content. When he was younger, he dedicated himself completely to his business and never cared

about his family; but now that he has become older, he became the loving father who cares about us. I

really don’t know whether to hold on to my grudge or to respect him."

“Your dad treats you well now, and he has done many good things for you, including investing in your

company.” Sarah reminded him.

Charles nodded. “I know, I’m not complaining about him now. It is useless to feel sad. Dad hopes that

we will have a happy life, we need to behave well in his presence to not make him worry.”

Sarah nodded in agreement but felt so impulsive lately. She really shouldn’t argue with Charles or think

about divorce anymore.

Charles stared silently in front of him with a melancholic expression, as if he was thinking about

something. Finally, he said in a low voice, “I have been thinking a lot lately. I did so many things wrong.

I shouldn’t trust my mom over you and neglect you! Sarah, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have let you be

wronged.”

It had never occurred to Sarah that Charles would apologize to her. Stunned, she stared at him.

Charles also looked at her with a sincere and honest expression, as if his words were coming from the

bottom of his heart.

Sarah started to feel emotional and moved. Lately, she had suffered many wrong things, and now

Charles finally seemed to realize it, and he apologized to her. He had treated her so well after knowing

that she was pregnant, so she should feel happy, shouldn’t she? But she felt like she wanted to cry, so

she quickly lowered her head to conceal her tears. “I also have done some wrong things, I’m sorry,

too!”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Charles suddenly grabbed her hand and said, “Whatever happened, it's in the past now. From now on,

we should focus on lifelong happiness together!”

Sarah nodded. Their eyes locked, and after a while, they finally both smiled. Charles said gently, “Well,

don’t be sad today. My cousin has a mansion in the suburbs where there are good fresh air and

beautiful natural plants. Let me take you there for the day to relax and take a look around!” He ignited

the car and started to drive.

Sarah never expected that the promise that they just gave to each other was only a promise and that it

may never actually come true.

Once they arrived at the mansion, they found that Charles’s cousin was not home, but he had

instructed his workers to receive Charles and Sarah on his behalf. The workers had been waiting for

them to arrive, showing them around the place.

It was a big mansion, divided into several sections, including a botanical garden, an area with exotic

animals, a golf course, a horse racing track, and a leisure area. There was a service bar, a swimming

pool, and other luxurious facilities to enjoy. Sarah thought that it had a feel of a farm. She was

surprised to see the place so extensive and luxurious.

“Your cousin… did he build this place just for entertainment? It's amazing!” She asked.

Charles smiled, “He's a wealthy man and can spend money on whatever he feels like. He built this

mansion for his private retreat, but he is planning to open it up as a retreat for other rich people to

come and relax. He knows that we are here today, so he closed it up for everyone else so you won't be

disturbed.”

Looking at the beautifully designed scene in front of her, Sarah felt excited and wanted to explore the

whole place. Holding Charles’s hand, she said, “Where shall we start to play first?”

Charles asked her, “What do you want to do?”

“Can you ride a horse? Cowboys are so handsome. Shall we go horse riding?”

Charles smiled. “Okay, but you have to promise me that you won't ride without my supervision. What if

something happened?”

Sarah nodded excitedly, looking forward to going horse riding, “I know, I know. Let’s go!”
