The Contract Marriage by Winter Love

Chapter 229 Thank You For Being Alive

"Mom, I am back."

Christian greeted Samantha and nodded to David and Jasmine. He then sat down next to Sarah and grabbed her

hand. He looked at her face nervously and then looked at her belly.

Christian felt relieved when he found she was really fine.

He looked at the doctor standing beside him and immediately stood up nervously. He looked at the doctor and

asked, "Doctor, how is my wife?"

The doctor smiled and said, "She has been unconscious for two days and has just woken up. She is still very weak.

Try to let her rest as much as possible. Don't talk too much to her."

"Okay. Thank you, doctor." Christian quickly nodded.

The doctor smiled and nodded as he left the ward.

Seeing that Christian had returned, David and Jasmine stood up as well. They looked at Sarah and Christian and

said, "Sarah, since Christian is back, we will go back first."

Knowing that the two of them had finally reunited, there must be a lot of things they wanted to say, so they did not

want to waste their time.

After greeting Christian and Sarah, the two of them left the ward. Samantha understood the pain of her son-in-law

and daughter's yearning and also used the excuse to leave the ward.

Once the three of them left, the room instantly quietened down. Christian held Sarah's hand tightly. "Wife, how is it

now?"

Sarah looked at Christian and smiled weakly. "I am fine now. Don't worry. Why are you back?"

"Such a big thing happened. How can I not come back? Once I heard that you had an accident, I was so scared that

my heart almost jumped out."

After getting the news from his father that his wife had a car accident, Christian immediately applied for leave from

the military chief. But because he had a very important document in his hands, he was delayed for two days before

rushing back.

Sarah looked at him again and smiled apologetically, "Hubby, I'm sorry. . ."

She really did not want him to worry, but she did not think that there would be a car accident.

Christian held her hand and kissed her heartbreakingly. His eyes landed on her injured forehead. He raised his hand

and gently stroked her hair. He then looked at her and asked slowly, "Does it still hurt here?"

Sarah shook her head and replied a little coquettishly, "It still hurt when you didn't come. When you came, it

stopped hurting. . ."

"So I have this kind of medical effect?" Christian heard his wife's words and smiled. He got up and kissed her lips.

"Baby, you scared Hubby to death. . ."

"I'm sorry. . ." She looked at Christian apologetically.

He held her little hand tightly and looked at her lovingly. "Silly, you were the one who got hurt in the car accident.

What did you say you were sorry? It was me who did not take good care of you. It was all my fault. . ."

Christian put her hand on his lips and kissed her continuously as he spoke. He hoped that he could reduce the pain

in her body a little.

"Hubby. . ." Hearing his words, her eyes turned red. From the moment she was born until now, she had never

experienced such a big thing.

During the time she was unconscious, she had thought about it. Was she really going to leave Christian and her

mother this time?

Luckily. . . She survived again. She saw the person she loved, and she safely returned to this world.

"You heard what the doctor said just now. He said you need to rest now. I will sit beside you. Don't think about

anything. Close your eyes and sleep for a while, okay?"

Christian looked at his wife's pale face and knew that she was still very weak.

"But. . . I want to talk to you. . ."

When she saw him just now, she was still in a huge surprise. She had been thinking about him every day these past

few days. She did not expect that he would appear beside her in the blink of an eye.

Sarah knew that it wouldn't be long before he would leave her again. At this time, how could she bear to close her

eyes and sleep?

"Alright, then I will give you a small exception. Tell me about Stephen first. How is he now?"

As he spoke, Christian looked at Sarah's protruding abdomen. He gently put his hand on it and gently caressed it.

"Stephen, Dad is back. Are you alright?"

Although he was talking with a smile in his face, in his heart he felt some unspeakable guilt.

If it wasn't for his incompetence of being a husband and a father. . . His wife and child wouldn't have suffered like

this.

"He's very good. Even the doctors praised his tenacious vitality. . ." Sarah replied with a bit of pride.

Christian listened to his wife and nodded. "Of course. How can my, Christian Cooper's, son be bad?"

Sarah heard his words and laughed out loud, "Can Military Commander Cooper be a little more modest?"

Military Commander Cooper looked at his wife and said with relief, "Baby, you are also very good. As good as our

Stephen. Hubby thanks you."

Sarah smiled. "I am already like this, and you still want to thank me?"

"Thank you for being alive. . ." Christian looked at his wife and said emotionally, "You don't know, when I heard this

news, I wanted to grow a pair of wings and fly back. But I had a very important document in my hand. I could not

rush back immediately, so I was delayed by two days. Baby, I'm sorry. When you needed me the most, I wasn’t by

your side."

