Chapter 35 If You Were A Man, I Would Marry You
They had never revealed their feelings to each other, but they knew each other well. This was probably the most precious part of kinship.
"Dad. It's not your fault. You can't think so. It's all my choice. No one forced me. I volunteered to do everything. It's my fault that I didn't choose the right person. It's not your fault. " Sara said firmly.
Sara's happiness was Jacob. Even Jacob didn't love her. Did her happiness change? If you can't get it, it will exist. Love won't disappear.
Carlos clenched her fists and looked miserable. People's pain always came from the anger of their incompetence.
He waved her hand, indicating beckoning Sara to go out.
For Sara, the pain in his life was direct, but such ending was an indirect pain to Carlos. Besides, the pain didn't come all of a sudden. It was just that she didn't want to go on a blind date.
Sara went back to her office. She couldn't fall down for her father's sake.
In the afternoon, Sara had been concentrating on studying the cooperation contract between her and Ethan, which required both parties to see clearly the terms of the contract. Even if the cooperation was successful, Jacob was still an important partner of Carlos's group. He could only take it step by step and gradually let the company run independently.
If she didn't cooperate with Jacob, her father's company wouldn't go bankrupt immediately, but it would come to a deadlock and be on the verge of bankruptcy. If Jacob still wanted to suppress his company, she would have to go bankrupt. Sara couldn't let her father's lifelong efforts go in vain. Besides, she had sacrificed so much.
At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, it was time to get off work. Sara turned on her phone and checked the WeChat.
Bess sent a message, "How are you doing these two days, Sara?"
"The situation is worse than before. Both of our parents have known that we have divorced and they knew Emily's existence. Alice is pregnant. "
After editing the message, Sara sent it. She stood up and thought it was time to go home.
As soon as she put the phone in her bag, it rang.
Noticing it was from Bess, Sara answered, "Hello, Bess."
"Sara, are you in the company? Have you had dinner yet? Let's meet and talk. I'll pick you up. " Bess said anxiously.
"Well, okay. I have planned to go home just now." Sara had no choice but to stay in the office to wait her.
20 minutes later, Bess called, "Come downstairs, Sara. I'll take you to eat something delicious downstairs."
After saying okay, Sara hung up the phone.
Bess was already 26 years old. And she was still single. In the final analysis, she was too picky. After all, there were very few men that could attract Bess's attention. Moreover, Bess's family was rich, unless the man was from a family of equal social rank. It was rare to meet men with equal social status. Even if they were, they were affluent young playboys. 'Sure enough, it's not easy to find a mate if a woman is too good, ' Sara sighed.
Sara went downstairs slowly. Bess was downstairs. Bess tied her hair into a bun, looking a little nifty and younger. She was wearing a light gray dress with a waist pinched, and a pair of white high-heeled shoes of 5 centimeters high, which made her look refreshing.
Even Sara couldn't help but sigh. No wonder Bess had a good taste and had a variety of styles. Didn't she deserve to be picky?
Sara blinked.
Bess rolled her eyes at Sara and said, "Sara, don't exaggerate. You are a beauty and you have to pretend that you haven't seen a woman before."
Embarrassed, Sara coughed and said, "I don't usually see you in dress! So I take a few more looks. "
"That's sheer nonsense! I usually wear dress. It's because you don't pay much attention to me!" Bess complained.
"Forget it. Get in the car. What do you want to eat tonight?"
"I ate Sichuan cuisine at noon. I felt that I ate more than before... I'm not hungry yet. What do you want to eat? For me, any food is ok." Sara shrugged.
Bess turned on the car music and a light music with flowing water came.
Leaning against the passenger seat with her eyes closed, Sara said in a soft voice, "What's this music? Very relaxing."
"I downloaded it to soothe your mood. Got it? Nature's Path. " Bess said happily.
"Well, I like it. It sounds so quiet. " There was a hint of laziness in Sara's voice.
In no time, the two arrived at a western restaurant. Bess wanted to eat steak.
There were two people sitting at the table. One was lively and active, and the other was gentle and elegant.
"Hello, two steaks, both well-done. A bottle of Bin95 Grange red wine." Bess looked up at the waitress and said.
The waitress had thought that the two didn't know much about steak, but she didn't expect Bess's order of red wine suddenly shocked her. She couldn't help but think, 'The world of the rich is really difficult to understand.' The waitress bowed respectfully, "Okay, miss. Please wait a moment."
Before the steak was served, Bess remembered the important thing that she came to see Sara. "By the way, Sara, what's wrong with you now?"
Putting away the relaxed look on her face, Sara sat upright and said, "My father found out that I was divorced for no reason. Jonathan of the Shi clan secretly took intimate photos of Jacob and Alice. Then Michael held a family meeting, and Jacob was forced to tell them that he had divorced. Besides, Alice was pregnant, so I only wanted to make a statement that I had divorced". I just announced it to the media. "
"Although they will know it sooner or later, it's embarrassing for them to know it now. What's wrong with Alice's pregnancy?" Bess frowned, holding her right hand with her left hand and habitually pinching it.
"I don't know. I don't know if it's an excuse or the truth." The sadness in Sara's eyes was hard to tell.
"Listen to me, Sara. If you can't go back, you must make up your mind to find your own happiness. " Bess said seriously.
Sara nodded. Did everyone mean it? She didn't want be reliant on Jacob. But in her eyes, she didn't want anyone else except Jacob.
Love was so rare in one's whole life. She could only love one person in her whole life.
The beefsteak and red wine were served. Bess poured a glass of wine for each.
"Sara, in fact, I don't want to say these words. But today, I still want to tell you. I don't care whom you divorce, if it weren't for you, who the hell did I know him? I just want you to know that you should love yourself well. Only when you are good, can I be happy. If you are not good, I will not be happy either. People were always like this. If they didn't get along well with each other, they can break up and find their own happiness. Do you understand? " With a glass of wine in her hand, Bess looked determined.
"I understand, Bess. Thank you for being with me all the time. Please give me some more time and I will adjust myself. Don't worry. " With a goblet in her hand, Sara looked at the red wine in the glass, which was shining with a beautiful color. She said it to Bess, or likely to himself. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
"Okay. Eat the steak quickly. Don't think about these troubles. Everything will be fine. " In fact, Bess was not good at comforting people, but when she saw the depressed look on Sara's face, she had to be calm and speak out her innermost thoughts.
Moved, Sara cut a piece of steak and handed it to Bess.
After having steaks, Bess insisted on driving Sara home in person. When Sara got out of the car, she teased Bess, "Why aren't you a man? If you are, I will definitely marry you."
Bess smiled, "My dear Miss, don't be ridiculous. If I were a man, I must be a perfect man. At that time, there were many people competing with you. Maybe you will not be the one marry me."
Sara rolled his eyes at Bess and said, "Look at you. Are you puffing up with pride when I praise you?"
Bess laughed like a silver bell, "Go back, my lady. I have to go home now. Bye-bye. Call me whenever you need me."
Waving her hand, Sara walked into the villa.
