My Billionaire Husband

Lost in her thoughts, she heard someone coming behind her, walking towards her step by step.

Sarah hears the footsteps coming towards her. She was sure it was a man from the calm and steady rhythm. Was that Charles? Did Charles go and look for her?     

She couldn't help turning around, but the face she saw in the rain was not that of Charles as she so desperately wanted, but instead, it belonged to Daniel. He walked towards her in a hurry with an umbrella. Relieved to have found her finally, he exclaimed. "Sarah, I finally found you!" Then he strode up and put the umbrella on top of her head to protect her from the drizzling rain.     

Sarah looked at him, wondering why her heart was even emptier, and murmured, "Is it you?"     

"Yep, what's wrong? Are you not happy to see me?" Daniel looked at Sarah with a doubtful expression, frowning his forehead as he was worried about her. "Why did you run out in such a hurry? Mr. Thomas came out of the operating room, and when he couldn't see you, he kept asking for you!"

"Was Mr. Thomas out?" When she heard his name mentioned, Sarah became worried, "Is he okay?"     

"He's okay. The doctors took good care of him. Everything will be fine."     

"Did Mr. Thomas want to see me?" Sarah continued to ask.     

"Yes, I think you should go back and pay him a short visit," Daniel responded hurriedly.    

But Sarah was still hesitant, with an obviously upset and pale face. The scene of what had happened in the hospital kept replaying in her mind, and she asked with a sad tone. "Why did you come for me instead of Charles?"     

"Huh?" Daniel was confused at first, but when he saw her sad eyes, he immediately understood. He reached out and patted Sarah's shoulder in comfort. ���I was really worried about you, that's why I followed you. As for Charles… " He stopped mid-sentence.

"What's wrong with Charles?" Sarah asked.   

"Sarah, are you sure your relationship is stable?" Daniel asked her in such a solemn manner, avoiding to answer her direct question and looked deeply into her eyes, expressing great concern for her.     

Sarah saw the different colors in his eyes. Why was he so concerned about her? The answer was obvious. Maybe Charles had been right all along, Daniel did have some more profound feelings for her.     

Sarah lowered her head. No matter why Daniel had come to find her, whether it was for the sake of Mr. Thomas or for himself, whether she broke up with Charles or not, she was married and couldn't be close to him. With determination, Sarah answered quickly. "It's none of your business. No need for you to worry."

Daniel grabbed her shoulder but immediately seemed to loosen it, and then suddenly seized her hands. "Sarah, you love him so much, but you'll regret it. If you see what Charles did, you'll regret having high hopes for him!"     

"What did Charles do?" Sarah couldn't help looking up when she asked that.

Daniel looked at her and did not know what to say. He finally heaved a sigh and said in a low voice, "You'd better go back and have a look!"     

Sarah lowered her head, seemingly thinking of something, then passed Daniel silently.      

"Sarah, where are you going?" Daniel inquired.      

Sarah stopped, but she didn't turn around. After thinking for a long time, she just said, "I will have a look!" She couldn't blame Mr. Thomas for what had happened, and even though she had broken the relationship with Christina and with Charles, she couldn't make Mr. Thomas sad, mainly when he was so sick. She had made up her mind to return to the hospital and look for herself.

She thought she would see Charles after arriving back at the hospital, but she found that Charles and Emma had left. Maybe they had gone back to work. Only Christina was in the room with Mrs. Thomas, she heard them talking about their family problems, including about Charles. Christina kept complaining to her husband.

Sarah stood at the door and listened for a while, feeling calm. After what she had gone through today, her heart was dead, and she had managed to calm herself down on the bridge. Hearing that Christina was accusing her, she was unwilling to walk in and defend herself, because if Mr. Thomas believed his wife, it was useless for her to explain anything.  

She still felt confused and wondered why Christina insisted on further making troubles for her as if she was her enemy from a previous life. Charles had supported her in the past, but now he also had turned his back on her. The more she thought about the whole situation, the more upset she became. Sometimes, all she wanted was to give up. She was unwilling to strive for anything, feeling physically tired, and just wanted to let them go.

Sarah suddenly turned around and was about to leave when Daniel, who stood behind her and saw her decadent looks, suddenly said, "Sarah, I have noticed something these days. Why do you have to subject yourself to them? You are a free person. Given how tired you are, don't force yourself to continue."     

Sarah answered quietly, "I know you mean good for me. The Thomas Family is so complicated, and they don't welcome me. Maybe I better leave early before it's too late, but it's easier said than done. It's not that I can leave even if I want to!"     

"You can, but you can't let go of Charles!" Daniel said sharply, looking straight at her like a fire that had suddenly woke up inside him.

Sarah looked at him as if she suddenly recognized something. You can, but you can't let go of Charles! Was that the truth? She's been hesitating these days. Was it really all for Charles? Sarah admitted that she loved Charles, that she always had been deeply in love with Charles. But she knew that she was stubborn and wouldn't allow herself to be wronged easily. She had tolerated being mistreated by Christina and Emma because Charles, so could she really not let go?