This was the most uncomfortable part of Christian's heart. His status as a soldier could not make him like an

ordinary person who could put down the work at hand and left.

At most, others could risk of being fired and return home, but he could not.

Without the orders of his superior, he absolutely couldn't leave the army one step at a time.

"Actually, you really don't have to worry about me. Look at how many people in the family care about me. I heard

from Mom that your dad rushed to the hospital at the first moment. Even Julian and Aunt Daphne came. You saw

them when you came. Mr. David and Ms. Jasmine are also here. So many people are very concerned about me.

What's there to worry about?"

"No matter how many people there are, no one can replace me. . .”

Sarah looked at him and lightly blinked her eyes. She asked him curiously, "By the way, how did you know that I had

a car accident? Mom said she didn't call you. I don't think Dad told you either, right? Who told you that?" Sarah

could not figure it out.

Christian smiled. He did not want her to worry about him, so he answered mysteriously. "Your husband and you

have a mutual understanding. He suddenly took a nap and dreamed that you had an accident. When he woke up,

he immediately called Dad. But I didn't expect that something really happened to you."

"Really? You must be lying to me." Sarah did not believe Military Commander Cooper's words.

"Your husband is such an honest person, how could he lie to you? Actually, it was like this. I wanted to know a little

about the family’s situation, so I called my dad. But he stuttered when he was talking with me. Dad usually never

behaves like this unless he tries to hide something. I got suspicious and asked him. I only found out after I asked him

about it many times. It turns out that something happened to you. That's why I rushed back immediately."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. Think such a big matter happened. But I'm too far away from here. No one will tell me. Right?"

"Alright, I believe you. Anyway, you're already back. . ." Sarah did not continue to dig deeper. To her, Christian was

right beside her. This was the most important thing.

Christian looked at his wife and smiled. He reached out his hand to caress her face and said lovingly, "You are still

very weak. You have talked to me for so long. Now it is time for you to rest for a while. Close your eyes and sleep

for a while. I'll go back to the villa later, okay?"

Sarah heard his words and lightly blinked her eyes. Then she nodded in agreement. "Yes, okay. . ."

Her body was indeed very weak, especially her head that had unspeakable discomfort.

"Then you go to sleep first, I will leave after you fall asleep. . ."

"Okay. . ." Sarah looked at him and smiled. Then she obediently closed her eyes.

Christian sat beside his wife's bed for a while. Maybe Sarah was really too tired and too weak. After she closed her

eyes for a while, she fell asleep again.

This time, she knew that Christian was by her side. She knew that her favorite person had come back. Sarah slept

very soundly and very well.

He saw that his little wife had completely fallen asleep. Christian covered her with a blanket, then got up and walked

out of the ward.

He gently closed the door of the ward and saw his mother-in-law sitting in the waiting chair in the corridor. Christian

walked to his mother-in-law's side and sat down. "Mom, thank you for the hard work these two days. . ."

Samantha smiled and shook her head when she heard Christian words. "What is so hard to take care of my own

daughter? It's just these two days, sigh. . . I was worried beyond words. . ."

When Samantha remembered that her daughter had been in trouble until now, her eyes could not help but turn

red.

"Mother, this is what I owe Sarah. When she needs me the most, I can't stay by her side. . ." Christian answered

with a bit of shame.

Samantha looked at him and smiled. "Silly child, aren't you a soldier? Although I have never been a soldier and

don't know much about your army, but soldiers are different from others, I am very clear about this. When I agreed

to marry Sarah to you, I really didn't think that you would stand up one day. Even though Sarah suffered a little, but

when I saw that you and Sarah loved each other so much, I am satisfied.”

“Christian, you don't need to feel uncomfortable in your heart. I also know that although you have rushed back now,

you can't be like other people and accompany Sarah to recover from her injuries. The army needs you. You still

have to leave in a few days. But when I see you rushing back so quickly, Mom is already very happy in her heart."

"Mom. . ." Christian listened to his mother-in-law's words. He could not say a word.

After a long silence, he looked up at his mother and asked slowly, "Mom, can you tell me about the situation on that

day?"

"It was Monday. When Sarah went downstairs after breakfast, she smiled and said goodbye to me. I originally

wanted to go to the market after cleaning up at home, but I didn't expect after Sarah left for less than a half an

hour ago and I received a call from her phone. At first, I thought that Sarah had forgotten to take something. But

when the call connected, it was the voice of a man. He said he was a traffic policeman on duty and asked me what

my relationship with the owner was. Then he told me that Sarah got into a car accident. . . Sigh. . ."
