The Contract Marriage by Winter Love

Chapter 43 I Am Sorry

Maybe Sarah was really tired, or maybe she knew this person was not a threat to her. She actually fell asleep after

closing her eyes for a while.

When she woke up, it was already past five o’ clock in the afternoon.

The moment she opened her eyes, what entered her eyes was a side profile with a straight line. At this moment,

Christian’s eyes were closed and he looked like he was still sleeping.

Sarah wanted to sit up from the bed. She suddenly found that one of her legs was actually resting on Christian’s

body!

Her face turned red, and she carefully wanted to move her leg away. But just as she lifted her leg, Christian opened

his eyes. He was looking at her with a smile on his face.

Sarah awkwardly retracted her legs. She was a little embarrassed. “Cough cough, I’m sorry. I was not good at

sleeping… Did it hurt you?”

Christian looked at her and replied slowly, “It’s fine, I didn’t feel anything anyway.”

Hearing him say this, she felt even more apologetic in her heart. “I really didn’t mean it!”

She did not expect to have such an ugly appearance on her first day of marriage.

“I know.” Christian answered as he sat up from the bed and looked at her. “Come and help me!”

“Oh…” Sarah immediately walked in front of him and squatted down to help him put on his shoes. She then helped

him sit in the wheelchair.

“Do you think I am a little troublesome? In the next three months, you might have to take care of me like this.”

Christian tidied his clothes and looked up at her.

Sarah smiled, “It is not a difficult matter. I still have strength. Don’t worry.”

“Then help me get a basin of water. I will wash my face.”

“Okay!” Sarah nodded and went to the bathroom to get a basin of cold water. She took a towel and walked out. She

first covered his legs with a thin blanket before putting the basin over.

After the two of them washed up, Sarah changed into a red dress with a red ribbon. Her slightly hot curly hair was

adorned with pearl hair clips.

Christian felt very satisfied after seeing her like this and Sarah pushed him out of the bedroom.

When the two of them entered the living room, the people from the Cooper Family were basically chatting on the

sofa. When they saw them walk out, Daphne looked at Sarah and could not help but sigh.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. In the past, I never noticed Sarah when I looked at her every day. Our Sarah is really a beauty. After

dressing up properly, she looks like a princess. She’s too beautiful!”

When Julian heard his mother’s words, his gaze was also tightly locked onto Sarah. A complicated light flashed

through his eyes.

Benjamin and Ethan smiled and nodded as they watched the two of them sit on the sofa.

“Sarah, you must be exhausted this afternoon, right?” Benjamin first looked at Sarah and asked with concern.

“Grandpa, I am not tired!” Sarah smiled and sat beside the sofa, next to Christian’s wheelchair.

“How can you not be tired? You have been standing there for so long. There is still a banquet at night. You and

Christian don’t have to attend. Rest well at home!”

Ethan looked at Sarah and smiled as she took the conversation. When he saw that Sarah had finally become his

daughter-in-law, he felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

“Is there a banquet tonight?” Sarah thought that the wedding banquet would end at noon, but she did not expect

that there would be one at night.

“Yes, some guests did not rush over at noon, so they will attend the banquet at night.” Ethan explained with a smile.

“It’s inconvenient for Christian to move. Anyway, I’m not tired. I’ll go!” She did not have any other thoughts. She

just felt that this was a matter between her and Christian after all. It would not make sense to let others represent

her.

Daphne on the opposite side immediately nodded her head in agreement. “I think it will work. If the two of them did

not go, no matter what, it doesn’t make sense.”

Benjamin looked at Christian, “Christian, what do you think?”

Everyone looked at Christian. They knew he had a bad temper. If he didn’t agree, no one else could make the

decision.

“Sure!” Christian looked at Sarah and nodded slightly.

Worried that Sarah would be hungry, Daphne asked the maid to make something for her to eat before going to the

hotel. After Sarah ate, Ethan and the others brought her to the hotel.

Once the car drove out of the Villa, Julian stood up from the sofa and took the car keys out.

Christian looked at his brother’s back, and his eyes instantly narrowed.

When Ethan’s Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the hotel, he found Julian’s car also arrived. The few of them got out

of the car. Sarah followed behind her father-in-law and walked towards the hotel lobby.

Just as they were about to enter, Julian stopped them.

“Dad, you are the Chairman of Cooper Group. It is not appropriate for you to appear in this kind of occasion tonight.

Since Big Brother is not here, let me take Sister-in-law there!”

Ethan frowned and looked at his son, “You? What is your identity?”

Daphne was worried that they would pick a fight again and ran over to smooth things. “Hey, didn’t Julian also have

good intentions? I don’t think it’s good for a chairman like you to represent you son.”

