There was a trace of fatigue on Sara's delicate face. She had been through too much these days, just
like acting in a movie, but it was so real that she couldn't breathe.
As for Thompson, it was because she had scanty experience of life, and she trusted him too much. She
understood Jacob's anger. If he was not there at that time, she would have made a big mistake. Sara
didn't even dare to think about it.
Jacob not only hurt her, but also saved her. She didn't know whether she should be happy or not. She
didn't want to mention this name anymore. The owner of this name gave her too much insult and pain.
She hated Jacob in her heart. She wished they had an amicable parting, but they didn't, instead, they
tortured each other.
To be exact, Sara was tortured by Jacob.
On the way, Sara didn't say anything. Bess turned her head and glanced at Sara worriedly from time to
time.
When they got home, Sara got out of the car. Bess only said, "Call me if you need anything." Then she
marched off.
Carlos saw what was happening downstairs through the window upstairs. He couldn't wait to open the
door and wait for Sara to come up.
When Sara got home, she didn't look so haggard, but her sadness was still obvious.
In order not to make her father worry, Sara told him that she turned to Jacob, but it was useless. The
company was about to go bankrupt.
Carlos looked at his daughter with concern. If his daughter had to sacrifice her to maintain the
company, Carlos would rather go bankrupt.
"It doesn't matter, sweetie. A company had been running for such a long time, but it hadn't been doing
well, which meant that there was something wrong with it. This kind of problem was deeply entrenched,
not caused by one person. If a company was vigorous, it would run well even without depending on
anyone. Now, let nature take its course. I was too stubborn to see it clearly before. I'm sorry. "
Looking at her father who was sitting on the sofa and blaming himself, Sara realized that people had
always wanted to express their love to each other, but this kind of love was too heavy for someone to
bear in the end.
"Okay!" Sara agreed with her father. She worked so hard just because she didn't want her father to be
disappointed. If her father didn't struggle anymore, she would naturally feel relieved.
Sara had never blamed her father. Her father had lost too many things in his life. The stubbornness of a
person meant that he had been deeply hurt. It was not that Sara didn't want her father to remarry, but
his father said that he gave up because he didn't want Sara to be bullied.
She must be one of the reason he didn't want to remarry, and the second one might be Sara's
biological mother. The original beauty should have become an old woman. But she never came back to
see them. No matter how difficult the situation was back then, regardless how the father and daughter
lived now, she would never go back.
This was the pain in Carlos's heart forever, and so was Sara. Even if he didn't say it out, every time the
school held a parent's meeting in her school days, Sara would always be alone. Her father was a
workaholic, and her mother...
Even though Sara had never mentioned it, she had never forgotten it.
It was like she had planted a seed in her heart, always hoping that her mother would come back.
However, her hope was always accompanied by the pain of falling, making people feel nothing.
Even if she came back, so what? Wouldn't she add some inexplicable embarrassment or destroy more
happiness? Maybe it was the best for everyone not to come back. If she came back, and now her
father's company went bankrupt, it was hard to guarantee that she wouldn't abandon them for a second
time.
Some people had made their choices for the first time, and then for the second time. Trust was also
accompanied by a gradual loss of choice.
Looking at her aged father, Sara held back her tears. She couldn't cry. She didn't even cry when her
mother left in the heavy rain that night.
Would it be sadder if she thought of it now? She sighed at her life experience. No matter how hard she
cried, she had to bear it. This was life. Learn to force tears back, and this was maturity.
After comforting her father, the two stopped talking about their company and Sara's marriage. These
two problems had been besetting Carlos and Sara.
But today, it seemed that they had got the answer for the two problems.
All the problems were not problems. Only those who could not be put down, there was nothing that
could not be put down.
Sara had made up her mind that if her company went bankrupt, her father would retire directly and go
to work by herself to raise her father and children. There was no dead end, only people who could not
go on.
The two felt in silence. Carlos said he was tired and wanted to have a rest. He didn't go to the company
today.
It was difficult to persist, but it was more difficult to give up. But today, he had made up his mind. If his
company was closed, at least he didn't have debts, and he didn't have to work hard and run it well
every day.
Thinking of this, Carlos breathed a sigh of relief. He still had two rented houses under his name, so it
shouldn't be a problem for him to support his daily life. It depended on what Sara wanted to do in the
future.
Her life here could not change anything, but Sara's life had just begun, and it was in a vigorous
moment. There must be a road in front of the mountain, and when the boat arrived at the bridge, it
would be straight.
Carlos went back to his bedroom and closed the door.
In such a big room, they were sitting alone respectively. They didn't larment their life, but understood
each other. They didn't blame each other for what they had done to their life, but for understanding
each other. This was kinship.
After sitting on the sofa in the living room for a few minutes. Sara went back to her bedroom.
She felt extremely relaxed. It felt like she was taking off her burden. She was just like a condemned
prisoner. At the beginning, she knew that she had killed a person, so she was afraid. At last, when the
sentence was pronounced, she was finally relieved.
Jacob took Alice out and went straight to the Times Shopping Center. Jacob had already forgotten what
happened last time. But Alice still felt the same as yesterday. She had said that she didn't want to go to
the place for the rest of her life, because there was no better choice.
When they arrived at Times Shopping Center, Jacob parked his car. Alice and Jacob entered the
rotating glass door hand in hand. The huge shopping mall was in front of her. If her mood had been
ruined by the encounter with Sara that day, she wouldn't have been in such a bad mood today.
At this moment, Sara had been very anxious and had no mood to go shopping. Of course, Sara's
anxiety should be credit to Alice.
At that time, it was Alice who proposed to slash the price. Later, she suppressed the Carlos's company,
and it was also her idea that Jacob was not allowed to help the Sara. In fact, Jacob was not so vicious,
but he thought that her idea was good, so he ordered his underling did as per Alice's idea.
It was just an order, and there was naturally someone working for him.
Alice was quite satisfied with this matter. She was sure that Jacob didn't love Sara at all. Otherwise,
how could she bear to make Sara sad?
The only thing that Alice miscalculated was that day. Alice stopped thinking and went straight inside.
She decided to put aside those unhappy things for the time being. After all, she came here today to
have fun.
Times Shopping Center was indeed the most bustling. There were people coming and going, and the
decoration was warm and glorious. Each shop had its own features.
It was hustling and bustling. If you wanted to witness the prosperity of the city, it was best to check it
there. There was a dazzling variety of goods there.
Alice took Jacob into a clothing shop nearby. Women were always visual animals and always felt that
there was no clothes to wear in their wardrobe. Therefore, women were always keen on buying clothes.
Jacob went into the shop and sat on the rest seat, watching Alice choose.
"Miss, it's rare for a successful man go shopping with his wife. You are so lucky." The waitress flattered
Alice.
