A Contract Marriage With My Boss

Sarah didn't want to argue with him anymore, especially after he mentioned his mother and took her words over her again without answering her questions. She was tired of listening to Charles' excuses and didn't expect him to be so persistent to question her. She really hated talking with him like this, especially in public, so she shook off his restraining hand and said firmly. "Charles, I've already answered you, so please just stop, ok?"

However, Charles didn't let go of her. "Sarah, are you really that cold-blooded? I've done so many things for you, haven't I? Don't you realize that?"

Sarah didn't want to hear him and didn't want to continue arguing, so she shook his hands off more forcefully and strode away.

All she had wanted was to visit Mr. Thomas, but to her surprise, she had run into Christina and Charles, and the whole ordeal had started. Perhaps, it was inappropriate for her to visit Mr. Thomas under the current circumstances. Sarah couldn't understand why she and Charles always clashed with each other over the last few weeks, and no one was willing to compromise. She was tired of this situation, both physically and mentally.

She also felt very sleepy recently and found it hard to get up in the morning at times. She was taking care of Mr. Thomas every day, and to her annoyance, Christina and Emma used any chance they got to deliberately complicate everything for her, now even Charles was acting up against her to the point where he had physically hurt her. Sarah couldn't tolerate this anymore! She didn't want to argue with anyone anymore!

All she wanted was to be alone.

Charles shouted after her, "Sarah, Sarah!"

Sarah ignored him and started to walk even faster, but Charles quickly caught up with her and dragged her back by her hand.

Sarah hadn't expected him to use force on her and immediately started to struggle to free herself from him.

"Charles, let me go, what are you doing?" She yelled.

Charles didn't stop, but rather dragged her into an empty staircase. Daniel, who had been watching them anxiously, shouted, "Charles, what are you doing?"

Emma, who was standing behind them and watching everything with great satisfaction, followed them with the hopes of watching them continue to fight.

Once at the empty staircase, Charles let Sarah go. His powerful grip made her hand hurt, which enforced Sara's idea that he didn't care about her anymore since this was the second time he had hurt her today. Aggravated, she shouted at him, "Charles, what do you want to do?"

Noticing that Daniel and Emma were following them, Charles closed the door to be alone with Sarah. "Today, we must make things clear! What are you taking me for? Have you ever loved me?" Sarah thought his words ridiculous, shouldn't she ask him this? She hadn't questioned him about what he was doing with Emma, and she had done anything wrong, why was he questioning her? Frustrated, she sneered, "Charles, do you think you are in a position to ask me this?"

"Why am I not in a position to ask you this question? Don't forget, you are my wife!" Charles raged, glaring at her as if his eyes were going to spout fire.

Sarah stared back at him, ironically. "Charles, are you really treating me as your wife? You question me again and again whether I love you, but have you reflected on whether you love me? If yes, why are you always ignoring my feelings and taking Emma's side?

"What's wrong with Emma and me? She is my sister, we are innocent of each other. I've told you this so many times, why don't you believe me? Don't be such a jealous woman, ok?"

"Innocent?" Sarah burst into laughter before she continued. "If you two are innocent, then why hug each other? Why are you two so intimate at work? Why did you hurt me again and again just for her? Which one do you love? If you love her, then please let me go! I'm young, I can have my own life, I don't want to be entangled between you two!"

Charles became angrier at her accusations and said with a cold voice, "Sarah, do you really want to divorce? You love Daniel so much that you want to get rid of me and marry him already?"

Sarah wanted to laugh at him, but she knew it was meaningless to continue arguing. Judging him by the way he was talking now, Christina had influenced him this morning. It was impossible to explain anything right now.

Disappointed, she thought he really didn't love her, or if he did, he was a very selfish person who didn't trust her or care about her feelings. Having come to that conclusion, she sneered, "Yes, Charles, I can't stand your family anymore, I want a divorce! Dare you to divorce me now? If you're that angry, the best thing is to get rid of each other!"

"Sarah!" Charles shouted at her.

Sarah took the ring from her finger and said coldly. "This is yours, you can have it back now. We'll get a divorce, I won't beg you!"

"Sarah, are you crazy?" Seeing she was going to throw the ring away, Charles held her hand to stop her, resulting in a power struggle between them.

Sarah was struggling to try to throw the ring, and Charles was trying to stop her. She yelled out loudly, "Charles, stop, let go of me! Stop! Let me go!"

Daniel heard her voice from the other side of the door and started to hammer against the door with his fists. "Sarah, Sarah, are you ok? Charles, what are you doing to Sarah? Open the door!"

Meanwhile, Emma couldn't help laughing when she heard their quarrel. She couldn't be happier. If Sarah and Charles were fighting so hard, they would for sure split up and not forgive each other, which was good for her!

Suddenly, they heard Sarah groan out in pain as if she was hit by something. In excruciating pain, she said, "My belly... hurts... My belly is hurting..." Charles was stunned and didn't know what was happening. Thinking that she was pretending to make him stop, he called out her name coldly. "Sarah!"