“Dad, I can tell which is more important than the other. Don’t worry, I just don’t want to lose the face of Cooper

family. After all, some of them are the business partners of Cooper family.” Julian immediately clarified himself.

“No! I can give you anything else but this matter! Sarah, let’s go!” Ethan didn’t agree. He brought Sarah into the

hotel lobby.

Julian looked at their backs and clenched his fists tightly.

“Hey, what are you doing here? If that cripple saw this, he might go crazy! Hurry up and leave!” Daphne patted her

son’s shoulder as she finished speaking and followed closely behind in her high heels.

There were not many people at the banquet and Sarah was still able to deal with them. After she toasted a few

glasses of wine, Ethan let the driver take her home.

When they walked out of the hotel, Julian chased from behind. After giving a few instructions to the driver, the

driver returned to the hotel.

“What did you say to him?” Sarah looked at him speechlessly.

Julian held her arm and took her to his car. “I told him I would send you back. Let’s go, I won’t do anything to you!”

As he spoke, he brought her to the car door. He reached out and opened the door wanting to stuff her into the car.

“Julian! Let go of me!” Sarah had little strength, so she was accidently dragged to the side of the car by him. Just as

he was about to push her into the car, she grabbed the car door and shouted at him.

“I am only sending you back! Quickly go in, listen to me!” Seeing that her reaction was so strong, he suddenly

reached out and hugged her waist, wanting to shove her into the car.

“Julian! Let go of me, you bastard!” Sarah shouted. A deep fear suddenly struck her heart and Sarah was

somewhat afraid.

A green off-road vehicle quickly stopped by the side and the window quickly rolled down. A deep and powerful voice

roared behind the two of them, “Julian! Let her go!”

Julian’s movement froze, and then he quickly turned his head, just in time to meet Christian’s blood-thirsty eyes.

He immediately let go of Sarah and wanted to explain, “Big Brother, I…”

Once she body was freed, Sarah turned around and ran over. She opened the car door and sat beside Christian.

“Drive!” Christian looked at Julian with a look of killing intend and rolled up the window coldly. The car quickly

started up and self.

“Why are you here?” His sudden appearance made her feel indescribably grateful. Julian seemed to have lost

control of himself today. If he really took her away, she did dare imagine what would happen tonight.

Christian looked at her. Her hands were slightly trembling because of this sudden situation. He took her hands and

held it tightly in his palms. “I was a little worried about you, so I came…”

When she heard him say this for the first time, Sarah’s mischievous personality came up. She looked at him and

joked. “I thought you were a stone-hearted person. It turns out that you are also worried about the others!”

Christian looked at her thoughtfully. “Do you think I am cold-hearted?”

Sarah immediately smiled at him. “You said it yourself. I didn’t say it!”

Christian saw her expression and also smiled faintly. He was silent for a few seconds and looked at her. “Were you

scared just now?”

“A little bit!” Sarah nodded. Julian’s actions really scared her. She had been in love with him for nine years, but he

had never been as excited as he was today.

“I’m sorry…”

If he could stand up, he definitely would not let Julian off easily!

Sarah heard Regimental Commander Cooper, who had always been cold and emotionless, actually say sorry to her.

She could not accept it and looked at him. “You are not the one who did something wrong. Why are you apologizing

to me?”

“If my legs were healthy, he would not bully you like this!”

Sarah immediately smiled when she heard him blame himself. “I am fine! Anyway, he bullied me for nine years. It

would be fine even if he bullied me again! You don’t have to worry, I’m really fine now…”

Christian looked at her thoughtfully. He fell silent again.

When the two of them arrived at the villa, she received a call from Ethan. He had just heard from the driver that

Julian had picked up Sarah. He was worried that something would happen to the two of them, so he called to ask

him. He only relaxed when he found out that she had safely returned home.

Benjamin had not slept yet, so he chatted with Christian and Sarah for a while. The old man knew that the two of

them must be very tired today, so he let them return to their room to rest.

Once the two of them entered the room, Sarah helped Christian take off his shoes and socks first. She stood up with

the socks and walked into the bathroom.

“Wait for a while. I will fetch a basin of water for you to wash your feet!” Actually, she had never thought about this

before. In her own house, she had never washed her mother’s feet. But before she walked to the door, she heard

Christian’s voice from behind.

“No need! I want to take a bath!”

Sarah looked back at him in surprise. She blinked a few times and did not reach. “Take a bath? Jayson is not here.

How are you going to take a shower?”

Christian looked at her indifferently and did not speak.

“You don’t want me to wash it for you, do you?”
